Survivor 47, Episode 10 Recap: Loyal to the Soil

Survivor fans love a player who makes big moves, but often, those players are not so beloved by their fellow castaways. In Survivor 47, Episode 10 titled, “Loyal to the Soil,” Genevieve’s scheming finally catches up to her and she is no longer able to blame her master plans on other players. The fallout from Sol’s blindside is rough, and her threat level is exposed. Fortunately for her, she isn’t the only player in the hot seat tonight. The Tuku Four are on everyone’s radar, which causes the tribe to flip on each other to save themselves.

So, who went home? We’ll get to that…

Here is everything that happened on Survivor 47, Episode 10.

What happened on Survivor 47, Episode 10?

Genevieve learns that big moves have big consequences in tonight’s episode. Her ally, Teeny, no longer trusts her, and the rest of the castaways are also wary of her motives in the game. The group is torn between taking out the savvy, social player or breaking up the intimidating Tuku Four by taking out one of their numbers. Kyle wins another Individual Immunity Challenge, protecting him from being the Tuku sacrifice. In the end, the group decides Gabe is a bigger threat than Genevieve; he becomes the 10th person voted out of Survivor 47.

Keep reading for a more detailed recap of tonight’s episode.

Genevieve is in trouble after Survivor 47, Episode 9 blindside

Episode 10 begins with Genevieve scrambling to repair her relationship with Teeny, who felt blindsided by her ally’s master plan to take out Sol last week. Genevieve knows she made the right choice, but she’s worried about it affecting her relationship with Teeny, who had a close bond with the fallen Lavo member.

She explains to Teeny that the decision to leave her out of the vote was not personal, nor did she want to humiliate her ally with a blindside. Genevieve is a great talker, so she does a good job with damage control at this moment, but her relationship with Teeny is still fractured.

I’m concerned about Genevieve’s trajectory going forward. Her game was pretty flawless until Sol’s elimination, which didn’t go as smoothly as she hoped. In prior episodes, she’s recovered quite well from big moves, but last week, her fellow castaways began to notice she’s the voice behind many blindsides this season.

In a separate conversation, Sam tells Andy he doesn’t trust Genevieve, suggesting they keep an eye on the “secret assassin” of Survivor 47.

Genevieve may be able to divert attention this week by focusing on Tuku—the largest tribe left in the game. If she can convince them that Kyle and Gabe are bigger threats, she may be able to buy herself more time.

Is Andy getting a winner’s edit on Survivor 47?

Underdog Andy has been slowly rising in the ranks since the merge. His game was a disaster in the beginning, but my guy has been making moves in the last couple of weeks, and tonight may be his best work yet. The former Gata member is making alliances with everyone, telling Kyle, Teeny, and Rachel that he is ride-or-die for them. Of course, this might come back to bite him, but for now, he’s in a good position. I always thought Genevieve would be the one to flip on him, but Andy might actually be the secret assassin of Survivor 47.

A Reward Challenge sends three castaways to the Survivor Sanctuary

Tonight, the castaways competed in teams of three in the hopes of gaining access to the Survivor Sanctuary, where they will feast on fruit, veggies, chicken, and more. Jeff mentions there will be Cookies n’ Cream cake for dessert and the castaways freak out (these poor, hungry people). They all look pretty emaciated by this point, so the stakes of this Reward Challenge are high.

To win, each team member must successfully move a ball with their head across the sand to the finish line. Then, they must roll the ball down an elevated platform and try to land it in a hole. The challenge looks awful. I can’t imagine how much sand is getting in their eyes. I do not envy them.

The Blue team, consisting of Sam, Kyle, and Rachel, wins the challenge. Ah, I worry for Kyle. Another victory will increase his already high threat level, but access to the Sanctuary will give him a chance to get closer to Sam and Rachel. Kyle needs more allies if he wants a shot at the end, so I hope he uses his time wisely and develops an alliance with Sam and Rachel.

