Nobody will believe him when he tells Brandon "dude, Grandma died"


I'm not sure who came first hosting games, you or Tribe, but you are both nefarious! - CTGirl

I'd rather see Randy's dead dog.

I doubt we'll see Russell, though I also doubt he would be as pregnant as Amber was last season. Brandon entered the game with a strategy to hide the family connection, so Uncle Troll is probably not one of his designated loved ones for the family visit.

Randy's dead dog would be more articulate.

RussHell making an appearance at the family visit may depend on one thing: whether Brandon has successfully revealed his lineage to the entire field. If the secret is completely out, MB is nowhere near above making a few fast phone calls and recruiting the Special Guest Star for one more toxic dump on the beach. But if Benji remains the only person in the know, I don't believe production would sabotage Brandon with an open reveal -- not when they have so many other, more subtle ways of doing it.

Normally, my guess for a Brandon visit would be his wife -- but with two very young children in the family, she may not be able to arrange a few days of supervision for the trip. (Plus there's a 'Dude, when the hell did you get married?' factor here, although I doubt Brandon sees it.) We'll probably get a parent or sibling.

Of course, ideally, Brandon's out long before this issue threatens to come up.

KObrien_fan points out in the Ep3 Vidcap thread a pic of Brandon from the opening credits in this weeks water challenge without his shirt on... So, it looks like the secret is revealed this week....

The issue of his lust for Mikayla might also affect whether or not his wife would agree to go. She may be filing papers as we speak.

I would suspect that if Russell has the chance to go, that he will not turn it down, regardless of how it might affect Brandon's game. When has he ever thought of anyone but himself? And if he goes he will find a hidden idol, (sorry Belle, that prediction pains me too), stick it in his shorts (doubly sorry), and will claim to be the real winner this season.

The game is over filming-wise, and Brandon is still with his wife and kids.

I not seeing Brandon as all that likely to last long enough for the family visit.

He's an idiot, he's annoying, and he's having a breakdown. So long, sucka.

Not if God is merciful.

In all seriousness, I think creepy-eyed Brendon will be out long before merge, much less family visit.

Let me guess... Ozzy decides to keep his visiting loved one around and Unkaruss blows up because it is not supposed to be that way, all his fans will be disappointed.

yep, and he is Ruxxell's brother and looks meaner but with LESS charm.

I bet we do see Russell. They already did Ghost of Russell Past being visualized by Coach, and they could use that trick again.
