Randy’s idol gaffe draws smiles on Survivor: Gabon - It Happened Last Night - Zap2it

Now this is interesting, kids. We know who everyone’s voting for, we know Randy’s going to play the fake idol, and we know he’s really going home. We know everything about what’s going to happen at tribal – and still it’s exciting! Sugar and Crystal’s addresses to the voting booth camera are particularly rewarding. In a Survivor first, Crystal forgoes the traditional whispering and shouts her comments at the camera, letting Randy and the entire tribe know what she thinks of him. Sugar can barely contain herself.

As suspected, Randy plays the idol, and the moment is more than the tribe can take. Both alliances are sporting huge grins as Jeff is informs the group that what Randy has given him is not, indeed, an immunity idol. Randy’s face drops, Sugar and Crystal bust a gut, and Corinne’s smile vanishes. Interestingly, Bob looks a little sad after the revelation. Randy is voted off, and his torch is snuffed.

Very interesting to see that Bob chose Corinne to share this information with.

That was the best ending to a regular episode of Survivor that I’ve seen in a long time, and this season has officially turned around for me. Hip hip hooray for the merge - as I’d hoped, it brought the schemers head to head. I’ve been on the fence about Sugar for a while, but after tonight I’m convinced – she’s for real. She’s a power player in Ken’s alliance, and has a budding alliance of her own forming with Bob. For these reasons, she’s my early favorite for final two. And regarding the teaser for next week – bring on more immunity idol hijinks! Very interesting to see that Bob chose Corinne to share this information with. Was he experiencing seller’s remorse after fooling Randy tonight? Should the story about the supposedly lost idol prove to be true, is this part of a plan on Sugar’s behalf to form an alliance to take down Kenny’s five and get herself into the final four? If Bob can bring in Corinne with his idol story (let’s face it, she’s got no better option,) and Sugar can either seduce Kenny away from his own alliance or bring Matty over (he seemed willing enough to side with Bob and Corinne earlier tonight), then Sugar will have made the move that I was hoping she might last recap. Either way, this season promises to be interesting from here on out!

I have to give Sugar more credit! She is not as dumb as she appears. In the last couple of weeks she has shown some strength, but then she goes right back to being a pushover. Sometimes I feel like she knows exactly what she is doing and sometimes it seems that it depends only on who is the last person to speak to her. Either way I thank her and Bob for an amazingly entertaining episode. I hate Randy. I would hate to be around him and his pessimism. My husband on the other hand has a soft for Randy, and I agree that as infuriating as he is, his idiocy is very entertaining. The episode last night was great. I thought I was going to have a heart attack from laughter and fear that Randy would try to beat Bob. I am very proud of Bob. He must know that Sugar has the idol. He needed to do something to protect himself and I am glad that this week it worked out for him. I only hope that he can make something work next week. I would love to see him win, as I truly think he is the most deserving person there. Just look at that fake idol!! I also like Kenny, but I fear that he is getting to full of himself. Crystal should be ashamed of herself, she sucks at everything. I am surprise that Susie is still there, but good for her. I can’t wait to see what will come of this. Sugar will have to be pretty stupid to not make it to the final 3. I hope the next episode continues to hold this type of entertainment.

That was one of the most entertaining Tribals I have ever witnessed..and I have seen them all. It was funny, suspense was still there choking on anticipation and anxiety.
It was PRICELESS!! From Randy and Corrines faux pas Confidence to Crystals LOUD testimony…I laughed till I cried.
SUGAR…you dah Woman!!!

Survivor has always been my #1 show and I can say this has been the most interesting and the best Survivor ever. The best is when everyone thought that SUGAR was stupid because she is blond and was picked last in the beginning but personnaly she RULES. What made the show interesting is that SUGAR was sent to exile island almost through the whole Survivor, i laughed so hard because everyone else was suffering except her she always had the energy because she was always lol layed back. Anyways RANDY was just a mean old grumpy BULLY, I think him and Corrine are both cooked lol at the tribal the other night I laughed so hard i couldnt stop and then lol my 10 year old son yells out in your face LOOSER. Randy what comes around goes around. YOU GO GIRL, ALL THE WAY SUGAR, YOU DESERVE IT! I can’t wait t’ill the next one. CANADA

I agree with PawPaw… The remaining Survivors need to be thinking about WHO will be on the Jury at the end. Looks like Sugar & Crystal are setting themselves up for some real big problems getting any votes IF they make it to the final 2.

  Matty is an amazing, fun guy. I hope some movie producer picks him up for some kind of a role in a fun happy movie. I respected him because when he paid another person a compliment you could tell he was sincere and from his heart. He said that he had respect for everyone that

  Dear Corrine, My dad died when I was 8 years old. My brother was murdered at 18 years old. My greatest loss was when I lost my mother eight years ago. It almost killed me. I realized then that no one could ever understand the agonizing pain of loosing a mother until they lost their

  Hi Bob, Congratulations! I just wanted to say that Sugar is a person with a big heart that cares for people. She looked to you as a father. I lost my mother and it almost killed me. If I were you I would have not have thought twice but would have split the $100,000 with

  Corrine-- I am a corporate recruiter in the medical sales field, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry after seeing your performance. Were you dropped on your head as a child?? First of all, no company in their right mind would EVER hire you after watching Survivor...your neurotic, mean and disingenous personality set a new standard

  Sugar deserved zilch,nada, zero, nothing!! Shes certainly not the brightest crayon in the box..Ok, so she gives Matty the idol, And keeps him in, Well she cared enough then to keep him in, how come she had to make it a tie vote?? I agree and stand with Corrine completely.. Plus, as they said we only

  I think it's clear that if the jury were composed of better people, Sugar would have won. She outsmarted, outlasted, and outplayed everyone. Period. That they voted for Susie instead just shows how petty and childish the jury was this season. As for the people who seem to revel in being unpleasant, they should be

  i agree they acted childish, but i think that corrine is the rudest person ever, the things she has said to Sugar are........descusting, horrible, and insulting.

  I hope Survivor's next SEASON would not have another Corine, who thinks "SHE'S GOD GIFT TO MANKIND." Corine don't think you're pretty you are ugly and without good manners at all. With to many unemployed today, you bet you will be one of them. Employers will be scared. Learn your lesson Corine, watch the

  I have seen the show from day one, It should be called the conivers, Even though it's just a game it truely amazes me how low the human society will stoop for money. But I have to say that Bob and Sugar have restored some of my faith in humanity with how they played the

  Jeff, Did anyone notice the item on Sugar's neckless she wore while in Cabon? Was there a meaning behind it? It looked like a 45 record adaptor for the record players? It sure stood out the whole time. She really played a great game.
