Merry.. JT just cannot give up on Russell as a good ol boy in charge of things..

Pamy, I respect that he had class when he "got got" but not his gameplay or his total assumption about the female players.

I suspect there will be a hidden clip verifying that Amanda told Parvati something.. but since JT still wanted to play WITH Russell and they assumed that Parvati must have an idol (well she told Amanda she did) and then they knew Danielle had an idol, Parvati didn't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that Jerri or Sandra would be the targets and keeping all 5 villains there was the goal.

There seemed little doubt that Parvati could have won the II comp so she may be pretty confident that she can do that again, but next week there are more villains anyway.

Yeah the teased about Sandra, but.. have to wonder.

At least we now know why JT trusted Russell, he was "a good old country boy." There had to be some reason. What a silly boy. Still like him though :-).

I think Pavarti's double idol spectacular was possibly the best Survivor move ever. She knew they would be voting out one of Sandra or Jerri so she just saved them both!

She solidified her alliance with Sandra and Jerri, thinks she can woo Russell back on side (and almost certainly can) and ensured the Villains have a number advantage. She probably thinks she can get the next immunity idol anyway, but even if she can't, with the villain alliance now strong she doesn't need to. Also now she's outed herself as a strong player she's probably won votes at the final two/three if she gets there. Unless something amazing happens she's probably increased her chances of getting the viewer vote too. Loved it.

Ok.. That was the best Survivor episode EVER!!!
Those of you who think Parvati made a bad move .. well I disagree.
I think Amanda lead her to believe she was the one being voted out.. to flush out the idol.
Parvati caught on.. knew they were leading everyone to believe it was Sandra( who is a traitor) and it was really Jerri.
To be safe she played both and , some might think it was dumb to give up idols but it is better to get rid of them because it causes such caos in the game and can switch things around so much its hard to read and trust people.
This way its even playing field no second or third guessing ( like in this case! )
And I love the look on Russel's face! Was a mixture of awe and worry! Parvati and Russel are my hopes for finale 2. They both deserve it!

WOW!!!! Awesome episode!!!! What a treat!

JT, boneheaded move! His paranoia and incorrect assumption of an all girls alliance was his downfall. I like him a lot less now. I do respect that he went out with class. He gave kudos to Russ on the way out, but Russ wasn't the only one who deserved kudos. I doubt JT will vote for any female in the end. I really liked JT but am quite disappointed in him mostly for his seeming bad attitude toward women and also for his stupid gameplay.

I think russ's ego and anger at Parv for not sharing everything with him is going to be his downfall.

Parv may have been trying to solidify an alliance with Sandra, but, I don't think it will work. Sandra is there for Sandra and won't side with Parv just because Parv gave her the idol unless Sandra thinks it is in her best interest to side with Parv.

Parv doesn't care about anyone besides herself either and won't really care if Russ is gone, unless it hurts her game. She may be able to charm Russ though. Russ is smart, I'm not sure he is smart enough to overcome his ego though. His gripe about bananas at TC showed me he still doesn't put enough thought into the social game. (I'm sure he thinks he won his season, so, why would he...but still...we all know the social aspect is very important.)

Parv was annoying when she was pouting that she was an outcast or whatever. (at camp before TC) Oh boo hoo Parvati.

Candace is way under the radar at this point.

Oh, this game is SO interesting! Can't wait til next week!

JT at Ponderosa:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

I don't know what JT's problem is, but he really does seem unusually paranoid about a women's alliance. Even after Coach and Courtney explain to him that Russell and Parvati have been together from the start, he still thinks the women will turn on Russell.

I think Parvati figured it out mostly from Amanda's bad acting job, although I wouldn't be surprised if she was good enough that she even got the producers to give her some clues.

Without the villains - particularly Boston Rob, Parvati and Russell - this season would have been like watching an oil painting.

This season just gets better and better... what a jaw-dropping move! I almost couldn't keep up with the logic of why she gave both idols away. Thanks to the posts here, now I grok it. :-)

I was never that big of a JT fan, ever since his first season when he was so quick to jump on the "I hate Sierra" bandwagon with the other guys. After like 1 day of being merged, he was saying, "I hate that b!t@h" about her when Tyson was bad-mouthing her. That just kind of ruined him for me.

We saw Russels' disrespect for women last season. JT identifies with Russel because they are both "good old boys". Well, it seems to me that both of these good old boys lack respect for women. My opinion of JT has gone down for sure. Glad to see him leave the game, knowing it's a game and with a smile on his face, but blaming the women, saying you can't trust them. Not cool.

Love watching Parvati and Sandra playing the game. Something about Parvati ... everyone KNOWS how she plays, but they're still getting played by her. She charms the boys and the girls ... smh
And teflon Sandra. They all know how she is, but she's still there and you just wait, she's gonna start some stuff to keep the target off of herself and deflect it onto someone else ...

the whole TC Drama smacked of Russell's signature. I can't help but think that Russell spoke to Parvati before hand about giving the idol he knew she had, to the tribe member they had both decided to save...

I'm not putting down Pavarti's gameplay...I think she plays the game as good as if not better than Russell...but the whole public drama thing was never her style before...but it DEFINITELY is Russell's style.

In any event, I LOVED IT...and cannot wait to see how Russell is going to react to Pavarti keeping secrets from him...LOL

Ok, I haven't been watching this year, but based on some spoiler information decided to watch last night and LOVED it. Am I reading this right? Did JT basically get booted by his own Hidden Immunity Idol?

I lost all respect for JT saying that about women. Really, JT? I am hoping for a Sandra or Parvati win. But really as long as Russel does not win I will be happy.

Russel and JT are going to give the "good ole boys" a bad rep.

Part of the problem with JT's "you can't trust women" statement, is that one woman was trying to clue him in - he just wasn't listening.

When JT gave his HII to Russell, Russell was saying, "you never give your HII to a Villian"..... oops.

I thought Russell made a big mistake last night and didn't get caught. When he was talking to JT and Rupert and was asked what happened at TC (when Courtney went home), he said he and Parv both played idols at the same time. Then he said that he and Parv couldn't vote and the rest of them voted Court and Court voted Jeri. (At least, I thought he said those things.) I thought he slipped up by saying that because it doesn't make sense. Why would Parv and Russ not be allowed to vote? I think he messed up and JT and Rupert didn't catch it.

Am I wrong? Jeff didn't mention anything about what I just described in his blog either. Oh well.

I also think Rupert should have made more of a case for believing Sandra since he didn't ask her leading questions, he just asked her what happened.

I think Russ got away with his non-sense answer because no one really knows what would happen if all of the votes were nullified by 2 idols being played. that has never happened.

I laughed when JT tried to apply Occam's Razor to why he believe's Russell about why Parvati is still there at the merge. In my mind the simplest answer is that there just wasn't a girl's alliance in the first place and Russell is lying, especially after Sandra gave them the info. But in JT's mind the simplest answer is(was) the more complicated explanation. Not a big deal, it just made me chuckle :-)

Happymom... I didn't think it made much sense either. Only thing I could think of was if there was a tie vote, then R & P played idols, the vote turned out to be a tie for Parv and Russ, then they would not vote in re-vote. I think Rupert and JT were fixated on the fact that the "girls" would vote Russ and Russ was told to vote Parv... so they thought it was possible.

But come on there was a odd number of villians voting... couldn't be a tie. They didn't think or question.

My respect for Sandra went wa-a-a-ay down with her tattling to Rupert last night. What a turncoat. Blah.
And my respect for Parvati went up because of her brillant use of the idols.
