SURVIVOR MUSHROOM KINGDOM Episode Twelve: "Cranky Kong's Cavern"

[SLAM!]

@Asyulus @DAJK @The Dark Alfred @Fancyarcher @Goldenhour36 @Rorschach

 

Cranky Kong: All right, survivors. Go into this here cavern (points cane) and find me the Muffin of Macguffin! Whoever finds it wins immunity! Now get goin' whippersnappers!

 

DAJK, The Dark Alfred, Goldenhour36, and Rorschach huddle up.

Rorschach: So elcaballero's out. Now what?

Goldenhour36: Beat Fancyarcher somehow, that's what!

DAJK: Yeah. If we all split up in the cavern, we'll have a better chance at finding the Muffin.

The Dark Alfred: Shroom up, muchachos. We got a tough one ahead.

DAJK and The Dark Alfred consume two and one red mushrooms respectively.

 

Meanwhile, Asyulus and Fancyarcher meet up.

Asyulus: The battle lines are clear.

Fancyarcher: Yep. Ain't nothing secret.

Beat.

Fancyarcher: I'm the clear comp beast this season. Why aren't you targeting me?

Asyulus: Friendship means little when it's convenient.

Fancyarcher smiles. They share a fist bump.

Fancyarcher: Let's get this Muffin for elcaballero.

Asyulus: Let's do it!

Asyulus and Fancyarcher consume two and three red mushrooms respectively.

 

Everyone enters the cavern, but they all branch off in different ways.

Goldenhour36: This hallway looks pretty boulder-sized...

He steps on a panel. A boulder rolls toward him.

Goldenhour36: Why does it always have to be boulders?

He runs away from the boulder.

 

The Dark Alfred finds a room with mushrooms in it.

The Dark Alfred: Ah yeah, time for a trip!

He trips out, so he's not finding the muffin...

 

Then Asyulus and DAJK battle against giant spiders.

Asyulus: I can't be-web there's giant spiders here...

DAJK: Comedy isn't for you, Asyulus...

 

Then Fancyarcher and Rorschach both reach the room where the muffin is... But there's a roulette wheel on the table.

Fancyarcher: There's a note here...

Rorschach: Will you do the honors?

Fancyarcher reads the note.

Fancyarcher: "One of you must bet on red, and the other bets on black, and whoever gets the ball gets the muffin."

Rorschach: Talk about high stakes...

They make their bets and spin the wheel.

 

SLAM!: Here's the tentative results:

Spoiler

RORSCHACH WINS IMMUNITY BY A .6% DIFFERENCE!

 

Asyulus (+6%)	0.7230076965
DAJK (+6%)	0.7320602336
The Dark Alfred (+3%)	0.6907695372
Fancyarcher (+9%)	0.751238243
Goldenhour36	0.7128153535
Rorschach	0.757875078

 

(DISCLAIMER: These were calculated with the estimate numbers of No Hard Feelings and Past Lives. Because I'm jumping the gun here, if actuals release before voting ends, and it makes Fancyarcher the winner, then both Fancyarcher and Rorschach will be safe for the week out of fairness. As of now, plan for Fancyarcher not being safe. But Rorschach is safe this week no matter what, out of fairness to him.)

 

Note that Tuesday predictions aren't technically due into estimate numbers release tomorrow morning, so you can still enjoy Independence Day if you are celebrating! But get those Tuesday predictions in because you have no idea what's going to happen!

 

 

 

Here's the

TRIBAL COUNCIL

 

SLAM!: Welcome to tribal council, where one of you will be eliminated from Survivor: Mushroom Kingdom.

Goldenhour36 eyes Rorschach.

Rorschach glares at Fancyarcher.

Fancyarcher glares at DAJK.

DAJK glares at Asyulus.

Asyulus glares at his jar of milk (it's empty).

The Dark Alfred glares at something he's sees during his bad trip.

SLAM!: All right, it's time to vote!

Everyone votes.

 

 

SLAM!: All right, if anyone has an advantage or an immunity idol and would like to play it, now would be the time to do so.

Goldenhour36: (waits patiently)

DAJK: (purses lips)

The Dark Alfred: ...

