-- Feeling isolated, Kathy works
to reconcile with a tribemate. (Sounds like
Rob; And this realtor has about as much chance of succeeding as
finding a young couple to purchase Sadaam's palace.)
-- The castaways get messages from home bringing most of the
tribe to tears. After several castaways are brought to tears, one Survivor
surprises all. (Looks like someone (Shii?) offers their reward to
everyone like S6's Matthew. It will be boring unless someone is like
S1 Greg's sister -- I still have nightmares of watching that episode.)
-- Paranoia plagues Jenna, who witnesses a strategy session amongst
tribemates.
(CBS needs some sort of misdirection for the predictable boot of
Kathy.)
-- Scrambling, panic and pleading intensify as Tribal Council
approaches. (Edited drama to look like a Pagonging won't occur.)
REWARD CHALLENGE: Super obstacle course! (Rob wins?)
The CBS promo states: "One
reward. One immunity." We're not sure if this means
that it's the same challenge or not. It could mean
that there is just one immunity necklace.
But regardless, we do know of the reward -- letters
and videos from home.
We're going to split the video
caps in two phases -- 1) the challenge -- 2) the
reward.
This obstacle course is
team-based (as has happened in numerous past
Survivors).
The teams are divided into two groups of four:
Group 1: Kathy, Tom, Jenna, and Rupert
Group 2: Alicia, Shii Ann, Amber and Rob.
It appears that throughout the challenge, members
are eliminated, or fall behind.
-- For Group 1: Tom appears to be eliminated. Jenna
is nowhere to be found after the starting point. So
Kathy and Rupert at the end?
-- For Group 2: Amber is behind at some point,
then Alicia. Shii and Rob seem to be competing at
the front in the end.
(Left): The teams begin.
(Right): Obstacles include a balance beam (Rupert at
right, in front of Kathy. Alicia is next to her.
Amber is there, too, in dark pants ahead of
Alicia).
Amber climbs the wall and is helped by Alicia and
Rob.
(Left): Kathy and Tom, who takes a big fall. An
unknown Group 2 member is at the far right.
(Right): Shii (at the left) with Amber and Rob.
Alicia is behind Amber
(Left): Rob and Shii Ann underneath beams.
(NEAR END OF CHALLENGE?). Alicia appears to be far
behind Shii Ann. Thanks to Ives on EZBoard for the
help!
(Right): The finish line with four poles/puzzles?
So who wins?
-- It looks like in one picture, we have Shii, Amber
and Rob facing off next to each other.
-- Then in another picture it's Rob and Shii Ann?
Rob is slightly ahead, but in the pics below, CBS is
STRONGLY suggesting that Shii Ann makes some sort of
gesture to the tribe with the reward.
Could Shii Ann really win a physical challenge?
Well, she did beat Alicia. Who knows?
OK, maybe not. We'll go with a RobFather
victory here, because it's just more friggin
possible.
But we're not ruling out a team victory.
A
crying shame. (Viewers lose)
SNORE! We get the old "tapes from home" reward.
Expect lots of crying.
The only thing that will make this a good reward is
if Probst tells Jenna, "Oops, guess we don't have a
tape for you."
Too bad Greg's sister isn't around to scare the
American public. We also particularly liked Brian
Heidik's wife (one of the few great moments of
Thailand). Boy were those contestants smart to give
$1 million to a rich former porn star with a hot
wife.
Anyway, I suppose we should try to figure out what
happens. (This is a spoiler site right?)
(Left): Survivors meet (pre-challenge?). Notice Rob
with no shirt. Alicia with blue shirt. Probably a
preview session. Everyone gets a few seconds of
tape.
(Right): Probst says, "Look! It's Brian Heidik's porno!"
(Left): Rob and Survivors making toast to Shii Ann.
Did she do something nice like share her
reward? Notice Alicia and Kathy and Rupert
not looking in that direction. Also note Rob has
a black shirt on. And Alicia has no blue
shirt on. (Post-challenge?)
(Right): Shii appears to have a letter in her hand.
"That was really big," she says. Wait, is she
talking about a gesture from someone else?
The tribes may get a preview of the tapes, compete,
and then watch later.
CHALLENGE 2: Is there one? (probably not)
As of now, it appears there is
only one challenge. However, if there is second
challenge, we'll say Shii wins the reward,
and Rob wins immunity.
BOOT: Kathy.
This
one's a gimme!
Kathy caused a tremendous amount of trouble last
week. As a smart player she will try to stir up even
more trouble this week in an effort not to get
booted. But as a loose, dangerous cannon, no will
align with her, and she will booted quite easily.
She's the only one who voted against the Amber-Rob
alliance. She's a former Mogo Mogo, and the other
one left, Shii Ann, tried to stay out of trouble.
But Shii won't be a Zoe-like boot this week.
Numerous sources hint at a Kathy boot, and Lex's
reaction in post-boot interviews is bleak,
discussing the "sheep" that are Boston Rob's
followers. That likely means his friend Kathy is
next to go.
Shii Ann is ignoring her.
Super Mario (errrr Rob) is laughing at her.
PREDICTION: Real
estate isn't the biggest money-maker in Survivor.
MARKOPOLO'S APPRENTICE
PREDICTION: OK, I
don't try and spoil the show, and I haven't seen all
the episodes, but Kwame will win because he's got
Troy, and Troy rules all! Go Idaho! OK, I heard that
one contestant already blew it and said that he won.
What crap!
1) Rob and his biatches.
2) MediaWhores.
3) Chapera and the two Pagong members left.
4) RobFather's mafia.
5) WhyAren'tYouWatchingApprentice?
6) Ghandia'sSmokingClub
7) SpongeRob's Squarepants.

Last week's

INCREDIBLE prizes)***
FIRST PLACE "Mud wrestling with Heidi and Jenna (instead
of mud, use chocolate and peanut butter)." -- CJ

RUNNER-UP "I think the survivor who should make a cameo
in a challenge is Brandon, and of course, it
should be a challenge involving flaming arrows."
