Alaginger | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 05:29 pm     There are a few vidcaps up in the Pics thread now for Episode 3. |
Hippyt | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 05:37 pm     Hmmmmm,ok,which is the IC,the standing on the platform,or the boats? The boats wouldn't seem to leave the challenge in the hands of two people. Of course,like I trust CBS blurbs anymore????? Where was the near-drowning,the photo finish??? Rubbish,I say,rubbish! |
Alaginger | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 07:24 pm     Viewing the video promo over at CBS.com this evening, you can definitely see Jon and Trish sitting out one of the challenges and cheering their team on!!! |
Alaginger | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 05:53 am     I happened to tape Episode 2 this week because I had a Homeowner's Meeting I "had" to attend, so last night I ran the tape back and the group hug picture of Drake that I have in the screencaps thread is actually from the RC of Episode 2. I got that picture off another website that was showing vidcaps supposedly from Ep 3, so it is a misdirection.........take that into consideration. |
Alaginger | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 06:18 am     Went over to TDT this morning and I really like the way it has summarized the RC, so brought it over here for your enjoyment. Just remember, this is just their opinion........ Reward Challenge - Episode 3 "This one appears to be fairly straightforward: sink the other tribe's boat, as the promos say. Not immediately obvious that this is the RC, but there's no sign of Pokey the Idol, and Drake is shown using the boat from the challenge to go out and hunt for treasure (presumably having gotten another piece of the clue). Since they appear to be the tribe that finds the treasure (a brief shot of the chest being opened is seen in the web promo), it seems likely that Drake wins this one. Which would fit with Michelle doing a triumphant backflip off the dock after the challenge, and the dejected-seeming Morgan tribe's shot, apparently hiking back to camp (not to mention Osten all but falling out of his boat). Don't worry Morgan, we're sure this builds character." |
Whoami | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 09:19 pm     Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious..... Has anyone discussed that spoiler I read somewhere here earlier...that the third boot was a "male, mercy-type vote?" I would think that would point towards Osten. Maybe he'll even purposly sabatoge/throw the challenge to prove to Lord Andrew that he was serious about wanting to leave. His facial expression when Ryan was booted could have been something along the line of "okkaaayyy....they didn't take me seriously." Seemed more bemused than victorious. |
Theowl | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 09:29 pm     Who, how do you say that word?  |
Not1worry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 06:08 am     True Dork Times has changed their minds again. Now they are thinking maybe Morgan does win the IC. I have a feeling the challenge will be set up to favor them somehow anyway. So the big question is - who will Drake vote off? It would probably be too much to hope that Jon will go. |
Alaginger | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 06:32 am     I have posted pictures in the pic thread showing what Not1worry refers to above. A male leaving the Drake tribe. We have heard one of the gals call Shawn a "wuss" and we have heard Jon called an "a**hole". Haven't heard anybody yet putting Rupert down, so I really can't see him leaving this episode. Geez ... I hope I'm right because he makes for good viewing entertainment. |
Alaginger | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 11:32 am     La de da da dallllllllllll Transcript: Voiceover (football announcer): Thursday on CBS, like true pirates, one team will have to sink the other's boat for a map to a treasure. See why critics call Survivor: Pearl Islands one of TV's "most entertaining and addictive pleasures." Don't miss an all-new Survivor Thursday. Guess this answers once and for all which is the RC and what the reward is........ |
Reader234 | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 06:42 am     Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum... I'm begininng to believe that Drake will move one member outta dar!!! aye aye, I saw the pics of the boats, dont know how that can favor one tribe, and Morgan certainly is having bonding problems... Did ya read the post in general discussions on Lillian?? What a fun read!! Why cant Survivor re run every episodes just for me???!! |
Jan | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 07:08 am     OWl..isn't it that Mary Poppins thing Super cali fragil istic ex pi ali do cious |
Tabbyking | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 09:19 am     i'm not sure a challenge could be set up to 'favor' one tribe over another. supposedly, all the challenges are decided way in advance of the tribes arrival and the order is not changed, etc. even if one is struggling (okay, not struggling very hard!)... |
Alaginger | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 09:44 am     I agree Tabbyking.......and they make the bigger team sit people out to be equal numbers competing. |
Reader234 | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 11:43 am     "ah you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around...that's what its all about"! After spending even MORE time surfin, I see that the next boot isnt spoiled after all!! It had been spoiled next boot was a male... but now they are backing off, like I may actually have to watch without knowin!! |
