Jackets and Eggs - One castaway must scramble after being on the wrong side of the vote; another turbulent storm puts a sudden halt to the game.
Enjoy the show!

This season really has been an unlucky one so far. So much bad weather, injuries, etc... Hopefully the time spent off island boosts morale of some of the more depressed players. I want to see more scheming, less moping!

That was a bad storm if they had to evacuate...the camps are trashed.

"She has a Master's in Ungraciousness." Talking about Natalie, of course, who insists they cook all the eggs they just won immediately.

My husband and I were arguing about fresh eggs and how long they can be left out. I thought it was a week or so and he thought it was a day or so. I just looked it up and you can keep fresh eggs at room temp for a month at least! Wow. They should've listened to Lyrsa.

Yeah, back in the day they just left the eggs out on the counter. I don't know why people think they go bad immediately if not refrigerated...
Christian was pretty impressive at the challenge!

I usually root for the older ladies, because, I'm an older lady. But, Natalie HAS to go!! She is unbelievably annoying.

Wow. Natalie is a piece of work. Get rid of her, please.

YEAH! Ding dong, the witch is dead! She can't even give up her jacket.

Natalie's voted out, and ignores her friend's plea for her jacket as she stomps off. That was hilarious.

Going into this commercial break is highly suspenseful. Natalie said she was getting some wood, could that mean this is the episode where we finally see her do some work?
I like how the reward challenge was a lot less intense than the immunity. Chickens are nice, but you'd be nuts to waste the same amount of energy on that as you would on immunity.
I haven't liked a whole lot of Natalie, but that demand of hers took guts - personal items in exchange for votes. I also loved her subtle scorched-earth play, when she left, she took every single personal possession, rather than leaving anything for them to vulture.

Hope that Natalie is not like that in real life. And really think that she would not be having friends in real life. For someone like her she deep down has low self esteem and self confidence. And should like Natalia both were bullies and that they think by doing that it is elevating themselves and demoralizing people. Sad but true.

Good episode, I won't miss Natalie, Lyrsa the underdog narrowly survived a second time, and the original David and Goliath tribes are now evenly matched. Next week will be interesting, I thought Mike was the one who flipped, but he stayed loyal to Natalie and Angelina flipped. Can't help but wonder if Angelina convinced Mike to stay loyal, only to put him on the outs by voting Natalie out, it would explain why he's trying to set Lyrsa and Nick against Angelina in the preview.
Good for Christian, he rocked that immunity challenge. I'm liking the Bro alliance he has going with John and Dan too. I wasn't impressed with Dan early on when he told so many others he found his first idol, but if he keeps quiet about his second one, he might grow on me. Also happy Carl's tribe won after losing last week.

So happy about the Natalie blindside. She was beyond annoying on my screen. I can't imagine having to live with her. She was so wrong about those eggs. In other countries they sell them on the shelf, not refrigerated.
Natalie had some nerve demanding that jacket, but Angelina was ruthless. I'm all for using left resources, but she was more cutthroat about the situation. I'd be happy if she were the next blindside.
Another tribal, another blindside - loving this season.

Angelina's a sly one. They should watch out for her. But the ending was pretty funny: "Natalie? Can I have your jacket? Natalie? Natalie?" Guess that's a no. I love Christian, still. I'm so glad he helped them win that challenge. Natalie's personality is completely frustrating. I'd hate being on a tribe with her and having to work with her in any way. I'm glad she's gone. And once again, a Goliath flips and takes out another Goliath. The blindsides are awesome for the audience, but we'll see how well it plays out for the Goliaths! re: the eggs, my friend who raises chickens explained the difference to me after I freaked in Italy seeing them sitting out on shelves. I can't remember all the details, but those that have been refrigerated have to continue to be refrigerated. If they've been washed, they have to be refrigerated because something about being washed makes them more prone to bacteria, or something like that.

Yes... kev89 confused me for a minute, but I’m sure I saw the same votes Sk8leigh did. And Navybelle is right - washing eggs removes the protective layer that makes them shelf stable, so it depends on whether those eggs were washed.

I've always been of the opinion that for any major food awards that tribe should eat them fairly soon, before the tribes are reshuffled and someone undeserving ends up with the food. Ideally for strengthen before challenges. Natalie was right that two eggs each really wasn't very much. But I wonder how the chicken folks are doing. Saving those chickens for the sake of their eggs is stupid IMO. Eat the damn things. That's several major meals. Build up your reserves. Don't give up that advantage to someone else.
The final Natalie/Angelina scenes were a hoot. Natalie said she didn't do it because she didn't know for sure whether Angelina voted for her. I wonder if that was really a reason, but delicious if it was considering Angelina's manipulations.

If everyone had 2 eggs each, then each person should've just decided what to do with their own. If Natalie wanted to cook her 2, they should've let her and the rest of the tribe could've done what they wanted with the remaining eggs.

WITHOUT QUESTION. Here's an article about her from her magazine. Natalie doesn't need a fan club . . . she has Natalie, and that's enough.

But Natalie thinks whatever she wants is what everyone should want. SMH.

I was so happy to see Natalie's face, as her name was read out..bye bye bully!
Asking for her coat was a bit pathetic, I'd never ask her for anything. That was some storm/cyclone..
Another good episode, Christian rocked in that challenge

Eggs for whom? Mostly other people who didn't even win them. Not a competitive approach.

I wonder what food they were given when they were taken off the island during the cyclone.

This article was hard to read as it basically slams reality tv as being cheap to produce and that why there is so much of it and it kinda slams Survivor itself and then it weaves in paragraphs from Natalie commenting how well she thinks she will do. It is confusing and doesn't know what it wants to be an super snobby intellectual jab at reality TV or an interview with Natalie?
