"Did Jeff help Jenna during F4 IC?" |
The past is past, et cetera, but I was wondering if anyone else noticed this. Last night, I re-watched the tape of that debacle known as the S6 finale.
During the F4 IC (the maze), Matt was about to get his 3rd necklace. Jenna, trying to get her 3rd necklace, was right near him but was clearly lost, she kept turning and walking into a corner. It appeared she had no idea that they were both near the necklace station. When Matt got the 3rd, Jeff not only said, "Matthew gets his third!" He added "And Jenna is right next to him!" (I may have the exact wording wrong, but he definitely pointed out that Jenna was right near Matt, who, of course had just picked up his necklace.) Having been practically directed by Jeff, Jenna then realized where she must be and headed straight for the pole holding the necklaces. Why not just hand her the frigging necklace and get it over with. From the way she was stumbling, it could easily have taken her another full minute to realize where she was. This cost Matt what may have been a significant lead. During that time Matt, who was already booking *ss, would probably have gotten his 4th and moved on back to the finish point. As it was, he was only a few seconds behind her at the end. It seemed throughout the show that Jeff has helped Jenna; the most memorable example was allowing the whiny b!tch to get her letter after she cried and whined to get her way. At the "reunion" he let her and the other ho off easy when asking them about the strip-for-peanut butter incident. He never once pointed out the obvious, that they didn't HAVE to take their clothes off, all they had to do was jump off. Just letting off some residual steam.

1. "RE: Did Jeff help Jenna during F4 IC?" |
I agree Jeff gave Jenna a free pass more than once. The most incomprehensible thing to me was that when Jenna gave immunity to Heidi -- the only time anyone has ever done this in six Survivors -- Jeff let it go by with nary a single question or remark. He later said in an interview that he would have to ask Jenna why she did that; it would have been "unfair to Jenna" to ask at the TC. He just had to make everyone vote with no chance to regroup, which Probst "supposed was what Jenna wanted." (my quotes may not be exact, but that was the essence) If anyone else had done that, Probst surely would have said at least something to the effect of, "so you must feel confident that you are safe tonight." But no. Nothing. Not a word. It really infuriated me at the time.

Very interesting point about the F4 IC. Now this sucked even more. Jeff seems to like Jenna all along. I guess the "help" during the F4 IC just came naturally, as Jenna was the only female and underdog at that point. Still, that does not justify it.

Well if you want to believe that the powers want a male, female, male, female, etc winner situation, then hell, I can believe this.

11. "RE: Did Jeff help Jenna during F4 IC?" |
When Matt picked up his first necklace, Jeff Probst said something like, "but did he get the right one?" That made me think there was a necklace on the post for each sign, and Matt was supposed to take the one for the sign whose arrow he had followed from the guidepost. We saw Jenna do this: she read the water sign on a guidepost, followed the arrow, and picked up the water necklace, and even said to herself that she had "water", so she'd know not to look for that sign again. But if, say, Rob had read the water sign at the same guidepost and followed the arrow, the water necklace would have been gone because Jenna took it. But if Rob needed a fire necklace and there was one there, could he not just take it without going back to another guidepost first? It just didn't make sense to me what they were supposed to do.

Brownroach, there're 4 water necklaces at the water-necklace post, 4 fire necklaces at the fire-necklace post, etc. There're 16 necklaces in total so that each player can have a fire, water, earth and air necklace.

So then, was this another attempt to help Jenna? Make Matt think he got the wrong one so he would go back and check, slowing him down and giving Jenna time to catch up?

THis is a little off topic but since it is the same challenge, it just seemed so fitting that Matt, when trying to feel a necklace asked if it was earth

Jeff meant that Jenna was right behind him and anyway Matt could not find his forth neclace and was no where near it so Jenna won fair and square.
and if this was considered a cheat lets not forget when Colby cheated in a reward challenge beating Amber the non cheater
