Hahaha can't believe nobody mentioned the highlight of the episode:

Andrew: Let's go Josh!
Jon: Uhh, Reed's our on team, dude.

Doesn't seem like the strongest cast, but so far I like Dale, Josh, and Wes (for some reason). Was liking Baylor until this episode. Reed could be cool but he hasn't had much screen time.

Go Survivor!

What did Baylor do to turn you against her? As I recall she had a problem with Josh's vote and solo plan but went along with it to not make waves, which I think was a smart move not only to recognize that it was sketchy but not make a big deal of it this early in the game. Then she beat her mom in the challenge in a segment I enjoyed for the Blood vs Water thing. I think you could really see the mom try to psyche herself up with the "I see my ex's face" and then completely lose it and revert back into "mom" when she saw her daughter hurt and in pain, which drove Baylor to go into it with fire mom just didn't have. Then she was just the other half of the split vote plot which seemed to be for no reason other than she's a girl and clearly weaker than the Valkyrie above.

I don't remember Baylor doing anything bad or stupid but maybe I'm just forgetting something.

So far no one is impressing me much socially or strategically. Rocker's an idiot, so are the two "lost the flint/he's not on our team" dudes. The Boston and Broadway couples both seem to be overplaying things and strike me as arrogant but the husband and Blue Broadway don't seem to over played completely yet like the wife (Val?) did or like Gold Broadway (Josh?) feels like he's building to.

I dig underdogs, strong competitors, and island hotness so I kind of like Jaclyn but no one else has stood out to me at all so far. Although if Boston Husband (Jeremy?) can pull off tanking Rocker without hurting himself I might start rooting for him.

Baylor was the other half of the vote split because people thought that Val had two idols and would play them on herself and Jaclyn.

Has Jaclyn done anything this season? I missed chunks of episode 1 but she's way off my radar.

The Twinnie, of course, really stirred that poo poo up, but, wow, John Rocker is kind of giving me the creeps. The way he was so silent like he was gonna hold his tongue, say nothing and play it safe, but then coming out with just a couple comments, both about fighting people, and then going silent again... Freaky

I laughed at this. I'm terrible.

John makes a great goat and a terrible strategist, but he's a physical powerhouse.

Edit: And he's almost certainly going home with that idol in his pocket.
