A loooong opening recap, basically just so Probst could say that when Jean-Robert was voted out he was "dealt a losing hand." Ohhh Probst, you rogue.

James is wising up that he might not be able to trust anyone, especially Todd and Courtney. Good to see he's learning. Denise, meanwhile is pissed that she didn't know about the vote change. A little talking to by James though soothes away all of her worries.

Now, I don't know if this is cause I watched it on-line or not but the credit sequence was just the players left and then the jury. I think that's a fantastic idea and I hope they keep it from now on.

Congratulations Peih-Gee, with Jean-Robert gone you are now official the most annoying Survivor left. James wakes everyone with a "good morning" song. I have flashbacks to Scout Camp and am filled with the desire to dump James in the river. Which river? Doesn't matter. Frosti and Courtney continue to make googy eyes at each other. Good thing I'm not diabetic or I'd be in sugar shock by now. Enough of this cutesy crapola, on to-

REWARD CHALLENGE!
Teams of four have to maneuver a ball through a course by bouncing it on the head of the drums they're carrying. In a wise move, Todd picks Denise to be on their team, avoiding her being left last two rewards in a row. Also of note, helllloooo pixelation on Amanda's backside. That girl is hotter than a pound of peppers.

Erik uses his virgin powers and his mastery over handling balls to lead his team to an easy victory over Peih-gee, James, Todd and Denise. He, Amanda, Frosti and Courtney all get to enjoy a cruise and dinner. Aboard the ship there is much schmoozing, drinking, and even more cuteness by Courtney and Frosti. Courtney doesn't know what she likes so much about him, considering he's "only 20". What is she, Methuselah?

Also, a word of wisdom, any time you see two people snuggling up like Courtney and Frosti are, you need to nip that in the BUD. If Rob and Amber didn't teach you that lesson in All-Stars, then the Tom/Ian romance of Palau should have been all the evidence you needed. And no, this will not be my last Palau reference this week.

Back at camp Peih-Gee decides to blame James for their loss. "I can't believe you accused me of ever giving up," she says. Really? How did Aaron get voted out again? Oh, right, cause you threw the challenge. James is not hearing anything Peih-Gee is saying and she storms off for an angry swim. She's just mad that she hasn't won ANY of the reward challenges.

Ring!
Ring!
Hold on a second. Hello? Oh, Peih-Gee it's for you. It's Stephanie and Bobby Jon from Palua, they'd like a word with you.

Once she's gone James makes another Adam and Eve reference, this time in regards to temptation. Huh. Wonder if that'll play into anything. The other four return and it's all agreed that Peih-Gee will go home next. I mean, unless she, I don't know, wins the-

REWARD CHALLENGE!
Probst tells Courtney "it's time to give it up." I bet he never dreamed of saying that to her. ...I also bet it's not the first time she's heard that.

Puzzle time! It's a memory quiz, which is bad for James. But it involves a knife, so maybe the Black Crocodile Dundee will have some luck. But what's this? You can Opt out and eat instead? Oh my! Courtney, James, Todd, and Denise all decide to eat. You know, for someone that weighs 5 ozs, Courtney sure likes eating. I also find it odd that Denise, so worried last week that she might be getting the boot soon, decided to for-go playing the game. But it's okay, right? I mean, they know who's going. Peih-gee's going unless... she wins Immunity. Which she does. You hear that gunfire in the distance? That's the best laid plans being shot to pieces.

Back at camp Erik and Frosti share a moment of doomed brotherhood. Man, they're an even cuter couple than Courtney and Frosti. Which is exactly what has The Todd worried. If Erik makes it to the end, he's going to win. But Frosti is also a threat. So who goes? Erik is cute and from the south and he does an incredible goat impression, but Frosti is either winning or almost winning most of the challenges. James worries that Courtney might not want to vote off her "Survivor Boyfriend". Todd, logic machine that he is, says fine, we'll just vote off Courtney then. The guy's a loose cannon, that's all I'm saying.

TRIBAL COUNCIL!
Probst asks James and Todd about sitting out in the challenge. James admits he ate 7 of the 12 burgers on the table and Todd says he was powerless against the will of the fat kid that lives inside of him. Frosti and Erik both know one of them is doomed and in the end
