Cagayan Episode 7: Give Us A Clue

After getting back from the best tribal council ever, Spencer is mad that they flushed two idols for nothing and accuses Kass of playing like an idiot. Kass however is happy that she got her target out and is hoping the people she betrayed "get over it" soon. Not likely.

Jealousy gets you nowhere

Kass passive-aggressively tells Morgan to get water, but she doesn't go since she asked rudely. Kass claims Morgan started the rudeness, but Morgan clarifies that she wasn't being rude to Kass, she was just ignoring her. Okay then. The best part of the scene however is seeing LJ cheering in the background.

More challenges should use see saws

The reward challenge involves going over a see saw, climbing a rope, pulling a chest up and doing a puzzle. Beauty tribe plus Spencer make up the orange team, the others are on purple. Woo slows his team down over the water section, but makes it up by flying up the rope the quickest. Purple team get their players up to the top first but the LJ and Spencer combination on the puzzle (mostly LJ) proves too good for Kass and Woo meaning orange team win. They go off to enjoy an Outback steakhouse, and the other team go back to camp.

Back at camp, Tony worries if Kass is truly with him or not. After outright declaring herself a free agent, it's clear the answer is she's with no-one. Clearly she's modelling her game after Sandra. Speaking of which, we all know Sandra would've loved the steakhouse. The reward winners have a great meal, Morgan in particular enjoying the bacon. Spencer saves his napkin until the end of the meal and finds it has a clue inside - table manners pay off, kids!

Kass with her weapon of choice

Arriving back at camp in the rain, Spencer decides to go and hunt for the idol right away, since the steaks have never been higher (sorry). Woo suspects that's what he's doing and decides to follow him. Ninja stealth mode is activated! Spencer walks off and leaves his pants on the riverbed when he crosses paths with Woo. When trying to give Spencer his pants back, Woo finds the clue and takes it for himself. Spencer realizes what has happened far too late and now all Hell is about to break loose.

The stress gets to Spencer as he digs deep

Woo takes the clue back to camp to show his allies, and now the search is on! Everybody is scrambling, running around to look for it - even Morgan, much to Tony's surprise. Spencer starts to get real frustrated and now he's being watched by Kass, who is rubbing it in by saying that Woo stealing his clue was "karma". Kass doesn't prove a very effective watchdog though and Spencer manages to subtly claim the idol right under her nose when she turns away. Opening up the instructions, it appears to be a normal idol...meaning the superidol is still out there!

Good job we went to charm school

The immunity challenge is to balance a block of wood onto a ceiling above them using their head. Kass is first out, with Jeremiah and Trish not far behind. Having to stand on tiptoes is making this challenge very painful. LJ, Spencer and Trish are the last three left, with the latter two going over 90 minutes. Spencer beats Tasha to win immunity and fights off the pain to walk over and collect his necklace.

Even though Tasha is the biggest threat, Tony thinks Morgan might be a better vote just in case someone on Aparri has an idol. Tony also thinks she doesn't deserve to be there because she's lazy. The other group decide who they're voting for and Spencer vetoes Morgan's suggestion of Kass as she's the only one that would consider flipping back. He wants to vote for Tony and hope that he says something really stupid at tribal council (definitely a possibility).

Probst points out that the power has shifted a lot since the last tribal council and Kass takes ownership as the one who facilitated it. Morgan, trying not to get voted out, lists all the reasons she sucks...and Trish chimes in and adds some more. When Probst tries to get to the bottom of her laziness, Morgan admits she's used to getting what she wants in life because of her looks. Jefra denies that anyone is on the bottom of the alliance, which Spencer claims is ridiculous.

It's time to vote. Solana do a good job of hiding who they voted for and it pays off as "Queen Morgan" is sent out successfully and with little fuss. I guess every episode can't be amazing...but I'm hoping for some big moves again next week.

STAR OF THE WEEK: WOO HWANG

You're probably thinking "why not Spencer?" - but Woo using his ninja skills was the funniest part of the episode for me. The martial arts master is an adorable under-the-radar character, and the Sonic reference sealed it. Woo could be very tough to beat in a final 2...he's likeable, kicking ass in challenges and hasn't stepped on any toes.
