Survivor: Winners at War Episode 2

aHoly crap! What an episode. So far, really good. I love this season so far. First off, the Edge of Extinction. Amber is with Natalie there, two good winners, both stuck after being voted out, waiting to get back in. Meanwhile at Sele, Rob gets the fire token, so he figures out very quickly what probably happened. His wife got the boot and now he has to step up his game even more. Meanwhile, Ben helped Denise find an idol, building their alliance together. But, the idol has a bit of a twist. It has two halves and Denise must give half to another person. What made Ben more trustworthy to Denise is he didn't ask for it, he suggested getting someone in with them using the idol. So, Denise went back to her ally, Adam, who was ecstatic, until he found out that Ben was in on it. And then, Denise considered giving the other half to Parvati, who definitely would not be a trustworthy suggestion. But overall, Adam got the other half successfully.

Back at Dakal, Yul used a strategy to collect a type of fruit, he got it and gave it to Kim. Kim, realizing she was still on the outs, went out to find the idol, she found it, got the same twist as Denise and then rehid the idol as soon as Tony and Nick showed up out of the blue. Though, she then showed it to Sophie who she agreed to give the other half to. Here's the problem, Sophie wants Kim out, so showing her may have harmed her game even more. Kim showing Sophie the idol may be this season's equivalent to JT giving Russell the idol in Heroes vs. Villains. May just be a bad move for Kim. And at the Edge of Extinction, Amber and Natalie searched for the next clue to help someone in the game and maybe help themselves get back in. Long story short, Amber didn't find anything but Natalie did and because of it, she sold Jeremy an advantage that lets him leave tribal council before the vote, letting himself be safe. Back to Dakal, Tony made a ladder that should've broke. He definitely was lucky but he got papayas from it, showing he may be crazy but he goes all out. Good job, Tony. Oh, and Cops R Us rejoined up, hoping to stay in hiding but maybe stay strong this time.

At the immunity challenge, Rob saw that it was Amber that got voted out, seemed to lose a lot of his faith and happiness, just by seeing the look on his face throughout the whole challenge. And it also showed as Dakal defeated Sele in a blowout. Sure, Sele caught back up at first when they got back and tied it at the puzzle. But then, Rob and Denise took a little bit of time and Dakal had their tribe cheering for Sandra & Sophie, who did the puzzle for them and Sele had some extra voices make some suggestions. And overall, Dakal won, Sele lost.

Before Tribal Council, the plan started out with the old schoolers going after Jeremy, who was already on the outs or Ben, who is just unpredictable. Of course, Danni saw Parvati, Ethan & Rob talking about it and assumed that she was the target. So, she went to Ethan and Ben and in front of Ben, mentioned the old school alliance, which freaked out Ben. Then of course, Danni went to Rob, wanting Parvati out. Naturally, Parvati found out and the plan become to take out Danni. However, Jeremy, Michele & Adam saw this and thought that they could possibly turn the game around, go with Danni and blindside Parvati, stealing control of the tribe from the "godfather", Boston Rob. The question though was, was it the right time to make a move? Then again, is there a wrong time to make a move? So, it'll be interesting to see who gets the boot tonight.

At Tribal Council, the conversations went completely nuts. First, the tribe talking about relationships, old school vs new school and then flipped, turning into Ben telling everyone what he found out, how he saw the old schoolers getting paranoid and that made everyone else paranoid. It became this huge conversation about paranoia and old school vs new school. It just turned wild and people started whispering to each other. I figured maybe Ben's going home now. The whole thing has just blown up. But ultimately, the new schoolers decided not to flip yet and the tribe unanimously voted out Danni Boatwright, sending her to the Edge of Extinction, as she bequeathed her fire token to Denise.

Overall, this has been a very wild but fun episode of Survivor tonight with an ending that I didn't expect as much. Can't wait to see what happens next week when Adam & Denise consider making a big move, Yul tells Sandra of Tyson's possible duplicity and Tony carries a shark with his bare hand.
