Kalabaw take a minute to switch Carter away from Malcolm and put Jeff Kent in, and it’s time for the final slings. “Malcolm has been on fire!” For immunity! Jonathan cannot make the catch from Denise, while “Malcolm scores even on Jeff!” Probst screams mid-orgasm. RC jumps on Malcolm as part of her flirtation strategy.

Tandang! Win! Immunity! See you at Tribal Council, Kalabaw. Probst even points out that Abi, having not competed, has no right to hold the chicken idol, and that it should be Malcolm’s honor. And with that, Malcolm is cemented as Probst’s new man-crush and Jeff Kent is consigned to the back alleys of Probst’s heart to hang out with Colby Donaldson and Ozzy. Probst is fickle that way. Denise? Still cursed.

Millipede! Kalabaw is back at camp and moaning about their immunity loss. Carter is complaining that Tandang had a better strategy going – the better strategy being “aim the ball for the guy going against Carter.” Jeff Kent interviews that Carter was out-muscled and out-maneuvered by Malcolm. True, but they should have come up with a strategy to deal with that. They had three match-points. Just sling the ball in the right place for someone to catch it.

Jeff Kent interviews about his alliance with Jonathan, but he says he is still on the fence right now. Jeff Kent and Carter agree they want to keep Denise, and that Katie is worthless. Then Jeff Kent plays the “we can’t let a veteran win” card. Carter says he wants Katie gone, but would vote for Jonathan.

In interview, Carter – another Carter interview? So Kalabaw must be running out of people not named Jonathan Penner – says that he would rather keep Jonathan around because after the merge all eyes will be on the returnee and none on him or Jeff Kent. But Jeff Kent is still talking about blind-siding Jonathan. He’s even come up with a name for it – the “Penner Punch!” All of a sudden, I’m nostalgic for Dawson and her creek.

A little later, Carter, Jeff Kent and Jonathan sit down to talk strategy, and Carter asks Jonathan, “what do you want to do, Katie or Penner?” Like the guy I steal my jokes from said, “Carter is the definition of duh.” Jeff Kent winces, but Jonathan doesn’t let on if he thinks something is up. He has to know, though. Instead, he makes the case for Katie to be out next.

Katie then turns up and Jonathan says “Denise, right? Denise? You cool with that?” before immediately taking off to go fishing. Katie picks up on how “shady” that was, and Jeff Kent refers to Jonathan as being “out there. Way out there.”

Katie talks some more with Jeff Kent about how she wants Jonathan out. He is a wild card, and she trusts Denise – the cursed one – more. In interview, she says and Jeff Kent been talking since Day 1 about getting rid of Jonathan – except for those six days or so Jeff Kent was aligned with him. Back at camp, Jeff Kent asks Katie is ready to vote for Jonathan. Katie is “so down” with that.
