from the usual location:

"Snake in The Grass"

I have a feeling this might be a Jon-focused episode....

I had nightmares all night long about snakes. I hate them and that was so gross.

I was amazed by the size of that lizard.. the snake was just doing her thing, Surviving.. and was far more appealing that some of the snakes who voted :)

I happen to like snakes, and lizards too.

But, I must say that they had to know that the scene was a bit too detailed and drawn out for the average viewer.

I think there was a bit of symbolism there. The little bitty snake (Jon) eating and swallowing the big ole lizard (Rupert).

Yeah, but when they feature someone with a lot of footage, it usually means they are being axed. HOPE SO!

From my excite home page it shows the title of Ep 11, to air Dec 4th as "Would you be my Brutus today?"

et tu brute

yeah...it could be either title, but the first one was the one that came up first, but I've heard both now...and either could make sense. I wonder if anyone will understand the Brutus title that doesn't know Shakespeare or Roman history...

I don't understand the Brutus thing, can someone explain it.

Seamonkey

Friday, November 28, 2003 - 06:06 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Christa could listen to me and shoot Lill, but no that wouldn't be a friend's betrayal...

Pamy, it is a reference from Shakespeare.. here's a short, sweet definitiion:

et tu, Brutus?

(et TOOH BROOH-tay) A Latin sentence meaning “Even you, Brutus?” from the play Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare. Caesar utters these words as he is being stabbed to death, having recognized his friend Brutus among the assassins. 1
‡ “Et tu, Brute?” is used to express surprise and dismay at the treachery of a supposed friend.

Episode 11
CBS Website Teasers


The great lie continues to affect the decisions of castaways who believed Jon when he swore on his grandmother's grave.

A luxurious strategy session enjoyed spa-style, with food, massages, showers and privacy, is spoiled by one castaway.

Faltering alliances and redrawn allegiances leave no one safe, pushing one castaway to ask another, "You're not gonna betray me, right?"

There's nothing like a guy in silk pajamas proclaiming what a great date he is

Maybe Jon gets drunk again and spoils the luxury reward for the other person with him?

Thanks Sea! You did a great job explaining it!!!

Funny, in another thread with the same spoiler, I thought maybe LILL got drunk again and spilled something, talk wise..

You're welcome, Pamy.. I just did a little search. Anything for you, grrl!

This could be where Lil goes, her questioning Burton if he would vote her off, he saying no come tribal council, its all votes for her. Her thinking in her mind you to Burton.

Oh,eh,oh,ohhhhhohhhhh

I kinda think it may be Sandra casting a vote against Christa.

Starshine40

Maybe Lil turning against Burton, joining with the other girls to vote HIM out!

Pamy

Previews want us to think it is betwen Burton and lil so I say Christa goes this week, which sucks

Preview shown today:

VOICEOVER (while showing Jon): Johnny Fairplay,

JOHN: "I am much more then just a pretty face."

Voiceover: But Johnny doesn't play fair. Will someone finally take him down?

Ok, Jon is safe this week!

I dunno, Pamy, I hear that Lill is a real tigress when she sees a guy in black silk PJs.

ROFLMAO, Seamonkey!

I think HippyT probably hit it with Sandra casting a vote for Christa. As soon as I read Hippy's theory, it made perfect sense!! No other scenario really fits the title the way this one does as all the others have flipflopped all over the place, but Sandra and Christa have stayed tight. I definitely think it will be a girl that is going because they want us to think the girls will get an alliance going. I also think Jon is safe, like Pamy said, because of the "Will someone finally take him down?" More misdirection.

ON "SURVIVOR: PEARL ISLANDS," THURSDAY, DEC. 4

“Would You Be My Brutus Today?" -- Faltering alliances leave everyone vulnerable at tribal council, on SURVIVOR: PEARL ISLANDS, Thursday, Dec. 4 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

As the castaways scramble to keep themselves from being voted off, redrawn alliances push one castaway to ask another, “If I were Caesar, would you be my Brutus today?” A tearful castaway pleads forgiveness from a fellow tribe member. Meantime, the reward challenge offers up a luxurious spa day with food, massages, showers and privacy…only to be spoiled by one castaway.

And, another tribe member is voted out of their tribe.

I bet Jon gets drunk at the spa and ruins it for the other 2.
I think Sandra is the tearful one

Pamy makes sense that Sandra is tearful as she fesses up to Christa about fish-gate. Sandra would probably try to buy Christa's jury vote before she votes Christa out. Too sad

I want Christa to stay! Go Burton, and I mean go away!

It is hard to picture Sandra admitting to spilling the fish or crying. She is tough and playing hard.

*She needs Christa's jury vote.

*She does not want to risk Christa telling other tribe members about it thus being targeted.


Two major reasons to keep this to herself. It is old history now.

She could tell Christa that she will have to vote her out in a strategy decision to keep her jury vote. She is hungry and tired so tears could result.

Lil is the best bet for the tears. Still stinging from Andrews dishonesty she feels it necessary to tell Christa of the vote and beg forgivness.

I am inclined to think the Shakespeare reference is general and applies to everyone in the shifting alliances.

I wouldn't put money on Sandra crying..

Maybe I'm too much of a sucker for the teasers, but I thought the Lill-Burton convo could be the Brutus reference, but.. I've been very wrong before..

Lill will cry/blubber for sure.

For those that are interested in where the title of Episode 11 came from: (This from Yahoo Insider as transcribed by Markopolo)

(SCENES OF BURTON FISHING...SANDRA AND CHRISTA AT CAMP)
Christa (to Sandra): Ya know, I've never talked to Burton like that before.
Sandra: Mmm hmm.
Christa: So I feel like that if he feels he can be comfortable around me, maybe it might help.
Sandra: Who started the conversation over there, you did?
Christa: (nods yes)
Sandra: I want to know everything. (AND YOU'RE ASKING CHRISTA?)
Christa: I was like, let me tell you about Darrah and why you shouldn't take her to the final four. She's the biggest threat here. And regardless, she won immunity. Ya know, like. (GLANCES TO SEE IF BURTON IS STILL FISHING). She may not be the smartest person, but regardless, she is capable of winning. Ya know?
Sandra: (nods).
Sandra (confessional): Without Darrah gone, I can't move another step. Me and Christa, we've been tight since Day 2 or 3. But today I let her have it. I was like you know, if she doesn't show me loyalty, I'm going to have to feed her to the sharks too. (SCARY MUSIC PLAYS AS SANDRA IS FIXING CHRISTA'S HAIR).
Sandra (to Christa): If I were Caesar would you be my Brutus? (CHRISTA LAUGHS). I'm asking you a question. I'm asking you yes or no?
Christa: If what?
Sandra: If I were Caesar today would you be my Brutus?
Sandra (confessional): I wouldn't doubt one bit if Christa turned on me. I wouldn't doubt one bit if anyone here would turn on someone else. She knows that to save my skin, I would sacrifice her. So why not do the same thing in return?
Sandra (to Christa): Eh tu, Brute?
Christa: Sure
Sandra: So yes?
Christa: I don't know who the hell Brutus is.
Sandra (shrugs): Ugh. (laughs).
