2024.05.21 16:46 SweetestJim Order didn’t arrive

Hi
It’s the first time an order hasn’t reached its destination for me (UK to US). The buyer has messaged requesting a refund.
I read the Etsy advice page which suggests the refund should be covered by Etsy. It says encourage the buyer to open a case with Etsy.
I checked the process from the buyers perspective, and it says ‘if the seller doesn’t respond in 48 hours, return here to open a case with Etsy’.
Surely I don’t just ignore the message for 2 days. Will they be able to open a case if I send a reply advising them? May be a dumb question but want to be sure.
Thanks 🙏

2024.05.21 16:45 gidgetistheoneforme ER, ‘Neighborhood Hospital’ or just keep doing what I’ve been doing for dehydration

I am a 39F Appx 160lbs Non smoker I don’t drink, ever (in recovery)
I worked the past few days on an outside patio (covered by a black awning). The outdoor temperature was around 80-85* and under the awning, the thermostat was reading 94. I’m a server so, the weekend was insanely busy (a lot of customers who couldn’t get a Mother’s Day reservation) and, in turn, didn’t get to eat or really drink anything besides a liquid IV because, I don’t have time to stop and eat or drink anything aside from a sip of water here and there. Yesterday I had a severe migraine all day, which carried into today, a temperature of 101*, that has subsided as of this morning, but today I can’t keep anything in me. I got some electrolyte replacement powder yesterday and drank 3 of those, alongside some plain water but, it doesn’t seem to be helping. Today is my only day off before I’m back to working on the patio for the next 6 days so, I wasn’t sure if I should go get some fluids so it doesn’t get worse. I was planning to, but then was reading on a nurse’s page that they get annoyed with people who come to the ER just because they haven’t drank enough water. Should I just bite the bullet and go? Note that I am still drinking electrolyte replacement drinks and water, as well as eating some food. Also, I take a potassium supplement but constantly test out of range for levels in my blood. Any suggestions on whether to go or what else I can do over the next 20 hours to get back to proper hydration levels are welcomed and appreciated. TIA

2024.05.21 16:44 CommercialBee6585 Reborn as a Fantasy General (Army-Building Isekai) Chapter 48

