Did we ever see the purple tribe get food of ANY kind? After three days, I didn't see them eating at all. They had water, were they able to boil it? Did they have fire? Their floor was pathetic and useless, for gods sake, why didn't they build a roof of large leaves and palm fronds first and then worry about the floor. Who ever is in charge of that tribe sucks big time.

Your guess is as good as mine. I couldn't believe that fire wasn't a central focus of the first show. I even watched my tape again to see if maybe I missed a fire but the only fire I saw in either tribes hands was when they left Tribal Council. As for food, I never saw the purple tribe eat anything either. I'm guessing that the broke into that can of beans but that is only a guess.

Didn't the red team have all the shellfish? The crabs and such? I don't remember seeing them eat it, though I remember the huge pail of crabs that they had! I'm hoping they didn't eat it raw, LOL.

I saw fire at one of the camps. Can't remember which one but it was towards the end. They were cooking something over it---long something (like eels or somethin) on long sticks. I'll check my tape again and get back to this.

War, red team did have the bucket of crabs and shellfish. I thought someone ate one, too. I'll check on this also.

I'll be back.

ok---Red tribe has fire and it's in the scene just before tribal council after Tanya talks. John is the one at the fire and it actually looks like he's drying out his socks of all things and not cooking.

For the Red tribe's bucket of shellfish, it's Jan who says--we've got crabs and clams for dinner tonight--the first night there. They had a bucket overflowing with live shellfish.

Thanks Tess. I'm guessing the Purples still don't have food by the end of the first show. No wonder they're tearing each other's throats out. But maybe their food is more difficult to find and they are still swinging from vines looking for Mangoes. I would certainly found food before hacking awway at bamboo all day trying to build a hotel.
Do they have their floor built yet? Maybe they can hide under it when the monsoon washes them away. Har har har

LOL Catfat! I'm still wondering why they spent so much time on a floor when they had yet to create a roof. I'm already disliking that tribe for their idiot ways.

And why are they chopping away at those huge bamboo poles to make them all the same size? Couldn't they, if the have to, leave the ends of their floor poles just sticking out? Why not make a roof first? A loose pole roof with palm fronds covering it could have been made in a few hours, for god's sake, and would have lasted for years if if was lashed down properly, depending upon the winds, of course. At least they would have shelter from the rain and sun. UGH!! I have no patience with this kind of dumbness.
I wonder if they are going to put in doors, a sink, wardrobes, a video wall.

Catfat don't forget Rob is planning to put in a skateboard park out back -- all much more important than a roof and, oh yeah, food.

I think the show didn't focus on the fire issue because it was covered so thoroughly in the previous four Survivors. Which is a good thing, I think, not to be too repetitive. But I do wish they had TOLD us when each team achieved fire (30 seconds could cover it.)

Yeah, the floor thing was WAY dumb. When the monsoons hit, though, they can use it as a raft and float away...

Shelter, food and water should all be priorities!

Why not have a group scout out food and another group work on shelter?

Twiggy, I think that was exactly what ShiAnn was trying to say. Divide up and have teams work on the essentials...and no one would listen to her.

Why did they get so out of sort in the beginning? Too many Bosses and not enough labors? It seemed everyone had their own agenda as to what needed to be done first.

Aren't they the "young, hip, fit, attractive beautiful-people" tribe?
