Survivor Recap: Fasten Your Seatbelts

April 25, 2019 by tamaratattles 24 Comments

By Guest Correspondent Cho

Hey, it’s Cho! I’m really excited to recap this episode of Edge of Extinction, because I think it will be Wardog-centric considering how he has recently taken over the game. No one saw this coming, eh?! If you missed what happened last week with his power play of taking out two returning Survivors back to back, please catch up here!

Forgiveness On the Edge of Extinction

On the Edge of Extinction, Kelley Wentworth is falling apart emotionally. Getting voted out with an idol in her pocket has taken its toll on her. She feels bad considering she’s a perfectionist. She cries. I feel bad, but the other returning survivors support her. Reem reminds us how she tried to vote Wentworth out on Day 3 and she’s the reason her Survivor dream was ruined. She actually confronts Wentworth about it and she gets an apology. It’s actually a touching scene. Reem HAS GROWN Y’ALL! Wentworth cries some more about being vulnerable on the Edge of Extinction and hopes that she can take these experiences back home where it’s most important.

CATCH UP ON ALL THE SURVIVOR EDGE OF EXTINCTION RECAPS HERE! 

We return after that crazy blindside to see Lauren reminding us how much it sucked. Kelley Wentworth was like a sister to her. Julie is still on the outside and asking questions on why people flipped. Lauren says she’s out for blood against Wardog and also Rick Devens who she deems as a big threat to everyone in the game. I actually can’t disagree with her.

Survivor Recap JulieThe Top Dog Alliance

Wardog decides to chastise Gavin Whitson, and it looks bad. He blames Gavin for the reason why he betrayed him. WTF! That’s not how trust works, Wardog. He’s definitely a bully in this instance. Gavin goes to the others to relay how disgusting Wardog treated him after the tribal council, and Ron Clark decides he would consider flipping on Wardog. Worried about his closest ally not trusting him, Ron reveals Aurora’s extra vote to Julie Rosenberg which builds trust with her who he just left out in the dark. It works. Because Julie is less than smart.

Rick Devens has this idea that he, Ron Clark and Wardog are the biggest threats remaining in the game who have built the best resumes. For lack of a better term, he considers them “the top dogs”. He says they are each other’s biggest threats but their only hope at getting to the end of the game. Wardog decides that it’s time to “take the goats out”. They decide Aurora McCreary is the most targeted player in the game that should go next. I don’t know why everyone dislikes Ron. Ron Clark is playing these two guys like a fiddle, and I love it. He’s most consistently in the middle and knows how to play it!

Mud Massages & Mud Slinging

The Survivors are playing for reward: a mud bath where they are treated to lots of yummy treats! Wardog is failing miserably in the challenge already. Is he throwing these challenges? Aurora McCreary on the other hand is DESTROYING this challenge, which doesn’t help her case if people decide to target her at Tribal Council. She is killing it!! Devin, Julie, Wardog and Lauren end up winning reward anyway.

Ron Clark complains about losing the food reward, but revels in the opportunity to scheme. Of course he does! Victoria and Aurora say that Rick Devens needs to go who they see as a favorite from a jury’s point of view. Gavin Whitson is upset at this news since he prefers booting Wardog, but he’s willing to flip to whoever has power. Remember last episode Aurora gave Ron Clark her advantage? Well, he’s giving it back, but not before they get into huge fight about how much rice to cook. They both give dueling confessionals LITERALLY saying the same thing about the other being controlling and a drama queen. They’re made for each other honestly.

Survivor Recap Wardog and Devens at MudbathThe Survivors are having a fantastic reward. We get a GRATUITOUS shot of Rick Devens and Wardog rubbing mud on each other. Nothing gets better than this. I think Wardog is actually pretty sexy with that voice of his. There, I said it. Rick likes the group he’s in, because he thinks Lauren O’Connell  and Julie are followers who don’t really wanna play the game. As soon as he throws this shade, Julie and Lauren decide to scheme about taking him out of the game. They debate the merits of who of the two to vote off first. I think Rick Devens is the bigger threat between them, but what do you think?