Tuku Divided: Kyle turns on Gabe

Kyle knows all eyes are on Tuku this week, so he offers his pal Gabe up to Sam and Rachel as a sacrifice. I think targeting Gabe is in Kyle’s best interest. The group will want to target Tuku this week because of the numbers and comp beast Kyle is the obvious choice. If he can convince them that Gabe is the better option, he’ll buy himself another week on the island.

Sam is down for this plan, but Rachel has another target in mind. She sees Genevieve as a bigger threat to her game, which is understandable given that Genevieve has been targeting her for weeks. I’m biased when it comes to Genevieve, but I really think it is in Rachel’s best interest to keep her around for a bit. If Genevieve goes, the target will shift to Rachel because she is the other smart, strategic player in the game. Just a thought…

Kyle isn’t the only Tuku member throwing an ally under the bus. Back at camp, Caroline and Gabe are plotting Kyle’s elimination. They, like him, know it’s likely a Tuku member headed to Ponderosa tonight, and they want to make sure it’s not them. Sue is also gunning for Kyle, who she hates so much (haha). There is an amazing compilation of her trashing him and saying she hates him. Their feud is so funny!

Teeny struggles with Genevieve’s blindside

While the other castaways are talking about potential targets, Teeny is still fixated on last week’s blindside. She’s grieving her relationship with Genevieve, who she once trusted completely but now, feels unsure of her motives. In a confessional, she talks about how the betrayal brought other issues to the surface, mainly her struggles with gender identity and feeling out of place in the world. At the time of filming, Teeny used she/her pronouns but has since come out as nonbinary. Their pronouns on Instagram are listed as, “She/they/he.”

Who won Individual Immunity on Survivor 47, Episode 10?

Tonight’s Immunity Challenge features the famous rice negotiation where castaways can volunteer players to sit out of the challenge in order to receive a big bag of rice. Jeff started the negotiation by saying four players needed to sit out for them to receive the rice. None of the castaways want to forfeit their shot at immunity, so Kyle comes up with a counteroffer. He offers up everyone’s Shot In the Dark for the rice. Jeff says he will make that deal, which prompts the players to question if it’s a deal worth making. In the end, only Sam hesitates to take the offer. Gabe convinces him it’s a good deal and he caves. Wow! Shot In the Dark is no more on Survivor 47.

Kyle wins his fourth Individual Immunity Challenge in tonight’s episode. Damn, this guy is unbelievable. He’s safe at Tribal tonight, which means the group will have to set their sights on a new Tuku sacrifice. It’s great for Kyle in the short term, but if he ever loses an Immunity Challenge, there is no way they won’t vote him out. They would be idiots not to at this point.

Who went home on Survivor 47, Episode 10?

Back at camp, it’s time for the castaways to come up with a name for Tribal Council. The group wants to take out a big threat, putting Genevieve and Gabe in a tricky position. In a shocking twist, Caroline talks to Teeny about voting out Gabe. WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, is Caroline going to flip on him? In a confessional, she says that voting out Gabe will open up her game (I AGREE), but she’s worried about pissing off her number one, Sue, who is obsessed with Gabe for some reason. I love to see this from Caroline! Her trio with Sue and Gabe is hurting her more than helping her. She needs to cut him loose and work with the women.

Jeff reads the votes at Tribal, and it’s revealed that Gabe is the castaway headed for Ponderosa tonight. As he exits, he calls Caroline a snake, letting her know he’s aware she flipped. She may have lost a jury vote, but I still think voting Gabe out was in her best interest.

That’s what you missed on tonight’s episode of Survivor 47.

Survivor airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5, Episode 10 Recap: Audrey Hepburn Is Spinning in Her Grave

Welcome to the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5, Episode 10 recap. Last week, more arguing made lunch very uncomfortable, until Seth broke the ice with an asparagus joke. Things got heated at Todd and Bronwyn’s anniversary party, but the night ended well. Angie asked about Bronwyn’s daughter Gwen “reconnecting with her grandparents” and got shot down immediately. The group enjoyed a day at the Thermal IndyCar Race Track before flying commercial back to Salt Lake City, and Lisa had a tantrum about having to fly coach. Keep reading to see exactly what went down in RHOSLC Season 5, Episode 10: “Kiss Kiss, Bangs Bangs.”

