actually..Chris was correct in wanting to vote Rob out..She knew she was on the chopping block and Rob was on to her...and he was. Her big mistake was telling Phillip and Francesca she had the immunity idol...that needs to be kept a secret and she was outed for opening her mouth.

BTW.. somebody needs to explain to Phil that at tribal council..you can lie to throw off the person you want to vote off. If they had explained that to phil..maybe he would have kept his mouth shut and they would have made a dent in Rob's alliance.

Yup, and for trusting people like Phillip too early on....you have to sit back and let people show their true colours for a bit first. It always amazes me how people blindly trust too early on in that game....fly under the radar as long as you can, people!!

Too bad she didn't hand off the idol to Fran, then at least they might have salvaged something. She should have realized more people were going to vote for Fran, thinking she'd play the idol...although, it was pretty close.


wtf was up with the guy in a suit and tie? Did he think he had a job interview?

Happy Survivor is back...

I was thinking the same thing about the guy in the suit?

Oh Nutcase Phillip... Do you really think we want to see you in your saggy Pink Manties...

It wouldn't have worked..Rob had already told his alliance to split the vote between Christina and Francesca...that way if she had the idol, like he thought..and she played it..then francesca would get the boot for having the next highest votes..if she didn't play it for herself..then she would have gotten the the most votes.

Rob is one smart cookie and stratagizer...but I really thinks he needs to find a real job.

I agree - I mean he has been on every reality show and had a few of his own.

He is going to start losing that "cute" factor.

Didn't he hook up with the hottie that won on his first season? Are they still together? Or did she send him packing after she won?

Amber. They are still together. They had a baby not too long ago. I love them both.

Oh, and Phillip scares the sh*t out of me. He is freaking crazy AND he appears to have a problem with "girls" in any sort of power position. Shudder.

Phil, Phillip.....hey, that’s ‘Former Federal Agent Sheppard’! show some respect! i hope he sticks around for a bit

with Rob gunning for Christina and their tribe seemingly weaker at physical challenges, she is going to need to find a few more idols if she hopes to stick around.

this season looks to be a good one!

I think they just had their second baby, actually.

As soon as she said that, I said to my family, "she's the first one voted out," and I was correct. I give Christine a lot of credit for taking a page out of Russell's book and finding the hidden immunity idol without any clues. But, she has no sense of strategy at all. Keep the strongest players around in the beginning, win challenges, size up the competitors. She will be gone soon.

One law student and 2 lawyers this season. Maybe down to one lawyer if FranchesQCUA doesn't survive Redemption Island.

I thought the suit was a bit bizarre as well, but then I thought, OK, but he can use all the various pieces for layering, covering up when its chilly, using the jacket as a pillow or a blanket, etc. Then again, what do I know, former law student that I am.

Pink Manties! As if that wouldn't be bad enough, they look like ratty old stretched-out pink manties! You'd think he'd at least go out and get some new former special agent super secret skivvies for the show. Or at least replace the elastic around the leg so they don't have to pixelate out your former special agent sack. GAH!

I don't know. Most lawyers I know (including this one) wouldn't last 3 days in that environment! Big difference between playing tough guy in a courtroom or a conference room and playing tough guy in a jungle with no food where it rains 23 hours a day and you try to get 3 hours of sleep while laying on bamboo poles!