[Previous] [First] [Patreon]
The grand cathedral of the Unclean One stood tall and bright amidst the dark depths of Fleapit's underbelly. Its clangorous chimes, otherworldly glow, and stained glass windows depicting ratman heroes throughout time stood as a testament to the empire of filth and decay that now sought to stretch across the entire North Warrens.
Two bodies wrapped in ceremonial threads belonging to their respective clans lay upon the main altar to He-Who-Festers, a great statue of their horned, many-eyed God staring down at them as like a giant guardian watching His children finally sleep.
Before the grand altar, the Clansmen of the dead rats knelt, heads bowed, and fists clenched in reverence. They listened with total respect to the words being sung from the new Archpriest of Fleapit – the one who it was rumored would now be taking over completely from the old Prime Putrefact.
"Be letting the gaze of He-Who-Festers linger on these brave souls!" Deekius roared – his voice traveling through the bowels of the great church and causing every ratman assembled beneath him to tremble with fear and bloodlust alike. "They, your Clansmen, are giving their lives for the Shai-Alud! For a rat of the Underkingdom, there is being no greater glory! They are dying in righteous battle, filled with pox and drenched in the vile blood of our enemies! They are dying as true warriors of ratman Kingdom should!"
The soldiers and civilians huddled beneath the rat gave their thunderous thunderous assent, mailed claws knocking against their ribs and clanging on the plate of their armor. The Marrow warriors' fists beat the hardest, and the Gloomraava-touched rats of Glumrot screeched the loudest. Together, they looked the very picture of a unified people. One collective whole banded together by a shared purpose – vengeance.
Marcus watched the proceedings from the side, behind Deekius, his eyes passing over the warriors that lay supplicant before him. Whenever his stare passed over one of them, the soldier in question immediately dipped his head.
If they didn't believe in me before, Marcus thought. They do now.
Skeever stood to attention beside him, rubbing the phantom pains running up his dead arm.
"It is being a grim day for ratman Kingdom," the old warrior said.
Marcus spared him a fleeting look. "Indeed," he replied. "But rest assured, Skeever. Your comrades will be avenged."
The ratman didn't seem altogether reassured. But he held his tongue.
"You were asking me for report, Sire," he said, cringing as Deekius' raised his voice again to let his exhortations travel through the length of the cathedral. It was said that many of the civilians and warriors were actually assembled outside, unable to fit into the church's rows. The blinking crimson embers of their eyes could be seen if one focused enough on the windows.
"It is being as you said," Skeever continued. "Skegga is making push. A great mass of Kobolds are storming through to attack as we are speaking. Two forces are moving – one to assault Razork, and one to destroy Gulchnavel village. Skegga is seeking to throw everything he is having at us, abandoning forts he has left. Ix and Kobold scouts are reporting Tarakht and Gromelin are having only token defense left."
Marcus gave a curt nod. It is just as the Yokun had said. The last few nights of torture had borne some fruit, it seemed. Even if she still hadn't given him the exact answers he'd personally wanted.
"There are being two other things," Skeever continued.
"Do tell."
The old rat gulped, trying to ignore Deekius' continued screeching and the cheers of the ratmen who were listening. "The dwarf army Brother Festicus spoke of is on the move. They are destroying Clan Marrow fort Rekalspit on Eastern Border. Soldiers of Fort Spearclaw are saying that they have seen smoke from Dwarven encampments in the East. They are suggesting that Dwarf splinter assault force may be coming for us, but I am not being sure if we can trust this report."
"The guards of Spearclaw are among some of our most devout," Marcus replied. "If they think there's an attack imminent on our Eastern border, then we have to take the threat seriously."
Skeever nodded gravely. Marcus could tell the little rat was agitated. But a couple of Dwarves looking to pick apart the beleaguered ratman of the North weren't a concern. In fact, this situation might even present them with an advantage.
"And the second thing?" Marcus asked. "Tell me it's some good news, Skeever."
"It is…surprising, Sire," the rat said, watching as Deekius began to finish up his speech to rapturous applause and howls of glory. "Boss Skegga is leading one of his armies."
Now, Marcus's ears perked up.
"He is being seen heading South towards Razork," Skeever continued. "He is passing Razor Ridge within the next day according to scouts. I am thinking, this time, he means to push until we are obliterated."
Marcus wavered. "Force composition?"
Skeever shook his head. "His own army is numbering at least three thousand Kobolds," the ratman said gravely. "His detachment sent towards Gulchnavel – at least two thousand strong. They are having Skogsriders, slingers, and crossbows, Sire. Their vanguard is wearing armor plundered from dwarf supplies. Skegga must be having dwarven prisoners fit armor for his army. I…we are thinking this is being his Great Kleansing."
