Have to agree with all of you on this one who think Lex/Kathy made a fatal decision to give in to Rob's blackmail threat. Now there are more of the other team so it will be an easy vote after vote to get rid of them all. B'bye Lex and Kathy and ShiAnn! Although I didn't care much for Jeri before, I really was rooting for her last nite.

Maybe there won't be a merge this season until there are only four people. Tim mentioned this last night when we were watching- he said he doesn't think they will merge and that maybe they will keep doing this evening out thing until it's down to 2-2 on each tribe. That would be pretty interesting, eh?

I am in the minority but the only player that deserves to win is Boston Rob. He is strong, manipulative, crafty, vulnerable and sassy at the appropriate times. Everyone else seems not to be focused on the game. If Rob wins I will not be disappointed. That being said how could Lex (who I thought was very intelligent) make such a fatal mistatake????

I don't understand why the four women (Kathy, Jerri, Shii Ann and Amber) didn't vote Lex off. Why do these women think they need a man around. They're losing all challenges anyway, so why not vote him off?

ITA, Honey. It's like the women are thinking in terms of who they "like" better rather than thinking strategically. Did Jerri approach the women, or did she leave her fate in the hands of Lex? Why is everyone cowtowing to Lex on the one hand, and Boston Rob on the other? The women are in the majority over there!

Really dumb move to exchange a loyal person for a disloyal one (if they really believe Amber will be loyal to THEM, or BR will watch out for them over his own teammates, I have some swamp land in Florida to sell them!). I thought these players were supposed to be all-stars--hard players, smart players. What happened??

My husband thinks Jerri may not have fought very hard to stay because she was tired and wanted to go home. Maybe so. He's taping her Early Show interview for me. I want to see what she says.

I am a total romantic, and I enjoyed the Rob-Amber romance up to a point--that point being me remembering that I DON'T LIKE ROB or AMBER! Hah! In other words, nice try pulling the heartstrings, CBS, but this is Boston Rob we're talking about. He'd stab Amber in the back if it meant advancing in the game.

Hmmmm.... Does Lex, Kathy, et al think that Rob really IS a Godfather? Is that why they were worried about retribution and staying on his good side??

ITA Honey51.
What good is Lex to the tribe, it's not like he is helping them win challenges. Let me guess they are scared of him too.

I have always liked Jeri and never thought she was a big <> as most do..I also liked Nicole on BB..go figure! I root for the <nk>!

Jeri looked beautiful on ES ..she is in a band, they have a website, cant remember the name, something odd

She's in a band? Does she sing? Interesting!

Another point: did it even occur to Lex and the women that by booting Jerry and keeping Amber, they've kept Amber on the jury? A vote for Rob or any member of the other tribe! Duh!?!?

They can't be that stupid something is going on. Kathy has to have some kind of deal with Rob. They do have a prior connection.

Well, Kathy had said that she fit in with that group "like a glove"...but as comfortable as she may have felt with them and them with her, that doesn't override the 20 some days and working together that the true members of that tribe have shared.

Shi-Ann picked rupert, saying that she did so because they were both "alone". What did she mean by that- because her tribe is all Africa Survivors and Rupert was the only Pearl Islands one there?

Kaili - yes, Shi-Ann and Rupert were the only "singles" to play the game. Every other season of Survivor had at least 2 players from that season in the game.

I look forward to hearing Lex speak after he gets voted out because he seems to be playing the dumbest game ever. I WAS glad to see them keep Amber because I adore Rob and want to see them reunited. But I don't understand Lex's game play from weeks ago. I don't understand Kathy's either. Lex is going to be a huge target, maybe that's why the girls want to keep him. He'll carry the target and they can try to get in with the others post merge.

I think we will see a merge. I think they should merge to give the jury a view of what's going on.

My assessment of last night's show is Rob M. is totally falling in love with Ambuh! Man, did she ever tame that shrew. I still think he's a big bully, but she exposed his soft under belly. That's for sure. I like him to be more edgy, but oh well. Ambuh is definitely much more interesting this go round. She made him tear up. Man! Ambuh has him big time.

