What a slime ball! I never liked him. Though he did have some funny moments.

I taped it but haven't seen it yet, I'm about 10 hours behind on TV because of vacation (haven't even seen the Clarence boot episode yet). Was there anything really enlightening and were the new scenes really worth watching? I wanted to see a scene of the infamous "bean incident" - did they show one? I want to know what was really discussed. Unlike the "beef jerky" we know this one actually happened!

Well, now I know where they wash up...

So, I gather the regular show wasn't on last night. I was out and taped only the re-cap. I hope I didn't miss the regular episode.

I found it interesting. I had been really hard on Lindsay, but now I feel sorry for her, she is an emotional wreck (IMO).

Car54 is right, I saw Clarence on tv, either the early show or Regis, & he admitted to opening & burying the beans, definetly because HE was hungry.

Where d they get off poking fun at Clarences make up? Lex, last time I looked, you had full body permanent makeup on, your ugy da*m tattoos.

i too totally forgot that jessie was on the boran team, they should have kept her and gotten rid of mamakim, after all she went back to help mamakim in one of the challenges when she fell.

i understand frank and his antlers and clarence and is war paint, it's all symbolic and how they get ready for a challenge after all the challenges are like going to war, and lex cetainly had no room to talk with most of his body covered with tatoos (even though i like tatoos and have one myself).

but the recap doesn't make up for the fact that survivor is just getting stale. i should have watched friends.

I was surprised with Kelly's reaction to Clarence's war paint. She even said something about him not sharing it. What, was she jealous and wanted to paint up too? It was kinda like a little kid who sees a toy someone else has, and gets all bent out of shape cause they don't have one too. Geez!

She said it was the height of "selfishness" (I guess that means not sharing), but she tried to equate it to women's makeup and then falsies...which was missing the point entirely...Mamakim sounded as if she was just making those Mm--hmm noises one makes when one only somewhat agrees...

The interesting part was when Clarence left, he gave Kelly his warpaint. When she showed her vote, she thanked him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa..just found out Silas was 23. For some reason I thought he was older, Not by the way he acted mind you, but maybe....I'm not sure.

That Diane drove me crazy when they were trying to get water and Jeff made a point to say and Mamakim fell again and Boran lost again, they should have voted her off early but they are stuck with her for now,I think she will go sooner now because she can not keep up with the other ones. We should have done a poll on how many times she has fell. I didnt get Lex at all, him talking about Clarence when Lex looks like a road map.

Yes, seeing Diane at the watering hole flipping out really reinforced their decision to vote her out first instead of Clarence in my mind! What a kook!

Ok, I'm totally ashamed to be thinking this, let alone posting it! (I'm very happily married with two wonderful children) But..... I'd forgotten what a total cute hottie Silas is! Wow. Pure eye candy. (sheepish grin) He was a dork though, so, glad he's gone.

Okay, I missed the part about Diane flipping out at the water hole. What did she do?

Who, they were at their water source and Tom was leading them in digging the water hole deeper so the water on top would be clear.
Diane was pretty useless, but they posted her as the lookout for wild animals while the others worked. First she was clapping non-stop (yep-its a well known fact that wild animals are scared of clapping!), then she thought she heard a lion and made everyone stop work, then she made them stop because the bugs were biting her.
She came across as pretty dippy. Clarence was really nice to her-tried to make her feel better about thinking she heard a lion. Tom, in a diary piece said how weak he thought she was from the minute she got off the truck.

This is kinda cruel, but I think it is strange that Diane ever got to be in this game. Then her paranoia earned her vote outa there, which was one of the best moves they have made. It's ironic that even though she was voted off, she ended up having to stay in Africa (wondering when some lion was going to get her, or being eaten by mosquitoes which MIGHT carry malaria)! She was the original whiner.

I am curious as to whether the survivors were told certain survival tactics which may have included clapping hands. No one acted like Diane was doing anything out of the ordinary. They seem to have been told some things by the way the survivors handle certain situations. I know they have to keep watch at night, but how do they know how to keep a lion out of their camp?

As for Kelly dissing Clarence's warpaint, I immediately thought that she was envious. Clarence must have known it too. Why else would he give his luxury item to her when he left.

Urgrace, I don't know the details, but they had a couple of days of survival school with an expert before the drop-off, and the "book" they have with them seems to have a lot of survival lore.

The thing we know from some other bootees is that they knew there were armed guards just out of sight range at all times....

Maybe Diane didn't understand this since it was just the first day. I think she was just totally unprepared for the reality- thought it would be more like camp or something.

Yes Car, I thought they had some survival training, because the survivors have mentioned certin tactics to deal with the elements and animals (like the snakes on I and II). I heard Jeff tell them that they had to post people on watch during the nights, but was unaware of the armed guards.

I still think Diane was actually lucky to be voted off right away if it scared her that bad! What was she thinking? Gumption should be one of the top qualities of the people picked to be survivors!

Yep, I wouldn't cut it one full day....I am a total wimp about outdoorsy stuff...they would have to convene an early tribal council just to vote me out!

But Snee, you are the bee-snee-s!

Why is it that everyone assumes that when Ethan said "two of his best friends" left Boran, that he meant Tom and Lex? Maybe he was saying Tom and Kelly or Lex and Kelly. Kelly was scheming and telling the guys about what they should do and how she was going to try to find out who had votes against them all while they were hiking to Samburu. She has been eavesdropping on conversations and manipulating people for some time. I still think there's more to this gal. We haven't really seen all yet.
