What really makes me laugh is the fact that Crystal and Susie are still left. Seriously? Look at the jury compared to who's still in the game. Marcus, Charlie, Randy and Corinne must be so mad.

It's kind of funny.

Right now I hate Kenny the worst, so I hope he manages to shoot himself in the foot. I can't believe the rest of the tribe hasn't seen through him.

This way, there would be 4 votes for Corinne, she would use the idol, no votes would count for her, and Matty would go home. But obviously it backfired, because Corinne never had a real idol to play.

Not quite. Neither Kenny nor Crystal completely trusted Corinne (who certainly has never given them any reason to) or Bob. They wanted to "flush out" the idol. If Corrine played it and it was a real one, Matty was gone. But by Crystal voting for Corinne, if she didn't play it knowing it was fake, then she was gone.

Kenny apparently missed the part where Corinne said to him that the best part of the plan of the four of them banding together was that they wouldn't have to play the idol. He also forgot that if he and Crystal voted for Matty and Corinne's idol turned out to be real and she played it, Matty was gone and the idol was flushed out. If she didn't play it, they know she's lying and a threat is still gone.

I have to say I loved tribal council, seeing Corinne get voted out by those that she's been convinced she can contantly fool. There's an interesting interview with Corinne at RNO.

I think she's right, though, that it was bad move on Kenny's part. He and Bob need to be the next to go (if you're anyone still left except the two of them.) If Bob gets to final 3 he wins -- look at who is on the jury. That's why Crystal made a reasonable choice last night, even though she was wrong in saying Corinne wasn't a threat to her. Again, look who's on the jury. (Although looking who's on the jury, I don't think Crystal stands a chance of winning.) Matty and Susie should both be looking to take Crystal and Sugar to final 3. Maybe that's why no one has flushed Sugar's idol out; if Marcus, Charlie and Randy's interviews at RNO are to be believed, Sugar has gotten a really good edit. They and Corinne all describe her as very annoying. Maybe everyone is thinking she'd be good to take to final 3 because she's not liked?

ASTalumna06 · #**139** 12-05-2008, 01:34 PM

I'm kind of surprised that Corinne said (in that interview) that Sugar had a fair edit. If that's the truth, she hasn't come off bad at all, as Corinne claimed. Whatever. Personally, I think Corinne is just.. a mean person.

But anyway... if Bob and Kenny are taken out next, and Matty makes it to the final three, I think he's won the game. No one has had a problem with Matty the entire time, and with the people who would be left, he'd be the one who deserves it.

srmom · #**140** 12-05-2008, 01:41 PM

Thanks for the link to the interviews. It is really interesting to hear the voted out people's take on who's left and what really happened.

I did get from Bob's reaction last night that he was really upset about the way the tribal counsel vote out had gone with Randy. Then to read Randy's interview that Sugar was on the ground laughing at him - NO CLASS! He may have been a jerk, but out and out ridicule like that reminds me of "mean girl" behavior in junior high.

Bob seems like such a nice guy, and after reading the interviews I have more respect for him for maintaining his integrity and real self among the jackals.

Oh, and I dislike Crystal intensely!! She is such a b*tch, and HORRIBLE at any physical tasks! And after reading that she took BOTH blankets that they won in the reward challenge - putting one on the ground underneath her and using the other to cover herself while the rest of the tribe froze- unbelievable!!! She is extremely selfish and self centered - YUCK!!!

Eaxctly why I think Matty, at least, should be trying to get Bob and Kenny out.

And exactly why it would be good to take her to the final 3.

True!

In watching the previews this week, they say that next Sunday is the finale. How are they going to get the numbers down to 3 before Sunday? There are still a bunch of people left on the show. Is there going to be a mass vote off?

I thought I briefly saw something about this the other day. Is there an episode Thursday, and the finale Sunday? They still have 6 people left. Someone clue us in, as I haven't watched this show in years and I forget how things work

srmom · #**144** 12-08-2008, 04:01 PM

Yes, a regular episode on Thurs. and finale Sunday. With 6 people left, there has to be some major twist to get the numbers down, but there hasn't been any kind of leak through the previews.

I'm stymied!!

Exactly.

I think I saw part of last season's finale, and if I had to guess, they would get rid of one more person on Thursday. Then on Sunday, there'd be some challenges or something and they would eliminate two more before the final vote.

But again, I'm just guessing..

a.e.B.O.T. · #**146** 12-09-2008, 01:23 AM

One person will get the boot on thursday... THEN sunday will have a regular episode where the fifth person will get the boot, leaving four... a competition follows for immunity, the fourth person is then eliminated, leaving final three, who go in front of the jury. The show then goes back to the states to announce the winner, and the reunion begins after a short commercial break. Sunday is a 3 hour ordeal.

srmom · #**147** 12-09-2008, 10:32 AM

Thanks for the explanation. I wish they could have spread it out over two weeks. It seems like there are getting to be fewer and fewer shows on tv that I look forward to.

Bring on the new season in January!! American Idol is back!!!

KDAngel · #**148** 12-12-2008, 02:27 AM

I want Sugar to win. If not her, then Bob b/c he's pretty awesome.

I agree with this. For all intensive purposes, it really looks like Sugar is breaking down emotionally quite a bit, but I really think she's laying it on thick and playing a good game. And the "Take this cursed thing away" was icing on the cake last night.

I thought Crystal had lost her mind when she started yelling at Matty. First she was yelling about how they had brought him along in the alliance, then she was yelling about how he was never in the alliance, and I couldn't keep up with WTF she was talking about.

SOOOOOOOOO excited for Sunday!! Unless Kenny wins immunity, I think he's next. Kenny's still gunning for Matty, and Matty's going to be gunning for Kenny, since he's voted for him twice in a row. Sugar, Susie and Bob would probably be smarter for going with Kenny and taking out Matty (assuming Bob wins immunity again, otherwise, he would be an obvious choice - who wants to sit next to him in front of the Jury?), but I don't think they'll go that way.

I think we're set for a Final 3 (not 2), but the way things have been going, who knows?

LOL... I agree with this, only reversed.

I would really like to see Bob win this game. And if not him, I'm all for Sugar taking home the bucks.

Like AF, I'm excited about Sunday's episode. Should be good!
