Tom would be very smart indeed to form a separate secret alliance with Caryn. He would have an easy time winning a million if he were up against her in front of the jury. Most of the women did not like Caryn from the get-go and especially after she would not form an alliance with them. If he could get Caryn and Ian to stick with him then he could choose Caryn to be in the final 2. At least that is the way I would like to see it play out.

Greetings fellow Survivor junkies! Its Thursday, so that means its time once again for your weekly:

SURVIVOR PING!

Only three more episodes left!
Tonight,
Next Thursday (the 12th),
And next Sunday (the 15th) the 2 hour season finale, followed by the reunion show.

Tonight’s episode is titled: “We'll Make You Pay!”

From the official SeeBS website, various video promos and spoiler sites across the world wide web, here is what we can expect to see tonight.

The aftermath of an emotional Tribal Council and stormy weather combine for a night the tribe will never forget. I can’t see the tribe getting all that emotional over booting Steph, so most of this “night the tribe will never forget” probably comes from the stormy weather.

To their surprise and delight, some Survivors are overwhelmed by a visit from their loved ones. I have consulted the magic crystal coffee mug and it says that the winner of the Reward Challenge will be Gregg. Furthermore, the reward will be a day and evening (possibly even overnight) away from the tribe aboard a luxury boat which will include diving and swimming with fish. Jeff also informs Gregg he may bring two additional members of the tribe to share the reward. The magic crystal coffee mug again is consulted and it confirms that Gregg chooses Jenn and Katie to accompany him on the boat. When they get there, they are met by their loved ones and spend the day catching up on all the happenings back home. The others back at camp do not get to visit with their loved ones and vow to seek “revenge” on Gregg for not selecting them. Hence the title of tonight’s episode “We’ll make you pay!”

A strong alliance leaves one castaway on the outside looking in, with Immunity the only chance for survival. This clue refers to Gregg’s alliance with Jenn. Gregg realizes that he was placed in a no-win situation when he won the reward challenge. It’s a given he would pick Jenn to share it with, but of the remaining four, it wouldn’t matter who he picked, because the other three would resent him for it. Since he already knows that he has three votes against him, his only chance for survival is Immunity.

Paranoia sets in as alliances crumble and some Survivors feel like they've lost control of the game. This can only refer to Tom and Ian. Both have been pretty much calling the shots from day one and now they both feel as if they have lost control of the game.

The Reward Challenge appears to be some kind of Q & A with each correct answer permitting the survivor to snuff one of the other’s lantern by dunking it in the water. It’s not clear how many lanterns each player starts out with, but as I said above, the magic crystal coffee mug, (and some vidcaps from the promos showing him sporting new, bright red swim trunks) has Gregg winning this challenge.

The Immunity Challenge appears to be a “best of the best” (or worst of the worst, depending on your point of view) of past challenges. The vidcaps show the players scramble through cargo nets, untying knots and raising a flag, eating even more Baluts, and finally shooting flags. It also is guessed that one or more players are eliminated in each round with the final round being a shoot out between Ian and Tom.

Well, there you have it:

Cuz’s Weekly Survivor Picks!

Reward Challenge winner – Gregg (shares with Jenn and Katie).
Immunity Challenge winner - Tom
Bootee (and 4th member of the Jury) - Gregg

Sorry to disappoint all of you who wanted Katie to get the boot. But it’s not her time to go.

Take care,

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming....
Wow, what a ride!"

Freepmail me if you want added to or removed from the Survivor Ping List!
