Maris, ROTFL!! Lance, thanks for the support on my Jerri lookalike! Adven, that Hatch is a no good slime machine. Wish it HAD been Alicia in a standoff with him. Now for our Amber: She has proven to be a valuable commodity--her grace was amazing. Go Amber!!

Defense of Colby: Colby has an EXCELLENT show!!! He was funny in his confessionals. Colby could have gone with Rich, although figured he couldn't trust him. He came up with the plan to oust Rich--and got others on board. That was a big chance. He could have gone with the easy "boot Ethan" plan, however got Lex to go with getting rid of Rich. He and Lex may have something brewing--those two would be tough together. Lex showed class in the way he handled the Rich thing--he didn't make it personal at all, making it about the game only, and paid respects to rich by saying he is a strong player. I have no defense for hit hat though. That thing has to go. Maybe he could give it to Jerri (AND hand her the hat) as a peace offering. (no pun intended, as far as you know) He doesn't control the tribe--that is a mistake. He is trying to influence their approach though- which is part of the game.

I think the women will eventually take Colby down. He may make the merge but that will be it. He's too open with being a leader and that will be his downfall. Ethan's been a whiney wimp this season but he does look good with the beard and mustache. Tom's playing the same character he played on his season and it's still working. I hate to admit it but Rob M kicked ass last night. I loved the way he picked Colby up and tossed him. But he needs to stay in total control if he wants to make F2. Sue is going to blow a gasket next ep and I can't wait to see it.

