13-12: "Arranging a Hit" 2006.12.07 (recap)

So, wait. Yul convincing Jonathon to flip is excellent strategy, and he’s a great person. Adam basically acknowledges Yul’s involvement in that. And yet Jonathon is the Rat Cancer of Doom? God, I hate these people. It makes it even worse that Adam used the I word. Also, neither he nor Parvati can talk without smiling vacantly, and I have this feeling that you could hear the ocean if you listened to their skulls. It is obvious that the Raros believe they are coming off great, because the constant Boogiean mugging points to them thinking they’re cute.
I could actually probably graph this, because it seems as though as the Survivors’ like for Jonathon declines, my like for him soars higher. His disregard for Jeff, his eloquence, how obviously he loves his wife, and his contempt for Adam and Parvati just makes me want to buy him a beer.
…aren’t the challenges tested out beforehand? I think anything that can cause the whack to the spine that Sundra endured probably should have been altered a little.

Adumb? Still sucks. Pavarti was nice in this episode (I liked her Dad).
Kinda boring episode till tribal, and I did not see that vote coming.

I swear, if I have to watch Adam's moronic mouth-breathing neanderthal smirking at TC one more week I'll kill someone.
Yul, I still love you, but I'm hella pissed. Now Adam and Parvati are around to start weaseling their way in, and I can't stand it if they aren't voted off next.
Goddammit.
I knew that Sundra couldn't be trusted. And Becky is a snot and a half, and her sister is way hotter. I bet Yul had to vote that way because that's the way the wind was blowing.

And why the hell did the Aitus feel guilty about hiding the coconuts after Adumb and Poverty brought them food from the reward? All they did was provide them with one freakin' meal -- let's do a comparison of how many meals, including firewood and water, Aitu has provided Dumb and Dumber with.
Wow. Voting Jonathon out is going to come back to bite them in the ass. But YAYZ on Jonathon pointing out to the jury that he didn't vote them out all by himself -- it was Raro as a whole that voted them out. The only way he could have made it better is if, after Adumb said he should have been voted out a long time ago, he pointed to each member of the jury and counted out loud the one-two-three-four opportunities they had to get rid of him but instead decided to cannibalize those they were in a (half-assed) alliance with.
And what's really funny is Adumb is probably thinking he's Mr. Slick right about now.

Ozzy is definitely my least favorite Survivor again some more.
Parvati is so silly and ridiculous that I can't help but like her. I don't think Adam is that bad either.
The way Becky and Sundra treated Jonathan was harsh!

Though, early on, tonight’s episode was all about the Probst.
In the Reward Challenge, possibly cost Jonathan the win by loudly pointing out his wife’s clever tactic of wringing the water out of her shirt. Shut it, Peachy!
“Jonathan not even asking permission!” <hee> Yea, Jonathan!
And then, just because I’m 12, Probst’s play by play of the immunity challenge had me giggling:
"Ozzy is already untying his bundle, trying to get going on his pole !"
"Ozzy spacing it out trying to get an idea of how much pole he has to work with!"
"Ozzy’s got his pole together!"
"Ozzy doing it all with the pole !"
On other topics: really subtle “Jonathan’s an outsider!” edit tonight, people. NOT!
Jonathan gave a great argument for why he shouldn’t be voted out. And finally pointed out what we all have been thinking all along: (paraphrased) “Those people over there weren’t just voted out by me alone, their own tribemates voted them out.” That seemed to score a lot of points with the jury. Though, unfortunately, not with his fellow tribemates.
Stoopid, stoopid people. <sigh>

I'm actually quite sad that Jonathan's gone. He may have been obnoxious, but he's sure entertaining.
And did anyone NOT think that Ozzy was a lock for that immunity challenge?

My interest in this show has ebbed like the low tide. Looks like I'll be stuffing cotton into my ears whenever Yul is not on the screen. (I'd add Becky and Sundra, but I don't think they can talk).
Go over to your Stacy, bubbelah, you're a schemdrick and you'll be missed back here in Noo Yawk.
Sigh.

The guy backstabs everyone and then uses the excuse "well it's a game!", but when people do it to him, they're the morons.

GAHHHH! If Parvati or Adam wins, I'll shoot myself. Tm Poverty. It might even be worse than when the dreaded Jenna Morasca won.
Stupid people. Stupid,stupid people. /Shii Devil.

