Yes, I agree. I only remember the fake idols being thrown into the fire. The hidden IIs can only be played up til a certain point ... seems to me like F5 is the cut-off. It's been so long since one was played successfully, that we all seem to have forgotten........but I'm thinking that if they are played, they get replanted...but I'm just not sure.

Last night I saw somewhere that Erik said in one of his interviews that he left the TC with the hidden II in his pocket and that "Production" took it from him. I need to go see if I can find that interview.

Okay ... I think I found it. It's not in any written interview that I found, but in the EW.com video interview with Ross Dalton, the question is asked......

If you leave the show with an idol in your pocket, you get to keep it, right?

And Erik said, "Heck No, they have somebody there waiting, and they take it from you." He was laughing when he said it, and threw in something jokingly about "some Samoans" ....... but I feel pretty sure that he meant it was taken from him.

Spoiler Missyae is on the move again. We are told a little bit more, but not all of Episode 9. Mainly we are told that Jaison is not the boot. Not told who wins immunity or who gets the boot!
*****************************

Hi Gang!
Yes, this is the eppy #9 I have been talking about for weeks. This is their main event of the season, all the cards in, all the eggs in this basket this week. They want this big 'strategy' to remain unspoiled and a surprise Thursday night, at least that's what the word is on the street!
I did post on the visitors board that Jaison is safe. I say visitors field becaus! I say visitors field because this is my home field!! I dont know if TDT read that and updated his board to say scratch Jaison or not. Maybe he has some info this week, I dont know. But it will not be Jaison.
For the Foa members to get as far as they do, right now they must have their solid 4 votes for each Tribal so dont think there is any backstabbing going on with them yet, its too early, they need each other and they need another person or 2.
I am told that when we get down somewhere around the final 10 mark there was at least 1 player wondering about what happens in case of a tie at Tribal Council. So the thoughts of the ole purple rock come into play. Now does it end up happening, not sure on that yet but the lines are drawn and will anyone cross them? The 2 players who would be the target of the votes would become safe and everyone else would draw for the purple rock, would anyone want to go home that way? I sure wouldnt but you never know.
Laura definitely would have gone home last week if she would not have won immunity. They had the votes, she was a goner.
Erik's smart move would have been to go to The Evil One and make a deal. 2 idols - 2 players. He wanted it flushed out and look what happened to him. I bet he lays awake at night thinking about an alliance with The Strategic One now.
The rat? Just as it says, unlikely person so scratch Shambo off your list. I am told someone was even hunting snakes out there in hopes of slaying one for some food!
I am told the 'tastes like chicken' line could go to anyone as most everyone said it. I am sure CBS will zone in on 1 person though.
I am told there is some confusion being tossed out there by CBS this week on some vidcaps, be careful.
Chill out EYE, nobody is trying to ruin your eppy this week!!
Something I forgot to say about last week's episode is that Natalie's big strategic move by talking to Laura was initiated by someone else. So the editing to show her being strategic, a tad bit misleading. I really like that Arkansas gal though!
Something that I might have considered if I had been Mick, Nat, and Russell would have been getting John, Sham, and Dave on board and gaining their trust with the vote off of Jaison. Sorta like a baseball trade 3-1. However, very risky if you are potentially putting yourself down to 3 people if it backfires.
I think the 2 main storylines are still going to be how the underdogs come back to dominate and how the Foa players were tight and like Nat says with Galu, 'cracks everywhere!'
There was a reason Nat, Jaison, and Mick were sitting there together as Russell was off in the distance. It was to allow Galu members to approach them and see who was trying to do what, with Russell. They would not have talked in front of him.
It allowed some of the Galu members to show their hands. Whether it was that they just wanted to flush out his idol or to blab about him coming to them about making deals, they did show their hand.
That was pretty smart to give some of the Galu players that opening, they bit, hook - line - and sinker.
As far as Nat going to the Galu girls, that strategy came from the same person who had the strategy of Russell to be away from the other 3 Foa members. Who is the only Foa member out there so far who has actually been trying to play The Game?
I told people long ago, Nat was in The Evil One's back pocket. To Nat's credit, she has done what she needed to do to stay there instead of people like Liz, Betsy, and Ashley, she has been 100% loyal. But so far, her moves that CBS have pimped out, were not her moves at all.
What will get interesting is, will Natalie really try to go for the all girl alliance or not? Will she really attempt that move in The Game or will she remain 100% loyal to the end?
Just my speculation, she could win this game either way.
I am pulling for her. She has come a long way from asking the producers if they got hotel breaks.

I can't remember if the Galu people knew that Erik had HII? If not, perhaps Russell claims to have found the one at Galu's camp also? Or maybe that he found where Erik had hidden it? Since it's not clear whether Galu knew that Erik left the game w/the HII, maybe they fall for the lie that Russell has that one too.

