Episode Report Card Sara M: D | 1 USERS: F YOU GRADE IT Nothing Left To Suck

The next day, it's pouring outside and the beach is flooded again. "Our nice little pond is now a raging river!" Jane interviews excitedly. The contestants have nothing to do but huddle in the shelter and watch their beach erode. "This makes camp life miserable," Jane says with a mirthless chuckle. The other Kelly and NaOnka, on the other hand, are finding nothing to even sarcastically laugh about in this weather. NaOnka says she's anemic, so when she gets cold, her joints get stuck or something. I thought she was full of shit, but apparently anemia can cause joint pain. That said, after almost a month with very little food, it's safe to say that pretty much everyone at camp is anemic at this point, so I doubt her joints hurt more than anyone else's. Also, maybe you don't go on Survivor if you're so anemic that it causes crippling joint pain. And finally, NaOnka is still full of shit. As for the other Kelly, "there's just only so much I can do," she whines. She says she doesn't know how much more she can take and tells Jud she's never felt anything like this before. So I guess maybe we don't cast ditzy sheltered 20 year olds on this show anymore, hmm? No matter how pretty they are, they almost never make for good TV. Or, in the case of the other Kelly, make for any TV at all. Jud interviews that the elements are tough, especially now that their tarp has a few holes burned into it and they're getting wet. But Jud just tries to find a "mental happy place" and remember that this is all temporary. Holly tries to inspire the group by saying this will make them all "much stronger people." "My ass hurts," NaOnka says. Pearls of wisdom.
Soon enough, the rain stops and the sun is out again. Ben and Jud take a walk to discuss NaOnka and the other Kelly's attitude problems. They're both totally fine with them quitting the game, and the sooner the better. It just puts them that much closer to the end, right? Honestly, I'd be dumping cold water on NaOnka at all times in the hopes that her joint froze up or whatever and I was that much closer to a million dollars. I don't know why no one else is doing that. Ben interviews that they're in a "freaking rainforest" so rain is to be expected. If you can't handle that, Ben says, "you don't belong here." I kinda hate Ben, but he's absolutely right. Chase takes a walk with NaOnka. She thanks him for convincing her not to quit before (well, she doesn't actually thank him -- she just acknowledges that this happened, for NaOnka is incapable of gratitude) and says her heart is no longer in this game so she's giving Chase her immunity idol. And she does. Chase doesn't really know what to say except that he "appreciates the hell out of this." He interviews that he hopes it will help him out and he has no intention of returning it to her if she doesn't end up quitting. Although the fact that she is now giving idols away pretty much tells us that she is dead-set on quitting this game.
