Thoughts:
- I like Ben. He's big and strong, but he is genuine. I like his sincerity. It's laughable that gamebots like Joe got shot down the moment he brought up the marine corps thing.
- Survivor is about making friends and definitely not making enemies. Joe buried himself further at the bottom for triggering Ben the way he did. If he had gotten to know Ben a little deeper, he would not have made that lie in the first place. This is an example why humanity comes first in the game of Survivor than strategy.
- JP is still a placeholder of the season.
- I enjoy the tussle for the idol, but I HATE THAT RYAN HAS THE IDOL
- The I like the reward wrinkle. Hate the idol clue beneath the plate.
- The ending is just messed up. How did not one person realize there were only 10 votes read instead of 11?
- I was hoping Joe would go home and not Desi.
- Based from the teaser for next week, Ryan has succumbed to another gamebot illness: He can't help himself from telling people he has the idol. You see, this is the one thing I like about him: Whenever he sucks.
