Here's a thought for keeping the tribe strong - instead of voting out either guy, why not vote out a gal? J.T. seems to be the only one on the tribe smarter than a mushroom! And good for Russell for giving Rob credit for being smart enough to figure out a game plan to oust Russell or Parvati. Then Russell only had to swing a vote to Parvati, but what I can't figure out is how he knew who to approach for the swing. If he (R) had talked w/someone who was ALREADY voting Parvati for the 3-3 split, the plan would have backfired, wouldn't it?

Amanda had that sad eyed about to cry look through the whole TC.....now I know it was because she knew she was voting James out.

Tyson gets the award for most bone-headed move of the season! He surely didn't talk to Rob about his vote, like he should have, just switched it for no apparent reason?! Why not let the tie play itself out. Foolish. Russel does seem to know what he's doing, which is really scary. I don't want to see him oust Rob. I think it was Dani who was suprised to see Tyson go. She was expecting the tie and revote. Rob just sat there silently stunned. Dani was giddy with excitement because that's the outcome they wanted but didn't expect to see!

Tnt...I have the very same question...how *did* Russell know to go to Tyson??? Smells REALLY fishy to me, same as how he always finds the "hidden" immunity idols. I think the producers are helping russell more than just a little ;-) I can't wait 'til he goes and hope we never have to suffer him again on Survivor. For me, he's totally ruined any credibility the show had. His many 'unique skills' just stink of set up to me.

I think he chose Tyson because there was really no one else to choose. He knows how Jeri feels about PArv, so it's safe to assume she's already voting for her. Russel knows how Sandra feels about him. REmember that we don't always see everything. Russel probably talked to Coach and coach assured him he wouldn't vote for Russel, so there's no reason to get Coach to change his vote. Russel knows he can't go to Rob, the mastermind. I'm not sure we have enough info about Russel and Courtney's relationship. Tyson was the obvious choice as it seems he and Russel have some kind of amicable relationship.

Holly, I think Russel has a mole on the other side. Sandra is my fav player of all time and I am willing to bet it's her. Wasn't her little speech a bit over the top? I am thinking there's some behind the scenes cahoots with them that they (survivor editors) won't show us until they have to. eta: by "other side" I mean a different alliance on the same tribe.

This was one of the best Survivors ever. It's so much fun watching brilliant players battle it out. We like both Rob and Russell and we were cheering them both on. We thought Rob had him beat and then Russell makes his amazing play and Tyson totally messed up for both himself and Rob. Argh for Rob but amazing on Russell's part. What I particularly like about Russell's play is how he sees the big picture and thinks ahead. He could easily have taken the safe route like so many other players would and played the idol for himself but he knew that he would probably be voted out next tribal council anyway. So he saved someone on his side instead and lived to carry on. Great long-term thinking and great play.

Yes, some of us do. The show won't be as entertaining with either of them gone.

LOL - Well I was referring to the people watching with me in our house but I'm glad to hear that there are other people who feel that way too, Sally. I find them both extremely entertaining. I love a good match-up and they are having a great battle.

For some reason I thought the person who played the idol had to have it in their possession before they entered Tribal Council. Obviously I was wrong. Not sorry to see James go. He was fine to look at, but his mouth was just too ugly to hear any more.

Danielle was the third person who voted Tyson. You may not even know she is in the game. She is not getting much air time.

So nobody else thought Sandra's comments about Russel and the HII were "curiously" over the top? So curious that it may be a front? Well, I think it.

Rob - yes. Russell - no. They both have egos. But after Russell's boasting and losing and some language about the females last season -- I still can't tolerate him. Occasionally, I hold grudges. (Lemme tell you about a cousin of mine . . . . After many many years, I started talking to her only a few ago.)

Sandra seems to always make over the top comments. I'd be floored if they were in cahoots together. Did you see what she said as she voted for him? She doesn't like Russel. There would be no reason for her to pretend to dislike him when voting.

I don't see Sandra in cahoots with Russell, I think she's hitched her star to Rob, and smart to do so, they're an awesome team! Whoami, I was under the same impression about the idol...I thought you had to arrive at TC with it in your possession. I would really really hate to think the producers are playing with the rules just to make evil Russell look even better. I want him gone!

Was Tyson's the most stupid reality show move since Marcellus in BB? I was so hoping Russell would be gone!!

For some reason I thought the person who played the idol had to have it in their possession before they entered Tribal Council. Obviously I was wrong. I found this at Wikipedia, whoami. You might be right if this is legit. Once found, the player with an idol may keep it or give it to another player before the start of Tribal Council, and it may not be stolen from that player.

LOL Kitt GMTA...I came here to post that I felt the only thing missing from tonight's Survivor was Jeff Probst hitting Tyson on the head with an index card!!!! You guys can add me to the LOVE Rob, HATE (loathe and despise) Russell. I can't even stomach hearing his arrogant voice anymore. To me the best part is knowing that Russell will eventually watch this at home, being full of himself, and saying how it would be brilliant and so intelligent if they would be smart enough to split the vote, then see Rob begging everyone to do that and explaining it to them. I have a feeling Tyson's stupidity may hurt Rob and Co, which will be a damn shame if that happens IMHO!

I would suspect that if Russell had a mole, it would be Coach. They had a "bonding" moment a couple of episodes ago. But I think Russell probably just approached Tyson and sounded him out. It might not have been the omly person he talked to. As was said, we don't always get to see everything. As Tyson said, Russell probably gained some respect with his move. Whether it will help him or hinder him remains to be seen. You have to think he gained the two girls trust and they will vote with him whenever they can. He may have also gained Coach's respect because he likes to think he is all about loyalty and trust. Notice that Russell brought the loyalty and trust issue to Coach's attention as he handed the idol to Parvariti. I have to admit that I was again rooting for Russell to pull it off, not because I like him all that much, but because it is great entertainment. I would hate to see him go. And as much as I have come to like Rob, I have found him even more arrogant and cocky than Russell this season. It was good to see him taken down a notch.

I'm not a fan of Rob's at all. But it's funny. I dislike Rob for the exact same reasons why I like Russell - arrogance, gameplay, etc