Marcus scoffed, a thin smile playing across his lips. "That arrogant toad…he's somehow gotten the idea that we're crippled, what? Because we lost the main Glitterpak swarm? Does he think me so basic as to base my entire campaign on the use of a single weapon alone?"
Skeever screwed up his face and twitched his scarred nose, "Sire?"
"Head to the War-council chambers, Skeever," Marcus said. "I shall meet you and King Shrykul there soon, after I've explained the situation to our soldiers."
Skeever hesitated. "'Our soldiers', Sire? I am thinking that the Clans are surely more divided now than ever. With both Talon commanders gone, the Kings of Marrow and Glumrot will be requesting that their soldiers be returned to them. They will be assuming we shall fall. I am thinking the situation is more grave than it has ever been before."
But Marcus, the veteran rodent noticed, never once dropped his smile even as he heard such concerns.
"Skeever," he said. "Have you so little faith in your Shai-Alud?"
"Ratmen of Clans Marrow and Glumrot!" Deekius howled. "To be closing our ceremony, let me be presenting you your General. Your savior that is coming to lead us in this darkest hour. Let us be welcoming SHAI-ALUD MARCUS!"
Later, Skeever would reflect on what he was about to see as Marcus then stepped forward and allowed Deekius to take his hand in his paw, absorbing the chants of reverence that issued from the throat of each and every ratman in the cathedral that night and, probably, each and every ratman in Fleapit who heard the Shai-Alud's name. Lately, it was a name spoken with the same degree of respect afforded even to the Unclean One.
And Skeever watched as the man they revered gave a single wave of his hand.
The crowd instantly went silent.
"Ratmen of Fleapit!" he shouted. "Your Shai-Alud has come to address you on this most gravest of days. On this day two heroes to our glorious cause have fallen, cut down by the dark blades of our enemies sent by Boss Skegga. And that fat toad even now gloats in premature victory. He is coming for us, warriors of the Unclean. Make no mistake of that."
Murmurs of fury permeated the crowd. Skeever noted how their ears twitched to hear Marcus's every word, their eyes hanging on his every subtle movement. When he mentioned Skegga coming for them, the crowd grew vicious. Skeever could sense the building tension even from as far back as he stood.
"Yes," Marcus continued. "He believes he has already won. He believes that crippling our leadership has struck a blow against our nation that we cannot recover from. He believes you will each lay down and offer your putrid bellies to him as he climbs over these walls and takes everything you care about. I ask you, men of Marrow, men of Glumrot, are you going to submit to him thus?"
The answer was so obvious that Skeever didn't have to hear it. Yet, still, when it came, it came with a fury the Talon-Commander had not heard in an age, not since the last Skittering was called.
"NO!"
They took up Marcus's name in a battle chant again, most of them already gripping their weapons before he even made his next announcement.
"Then the time has come for you to show this fat toad and his underlings who exactly you are," he said, pointing a gloved finger at the crowd that seemed to be directed at every ratman down there. "A time comes in all our lives when we must stand up – we must stand together, shoulder to shoulder with our brothers, and take up arms against a common threat. That common threat is here, Brothers. It is moving, and soon it will be upon our doorstep. We need an army united in a singular purpose, with a leader that can direct us towards the target of our righteous vengeance. I ask you, now, who do you wish to lead you in this time?"
"THE SHAI-ALUD!" the ratlings screamed – till the scream became an echo that weaved like a ghost through the streets of Fleapit so even the youngest rat could hear. "THE SHAI-ALUD! THE SHAI-ALUD!"
"Then let your will be done!" Marcus then shouted into the crowd. "King Shrykul has bestowed upon me the rank of First Talon! I will stand with you in the midst of the battle to come, and we shall defeat this menace once and for all. We shall push him back until he falls off the edge of this world. And we shall do so not as one Clan or another, but as a single entity. Ratmen – look at the Brother beside you. He is not just your brother in arms, now. He is not just your cousin from another Warren. Now, he is an extension of your very self. He is a weapon that shall come down upon the head of Skegga just as you are. He – and all of us here – tonight bear witness to history being made. Your time is now, ratmen! The time of your Empire has come!"
Skeever staggered back, absorbing the words of his Sire even as his ears failed to truly understand them.
First-Talon…
A name that granted power second only to that of a King of the Clans…a name reserved for only the most dire of circumstances.
Skeever looked at the pair of dead commanders beneath him, and then caught Deekius's smiling snarl as he watched Marcus raise his fists high amidst the screaming chorus of the crowd.
"It is being glorious, Brother, is it not?" the rat-priest said. "Be marking this moment, Brother commander, for history is being made."

