AuntieMike: You are our treasure! I could not have said it better.... The Best does not need a medal or a million (but I wish he could get both).. Rupert is awesome.

For me, the best part of last night's show was the promo for the next episode... Rupert fishing... the grins, the thank you kiss from Tijuana...I bet Rupert's the kind of guy that already thinks he has won... in soooo many other ways.. that the money would just be a sweet bonus.

You know, when Survivor 7 ends... Rupert will go on to bigger and better things... his kind of goodness needs to be spread around.

Am I the only one who was shocked to see Morgan running around with a spear? This hapless bunch has a net, AND fishhooks (before they lost them), AND a spear, and yet they have not managed to catch one single fish? I'll bet they have been standing on the shore trying to throw the spear at fish rather than going into the water after them!

Neetka!!! hahahahahaha I was "SHOCKED" to see they had a spear... but maybe they were not bought but made from bamboo???? I didn't get a good look at them... and it seemed there were two spears... but again... I had company and there was so much going on, I just caught a glimpse.

Maybe Rupert fashioned the spears???? I can't imagine why they have not caught any fish up till Rupert shows up.

They are just staying true to form, Neetka. Since when has anything they have done (or not done) made sense? I couldn't agree with you more, they certainly have not taken advantages of the tools they do have! It's an amazing study of human nature and instinct, isn't it?

They definately had the spear before Rupert came Lorry, Ryan O was carrying it around when he and Andrew were searching for fish (in the jungle).

OMG Neetka, you're right... I do remember that... thanks for reminding me. Hmmmm then it's true, they are rather "dumb as dirt"??? hehehehe Gosh what have they been doing besides "nothing"????

What has probably happened is that Osten took the spear the first time into the water but he was screaming so loudly at the idea that a crawly thing might nip at his toes, he scared all the fish away. Then Andrew and Ryan decide that there are no fish on their side of the island, somehow fish have the intuition to stay away from the inhabited part of the island, and they go through the jungle to find the fishier side of the island. When they get there, they discover there are lots of waves on that side of the island and everyone knows that fish dont like waves so..............all the fish swam over to the Drake island and they are all sitting on a rock with their spear waiting for them to come back.

Thank god, Rupert came in a boat because the fish seem to like Rupert and followed him to the Morgan island.

ROFL at "the fishier side" of the island!!

I saw Burton on the Early Show and he mentioned that Jon had referred to a one on one alliance with Shawn, the alliance of four and the alliance of five.. so that he figures Jon had decided to switch to the group who would vote against Burton and let Shawn in on that at the last minute. Not sure if that explains everything.

He also mentioned that Jon was entertaining for him but that he also liked that Jon drew attention (negative type) away from him (Burton) and said that Jon was always walking on eggshells because he annoyed everyone.

He claimed that it was editing that made it look like he simply went to Rupert, suggested throwing the challenge and Rupert reacting as shown, but says that it was a two hour convo and that "everyone" had talked about throwing competition at one time or another.

As for Darrah's voice.. I'm sure she is understood perfectly at home.

Christa is interesting. My first impressions, fueled by the pre-show hype, but also from listening to her, were negative, but, as time goes on, if I listen to the content of what she says, I tend to agree with her and I like that she sees the good qualities of Rupert and seems to enjoy the fact that he isn't a cookie-cutter "guy".

lol! Maris, I think you figured it out!

Christa's voice is a little odd, but I like unusual people. She seems really intelligent and I also like the fact of no fake boobs. She is tall and thin, but she is attractive and unusual. Her braids are good. And who wouldn't snuggle up to Rupert if given half a chance?
Mmmm-mmm, I love a man in a kilt (or a reasonable facsimile thereof).
As for Rubert and the Morgans, he will do what he can to teach and help them, thus insuring more allies and a better position for himself. I think Andrew will treat Rupert with great respect because Andrew knows that without Rupert the Morgans are goners, and Andrew will try and form an alliance with him after merge, knowing how popular Rupert is. Andrew is very shrewd and I think he knows where his best chances lie.