 

Item Play #1

Spoiler

 

 

The Dark Alfred: We all know where the votes are landing, so I'll use this ice flower. You know, the one I earned by getting the best Polite Society prediction in Week Four!

SLAM!: By playing the Ice Flower, Dark Alfred will forfeit his vote this week, and he will be able to play an extra vote next week.

 

 

Item Play #2 and #3

Spoiler

 

 

Fancyarcher: I'm playing two poison mushrooms...

SLAM!: ...On who?

Fancyarcher: On DAJK.

(Everyone gasps.)

DAJK: Huh? Why me?!

Fancyarcher: It's that coin total, dude. I gotta make sure you can't use those coins against me!

Asyulus: Oh, uh, I'll add three more.

DAJK: Nooooooooo!

Goldenhour36: Don't worry, DAJK. We have the numbers this week, so you're safe unless Fancyarcher wins immunity, or unless...

DAJK: Huh? Unless what?

Rorschach: 😶‍🌫️

 

DAJK TAKES A -15% DECREASE

 

 

Item Plays #4 and #5

Spoiler

 

 

 

Fancyarcher holds up two super stars.

The Koopas fall out of their seats!

Rorschach: Two idols?! How?!

SLAM!: I'm bringing out two eliminated players to help explain why Fancyarcher has two idols.

@Cap and @Morieris enter the arena.

DAJK: Cap! You must explain!

Cap: Okay, so here's what happened.

 

Flashback to Cap forgetting to submit weekend predictions for the second time.

Cap: I'll just take twelfth place, I miss America.

SLAM!: Okay! This season, there's a twist called:

 

THE SECRET SUPERSTAR GIVEAWAY TWIST

 

SLAM!: You're allowed to secretly give your idol to another player who's still in the game.

CAP: Hmmm... I pick Fancy.

 

Cut to Fancyarcher extending out his hand to Cap in episode six.

Fancyarcher: Good game, Cap. You played well.

They shake hands. Something startles Fancyarcher, and Cap nods to him as she walks away. We cut to Fancyarcher sneaking off to the barracks alone, where he unravels his hand and finds the invincibility star Cap gave him!

 

Fancyarcher: And I'm playing Cap's idol on myself!

(The Koopas groan.)

The Dark Alfred: What about the second idol?

Morieris: I'll take it from here!

 

Cut to Morieris's elimination in episode seven.

Morieris walks out of the arena and finds a kiosk, and on the kiosk, there's several chests, each with the names of a survivor who's still in the game. Morieris reads a note aloud.

Morieris: In observance of the secret superstar giveaway twist, please select one player to give your invincibility star.

Morieris looks at Goldenhour36's box, then turns to Fancyarcher's box and puts it in that one instead!

 

Goldenhour36: But I thought we had some sparks flying! Why didn't you give your star to me?

Morieris: I'm a pretty big fan of underdog stories and thought Fancyarcher would be a good underdog!

Fancyarcher: I stole your girl, Goldenhour36. 

Goldenhour36: I'm so angry right now... 😡

SLAM!: And who are you playing the second idol on?

Fancyarcher: I'm playing the second idol on Asyulus.

They high-five. DAJK frowns in defeat.

 

SLAM!: Any votes cast against Asyulus and/or Fancyarcher will not count.

 

 

SLAM!: Okay, here's who won immunity—

Spoiler

FANCYARCHER with 92.88%!

 

Fancyarcher and Asyulus high-five again.

 

 

SLAM!: First vote—

SLAM!: Third vote—

SLAM!: Thirteenth player voted out of Survivor Mushroom Kingdom...

Spoiler

 

DAJK

 

SLAM!: Please bring me your torch.

DAJK brings his torch to SLAM!.

SLAM!: DAJK? The tribe has spoken.

SLAM! snuffs the torch.

Rorschach: Dude, wait.

DAJK turns to listen.

Rorschach: I'll beat Fancyarcher. I won't let you down!

They fist-bump, and DAJK goes...

 

CONFESSIONAL - DAJK: They got me good... None of us thought Fancyarcher had any more idols. I'll be rooting for Rorschach to win this thing!
