3. "Here are the Ep. 4 clues from CBS" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-03-11 AT 04:25 PM (EST)From CBS: IN AN EPIC DUEL, MATT AND RUSSELL FIGHT FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO STAY ALIVE IN THE GAME, ON "SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND," WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9 "Don’t You Work For Me?" — Secrets are revealed on Redemption Island and the second duel reduces one castaway to tears when he is eliminated from the game for good, on SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND, Wednesday, March 9 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. --------- OMG, would Russell actually cry? Matt seems more likely to cry, but then again, Russell almost cried at the Reunion Show when he didn't get the title of Sole Survivor. Unfortunately these clues are all about RI -- other than the title, nothing to help us with this week's boot.

8. "RE: Here are the Ep. 4 clues from CBS" |
I like your logic BR & I'm thinking the same. Russell has proven himself to be the king of sore losers so I can totally see him crying at the "unfairness of it all." Really, how can they do this to the GREATEST PLAYA EVAH!!! LOL However, one thing does cut against that, from my perspective, and that is that Matt is young, so even though he seems like a good kid who took his boot in stride, the frustration (along with his age) might lead to tears if he is ousted. But I don't really believe that will happen -- with the edit so far I will be very, very surprised if Matt doesn't come back in the game to hook up with Andrea & take Rob out (not that Matt will win neccessarily, but I'm thinking that the edit is making that scenario an almost certainity). Therefore, it has to be Russell, the crybaby, going home. Also, Sandra Diaz-Twine's tweets to the effect that "after next episode we'll really be able to celebrate" bolsters my belief that Matt takes out Russell.

I suppose the misdirection clues being all about RI is a last hoorah for RussHell. I am with Brownroach all the way. He's nailed it. RussHole will cry on his defeat. Matt is a good sport, I highly doubt he'd be reduced to tears. RussHole knows this is his third strike. I also agree that RussHole will be spilling Zapatera secrets galore...if he has any.I think that the editing points to a Matt/Andrea reunion of some kind... Really bummed that there is no clue to the boot this week...

LAST EDITED ON 03-03-11 AT 06:39 PM (EST)The spoilers this season have been crap -- probably junk planted by CBS -- but FWIW (maybe nothing), there was one that Russell cries when he leaves. Last night I was thinking, there goes another one down in flames, This teaser Keeps Hope Alive for me. ETA - I just went through BW's list and it's not one of his. I'm glad of that, because his have really not panned out to date.

LAST EDITED ON 03-04-11 AT 01:04 PM (EST)Honestly, I could see either one of them tearing up a bit at losing, and CBS/SEG making a mountain out of a molehill. But... ... when he is eliminated from the game for good ... could be them getting cute about it and IDing the loser (or winner rather). Good v Evil is the narrative on RI for the moment. Does the Christian defeat the Troll? Does he face the Lion next week? Cute as hell.

20. "Transcript from Sneak Peek..." |
Transcript as posted by Survivor Fever for Sneak peek promo....
Russell: This duel is going to be man on man, a good versus evil type thing. I like Matt, he's a good guy. If this was the real world, I'd be rooting for Matt. But it's not. This is Survivor.
Matt: Russell Hantz is definitely the biggest villain in Survivor history, hands down. But I'm fighting to honor my God. Because I want it so deeply and so truly, I think I'm going to come out on top.

I think they've forgone some of the boot story this week to play up Russell's (hopefully) departure. It's also time for a hidden boot so that works out nicely for CBS!

You may be right. But Rob wins the RvR rivalry the moment Russell is eliminated from the game, which they seem to have handed us on a golden platter this week, Ometepe needs to go on a winning streak.

