First I'd like to take a moment to comment on "The Apprentice". Martha Stewart's version is just plain awful. Borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring! Hopefully, the viewing public will agree and this will be her only season. Donald Trump's 4th season looks good. Carolyn's new dew is questionable, but she, and George help make the show what it is meant to be, hardcore Capitalism at it's best. Back to Guatemala…
Night 3 and Nakum returns to camp after Tribal Council. Bobby Jon is not doing well. He's still suffering from dehydration. BJ admits to Uncle Cameraman that he's struggling both physically and mentally. When will he ever be part of an Immunity-winning tribe?
Day 4 and Yaxha is still gloating about their victory over Nakum. Yaxha is a diverse group, everything from a police-woman to a magician's assistant, from a fish-monger to a gay-guy! LOL! Stephenie is happy with her tribe. They seem to be getting along and having fun. Tree-mail arrives and Yaxha learns that it's time for a food-related Reward Challenge. They are excited. Nakum is worried. Blake is still not doing well. He is having trouble with his breathing, and seems to get dizzy often. Can he suck-it-up for the RC?
The Rope-Web is the event. Suspended over water, team-colored bags are tied at various points on the web. One player from each tribe takes their turn to retrieve a bag. Fall off the web before getting a bag and that player must return to the start before another from his/her team may proceed. The prize is fishing equipment and a big bowl of juicy worms. Amy sits out for Yaxha. Jamie and BJ square off first, with Yaxha getting a slight lead. Brian gets a big head start thanks to Jamie, but Cindy sprints and gets Nakum's 2nd bag with ease. Stephenie regains a Yaxha lead against Blake, but Brandon smokes Gary. Each tribe has 4 of 8 bags now with Nakum out in front. The lead is extended as Rafe falls off the web before getting a bag. Margaret brings Nakum's 5th bag, but their efforts are wasted as Judd falls. Morgan gets Yaxha's 5th bag and tied the game. It remains close as Brian and Blake square off to get the 8th bags for each of their tribes. Blake beats Brian buy a nose, giving Nakum a victory!
Day 5 and Nakum goes fishing at dawn. They catch some small pan fish. Bobby Jon is feeling better. Yaxha is hungry. Morgan is shown as doing little around the camp. Lydia is busy making a tidal trap to catch minnows. Gary and Rafe forage for food and come across a hunk of wood rich in ants. Munch, munch, munch! Stephenie refuses to eat ants. Lydia returns with ten minnows. Yaxha savor's the flavor. LOL! Back at Nakum, Judd is get- ting jealous of Blake. Blake was the hero of the RC event. Margaret is still nursing Blake, telling him to relax and drink water. Judd wants to be a hero.
Day 6 and it's time for the Immunity Challenge. It's an old-fashioned Tug of War. Both tribes are harnessed to a single rope connecting them. They will have 15 minutes in Round One to try and retrieve a flag on each end of a muddy field. Players may interfere with each other. If neither side wins, then Round Two will be one-on-one to be closest to a flag after 5 minutes. Round One begins and neither side does all that well. Nakum gets a bit of a lead. Then Brian tries to interfere with their progress. Danni pins him down, and the two wrestle for awhile. She tells him that she knows Gary is an ex-NFL quarterback. Time expires and it's on to Round Two. The first tribe to win three matches wins immunity. Gary and Judd square off. Judd gets a slight lead and digs in. Gary gets frustrated and tries to drag Judd back, but Judd gets further ahead and wins. Brandon gives Nakum a second win when he squares off against Jamie. Jamie tries again for Yaxha against Judd, but Judd easily beats him. Nakum wins their first Immunity. Bobby Jon is especially happy! So is Judd, as he is now a hero!!!
Yaxha returns to camp and Jamie wastes little time in talking about giving Stephenie the boot. He has felt threatened by her since Day 1. Gary does not want Steph to go, he wants to keep the stronger players. Brian asks Gary if he really is a former NFL quarterback and relates what Danni told him. Gary continues to lie about his past, fearing that it would paint a target on him. After much chatter, it comes down to a choice between Lydia and Morgan. Stephenie is leaning towards booting Morgan. Gary towards Lydia, till Lydia has a heart-to-heart with Gary and makes her plea. Brian thinks it's wise to keep Lydia around also.
At Tribal Council, Stephenie admits that she is vulnerable being the best woman on the tribe and having the experience from last season. Jamie says that Stephenie is equal to any of the boys. Lydia knows that she is the least capable player on Yaxha, but she has a lot to still offer her tribe mates. Morgan says that they are a happy tribe, everyone is getting along just fine. Brian declares he will base his vote on preserving tribal unity. It's time to vote. Morgan votes to boot Lydia, the rest vote Morgan off. She is completely blindsided. Jeff warns them that while they may be unified, anyone of them could be blindsided next.
SPOILERS: Nakum needs a bath and mixes in with the local crocodiles. At Yaxha, Amy hurts her ankle and it swells up. Will it cost her tribe victory and earn her a boot.? Or are we being set-up for a Nakum loss?
