Are they kidding? Seriously, how could it be that shocking? I think Erik wins immunity, and Natalie goes bye-bye.

I don't think that Amanda wanted to target James in the chop. She also answered that James was the most honest with one of her answers.

Well, I laughed when I saw Cirie's face because I swear she looked like she had swallowed a lemon. As to her holding Amanda's hand during the vote, that's not a big deal especially if you think they are getting voted out and you want to "show" your love to "get their vote." (And the conversation that Amanda and Cirie had in the jungle, it was Cirie who wouldn't go along with creating a tied vote because she was not going to risk being taken out by a...

Playing the game. Do you think for a second that Cirie letting Alexis win reward was an accident?

Not sure Amanda has the Jury votes all locked up. She has Ozzy and James' vote, that is about it for now.

Um, from where I was watching Cerie was all big smiles when Amanda pulled out the HII. Only Nat, Alexis and Erik were upset by it. Cerie will definitely play in her own best interest, but I think the threesome between Amanda, Parvati and Cerie will hold. Now if it comes down to F2, it will get interesting since Parv would likely lose to Amanda but not Cerie and...

From watching Cirie's voting confessional, she was in on the plan to blindside Alexis with the idol.

Back during the conversation where Cirie was telling Amanda about voting for her and the purple rock and all that, Cirie offered to tie the vote up but Amanda told her no then we got a cut away from them. I suspect after that, Amanda told her she had or was about to have the immunity idol.

It was evident at TC when Cirie was holding Amanda's hand, then chuckling...

I'll be curious to hear more about what was going on in the reward challenge. Did Amanda intend to try to go to exile all along, or was she just making the best of a bad thing?

I was wondering how it was that they let Amanda go off by herself to dig up the idol. We've seen a couple of times that Cirie is pretty aware of who is where. I was thinking Amanda did some awesome acting job, but a simpler explanation would be that Cirie was helping.

Trixie, big *smooches* to you! Thanks for the PBP. I missed the episode last night, and when I went to watch online this morning, I can only see the very first segment and the Immunity Challenge. Nothing else plays (except for the ads of course.) Your PBP let me find out what went on, so thanks again for the great job.

Uh, how the hell are you reading THAT F3 from the editing?

Well, Parvati has a strong edit, Natalie just got on the scene but looks to be in the thick of things, and Erik keeps winning immunities. That configuration occurred to me last night as well (Parv/Nat/Erik final 3). However, that only happens if Erik does have immunity, otherwise he's gone the minute he doesn't have it.

It makes sense for Cirie and Amanda to stick together since Parvati had Natalie and Alexis way more in her corner.

Why would Cirie and Parv need Erik next episode. Does Amanda team up with Nat?
I think Cirie is wrong, and Erik doesn't "do the right thing". The voting comes out 2-2-1, and they have to start fires.

Nah, you can't have a 2-2-1 tie outcome because they always revote a tie and only the tied players can be voted for the second...

So I guess the plan was for Cirie to vote for Amanda so nobody would suspect Cirie to be sided with Amanda, so next episode Cirie won't be a target if Amanda did go home tonight.

Amanda atoned for her lame China F4 and final TC with a brilliant HI play, and brilliantly exposing Erik. However, Alexis isn't a threat for anything. This is classic SEG, Natalie will eliminate Amanda at the F3 IC and choose Parvati. It's entirely possible Parv is playing it just that way thinking she can win. It won't matter because I suspect Natalie wins this.
