Night 8
The Senshi tribe returns from Tribal with J.T. demanding why Julie, Carly and Winslow flipped. Julie explains that Luke is a much better physical player than Drew and is needed for the challenges. Julie then says J.T. worries so much about running the game that he tries to weaken the tribe by letting personal feelings get in the way of strategic thinking. Carly and Winslow agree. Luke lies in the shelter, still shocked he is in the game.

"senshi"

- Tonight, I managed to stay alive and get Drew out. J.T. pushed hard for my outing but Carly, Winslow and Julie pulled through. Hopefully this changes things up.

J.T., Ally, and Walker sit by the fire and discuss their position. Walker reaffirms his loyalty to Ally and J.T., saying he will try to get people to flip back. Ally thinks about using Walker’s blind loyalty to them to try and get her and J.T. closer to the end.

"senshi"

- Walker is undyingly loyal to J.T. and I. I think we can use that to get us farther because sheep keep the sheep herders stronger and J.T. and I are the herders so hopefully they will target Walker before J.T. and I.

Day 9
At Sento-Ki, Gerard tries to re-light the fire with the flint they won. However, most of the steel is gone and can only create tiny sparks. Kim suggests they make fire ‘the Boston Rob way’, which causes Andrea to snicker. Kim ignores her as Kenneth, Ben, and Gerard gather the material necessary to make the fire. Within a half an hour of gathering the supplies, Kim’s plan works and they have a newly lit flame, secretly annoying Andrea.

"sento-ki"

- Kim called that method of fire making the ‘Boston Rob way’. Can we get one season without a mention of that overrated ass?

Carter then wakes up feeling depressed. He asks Kim if they could talk privately and she agrees. They go down to the beach where Danielle finishes washing herself off and leaves. Carter apologizes for the way he has treated her the past few days and explains how he was treated after coming out as gay. He says that people would make petty remarks about him and was once suicidal. He says that he felt he has become what he once hated and has complete disrespect for himself. Kim accepts the apology and the two hug it out, showing mutual respect for one another.

"sento-ki"

- Carter came to me this morning and told me everything. About how he was bullied and once tried to kill himself after coming out. He’s a young kid and is a little immature but I’m happy that he apologized because it shows he does have maturity in him and he can become successful.

"sento-ki"

- Basically I feel like crap after everything I said to Kim. It wasn’t right and I feel awful. I apologized and learned she’s one of the sweetest people still here. But that’s why I need her out. She’s too smart. And I don’t want her gone because I want to know her a little more but we’re on opposite sides and nothing will change that.

Nicki goes over and talks to Kenneth about the possibility of voting Carter out since he’s been a cancer within the tribe. Kenneth agrees that Carter going will help with tribe unity but he is needed for physical strength. Nicki then suggests Andrea because she is both weak and a cancer, plus it also weakens Carter. Kenneth agrees and says he will see if everyone else agrees.

"sento-ki"

- Nicki came up to me and said ‘We need Carter out!’ Well yeah, he’s a douche but he’s also strong. She then suggested Andrea and I agreed. Andrea is one of our weakest girls so I need to see what the others think.

Kenneth regroups with Kim, Chelsea, Ben and Gerard. Kenneth asks if Chelsea has decided where her allegiances lie and tells the four that she is sticking with them since Carter’s supposed alliance is split between Carter and Andrea and Danielle and Nicki. Kenneth tells the five of his conversation with Nicki. Ben agrees that Andrea does nothing and is bad at challenges but Chelsea brings up Danielle’s frail nature, saying it could hinder them. Kenneth agrees with Chelsea and says they should decide on a name if they lose the immunity challenge.

"sento-ki"

- It’s either Andrea or Danielle at this point. We’ll have to see what happens at the challenge.

At Senshi, Luke and Walker begin their daily chores by collecting wood and water. Walker begins to fruitlessly attempt to convince Luke to flip to his alliance with J.T., which Luke refuses, saying he’s not gonna work with someone who tried to vote him out. When that doesn’t work, Walker attempts to convince Luke to align with him and him alone, knowing his neck is on the chopping block and saying they could do damage together. Luke says he will consider the offer, but has no intentions of doing so.

"senshi"

- Walker is desperate. He first asks me to flip from my new alliance and I’m like ‘No way dude, are you crazy?’ Then he asks me to just align with him. I told him I might but I don’t want to since aligning with him means I align with J.T.

Walker returns to J.T. and Ally as they ask him what he and Luke talked about. Walker says he tried to convince Luke to flip but he wouldn’t budge. Ally tries to contain her laughter.

"senhi"

- So today, Walker thought it was a good idea to try and convince the guy we want out to flip. I am FLOORED with his stupidity.
