Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! I can't believe Tony fell for it and yet I totally can because the Brain's skulduggery was incredible.
They were doomed, doomed, DOOMED - I was finished for them knowing it was over but the way they turned it around was pure genius. I'm reeling at the turn of events, in a Very Good Way and don't feel a smidgen of sympathy for Jefra and her sparkly, blue bikini'd teeth.
I loved the subtlety of the Brain's strategy and what a group effort it was with Spencer twisting Tony's mind about the threat of the girls while Tasha delivered the visual image of them getting cosy in the water.
Also, neither of them lost hope for a moment. They remained 100% positive and determined, even after they were so defeated at the delicious Reward Challenge. Tasha lost everything but all it did was make her stronger at the Immunity Challenge.
This is one of the things I love about the show - seeing people pull out everything they have and controlling their minds in amazing ways - while Jeff tries to stop them by going on about how well everyone
else is doing in challenges.
Tasha's most impressive moment was at the very end of the Immunity Challenge, with one ball left to sink, hearing that Woo had one more too - brainy stuff!
The way things are going it's looking like I might get my wish of a Spencer, Tasha, Tony final three, depending on what happens with Woo.
I don't see him turning on Tony - the show tried to suggest it in the trailer but Woo doesn't have any real relationship with The Horse or Kass so I suspect - and hope - that he'll stick with Tony and that things will come down to the four of them with a "may the best person win" attitude.
Speaking of Kass... turns out the jury loathes her. Yaydom. There's been a
lot of negative talk about her behind-the-scenes amongst the jury, particularly from Morgan and Sarah. I've always known she'd never win but it's soothing to actually hear it.
I've just watched the five Ponderosa vids so far and Sarah and Morgan go off about her. Also interesting is that Beauty is now out of the game and only Brains and Brawn are left. Jefra's snuffing has made it a Beauty-filled jury.