2024.05.21 16:17 VincentDemarcus Why would you listen to felix? He locked himself in a room for 3 days, he wasn’t credited to preach the Bible. Checkmate - we shouldn’t listen to one who is not credible right?

Did felix study or learn the early pages of the original Bible? Don’t you understand the simple context, that your verses from Isaiah could also be interpreted differently.
You’re simply not a Bible scholar to attest to this. If your administration doesn’t want to lead by example then it’s okay to have questions about your church as a whole.
At the end of the day, we have the thing called “freedom of speech”. That’s why a lot of people would like to speak and discuss, about INC as a whole topic.

1.) there’s actually a lot of minister’s children lingering on Reddit. 2.) im not gonna listen to felix I’m sorry because I can’t find any direct evidence that he’s the last messenger (Isaiah has a lot of context and you’re not a minister right? So let’s not get biblical at this point, and 3.) we should be given the fair share to ask questions about INC and to discuss things within our circle .

im not the one defending your faith, did you forget that? I actually took courses in secondary school, a few courses (a general class for religion and a catholic course) before I went to college. I’m just saying be open minded right?

Sorry but do what you have to do, you don’t understand one simple concept- your Church administration is nowhere to be found right?

And why would I speak on Rauff’s behalf? Could you also speak on Eddy’s behalf? We’re not the ones defending the INC, you are. Would you be able to ask your church admin to come here, You can’t right- move along INC defender trueiglesianicristo

2024.05.21 16:17 namesnotrequired Checklist of documents to be uploaded to VFS for UK Student visa

Hello,
Got my biometrics day after. I've already uploaded a bunch, and I just wanted to know if I'd missed out on anything. This is from India, if that's helpful.
No place to upload a scan of the passport so I haven't done that. The upload page is ambiguous here - it says 'Travel document of ' but doesn't actually give an option to upload. Please suggest if this is something I should upload under additional documents or something anyway, so as to not get charged when I'm there for the appointment.
A scholarship offer letter, which gives details of fee waiver and the stipend.
A signed letter I sent to the scholarship committee, accepting the scholarship.
Their email acknowledging my acceptance.
Since it'll take a month for the scholarship to kick in, bank statements and a letter from the bank showing what my minimum balance was over the previous 28 day period.
TB certificate
A cover letter where I explain the above part - details of financials
I'm above 18 and this is for a PhD, so nothing involving my parents
Did I miss something?
Edit: my English language ability and my previous qualifications have been assessed by my university and the CAS mentions this - that's why I am not uploading anything related to that. As for accommodation, i haven't booked anything yet - but in the visa questionnaire I've given a description of where I'm likely to stay (student housing)

2024.05.21 16:13 Loser_Baby_19 The Unfortunate and Devastating Consequences of Private Monkey Ownership