What happened on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5, Episode 10?

In this week’s episode, Lisa fills Heather in on (her version of) the couples’ trip. Todd tells Bronwyn he was “disappointed” by her behavior with the women in Palm Springs. Mary hosts a “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” brunch so the women can work out their issues, resulting in varying degrees of success. Here are some of the highlights from RHOSLC Season 5, Episode 10.

It’s Lisa’s world and we all just live in it

Lisa and Heather meet up at a shop in Park City. “I missed you on the trip,” Lisa tells her. “I didn’t like being there without you. So, I felt super bad for me.”

Oh, of course, it’s always all about Lisa. Never mind Heather, stuck at home while everyone else was out in Palm Springs fighting with each other. You were better off, Heather.

Lisa says that Bronwyn told a “totally different story” about why Heather wasn’t there. But then Lisa totally rewrites the history of the trip, saying that Todd told John that unless she could work things out with Bronwyn, they would have to go home. That’s not what happened, Lisa. He just wanted you to stop screaming at everyone.

I hope somewhere down the line, Heather watches the episode and sees what really happened.

Todd’s disapproval is a bitter pill for Bronwyn to swallow

Over at Bronwyn’s, Todd is sitting on their back porch with his arms crossed defensively. It’s obvious that he’s only doing this for his wife, and he hates everything about being in front of the cameras.

Bronwyn tells him that she returned from their trip to California feeling “some kind of way about Lisa.” You’re not alone there, B.

“The 10 years we’ve been together,” Todd says, “I’ve never seen you act the way you acted this weekend. I’ve known John and Lisa for a long time, but for you to sit in the hot tub and scream back and forth with her is ridiculous … What did you accomplish?”

He thinks Bronwyn “ruined a perfectly nice afternoon.” He’s never seen her act that way and doesn’t find it “becoming.”

In her defense, Bronwyn says they started yelling, and she just didn’t know how to deal with “that scenario.” He thinks she should have just left “with your dignity.”

“Todd’s approval means a lot to me,” she says in a confessional. “This is incredibly hard for me to hear.”

Poor Bronwyn fights back tears. Todd feels like a parent scolding a child for coming in after curfew. His body language and entire demeanor is patronizing, at best.

So now, not only are Bronwyn’s feelings hurt by Lisa and the other women, but she’s “even more disappointed in myself that [Todd’s] embarrassed by my behavior.”

“They’re sucking you into this sewer that they live in of bullsh*t,” he continues. “And you’ve just got to step out of it … Friends should not bring out the worst in you.”

Wow, that was rough. Hopefully things get better for the couple down the line.

Mary’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s Brunch

Mary is having an Audrey Hepburn-themed party at her home. She wants everything to be very elegant and sophisticated. She’s micro-managing the party planners, rearranging the table décor to her taste.

Bronwyn says she’s normally “fashionably late,” because she likes to make an entrance. But she’s “scared” of Mary, so she’s on time, making her the first to arrive. It’s just her and the bartender. Awkward!

Meredith arrives with her hair pinned up and swept forward to create faux bangs, ala Audrey Hepburn.

“I thought I was really tricky coming with these little clip-in Audrey Hepburn bangs,” Bronwyn interviews. “But then Meredith one-upped me with whatever ‘octopus’ she put on her head.”

When Heather arrives, she goes down the line, hugging everyone but obviously skipping Bronwyn. So tacky, Heather. At least you can say hello!

When Mary makes a welcoming toast, Heather pipes up. “Thank you for including everyone, since we know that didn’t happen for the Palm Desert trip.” Ouch. Bitter much?

Britani’s also feeling some kind of way, since she mentions that not only was she not included in the Palm Springs trip, but no one even bothered to check in with her this week except Mary. She also brings up that she thought it was odd that Angie brought a bottle of wine to her Mormon family night.

