IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Quest for Fire (Chapera and
Mogo Mogo win?)
Our
first episode to try and emulate True Dork Times,
and what do we get stuck with? 18 castaways! How
is this one going to work? I feel like Jessica Simpson
trying to figure out Candyland.
From the excellent TV Guide pic found by Snewser
we see that the Immunity Idol actually has two parts.
And both of those parts can be seen in some form
at the Mogo Mogo (Green) and Chapera (Red) tribes.
Rich
has the bottom of the Immunity Idol
It's
not clear how exactly this dual immunity works,
but we know the first challenge is similar to the
quest for fire challenges we've seen in previous
seasons. And perhaps the first two teams across
win immunity. Or maybe the first one gets a reward,
too? Eh, who cares about details?
A few pics for now (Click to enlarge)
Richard gets naked again, ugh!
Check out the mysterious missing upper torso next
to Rudy.
What's hiding underneath at Chapera? Could it be
Mr. top Idol? Someone call Simon Cowell!
Saboga's Jenna L, Jerri and Ethan. All-Stars
is a lame excuse to reuse old challenges!
Chapera celebrating...after IC? Amber, Rob, &
Tom all look happy. (Click for moving pic)
BOOT: Tina.
At
least we have a good idea that Saboga
loses the challenge.
Tina, where are you?
Tina
is seen in the least amount of pre-show vidcaps.
She is also missing from the walk to the Episode
2 challenge (above). Jerri's hat is visible.
Rupert, Ethan, Rudy and Jenna L. are present.
Also going against Tina, is the Patagonia spoiler
by Colleenlover at SurvivorSucks, pegging her
as an early boot. Aussie contestant Jeff Varner,
who had a hot boot streak in Marquesas, also gives
Tina the kiss of death. (Or maybe he's just bitter
about not being picked for ASS?)
Then again, ChillOne's
sources have a bull's eye on Ethan as the
first boot. Oh wait, his source mysteriously contacts
him and says that Ethan goes second,
and Tina
is the first boot. This flip-flopping is giving
me chills. Just remember, ChillOne's superior
information got the Ryan boot wrong in Survivor
Amazon.
But
hold on, ChillOne might have gotten things right
the second time. Snewser -- whose proven track
record cannot be denied -- also filp-flopped.
His original report said that the first boot is
male. But he recently crossed
that out.
Tina
makes sense. She is a
past winner, and both Snewser and ChillOne peg
past winners as screwed in this version. She is
the weakest woman on her team.
Bye Tina.
