1st - the episode starts with Rob, as always cocky, trash talking Russell & Parvati. he said he couldn't understand why three people were so cocky going up against 5.. well i can't speak for Danielle, but Parvati & Russell, as i've always said, are THAT good... and this episode proved it!
Courtney saying in reference to Parvati "she'll flirt with anything that walks"... well it works, maybe you should try it Courtney.
Coach- CLEARLY has never "coached" basketball. His performance in the reward challenge was EMBARRASSING! He stated Jerri bought Russell's lies "hook line and sinker" (which she did) but when you buy that "pure line of gold" Jerri is giving to you, AFTER Russell gave it to her, you have to give credit where credit is due, It wasn't Jerri who pulled you in, it was Russell pulling Jerri in convincing her to pull you in! & telling Jerri he "hurt" her.. Dear Coach, this is Survivor, there's a million dollars on the line. Jerri doesn't have the nickname "the black widow" for nothing. nobody cares about your feelings when there's a million dollars on the line! Jerri said it best "he doesn't get the grand scheme of things, you can't be the good guy to everyone" I wouldn't mind if Coach won tho, he needs the money to go toward a nose job.
Russell - physically Russell isn't that great in the majority of the challenges, however strategically the man is a Survivor God! when he was trying to get to the ball in the reward challenge he's so short the water was up to his neck and he couldn't even move! & no one even wants to get rid of him because he's not that great at the challenges, they want to get rid of him because
Parvati - "well listen crazy pants!" i'm not even on the island with them and i'm mesmerized by this girl. No doubt in my mind she'll be in the final, maybe she can teach Courtney a few tips. It kills me to say that because in China Courtney was my favorite, and what i've seen of her, she still has her quick whit, she's just unfortunately edited out of this season.
Candice! -at the start of the season i said i didn't understand why she was even there and she's a waste of space. i will say i don't know what she did from Cook Islands that made her stand out enough to be offered a spot, however i am eating my words. She's one of the greatest cast members this season & i think she'll outlast all other heroes. now whether she single handedly won the immunity challenge or Courtney single handedly lost it, thats all a matter of opinion i guess, but physically she's greater than any of the women this cast & i still say she's one to watch. she's the dark horse of this season.
Sandra - Now Sandra is a wild card to me and i'll get more to her later on, but did anyone else catch when she said to Parvati "we might be eating chicken from the camp" - Sandra has made no secret her alliance is with whoever has the majority, it may be editing but she's yet to be seen making an effort to talk to anyone, odd that she talks to Parvati? maybe she's realizing its Survivor, and coat tail riding with the majority doesn't always put you in a good spot.. who knows. I loved the clip of her running & falling on the beach after the immunity challenge.
Rupert - pushing Russell after the reward challenge? a baby? i think so! & i'm sick of hearing him talk about his broken toe! It doesn't even effect his performance, its not until he sucks at something does he even mention it. He's so boring. I can't stand him.
Rob - I loved the conversation between him & Russell on the beach when Russell told him "you'd be amazed how great that approach works sometimes" I loved how Rob tells in his one on one the great ways to get people to do what he wants them to do... now i know this season was filmed prior to the him getting to watch Samoa, but i bet after he watched Russell in action, then heard himself utter those words, he felt like the biggest jack ass ever. Boston Rob, other than a tooth, has nothing on Russell. THEN turns around and has to be the one begging for his life in the game, I LOVED IT! Rob has spent this whole season talking about how he didn't have hidden immunity idols in his past seasons... i bet he's wishing he looked for them now.
Amanda - again i worry about her! the lights are on but no ones home! the smart thing to do is to get that clue, read it, and find that idol... but your stupid ass don't read it in front of the whole group!! Again, the girl has made it to the end twice, you couldn't prove it by me. Collectively she's earned 200,000$ from the show.. she needs to call up Todd, Parvati & Cirie and thank them every day!
Tribal Council:
i loved how Probst asked at tribal council "where's the gap" i was waiting for someone to say "in Russell's mouth"
Coach voting for Courtney proves why he'll never win this game. He doesn't have what it takes. This is Survivor, not Yahtzee. leave your morals at the front door Coach! I honestly don't know why Coach isn't a hero. i mean really. he's not a fan favorite, but he's not a villain. a douche, but not a villain.
I'm anxious to see how Sandra adapts now that she's so clearly in the minority. As i've pointed out in the past she's loud, obnoxious and unapologetic, so watching her struggle to adapt and fit in with this new majority that she was once so confident she wouldn't ever have to rely on or align with is going to be interesting! Coach said in the previews for next week he was praying for a merge... i think Sandra is the one more so praying for a merge... or atleast she should be.
Boston Rob giving his speech at Tribal, it was hilarious. i loved it. i loved every minute of it! I despise him & i'm so glad he's gone. The tears welling up in his eyes when he was talking to Jerri... him calling Coach a cry baby earlier in the season just kept playing over and over in my mind. Then he had the audacity to call Coach a "little man"
Dear Boston Rob, its Outwit Outplay Outlast. How you gonna get mad at someone for outwitting & outlasting you, after you make fun of him all season and then clearly say yourself that you're telling him what he wants to hear to get what you need from him. I loved it, i just wish Coach would have mannned up a little bit and relished in the victory a little more.
