Twiggyish | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:37 pm     Challenge and Morgan is reading. They need to pick their strongest and smallest people. Andrew saying to Osten you represent all of us. Rupert has been picked from the DRake team. Burton and Trish as sitting out the challenge. It's a rope holding their teammates over the water. Slowly the other teammates are letting go of their ropes. The big guys are still holding the back. Osten on his back holding with his feet. Rupert on his back, too. Darrah and Michelle are the ones out in the water. Jeff saying what are the odds of Darrah or Michellle quitting?? Jeff saying guys have to be on their feet. Osten having trouble hanging on. rupert showing signs of struggle. Michelle shifting her weight. Darrah in a yoga type position. 2 hours they cannot lean on the rope. They cannot wrap the rope. Osten and Rupert are pulling the rope off their hitching posts. Osten dropping Darrah! DRake wins again. (I'm in the suck lounge...I picked Morgan for IM..LOL) |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:40 pm     YEA!!!!! Go Rupert! The big fat guy beat the weight-lifting protein shake drinkin' buff guy in a strength challenge. I knew Rupert had it when it looked like he took a nap. Actually at one point, he was holding the rope with one hand while he gave the other one a rest. Osten never really got it off the post at the end. |
Mystery | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:40 pm     Or the Drake "looter" could scoop up some of those little crabs that seem to infest Morgan's camp and say something like "Wow, I can't believe you have so many of these crabs! They're perfect for...." and then put on a guilty, "I've said too much" expression and hightail it out of there, leaving Morgan to spend many fruitless hours trying to eat or otherwise use those crabs. |
Twiggyish | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:42 pm     I think the crabs are symbolic for their team. The camera pans over the crabs before showing the Morgans. |
Essence | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:45 pm     Day 9...Morgan Andrew...What do we have to do to win? I can't believe you lasted that long. Osten feels bad that he couldn't hold on. Tijuana feels this is disheartning. Andrew, Ryan, Osten, and Tijuana have an alliance. They are talking about Lillian vs Darrah. Andrew feels Lillian contributes more to the camp, but Darrah is stronger. He thinks the person voted off shouldn't feel bad about it. He is talking to Lillian. He says he will let her know which way it's going. Darrah talking to Tijuana about it. Tijuana let her know she may go. Darrah seems fine with it...didn't put up a fight. Andrew wondering if she's earned a spot in the tribe for the next 3 days. |
Essence | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:50 pm     You're one of the losingest tribes ever. Is the Drake tribe a better tribe? Tijuana...no we're just not coming together at the challenges. Ryan feels they're unified. He feels they are gonna get a win. Osten was awesome. Osten feels we're in a slump. Jeff thinks they aren't worried about it. Andrew feels they are strong willed and will be on the winning side. Overall just working together and how are we going to stick together as a team. Darrah doesn't know how to build fires. But she puts out 110% in the challenges. Lillian likes to think she's valuable. Andrew told her she has good work eithics. Ryan ... Darrah... Lillian (hard worker...) Osten... Lillian...Darrah (fragile and know very few skills) Tijuana... Andrew... ? totally based on strategy, see how it works votes...Lil, Dara, Lill, Lill, Lil (Her torch wouldn't go out at first.) |
Twiggyish | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:50 pm     Showing the Morgans heading back. They're bummed. Tijuana saying she didn't want it to be her that goes. They're all talking about Lil and Darrah as one to go. Lil is the most contributor. Darrah is stronger in challenges. Andrew saying the person who is least valuable to the tribe should go. The person who goes has to understand it was the good of the tribe. I like that there aren't liars on these teams. (none that I can see yet) They are all talking about who is stronger. Tijuana told Darrah she could be on the chopping block. Darrah was quiet about it. Tijuana saying to Jeff she thinks they are the better tribe. Ryan saying he agrees they are the better tribe. Jeff asking if they are unified. They are all saying they think they are. Jeff is saying he is stumped that they aren't more discouraged. Lil saying she thinks she's valuable. (sheesh there are no villains on this team) Darrah voting out Lil. Lil is voting out Darrah..saying she is fragile. Jeff is tallying the votes Lil got a vote. Darrah got a vote Lil got a vote. Lil got a vote. Lil is voted out. (Who's going to do the chores???) |