Survivor Recap AuroraThe Immunity Challenge

At the immunity challenge, I can’t believe we are at the final 8! This means we only have a handful of episodes left! Of course, Aurora is in the lead, but Rick Devens is surprisingly on her tail! This puzzle looks complicated as fuck, and I really don’t know who’s going to win! Aurora McCreary admits to being bad at puzzles. And just like that, the most targeted player this episode wins individual immunity a second time in a row. Congrats Rick! Gavin thinks this is his shot to take Wardog out. I doubt that happens so easily, homeboy. You should have thought about this when you aligned with him to take Eric out…

A Dog Eat Dog World

Wardog decides to double down on voting Aurora out by manipulating Ron into believing that he will be targeted if one of the top dogs is voted off next. He also talks to Julie, who fake pretends to be on Wardog’s side, but really, she’s really distrustful of him. Wardog admits that if they are smart, they will get rid of him now, but he’s banking on them being stupid. Gotta love him for his honesty actually! Julie Rosenberg decides talk to Lauren about whether it’s best to take Wardog out right now. I don’t know why Lauren O’Connell doesn’t understand he’s running so much game on her. She doesn’t want to make an emotional decision, and says Wardog is the devil she knows which is better than Aurora. I disagree with her.

Survivor Recap AuroraAurora McCreary and Ron Clark have a heart-to-heart about their relationship. Aurora says she’s worried about Ron playing both sides. Well duh! She even admits that he has constantly lied to her. Umm duh again! Rick and Wardog aren’t talking to her which is an indicator that they’re voting against her. Obviously! Suffice to say, she’s considering playing her advantage tonight and hopes Ron votes with her against Wardog. Once again, everything boils down to what Ron wants to do…

Survivor Recap Tribal CouncilTribal Council

Gavin Whitson immediately takes shots at Wardog right out of the gate for being so disrespectful in the way he spoke to him. Wardog basically calls him a floater and says how he doesn’t like that type of gameplay. Wardog says that Ron Clark was apart of the plot to get rid of Wentworth which receives eyerolls from the jury. Jeff Probst remarks on the obvious ploy happening that people this season are openly admitting to who they slayed as a “badge of honor” to pad their resume. Victoria says this is a dangerous strategy, because if you start bragging about who you’ve blindsided, you become the next big threat. Maybe Wardog goes…

Survivor Recap VictoriaJeff Probst poses the question to Aurora McCreary whether everyone would agree who the biggest targets in the game are, and she says it’s an ever-changing dynamic. I can’t help but agree with her. Rick Devens says he needed to win the last two immunities to be safe, but yet, winning those two immunities could have made him an even bigger threat. Aurora says she’s used to things being up in the air and she knows someone is going to be surprised tonight. I think it might actually be her… Jeff reads the votes: Aurora, Wardog, Aurora, Wardog, Wardog, Wardog and in a 6-2 vote, Wardog is blindsided. Wentworth is ecstatic that the tribe chose to get rid of him.

Survivor Recap Wardog SnuggPersonal Announcement!

I’m actually surprised by tonight’s voted off Survivor, but what do you think about what happened this episode?! Did Ron Clark make the right decision? Do you have respect for the moves Lauren and Julie are trying to make?

    I don’t think Reem has grown. She has been on the Edge for days and still hates on anyone who voted her out. She wanted Kelley out right away, but faults Kelley for targeting Reem who was not only unbearable, but targeting Kelley. No brainer.

    I was just fine with Wardog leaving, especially since their target win immunity again.

    My favorite part of this episode was the cute fruit bat.

    Cho, do you watch Amazing Race?

    Keep up the great Survivor recaps.

      Yeah, Reem has been a pain in the ass for everyone she has encountered since being voted off. It’s so interesting that despite being the first booted, we are still seeing more of her and her lasting impact on the viewers. It’s what makes this twist really unique.

      I used to watch TAR ALL THE TIME but sadly not much anymore. I have the current season saved on my DVR because of Rupert, Laura, Corrine and Eliza (all Survivor alums) but I haven’t watched yet. I know Brittany and Janelle are on from Big Brother as well as Tyler Oakley I believe. Also ,Colin & Christie are on who were an ICONIC team from the 3rd or 4th season I believe! Can’t believe they’re still married. lol It should be an entertaining season.

      Thank you for your positive feedback!

    Guess I’m in the minority but I’ve enjoyed Wardog all season. I just loved him tellin’ em, “You did the right thing!” after his torch was snuffed. LMAO

      For me, he totally SUCKED at all challenges. I almost wanted to believe the social media rumors that he was sandbagging, but I just don’t. He was hated by all of his tribemates since the get go for barking orders at everyone and telling them how to vote.