“You’re doing three guys, and you drink,” Angie responds. “And you’re claiming to be some total Mormon?” Even Mary gasps at that one. I’m beginning to see how Angie got that center snowflake.

Heather just can’t get over being excluded on the Palm Springs trip

Bronwyn doesn’t like Britani because she called her a gold-digger for marrying such an older successful man.

Heather jumps in and asks, “Then why didn’t you have a prenup?”

Bronwyn says Heather should stop “knocking on that door, cause you’re not gonna like when I open it.”

Bronwyn says, “The fact that you don’t know my husband and you have opined multiple times…,” but Heather cuts her off.

“I know three things about your husband,” Heather claps back. “I know that he doesn’t have a prenup with you, I know that he collects Starbucks mugs, and I know he is an asshole on couples’ trips when he wants someone to leave … That’s enough for me to know that maybe I shouldn’t get to know him further.” Whoa! When did Heather get so aggro?

Bronwyn immediately knows it was Lisa who gave that information to Heather, though Lisa tries to play innocent.

“Can I just say this really quick?” Mary interjects. “Bronwyn does care if you guys get along … It matters to her.”

Heather’s bitter that Bronwyn didn’t invite her on the group trip, but Bronwyn says that she wanted Heather to come. “I even bought you a first class return ticket,” she adds. Don’t let Lisa hear that.

Heather says, “You can’t book a ticket for me because you don’t know my birthday!” She says no one in the group knows her real birthday because she’s lied about it to everyone.

Cue Whitney Googling Heather’s birthday. “Her birthday’s June 29, but I have no idea what year.”

So of course, I immediately Google “Heather Gay DOB.” It’s June 29, 1974, mother truckers! That was easy. But of course, even Google gets it wrong sometimes…

Heather and Bronwyn finally reach an understanding

Sadly, the discussion of Heather’s unused first class ticket opens up Lisa’s whining once again about the horrors of having to fly coach. “Just FYI,” Bronwyn says, “your husbands got gifts. You got gifts from me. I had the house, I took you to Indy. And anyone gives a flying f*ck where they sat for 67 minutes on the way home?”

Heather asks, “If it doesn’t matter where you sit for 67 minutes, why did you book yourself and your husband in first class and them all in coach?”

“Cause it was my goddamn credit card,” Bronwyn snaps back. Good point. She also paid for the house and everything else. Shut up, Heather.

Heather is just determined to be mad at Bronwyn and to never be friends with her. What happened to Heather? She used to give people a chance.

“I am fiercely defensive of my friendships,” Heather finally admits. “They are the family that has replaced the family that I have lost … So, I’m very cautious of new people coming into this group.”

The root of the problem is that Heather is hurt that she was left out of the trip. But Bronwyn tried to fix it with her before the trip, and Heather wasn’t having it. She basically attacked Bronwyn and left her in tears.

But at last, Heather admits that it was all a misunderstanding. She’s open to creating a clean slate and moving forward.

“Bronwyn and I clearly got off to a terrible start,” Heather interviews. “But so did me and Lisa … and look at us now … I’m hopeful that we can put this behind us and start fresh.”

Meredith Marks gets a taste of her own medicine

But the détente is short-lived, as Britani jumps up and demands, “You guys! What about me?”

“Oh my god,” Bronwyn says to Whitney. “Get this woman a puppy. She needs unconditional love.”

“Bronwyn,” Britani finally says, “I officially apologize for those mean things that I said about your husband.”

“Maybe we can all grow together,” Pastor Mary says. “That is the sole reason you’re here.” Mary says they all need to just listen to each other, work it out, and move on. Surprisingly, she’s the voice of reason.

Kumbaya lasts about 30 seconds before Angie and Meredith are screaming at each other again. This group is like playing Whack-a-Mole: when one problem gets settled, someone brings up something else to fight about.

When the screaming escalates and Mary can’t get them to stop, she says that if they won’t listen to her they can get out of her home. Oh! A taste of your own medicine, Meredith: “YOU. CAN. LEAVE!”