Maybe this has been said elsewhere before, but Christa could be Joan Cusack's sister.

Maris, I like the way you think. (If I'm not mistaken, Andrew and Ryan were heading for what appeared to be a 'protected' cove on their map. But –in typical Morgan fashion– they missed it.)

To support Seamonkey: During a camera-monologue, last evening, Michelle was also discussing 'throwing' the competition in order to get rid of Christa.

I get this feeling, Catfat, that Christa is 'full-of-ginger.' If she is 'crossed,' she will be a force to contend with...

Catfat

I agree, Enigma, about Christa being 'full of ginger', She is currently my favourite woman player. Formerly, I liked Sandra, but now that we see more of Chirsta, I am liking her. Least favourite woman--toss-up between Tiajuana and Darrah, no reason, except I just don't want to be on their tribe.

Good God people! Rupert must have thought the Morgans were a bunch of idiots when he got there. Two spears, no fish? Duh.

(Spygirl: I love Joan and John Cusack!! Christa would be in good company)

On fav part of this show was the "Blair Witch Project" fishing expedition at Morgan isle. The filmage really made it seem spooky and showed their inepitude.

You are right, Pascalle. I hope Rup doesn't get double-crossed when helps the Morgans survive.

Pascalle: Andrew explained to Rupert that the reason for no-fish was that they had not received their fishing license yet...

Favourite part of tonight's show: The look in Jon's eyes when he realized that Trish was going, "Oh, crap, I am so toast".

I LOVED Sandra's response about the person leaving being surprised...roflmbo I was freaking about it being Rupert.. but the surprise was on the viewers and Trish. Wonder why Trish didn't wait until the merge? Questions that make you go hmmmmm...lol

My favorite part was seeing Andrew tear up after winning immunity. He tried damn hard. He was so upset that Jon said they were handed that one competition. I felt so bad for him. He has really grown on me and I like how he and Tijuana seemed to have bonded. The guy even offered Jon shampoo- I know it may be a tactic but it was still a sweet gesture.

Ryan with the pelican was cute. He was trying to tell Osten to go to hell in the nicest way possible. I would have threatened bodily harm if Osten touched a feather on Pete!

tonights episode was sooo great... my two favorites moments were:

andrew tearing up after the immunity challenge -- one that jon can't say drake handed to morgan and one that required a whole lot of strength and willpower. andrew rocked on that challenge. as did everyone, really.


seeing jon's face when trish was voted off. i didn't particulary dislike trish until tonight, but anything that means jon might be the next to go makes me one happy camper.

pretty obvious who i am and am not a fan of, huh? im loving andrew, ryan, and rupert. and jon... well, who actually likes that kid?

can't wait for next week's twist!

I rather enjoyed the look on Trish's face when Jeff pulled her name out of the bucket. What a great moment. The next would be the look on Jon's face. LOL. He made his bed, and has just realized that he has to sleep in it.

Should be an interesting first few minutes of the next episode on "Drake Island". :)

While I too loved the above mentioned moments on last nights show. I have one more to add: When Jon was throwing his tantrum about Shawn not working, the little stick boy was stomping around looking very much like a two year old. I was waiting for him to drop onto the ground and kick his skinny little legs and feet.

Duncan

Friday, October 24, 2003 - 06:18 am EditMoveDeleteIP
LOL Still.....I was thinking the same thing. The unfortunate part of it all is that when you break it all down, Jon was right. Sean was spending more energy whining than anything else.

The funny part is watching Jon get into it with someone as he he stomping away from them. LOL. He did the same thing with Sandra <?> a couple of weeks ago. He seems to be a pro at getting up in someone's face from across the beach.

ROFL... I'm sitting here making myself laugh.. I keep imagining Jon in his wrestling tights... outside the ring, yelling threats to the guy in the ring... the one he is afraid to get into the ring with... hahahaha

Jon in tights must be a sight to behold...hahaha

I really don't dislike him... he's such good tv.. but he's such a loon... hahahaha

Jon in tights would be frightening, ROFLMAO! He would look like the Great American Hero's prepubescent brother!
