The Frank &Tom Alliance?
The ClubHouse: Archives: The Frank &Tom Alliance?
Grooch | Friday, December 14, 2001 - 06:43 pm   Frank approached Tom in the last show and tried to get Tom to join him and Theresa in an alliance and make it to the final 3. We know Tom and Ethan are worried about Lex. Do you think Tom will abandoned his original alliance, or will he stick it out him? |
Willi | Friday, December 14, 2001 - 06:53 pm   I wish he would abandon it but I think he'll stick with it unless something big goes down behind the scenes. <sigh> |
Fruitbat | Friday, December 14, 2001 - 07:26 pm   I think he will stay with Lex and Ethan. I do not think they are worried about Lex. He may be irritating them but it is a smooth ride to the final 3 at this point. |

Sawheel17 | Saturday, December 15, 2001 - 09:11 am   Didn't they just shake hands over the "Brandon OuT' vote? I don't think Tom would leave Ethan and if Lex keeps acting they way he is, Tom knows he won't have to worry about him either because he'll be GONE if he doesn't win IC. And I'm so proud of Mamakim.So I really hope her vote is with the girls or at least with T\E. |
Gina8642 | Saturday, December 15, 2001 - 01:03 pm   I think Tom is sticking with his allience unless something else (a annoying event by Lex, etc.) comes up. Anything else would be a mistake. However, Lex just pushed himself to the first to go out of the final four, and Tom may want to keep Frank around longer then the other Sam.s. |
Gina8642 | Saturday, December 15, 2001 - 01:05 pm   Frank could then keep himself around longer by winning some key immunity challenges. He has a good chance of this. He is a good athlete, seems to be dealing with the lack of food well. He seems able to concentrate even under difficult situaltions, all this makes him a threat in challenges. |
Knightpatti | Saturday, December 15, 2001 - 05:24 pm   If Lex has his way Frank will be the next to go. But from Brandon's talks it does not seem he is on the jury yet. But remember in Kelly's talks, she said that she loves Frank. Brandon made it sound like he and Kelly spent all their time together. |
Bidasea | Sunday, December 16, 2001 - 09:31 am   I think winning the immunity challenge will be the deciding factor in the rest of the shows. Frank is strong, but he gets some bad breaks in these challenges. He didn't do well in the bow and arrow, and he fell, and had to be helped along by Brandon last week. Frank says that he is using Teresa to be his go between with the others. I think she is loyal to him..But in the end, if they keep winning immunity, I think Ethan, Tom, Mama Kim, and Lex will stick together. Tom likes Frank, and probably Ethan does too, but Ethan said "I'm looking to preserve our foursome"..I'm looking out for Tommy". And I think Kim P. and probably even Teresa also like Tom, so it looks like the rest are out if they don't win some immunity challenges. |
Misslibra | Sunday, December 16, 2001 - 12:15 pm   Frank and Tom all the way!! And like someone else said I think Tom has figured out if he keeps Frank till the end he would have a better chance of winning since some people aren't to fond of Frank. This reminds be of Keith in last years Survivor. |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, December 16, 2001 - 03:24 pm   This woudl be a unique allaince. It crosses original tribal lines, which we don't see happen to often. However the way they show them on the air, I can see how they might gravitate to each other. Both are hard workers, and like to keep things simple. Both would rather show who they really are as opposed to putting up a front. That said, I wonder if they will seek out Teresa and Ethan to join in. Thoes 4 would make a stable alliance. Not much could shake them. |
Awareinva | Thursday, December 20, 2001 - 03:32 pm   I just rewatched episode 9-- the handshake didn't happen unless it was just for Brandon being voted out. They were having the conversation and Frank said something to the effect of you me and Teresa could take this thing to the final 3. What Tom said was to the effect of --If I shake your hand on something you can count on it. Frank then said I know I know and if I see you stick it out then then we'll run on it-- or something like that- tom was talking over that last part. But....that means to me they never shook- at least at that point. Why else would Frank be waiting for Tom to stick his hand out? So ... my thinking is that Tom really likes Frank, but will not vote Lex out himself. Now when it comes to final 6, if it happens to be Ethan, MamaK, Tom, Lex, Frank and Teresa-- it could get interesting. Boran could vote Frank. But if just one Boran (one who hasn't promised Lex his word- Ethan, MamaK ??) would vote with Frank and T-bird against Lex, he would be gone. He has more votes than Frank- at least I think he does at this point. So Tom could effectively get Lex out and still never break his handshake. This speculation will mean more after tonight's episode and we see if KimP goes. |
