We couldn’t wait to see who got voted off Survivor Blood vs Water this week! In the Survivor 2013 spoilers video from CBS for episode 9, it was revealed there will be a double Tribal Council vote this week. We placed our bets earlier today on which castaways it would be who would get sent off to Redemption Island to battle to stay in the game — and it turns out we were spot on!
In the synopsis for Survivor Blood vs Water episode 8, “My Brother’s Keeper,” CBS teased us that this week will be full of “double the drama as castaways endure two tribal councils in one episode.” We also — whether we like it or not — saw the return of Redemption Island. That’s right, we aren’t done with that yet and we’re a little peeved it came back. The three castaways on the island will have to fight in another three-way challenge to see who gets eliminated next.
We also saw Gervase Peterson redeem himself from failing to eat a nasty grub on Survivor: Borneo by eating mealworms on this week’s episode. We were not particularly looking forward to screaming in horror and fast-forwarding through any bug eating. But alas, that was just the tip of the nasty eating challenge tonight.

This week’s Survivor 2013 synopsis for episode 8 also said that “castaways wonder if Vytas will exact revenge for his brother’s blindside.” Which brought us to our speculation on who would be voted out by the Tribal Councils on Survivor Blood vs Water this week. We were pretty sure after Aras Baskauskas was blindsided last week, Vytas Baskauskas was in big danger of getting the boot.
Based on the state of the game right now, very sketchy and unreliable Survivor spoilers, and the mass opinions of the show’s fans in various polls, forum comments and Twitter/Facebook posts — we were pretty sure Vytas would be toast this week. As for the second person who was voted off Survivor in week 8, we thought that will most likely end up being Tina Wesson. We thought there were enough clues out there to make us relatively strong in our belief that Tina would be eliminated before her daughter Katie Collins and time is growing short.
In the end, our predictions turned out to be correct and the two people who got voted off Survivor 2013 tonight were indeed Vytas and Tina. We’ll have to wait until next week, however, to find out who will win the next Redemption Island challenge and who will go home next.
