Survivor Tocantins claimed it’s first injury victim tonight

Joe, who’s had a cut in his leg for so long that I can’t even remember when it happened, was finally spotted by Jeff at the first ever merge challenge and held back for examination by the medical team. Unfortunately for a very gaunt looking Joe, that inflamed red hot area spanning close to his whole shin wasn’t anything to mess around with and he was shipped out on the first helicopter without even having the chance to say good bye.

My favorite part was when the Probstmeister risked his own good health to trek through the pouring rain looking as fresh and clean as ever to tell the poor ragged, dirty and cold remaining survivors that, not only was their teammate gone, but their expected evening rendezvous at tribal council would be cancelled. Instead of bringing screams of joy, or at least private confessions of  “thank God,” the new Forza tribe members were mostly mad. What seemed like a solid pact for Debbie, Coach, Tyson, J.T. and Taj to vote out either Seirra or Brendan is now in major danger of being blown to bits by bad timing and loose mouths.

Oh how easily the Timbira and Jalapao tribe members shed their red and black bandanas to snake in and out of each other’s circles of trust. In a shout out to the arrogant  Coach, I must ask , which beast will have their head chopped off at the end of the next day? My bets are on the dragon slayer himself.