32. "RE: S22 E4 Title: 'Don't You Work For Me?'" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-08-11 AT 09:26 AM (EST)Thanks for bringing boot discussion to this thread, dabo! You are right, we got absolutely zip on boot discussion from the misdirection clues. The only one that could have uttered the title, imo, is Robfadda himself. I think Rob will feel insecure when he is told that RussHell was the first boot out of Zap. I agree with I think OFG that Rob could be questioned by someone in his alliance when he directs the boot strategy. Let's talk about the thing that could really dictate events...the HII. CBS could really pull out a surprise...someone could find the HII and they may be hiding it. Clearly, CBS is getting alot craftier, finally, after 21 seasons... . Rob's clue was so vague, I don't know if he'll find it. But, he has the clue and so that puts him with the best chance of finding it. We have this shot... 
Everyone hanging out, except Rob. Who could be secretly searching for the idol. OTOH, this video pretty much sums up Kristina's vantage point. PERIOD. Note how close Andrea is sticking to Rob, being sweet, very easy to get along with. Working her way back in. I just don't get the read on Andrea as much as I get on Kristina. Perhaps this is why I think Andrea would be the more dangerous of the two. But, she's young, it's possible that they could mend some fences...don't know. Back to Kristina...clearly, she's playing as hard as she can, and she IS gunning for Rob...As, I've said before, her entire story is wrapped up in the idol. Without it, she's toast. But, suppose she does find it. Sure, they could flush it, and Andrea or Phillip could be the secondary target. Judging from the video of Kristina, it sure looks as if anyone will find it, she will. Or, she could try and fake them out that she has it, forcing then to have to split the vote, 3/3. Perhaps Rob will instruct Andrea and Phillip to vote for Kristina, then of the 4 in his core alliance, he'll instruct one to vote for Kristina, and the rest of them will vote for the secondary target, which I think Rob would favor Phillip (to keep) over Andrea, so most likely Andrea would be the secondary boot choice? So, if Kristina finds the idol, I think Andrea would most likely be booted, and if she doesn't find it, Kristina will be toast. The problem will come later if Kristina is booted....Andrea will know just where she stands in the group....way out in the periphery. So here are the possible outcomes, one of which is EASY... 1. It's easy if someone other than Kristina finds the idol....in order for this to be an easy vote, someone must tell someone that they have the idol. If Rob finds it, and he directs the vote totally for Kristina, then someone could suspect that he has the idol. Boot=Kristina. All votes for Kristina, everyone is happy....easiest scenario, least conflict 2. Kristina pretends that she has the idol. Rob splits vote, Kristina gone, Andrea secondary boot target, exposed as being way low on the totem pole. Or, Phillip is secondary target....I lean to Andrea because Rob owns Phillip's vote. 3. Kristina has the idol. Rob splits vote, Andrea gone.... 4. Kristina has the idol. Rob splits vote, Phillip gone. ETA: Easiest scenario, least drama = Stephanie boot...

LAST EDITED ON 03-08-11 AT 10:14 AM (EST)Now that would make it easy...Phillip finds the idol, they all vote Kristina... Dalton Ross Tweeted this last night~8pm if he's in LA, or at 11 pm if he's in NY... Big news, Survivor lovers: Get ready for the return of "Wanna know what you're playing for?" on Wednesday. I wrote it's epitaph too soon! Now what could he mean by this? Especially about the writing it's epitaph too soon? ETA: I know I am really going way off on tangents here, but if you apply, "Wanna know what you're playing for?" to this weeks challenge. Perhaps it's an auction of some kind where 1 player from each tribe has to do a competition to win whatever is in the crate next to them...In the end, the team that has won the most individual events wins the IC as well...? We see Julie will be vs Grant, Rooster will be vs. Rob...food for thought?

