Thanks to Survivor Fever, promo pictures and transcript: Promo Transcript Jeff Probst: Next time on Survivor... (African tribes dancing and singing)
Jeff: Meet the new Fang...
Randy (talking to Matty and demonstrating a challenge): Just set it forward and drop it.
Matty: Shhhhhhhhhhhh.
Randy: Right now, just drop it. Jeff: Same as the old Fang. Jeff (at challenge): Fang, one big happy tribe, obviously. Jeff: And at Kota, Kenny is the man of the house.
Kenny (confessional): Right now, I know for a fact that I can win this game.

Bringing this over from the previous Episode, in the last promos Jeff said: And a big theme begins to emerge and this is one that's going to carry out for the rest of the season and it's good versus bad. There are some people that decide, "you know what, we are good people and one of us should win, they're bad people and they shouldn't." That is a battle that will play out now, the bad, mean, ugly people versus the pretty, nice, good people. Who do you want to win? I had thought that this statement referred to Bob, Corinne, Charlie and Randy considering themselves as the good people, but I'm seeing over at the other places that posters think Crystal, Ken, and Susie think they are the good people. I was curious which way you guys think it is??? If they merge at 9 players, you have the old onion alliance of Corinne, Charlie, Bob and Randy intact and you have Crystal, Ken and Susie. Matty may think he has a better chance with the Ken group. So, all of a sudden, Sugar with her idol is the swing vote again. Sugar knows that Ken mislead her, but then if Matty swings, she seems to be close to Matty now. I have a feeling we are going to begin watching the peeling of an onion.

I don't know about "the good people" but my favs are Matty, Sugar, Bob and Ken. I like the others except for Randy and Corinne.

I agree that Sugar is going to play a huge part.... She would probably be on the 'good' side. I see Kenny on the 'good' side as well. The old Kota (+ Randy) was pretty arrogant last night which does not bode well. Randy might be cast on the 'bad' side.

Matty, Sugar and Ken are my favs in that order. Corrine, Randy and Crystal bug me and I'm ambivalent about Charlie and Bob.

http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2008/11/jeff-probst-blo.html This is the link to Jeff's Blog this week. It is already posted in the section that is not labeled spoiling, but I wanted to link it in here cause there are a couple of things in it that I wanted to point out. Jeff says that it is fun having Sugar and Corinne on the same tribe, "sweet and sour". He also says, "Wait til the next episode when Corinne sees that Marcus got voted out. She is gonna blow." So, I'm thinking he just pin-pointed who it is that he thinks is good vs evil. Corinne's group is, in his estimation, the evil group......so watch out Randy, Charlie, Corinne and Bob. I thought they were the better players, but if you have to put good vs. evil, that puts a different spin on it, I guess.

I thought I was doomed to have Susie in my 2nd pool but I may just be happily surprised! LOL I have Sugar in the big pool and I want her to win!!!

I want Sugar to win. And I wouldn't be surprised if Crystal, Ken, and Susie think they are the "good" team. It's always my least favorite folks who pull the good/bad card and label THEMSELVES as good!

I've got a sneaky hunch that Matty might become the Marcus to the C/K/S/S group and boom, boom, boom ... there go Charlie, Corinne, Bob and Randy without Sugar having to ever play her idol. That would get her up to the Final Five, and I think she could play it then to get into the Final Four, but not later (if I'm remembering right). So, Sugar might have a really good chance at getting into the Final 3 and after that it's up to the jury. Wouldn't that be a hoot...she spent most of her time on Exile Island!!! I've also read in a couple of places that she has married a director since the show, (and I haven't researched it enough to see if he is from Survivor and not related to the show). I'll see if I can find that out for us.

Found this by doing a Google search: Contestant Jessica "Sugar" Kiper had no mention of marriage at the time of the show according to her CBS biography. On August 27, 2008, she announced she had married movie director John Lands after knowing him for only 11 days according to her MySpace blog.

I want Sugar to win too. Wow! 11 days.... must have been magic! or something ... If not her, then I'd like Kenny to make it there. Ginger, why do you think Matty becomes 'Marcus'? I thought that Kenny has shown more conniving that Matty.

Kooklie .... I was referring to Marcus and Matty being matched up as far as challenges go. Even Marcus pointed out awhile back in a confessional that Matty (on the other tribe) was a good competitor and a threat. I was also referring to the onion alliance needing to replace Marcus for the numbers, and Matty would be a good one for them to solicit. Kenny is definitely not a good one for them to solicit, as he is pretty much the powerhouse behind the other alliance, even though Crystal thinks she is. *********************************** New press release.

Corinne wouldn't have much chance to go after Susie, unless they merge (shich easily could happen) Hot-headed could mean Corinne or Randy..

Given the fact that the producers have held their cards close to their vests this season, this could go any direction. I can see Randy, Corinne or Crystal as hot-headed. . .The fact that Randy has the negative preview this week makes me wonder if they're leading us in the wrong direction (which they would *never* do. Too bad they can't do a double elimination. Get rid of Crystal and Susie together.

Still not enough pics out to see if the RC is tribal or individual (appeared to be tribal) ... but speculators seem to think the TC will be individual. At that point I can see either Corinne or Randy blowing at Susie, but I'm not sure why they would blow at Sugar???

Ken, Randy and Crystal think their the brains. Randy and Ken mostly. Dirty laundry? Sugar and Ken. Corinne and Susie.

You might be on to something Csnog....if Sugar is upset with Kenny now, knowing that he lied to her about Ace (per Matty), she might stick with the Charlie/Corinne/Randy/Bob alliance to pay Kenny back, regardless of which way Matty swings. I hadn't thought of that...

The 2nd version of the Kota tribe didn't go to tribal council very often. So, maybe they would have more dirty laundry to air. I would see the Corrine/Charlie/Randy/Bob blowing up at Suzie moreso than anyone else. More Randy, Charlie & Corrine to be specific. I now understand what you are now saying about Matty, but I don't think he would be swayed at all. But, I'm not sure how smart he is in gameplay. In the last episode, he acted like he was tight with Randy when the tribes went back to their camps, but then out of earshot was suspicious of him with Sugar. Suffice it to say, I have no clue.

This is probably Corinne and Charlie when they see that Marcus is missing from the Kota tribe.
(Notice Corinne's hands clasped, almost in prayer.
