In Russels imaginary tribal council where he used his gifted idol --- there was a revote because he told them P used an idol. So, all votes would have been cancelled and the vote was zero. So, they'd have to vote again.

Yes Brenda... but Russ said he and Parv couldn't vote... That didn't make sense but no one questioned him

Let's say they did not believe him...what more could they do? They decided to test him by seeing who he voted for. By then it was too late to turn back.

I don't think they questioned him because they weren't suspicious of him! They trusted him. They showed him they trusted him by not questioning him. They were fools!

How long before Russell works out: Parv had to know she was safe and chose to save Sandra/Jerri, and Danielle had immunity...that left him the lone wolf without protection. Can he filp sides now? Mind you, he can spin this to say, "That just proves the women's alliance. They were all safe and I was left on my own". Maybe they buy it...maybe not

Interesting Lyn! I wonder if Russ will say that.

If it is devious and self-serving, I think we can count on Russell to trot it out!

I knew the story was not all told, he would never push a women to the ground. The "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" star who was arrested for battery in Louisiana yesterday claims the whole thing is a "misunderstanding" -- and is considering taking legal action against the cops who busted him. A source close to Russell Hantz tells TMZ the reality star was partying near a bar he owns in Lafayette, LA Friday morning when some random partygoer told cops they saw Hantz push a woman. We're told the alleged victim was a member of Hantz's party crew and she told cops that Hantz never touched her. But according to our source, cops told Hantz that because they had a witness statement, they were going to arrest him anyway. We're told Hantz believes the cops mistreated him during the incident -- and now he's considering taking legal action against the arresting officers.

It makes much more sense that he and the woman are lying than that strangers just picked on him to make a false statement. The young woman might have lied because she works for him or wants to work for him or is very close to him. He might lie to save his tush. What reason would complete strangers have to make that story up? It's very common in domestic violence that the victim denies it. If she and Russell know each other, she might even be afraid of what he would do if she admitted he hurt her.

jealousy, drunk and thought they saw him, hate that he is famous, many reasons for someone to make up a story.

I'm sure Russell has lots of people who don't like him from Survivor and would love to see him get in trouble. So I could easily see someone making it up or exaggerating.

According to the police spokesman the woman suffered minor injuries. How did she get injured if nothing happened? The spokesman also said the 18 year old victim and a witness said Russell had pushed her to the ground.

From what I've seen of Russell on TV (edited and all) I wouldn't trust what comes out of his mouth. For me he seems untrustworthy especially when it comes to a situation like pushing a person down...I'd expect him to lie and to bully the young woman he is said to have pushed.

I'm sorry, but Russell has no credibility with me. I would believe the witnesses long before I would believe Russell. I've seen his bad atitude towards women when he's sober, I can't imagine what he's like drunk.

Russell has admitted he can control anyone and any situation. He's even said he built a successful business by stepping on anyone who got in his way. I think that's exactly what he's trying to do now in this situation.

Russell is a lot of things...negative things...and I am by no means a Hantz advocate...but comeon...the man is not that stupid by any means. If Russell was prone to physical domestic violence, he would certainly be smart enough to not subject himself to possible arrest by doing anything that blatantly obvious in public in front of numerous witnesses. Personally I think it was a group of drunk people, horsing around...someone fell and got hurt. Others watching may have seen what they thought was Russell pushing...but it could have been him trying to grab her as she began to fall. When the police were involved, I could see Russell's arrogant nature not helping the situation...which could have led to the so called bad treatment he claims to have suffered from the police. Perception is in the eye of the beholder...and since I do not know the relationship between Russell and the woman who got hurt, I have no reason to not believe either of them.

If Russell told me it was daytime, I'd go to the window to check. If his mouth is moving, he's lying. Whatever he says, the reality is just the opposite.

Based on Russell's actions in Survivor, I too would do a double take out the window. But believing someone is capable of lying about the weather is one thing...Believing someone is capable of physical violence against women based on his record of lying is another. jes saying...

There are other people who have shown more violence on Survivor than Russell. The much beloved Rupert to name one of them.

He is playing a game where lying is acceptable. It doesnt mean he is that way in life.

It must have been a wild night because in the same bar: 'Survivor' Star Accused of Battering a Woman Originally posted Apr 28th 2010 4:20 PM PDT by TMZ Staff The horrible week for CBS reality stars continues -- TMZ has learned another "Survivor" star has been cited in Louisiana after cops say he battered a woman inside a bar restroom over the weekend. Kenward "Boo" Bernis -- who competed on "Survivor: Fiji" back in 2007 -- is accused of walking into a ladies restroom at Bootleggers Bar in Lafayette, grabbing a woman by the upper arm and "forcibly move[ing] her." As we've previously reported, another "Survivor" contestant -- Russell Hantz -- was also arrested in Lafayette on Friday for battering a woman. Hantz also co-owns the Bootleggers Bar where Bernis' alleged incident went down. And over on "Big Brother" -- two dudes from Season 9 are in all sorts of trouble for allegedly operating an illegal prescription drug ring. Attempts to reach Bernis were unsuccessful.

Hmmm...even after looking at "Boo's" pick in the article, I have absolutely no recollection of him.

I finally caught up to this episode and it turned out to be a really good one. Parvati has many surprises up her sleeve and I'm really glad that she does; it's good to know she's not being run by Russell, she's a lot smarter than he seems to realize. I thought it was great that she busted out both idols, that was fantastic. I'm still rooting for Sandra, but it will be great if Parvati gets to the finals; even though she most likely has an even larger target on her back, I think she has it in her to pull off another win--we'll see. That was a really great play, though, hats off to Parvati.
