It's a hell of a record.
That of the number of black balls drawn before a "Koh-Lanta" test.
The defending champion?
Stéphanie: five black balls to her credit.
More than in “Motus”, the former France 2 game hosted by Thierry Beccaro.
The poker dealer has been terribly unlucky once again.
"Bad luck to the end," said the 36-year-old candidate who believed in her favorite number 17, like the number of days spent in the adventure and the number of castaways still in the running.
"I'm going to freak out", continues the one who could not participate in the aquatic skill game or the construction of a vertical puzzle.
" It is abused.
“Or” There was a chance in 3,000” outbid his teammates.
However, everything had started well for Stephanie.
Barely eliminated by the yellows, the production offered him a second chance: to get back into the game. Among the reds, this time.
The reason ?
Jean-Philippe's package, whose feet had tripled in size.
“After two days of observation, you did some tests.
And the results do not allow you to start the adventure again, confirmed Denis Brogniart.
It was the doctor who made that decision.
Without the diagnosis being announced: a lack of vitamin B1, which led him to the hospital in Manila, capital of the Philippines where this edition is shot.
Olga and Yannick tell each other their four truths
Jean Philippe on his hospital bed.
Lying on his bed, the Norman adds: “It's wiser to stop there.
(…) I'm disappointed.
I thought I would go further.
I made it for my two lions
(his two young children)
, Celestin and Cyrius.
I hope they will be proud of me.
" They can.
Left with a bad image, this craftsman in the building had managed to make a place of choice, alongside the firefighter François.
It's over for him.
"The misfortune of some is the happiness of others", slipped Stéphanie, under the annoyed gaze of the reds.
An awkward expression in such circumstances.
Other striking remarks, those of Olga and Yannick, who told each other their four truths.
Or rather surrounded by other yellows.
A sequence that ended in a collective hug.
Or almost.
The basketball player did not digest the reproaches of the dancer, uttered during the council the day before.
She said she was afraid of the giant of "Koh-Lanta".
"It hit me like a stab in the face," he says aside.
I didn't see it coming.
Olga's apologies, I take them with a grain of salt.
“To meditate for the continuation.
Barbecue chicken and comfortable mattresses for the yolks
There were also those of Denis Brogniart addressed to hungry candidates: “Who is hungry after two weeks of adventure?
the host asked them, eyes frowning as everyone raised their hands.
At the key of the comfort test?
" Chicken !
announces their interlocutor.
Explosion of joy from the audience.
Anne-Sophie takes the floor: “We are obsessed with food.
We only talk about that all day long.
Brogniart continues: “Barbecue chicken marinated in soy sauce with vegetables and rice.
It's almost paradise, it's a dream that I offer you.
»
Exit the coconuts, at least for one evening.
Suffice to say that the other reward, that of sleeping on a comfortable mattress, went almost unnoticed.
That was for the winners, the yellow team, more motivated than ever.
The reds have won the cursed totem: a stay on the old camp, abandoned, of the old purples.
The double penalty for Stephanie, who has not been idle.
His goal: to integrate to make Maxime fall, in delicacy.
A strategy doomed to failure.
On the council, she collected all the votes of her new teammates.
As a result, Denis Brogniart extinguished his torch a second time.
It was expected.
Not enough to make him lose his smile or his repartee.
“Thank you for welcoming me for a short day within your team,” she concludes.
It didn't take long.
In any case, I hope you will gain comfort.
Because it seems to sting.
And that you will like it.
Really have a blast.
Touching, but unnecessary.