Hello all.
As a lover of all animals including non-human primates, I feel that it is my duty to continue to bring awareness to the devastating consequences of private monkey ownership. In particular, I have been focusing on one individual who has made his financial profit off of what I feel is his continued exploitation of his capuchin monkeys.
Despite this owner's persistent belief that I have some "hidden agendas" against him in particular, the reason why I have fixated on him is simple (and I have made that clear repeatedly in the past). Out of all the primate pet vloggers on YouTube and social media, this owner's capuchin monkeys especially Monkey Boo appear to exhibit the most troubling displays of behavior and appearance. I have not witnessed any other capuchin monkey vloggers whose monkeys exhibited these same abnormal behavioral patterns. In fact, I have previously stated that I used to be a huge fan of this owner's YouTube channel, and donated money and gifts to his monkeys years ago in support. Thus, my only 'agenda' is my genuine concern for a capuchin monkey I had grown to become very fond of, and my desire to get Monkey Boo the help he truly needs despite his owner continuing to cover up his true condition.
His YouTube channel has the most subscribers out of all capuchin monkey vloggers, and he and his capuchin monkeys have been the focus of several somewhat flattering articles on media outlets such as Vice. And despite this owner's awareness of this subreddit and my posts, he stubbornly continues to gaslight, lie, and deny that any of his monkeys, especially his most popular monkey, Boo, are sick in any way shape or form. He is quick to antagonize and block anyone on his social media channels that questions the appearance and behavior of Monkey Boo, despite many of these concerned viewers being long time dedicated fans of Boo and only having genuine concerns for Boo's well being.
And despite Monkey Boo first showing signs of mental/emotional distress and disorders back in 2022, this owner has continued to gaslight, lie, and cover up the true status of Boo. Instead of addressing viewer concerns, being transparent, and getting professional help for Boo, this owner has engaged in and continues to engage in covering up Boo's true condition. Going on two years now, this owner posts old video clips of Monkey Boo in happier and healthier days on a daily basis to his YouTube channel (to cover that he can no longer film Boo like before).
The following are some media evidence to back up myself and others claims that Monkey Boo is not in a good state of mind these days. These media clips clearly show Monkey Boo exhibiting classic signs of non-human primate stereotypy behavior, repetitive type behaviors that indicate mental/emotional illness and distress.
Self hugging and excessive scratching (2022)
Self hugging and persistent high pitched screams of distress (2022)
Self hugging, persistent high pitched screams of distress, and head whipping (2022) (despite his owner's misrepresentation of head whipping as a 'happy' state, head whipping/twirls indicated a disturbed mental state https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3635140/).
Scratching, head twirls, unpredictable fidgety behavior, and a sense that this monkey may have been somehow sedated (2024)
Self hugging and displays of feabeing intimidated (2024)
Video showing repetitive circular movement patterns, a classic sign of abnormal behavior in captive wild animals including non-human primates. On the left is a 2017 video clip from the Tregembo Wild Animal Park in Wilmington, North Carolina (which continues its business to this day despite PETA's formal complaints). On the right is a clip from a relatively recent live video feed of Monkey Boo in his cage (it appears Boo's owner can no longer film Boo outside of his cage unless seemingly restrained or sedated).
Classic circular movement pattern of disturbed captive non-human primates
The most disturbing visual cue about the unhealthy mental state of Monkey Boo was brought to my attention by fellow subreddit poster FAH-Q-All (a great and wonderful resource and individual with nothing but the most genuine of concerns for Monkey Boo). Alopecia, or hair loss, is a very noticeable symptom of mental/emotional stress, distress, and illness, typically trigged by stress. FAH-Q-All mentioned that the condition and appearance of a monkey's tail can be indicative of an unhealthy mental/emotional state. And sure enough, when I compared old photos of Monkey Boo to Boo in 2024, the patchy condition of his tail is clearly evident.
Comparison pictures of Monkey Boo's tail. Patchy hair loss in top row pictures from 2024, full and healthy tail in bottom row pictures from 2020.
Comparison pictures of Monkey Boo's tail. Patchy hair loss in top row pictures from 2024, full and healthy tail in bottom row pictures from 2020.
This patchy tail is highlighted towards end of this video clip (that also features head whipping and scratching):
Monkey Boo video clip complete with head whipping, scratching, and noticeably patchy tail (2024). It appears this monkey is also restrained (similar to another 2024 vide of Boo eating a banana).
And the patchy hair loss is not isolated to Monkey Boo's tail. Boo's hair loss is also quite noticeable on his scalp. Notice how exceedingly thin Boo's scalp looks in the top row pictures from 2024 (as well as his glazed/dead eyes look). By comparison, notice how full Boo's scalp was full and vibrant four years ago on bottom row pictures (I deliberately put both a dry and wet scalp pictures so that no one can claim that the thinning appearance in the above pictures was due to being wet):
Balding Boo pictures above row, healthy scalp Boo from four years ago below.
And just a few comparison pictures of Monkey Boo from four years ago to what he looks like nowadays"
Monkey Boo in happier days four years ago top row, what Boo looks like now in 2024
Monkey Boo in happier days in center from over four years ago, ghoulish looking and acting Monkey Boo from 2024 in surrounding pictures.
Another comparison video, notice the huge difference in general appearance, behavior, and demeanor from Monkey Boo from four years ago to how Monkey Boo is now.
Monkey Boo in happier days four years ago. On a side note, thanks to this subreddit this owner no longer feeds his capuchin monkeys bananas. Bananas, despite its popular stereotype as being an 'ideal' food for non-human primates, is actually terrible for them.
Monkey Boo in 2024, can apparently no longer be filmed outside of his cage due to his unpredictable behavior. A huge difference compared to younger Monkey Boo.
As a side comparison, this picture shows what two relatively healthy capuchin monkeys should look like. Note the vibrant, full hair growth and general calm appearance. The white capuchin monkey on the right was actually 30 years of age at that time (2014) and was rescued from a life of research at a major university. It is not a good look when a 30-year old capuchin monkey looks far healthier than a 14-year old capuchin monkey. Despite Monkey Boo's owner and his fan base trying to infer that Boo is 'slowing down,' a captive capuchin monkey that is slowing down at only 14 years of age is indicative of terrible living conditions.
Two healthy looking capuchin monkeys by comparison.
In closing, I want to once again reiterate that the only 'agenda' I have with this and past posts in regards to this particular monkey and owner is because of my genuine concern for Monkey Boo's overall health. I have no affiliations with any other primate owner or vlogger, nor am I an official member of any animal rights groups. I used to be a huge fan of monkey vloggers like the owner of Monkey Boo. I was captivated by Boo's human like antics and felt it was all in adorable good fun.
However, once Monkey Boo started showing signs of mental/physical/emotional distress, and his owner stopped regular updates on Boo's YouTube channel, I started to become concerned. I found other individuals had also been raising concerns two years ago (and they continue to raise concerns to this day). I also noticed that Boo's owner denied anything was wrong with his monkey and bullied and blocked anyone from Boo's social media pages that raised genuine concerns for Boo's welfare. It was this inexplicable and detestable behavior by Monkey Boo's owner that completely changed my opinions of him, and spurred my own research into capuchin monkeys. I educated myself about these magnificent wild animals, the smartest of the New World Monkeys, and had my eyes opened to the devastation of wild monkeys being kept as private pets.
If Monkey Boo's owner had been transparent from the start and acknowledged his fan's concerns for Boo's welfare, and graciously accepted these concerns and advice and sought professional help for Boo, I would never have thought to contribute to this subreddit. There is absolutely no question in my mind that had Monkey Boo's owner done this, Boo's fan base would have completely understood and embraced both Boo and owner. Boo's fan base would have gladly donated money and resources to get Boo the help he needed, and would have offered unconditional support regardless of what happened.
Instead, Monkey Boo's owner decides to take the cowardly route, and to this day continues to engage in deceitful behavior to the detriment of Monkey Boo. This owner's other monkeys also appear to be in sub-par condition, particularly Monkey Meela who looks very obese. Again, no other capuchin monkey on YouTube/social media shows the extreme level of physical/mental/emotional abnormality as Monkey Boo does, thus my continued highlighting of this particular capuchin monkey and his owner.
Capuchin monkeys in the wild can walk on average up to two miles daily foraging, patroling, protecting, mating, etc. These pet capuchin monkeys by comparison are stuck in their cages for many hours a day and night, feed species-inappropriate foods and in excessive portions, and are denied the companionship of their collective troops necessary for their mental/physical/emtional well being. All for financial gain on YouTube and social media with no true regard of the well being of their animals.
Thank you all for your time.

