Scrambled Dudes
Updated 2007-03-26 17:00:00
The tribes don't merge this week, but they do reshuffle, and the new Moto -- delightfully -- includes Michelle, Yau Man, and Earl, who are the only remotely likable members of Ravu. They wind up with Stacy, Cassandra, and Boo, meaning that tribe is 3-3 women/men. Over at Ravu, however, it's all boys: Edgardo, Alex, Dreamz, Anthony, Mookie, and Rocky. Lisi heads to Exile Island. The dynamic quickly emerges that Boo is sort of the odd idiot out at Moto, while Anthony is lost in the shuffle of buff dudes (and delusional "buff" "dudes") over at Ravu. It's nice to see Earl, Michelle, and Yau Man finally get some food, although it turns out that Rocky, Anthony, and Mookie also get food. To some degree, the Ravu people suck in addition to their conditions, at least once you factor in the starvation, because when the Moto guys get there, they help track down some fish, so there's not so much starving. The immunity challenge has the teams making their way through a very uncomfortable maze, and Moto -- the new Moto -- takes the prize, which probably saves Boo from being booted. At Ravu, it seems like the boys of Moto have very little patience for Rocky and his constant "he's a giiiiiirl" slams at Anthony, but they can't quite pull it together in time. So Anthony does indeed go home, although, in the process, Rocky makes such a colossal jackass out of himself that it seems like his departure must be close at hand, which is a good thing. Because at this point? If he doesn't get voted off soon, I'm going to start fast-forwarding when he's talking.
