I’m sure that came as a shock the first time they threw it out there.

I was talking to Survivor fan here at work and she espoused an interesting theory, and I’d like to throw it out there and ask fellow Survivor FRans what they think. She believes that Jonathan and Cirie actually are in an alliance and are staging all these fights to throw people off the scent; that they did want to get Yau-Man out (popularity factor) but had to play it cool. She also thinks Jonathan/Cirie have Parvati in the alliance as well.

It would certainly be the smart move - get what is quite probably the most popular Survivor ever (and who the “Fans” on the jury might vote for) and have him think the other side (i.e., couples alliance) did it. Yau doesn’t make the jury so he can’t ask either of them about it and the secret doesn’t come out until everyone’s munching popcorn and watching at home.

Convoluted, sure, but maybe Burnett would like to keep us guessing this time. I don’t know about you, but sooo many of the boots last year were telegraphed before TC that I ended up fast fowarding till the vote.

TONIGHT 8:00 PM (EST)

Greetings all.
I’d like to thank everyone for their heartfelt wishes and prayers during the last 2 weeks. The loss of the wife’s father took us both by surprise and knowing our fellow FReepers were there in spirit helped during this trying time. Again thank you everyone.

I’d also like to thank JillValentine for stepping up and filling in for me during my absence. Jill, from what I’ve read, you did an admirable job. Lets give her a big round of applause folks. Again, Jill, thank you very much.

Now, without further ado, here is this weeks:
SURVIVOR PING!

The Airai Tribe: Orange Buffs
Alexis, Chet, Erik, Jason, Joel, Kathy, Mikey B., Natalie, Tracy

The Malakal Tribe: Purple Buffs
Amanda, Ami, Cirie, Eliza, James, Jonathon, Ozzy, Parvati

The Losers:
Jonny Jackass, Mary, Yau-Man

The title for tonight’s episode is “That’s Baked, Barbecued and Fried!”

From the website:
An unexpected mastermind emerges when someone pits two power players against each other in a last-ditch effort to save a targeted ally.

And from a SeeBS press release:
After finding the hidden immunity idol on exile island, one clever castaway covers their tracks by creating a fake idol, on "SURVIVOR: MICRONESIA -- FANS VS. FAVORITES"

From the previews, here is what we can expect to see:

The Reward Challenge is titled “Dunk and Dive” and appears to take place in or under the water. One by one the tribe members have to dive down and push, poke and prod floating coconuts from one end of a very long cage to the other end. Once the coconut is at the end of the cage, it can be released to pop to the surface. Due to the length of the cage, the players will have to make multiple dives to get their coconut from one end to the other.

The Immunity Challenge is titled “Crosswalk” and appears to involve a race through the forest while tethered to a rope. Not much else to go on here so I have to resort to the SeeBS website clue. Tracy I think is the mastermind that pits Mikey B. against Joel in an attempt to save Chet from getting the boot. Therefore it looks as if the Favorites win this Immunity Challenge sending the Fans to Tribal Council.

Well, there you have it:

CUZ’S WEEKLY SURVIVOR PICKS!