2024.05.21 16:10 CrochetLolly Book with Fantasy Creatures and Plot

Please help me find a book I read from the library sometime around 2015-2018.
The book had a long title. Somehow I remember the title being something along the lines of "Mr. _____ Journal/Diary/Adventure of Strange Creatures", but I could be remembering wrong since I have been unable to find it. The cover was not particularly detailed. I think it basically just featured the title of the book in large letters on the center. Maybe a blueish or grayish background?

This book was not just a listing of creatures; it had a plot. The main character (a man) was travelling around and documenting strange creatures he came across (or maybe he found bones of the extinct creatures and was trying to figure out what made them extinct?). Every so often the book would have a black and white sketch of a strange creature he came across.

The book was not a book for really really young kids because it had a lot more text than pictures. I think the book was maybe about 100-200 pages or so, so it wasn't super long or super short.

The creatures were not the typical fantasy creatures like dragons, griffon's, etc. They were completely original. I remember 4 creatures in the book.
There was some kind of troll creature that lived near the ocean. The trolls found and collected magnetic rocks. I think the magnetic rocks would lure fish closer to them or maybe they were a status symbol of some sort? But gradually the magnets made the trolls get shorter and shorter because of their strong magnetic pull. The magnets probably made the troll creature get extinct because the trolls became too short.
There was also a really big creature with a tiny head. I think the creature was called a "Pinhead".
There was also a cute dandelion puff bunny. They were so light-weight and small that they would get carried away in the wind. I think the bones of this creature were so small and lightweight that the main character almost didn't discover them.

And finally there was a dog-like creature which became the main characters pet. This is probably the only creature that was not extinct?

I remember one scene where the main character found someone he liked. But his dog-like pet was either jealous or bored, so he turned green and stinky to scare away the main character's girlfriend. I believe the main character then had to go and asked his pet something along the lines of: "Was that really necessary?" The dog could not talk.
Please help me find this book, it has been bugging me for years!

