I doubt Jonas would be inclined to vote for him, given the way Tarzan treated him and the "hard feelings" comment. I don't think Mike or Jay felt any love towards him -- I remember Jay talking about how Tarzan drove him crazy, and Tarzan helped vote Jay out. Lief the Silent, who knows, but Tarzan voted for him, too. And I think Troy would vote for the person who he thinks played the game the best, and there's no way that's Tarzan.

I think by the time the men are all voted out and they watch the women fight amongst themselves for several tribal councils, they'll be pleased to vote for the one "token" man that they know was kept around because he was perceived to be a weak opponent by the women. I think they'd vote for him not because they like him, but because they hate what the women did.

I guess it bothers me because the "quiz" already made it clear where people stood and what they were thinking. I can understand each portion of the challenge being implemented separately, but to combine them seemed a bit too much.

I can see that.

I laughed, though, when Kim said she was sorry she won the challenge. I had thought before they got started that this is one challenge no one should want to win. She knew she was going to get to pick at least one person to go with her if she won. If it were me, the problems that could result from being in that position would be all the incentive I would need to throw the challenge. Besides, winning shows what a good sense you have of the pulse of the tribe and how everyone is thinking. Why advertise that? Incentive two.

CBS said last night the ARace finale is next Sunday (May 6). Does that mean the Survivor: One World finale is Mother's Day (May 13th), thereby indicating a double-elimination on Survivor this Wednesday?

Oh, Kat. That exit interview was one of the more pitiful things I've seen in a while. Part of me feels bad for her; most of me is happy to see a TC go the way I was hoping. Finally! How fitting that she had just said she was hoping for a blind side because they're fun and exciting. How fun/exciting was it for ya, Kat?

Despite the women's claim that they saw Kat as a physical threat after her performance in the immunity challenge, I'm pretty sure that was just lip service. They were mad at her for not taking Christina and Tarzan on the reward, and the fact that she performed well was just fuel to the fire.

One more episode before the big finale!

Agreed on everything here. I hope sees herself on TV and realizes how ridiculous she is, but i doubt it.

You're channeling me; these were my thoughts exactly.

The look on her face as she realized what was happening was priceless -- as was her talk about how she was running the game. Ditto Alicia. Delusional, both of them.

She's only 22! She can't be expected to understand life and stuff.

I actually chuckled (and then felt bad for chuckling, so I covered my mouth and chuckled silently) when she realized what was going on. Do you think she recognized someone's handwriting? I only ask because when Jeff read the third vote, Kat got that wounded look and then glared over at Kim.

And you're right - Alicia is just as delusional as Kat was. Only Alicia doesn't have naivete as an excuse. She's just plain old delusional.

And now, for a hint of a spoiler...
There's a website that lists all the players in One World. It's a fairly common site (although there's probably not a whole lot of fan traffic), and it generally doesn't reveal spoilers. However, the list is, so far, in order of departure from the show. So far, the order has been accurate. I'm wondering if it was intentionally posted this way. And if so, how did the list-maker know the order? And if it's a preview of what's to come, I'm a bit surprised by what next week has in store for us. I'll share the link if anyone's interested, but I know how it is with spoilers. I can't even bring myself to post it despite the spoiler alert/font.

Ok, that's all.

Yes, it's rather easy to find that info. But I avoid it like crazy, hard tough it is sometimes.

Yes. This. I felt a bit of a need to wash my eyes out after witnessing that.

This, too. I went to the site for a reason I can't remember, way back toward the beginning of the season. I side-eyed the list, but tried not to think too much about it. I had one person I used as my test case, and I went back to check the list, and it was correct about that person. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I felt a bit of a need to wash my eyes out after seeing that, too.

Does honeychile ever watch Survivor? I'm curious what she thinks of Chelsea and Kim, the two Southern Honeys messing with everyone on the island.

Editing usually shows, so I'm going with Kim and Chelsea in final 3. Kim has led Chelsea by the nose, having Chelsea run interferences ect without Kim seeming to be the one mixing-it-up. And smug (as mentioned by me before) Kim kisses everyone so sweetly socially they all leave liking her AND YET KNOWING she's the one who messed with them.

Parvati was also a Southern Honey (from Florida/Georgia) who won Survivor (and also came in second place).

Ok, I kinda feel cheated by Kat's jury speech. Not what I was expecting at all. I wanted her to lay into them, not make me tear up. Just when you think you have someone figured out...

[SWTXBelle]

Not what I was expecting . . . but I'm far more impressed by Kat than I ever was during the game.
