I didn't see it, but in one of these threads someone posted a link to where you can watch the clip of him coming out all naked while Anne Heche was being interviewed.

Found it- Azriel posted it in a Spoiler thread, but I promise it won't spoil anything (except possibly your appetite!) Oh- I can't find that clip anymore, but you can watch his clip down in the deli when he was voted off here.... Survivor Parade of Losers Clips

Yes I watched him on Letterman. Letterman basically had the audience vote himself off the show, (in a jokey manner) so he wouldn't have to interview Hatch, I think. Richard was in Rupert's Deli & Paul Schaefer interviewed him...not too well in my opinion...asking silly questions. Then Letterman shows up in back of the fake window, behind the desk and they cut to commercial.Hatch was on for less than five minutes. Cut to Letterman being an idiot, asking Heche all kinds of inappropriate questions about being a lesbian...funny, he can't bring himself to interview a gay man but he has no problem grilling an 'ex'-lesbian! lol ;) Next thing ya know...here's Richard...starkers as usual and standing behind the window! rofl I was thinking maybe it's not about him being naked tomorrow night or would CBS have even shown that part of the Letterman show if his nakedness is causing a big prob?

Wow, I watched Letterman, and wondered myself if Dave intentionally did not interview Hatch because of a "pending lawsuit" on his network. It seemed like a pretty silly gag to get Dave off the hook. (He hates the whole thing with Survivor losers coming on anyway) Perhaps this means there really is (was) a lawsuit, and there is a gag order not to talk about it.

I've been following this thread with great interest. There are so many well thought out and interesting points of view here. Of course, now we know that Sue is out voluntarily. I have tended to agree with many posters here--that Sue didn't seem particularly troubled at the time and it was being overblown. Now, it seems that this was much harder on her than anyone thought, I doubt we'll ever know all of the story, especially if litigation is involved. One thing that I keep thinking about while reading this thread is the last "Amazing Race". At one point the contestants had to take a train in India (I think). It was a shoving match to get on, and almost all the passengers were men. All of the women in the Race found themselves being pinched and groped. The unluckiest pair was the one team that consisted of two women alone, as they had no male partner to defend them. They were extremely upset, and the camera(man?) just kept filming as they struggled with near panic at their situation--while the foreign men just kept grinning and touching them. I felt the that the Amazing Race producers should NOT have put any of these women into a sexually threatening situation, and that whoever filmed this behaved atrociously in giving them no help. It's not exactly the same situation that Sue was in, but it does bring up the question of whether a reality show should take measures to protect contestants against any type of sexual assault that is clearly illegal in our country.

Sue is one tough broad . . . . . . and an insecure drama queen! It obviously didn't bother her that much when it happened--whatever it was that happened. Then her drama queen genes went into high gear and she saw a way to get all the attention she so craves. A self-induced breakdown! This tantrum was even phonier than a few seasons ago when that women accused the man she was snuggling up with of grinding against her in his sleep. (Sorry I can't remember their names.)

sue has always been strong and outspoken and not very likable, IMO. she basically scoffs at richard when the 'incident' happens. all of a sudden it's a big, big deal. it looks almost as if sue decided she had only a 1/14 or 1/15 chance at a million, while a lawsuit for emotional distress could possibly bring much more. there was no outrage when it happened. just bantering comments by richard and sue during the 2 seconds. it sure seems unlikely she would have a real cause for litigation--going after a gay man for sexual harrassment. actually, i thought she was a lesbian until they mentioned her husband. i think she found an easy way to maybe make some money. even my cat isn't afraid of richard hatch and my cat's afraid of a corn chip.

