Kiki's Expedition Robinson ramblings
Week 6: This was the sickest episode ever
Good morning dear Ex Robjes. First of all, a big fat compliment/dance of joy/respect high five for your loyalty, because last week the website was almost bursting at the seams with visitors after my rambling about week 5 – and I’m putting it lightly. Still cool to see that you are just as obsessed with the filthy handsome eyes of Dave Roelvink, the one-liners of Bertie, the bitterball rap from Dio, and all the other craziness on the island.
But that is absolutely not what I’m going to talk about now. What then? MAN, about the most sneaky and brilliant episode with a double agenda that I’ve seen in ages. Let’s give a round of applause for the candidates, bunch of sneaky little devils, and also for the creators, hats off, to speak in JayJay language. The shit is going down! This needs to be talked about. And there will be spoilers, so if you haven’t watched yet, reading on is at your own risk.
Because goodness, there is so much to discuss. Let’s go back to yesterday: my new friend Bartho arrives on loser island, Elle (who has been crying more than talking in the last episodes) has had enough and is going back to her kids, and camp North wants so badly to get rid of VaJayJay (sorry Jay, it just sounds nice) that they are willing to lose the balance test on purpose to kick him out during the island council. Whoa, then the hate runs deep, huh. We call that Conspiracy 2.0. Kraantje Pappie immediately throws a spanner in the works with the statement: “I’m done here, just vote me out” and well, it’s not going to be that easy for him. Guess who gets voted out anyway: testosterone bomb JayJay. Too bad, dude.
So here we go again, the 11 points we need to ramble about this week:
1. First of all: am I the only one who is so gallantly happy that as a viewer you are involved in a conspiracy while the Sjaak in question still has to find out? Or should I seek help for this sadistic shit?
2. Bassie & Adriaan (JayJay and Kraantje Pappie) both got royally screwed in the same episode. We were -yes, yes, I see the haters on social media- secretly hoping for about five weeks. Then it happened and we still found it a bit sad for a second. Until JayJay started talking again on that bench.
3. So yes, what is the conclusion of this episode? We need the plot twist thanks to Twitter (you can cast your vote on one of the four options with a little nod):
– JayJay deserved this
– Alex just wants to go to McDonald's
– This episode is sad for Farmer Bertie
– Alex needs to change his tattoo to: ‘What if it doesn’t work’
I’ll be back next week with the results.
4. Meanwhile on loser island: an old man, a lesbian, and a young guy. Nicely put, Lex.
5. Oh and, Anna, you little fashionista, what the heck is up with the fluffy mountain socks up to your knees under that bikini? It’s FORTY degrees where you are. Oh uh, crap, did I miss a trend?
6. Oh and, you’re also quite good at scheming conspiracies, huh? Now those tests. The ones where your team wins without consulting the opponent that they won’t try. #hat’s an art.
7. Jalou, I’m going to adjust my opinion: I first thought you were quite a dull male type and now I really think you’re a cool chick. That should be said sometimes.
8. Didn’t work out, huh, with that Televizier-Ring, Geer and Goor? Despite the ad spam… I was secretly also team Floortje, sorry.
9. Honestly, that sausage and brown bean stew soup you wouldn’t even give to your worst enemy. Although I must say that Dave’s haute cuisine hot dog banana bread looks quite tasty. Okay, I’m hungry.
10. The best quote of the evening. “I vomited, I completely shat myself, everyone can know that, but I’m not going to give up.” Wonderful, honest Dave, I love you more every week.
11. By the way, shall we end with a prediction from now on? Next week: Farmer Bertie runs over JayJay with a homemade palm tree tractor on loser island, Chloé turns out to be able to talk normally after all, Dave has a diarrhea attack and Kraantje Tjappie? He’s chilling nicely in the pub. See you then!
