Please keep the precognitive powers of Carnac The Magnificent on this thread until the West Coast gets to see how truly awesome those powers are, which should be about half an hour before the Tonight Show comes on in the East.

'Sunrise, sunset, and Paris Hilton saying something stupid.'
'Name three things more predictable than Ravu losing.'

'The Chicago Cubs. The Arizona Cardinals. The Academy Awards.'
'What are three operations which provide less luxury than Moto's camp?'

'Divine intervention.'
'Give an alternate name for a tribal switch.'

'Susan Lucci. The Boston Red Sox. George Mason.'
'Who are a few of the 6.2 billion people with no interest in this season?'

'Wreeta. Ratu. Ms. Slippage.'
'How many ways can you find to mess up tonight's vote?'

And --

'Thailand.'
'Where would the bodies never be found?'

Hey-o!

So you haven't seen the previews of next week's challenge?

Y'know the worst thing about finishing the archives? Now you're stuck waiting with the rest of us.

Not for the episode during March Madness, no, not yet...

I read the archives like I read the first Harry Potter book, just about all of it in a period of one night...

"Pre-credits."

Night Eleven at Ravu. Yau knows where the idol probably is. Earl has a pretty good idea. There's now an informal agreement in place to join forces and find it, with Earl trying to lead the others out of camp so Yau can dig. Earl thinks it's in his best interests for Yau to trust him, and he's not worried about Yau having the idol.

New fact: the ground gets hard to dig through by hand about six inches down. Tools may be required to unearth this thing. Now let's see, what's the hardest thing in camp?

Rocky's head. Okay, second hardest...

Hard? Maybe. Sharp? Rocky? Not at all. They either need to break his head open to get an edge or find something else.

The Hidden Idol Alliance of Earl and Yauman has been activated!

Earl takes everyone but Yau away to "grab" - Ravu speak for finding food. Yau gets to dig, using the machete.

HA!

Earl: "They're like 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' over there and we're "Good Times"

I think I love him.

They get a picture book of luxuries. Pick 2 things. Win & get them all, lose & lose it all.

Ravu is looking at stuff they need, like fishing gear. Moto is looking at toiletries.

Battle Sumo. Get your opponent off the mat in to the mud.

Ravu for fishing gear & cooking pot
Moto for coffee and toiletries (including t.p.)

Moto is wiping up. Yao-Man manages to take down Stacy. First point for Ravu, after going 6-0. Score now at 6-1, and Moto takes out Rita in one push. They get luxury and send Earl to EI. Moto gets a 3rd set of fishing gear, coffee, another cooking pot, and toiletries.

*yawn*

Ya know, that was just sad to watch - and I mean literally.

I hope the PTBs do something to even things up one of these days or this is going to get depressing & hard to watch.

Earl evacuates Ravu from camp: mass quest for food. While the island is scoured (and Earl & Anthony) enjoy the view from the highest point), Yau digs at the cave's threshold, getting exactly nowhere due to having only the machete to work with and losing half his time to complaining about the lack of progress in confessional.

Reward: the catalogs are back. Pick two items per tribe, winner gets all four, and we're playing a Judd event: sumo pillow shoves off the platform and into the mud. Now let's see -- who's still got strength? Right. Yau takes Stacey in a rare male vs. female matchup (and effectively apologizes), but that's Ravu's only win in the race to seven points. Moto wins and gets all four items -- including their third set of fishing gear. Rocky's only reward for pounding his chest and calling out James? Mud dinner. To go with his mud lunch and air breakfast. And Cassandra clobbers Rita. Twice. Earl to ExI, and the rich get richer.

Oh what fun.

LAST EDITED ON 03-08-07 AT 08:21 PM (EST)

Moto's on the verge of orgasm for the coffee.

Dremz and Cassandra realize there the odd ones out and are being treated as such. Dre can't figure out the procedure to make coffee and only after Alex requests instructinos do they get a clue. Stacy and Lisi are acting like a two-women power trip for Moto.

Earl gets clue #5 and since it's another rehash of clues 1-3, he goes "Duh!"

