Sambutwo smilingly approaching the challenge, until Lindsey can clearly see the new Boranew tribe and starts anxiously whispering, "Silas is gone! Silas is gone! Oh my God!" The tribes line up facing each other and Peachy says, "Sambutwo, get your first look at the latest member of Boranew to be voted out." ["Which is unfortunate syntax, since they can't look at Silas when he...you know, isn't there anymore." -- Wing Chun] While the camera pans over their expressions, we see that Kimj is giving a big thumbs-up to her former tribe members, who are grinning. Playskool pretends they're not surprised to see that Silas is gone.
Peachy stops gloating and starts talking about the challenge. He says that the tribes will answer a series of questions about Africa while sitting on bleachers. Yes, bleachers. Now I know this is filmed on the set of Bug Juice; Kelly must feel right at home here. With each correct answer, the tribes will move down one row on the bleachers. Whichever tribe reaches the finish line first wins the prize. Peachy then busts out a tray with a single can of Mountain Don't and a cup; the competitors look amazed and shocked. Tom makes pig noises and can barely contain himself when Peachy says, "It's cold, too." Because warm Mountain Don't would be some kind of prize. Peachy lets each competitor have a taste, and they all act as if the gag reflexes don't kick in just thinking about it. Peachy then ruins the whole advertisement deal with Pepsi-Cola by saying the Mountain Don't is only "just a little bit of a tease" because the real reward is a "nice little buffet" of pasta, sandwiches, and cookies. Peachy realizes that his foot is in his mouth and adds, "Not to mention all the Mountain [Don't] you can drink." This takes me to a very bad place.