Not1worry | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:50 pm     ACKKKK...what symbolism with the torch!! |
Twiggyish | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:53 pm     What a refreshing show!! No schemers, no liars.. I like this season. Yes, they have alliances, but they are upfront with them. Ok, I take back my post..LOL Lil just said there did seem to be a lot of deceit in the game. |
Crystalfire | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:53 pm     I thought Dara was gone after that "I can't build a fire" comment. Well, let's see how Andrew's strategy works for him. |
Essence | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:55 pm     Next time on Survivor...Winning has a down side. It's starting to get annoying. We really want someone to leave.(Christa) Rupert thinks either Shawn/Burton is ? (I didn't hear what) for wanting to lose. Osten is in trouble in the water. He needs help. Lillian...My biggest regret is that I didn't stay in longer to represent my beautiful state of Ohio. It bothers me that our leader didn't get back to me after I stated my case. There's a lot of decent and I'm not about that. |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:57 pm     Smooth move, Morgan. Get rid of your best swimmer in a game on a frellin' *ISLAND* surrounded by *WATER* when most of your challenges that you've *LOST* have been in the frellin' *WATER*. Drake has to be careful, though. They have to start thinking ahead in choosing who to sit out, making sure they alternate their weak players. And never make Rupert sit out. |
Csnog | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:57 pm     Lil's torch won't go out so she comes back ! |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 05:59 pm     Oh, and watch Drake try to lose on purpose next week...and up winning anyway. |
Sweetpea1994 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:05 pm     I'm sorry, but the Morgan tribe is totally clueless. They have their heads so far up their a***s that they can't see straight. I love how they sit around pointing out everyone's faults, but don't seem to realize that they have had a hand in all the losses as well. Sorry, just had to rant for a minute. |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:05 pm     That reward challenge really showed the problem with Morgan, IMO. Drake seemed to get together and gang up on one of the Morgan boats, capturing it in between the two Drake boats so it couldn't get away. Meanwhile, the other Morgan boat is off...sightseeing or something. And did I mention how stupid I thought it was for Osten to STAND UP in the frellin' boat! |
Maris | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:07 pm     The worst thing any of them could have done is gone to Rupert and told him to throw a competition. How stupid is that? Also why deliberately try to lose an immunity competition, there will be plenty of time later on to get rid of Jon. I wouldnt throw any compeitions in this game. |
Sweetpea1994 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:07 pm     Let's pick off all the "weaker" (insert sarcasm here) players so we can blame all our s***w ups on them. |
Twiggyish | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:07 pm     Drake team spends their time trying to figure out clues..and working together. The Morgans lay around complaining. No wonder they are all crabs..LOL |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:07 pm     I love the crab idea for the next scavenging trip. |
Sweetpea1994 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:08 pm     I agree with Maris, don't throw anything!!! |
Daydreamer | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:10 pm     That was a great episode, but why was Lil surprised about the deceit? Rupert rocks!! |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:11 pm     "Also why deliberately try to lose an immunity competition, there will be plenty of time later on to get rid of Jon." I was going to say the same thing. It's only three days between each challenge, so just *ignore* him for that long. In a week, if they haven't lost an immunity challenge, Morgan will be down to only three people and Drake could actually afford to lose a team member -- they'd still outnumber Morgan two to one at the merge. at this point I wonder if the producers are scrambling for immunity challenges that only require five people. This is the first year I've watched from the beginning. Has any team lost the first three immunity challenges before? |
Azriel | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:12 pm     YAHOO!!!! |
Sweetpea1994 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 06:17 pm     Yes, didn't the tribe the year before last lose a bunch in a row? The year Vecepia won? |
