Over the week-end we got pictures about the river-rafting reward from the reward challenge of the next episode of Survivor: Tocantins! Here's what I have. Cut and pasted from the CBS Misdirection: An unlikely trio find themselves enjoying an epic reward together. So, from this we know that 3 people get to go on the reward.
Thanks to Survivor Fever, we have the above pics. Since there are 9 players left, and 3 get to go, and we see 3 colors in the buffs of the above pictures, we can figure --- 3 teams of 3, red/black/white.
Thanks to Survivor Phoenix, we have this pic. Overhead view of the raft shows 3 yellow helmets for the Survivors, one black in the front for the guide, and probably one in the back in a black helmet. Now, who gets to go .....??? Also, thanks to Survivor Phoenix we get a close up shot, but all 3 faces in the yellow helmets have been blurred out. I had to reduce the picture so small to bring it over, that I have taken the libert to keep it the same size and cut it into two halves.
TNT says that one of the winners is Brendan, so that means they speculate the black team wins. The clue about an unlikely trio and the pic makes TNT say also that Coach is there. The third person would be a female .... not Taj. I say it's also not Erinn since she is wearing a white buff and would have been on the white team, so I can't figure out why TNT has Erinn and Sierra as their two guesses for the females. I think it would be Sierra or Debra.
I found this pic and Debra has something black laid over her shoulder. Is it the black buff from the challenge and she gets to go with Brendan and Coach on the raft ride? Or, is this a group back at camp that didn't get to go? Or is this a picture from last week? You never really know! Probably no Exile anymore. No sure! No info on the IC yet!

The more I look at Debra in the last picture, at her left arm.....the more I think that is her behind Brendan in the last picture of the raft segment I have above. Even though TDT says Coach is there, I'm just not too sure that arm on the other side from Brendan is Coach. It looks more like a Stephen arm to me. Now that would be a very unlikely trio ... Brendan, Stephen and Debra. It has nothing to do with the boot for the week, but bonding on a raft trip might have everything to do with a boot decision for the week...you just never know!

Doesn't Coach have tattoos on his arm? I don't see any tats on any arms.

If CBS can blur out their faces, they can also blur out the tattoos. I still think it's Stephen's arm, but I wouldn't go against it being Coach's arm just because the tattoos don't show up. Remember how CBS tries to color buffs and other things to throw us off sometimes!

Some of the posters over at Survivor Blows seem to think that is Taj behind the guide, and Tyson next to the guids with Debbie behind Tyson.

Do I see tats on the person furthest to the right in the picture? Of course, it could be shadows - I hate to think of Coast getting to do something fun!

Well, if you look at one of the pictures further up, it's pretty sure it is Debbie is the rear (she is out of this picture). And, if you agree with people over at Survivor Blows that the person behind the guide has the skin texture/color of Taj, then the guy has to be Tyson cause he is the other one wearing a red headband in the challenge. Now look at this other picture that Survivor Phoenix has come up with. I had to shrink it to bring it over, but before I did, I cut it into the two halves for us to look at better.
Now, can we see anything better of the person behind the guide? I really am not sure who gets to go, except I'm sure that is Debbie in the back (which in this picture looks like she must have drown - LOL). I really wish we had pictures of the IC!!!

Maybe the Biggest Fraud is where someone clues Taj into the fact that Stephen ISN'T her BFF, while he's gone on the raft trip? He may well have hidden the II elsewhere, just for 'safe keeping'. Just speculating, but wouldn't things get squirrely & fun?

Tribephyl over at Survivor Blows has come up with this Scenario for the results of the RC, using this picture, which makes some sense to me.
Here's Brendan, with JT and Stephen and Sierra (all we can see in this pic is her leg, but she is there) sitting around the campfire, leisurely, nobody looking around to see if somebody else is walking up on them like Tyson or Coach or Debbie. Brendan lays out the plan of the 4 of them with Taj. So, by this time Brendan has been brought into the loop knowing that JT is knowledgeable about the alliance. There is a video over at the CBS website that shows Taj telling Stephen and JT while out on a walk that she has told Brendan the others are gunning for him. Stephen quickly tells her that she didn't talk that over with him, and JT starts telling her why she shouldn't be filling Brendan in, and Taj starts backpeddling, realizing that JT didn't know about Brendan at that point. She says, "I didn't know about it. I just made it up" and JT seemed to believe her. So, since Taj isn't sitting with this little group at the campfire but Brendan is including her, Tribephyl surmizes that Taj is off on reward with the rafts...which means Tyson and Debbie are gone with her. If two were picked from the losing trios by the winning trio for the raft trip, Tribephyl surmizes that Erinn and Coach are at Exile (wouldn't that be a hoot?). So, Taj with Debbie and Tyson would be an unlikely trio, and those back at camp could worry that Taj would bond with Tyson and Debbie ... fits the misdirection by CBS. And the 4 in the picture relaxing together, I don't think Coach and Erinn would have just walked away on a leisurely stroll together willingly. Oh, and knowing Erinn was on the white team, that means Coach must have originally been on the black team with Brendan. This is all speculation........still has nothing to do with the IC and the boot (DARN!!!).