Seamonkey | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 01:22 pm     Last night, watching programs on CBS, there was one commercial that had Rupert saying something to the effect that "it wasn't our day". It wasn't at all clear, but it sounded like Drake lost something, or didn't get something or..?? |
Not1worry | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 02:02 pm     Bismark, North Dakota..... Burgaw, North Carolina.... Okay, I never could figure how a male would go this week anyhow, so I'm glad that spoiler has been backed off. I really think Sandra is most vulnerable on Drake. I also think Drake is going to lose immunity. They still need Rupert's strength for little longer. Even though Jon is obnoxious, I think the other "boys" will keep him around. |
Hippyt | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 05:01 pm     Yo,hoho,and a bottle of rum..... I'm flip-flopping around like a fish on the deck!I think you may be right Not. Seems the guys would stick together and get rid of Sandra. But,some of them don't like Jon either! And,then Shawn gets on Rupert's nerves,maybe he's a goner. Arrrrghhhh,me maties! |
Halfunit | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 05:12 pm     <...just stopping by to tell you all that I love your first liners...> |
Not1worry | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 05:49 pm     Tabby, I wish I could remember some instances where it seemed like challenges "favored" one team or another. So many challenges have all blurred together. But I do recall thinking "That was rigged!" Some of those challenges like catching fish - one teams boat could be in a better spot than another. Stuff that is buried, how are we to know they are buried an equal distance? I also think it's possible that they have several challenges ready to go in different areas and could rearrange the order if necessary. I'm not saying there's a big conspiracy and there's all kinds of nefarious doings going on...just that it's possible. I do love a good conspiracy, though. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 06:25 pm     oh, i agree completely that some seem rigged or 'favored toward one team or the other', but jeff probst swore on an interview last year that everything is predetermined and cannot be changed. of course, they 'predetermine' the teams, too, and production may be laughing the whole time, knowing the teams aren't 'even' from the start! then they run to vegas to play the odds....lol |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 06:45 pm     You are my sunshine, my only sunshine... Okay, signs do point to Drake losing the IC. I just can't see any other explanation for those dejected looking folks in the vidcaps. Do you think they would get rid of Sandra with the way she speaks Spanish and did so good for them in the village? I bet the fight is a big red herring and both she and Jon are safe. How about Trish? Or Michelle? Where did the spoiler come from that had it being a man who goes next? I hate to say it, but I'm leaning towards Rupert right now. I never did see the first episode (thank you, Hurricane Isabel), but it seems like they gave Rupert quite a story line with the spear and that could have ticked off more people than was shown. I know he is enormously popular with the viewers, but if I imagine myself on his tribe, he would have made me very uncomfortable with that. I don't care how "stupid" Shawn was for losing it. Everyone makes mistakes and seeing that display would make me uncomfortable around Rupert and feel like I better not mess up. I think, too, he got a lot of air time and that sometimes precedes a boot. |
Surreal_Badger | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 08:09 pm     you make me happy, when skies are grey. . . Hermione69, if we go by the airtime = boot logic, then i think both trish and michelle are safe. and if we're sticking to 3rd boot = male (and sticking to Drake males at that), then burton too is safe. and jon too is safe if we use the fight-as-misdirection logic. that leaves shawn and rupert as the only possibilities. voting to boot rupert = burton, shawn, jon, michelle, trish (?) voting to boot shawn = christa, sandra, rupert, trish (?) does the episode title (United we stand, divided we. . .) allude to a tie at TC?! ok, ok. so this is all utter speculation, but i have a feeling that there's gonna be a lot of sad viewers Thursday nite when ol' Rupert walks the plank. |
Alaginger | Wednesday, October 01, 2003 - 03:58 am     You'll Never Know Dear, How Much I Love You.... First of all I have to thank Hermione for starting this song, because this is what my Grandmother used to sing to me all the time when I was little while she ran a brush through my hair. Love the Memories!!! I've been leaning very heavily toward Rupert myself, and just last night I was thinking....what if the TC is a tie, or where the "Divided" falls into place......so Surreal, I think you may have something there. Seems funny that JP didn't allude to any "Ties" during his interviews. Most tribes have tried to stay away from the "Dreaded Purple Rock" ever since Pappy got the shaft. |
Meli456 | Wednesday, October 01, 2003 - 09:05 am     Please don't take my sunshine away... I don't have any spoilers, I just wanted to finish the song My nana used to sing that song to me too and now I sing it to my own two little boys. Sometimes it makes me teary, too, it really is a lovely simple little song. When there is a tie, they do a one question tie breaker between the two, right? Edited to add: Oh yeah, I'm leaning towards Rupert going tonight as well. He comes across as a little scary around the camp sometimes. |
