But man… if they only knew what they were starting, ‘ole Erik would probably still be wearing those black knee highs...
Wow, that was awesome!! I couldn't stand Laura, very glad she's gone. I don't think she was all that great of a player, especially after hearing her comments after she left. She still hopes a Galu member wins?? Um, hello!! There is no Galu. Two of them are gone (one of them SHE voted out!), and two of them just voted her out! She might as well just say "I want Dave or Brett to win." Why do these people not get that it is an individual game at this point? At least John had some brains to not let it go to the rock of fate. Dave is just stupid for wanting that. If John makes it a tie, there is a 1 in 8 chance of him going home. If John votes for Laura, there is zero chance of him going home. Do the math! Same would be true for Dave, but apparently it never occurred to him.
Russell does look like he's in trouble next week but even if everyone did plan to vote him out, I don't think there's any way that he would not find out about it. He would overhear or suspect something and use his idol. And then his one vote would decide who goes. I feel doubtful that he can win but I do think he can make it through next week.
What an exciting episode.
Despite that it looks highly suspicious and in the back of my mind I'm kinda wondering.... I doubt the producers are "helping" Russell find the idols. I don't think they even can do that as I'm fairly certain that there's certain rules and regulations "governing" competitive shows that makes those sort of things impossible to do. That's to say, Survivor's producers can't legally manipulate the game like that.
I liked Laura, because i respect that this injured (slightly torn achilles) 40 year old mother of three was a challenge beast. She was clearly the best social player on her tribe and was the de facto leader of Galu even when Russell S. was there. I thought I was going to dislike this woman because I usually don't like having religious people in Survivor but Laura is badass. She's outspoken and confident to the point of being cocky and hates Russell the creepy midget but the best part she wasn't preachy. How can we not root for her over bully creepy Russell.
One reason I don't see Russell as a creepy bully is because although he does some sneaky stuff to his tribemates, he is always honest with us, the audience. That is refreshing after watching some of these people (Coach is a good example) not only lying and acting crazy toward their tribemates but doing the same in their confessionals. At least Russell is honest and aware that he's being a jerk to people. Laura, on the other hand, was a jerk to people but doesn't think she is, and that's way more annoying to me.
Roger, You got a give credit when credit is due(i hope i said that right.) Challenge win is a challenge win. It shouldn't matter if they separated between women and men. She was playing with torn Achilles crying out load.
Bumped...
Anyone watch the thanksgiving "secrets" episode?