For those that can't get the above link...Survivor Fever has the transcript up. ************************************ Transcript: Jeff Probst: Well, last week's episode was certainly dramatic. Having to send Joe home was not fun. We never want that to happen. He definitely didn't want to go home but the doctors intervened and said it was absolutely necessary, so, no Tribal Council, Joe is gone. In this episode, Erinn, who, I have to say I really didn't think would last this long, I thought she'd be gone by now. Not only is she still in the game, she's starting to get cocky. Erinn's starting think, "Eh, I'm pulling a few strings here. Erinn <in confessional>: When you break it down you've got my original tribe where we knew I was the first one out. Then I have these new kids who are down in numbers and really need a fourth. But no matter how the dice rolls I've got some room to play around. It's really nice. Jeff Probst: And Coach, bless his heart. Coach, are you listening? It's not hard to write C-O-A-C-H. Shut the trap. Moonwalk back to quiet land for a minute. Let's keep you in this game. Screen captioning: Coach talking around a fire: "I was air-lifted in. I had a military helicopter drop...actually drop me off...and they take turns beating me with a club...

Well, it's Wednesday morning and I'm fixing to drive a couple of hours away for 4 days to help my sister pack up for their big move. So, I'm nosing around to see what's new at the other sites, and not much. To start with: Survivor Fever has yet to update their Bootlist. The one that is up still has Joe on it, so that means it hasn't been touched. TDT has this picture of the raft reward.
TDT thinks it is Brendan, Coach and Debbie in the raft ... so, if that is the case, that is who makes up the black team in the challenge. TDT also thinks that Taj goes to Exile, Coach wins reward, and Tyson gets the boot. This is all speculation. The only thing that might be a hint to the IC is the green tile with a red X on it that is seen at camp just above Brendan's shoulder in the picture I posted at Tuesday, April 14, 2009 - 6:12 am. No idea what it means, but TDT says maybe "Tic Tac Toe"??? I'll go snoop some more and see what I find.

Very mixed bag of ideas out there this week. Over at Survivor Blows there is more than one scenario for the raft. We've already discussed the Tyson, Debbie and Taj one. Another one is Brendan, J.T. and Debbie/Sierra. So.........really........nobody knows! Also, at Survivor Blows, the voting has started with 6 votes in: Tyson 3, Coach 2, and Erinn 1. The SOTS (State of the Spoiling) is not posted yet (I can understand why). At Survivor Skills, Dani is hoping Stephen gets the boot this week. She says Tyson has the Todd Herzog endorsement (whatever that means) so she doesn't think Tyson is leaving. And that's all I have............

Survivor Fever has updated their boot list and they have Coach and Brendan as vulnerable.

However, Coach is clearly all blabber while Tyson has shown very physical in the challenges, as well as closely aligned with Coach. Instead of the 'Dragonslayer' targeted, could it be they decide to chop off the 'Dragonslayer's sword with his right-hand man? Brendan said before that he kind of likes Coach - because Coach is so predictable. This is sure a curious ep coming up.

Out-of-town, and checking in. When I saw the post that Coach and Brendan were vulnerable over at Survivor Fever's Boot List, I couldn't believe Tyson wasn't vulnerable...........but I just went to check it out and ...... Vulnerable Coach Brendan Tyson Sounds like one of our alpha-males is leaving this evening.

It will probably be Brendan because he's one of my favorites and I can't stand the other two.

Tyson is strong. So, it would be smart to vote him off before Coach.

Tyson has the perfect build to make him a challenge threat. Plenty of muscle to get the job done, but not all the extra weight that would make it hard for him to hold up in balance/endurance comps like that one on the poles last week. I'd love to see Coach go, but I think the smart move would to be to get Tyson out as soon as he does not win an immunity challenge. Which would be more fun, watching Coach get blind-sided or watching Coach while his "Assistant Coach" is blind-sided?

Checking in from out-of-state. Have packed at least 40 boxes since yesterday for my sister's move, and I am some sore!!! Survivor Blows --- 27 votes in, and 19 of them say Tyson is speculated for the boot. TDT still shows they are speculating a Tyson boot. Survivor Skills ... Dani feels Tyson is a safe bet to use in the Suicide Game which means you pick the player you think if not getting the vote. She must know something??? I'll try to get the new thread set up in the morning, but don't have my picture transfer software here at my sister's, but I'll be home late Saturday........so stay tuned!!!

The best for me would be to see Tyson blindsided.. but since he'll be on the jury, he then could have a front row seat to see Coach sent off..
