Episode Report Card Sara M: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Elephant Dung: A Love/Hate Story
By Sara M | Season 17 | Episode 1 | Aired on 09.25.2008
Gillian talks to Susie about engineering some sort of "surprise vote out." If she's talking a physical person like Matty or Dan, she's crazy. Or not, since this is probably her only chance to stay in the game for another round. Gillian says the young people are ganging up against them, so if Gillian goes, Susie will be out next. Gillian says they could vote out a "very weak" young person, like Ken. Weak? I think not! He can play Super Smash Brothers! He knows where all the secret 1UPs are! He knows the Contra code for infinite lives! Come on! Susie agrees with Gillian's reasoning but seems non-committal. Gillian tells us that she knows she's a "walking target" on this tribe and has to do something about it before it's too late.
Oh! A baby gorilla! So cute! And back at Camp Fang, the contestants are looking pretty down and out. GC says they don't seem to be able to pull things together when it's "crunch time." He says this tribe needs a lot of things, food especially. To that end, Randy has somehow constructed a perfect fish hook out of his glasses, although he sadly had to take his shirt off to do this. Gillian weaves together some twine for a fishing line and various members donate shoelaces as well. Crystal and Susie find worms to use as bait. With that, Crystal sends the "boys" off to catch something since women can't catch fish. They can't catch fish at Kota and they can't do it at Fang either. Fish in Africa refuse to be caught by women. It's a fact. Amazingly, the guys do manage to catch a fish! Now I'm sure those ponds are stocked. GC says they don't need reward challenge fishing gear since they can do it all by themselves. Now quick! Eat it before Dan gets back. Ken and GC return to camp with a sack with five fish in it, which is impressive. GC says it feels good to get some protein in his body after six days without it.
Dan returns. Gillian hugs him hello and the group presses him for details about Exile "Island." He won't say much except that there's a "choice" when you get there and he made the wrong one. He thinks if Fang ever wins a challenge, they should send one of Kota's weaker team members to Exile. He says he looked for the idol for five or six hours and had no luck, so a weaker player is sure not to be able to find it. GC interviews that Dan was acting strange when he returned from Exile. Dan lies down and says Exile made him "re-think" why he wanted to do this game. GC thinks Dan either has the idol or knows where it is. Matty, Ken, and Susie seem to agree with this. Way to act needlessly suspicious, Dan. Now they're thinking of voting you out to flush out the idol that you don't even have.
