I definitely couldn't help but laugh when he asked her why she hadn't changed her hairstyle, and she replied with something along the lines of, "Why change perfection?"

And I nearly died when Russell was saying that she was probably hiding food in her mullett. LOL

I don't think I was too surprised to see Shambo go. However, I kind of wanted to have Brett leave to see how the Foa Foas would duke it out (and yes, I basically consider Shambo a Foa Foa). On the other hand, I kind of like Brett and think that it was smart of him to lay low for most of the game. On the other hand (yes, I have three hands), if he's in the finals, I think he'll have a VERY good chance of winning the whole thing, and it might not make the whole thing too exciting.

Let's face it... Brett hasn't done much the entire game.

See, I think it would be kindof exciting if Brett or Natalie were to win, because they've certainly edited the whole season to highlight Russell. Which is what makes me think that he doesn't make it to the finale or win. If he wins, I will be bored. I find it really frustrating that Jaison, Natalie, Mick and everyone else in this game just sits back and lets Russell make all the calls. Why would you let someone else decide your fate in this game? If you're Natalie or Jaison, and you believe that Russell will really take you to the end, what makes you think that you stand a chance of winning next to him? The jury doesn't know about everything he's been saying behind their backs - if he's there in the finale, I think he could win...except for maybe if Brett is there, since most of the Jury is Galu and even the Foa Foas I think could appreciate his strategy so far. As for Mick, I think he's nuts for not pairing up with Natalie, Brett and Shambo to kick off Russell this week. And I think Russell was foolish to kick off Shambo because I don't think anyone would vote for her to win a million. bucks.

Well, Mick didn't really have the chance to kick off Russell this week - Russell had the hidden immunity idol. I think the game will be different now that the HII can't come into play, and we might see a more sincere attempt to get rid of Russell.

I agree 100%.

I am completely for Natalie winning. She seemed to actually try to strategize, she helped around camp, she has definitely surprised me, and she no longer comes off as the "clueless southern girl."

Brett hasn't been highlighted... at all. I just don't see what he's done to earn the win besides sit back and let everyone else make the decisions. I wouldn't vote for him simply because he's been riding everyone else's coattails the entire game, and he hasn't sweated one bit.

I don't think that Jaison has been "sitting back" whatsoever. I think he's just as smart as Russell, if not, smarter. The only mistake he made was telling members of the other team how much money Russell makes, because obviously that would get back to him. I think Russell would have tried to vote Jaison out after that, IF he didn't need him at that point.

Mick confuses me. Sometimes he seems cool and collected, and other times he seems frantic and panicked. I'm not sure of the role he's played in all of the strategy and scheming.

First, I don't know that they think they'll win against Russell. If I could have worked with Russell and moved up this far in the game, then I definitely would have... but I wouldn't let it go much further than this.

Secondly, voting for Russell this week would have been stupid knowing that he could easily have played the immunity idol. There would have been too much scrambling to figure out a Plan B if Russell used it. Voting out Shambo was the easy way out. I would have done the same thing.

And as I've said before, I don't see Russell as much of a threat. His strategy really hasn't been THAT amazing. And it's not as though he's winning every immunity challenge. I think that if the tables were turned, and Foa Foa had gone into the merge with twice as many people as Galu, Russell probably would have been gone a long time ago. I think everyone else used him, just as much as he used them in order to get as far as they have.

I was definitely confused by this. However, Russell might have thrown himself under the bus by voting for someone else. Shambo was one of those "oh well, she's gone" kind of votes, so there is generally still harmony among the group. He might have seen it as an easier way to manipulate people going into the final 5.