My summary of what went on and how it looks. Alicia: She played well last night. Nothing outstanding, just hard work and not pissing anyone off. If she keeps up the non-confrontational game playing, she will be a big asset to her tribe, and a big threat once the two merge. Amber: Not much with her last night except for the reward challenge. She did well, working with her team She is not as physically strong as Alicia, although holds her own. This week I will not say "Alicia who". Rob M: An excellent job in the immunity challenge!! He has an issue with selective memory though. He remembers when things go his way and forgets when they don't. He was pretty pleased with himself for taking Colby in the challenge, saying he was tougher because of that one situation. He forgot he lost to Ethan though, so I guess by Rob's own words, Ethan is tougher than Rob. Gee, any chance you think Rob would say that??? I don't think so. He also did a good job in the reward challenge. If Rob M was a s good as he thinks he is, he would have won every Survivor ever played--and he was only in another and this one. Susan: The bright spot for Susan was her idea to fall off during the IC to get Rob up faster. While kind of a chicken shit thing as far as being a competitor, she was looking out for her team. They followed suit, thinking that getting Rob up was a better idea than them actually participating in the challenge. I thought her whining about Tom was out of line--just because she doesn't drink, it doesn't make any who does drink a loser as far as a person. Also, getting drunk doesn't make someone else a drunk. Nor does it make them a stupid human. It made much more sense for her to piss on the raft than to have Tom dump a few drops of whiskey on it? Hmmm She got punished for what Rich did to her--there was not call for that at all--it was way out of line. If you look back to the first season and the game so far, Sue has not had one good thing to say about anyone. Including not saying Tom's ideas were very good for their house. Tom: He is the kind of person I respect for never taking himself seriously, but taking what he does seriously. Getting drunk wasn’t the best political move, however he wasn't the first to do it, and didn’t hurt anyone in the process. His sexual innuendo wasn't politically correct, although he at least did it in front of Alicia, instead of behind her back. I do believe he has enough respect for her that if she had said to knock it off, he would have done so and apologized. Just an opinion there. Tom needs to watch himself, as being a fun loving country boy won't carry him to the end. Ethan: He besting Rob in the challenge and got no credit from Rob for doing so. No surprise there. Ethan didn't make an issue of it either. No surprise there that he has more class than Rob will ever have. He is worried--with good reason. If he doesn't join up with Lex and Colby, he is done. His only other choice is to pull a Colby and convince the women that Colby and Lex are going to cut them loose and their only chance is to get rid of them. At 13 total though, I would be surprised if a merge happens soon--so they need the guys for their strength. Lex is very intelligent too, and can contribute to challenges of any type. Ethan is sweating bullets because he's the last winner left. Jenna L: The only thing they really showed about Jenna last night was telling her new tribe that she decided every boot done. That is exactly what Rob M has said. Between these two, there is enough delusions of grandeur to make me wonder if they found a stash of PCP, or some other mind altering drug. If she was as good at the game as she thinks she is, she would have won the first one she played in, and already won this one even though it isn't over. Jerri: Jerri is a lot more emotional (or showing more emotion) this time around. She's going for the nice person approach, and being separated from Rupert may well allow that to come through more--unless the Colby thing clouds her way of playing the game. She did blame Colby for what happened to her in Australia. The only thing she can blame Colby for is not accepting her offers to get it on. For the game related stuff, she has only herself to blame. Rupert: Rupert shows what's in his heart. He is different from the others in that respect. He has a lot to offer his new tribe--I look forward to seeing if they accept him. I can see him and Tom connecting at least as people/friends. I can see Rupert being very frustrated at the Rob M antics to be a puppet master. Rupert is more likely to see him as a pocket pool master. Colby: see my post in defense of him. GO COLBY!! Kathy: I think Kathy is playing a good game. I think she is right to think that Lex and Colby should have come to her asking about their idea to oust Richard, instead of basically saying that is the plan. I also understand why they didn't--you don't know who you can trust, and by going to everyone to talk about it, you have to trust everyone. Kathy is playing a smart game, and holding her own in challenges. She tries to make a connection with people as well. She is playing a well rounded game. Lex: He is playing a good game as well. He is as much of a threat to take any challenge as anyone out there. I enjoyed the hug he and Ethan shared. It was a moment in the game when it wasn't about the game. I like signs of respect in a game. He isn't as much of a force as he was in the Africa game--although he may be hanging back a bit so the target isn't as big. I can see him keeping Ethan near by, to make it more likely he stays around, since people will eye Ethan for booting. I will watch the Colby/Lex interaction too. As a group of two, they could take every individual challenge. Just for War--Lex sux rox!! Shii Ann: For me, she is the hardest to read. It seems like she is playing the game at all times--mostly by watching. She is one of the more intelligent players out there, although it seems like she hasn't gotten many chances to show it--or has held back to not show it as her strength. I think her choice for making an alliance will play a big factor soon. f there is a mental challenge, they should make sure she is included. With the current tribes, her and Lex on the same team will take just about any mental challenge that comes up. I can see her gravitating toward Kathy, who thinks things through.

Herm, excellent idea on preemptive answers to the bonus questions! Mocha, I agree that Rob did well against Colby. Wrestling moves are great for a situation like that. I give the biggest kudos to Kathy. He approach to sitting down when she faced Rob was pure genius. If she had reached for him before he sat down, I think she could have taken him. LOL about Tom. I don't think he could play another way--he will always be Tom no matter what. I think the same about Sue. She will always show her being herself.

Maris, I see you're going for the "most insightful" points this week. Luckily, to answer your question, I do. As Agent M suggests, Colby has begun to take a leading role in his tribe. This grabs the viewing audience - at least, Lance and I - but I think it will make him a target down the road. Hermi, those are good answers. All wrong, of course, but I admire your desire to jump the gun. 1 bonus point to Team Rob M. Question (2 points): What color sweater was Kathy wearing at tribal council? Be as specific as possible.

Pink is an excellent answer, Hermi. Unfortunately, it's incorrect. Still, a good answer. Wargod, you're dead on. 2 points for Team Lex. Let's try another: Question (3 points): What term did Jeff use to describe the division of the losing tribe (Rupert, Jenna, Jerri, Ethan) into the two remaining tribes after the reward challenge?