Ravu's girls: Rita and Michelle are girl-talking and it's driving Rocky crazy(ier).

ETA: Alex has a small epihany: if they keep the tribes the same, and Moto runs the table in IC's, there's a small chance that Dre and Cassandra will bolt to the Remaining Ravu's and make the vote 5-5 (if the merge is at 10, that is...) Also, keep the two-woman power trip close, keep the outsiders as possible replacements...

Posted by tamarama on 03-08-07 at 08:26 PM
>>Alex has a small epihany<<

But it appears to be too little too late - naive he may be, but Dreamz is not stupid - he saw right through the lame pep talk and announces that he & Cassandra will bolt to Ravu asap.

"Second segment."
Posted by Estee on 03-08-07 at 08:23 PM
Michelle & Rita are having some girl talk. They do this every day. Girl talk makes Rocky crazy. Girl talk makes Rocky want to die. Keep it up, girls. Keep it up...

Over at Moto, Stacey & Lisi are acting like be-yotches who have an interest in the majority alliance and feel they can treat everyone outside it like dirt -- these being Dreamz and Cassandra. Alex, who can see it coming, paitently tries to explain the problem involved to Lisi: if they merge at ten after winning every Immunity the rest of the way, it'll be seven-three -- until Dre and Cass flip and create the tie. Lisi doesn't see a problem. Lisi thinks a tie is majority. Alex goes insane trying to get this across to Stacy and Boo, finally gets somewhere with Edgardo, and makes Moto reaffirm a committment to seven strong in front of the whole tribe.

Dre's plan? Flip to Ravu at the merge and take Cassandra with him.

"RE: Second segment."
Posted by Brownroach on 03-09-07 at 10:28 AM
My favorite exchange (paraphrased):

Alex (to Lisi): If we win all the immunity challenges and merge at ten, and we have seven and they have three, Dreamz and Cassandra will flip to the other side.

Lisi: Yeah? Cool!

Alex: No, it's NOT cool...

Bwahahahaha. Lisi is such a moron.

It's not Storytime, it's Concentration!
"Third segment."
Posted by Estee on 03-08-07 at 08:35 PM
Immunity challenge: Concentration with flip boards. Thirteen matching pairs, four dummies, and fourteen idiots. Moto wins 7-6.

Yes, it was exactly that boring. Lisi took a faceplant in rushing onto the field and lost a turn when the rest of Moto made an 'Oh, no!' sound. That was the highlight. Moto wins, Ravu loses, and the world tilts on its axis, but it would have done that anyway. Such excitement. So many thrills. So little girl talk left after this vote.

Funny that as Rocky is saying the group talks over each other too much...Rita is continuously talking over him.

She's a waste.

"Fourth segment."
Posted by Estee on 03-08-07 at 08:47 PM
Is it Rita? Is it Anthony? Rita thinks she has a group that wants it to be Anthony. Rocky really, really wants it to be Rita. Anthony can go next, but Rita's driving him more insane.

Tribal Council. Rocky takes the blame for losing the challenge. Yau hopes his brains starts working again soon. Rita brings up girl talk as a means of distraction. Rocky wants to die, but only after Rita goes first. There is absolutely nothing which can be done to make this interesting, so we go to the vote, and Rita goes out 5-2. Jeff tells Ravu that the challenge showed they still have the will to win, and they need to hang onto that.

Be nice if they had the ability to win, but that's probably asking a lot right now.

By the way -- Alex? Concerning all your talk about the perils of treating people as less than equal and the game being a means of near-instant karma? Are you feeling the irony yet?

"Next week."
Posted by Estee on 03-08-07 at 08:49 PM
Anybody care?

On 3/21, buffs will be dropped. Tribes will change. Rocky and Dreamz will start a lifelong bond of deep heterosexual love. And someone will get stuck with Ravu's camp.

Wake me up when it's over.

-- in the Bar. Bring coffee. Lots and lots of coffee. As long as it isn't Moto-coffee. We know where that's been. Near Lisi.
