1. "RE: Episode 4 title: Now That's a Reward" |
LAST EDITED ON 09-22-04 AT 01:28 PM (EST)Remember this tid-bit from the Vanuatu Daily Post Relevant in bold July 10 - A cute female contestant has been voted off the island. Mele Cascades was closed for a 'private' function to film a survivors challenge 'reward' on Thursday 8th. The winning contestants had a full-on meal supplied to them near the waterfall in which they were swimming with nobody to bother them. The next challenge is being stage today in a pig pen. Presumably contestants have to find something racing around in a dirty smelly pig pen with 'ferocious' wild pigs in order to win a live pig to eat - the last time a pig was killed on Survivors it caused an uproar with animal rights groups. Wonder if they got some film footage of the magnitude 5.7 earthquake that was centred close to Lelepa and Moso, where Survivors are filming on Thursday morning?? According to the ABT ABT calendar this fits. ETA:sigpic

This says a cute female "has been" voted off. Wouldn't that indicate she was voted off in episode three?

7. "RE: Episode 4 title: Now That's a Reward" |
I'm having a hard time reconciling this one with Episode 3's title. Based on the article and "cute girl" spoiler, it makes sense that this episode takes place on July 7, 8, and 9, as it would during a regular "every 3 days" Survivor schedule. However, what does that mean for Ep. 3? What is "double"? "Double Tribal" to me indicates either 2 TC's in a 3-day period, or 2 boots in an episode. Either one of these throws off the calendar, unless "cute" girls go in back-to-back episodes (Mia in Ep. 4 and Julie(?) in Ep. 5). To illustrate better:Regular Schedule E1 - June 28 (Day 1) E1 - June 29 (Day 2) E1 - June 30 (Day 3) First TC, Brook booted E2 - July 1 (Day 4) E2 - July 2 (Day 5) E2 - July 3 (Day 6) Second TC, Dolly booted E3 - July 4 (Day 7) E3 - July 5 (Day 8) E3 - July 6 (Day 9) Third TC, John K.? booted E4 - July 7 (Day 10) E4 - July 8 (Day 11) (Reward per article) E4 - July 9 (Day 12) Fourth TC, "cute girl" Mia booted E5 - July 10 (Day 13) Article appears in paper I have to say, I'm skeptical that news would travel that fast about Mia to make the deadline for the 7/10 paper, but it definitely could about Dolly. However, if the "not every 3 days" twist is revealed in Ep.3, but with single boots in each episode: E1 - June 28-30 (Day 1-3) Brook booted E2 - July 1-3 (Day 4-6) Dolly booted E3 - July 4 or July 4-5 (Day 7 or 7-8) John K. booted E4 - July 5-6 or July 6 (Day 8-9 or 9) Mia booted E5 - July 7-9 (Day 10-12) Reward from article would occur here. This makes more sense for news of Mia's boot reaching the paper, but less sense regarding the RC spoiler, unless the Reward mentioned in the E4 title has less to do with extravagance and more to do with something the Survivors really need. You know what would work, though? This: E1 - June 28-30 (Day 1-3) Brook booted E2 - July 1-3 (Day 4-6) Dolly booted E3 - July 4-6 (Day 7-9) 2 TCs in 3 days AND in the episode--John K. and Mia booted E4 - July 7-9 (Day 10-12) Reward occurs on July 8 per article & Mia's boot announced from 3 days prior. After tonight's episode we'll have a better sense of all this, though. Fester

9. "RE: Episode 4 title: Now That's a Reward" |
Snewser says that Ep 3 is "sneaky", and I agree -- what does "Double Tribal, Double Trouble" mean, if not two TC's and two boots? Watch for some reference to a "shocking development that takes the castaways off-guard" in tonight's preview. I tend to think the cute girl must have been booted before July 9th, just because of the way the item is written. It's dated July 10th. Would it start with an event that happened yesterday (July 9th), go back one more day to July 8th, and then talk about what is happening today (July 10th)? It would make more sense that the events are talked about chronologically: the cute girl was booted some time before the 8th, then the Reward happened on the 8th, now they are setting up for a pigpen challenge on the 10th.

If it happens the way Fester states above with Dolly booted tonight, then John and Mia booted in episode three, that means they would have had three challenges in a row for immunity. So they might be saying "About time for a reward", "Finally a reward", "Now that's a reward" or so forth.

Cancel what I said above I guess. There may still be a award challenge in episode three if there are two challenges. However immunity is going to work in episode three it does show it happening in one challenge for both teams.

Scarlett --We don't know that a "young" male will win immunity. The only conclusions I come to from the vidcaps are that John P and Brady *won't* win, from their long faces post-challenge. Anyone else could pull out the win (though I wouldn't bet on Rory or Travis, personally). And it doesn't make sense for the reward to be individual, since the challenge is done in two parts. If an individual is to win both reward and immunity, why bother to have a tribal portion of the competition? It's more logical that the tribe that wins the first part (Lopevi) will get a tribal reward, and the male that wins the second part gets immunity. And in any case, I can't imagine that MB would have two people away selecting new tribes while TC was going on, since, as Macamrox pointed out, they wouldn't know who was being voted out. The person that *wins* immunity has always gotten to cast a vote at the subsequent TC. (Rupert in S7 and Kathy in S8 got immunities only because the other tribes chose to "borrow" them temporarily, and thus they were not present at TC). Bridge for sale to highest bidder.

>>The Tribal immunity idol cannot be both individual and tribal, it is one or the other.<<Not trying to offend, but you seem really hung up on this point. I don't see why JP & EPMB can't assign whatever value they'd like to whichever prop they choose. Why couldn't the II that we've seen thus far be assigned to ONE individual this week? The IIs and INs are only props, they're not endowed with any great significance other than what the producers decide. And of course, the producers do whatever they'd like. As we've seen in the past, they're not afraid to randomly change things that had previously been carved in stone. (fire is your life in this game, once your torch is out...need I say more?)

>>>The Tribal immunity idol cannot be both individual and tribal, it is one or the other.<<<>Not trying to offend, but you >seem really hung up on >this point. You're right I am hung up on it. (Probably will lead to my undoing.) Although I've watched most episodes since S1, most of you are wiser to the finer points of the game than I am. So I will defer to your collective expertise, but it seems to me that in all prior episodes when competition changed from tribal to individual, so did the idol. This is the only reason why I'm saying the tribal idol cannot represent individual immunity. Survivor is also fraught with symbolism and especially now with S9, spiritualism holds high value. They hold a 'type' of natural law so to speak. VS could likely speak more to this than I can, but I think you can understand my train of thought.

Agree with this post regarding the way the two tribes end up at TC (did not meet a time limit) and that there is a competition for individual immunity and the winner picks a reward partner from the other tribe (who also gets immunity) It is possible that the winner is a woman and takes John K with her (who wouldn't?) ... and that they will spend time in Ep. 4 on showing the reward couple enjoying the time they have left on the islands (since they'll likely get voted off at the next opportunity )
