And we open this week with Jeremy back at the main island waiting for the rest of the tribe to return. He's not happy that Tyson's gone. The rest aren't happy that Jeremy skipped out. Ben thinks the five can get out Jeremy easily. Jeremy tries to convince Ben that Ben's a bigger target. Jeremy wanted Tyson there as a shield. Kim and Michelle are annoyed that they were left out of the vote and worry that they're next to be picked off. Tony talks about how he couldn't go look for idols to avoid people being paranoid. Now he's looking for idols. Nick shows up while Tony is looking for the idol. Tony sends Nick off to look at the well. Tony finds the idol. He's very, very happy. Sarah makes clothes for her tribemates. The girls put on a fashion show. Tony wants to get Jeremy out. Tony pretends he's with Jeremy and his group to blindside them. Jeremy thinks him, Michelle, Denise, Kim, and Tony are solid. Kim pretty much figures out what Tony is doing and says he's the biggest enemy right now.
Meanwhile, out on the Edge of Extinction. Tyson's saying that Adam will have a hard time after the game. Natalie and Parvati find a wine bottle with a clue in it. They go looking for an answer. They figure out it's under the bed. Parvati leads others away while Natalie searches. They get the power to deprive someone of a vote and the right to prevent them from playing for immunity at tribal if that person won't pay a bribe. It sounds like they'll blackmail Tony.
Tony's very happy to find a scroll in his bag and he thinks it'll be an advantage. The first word he reads is extortion and he's happy until he realizes he's the one being extorted. They want six fire tokens and Tony only has three. He wants to borrow tokens from his allies. Michelle doesn't have any fire tokens. Tony sends Michelle to see if Jeremy will give him some. Jeremy is willing to give Tony one fire token. Nick agrees to give him one. Ben agrees to give him one also. Tony has the six tokens he needs.
Time for the immunity challenge. They have to balance a statue on the end of a long pole while slowly moving farther away. Kim is out first. Denise is out. Michelle is out. Sarah is out. Nick is out. Sophie is out. Ben is out. Jeremy is out. Tony wins immunity and gets two fire tokens! Tony's very happy. He can repay Nick and Ben and vote out Jeremy.
Time for scheming back at camp. Tony's very happy. Kim says she didn't want Tony to win, but it makes him a bigger target. They plot to split the votes between Jeremy and Michelle in case someone uses an idol. Jeremy thinks they're voting out Ben. Tony thinks blindsiding Sophie makes the most sense. He goes to Nick who agrees to go along with it. Tony lets Jeremy in on the plan. Jeremy wants Ben gone though. Jeremy thinks Tony is wrong. Tony's desperately trying to save Jeremy but Jeremy seems not to be buying what Tony is selling.
Time for Tribal Council. Jeff talks about all of the stuff played at the last tribal. Jeremy says everyone is telling half-truths. There's lots of talk about resumes and credit/blame. Time to vote. Nothing gets played this week. The votes are Jeremy, Michelle, Jeremy, Michelle, Jeremy, Sophie, Sophie, Sophie, and Sophie. Sophie bites the dust! Sophie left with an idol. She leaves her tokens to Sarah and Kim. And that's it for this week.
They're advertising for new players so we'll likely have them resuming filming sometime over the summer. I'm sorry to see Sophie go. I liked her. I guess I'll root for Kim now.
Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!
