IC:

Climb a wall, where they get pieces, and that gives them a number code they use to unlock a box. Winner also gets pizza reward with soda and garlic bread.

Hantz 2.0 in the lead, followed by Rick. Albert behind, but starting to catch up. Coach, "gonna burn some skin off the butt" as he falls down. And silent Rick is all ears. Silent Rick, spurred on by Coach's burnt butt skin, has all five; so does Hantz 2.0 Albert has now fallen twice.

All now at their puzzles. Rick is confused. Sophie and Albert are undoing their pieces. hantz 2.0 thinks he has his numbers, so does Coach. Albert has words of encouragement for both. Hantz 2.0 wins immunity and screams "Thank You, Jesus!! Ah, thank you Father" and point to the sky.

Hantz 2.0 gets to choose another person to have pizza with him. He picks "Cowboy." Holy Hell. After Albert gave him the family visit!

Coach, in confessional, exclaims that he believes in divine intervention. It wasn't Hantz 2.0's time to go home tonight. But he's still pissed.

Wow, that's cruel but cagey to have the pizza eaters eat their pizza in front of the rest of the tribe.

Oh, dear . . . Brandon says if he has to he'd give Albert his immunity necklace, and Albert got a serious twinkle in his eye.

I think they keep Coach for two reasons.

They have to contend with Ozzie and they feel they can win against a past player.

Friggin Brandon - now he's making me feel sorry for his trusting soul. And Albert is making me hate him. (I never liked Coach anyway so that's not an issue)

Te Tuna, day 35.

Pizza comes. Coach and Sophie agree to get rid of Albert because he's sneaky and he thinks he's more strategic than anyone else. Sophie goes over because she just wants to smell the pizza. Albert knows this is a way to pull a coup. And he's right! Oh, Rich breaks his silence to tell Sophie Albert approached him.

Hantz 2.0 says he has to confront ALbert, which he does, but in the most lackadaisical manner possible, then quotes the Bible in confessional. Rick, Hantz 2.0, and Albert are in a heated argument about who said what to whom. Wow, I didn't realize just how short Hantz 2.0 is until now.

Sophie is gratified to see Albert looking pathetic. She and Albert now in heated conversation, punctuated with cursing, interruptions, and drama. Sophie tells Albert "one of us (Sophie or Albert) is going home tonight."

"That's not true."

"Yes it is."

Ominous.

Albert tries to talk to Hantz 2.0, telling him he felt bad when he learned that Rick calls him Princess Albert. Hantz 2.0 informs us in confessional that if he has to, he will give Albert his immunity necklace. Then he tells Coach the same thing, punctuated with statements about what Our Heavenly Father would want, which is forgiveness.

With all that information about forgiveness, "it makes it so hard" for Coach to determine who should stay, so what he's going to do is pray. That gets kudos from Hantz 2.0. God is going to give Coach "interpretation and wisdom," and the answer came to him over and over again. And it was the same wisdom over and over again. So, when you hear repetition from God, unlike repetition from Gertrude Stein, it always sounds the same.

TC:

Brandon wants to give his immunity necklace up and Jim's expression is priceless. Dawn: "What's going on?"

Brandon swore he'd stay true to his commitments in this game, and he's doing it. He's doing it as a sign of his word. Coach says that a couple hours ago, hantz 2.0 was going to vote for Albert, but now Hantz 2.0 gives Albert the necklace after prayer. It's hard to explain for Hantz 2.0, because back when he was in the "gang scene," people talked about having your back, but he really did. When there were fights with other "gangs," Hantz 2.0 would be the only one there; the rest of his "gang" just left him hanging. Still, Hantz 2.0 considers Coach and Albert his best friends.

Albert concurs. The bond he has with Hantz 2.0 and Coach are real, unlike those with Sophie and Rick. This is completely undermined by the confessional earlier in the show, though, where he said he thought the whole honor and integrity thing is bullshit.

So, Probst says, if you think this whole thing is real, shouldn't you give the necklace back? Only if I believed he was in trouble! Lotsa talking...

Brandon, should Albert give the necklace back? Only if he wants to. But--surprise!--Albert doesn't want to.

Coach is going to do what God told him to do. And this makes Hantz 2.0 nervous.

(Aside: all of this is, IMO, super creepy)

Rick votes Hantz 2.0 and says "dumb move."

Votes:

Brandon
Sophie
Brandon
Sophie (Brandon shook his head after the 2nd vote)
Brandon

Coach says "it's God's will. There will be redemption." LOL. That's the lamest bit of horse dung I've seen in a long time. Way to be a cult leader, Coach. LOL.

Probst says final duel coming up. The winner will re-enter the game.

Coach tells Brandon it was God's will - oh for Pete's sake stop preying on the kid's faith. It's one thing for him to have it, it's another for you to use it to get you what you want. Look Brandon is a mess, but what just happened is going to mess him up more than he already is.

I want(ed) Brandon gone, but does Coach really have to use his God against him?

Could Brandon have waited until after the vote to give up his necklace?

Next time on....Survivor!

Ozzy's end game is clear: "Plan A, I win. Plan B, I win." For everyone else, it's murky. Albert: "There's no more immunity. If I lose, I'm outta here."

On RI, Hantz 2.0 regales Ozzy with stories about TC. "And you gave the immunity idol away?" "Yeah. This game isn't made for me, bro." We need to retire that word, "bro."

WAAAAAAY too much typing tonight. Off to Modern Family. Have a great evening, folks.

I think this season should be named "Praise The Lord And Send Me To the Crazy House, Amen"! Between Coach praying and Brandon praying and his psycho moves..this show is getting crazier and crazier and tonight took the cake. This season was terrible and I hope I never see a Hantz again.

The best part was the looks on all their faces when Brandon came out of the box before questions and gave up immunity.

Right now Brandons' getting his head handed to him by his family.
