"New Varner Report"

1. "RE: New Varner Report" |
It's not a repeat. Good find, money. Here are the "spoilerish" (maybe?) parts: As the first episode approaches, I thought I'd tease you a bit. You all seem to like that. Over the course of the next 13 weeks or so, here's a little bit of what you'll see that you probably didn't know.
STAR TREATMENT I've seen a clip of the opening of the show. This time, don't look for intense dramatic suffering as the contestant battle their way to their camps. Stars don't suffer, right? There has to be perks. Look for a simple, yet very dramatically edited military escort to their new home. This time, they are escorted, not stranded. Look for a red carpet beginning to the worst suffering of their lives. WELCOME TO THE GHETTO The Survivors were asked to jump off a boat about five feet from their island. No taxing journey to the new home for this group. They arrive, however, in ghetto fashion--ONE machete and ONE pot per tribe. No food. No water. No fire. No tools. No rope. Nothing! And it stayed this way, for some of them, for more than three days.
I QUIT! ME TOO! Inside sources tell me that Jenna Morasca leaves the game fairly early due to her mother's death. This has been widely reported. However these same sources NOW tell me that Jenna is not the only one. There is a second contestant that reaches the boiling point, throws up their hands and angrily leaves the game. The situation that produces this exit will get strong emotional reactions from everyone watching. I'm told it changes the game, therefore something that can't hit the cutting room floor. They have to show it. I'm slobbering waiting for this episode! You should be too. You'll never believe who leaves and what causes them to leave. NEVER! I could tell you, but I'd never spoil it for you!
FIRE IN THE HOLE Rumor has it "The King" gets busted smuggling matches. How, you ask? The answer: in a container shoved up his bum. We'll have to wait and see if this is true. But I'm told his tribe works diligently for a long time to get a fire started, only to fail. While no one is looking, King Richard squats by the soon-to-be fire spot and "POOF," flames in an instant! This launches two contestants into a hunt for matches, which they eventually find! How it plays out is a mystery, but from what I hear, it's quite a dramatic moment.
FASHION STATEMENT After arriving at the holding area, just prior to beginning, production went into the contestants' rooms and hand-selected what each Survivor would wear in the game based on what they brought along. All their belongings were taken away. Some people were allowed long sleeves and long pants. Others were only given tank tops and shorts to wear. Imagine the tension this caused on the frequently COLD, COLD, COLD nights! It's tough to sleep freezing next to someone who's warm.
HOME SWEET HOME Once again contestant loved ones make the journey to the Survivor set to participate in a challenge. After arriving, one popular Survivor's loved one was promptly sent home, I hear. Tough way to learn your favorite Survivor was voted off the night before, huh? The loved ones were apparently grilled about their ability to run, swim and dive prior to arriving. I'm anticipating family members fighting for their loved ones' immunity, in a very physical challenge. But this info is sketchy, so I could be wrong.
PRETTY BOY POUT I've been told to look for a major pissy diva temper tantrum thrown by Africa winner Ethan Zohn. I'm told he will be very embarrassed at his behavior when America sees it.
CAMERA SHY? I doubt it. Sources tell me "The Colbster" played the role of loner, avoiding the cameras and keeping to himself. I'm told, like others out there, his heart just wasn't in it. Was it that, or a concerted effort to avoid another layer of "reality stigma." Whatever the case, for those contestants that were rejected and would have killed for a spot, casting people who's heart wasn't into it sucks.
THE NEW SURVIVOR WEAPON History! This game was not meant to be played by people who know each other, apparently. All of these contestants (from their games or from their out-of-game relationships) have a ton of baggage and history with one another. This dirt becomes very public as the contestants use it in order to disarm their threats. Look for the Robfather to continue his strategy of "creating loyalty through fear." I'm told his strategy was to rummage through potential contestant closets, find their skeletons and store them in his back pocket, ready for war. Though not the only one, he crossed the ethical line the most.
Sources inform me that in this game of Survivor, the contestants will be divided between those who truly want the money and play intelligently to get it, and an opposing camp of Survivors playing to the camera, with the money secondary. It's agenda vs. strategy in this group. And something tells me, strategy wins out! For some strange reason, it seems the buzz I'm hearing points to all-star Survivors NOT looking forward to the airing of this show. Many of them want it aired and over. That tells me this is good. ------------------------------ Someone ELSE quits??!! I am thinking: Richard or Susan. Or is this the Ethan hissy fit?

LAST EDITED ON 01-27-04 AT 04:18 PM (EST)Sometimes, misreading is funnier than reading. Case in point, I thought I read: "While no one is looking, King Richard squats by the soon-to-be fire spot and 'POOF,' flames in an instant! This launches two contestants into a hunt for matches, which they eventually find! How it plays out is a mystery, but from what I hear, it's quite a dramatic movement." Beyond that, more suggestion that the "spear" isn't a spear or if it is, it didn't arrive with them on day 1. "They arrive, however, in ghetto fashion--ONE machete and ONE pot per tribe. No food. No water. No fire. No tools. No rope. Nothing! And it stayed this way, for some of them, for more than three days." --- UDG

Wasn't there a posting to the effect that that Kathy and Lex confronted Rich about some issue?

22. "Fire in the hole!" |
So, Rich smuggles matches up his poop shoot? This is really bad. I mean really gross and bad for all involved. I don't want to even imagine how he was able to do it, especially since he is naked so often. Anyway, not only is it a certain one-way ticket out of the game, but it could potentially damage the tribe as well, sending him (Richard) home without a challenge loss or a tribal council, which brings me to a second point.One of the things that has been bothering me has been the 18 contestants 39 days thing. Since there's been no real evidence that supports the scenario of multiple TC boots, I've been wondering how they would work one boot per threee days and still come out with only two players on day 39. If Varner can be trusted, and I'm not sure that he can, we may have one DQ, one quit, and one "symbolic" tribal council with Jenna leaving the game. I can see how Jenna's exit might work to fit in with a regular tribal council, but I can also see how two players would leave the game in addition to the scheduled TC's. So, in at least two episodes, we may very well see two players exit, but one will be a sanctioned boot via tribal council, and the others are Richard's DQ and Ethan's hissy fit/quit. Does this make sense? Otherwise, there would have to be 15 episodes, and I haven't seen any evidence which suggests that there are.

13. "RE: another 21 day quote too" |
LAST EDITED ON 01-27-04 AT 05:14 PM (EST)I'm starting to agree with all of you that are suggesting Colby is the second quitter. Especially with this comment about Colby from JV: Whatever the case, for those contestants that were rejected and would have killed for a spot, casting people who's heart wasn't into it sucks. So many people said the same thing in reference to Osten.

This would also fit into the close friendships end as the result of this show. JP and Colby are friends outside of this show - some say JP tried to talke Colby out of it. If Colby quit - I can see it ending any friendship with JP

I don't remember where I read this, but the "writing on the wall" scenario might apply to Jenna M. as well. Supposedly when she left, the first two boots had been former winners, and with her mother sick (perhaps Jenna is told her mother has taken a turn for the worse), she decides there's no point in continuing and decides she should leave.

After Jon's "dead Granny" (if not prior) they probably put in place a bad news from home policy; if Jenna's family informed the production of her mother's condition they certainly would have passed the news on to Jenna.

Not only might they have done that, but if there is somebody back home with a known medical condition, they might also check with the family to see how the person is doing.

i always thought the sharing would be an excellent strategy, but i actually read an interview that quoted JP as saying that one of the very few rules in survivor is that winners are forbidden to split their prize money.
