Promo Transcript

Jeff Probst: Next time on Survivor...

1
Ace <confessional>: I just don't know who would be my potential Benedict Arnold.

2
Ace <to Matty>: Until the merge, you are on your word that you aren't going to stab me in the back?

3
Matty <confessional>: I've made a pact with Ace.

Ace: Deal?
Matty: Deal.

4
Sugar: Should I give you the idol?
Ace: If you want to give me the Idol that's up to you.

5
Ace <confessional>: This is going to be the start of a great run for me. I have complete supremacy.

I think Sugar is the one that says the title this week.

Ace better not screw up her game!

CBS Misdirection Clues for the 10/23 show:

One tribe makes a lucky catch that results in an exotic feast.

One castaway's guilt drives her to tears on her stay at Exile.

In the wake of a tough loss, one castaway's emotional outburst causes her to become a target.

One castaway's large appetite has his tribe on edge as the camp's rations begin to dwindle.

The hidden immunity idol changes possession, rousing suspicion for one castaway.

Maybe Surgar is a target because they all know she has the idol.

Sugar seems pretty smart. I don't think she would give it away.

Sugar seems pretty mesmerized - like if I had been hollering right, right, right, and Ace had gone left, left, left - I MIGHT have mentioned it!

And how could Ace have taken Randy's voice for Sugar's? Dumb a$$! So don't ask her to use the HII!

According to Jeff's blog this week, he still cannot understand why players continue to find the hidden II and then put it in their belongings where the other members of the tribe can find it. He says that having the thing and the others not knowing that you have it is where a lot of the power is.

But, on the other hand.......Dalton Ross doesn't agree with Jeff cause he says you never know when a switch is going to take place, or when you are going to be told to get up and go, and you don't have time to recover your hidden II. He thinks the producers should make it against the rule to go through other player's possessions.

I tend to agree with Dalton on this one!!!

I'm with Dalton too.. Keep their fingers out of someone's bag.

Jeff also rails against them sending home strong competitors, but again, they never know when there will be a merge and they may WANT those strong people gone already.

Pamy, your link did not come through. Page Not Found.

But I do remember Osten. He was a VERY fine and vigorous-looking young man but he was used to eating about 4000 calories a day, and he went down like a bucket of wet concrete. Yau Man and this season's Bob could have whipped his ass after the first week, and they are 90 pound weaklings.

Once again, thanks to Survivor Fever for the pics:

Promo Transcript

Sugar <talking to Ken>: I gave Ace the idol.
1
Ken: What?

Announcer: Is this the biggest blunder in Survivor history?

2
Ace <talking to Sugar>: Trust me.

Announcer: Two extreme challenges test the castaways.
3
4
5
6

Just taking a guess here that the one where we see Matty running over tree trunks is a different challenge, but at this point, I'm not sure if it's the same challenge as the spider-web looking thing or not. Time will tell.

Survivor Fever has their speculation of the challenge in the pictures I've posted above. They say that the players are tethered together in groups of two. Matty jumping over the trunks is tethered to Ken behind him. Under the web it appears to be Kelly and Sugar tethered together. So, I guess that leaves Ace and Crystal to be tethered together. They also say after crawling through under the web, there are flags at the jungle side, so they must run through the jungle after crawling under the web??? In the picture above they also say they think Bob is tethered to Randy. They think they see Charlie in a picture under the web and there is the picture above of Dan under the web. Not sure yet who sits out...Marcus, Corinne or Susie...but I can't imagine Marcus sitting out something this physical.

Once again...thanks to pic captures by Survivor Fever:

Episode 6 Challenge: Snake Challenge

1
Kota carrying yellow snake prop

2
Fang carrying red snake prop

I think this is the Immunity Challenge cause coming into the challenge you can see all 7 of the Kota tribe here:
3
and only 5 of the Fang tribe here:
4
which makes me think that Sugar was once again sent to Exile Island and will be joining them momentarily. If that's the case, Fang lost the RC.

A quick hello! I'm a new poster but long-time lurker. . . .

After having watched all Survivor episodes since Day 1, I have to ask these rhetoric questions: What in the name of heaven would posses someone to make them GIVE UP THE IMMUNITY IDOL? Do these people NOT HAVE BRAINS??

(Thank you. I feel better now.)

And, a question about Ace: Has anyone else noticed that his "accent" comes and goes?

I did read that Jeff wondered if Ace's accent was real. . . . .}

Well, I'm going with Jeff seems to like Sugar. I don't think he would think so highly of her if she was part of the "biggest blunder in Survivor History".

Well...I'm just wondering if the whole thing is a hoax. I'm wondering if Ace and Sugar didn't plan something where they act like Ace has the idol, so Sugar will be the target (to save Ace's rear), and the vote is for Sugar but she has the idol and plays it. Then, whoever Ace and Sugar wanted to vote off would be the goner...like Kelly, or maybe Crystal.