Oh .... I can answer that one. I meant to bring that over from one of Erik's interviews. He said, when asked that question, if he had told anybody he had the HII, and he said, "No, I didn't tell anybody." He also says that it was in his pocket and he would have used it if he had thought there was even an inkling that it was him going home.

So, Erik never showed anybody on Galu.......and we know that the 4 Foa Foa people didn't know because they were quoted as being shocked after viewing, at home, the episode where Erik found the HII.

So, Russell could very well act like he found one and get believed, or he could find one that has been replanted, or her could win immunity....we just don't know. No spoiler has even ventured forth to tell us.......so it is all speculation.

But didn't Shambo give Eric the clues? Wouldn't she have known that he found it?

She gave him the clues but she couldn't find it. I don't think Erik told Shambo that he found it.

Erik definitely did not tell Shambo that he had found it. That's why it aggravated me so much when, during one of his recent interviews, her said that the only other person he would have been willing to give it to would have been Shambo because of her loyalty. I'm sorry....but she gave him the clues and he promised if he found it he would give it to her, or at least share it....and then he found it and hid it. I don't care 2 snaps for the fellow, I'm afraid.

Quick Wednesday morning update before I head off for my Women's Club Monthly meeting and luncheon.

***********************
Survivor Fever - says:
Jaison, John and Laura are vulnerable
All others are marked as "safe"
***********************
TDT - says:
Boot this week is either Laura or Monica
***********************
Survivor Blows - says"
Only one vote is in so far and it says Monica ... way to early for the voting results

The SOTS (State of the Spoiling) writer for this episode has had to back out, and has asked for a volunteer to step forward and do it in her place. So far, no volunteer.

Nothing new this morning. It's all very tight-lipped this week:

So far no SOTS (State of the Spoiling) up at Survivor Blows.

In their voting thread, there are 8 members who have voted who they think gets the boot this week and it's Laura 4, Monica 3, and John 1.

CBS is hyping this show to be the turning point and one of the most memorable tribal councils in Survivor History. Spoiler Missyae has pretty much not told us who gets the boot and has hinted that she has been told to keep it hush-hush by her source. That's probably right ... but then maybe she doesn't know and is hedging, but I think she knows and is just not at liberty to tell. (Whatever!)

If you want to know what I think from the pictures, I think that the challenge we have seen must be a combo since we haven't seen any other challenges. The picture of Kelly with the Ginger flower in her hair makes me think that is on a reward trip, and I think if the race was between ER and Laura, Laura must have won it and Kelly got to go on the trip (hence, the picture). I think ER is the target and at the tribal council pulls a great stunt (hence the CBS hype) of either having found a replanted HII, or bluffing that he has found one, or has gained Shambo and John for the votes to oust Monica (which would still be zinging Laura). That's what I think is going to happen. I believe Monica gets the boot.

There are other posters that are sure somebody else wins the immunity and that ER gains the votes to oust Laura.

And then there are other posters that think all the tables turn and that John gets the boot.

Should be a very, good show tonight.......

But, didn't some of the original spoilers have Laura going a long way before being voted out?

But would Monica being voted out REALLY be the BEST TC EVER?!?!?!

I don't think so. I say it has to be someone else.

Yep .... here at the last minutes, it appears Laura is the favored one to get the boot per TDT, and she is one of the three that Survivor Fever says are vulnerable, and the SOTS at Survivor Blows is up and says Laura, and the voters in a separate thread over there are 90% daying Laura.
And this is all without a spoiler pointing the finger and saying who it is that is going.

So.......if Laura doesn't go, a lotta, lotta, lotta posters will be very surprised!

IF the II goes back into play, every time it is played, maybe Russell keeps finding it over and over and over again?

(LOL) Jeff announced at the end of the TC that the HII would go back into play, and the previews showed everybody looking for it, and scrambling. This should be a hoot. It's like playing "Button, Button, Who's Got the Button".

I think it is funny (strange) that if the HII is played then it will be put back into circulation... but if the HII is not played before the holder is voted off the idol becomes dead. Intuitively I would have thought it would be reversed.

Ginger, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all of your spoiling! I appreciate it so much!

I am more excited about this season since I have been with Richard Hatch. How wonderful is it that they have found a guy that is going to play the game, and play it six ways to Sunday! I don't have to like him to be totally entertained by his ability to play the game. Clearly, he has watched all of the Survivors, probably more than once. Honestly, this season is the first one that has generated my interest the way the Richard Hatch season did!

GO RUSSELL!!! Can't wait for next week! How does he out-fox them next?

What I love is that Russell seems to say what I am thinking.... "look at the piece" with a totally disgusted look on his face. He wasn't my favorite in the beginning, but I'm liking his game now.
