Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 29 Blood v. Water 2 San Juan Del Sur Week 2

Tom's Take:


Week Two ends with some gameplay going terribly, and the unlocking of the John Rocker character on the season. Spoiler alert, I give his arc two or three episodes at most. It has been hinted at too strongly that he does NOT make the merge, for him to actually make it.





Coyopa Tribe







1. Nadiya


1st Episode: 1st Boot







2. Josh


I still don't think Josh is playing a winner's type game, and he is getting a poor edit, as he is one of the people PRO John Rocker, but he's also getting a strategist's edit, so he could possibly be the future winner this season. Should be interesting to see if his gameplay can improve.

3. Alec

I got nothing.

4. Val

At least Val tried. Her crazy move to claim she had idols worked in that people believed her, but then John Rocker expected to play them...and that's where her plan fell apart.

2nd Boot





5. Wes

I kinda like Wes. He is pretty funny, and one of the more interesting people on his tribe, but there's not a lot going on up there.

6. John Rocker

John Rocker didn't mean to vote out Val, but he wasn't exactly subtle in trying to save her either. Maybe if she had told him she didn't have an idol, he could have actually done something different. As it was, he will take flac for no good reason, which will unlock his dark side.

1st Episode Prediction: Pre Jury
2nd Episode Prediction: Pre-Jury






7. Jaclyn


She played a huge part in the immunity challenge...I can't remember if she won or not...

8. Dale


Not much from Dale this episode, but he did recognize John Rocker leading to a good scene of him identifying John Rocker. He's another one with a chance to win, and that would be a lot of fun, but he probably won't.

9. Baylor


I still like Baylor, but her cry babyitis may be foreshadowing her quitting?


1st Episode Prediction: Winner!
2nd Episode Prediction: Early Juror








Hunahpu Tribe






10. Natalie

Nothing happened for her this episode, so I think we can officially rule her out as a winner.

1st Episode Prediction: Late Jury
2nd Episode Prediction: Late Juror



11. Drew


He beat his brother.

12. Jeremy


Jeremy's the clear winner right now, so I hope he doesn't actually win, but he's the one to watch right now.

2nd Episode Prediction: Winner







13. Reed

Meh.

14. Julie


Ugh...John Rocker is going to screw over Julie's chances at this game.

15. Jon


Guy is actually some good comic relief, which gives him an outside chance of the game, but we'll see what he does with it.


1st episode Prediction: Early Juror.

16. Keith

No change for Keith.


1st Episode Prediction: Early Boot
2nd Episode Prediction: Early Boot





17. Missy


Damn. Missy let her emotions get the best of her, which will definitely be a theme for her this season. I think she should be a fun bitter juror, or possibly quit the game.


1st Episode Prediction: Late Juror/Runner Up
2nd Episode Prediction: Late Juror







18. Kelley


So she was the one that won the immunity challenge?
