Tonight's Immunity Challenge - the best so far - is "Pautakan. Pagulangan. Patitigan." Contesting castaways need to dig in the sand to find the Thai pillow within the 'ring', and race to go back to their respective tribal mats to earn points.
"Bawal ang sakitan. Walang personalan," were the words from Paolo before the challenge.
First of, male versus male, Kiko versus Jace. It was Jace who had an edge using his martial arts strategies against Kiko. But it was his "gulang," as he defined it himself, that won him the pillow. Jace requested for timeouts thrice to fix his loose shorts and Kiko courteously gave way.
1st timeout:
Jace: "Bro ayusin ko lang shorts ko. Laban tayo uli."
Kiko: "Sige, ok lang."
2nd timeout:
Jace: "Bro wait, natanggal uli. Ayusin ko lang."
Kiko: "Sige ayusin mo muna."
On his 3rd timeout:
Jace: "I'll just pull it."
Kiko: "Alright."
Jace: "Leave me some room"
Kiko: "Ok." (Idle)
Jace: "Kiks, I'm sorry man!", jumped away from Kiko, grabbed the Thai pillow and ran quick towards their tribal mat - gaining the first point.
Kiko's frustration of course was evident, unexpecting a dirty strategy from Jace. In the VTR interview, he thought that the handshake gesture they did before the fight is good enough to expect a fair play. He felt betrayed.
In the second round, Kiko yelled, "Mandaya na rin kayo" to tribemates Cris and Zita. Cris successfully brought the pillow to the Naak tribe mat that evens the game at 1 apiece. Special mention goes to Mama Zita's patintero skills that blocked a running bulky Vern on her way to their tribe.
John, on the 3rd round, easily crossed the pillow away from Naak giving them 2-1 lead.
The 4th round was a royal rumble involving the whole tribe against the other. Niña had to sit it out for fair head count. Slowly walking towards the ring, all were staring and guarding their rivals diligently. The girls found the pillow; everybody's suddenly on man-to-man defense.
Ipit-ipit, namimilipit, sumasabit.
John shouts "naiipit ako." Kaye cries, "umaarte lang yan!" Kiko exclaims, "Binabalian na ako. Binabalian ako!" Jace, Emerson and some other guys are pushing the girls. (Naba***an pa ata si Cris). Gigit and Cris are pulling each other from the back. Nikki, Charisse and the rest of the ladies are wrestling with the guys - Charisse being conscious protecting herself from unwanted exposure. Pocahontas pulls off every arm she could grab. Everybody's waving each other out hardly. (Naisip pa kaya nila ang tsansing?)
Paolo disqualified Jace for the ungentlemanly tactics he plays even with the girls. Emerson received a warning. They paused after Vern had nosebleed, but all maintained their position and hold with their opponent. Kiko and John tightly hold on the pillow. Kiko suggested to resume the fight.
On the emotional sidelight, Vhev poured some hard feelings with Emerson being the "traydor" in the Jarakay tribe. Cris confided her, and Vhev revealed "sinisiraan (ni Emerson) si Rob," and "sabi (ni Emerson) tanggalin si Kiko." She left us with the 'quotable quote' of the night: "Pinalaki akong palaban... Napupuno na talaga ako!"
On the resumption of the fight, Paolo disqualified Gigit and Cris for excessive fighting "away from the pillow". Kaye and Charisse were also put out of the game after too much fending and pulling.
Eventually, Jarakay won the second immunity challenge. Naak contested the decision, but the tapes showed clearly that the pillow belongs to Jarakay - thanks to John's (or was it Marlon's) foot.
