I knew this underdog triumph was approaching; I just didnt know it would feel this good.
Mainly, Amanda doesnt like Tori and thinks shes an overrated competitor.
This is an observation Ive been waiting for someone to make.
Josh says he wants to run a final with Kaycee and Nany.
Meanwhile, Big T wants to move to the Sapphire Cell.
But neither Logan nor CT wants to work with her.
Im mostly fascinated and curious about Logans body language and tone with Big T during this conversation.
Im hoping we get some more salacious details at the reunion.
But its sad to see him suddenly be so cold toward her when they made such a cute pair.
But its actually quite good.
For Submerged, the teams are strapped inside a plane and lowered into the water.
They also mess up the order of the cards on land a few times.
Lastly, its time for the Sapphire Cell to show us how its done.
They seem to have the best communication and understanding of everyones roles.
By the time T.J. announces Sapphire as this weeks winner, its not much of a surprise.
But its deeply comforting not seeing Nanys giant veneers emerge from behind her lips at least in this scene.
However, she and the rest of the Emerald girls still sit pretty throughout most of this episode.
So she goes over to them to start some low-level drama that doesnt really pay off for us viewers.
The funniest moment in this argument is when Nany asks Amanda why shes talking all funny-style.
I couldnt tell if this was a drunken flub or an expression Nany uses earnestly.
Either way, I rewound it several times.
Now, lets move on to deliberation.
Its all political theater and is never representative of how anyone actually views the game.
So Sapphire votes for Amanda.
Amanda and Josh have some words that I dont really care about because Josh has words with everyone eventually.
This elimination becomes slightly riveting when you think Big T is going to catch up to Amanda.
Amanda can move faster than Big T and wins.
Anyway, Amanda does exactly what she promised and takes Toris spot.
Its frustrating that it took us four weeks to take down Team Emerald.
I ultimately dont think the producers shouldve let the competitors pick their own teams.
But Im thrilled that weve made it to this point where Devin has to sleep with one eye open.
Go seeTop Gun 2, I guess!
