Survivor: China Episode 11 Promo VoiceOver Jeff Probst: Next time on Survivor, the tribe is overwhelmed with emotion. Amanda turns on her closest ally.
Amanda <at challenge>: *sobs*
Ginger: This is also Courtney sobbing
Ginger: Reward Challenge looks like the emotional family reunion thing, and this sure looks like a Denise relative to me.
Amanda <talking to Erik>: Todd is playing his own game. I don't like it. Jeff: And everyone's fate is in the hands of Denise.
Ginger: The Three Amigos (with James gone)
Ginger: The last of Zhan Hu
Denise <confessional>: I'm definitely the swing vote tonight. For me, personally, I mean this is do or die. Ginger: Since there are 6 and not 5 players, I think Denise must mean a swing vote between a boot or a tie. I can't see her forcing a tie, cause the following week her name would be mud.

12/06/07 "Going for the Oscar" Another castaway is voted out of the game. Jeff Probst is the host. While most castaways shed tears of joy after receiving news from home, one sheds tears of sorrow…but some think the waterworks are no more than a mere performance. After fulfilling a tribemate's dream, one castaway is infuriated when her kind gesture is not returned. And why are the castaways licking each other's hands?

Licking each other's hands?! Eurgh. I think picture three is Denise herself, not a Denise relative. Denise should just cut her longer hair off, the short hair (when she has her long hair tied back) suits her. Thanks for the info

I think it is a picture of Denise herself and not a relative as well.

In the other picture, she is wearing the black v-neck shirt. So, I think it's her as well.

After fulfilling a tribemate's dream, one castaway is infuriated when her kind gesture is not returned. Sounds like Denise did not return Peih Gee's kind gesture from last episode's reward? Maybe she wins reward this week and get's to pick someone else to benefit and goes with her original alliance instead of Peih Gee?

Either that, or she doesn't guarantee Peih-Gee that she will not vote for either her or Erik at TC!!! Well......after looking at that picture again, I have to agree with you guys. It is Denise!!! No wonder I thought somebody looked like family (LOL).

Jeff Probst Episode 11 Preview Complicated love games affect tribal relations. Jeff Probst reports Showbiz.com Jeff: Well, things are definitely different around camp now. When you lose a workhorse it makes things a lot more difficult and now we have our loved one reward. I love the loved ones because so many things happen. On one hand you get to see the smiles from Survivors because they haven't had love in so long. And then typically, there's some people that are denied love as part of the challenge and that brings up a lot of feelings because this is your blood ten feet away and you can't get to them or you can't have them stay. And it brings up, much like last episode, some bad feelings on the part of the people who didn't win, don't get to participate. And if you don't think those things come to play down the stretch, you're wrong. They do and the game's getting very complicated.

The Reward Challenge for Episode 11 is suppose to be ..... "Marco Polo", touted to be similar to the Immunity Challenge that was done on Vanuatu. I found a YouTube.com playback of that challenge and in it the Survivors were on platforms calling out to their loved ones that were blindfolded, trying to guide them to 3 different poles where bags of puzzle pieces were hanging. Once the loved ones have gone and come back 3 times with the 3 bags, the blindfold is removed and they work together to solve the puzzle to win Immunity.
I believe this cap is from the Marco Polo Reward Challenge for Episode 11 of Survivor: China. But, this time it looks like the Survivors are the ones that are blindfolded, cause I see Peih-Gee in the front and Amanda in the back, trying to work their way through a maze of some sort.
Amanda blows a kiss to her loved one, which probably means she lost the challenge and doesn't get to spend time together. However, it could be before the challenge even starts as the loved ones are arriving........so I don't think it tells us much. In the CBS Misdirection, one of the clues says: After fulfilling a tribemate's dream, one castaway is infuriated when her kind gesture is not returned. This sure sounds like something Peih-Gee would feel if she were to be slighted by Denise, since PG helped Denise realize one of her dreams by selecting her for the visit to the temple last week. Could that mean that Denise wins the RC and doesn't pick PG to get some time with her loved one???

Survivor: China Episode 11 Promo VoiceOver VO: Three episodes to go. Six castaways remain. Who will become the dominant player?
Todd during IC with the word "DOMINANT"
Erik durin IC with the word "DOMINANT" Denise: I just don't know what to do. (looks up at sky) Can you help me?
Ginger: Obviously this is where Denise doesn't know where to vote with FL against PG & Erik, or to vote with PG & Erik against FL trio. Rather than force a tie and put her neck in the noose, I say she will vote with FL.

Pictures from Immunity Challenge:
This is the starting point after working through the boxes up on the colored-coordinated stands. L to R: Amanda, PG, Denise, Todd, Courtney, Erik Erik seems to be just a bit ahead on far right. It appears from the pictures following that they are each hooked to a rope at the waist.
To help you see the picture better --- I split in in two.
Erik looking down at something he is working on
Erik's hand working on the object
Erik reaches a bar
Erik flips over the bar to keep in line with the rope attached to his waist?
Coming down the hill, Todd appears to be way out front......do not see Erik anywhere.
Amanda appears to be wet, so I'm guessing this picture is near the beginning flipping over the bars in the water.
Peih-Gee in the water, pretty wet, working around a bar
Todd appears to be ahead in this shot too, but with the water, I think this pic is near the beginning......unless there is more water after the hill shots. Since the spoilers all say that Erik goes home this week, I'm guessing Todd wins from looking at these pictures. However; I thought they were going to boot PG before Erik, so either (1) she winds up winning immunity and these pics are misleading (heaven-forbid) or (2) they decide Erik is the bigger challenge risk and switch tactics as to which Zhan Hu goes first.