35. "RE: S22 E4 Title: 'Don't You Work For Me?'" |
Now what could he mean by this? Especially about the writing its epitaph too soon? FloPo, Dalton is referring to his EW blog last week, where he lamented that Jeff doesn't get to say the line "Wanna now what you're playing for?" anymore because the RI duels suck up time that used to be used for RCs. So I take this to mean either: a) there's an RC this week (unlikely given that CBS will want to give the RI duel with Russell maximum time), or b) Jeff told Dalton based on popular demand, he's going to be sure to say the line this week, maybe in the combined reward/immunity challenge. I'm guessing it's the latter. Off the wall idea, but I suppose the RI duel could also involve a reward for their respective tribes when there are players from each of the teams -- i.e. the winner of the duel gets to send back a reward with the spectators or something like that. Might be a way to stay in your tribe's good graces. I had also spec'd in another thread that it would be interesting if the spectators got an HII clue or something. That could explain Philip with the parchment. Here are Dalton's original words on this topic: "Before we get to the challenge, I'd like to pause for the cause and say a few words for the untimely demise of what had become a Survivor institution. With the introduction of the Redemption Island duel, we are no longer being treated to reward-only challenges. Instead, we are getting immunity/reward combos. I have no problem with that per se, but in losing the reward challenges, we have also lost one of our classic Probstisms. You know it. You love it. And if you're like me, you already miss it. Say it with me out loud, people: "Wanna know what you're playing for?" Granted, it wasn't the catchiest of catchphrases. And it was always a loaded question anyway because of course they want to know what they're playing for! Why are you even asking? But for some reason I always looked forward to it."

I can see Rob enlisting Phillip to look for the HII. The clue is so vague, it's as good as having no clue at all, so why not get some help? It would further solidify Rob's control over Phillip.

One thing that we haven't even pondered is what secrets are going to be revealed on RI? It sounds like RussHell will be the one revealing things to Matt, perhaps....OR, will RussHell reveal secrets to Phillip and Kristina, who are there watching? If so, what will he reveal...what could he reveal?

40. "RE: What secrets are revealed?" |
In a new article at RealityNewsOnline (3/9/11) author Davie Bloomberg writes:
Note: it seems by the article read that either David Bloomberg was present at the RI filming or has seen a preview of the episode.
-----------------------
"Russell is at Redemption Island. He will battle Matt for the right to stay there and, hopefully, return to the game to exact his revenge. Obviously, I can’t tell you who wins the duel, but I can tell you that it definitely is a nail-biter. Adding to the drama is the fact that two of Russell’s own tribemates are there, rooting against him! But while they are so focused on him, are they paying attention to their own actions? Or will the former federal agent sitting across the arena be able to get some good intel out of them using his wily undercover secret methods? Or, you know, just because they aren’t too bright… You’ve seen the promos suggesting that secrets will be revealed. What secrets? That would be telling – but I can at least say this much: The promos don’t lie."
-------------------------So it looks like Ralph and Sarita blab about Zapatera and Phillip brings back the Intell to spy chief Rob. As to what those blabs consist of... - Maybe just that Steph was with Russ and is now on the outs. That would give Rob an 'in' come Merge/Swap time when he looks for a flip. But then Steph would have to make Merge/Swap to make that a possibility. Long shot I'm sure he'll realize. - Perhaps if Rob knows that Stpeh will likely be the next Zap votee to RI then Rob might know that Matt could be on a winning streak here....time to take action ie send Andrea to RI to insure one of them gets booted from S22 Other ideas guys?

Zaps could let on they threw the challenge in order to boot Russell, a demoralizing factor when it gets home to Ometepe. But the Oms definitely should be thinking of keeping challenge strength and ridding themselves of liabilities when they go to Tribal.

Yes, thanks Freddy for bringing that over here. The promos keep saying that SECRETS will be revealed. Well, there are not too many secrets but there is ONE BIG secret....Ralph has the HII that RussHell never found....what if Ralph slips?Then, what if Sarita goes back and informs the Zaps that Rooster had it all along....David looks pissed still in the press images and he and the girls have got to realize that they are never going to beat all of those buff men over there...what if they blindside Rooster...or Steve, the one that wanted to throw the challenge in the first place...RussHell, Julie, and Jiffy all foreshadowed that Ometepe could gain momentum if the challenge was thrown..... All we have heard is about a giant reward...what if there is another IC challenge? I know you all must think I am letting my imagination run wild, but I just have a hard time with Rob losing a challenge that seems tailor made for him...? What if they win? Then Kooky, loose canon, Phillip is just misdirection... That article said that this episode has everything, and what would that include...a blindside, and let's face it, Kristina is not going to be blindsided, but one of those big, in control men on Zap sure would be. Jeff also hinted that Rooster wouldn't know what to do with the power of the idol....food for thought....late, but nevertheless, food for thought...