I'm not going to say Sue isn't a drama queen...but I also watched the section in question a few times (gotta' love TIVO), and it does appear edited....so who knows WHAT was said at the time of the incident or how much was cut out. That being said...I'd really like to know WHEN Sue was snail hunting....if it was after the incident and BEFORE the "breakdown," then I think this is a stunt for money. If it was some other time...I truly have NO idea!

hmmmm I really dont think Sue is that good of an actress to fake this for a potential lawsuit. Her redfaced nonstop crying on the beach (and most of the day) and the 'losing it' outburst at Jeff seemed very genuine, IMHO. I am not sure why she'd be so upset about her husband though.......Sue KNOWS that she'd be home before any episodes would air on TV. The first thing that popped into my mind is that her husband didnt want her to go on ALLSTARS, and her marriage could be in trouble. This event with Rich would have been the straw that broke the camel's back. (Just a theory!) ;-)

If Sue were suing CBS or MB ,why would she be on the CBS morning show with Rchard?

as someone who has been in a couple of similar situations, i feel compelled to defend sue. i didn't react "appropriately" at the time either. i was completely at a loss and my real reaction, like sue's, was extremely delayed. she was in the middle of a tough immunity challenge at the time. she was in even less of a position to process it that i was in my own situations. there is no excuse for what richard did. like some people have pointed out, would people would be more outraged if it happened to amber? i think so. but, people seem to be saying-- it's sue. she's tough. she's a man. she knows richard. she can take it. that's just not fair reasoning. we have no idea what might have gone on in her past to make her react that way. my heart went out to her and i found her breakdown very painful and very real.

I was just wondering did CBS edited out alot of Sue's statement because it wasn't as bad as it looked during the ads because I thought she was going to be telling Jeff off, and all she said I have had it, and I am quitting, they made it sound like it was going to be some blowout but it wasn't

not sure if this is the right place to post this - Sue and Rich are on the early show - just started and so far it sound like Sue and Rich have gotten together and discussed and have come to terms with what happened. Meaning they are now talking again and resolved the issue. Harry (the host) seems to be wanting to make more of it - maybe because for viewers it just happened during the past two weeks. Will have to see how this plays out. Rich seems to be very sympathetic of how Sue was feeling and said here is this big trucker but I learned something and that Sue is a very sensitive woman. His tone was very nice to her and I got the feeling he felt really bad that he caused her to feel the way she did.

Further info on the early show - To answer the big question Sue is not suing anyone. Sue said after the incident she considered it but felt that would put her through more emotional stuff which she didn't need. Also said CBS, etc have been very nice and supportive of her in helping her cope with the situation. Not a quote here but just the gist of what she said.

Thanks Cruzlvr for the review. I hope that this can be put behind them. I do feel for Sue and as some of you mentioned that something must of happened in the past that made this worse in her mind. This certainly has shown us that behind all that tough skin that sue has, she is a human being with feelings like all of us. I feel bad that we had to see and incident like this to see this side of her. The only thing that really bugs me is just before the incident...she stopped and said that "I want this one" and then when Richard came towards her she said "Come here baby". I hope that she can get over this.

I felt the same way as Cruzlvr about Harry Smith trying to fan the flames again on the situation. Sue was very clear when the interview began that she and Richard had mended fences enough to move on, which pretty well killed what Harry had in mind. He kept offering Sue chances to dig it up again, and she kept refusing. Also - why is it that The Early Show can show the clip of the incident without the parental guidance warnings and at 8:10 a.m., when each time it's been shown on the Survivor show, they've had to show the warnings?

I'm with Penpoint & Tabbyking. Richard was as close to Kathy, passing the two women about the same way. I think that is why Kathy was so disgusted with Sue's histrionics. To me it all read as an afterthought....something she was going to try to play up, so she could sue for damages. No chance at winning the big prize, so she was going to bail on the game and sue instead.

i am watching it now and harry is saying things to get them 'started', where it appears they have made their peace already! i have seen the first portion of the 3 of them together; harry has told them to stay put because he will have more questions. man, let sleeping dogs lie, for heaven's sake!!

hermi, i was not saying sue should not have been upset, had it just been richard's idea to pretend to come on to her, but it seemed as if they were 'playing'--with each of them saying things to each other on the boards. i was wondering where it changed for sue. it was obvious they would have to pass very close on the boards and they had been together on the entire first survivor series and i thought sue said something to richard before he did whatever he did to her.

I originally thought when Sue said on the Morning Show that CBS / Survivor / and Mark Burnett had been really great about the matter that she meant in terms of counseling and support. And that may indeed be what she was talking about - but it later crossed my mind that maybe she received some type of a settlement because of it all. And in that case there wouldn't be a lawsuit. I'm sure we'll hear about it if anything like that happened though.
