Survivor: Heroes Vs. Villains
Tonight, We Make Our Move

Wow, for an early episode, a lot went on. Emotional breakdowns. Breaking alliances. Hidden immunity idols. The first blindside of the season.

Pre-Credits – We watch the Villains return from Tribal Council and find out that Coach is sensitive and, surprise, among the many other things he does better than anyone else, he’s the best at being sensitive. He was hurt by Sandra’s comments – the ones where she simply said he tells people what to do and then wanders away.

Where did we leave off with our docs? It’s hard to remember with these funky schedules. Last I remember, Coop and Charlotte were sneaking into a bathroom, Addison and Pete were shtupping each other on her floor left and right and Sam found out (and was heart broken), Naomi started dating her boss while a sad Fife looked on, Maya got married and I put money on Dell and Violet getting together. But it’s been a few weeks, so let’s see where everyone is now.

Let’s say you’re watching 24. Jack Bauer is trapped in a building. There are enemy agents blocking both the left and the right corridors.

He needs another way out. He calls Chloe for the schematics of the building, and he gets…CTU voicemail.

Now you’ve got a general idea of this episode.

Only one surprise elimination happened during the Top 20 Results show. And really, it wasn’t too shocking. Thank goodness.

The men were up first (because they performed Tuesday instead of Wednesday because of Crystal Bowersox’s hospitalization).

First on the chopping block was John Park, who failed to live up to his solid audition. No surprise there. But then Ryan pitted Jermaine Sellers against Andrew Garcia and my heart leapt out of my chest — could Andrew really be in trouble?

OH. MY. GOD. Episode starts off with a basically naked Lexi posing in like split screens and everything. I could NOT be more turned on. WOWWWWWWWW! Apparently Lexi was posing for Alex- who left- and boy did he miss out on the hottest chick on Grey’s in bed waiting for him. MEOW! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Opps, Derek walks in accidently, then Meredith does, and she lectures Lexi a little bit and tells her that her heart “lives in her vagina”. Maybe that’s why I am in love with Lexi?
