Episode Report Card Sara M: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Sash Goes Both Ways
By Sara M | Season 21 | Episode 13 | Aired on 12.08.2010
Chase and his women sit down to some watermelon and alcohol. Then they explore the tiki hut they'll be staying in, which Jane is very excited about. Apparently she's always wanted to spend a night in one but never thought to go down to Big Lots and spend like $15 on some tacky tiki décor and make one herself. Also, what's with a tiki hut in Nicaragua? Did they forget they weren't on a small island in the South Pacific this season? The three get a look at themselves in the mirror for the first time in 30 days, and Holly gets all excited about Chase's beard and Jane's emaciated figure, as apparently Holly couldn't see those things for herself already. "I'm like a rack of bones," Jane says. Yes. And yet, she keeps walking around in a bikini every chance she gets. Then it's time for an outdoor shower. Chase and two women in the shower? Could get kinky! Also, I hope that shower has hot water. I'd be so pissed off if my reward shower was some cold outdoor affair. Oh, and since it's an outdoor shower, Holly basically has to get naked in front of everyone in order to enjoy it. Boy, the producers must have really expected some of the young ladies to still be in the running when they planned this reward.
All cleaned up, Holly is still thinking strategically, and interviews that when Chase picked her and Jane instead of Sash to go on the reward, her heart sank. Chase agrees. As Jane showers, he pulls Holly aside and admits that he "really screwed up" by picking her. "You did," Holly says. Chase says she should have whispered Sash's name to him, then immediately apologizes and says this isn't her fault. Yeah, Chase? Maybe you learn how to make decisions under pressure and stop freezing up. Ridiculous. Also, I love how Chase is still filthy because obviously, even though he won the reward, he insisted that the women enjoy the shower first. That's the same thinking that put Jane there instead of Sash. Chase realizes that Sash is probably back at camp conspiring with the other three guys against them all. Holly says she thinks they'll vote out Jane, then Chase and then her. Probably true. Chase interviews that he's been "a little flighty" this whole game and that could come back to haunt him. It would have come back to haunt him a long time ago if the people in this game had any sense of strategy. But most of them do not, so here he still is. He says he'll just have to hope they can keep Sash on their side when they go back to camp tomorrow. For now, though, they're going to get massages.
