Survivor Fantasy League

The answer to this week's Survivor Fantasy League Bonus Question is:

Jeff Probst

The question is: On the December 10 finale of SURVIVOR LIVE, Julie was asked if she is dating someone. Who is that someone?

My clueless prediction for the final four:
First Place: Eliza will win it all! I've been in her corner all along so why stop now?
Second Place: Chris, however he's leading most online polls that I've seen to win it all.
Third Place: Twila, who wouldn't want to be in the final two with the "liar"?
Fourth Place: Scout, she's too nice and no one wants to be in the final two with her.

Chris will win the final immunity challenge and choose Eliza to be in the final two with him. Chris will then join the long list of final immunity winners to finish in second place.

Here's how I see the votes shaking out.

For Eliza:
Ami, Leann, Julie, and Scout.
Julie will vote for Eliza because she was hurt that Chris voted against her. The others will hold to their womyn's alliance.

For Chris:
Sarge, Chad, and Twila.
Twila hates Eliza so much that she won't vote for her. The guys will stick with Chris.

Notes:
1. The final Survivor is Sunday night.
2. There was a Survivor Live Friday with Julie but I missed it. I'll try and watch it Saturday and post my notes before Sunday night.

Episode 13, Julie Says Good-bye

or That Julie Chick is Dreamy

Note: the finale is Sunday night!
Two hours, plus a live reunion show.

Julie wins reward and has some alone time to work on Chris. Eliza wins immunity. Julie, despite her best efforts, is voted off the island.

After the previous Tribal Council, Chris is relieved that Ami is gone "one less thing to worry about". Twila gets real defensive about her "lying" and proceeds to drop several "F" Bombs. Privately Chris says that her outburst really offended Julie and Eliza. (In my opinion her blow-up seemed uncalled for.)

Reward Challenge
Competition: a series of mini-challenges (1 Survivor eliminated at each stage)
Reward: Winner gets a horseback ride to Mount Yasur for an over night stay in a rustic hut with plenty of food.

This competition was series of challenges seen earlier in the season.

Stage One: crawl under netting through mud. Eliminated: Scout
Stage Two: Capture a Pig. Eliminated: Eliza (she had trouble catching a pig before too)
Stage Three: Tiki Assembly. Eliminated: Chris (he totally missed one of his pieces)
Stage Four: a short Obstacle Course ending with a Sling Shot contest. Eliminated: Twila

Julie wins Reward and picks Chris to share it with her. On the ride to the mountain there were several beautiful views including a water fall. Their hot dogs were cooked with the heat of the volcano (I think). At night there was a spectacular view of the erupting volcano.

Of course Julie worked on Chris while she had him alone. Chris played along but didn't really commit to saving her. Twila was the obvious target. As soon as he got back to the camp Chris reassured everyone else that the plan to vote Julie off remained unchanged.

While Julie and Chris were away, Eliza had a little fight with Twila over bananas that Twila had buried (to help them ripen and save for breakfast later). Scout seemed to side with Twila.

This really upset Eliza. When Julie returned they worked to get Chris to change his mind and vote for Twila.

Immunity Challenge
Competition: Story time and a race to answer questions based on the story Jeff told them about Vanuatu.

Jeff told them a story about an old tribal chief of Vanuatu. The Survivors then raced to huts to assemble a puzzle with a question about the story on it. The first one to answer five questions correctly wins immunity. Eliza won immunity and Julie was a close second.

Tribal Council
(paraphrased)
Jeff: It's been 36 days and only 5 of you are left. Twila is there anyone who doesn't deserve to be this far?
Twila: I don't know.
Jeff pressures her some more.
Twila: Well yes, some one doesn't belong.
Eliza: It's me. She thinks I don't deserve to be here!
Twila basically says "Yes".
Jeff: Eliza do you think everyone deserves to be here?
Eliza: Yes, we have all worked hard to get this far.
Chris: Tonight is the hardest vote yet.

Julie is voted off and Eliza looks a little upset.

Alliances
Chris and Eliza versus Twila and Scout. The next immunity challenge is very important and I think Chris or Eliza will win it.

Heroes & Villains
My favorite is Eliza (as she's been since the start) followed closely by Chris (he had to grow on me as an under-dog). Twila I'm indifferent to and Scout I really don't care for. Scout just seems smug and doesn't seem to do anything except talk (often cryptically - "Julie get back to your roots." What?). So I hope Scout is the next to go.

Official Episode Title: Eruptions of a Volcanic Magnitude!

Won Reward: Julie
(A horseback ride to an overnight stay on Mount Yasur.
She chose Chris to go with her.)

Won Immunity: Eliza
(Her first immunity win.)

Voted Off: Julie
Aired: 3 votes for Julie, 2 votes for Twila
Scout voted for Julie; Julie voted for Twila

Survivor Fantasy League

The answer to this week's Survivor Fantasy League Bonus Question is:

The Amazing Race

The question is: On the 12/03 episode of SURVIVOR LIVE, which other reality show did Ami say she wanted to be a contestant on?

My clueless prediction: Julie will be gone this week.
I think Chris and Eliza would like to be in the final four with Scout and Twila, so that leaves Julie on the outs (unless, of course, she gets immunity).

Note:
The next Survivor Live (tomorrow) is the last one.

Survivor Live with Ami

Survivor Live, the Internet Talk Show
Guest: Ami
Hosts: Chris Booker & Richard Hatch, winner first Survivor

Comments made by Ami
Lost 20 pounds during Survivor. She never watched an entire season of Survivor before and Eliza had to tell her about the merge! She claims not to hate men, that she just wanted to see an all women final four. (I don't believe her.) She's still disgusted about Twila's lying but realizes that it's just a game (again I don't believe her, she still takes it personally). The women would have taken in John K. Ami would have liked to be in the final two with Leann. Ami liked Rory too, except for all his cursing.

Scout, Twila and Eliza really liked Chris that's why she didn't try to get rid of him. Julie and Chris are like brother and sister. Eliza didn't eat any coconut (she doesn't like it). Twila is playing the game but playing it scared. Scout was amazing, she was real helpful with the shelter and picking food. Ami's biggest mistake was telling Twila she wasn't going to be in the final four. Ami would play Survivor again, but next time be focused 100% of the time.

Comments made by Richard
Ami played with her gut instead of her mind. She was made out to be the villain but was accurately portrayed. Twila's playing more of a game than he thought. Eliza is still not playing well. (Will Richard still say this after Eliza is in the final two?)

Note:
The next Survivor Live (thursday) is the last one.