But Meredith decides to play the victim. Even though Mary begs her to stay and talk, Meredith sniffles through tears and says, “I have to go.”

Well, wasn’t that fun? Mary sums it up in a confessional: “She took them bangs with her. This is Audrey Hepburn, not The Flintstones.”

Sutton Stracke Says Kyle Richards ‘Tried to Hook up With Kevin Costner’

Kyle Richards tried to hook up with Kevin Costner, allegedly. At least, that’s what Sutton Stracke said shortly after the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 premiere.

Viewers, fans, and Kyle alike have all made a big deal of Kyle’s relationship status. In a way, that’s understandable, given her abrupt separation from Mauricio Umansky. Kyle only prompted further discussion due to her friendship with Morgan Wade.

But things quickly got out of hand for Kyle, to the point that she said she wouldn’t address Morgan on the show anymore. However, during the Season 14 premiere, Kyle broke her rule just to assure everyone that nothing was going on. And Sutton thinks there might be cause to believe her.

Sutton Stracke says Morgan Wade isn’t Kyle Richards’ “end-all-be-all”

On November 19, during the RHOBH After Show, Sutton, Garcelle Beauvais, and Jennifer Tilly discussed Kyle’s odd relationship with Morgan. Garcelle put forth a theory that Kyle just needed a friend. So, she confided in Morgan and soon fell for her, even though that wasn’t her intention at the start.

To that point, Sutton had some information of her own about Kyle’s relationship status. Sutton revealed, “Kyle and I had this conversation. She was in Aspen and Kevin Costner was there. She was like, trying to hook up with Kevin Costner.” Garcelle pointed out that Kyle was not the only one in the cast who wanted Kevin Costner. “I know!” Sutton said.

But Sutton’s greater point was, “I don’t think Morgan’s the end-all-be-all, because [Kyle] really was” trying to hook up with someone else. “I was like, ‘Wait a minute, hang on. It’s not all about Morgan. There’s some Kevin Costner mixed in there.’” Garcelle said, “Listen, we’ll get it with the way we can get it.” And Jennifer added, “It’s fun to be single. It’s a never-ending smorgasbord.”

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

Tamra Judge Reacts to Teddi Mellencamp’s Divorce Bombshell: ‘Both Amazing People’

Real Housewives of Orange County star and Two Ts In A Pod host Tamra Judge isn’t taking sides. Her podcast co-host, Teddi Mellencamp, was recently put into the spotlight for having an affair. And one would think Tamra would have a strong opinion. She is very vocal on the show and her podcast about drama in the Bravoverse. However, Tamra isn’t team Teddi or team Edwin Arroyave. She is Switzerland on the matter; straight up neutral.

Tamra Judge hopes Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave “get to work it out,” and she wants “the best for both of them”

It was a shocking turn of events when the news broke of Teddi’s affair. And the plot got thicker when it was revealed to be with her married horse trainer. Then more tea spilled. His wife was giving birth in another state while he was with Teddi. Talk about a tangled web.

Soon after, Teddi filed for divorce from her husband, Edwin. She also remained mum on the situation for a while. But eventually, she had to speak her peace. During her November 14 podcast, Teddi wasn’t going to “confirm or deny anything.” But she made it clear their kids were the top priority. As they should be.

Surprisingly, Tamra has been quiet on the matter as well. That is, until now. US Weekly reported what she had to say about her best friend and podcast partner. Tamra said, “I cannot really share too much. This is Teddi and Edwin’s life and they’ve been married for a long time and they have four kids and I just wish her and Edwin well.”

She added, “I hope that they get to work it out — however and whatever that looks like to them. I know that they’re both amazing people.” Tamra kept the feedback positive and continued to say nice things about Edwin. She shared, “Edwin and Eddie [Judge] have a podcast together. Eddie really loves Edwin and enjoys the [“The Eds”] podcast. I just want the best for both of them.”

When Teddi is ready to talk about the situation, she’s got the perfect podcast host in Tamra to spill the tea to.

Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
