Wow! Another great episode of a so far fantastic season of Survivor. First off, while somewhat sad, it was a good move to get rid of Keith. Luckily, he chose the right choice to go to the Edge of Extinction with Reem. This then convinced Reem to stay to make sure that Keith is ok. After they had some time to catch up, they got a map to climb up to the top of their island only to find a little bit of rice, finding out that each day, they will have to go through that long strenuous hike for just a little bit of rice, thus showing that they will have to work hard if they want to stay. At the reward challenge, the tribes competed for comfort or chickens in a battle where they had to get through a small maze with a cart, fill it with bags, finish the maze, build a slingshot, and knock out the targets using the slingshot and the bags. While it was a close fight, Manu won their first challenge! However, it came at a cost. Wendy injured herself.

Back at Manu, Wendy had to be carried into camp due to her injury with her tribemates being sympathetic towards her. However, she didn't approve of them wanting to kill a chicken and eat it, despite at home eating meat. She even asked Rick to be an accomplice to her releasing the chickens, which he quickly refused. Meanwhile at Kama, Victoria and Ron talked about taking out the returnees, though they were quickly caught by Joe. Joe then spoke with allies Aubry & Aurora about the situation. This caused Aubry to look for and, on her third season, finally find a hidden immunity idol. Back at Manu again, Wendy still didn't want to kill the chicken, even announcing to Wardog that she'll become a vegetarian. Wardog then responded in a confessional that if she ever eats meat again, he won't even communicate with her outside the game. Her being upset over not wanting to kill the chicken, her leg, and her vote against Kelley at the previous tribal council made Kelley really want Wendy out as soon as possible.

At the immunity challenge, four members had to swim, carrying three other members on a boat to a tower where they will collect keys, then be carried by the swimmers to a chest, collecting puzzle pieces and building a ship's wheel puzzle. Manu led most of the challenge—however, David & Kelley then struggled with the puzzle, giving Kama another immunity win sending Manu to their third consecutive tribal council. In a confessional, David confessed that according to what he calls his "Survivor Spidey Sense," he sees it as the perfect opportunity to take out Kelley Wentworth.

Back at camp, Wendy steals the flint so they can't cook the chickens. So, after looking for the flint, most of the tribe sends David & Rick to see if Wendy knows where it is. What they don't realize is David & Rick go and make a plan with Wendy to blindside Wentworth. Then, they come back and David later on tells Chris that it's Wentworth and not to tell Wardog. So, Chris then tells Wardog that it's Wentworth, making Wardog want Chris out. So he tells Kelley who agrees that Chris should go. Wardog then talks to Rick about blindsiding Chris, who nods and agrees, realizing that he & David could go either way, Chris or Wentworth, with Wendy not even being an option anymore. It'll be very interesting to see which player gets blindsided.

At Tribal Council, the tribe began to talk about the chicken incident, the constant losing, and then David turned it by talking about the possibility of blindsiding a social threat, which surprised everyone. Then, the tribe talked about strategy, playing smart this early on, and who may or may not go. Ultimately, while Wentworth did receive votes, looks like Chris talking to Wardog about blindsiding Wentworth led to his boot. Looks like loose lips really do sink ships, don't they, Chris? Overall, this was an amazing episode of Survivor and I can't wait to see what happens next week when Wendy releases the chickens and the game gets even crazier with a tribe swap into three tribes. This is gonna be good. #Survivor #SurvivorEdgeofExtinction #ByeChris #Blindside #LooseLipsSinkShips #WentworthTheThreat #SurvivorSpideySense #DavidTheTrueMVP #SoFarAwesomeSeason #SaveTheChickens #WendyIsGreat #EdgeofExtinction #TrulyAtTheEdgeofExtinction
