It was a simple challenge yet it got the castaways and love ones to dig deep and get not only their hands but their entire body dirty. I could imagine someone in the background singing/shouting "Anak ng Putik Naman Kayo!".

Great job to the Montero brothers. No one even came close in tipping the balance scale to their load or favor. KC again showed another cool little trick by finding a loophole in the challenge. Only KC could have come up with the idea of using his head and back to lift the heavier "mud bricks". It seems KC still a few more things in his bag of tricks.

Allowing Gino and Betong to join in the reward further cements KC's alliance with the two. By the way, the reward looks like to be in a ranch of sorts with ziplines and hearty picnic.

Nice justification in deciding that Arnold be the castaway not to have his team mate Cris stay in camp. It was a no-brainer actually considering everyone else had family members with them. Besides I don't think Cris is a suitable replacement for John to revive the bromance angle.

During the solo interview, KC was very candid about his falling out with Arnie because of the previous tribal council. But their rivalry isn't yet as intense as the Kiko-Marlon of Season 1.

The castaways and love ones got to wash off the mud on their bodies in a near by river. I bet KC would look around if someone would have sing "Anak ng Pasig Naman Kayo!".

In the next episode, the Montero brothers along with the Gino, Betong and their love ones get to continue their bonding in a ranch filled with activities. The jury house will be "raided" by the jury members' love ones. I don't think anyone in the jury has any secrets to hide from their love ones. Or do they? And where were the jury members if they were not sequestered in the jury house? Visiting El Nido or the underground river? Will sparks fly because of the Dear Chuckie letrers? What secrets will Rochelle find inside Arthur's closet I mean luggage? Abangan.