And, frankly, I hope Jonathon didn't put up with any shit from Nate and Candice at Loser Lodge, because, seriously. Has there ever been a player attacked so personally in this game? I mean, I know there have been a lot of fights, but it just seemed like Jonathon was just maligned over and over again. He looked like he was kind of relieved and just disappointed when he was voted off.

I was most disappointed in Becky- she was a Mean Girl personified. And I used to like her so much!

Also, from the previews, it looks as if Becky and Yul are in quite a tough spot because of their decision to remove Jonathan from the game. All I have to say - told you so, kids. Adam should have gone tonight.
It was more to the upper thigh, but it did look quite painful. I'm sure she had quite the bruise there.…aren’t the challenges tested out beforehand? I think anything that can cause the whack to the spine that Sundra endured probably should have been altered a little.

I think it would have been a better idea to keep Jonathon than Adam, but whatever.
And screw Probst and his final lines. "No. One. Can. Be. Trusted. In. This. Game." Was the cue-card guy having a slow day?

When Adam started with his stupid grin at Candace I hope they could be together in juror land.
Yul - hottie. His brother - not his twin.
Ozzy - pole? nut?
That immunity challenge was brutal to all except Ozzy. He's awesome in the water.

As soon as Jeff, describing the immunity challenge said,
"You'll dive into the water a sw-"
I screamed "Ozzy wins" and got up for a bowl of ice cream. Honestly its just starting to seem not even fair. No one else has anywhere near his ability level.

I knew there had to be more to that reward challenge, it sounded too simple at the beginning.
Adam and his dad look a lot alike..
Jonathan/wife and Sundra/mommy got to me the most . Sundra was bawling. I actually wondered if they would bring her son out.
Becky was stoic as her sister was crying tears, although I think I did see a trickle on ole stoneface (as another poster aptly named her).
Jeff was snarky saying, Jonathan wasn't asking permission
Ozzy catches most of the food...I thought it was he and Jonathan together. Also why did Ozzy include Jonathan in the "they can get their own."
I am glad foodgate got thrown out. I didn't like the idea.
That IC was funny, they took some lhits and then some. I knew Ozzy or Yul would win. Wow Ozzy is a challenge monster. Everyone struggled with the barrels except him, he has good balance and co-ordination.
Sundra and Becky were rude to Jonathan and I don't see why they had to be, he did save their ass.
Yul was correct, Aitu saved Jonathan as well as Jonathan saved Aitu and they did owe him. They owed him better than F7
I love Jonathan pointed out that the jury was voted out by their tribemates
I was very dissappointed that Aitu voted out Jonathan, he did not deserve that at all. He should have been F5, he deserved it. Now I see why Sundra and Becky were so quiet. Jonathan flopped for Aitu, got called a rat and was treated horribly and they turned on him. Sad, I am very very dissappointed. They should have told him to his face out of common respect.
Also in regards to next weeks preview, I think the Aitu4 will stay together and be final 4, however they should not even entertain voting each other off. Ozzy is a threat and he needs to go BUT get rid of Adam and Parvarti first. I do not want those two anywhere near f4. I am pissed that they made it farther than Jonathan, their smug faces at TC was too much to bear.
I can say that Aitu wasn't around to see how Raro treated Jonathan pre-merge...still. The shine is coming off Aitu.

Screw you all, Aitu four! I hope Adam wins every fricken immunity challenge and your asses get booted one after the other.
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
What the hell was Yul thinking? Get rid of the one rational, sensible player, causing paranoia to reign, and leaving two strong allies who can persuade your alliance to split up.
And lo and behold, the previews for next week show exactly that happening.
I am not surprised about Ozzy, he's always been an emotional player, but Yul and Becky are supposed to be smarter than that.

I can't wait for his Survivor Live and all of his interviews to come.

That said, WOW voting off Jonathan was a lame move. Very Raro-esque. You know, Adam and Parvati might be smarter than they have been given credit for... pretending like they are already counting themselves out of the game and just making having Jonathan around camp miserable for everyone. Now they are in a great place, with so few people left, to make their move and split up the Aitu's. If Aitu lets that happen, after everything they have done so well so far, they deserve to be called the biggest chokers in Survivor history.
