Survivor season 35: Episode 3 preview shows smoke before fire

The preview for Survivor season 35, episode 3, ‘My Kisses are Private’ shows potential blowups start to take shape in each tribe.

Only 16 castaways remain on Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers. In the second episode of the 35th season, the Hustlers were sent to Tribal Council. And after failing in the challenge and generally being an outcast, Simone was the second person voted out.

Now that we’ve eliminated a pair of players, things are going to start to take more shape. The first vote-outs from tribes are easy to call, but it’s when the numbers are odd that things can start to get personal, underhanded and generally nasty.

Subsequently, it shouldn’t come as a shock that it seems like episode 3, “My Kisses are Private” is bringing that to the table. When you look at the preview, it appears like there is some sort of big issue that’s brewing within each tribe that could cause a big blowup at some point:

First off, we already know that no one on the Heroes tribe trusts Alan Ball. After he made JP strip-search over the idol, it’s clear that he’s on thin ice. So if he’s now not being able to pull his wait or survive at camp, that’s just another reason for him to be voted out.

As we saw in last episode, Lauren isn’t a fan of Patrick. But as the Big Red Surviving Machine continues his loud and man-boyish ways, it’s clear that he’s only grating further on her — and perhaps more on the rest of the tribe now as well.

Yet another thing that we saw in the latest installment was the budding romance between Cole and Jessica on the Healers tribe. From what we see in the preview, it would seem that it is in full bloom when this episode rolls around.

When you put that all together, it’s not all that revealing of what’s to come in Survivor season 35, episode 3, but it does set the stage for drama no matter which tribe has to vote someone out.