      I don’t see how he had any qualities of a good player. Cho seems to think that being on the right side of the vote is a big deal. I guess he had that going for him. But he really wasn’t a likeable player. At least not for me.

        My wardog overview in a nutshell:
        1) He sucked at the challenges
        2) He sucked at getting people to like him
        3) He made one strong alliance the entire game (Kelley/Lauren)
        4) He was able to strategically sway a few key people against their best judgment at the right time (Julia/Gavin and Julie/Ron).
        5) He’s had some funny quips here and there, but he’s mostly fun to laugh at.

      I definitely think wardog has brought a certain level of entertainment this season. He’s among one of the most entertaining, but I can’t say he’s close to being one of my favorites! He’s definitely unique and played hard.

    Maybe it’s just me, but I have had a really difficult time understanding what Wardog says. I had to turn on closed captioning or I would have been really lost. Is that just me? I clearly understand everyone else.

    So glad to see him go. And Wardog played a really good game to be losing at all the challenges.

    Next week I hope they show some juicy convos from The Edge of Extinction between Wentworth, Wardog, David etc. Good times.

      You’re not the only one. He talks with such a heavy accent and really fast. haha

      I also thought Wardog was OK at the strategic part of the game. He really had taken control and made some strategic moves. I think him getting rid of Wentworth was a huge mistake though and completely unnecessary.

      I’m glad she’s there, because it’s giving her more time to unravel. Strange to say, but she’s actually one of the characters I have enjoyed most this season. haha

    I agree with TT that Wardog was an unlikable player. Always sucking at the challenges, always barking orders, acting like the head ass in charge. I was thrilled when he was voted out. I suspect Devins will be next. He should be.

      I agree with this. He is very polarizing and it makes sense. He definitely barked at a lot of people. I guess that’s why his name is Wardog! Devins has been kind of annoying to me lately, so I wouldn’t mind him leaving next. I think he’s a pretty bad player tbh, BUT overall I think he’s brought a lot to the show!

    I like Devins. He sucks at the social game, but he is crushing it in challenges. I laughed when he said Wardog’s belly flop into the water was awkward. I hate that Kelley thinks everything is about her. They didn’t vote out Wardog for revenge, they voted him out because they could not trust him. I want more Reem telling everyone off. Reem does make it awful on the island, but it makes it fun to watch. I am curious to see who Aurara has show up for family day since she was in foster care.

      I really find Devin’s funny overall. I think he’s been annoying me somewhat because he’s just so bold at blowing up the game at TC despite being wrong so often at the outcome. He’s definitely going to be targeted this next episode. I don’t get why he’s such a jury threat considering I don’t think he’s playing the best game ever, but that’s what makes this game so unique. The jury ultimately decides!

      I find Reem to be utterly hilarious!

      Yeah, I also wonder who Aurora will bring to the island. I’m sure she has a best friend or maybe a girlfriend. I forget if she’s single or not.

    Hey Cho, some dumbfuck on Twitter who is a huge Wardog fan says I must not be a long time Survivor watcher because if I were, I’d know what a fantastic player he is. I imagine he also thinks he sandbagged his way through challenges. ROFLMAO. Wardog is like the LVP of Survivor with rabid oddball fans.

      LOL the LVP of Survivor. Yeah, I think people just have an obsessive complex about Survivors with bald heads, bossy attitudes and overly aggressive gameplay. It’s an annoying part of the Survivor fanbase that I’ve had to accept for a while now.

      OK OK listen. I think maybe I was just delirious because we didn’t get any good shots of Chris this episode and all the eye candy has been voted off for the most part. We don’t get enough shots of Gavin without the pineapple shirt. Aaaaand I’m into middle aged guys so…. Wardog is a good look for me. 😉

    I’m finally caught up and just wanted you to know how I’ve been enjoying the recaps (and comments) Cho!

    However —— sexy voice War Dog? BLECH — lol.

    Only my youngest daughter is still in the core game (Victoria). The rest of us are Exiled. Survivor is our Show still, no matter where we all are. Which is the main reason I changed my feelings toward Reem (Daly really? Lmao). She really was genuine I thought, when she spoke about her and her kids watching the show.
