yes that was a great scene, esp since we knew she had it!

LOL Clubhouse Sugar, I am sure many here are fond of you too! :-)

Ace is becoming too cocky for my liking so I am starting not to like him or the way he is wanting to use Sugar. <77>

And Ozzie hid the idol outside of the camp last year, which I thought was pretty smart.

I really like Sugar (both of them). I love the way she is just chilling out at Exile while the others are so miserable lol.

I absolutely can't stand Ace. The things he says are just beyond cocky. "At some point I might call upon you to use the idol." Ugh. And then on the previews, "I have complete supremacy." Who says that kind of thing, ever? Who does he think he is, a Survivor contestant or Lord Voldemort? I just hope he doesn't pull one over on Sugar, I would be so sad to see her go because of him.

I'm not sure where the wand is (and after Hatch smuggled matches in his butt, I don't want to know), but I do believe I heard him muttering "Crucio!" in GC's general direction a time or two last night.

LOL!!!!
Wasn't Ace the one in orange underpants? If so, I know exactly where his wand is.

I remember when Amanda did show her bag after hiding the II, thought it was a great move.

Thanks for sharing the Sugar luv.

I have mixed feelings about Sugar, I like her but, there are moments when she comes across as cocky, and usually that is when she is hanging out with Ace.

My husband mentioned something when we watched the show, anyone notice how when Ace is doing poorly at a challenge that he somehow suddenly gets hurt? It may be chance, but, I think its a way to take heat off himself for messing up in a challenge. I mean he makes sure that people focus on others that do poorly. I don't like him much based on what I have seen.

The elephant scene was cool, while I can understand wanting to get a closer look, these are wild animals a distance should be kept.

Yeah, much as I enjoy Ace, because he isn't playing victim out there and he isn't whining and he is thinking and playing the game.. there is something underhanded about him and he does it in a subtle way.. if he's throwing comps it is hard to tell, but your husband is probably right.. he's at least covering up well when he does mess up and deflecting attention some of the time. I have a feeling that most of them are avoiding Sugar, which is easy since she has spent so much time away at exile and since most of them on that tribe are at the point of "as long as I don't go, it is ok", why befriend her when they can plot against her? Ace is more confident and seems to be able to use her, but probably gives her her only outlet, someone she can talk to, so she is trusting him or feels he's on her side. Hopefully he is.

I just want to know why everyone likes Sugar so much? Is it because she went to Exile everytime?
I do like her but they haven't shown much of the other tribe for me to know them really.

Yes, I like her mostly because of that first visit to Exile, where she found the idol. She was very sweet.

I would like to see more of the other team too. It's been particularly lopsided coverage so far. Some of the other team I hardly recognise.

I like Sugar because she seems to be smart, level-headed and fun. She knows that others may perceive her as a "dumb blond" but she doesn't feel the need to prove herself. She will come out of nowhere and they will not know how she got there. I love the way she skips and dances as she approaches "The Sugar Shack". She is an individual and she owns it!! She seems to be enjoying this game and I love that she hasn't focused on the negative, the hardship, the pitfalls. She is having fun!!

Because success means they don't get much screen time! We know Charlie and his man crush Marcus (or should that be the other way around) and we know that there's a random female attached somewhere. Suzie fades into the woodwork pretty much. Randy isn't getting much face time now that he changed tribes and neither is Dan except to make ridiculous speeches. And then there's Bob who is my favorite castmate right now simply because he is unexpected!

The losers tribe right now gets all the screen time because they are...losers.

I get why they don't show the other tribe- Sugar just seemed to have captured so many hearts already I wondered what everyone thought.

yeah Dan seems a little dweeby even if I do think he's cute. oh well..lol

I think Sugar has shown remarkably good humor in a situation where people have been known to be less than pleasant to be around...but of course she knows she has the II and when she gets sent to Exile (which seems a lot less stressful than being left out in the pouring rain on a tropical island) she just gets to relax and eat...and perhaps she is just by nature a very pleasant person...

personally I would like to see more of Marcus (not that we HAVEN'T SEE MORE OF MARCUS) and of the interaction at the other camp. I'm sure when the merge comes we will get more of the personalities of both tribes.

I liked the way Sugar acted when she was sent to Exile the first time. She chatted with the totem guy, she joked around to the camera as she tried to decipher the clues, she cracked up at herself for finding the HII (didn't she beat out a lawyer at finding it?). She really was pleasant and joyful and fun to watch.

Just got caught up with this episode and all I can say is it was about time GC left. He really did act the loser (giving up the leadership role, stopping any effort during challenges). I'm surprised he didn't just quit, but what he did was close enuf. I guess if you get voted off you're not really a quitter, even tho you tell everyone you wanna go home? Sheesh.

Crystal. There is nothing I like about this woman, and I really wanted to like her! I really wanted to see a physically strong woman play a really good game (and not a cute little blonde getting by on you-know-what and flirting). But she's really been a disappointment, from the very first where she struggled up the hill (and isn't she a runner? Huh?). But the going thru someone's personal belongings? While I know it's "allowed" that doesn't mean you should do it. I hope like heck it backfires next week and she's the one to see her torch extinguished!

Costacat, I agree. Before the show started I was sure I would love Crystal and not like Sugar. It's just the opposite. I can't like or respect Crystal for all the reasons you mentioned. I like Sugar because she doesn't complain or bad mouth other players.

Sugar seems like a genuinely nice and likable person. Which means she's probably not long for THIS game, unfortunately!!

Possibly people like Sugar because she is so different from first perceptions. You know, the empty headed, beautiful blond that would just use her sex appeal to get futher in the game.

Instead, we have a cute, smart, and funny girl. And even when she comments about the other players, I do not sense any meaness in her.

And I loved how she is enjoying being on exile island. I do worry about how she is likely to make a dumb decision by giving Ace the idol or using it unwisely. But part of her charm is her trusting sweet and nature.

Strangely, I do not find myself blaming Ace for trying to influence her to give it to him. After all, the idea is to outwit the others. If he can do it, good for him. I just hope he does not succeed.