Kathy's hair looked great after she put some Pantene in there.

Rupert is just as much a bully as Rob M. I can't believe how he put down Tom's little fish. He was no better than Rob a couple of weeks ago. Sorry Rupert lovers, but big ol' Rupe likes to rip on others too. It must make him feel important. I say way to go Tom. Didn't his fish look like Dory from "Finding Nemo".

Lex is probably one of the dumbest players ever in this game. I can't believe that he (not to mention Kathy) kept Ambuh so that Rob wouldn't "release all hell" on them. Who do they think Rob is...Tony Soprano???? I can't believe they got intimidated and felt threatened. Lex should have never axed Colby or Ethan. What a joke his game strategy is! No wonder he lost Africa.

I didn't interpret Rupert as making fun of or getting down on Tom. The way I took it, he was just talking about how Tom went fishing and caught a fish but it happened to be little (aquarium sized). Not like the way Rob was when he went fishing and talked later about Rupert being disposable more or less.

Hey, give Lex a break here It was a tough decision. He's not stupid & clearly realizes the tradeoff that he made. I can definitely see his thinking that if he helped orchestrate Amber's departure, he would've been the first one out FOR SURE post-merge. He's already an easy/big target as the ringleader of the weaker tribe. Getting rid of Amber would have solidified his having NO chance of aligning to save himself after the merge. At least now he has some hope of surviving for a while.

I don't think he's trusting Rob, or that he doesn't realize he saved Rob's tightest ally at the expense of his own... I think he just figured that the alternative was certain death.

Realfan,
Jerri plays the drums in the band.

I think the women are trusting the guys a little too much. I appreciate how Lex forewarns the person about being voted off. I think he is more upfront than BR would be. Interesting how Amber was the only one picked. Almost makes you think that MB set it up that way. How, I don't know. Just a thought. Although, she is proving to be a better player this time around IMO. What the heck is Big Tom still doing there? I guess FUR. I am thinking that there might not be a merge so fast. A new twist just might be on the way. Something that will prove all the "alliances" will go out the window.

also, Rupert said that in a confessional not to another player like Rob did..not that it makes it any better...

Anyone notice how fast Rupert agreed with Shi that Rob would win all the challenges and had to get rid of him...I could see a light go off in Rupert's head..thinking 'oh my strategy of not winning everything right away is working, ppl have forgotten about all my wins in last show'...I think Rupert goes far!

DING DING DING pamy! you got it right on the nose! i'm sure that's exactly what rupert is thinking! he knows he was the biggest threat on pearl islands. so if he looks like a dufus... they'll think he's a dufus. but when it comes to individual immunity time, he's gonna kick butt! also they haven't done that much strength stuff yet. that's where he's gonna kick ASS!

I hate how Lex tells people they are going to be voted off! Ok,it makes good tv. But, how long is it gonna take before someone snaps to the face that he votes all his alliances out?
He's put a giant target on his back.
It occured to me today that they may have kept Amber because she's just a much more pleasant person to be around than Jerri! lol
I like the balance of the men left to the women. They will have good chances of winning challenges. If Ethan and Colby were still there,they'd have much less of a chance in the IC's.

"He's not stupid & clearly realizes the tradeoff that he made. I can definitely see his thinking that if he helped orchestrate Amber's departure, he would've been the first one out FOR SURE post-merge."

If I remember right Rob's last words to Lex were "save her, if you can". Rob was acknowledging that Lex might not be able to change the women's votes. Lex should have let the women vote her out, then tell Rob he was sorry, he tried, but the girls voted the way they want. That would put Lex in a position that he was willing to work with the other team, his teammates weren't, so maybe the new Mogo Mogo should work on the old Mogo Mogo women before Lex. IMO

I had to laugh at the soap opera music playing in the background last night during the Rob/Amber and lonely Rob scenes. What has Amber done to deserve to stay in the game? I was hoping to see her go.
