Final 5 on Survivor: Philippines

 

by Gina Scarpa

 

Despite the fact that basically no one believes her, Abi continues to keep up the charade that she has a hidden immunity idol in the game of Survivor. Malcolm's starting to worry about Lisa, as he should, since she basically announced that she's looking to take people to the end that she can beat. And she is not beating Malcolm.

 

In the reward challenge, players run up and over a slide, swim out into the ocean, and collect two bags of rings. Then, in a good old fashioned game of ring toss, they must land five in order to win. For an older guy, let me tell you, Skupin is fast! He even beats Malcolm up the slide initially, while Lisa gets going in last place. It gets close between Malcolm and Skupin but Mike is able to land that last ring to win a helicopter and boat ride, complete with pizza, and a swim with whale sharks. He brings along Malcolm, to repay him for last week's reward with the loved ones, and Lisa, as his closest ally.

 

Amazingly, Abi is pissed she wasn't asked to go and huffs, "I guess my vote doesn't mean anything." Back at camp, she sulks and says she now has proof she's on the bottom. You didn't know that BEFORE today?! On the boat, Skupin drinks soda (or pop, as he calls it) for the first time in 30 years and says he never has sugar, which makes me wonder where the heck all his energy comes from. Malcolm proposes a final three and Skupin's off shaking his hand because Lisa can offer an opinion. It looks like we have a deal.

 

Denise wakes up the next morning in a lot of pain and with fang marks on her neck. Um, that's just a bit scary considering they live amongst snakes, spiders, scorpions, and so on. She rallies in time for the immunity challenge, where players use planks to cross a rope bridge and collect pieces to a maze. Malcolm falls early on, and Skupin is in first for most of the competition, but Doreen comes close to winning. Somehow, Malcolm the golden child rallies, comes back, and wins! What the heck was everyone else doing? Now, he has the necklace and his hidden idol. If he doesn't win the million, I'll eat my Macbook.

 

At camp, Abi proposes a final three to Skupin with Lisa, which of course, is not a bad idea for them. She has no problem announcing that it's a good idea too in front of Jeff and the jury at tribal council. When she starts to get the vibe that she's going home, she calls Skupin a moron and an idiot. That may have been the last straw and Abi was voted out and sent to the jury.

 

With Lisa, Skupin, Malcolm, and Denise in the final four, it's going to be an interesting finale. I'm pretty sure this may be the first time that I'd be happy with any member of the final four winning.

 

 

Don't miss the finale of Survivor, Sunday at 8/7c on CBS.