Hey .... don't let Pamy know this is over here. She's been messing with me on the Animal Farm!!! *************** Tribal Council Watch as the tribe blindsides James at Tribal Council. What did they have to say as they cast their votes? Amanda (James): I think you're an amazing person, you played a wonderful game, but I'm sorry, I have to go with the majority. You know our group. Peih-Gee (Todd): Just a little insurance, I guess. Denise (James): James, I really like you a lot, you're one of my best friends here. I wish you good luck. I'm sorry this has to be this way. James ("p.g."): You've lost the will. (?) Courtney (James): Let us hope this does not result in a screaming match back at camp. Erik (James): Sorry man, I have to go with the numbers. I hope it works out for you. Todd (James): If this works, wow. If not, I'm scared for my life.

Ginger: In the pictures you posted for the immunity challenge, there is a body of water just below the steps in the first picture. Then following the body of water is the berm and steep hill that they go down. The last three pictures may be out of sequence. Also, if Erik was ahead of everyone, and cannot be seen in the pictures of Todd, he may still be ahead of Todd.

I'm surprised PG didn't get Erik to vote for Todd. Had James played the II, it could have resulted in a tie between PG and Todd.

Lexie........if I were Erik, and trying to ingratiate myself with the big alliance, I wouldn't make waves by voting for Todd. Erik knows Jeff would reveal that TWO people voted for Todd, and that would keep him on Todd's radar. As long as Todd is running the show, and going after his OWN tribe mates, then Erik needs to remain under the radar. If there are two votes for Todd, and PG wins the next immunity, Erik's game is over. I can see why he went with the majority here. Honestly, if it's as obvious that Todd is the ruler over there as I think it is, I would have considered tipping off James at the last minute, THEN voting two for Todd, having James play an idol, and getting Todd out of there. I think that would have flipped the script. Tell James he's on the outs, bring him into your fold, oust Todd, and you've got a 3 on 3 battle again. Bring Denise in, and you've now got Amanda and Courtney gone. So easy from my armchair!!! So so easy!

(LOL) Pamy...Posters are wondering what in the world we are talking about....just playing and having fun!!! Eeyore, I thought that would have been beneficial to Erik also, but he and PG played it low to keep the others from voting for one of them and voting for one of their own (James) instead. I, too, would have liked to see a gameplay there by Erik and PG, but if they had told James, he would not have been able to keep it to himself. (IMHO) Gracie ... in that picture of Todd coming over the hill, you can see bit of Jeff to the right. Jeff usually keeps up with the leader. Also, in the background you can see Courtney coming along, and if you look a little further back, I think you can see just a smidget of Erik. Somehow, he must have got tangled up or something cause it looks to me like he is even behing Courtney. This is going to be my "SAD" week, cause I've been pulling for Erik ever since the beginning....OH WELL!!! It's only a game.

From Survivor Fever (and I don't see anything to dispute it over at TDT or Survivor Skills): RC Winner: Denise DanieuBleu post at Skills: Amanda: Sister Denise: Husband Todd: Sister I believe Amanda's sister is Katrina, Denise's husband is Robert, but Todd has three sisters. So, after much jubilee, they board a boat, and go cruising. The nice long ride gives them plenty of time to visit, eat, drink, and be merry with the ones they love. They finish off the trip with chocolate cake for dessert, and a couple of Reward winners put it on their fingers, and let some of the non-winners lick it off. ------------------------------------------------ Loved Ones Reward Trip Spec: Amanda: Katrina (sister) Denise: Robert (husband) Todd: Brandi (sister) *************************
Supposedly Denise wins and takes Todd and Amanda on the boat trip with them. ********************
Also, this picture is floating around. From the action shots we have seen, it looks like Todd wins the IC, and in this pic of him going to sleep, they thought he was wearing the immunity necklace. But, he wears a chain with coin all the time, and frankly I can't see anybody trying to sleep in that contraption, so I just don't think this is the IN. But, it does appear favorable that Todd wins IC. Regardless .... Erik is supposed to get the ticket home!!!

I agree, Ginger.. Cannot imagine trying to sleep in that thing (but then I can't imagine trying to sleep on bamboo, either..) So those not seeing relatives/friends are PG, Courtney, Erik.. and it seems they are all quite single.. PG has two cats, Courtney has one cat.. so at least Denise didn't deny someone time with a spouse.. Still, considering who is left, I'm thinking Denise wasn't thinking about jury votes...

lalalala Now, the best way, IMO, to handle these things is that if you win, you take those who came closest to you in the competition.. safer, anyway.

Oh Yea....and now we know for sure what is meant by this misdirection teaser put out by CBS: After fulfilling a tribemate's dream, one castaway is infuriated when her kind gesture is not returned. Notice the word is infuriated.