In a 9-5-4-3-1 vote, Staci & Sugar are eliminated, while Max wins immunity in a 3-3-2-1-1 vote, as Sugar is eliminated.
After the challenge, Topher and Scott are in first class, waiting for Sugar. Sugar finally shows up and says that she would’ve been here sooner had someone not barfed all over her, which Topher apologizes for. Scott then tells everyone to get down to business. Scott asks who they should try to eliminate, and Topher suggests Staci, as she’s a bigger threat than Cameron & that she’s also level-headed, something that most of everyone else is struggling with. Scott agrees with this, as he believes that it should be easy to convince Max to vote for her. Scott tells Topher to do this and adjourns the meeting.
Max is walking around the plane, and Topher finds him in the dining cabin. Topher asks him to sit down, and Max does so. Topher then asks Max who he’s voting for, and Max says Sugar. Topher then asks if Max will forget what Staci had done to him in Niagara Falls, and for a moment, it looks as if Max is truly convinced. We then get a flashback of the things Staci has done to help Max, and in the confessional, Max rhetorically says that he can’t believe that he was that close to believing Topher’s lies. Back with Topher though, Max puts on a facade of agreement, telling Topher that he’s in. Over the P.A, Chris tells the contestants to go vote.
At the elimination ceremony, Sugar & Staci are the last ones not safe. Sugar, Scott, & Topher look smug, and everyone else looks worried. When Chris announces a tie though, this shocks everyone. Scott angrily says to Topher that he thought Topher had it under control, and Max just realized that he forgot to ask Staci & Anne Maria to vote for Scott, making them all facepalm angrily.
While this is going on, Chris is on the phone with the producers, who are hounding him. Sugar then confidently says that she can take down Staci in a tiebreaker, which gets Staci to notice that Chris is still on his phone. The contestants are now yelling at Chris to do his job, and when Chris gets off the phone, he explains that due to budget constraints, he has to eliminate both Sugar & Staci from the game.
This pleases exactly no one, and Chris is barraged with angry shouts from all corners of the room. Sugar then asks how eliminating her helps the budget, and Chris cites added weight to the plane, more food needed, and simply admitting that he finds Sugar & Staci both annoying. Sugar firmly refuses to leave before Chris gets Chef to shove her out of the plane, prompting Staci to quickly jump out as well.
In first class, Scott is pissed off at Topher. He mocks Topher, quoting how he said that everything was under control, and that only Staci would be eliminated. Scott says that the only reason that the alliance will still be a thing now is simply for self-preservation. In economy class, Cameron tells Dawn, Staci, & Max that to bring down Scott and Topher, they need to be on the same page, which Cameron apologizes for not making clearer before Staci was eliminated. Cameron & Dawn put their hands in the middle, with Max & Anne Maria doing so as well. In the confessional, Max states that Scott better watch out, as his days are numbered. In the cockpit, Chris asks some questions before signing off.
After the credits, we see Sugar & Staci land on the Great Wall of China. Sugar laments about how unfair her elimination was, getting Staci to tell her to shut up, as Sugar has complained about it for the umpteenth time. Sadie then shows up and tells the bickering duo that they need to hurry up, as their flight departs in 5 hours. Staci says that she can’t wait to be back in Canada, and Sugar hopes that the hotel they’ll be staying at is nice. Sadie tells Staci that they won’t be back in Canada quite yet and tells Sugar that having a nice hotel should be the least of her worries. Sugar asks what this means, and Sadie replies with “you’ll see”, before they all walk off, and the screen cuts to black.
African Lying Safari
The episode begins in economy class, where Dawn & Cameron are cuddling each other, Anne Maria filing her nails, and Max looking pensive. A slightly worried Max lays out this hypothetical to Anne Maria – After Topher is eliminated, Scott gets immunity. In that case, who do you vote for? This is stumping Max, as he is cool with everyone here besides Scott. Anne Maria agrees, saying some tough choices would have to be made here. In first class, Topher tells Scott that with everyone else reuniting, it’s every man for himself, as their two votes won’t change anything. Scott agrees, and he tells Topher not to be surprised by any tricks he pulls.
Once the plane lands, Chris welcomes them to Tanzania, home to the Serengeti Plains. Anne Maria arrives slightly late, as she topped off her pouf as they landed. Chris introduces the first challenge, which he named "Sock-et To Me." This challenge entails going over to a pile of plums, and grabbing as many as possible while dodging the soccer balls that will be kicked at you by contestants. Scott mocks the soccer balls, so Chris beans Scott with one, reveling in his yelp of pain.
