Tyrone (?): What did they say?
Jimmy: They said get your a$$ out of here.

Foreshadowing a Jimmy Johnson departure?

The second clue shows digging instead of the Ex - cave-ate clue, and shows feet instead of the yard clue, and I think a compass for the direction, plus the male is standing by the tree.

They will know there was a first clue all right.

Perfect example of "Tina's Theory", revealing several alliances on the La Flor tribe:

Sash, Chase and Jud...core of the guys alliance...notice that Ben is now off by himself as a possible swing vote.

Sash and NaOnka, trying to establish the "Minority Alliance" with Brenda.

Alina and Kelly on the end together, now vulnerable after losing Shannon at TC and losing Jud to the guys alliance. They are the most vulnerable if La Flor goes back to TC, with Ben and Jud now swing votes looking for a new allaince.

NaOnka, Kelly S. and Brenda, with Chase directly behind Brenda and Sash directly behind NaOnka. This is the same group of five we see sitting on the beach together...

(Kelly, NaOnka, Chase, Brenda and Sash) Led by Brenda, they are now in control of La Flor.

Just wanted to point out that the man on the far right in this picture is most likely Benry, imo.

Here is another picture of Benry in his bathing suit, note the white waist band and the color of the suit...

And, here is Sash in his bathing suit...

Sash is taller than Chase, Benry is a bit shorter....

But, I do agree with all of the logic...

Thanks FP and KB... I thought it was Benry too. Benry is trying to find a new alliance but is on the outskirts...also Kelly Shinn is on the outside...she's just a number for them

It would be a more interesting shot if Sash was there too...and where he would be sitting.

As to edit of Nay and KS I think Nay gets the evil edit and KS gets the Zoe edit.

Agree about Nay and KS -- Zoe's a great comparison for KS!

Re Benry: I think he's tighter with Chase and Brenda than the editing is letting on. There's a very interesting Insider Clip that shows that Benry (like Chase) was caught between the 2 alliances. In addition to the "Strong 6" alliance, Chase, Benry and Brenda have been in a 3-way alliance all along. Benry tells Chase he's "with him 100%." It seemed like Benry switched his vote because of Shannon's theatrics at TC, but after watching the Insider Clip, I think he was planning to stick with Chase all along. Not sure why they're keeping Benry so hidden these 1st two episodes -- maybe he's just a third wheel and not a central characters, but he sure seems like the smartest/sanest Youngin' out there based on the Insider Clips.

The thing that's most interesting to me is whether Sash and Chase are allied or not, or whether it was just out of mutual convenience that they came together this last episode. My hunch is that Sash wants to be in control, especially of the so-called "Minority" alliance, and won't like that Chase and Brenda are so tight. That's why it's intriguing that it's Benry and not Sash in that beach photo.

emydi and FloPo: Yeah it is Ben, I just got new glasses, you guys are right...but it is nice to see some good ol' vidcap analysis to confirm it.

Krautboy, terrific analysis of the IC arrival shot!

ok it was Sash when they were talking about the 5 KShinn in her trusted group but then even though they were talking about Sash at the end of the segment they put this picture up which had Benry instead of Sash as 5th...I think they didn't realize it was Benry and just used the shot.

Thanks to Survivor Fever for the new promo vidcaps!

(Didn't bring over the same monkey/JJ caps)

Announcer: Wednesday...

NaOnka : Jud, he's such an airhead.

Announcer: ...she's the trash talking castaway.

NaOnka : I'm not going to be nice to you because you have one leg. I'll push you so hard that leg will fly off.

Announcer: And Coach Jimmy Johnson has led the older Survivors to victory.

Yve : He just is inspiring.

Announcer: Can he rally his troops again...

Jimmy:

Marty : I'm worried about Jimmy Johnson.

Announcer: ...or will he face a mutiny?

Jimmy Tarantino : If these people (knew?) what they were doing I would be the leader of the tribe.

Marty: I've got the strategy but it will shake the tribe to its core.

Jimmy Johnson: It's the toughest thing I've ever gone through.

NaOnka = meanest, most negative edit ever???

So it looks like some sort of barrel-rolling challenge. They are scattered all over -- seems to be no rhyme or reason.

Lots of long faces at Espada, so looks like they lose. (Plus La Flor has the MoP this week.) The "Mutiny" shot of Marty/JT plus Marty's comment about "I've got the strategy but it will shake the tribe to its core" sure seem to tie in with the CBS clue of a bold move/bad behavior.

Lots of colored flags and mats. Interesting, Jimmy J and Jane and Holly are close to what seems to be a finish line. Different distances for different players, different start points to reach the same finish line? Got to be more to it than that. But Kelly B. seems in relatively good position compared to most of La Flor.

I agree, there has to be more to it than this. Maybe it's like an obstacle course, and they have to wait until their entire tribe gets all the barrels to one designated spot before they can move on to the next phase.(Puzzle? Stacking or filling the barrels?)

It appears that the Older Tribe has to go in the direction of Jimmy J and Holly. Meanwhile, the Younger Tribe appears to have to go in a slightly different direction where Kelly B. is. Maybe part of the entertainment value is that they crash and get in each others' way?

Is that a person's blue buff in the foreground/lower left corner? (Under SurvivorFever.net)? Or something else? I can't quite identify everyone out there, but could it be that Marty or Yve who have reached the finish line point and are waiting for the rest? (I think I see Jill's red hair to the left of NaOnka -- she is sandwiched in between 2 La Flors.)

There are 2 barrels (one of each color) scattered all over, it looks like (there are 2 groups behind the la flor tribe while they wait on the mat for the challenge to begin). I assume they use the MOP and are ahead, as it looks like Chase is helping someone roll their barrel. Also, there is a matching yellow barrel on the "finish line" on the right side when you look at the video...(compares to the blue one in lower left corner with some fabric on it...)

Thanks Rachel for clarifying that those are barrels with fabric on them (vs. people with buffs) in the lower left corner/finish line!

See below -- TDT just posted a few new challenge shots and you can see Benry throwing some fabric....so not sure if that's where the fabric comes from or not?

Jimmy Johnson ... gone up in smoke? Fitting imagery.

LOL Pepe!

Here are a couple new challenge vidcaps that TDT posted:

I'm surprised they'd have Benry throwing again after last week's challenge.

>>> I'm surprised they'd have Benry throwing again after last week's challenge.

We don't know if they all throw, they might. They all probably push barrels.
Ben was wearing the MOP and is not in this shot, but even if they keep it, it would get in the way during the challenge, no?

There are press photos out ... I'm off to bed so apologies for not posting them. Saw them at MESS. Imagine they are posted at SF.

ETA, here is one that shows they all take off running when the challenge starts, so I don't think any one person is throwing, or at least they are all doing the barrels even though we don't see them all in the caps we have.

Curious. On the right, at the Espada "finish line" ...

is a barrel that appears to be full of yellow (not blue) cloth. What is that about? Assuming it has something to do with the challenge, what do they do with the other tribe's colors?

Nothing, I think. You are seeing the opposite view from other picture above where they are rolling barrels. There's a blue one on their side of the "finish line".

You may be right, the yellow barrel would be just out of camera range in the top shot which has a blue cloth barrel (I think) in the left corner.
