Can it be next Wednesday night already?! Maybe it's just me being a newbie to this show, but that was fantastic! I just can't get over it!

SPOILER FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET!







My TV didn't lie! That was the greatest thing ever! Haha, I laughed a lot during that. Totally wasn't expecting it to be Phillip. This should spice up the competition, and the jury a lot. Should Eddie, Malcolm, or Reynold make it to the final, Phillip is going to HATE them!

I'm still excited! :p
'twas a great episode. As to Phillip on the jury, it's possible he might actually respect the guys for making a smart move.

I'm not sure how to read Phillip. At times he seems strategic, and then at other times he seems crazy. I could actually see Phillip voting just to mess things up.

What a great episode!!! Twists and turns and a great ending. Hopefully this opens up the game now.

Totally sick of Dawn and her crying. Enough already. Fricking whack job.

Sherri and Phil are both wastes of space. It took her like 10 minutes to get across those balance beams. I have a broken ankle and could have gotten across them faster. And you know Philip was just cocky about not feeling threatened, so he didn't do the challenge. At worst case, he could have started it and just did poorly on purpose(He has a history of that) instead of sitting out. I'm amazed at Brenda so far. Totally under the radar and has obvious issues with her leg, but keeps on pushing through and not a complaint is shown.

When Malcolm found that Idol I was just loving it. I had thought in my mind "It would be awesome if he gave one to Eddie and all 3 had one", but figured that he would like to keep himself safe for 2 weeks instead of 1. Then when he whipped it out(easy ladies), I had the same reaction as Eddie did...that was awesome. And the faces of everyone else....BAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH. Pure shock and scramble. Did you notice how quickly they turned on Andrea? Hope she saw that.

Seeing Erik's vote, he may just go along with those 3 and add Sherri to it and they have control again. Not to mention the idol's will be replaced, so those will come back into play too.

Malcolm is getting too cocky. The hidden immunity idols make the game more interesting, but they put no effort into hiding these things. Seems like Malcolm practically trips over them.

Terrific episode. Loved the Tribal Council and the looks on everyone's faces. But I wonder how much the producers intervene in the game when they want to keep things from getting too predictable. They have control over the challenges (physical, mental or whatever) and when and where to put the hidden idols. Not to let the players off the hook - some of them make their own bad luck by being jerks or being too lazy to search for idols.

That was so awesome when Malcom gave Eddie that idol !! Kind of stunned but extremely happy they took out Phillip. He was never going to get enough votes to win. So glad we dont have to listen to his stealth are us crap and his stupid nicknames ! No other tribal will live up to this one. That was pure jaw drop.

The only time the producers are allowed to interfere is if there is a health risk/injury. They get to make the call if someone has to go, despite if the player wants to stay (if it is something serious). Other than that, the only "interference" would be when Jeff is asking questions during tribal council, seeing if somebody will let something slip, or reveal a strategy, etc. The rest is all the contestants actions & choices.

They do pull a contestant to the side to talk to the camera privately, and ask him/her: "What did you think about when (insert here) happened?" Or "What are your feelings on (insert player's name here)?". But that is only to give the TV audience an in depth look at how a player is strategizing, or what is going through his/her head when events happen, etc.

Needless to say, there are no scripts in Survivor.

Now about last night. Wow, just wow. What an incredible twist during tribal council. The Three Amigos still have to pull some strings to get the numbers in their favor (and hope they find idols again), but seeing all the members of Stealth R. Us squirm & s**t themselves at the last minute was priceless. True shock factor, and possibly the best tribal council the show has seen. Now to see if anyone else of Stealth decides to join the Amigos...making the tables truly turn for the long haul.

Speaking of Phillip and last night, does anyone else think he made up that story about why he was afraid of doing that challenge?

With him, I'm suspicious that he just didn't want to look bad doing it.

It's Phillip, so it's definitely a possibility.

In the Phillip interview, I think he hit Brenda spot on with his word association. She's dangerous, IMO. Stay quiet, be nice to everyone, be very friendly and approachable.

As of now, everyone will want to vote for her at the end, because she's the good girl who can't do wrong. She's effective in the challenges, and she's tough.

Oh and also, what was up with Dawn and the lost retainer thing? I'm confused as to how she wouldn't be able to play the game without it. Are there infection concerns? Is it an absolute must for eating? Or did she just not feel comfortable with teeth missing?

Dawn was at her wits end by that point.
I think she just felt way to embarrassed to be without her teeth on camera and in front of the other players.

I don't think it was like a medical necessity. I think she was threatening to pull herself out because she was that freaked out at that moment.

Yeah, Dawn's getting on my nerves. Hopefully she is better after the sleep, but I somehow doubt that.

I was thinking the same thing last night. And it seems nobody else in the game has a target on her, so she could easily slide under the radar into the final. I'm surprised none of the contestants see this threat in her. Like you said, likeable, hard working around camp, and does very well in the challenges. Letting her make it to the finals would be perilous for anyone else still competing.