Topher goes up first, and he gracefully dodges all of the soccer balls, getting a giant pile of plums. Cameron is calculating where to kick the ball, and when he figures it out, the soccer ball hits Topher in the shins, making him fall & drop the plums. Cameron is up next and isn’t even able to get any plums before he’s knocked down by a speeding soccer ball from Topher. Max is now going and while he stays upright this time, he is only able to get half a dozen plums, as he dropped most of them.
Scott is next, and while he hits Cameron with Dawn’s ball, he gets beaned in the head by Anne Maria & Max at the same time, making him drop his plums. Dawn goes, and nearly makes it, but trips over a ball kicked by Scott Anne Maria starts running, deflecting all the balls with her hair. She grabs some plums, doing the same thing as she runs back to where she started. Max is speechless at this, asking how Anne Maria made her hair do that, with her saying it’s a mix of having good hair, and good product. Anne Maria hands Max a mostly empty can, and in the confessional, Max is flabbergasted when Anne Maria’s hairspray offers a 72-hour hold.
The plums are then used to smash through gourds, and whoever does so first wins an advantage. While Cameron accidentally hits Chef, Anne Maria barely puts a dent in her gourd, frustrating her. After a Chris induced miss, Scott perfectly strikes his gourd, getting six tranq balls & a slingshot for his troubles. Max strikes his gourd soon after, getting four & a slingshot. Topher hits his next getting three, Anne Maria strikes her gourd with her cricket bat, getting two, and since Dawn & Cameron couldn’t crack their gourd, they each get one ball, but no slingshot. Chris tells the couple that they’ll have to throw the tranq ball with enough force to pop it, and Cameron says that’s nearly impossible.
Chris then announces that the tranq balls will be used to knock out the Max clone, who according to Chris, is “bigger and better”, as he’s been genetically mutated. The Max clone is even wilder now, with his tracksuit being half-torn, glowing green eyes, and no shoes. As Chris explains that whoever knocks out the Max clone gets invincibility, said clone is seen attacking an intern. Chris tells them to go, with Dawn & Cameron teaming up, and Anne Maria & Max doing the same thing. Topher offers to team up with Scott, but the Farm Boy rebuffs him. This ends up being a mistake however, as Topher has stolen Scott’s tranq balls.
With Scott, he is walking about when he hears a rustling in a bush near him. He tells the clone to come out, but is instead met with a lion. Scott then goes into his back pocket, finding nothing. Scott tries to calm the beast down, but eventually runs away. Meanwhile, Max has finished setting traps all around the area. Anne Maria is skeptical about this, and Max asks “who in their right mind could resist a Mallowmar?”
Dawn & Cameron are looking for the Max clone, and when the lion is behind Dawn, she asks if Cameron has recently brushed his teeth. Cameron asks why, and Dawn looks behind them, seeing the same lion that terrorized Scott. The two lovers run away, but Cameron gets caught in one of Max’s traps, making Max wince. Anne Maria gives Max an “I told you so” look, and Max offers to help get Cameron out. He asks if anyone has a knife, and at that moment, a baboon grabs Cameron, greatly angering Dawn. Dawn & Max promise to find something to free Cameron before running off.
The girls and boys run into each other and, mistaking the others for their intended target, hit each other, knocking each other out with tranquilizing balls. Chris chooses this time to make the contestants sing, despite being still stunned. While being in their stunned state, the contestants sing “Wake Up”, which is about exactly what it sounds like. Chris then warns the contestants that they have about an hour to catch the Max clone before the plane leaves, ditching them. Chris offers to watch the action back at the jet, which Chef obliges to.
Dawn runs off to save Cameron, saying that she can handle it, as her boyfriend will not become baboon food. Anne Maria & Max run to the right, while Topher & Scott both inadvertently go left. As Max & Anne Maria go right, they turn around, as they see footprints going left.
With Dawn, she has made it up to the baboon den at the top of the tree, and Cameron tells Dawn to not make any sudden movements, as the baboon really likes him. Dawn tries to explain the situation to the baboon, but it gets defensive, holding Cameron tighter. This is too far for the Moonchild, who rips Cameron out of the baboon’s hands, then kicks it in the nuts. As Dawn & Cameron make it down the tree, the baboon is shrieking.
Topher & Scott both see the Max clone from a distance, as they’re on a hill. Topher steps up to fire, but Scott shoots Topher before shoving him down the hill. Topher angrily shouts at Scott for this, and he then notices the Max clone, which is right next to him. Topher tries to plead with him, but the clone mercilessly & viciously beats up Topher, which Max & Scott are cringing at from the top of the hill.
Scott tries to take advantage of this, but Max snipes him from behind before doing the same to the Max clone, winning Max the challenge & invincibility. Chris goes to announce this, but only Max & Anne Maria are listening, as Topher & Scott are in a sleeping heap with the clone, and Dawn & Cameron haven’t made it back yet.
Vote for anyone besides Max, vote for someone to get immunity for the next episode, and feel free to come up with any plot points for the next episode. (Rapa-Phooey!)
