Survivor Philippines**Sept 19**No Spoilers

[Jennasis]

While I wouldn't put it past her, I don't think Abi stuck her tongue out at Denise. I think it's camera position/editing. I think she was sticking her tongue out at someone on the jury and it just looked like she was aiming towards Denise.

I think Lisa is in serious need of a therapist- she sure has some issues!!

I laughed my butt off reading Abi-Maria profile!!

Lisa's rock?

Jell-O could be her rock. She's a head case.

If I were there I'd want to go to final 3 with Abi & Lisa.

I don't believe there will be a final 3. There are 6 left in the game and currently 5 on the jury. They need 4 more jurors to make 9 leaving a final 2. At least that's how I hope it happens

 

[LuvsDragonflies]

I cannot stand Abi. If she becomes a final three I'll just stop watching, how they can all stand having her around is beyond me.

Did anyone notice what Penner was whistling as he was leaving. I am fairly certain it was the theme from The Facts of Life.

 

[OhMari]

Why was Jeff asking Lisa all those scripted questions.

Malcolm was glad to see Penner go. And for Penner whistling Lisa's theme song? heck you have to be over the age of 40 to remember her show. I think Lisa is more upset with her so called forced marriage than being a child actress.

No way! I deleted it so I can't go back to listen. Totally missed that.

I think you are right. Too funny!

 

[Pembo]

I read that Lisa decided to end her marriage before she went on the show and filed for divorce in September. It helped me to understand her more.

Good catch thegales - I recognized the tune but couldn't place it.

 

[Bob NC]

I don't believe there will be a final 3.

It goes instantly from 4 to 2?

She must have multiple personality disorder if she believes one word of that bull.

I think my wife has multiple personality disorder. Last night she was my 8th grade math teacher.

 

[Mom2Ashli]

I had a feeling that Abi would not be going home. And it seemed like the whole show was rigged that way to help her stay. Seriously, the whole season she has only participated in 3 challenges and she sucks at them. And they give her one that all she has to do is untie knots! Give me a break. Abi sees what everyone else is doing wrong, but she can’t see how she treated everyone for 20 something days before they told her how mean she was. She just can't understand why people don't like her. Hope she sees things differently after she is sitting at home watching the show. One can only hope.

 

[Jennasis]

I thought Penner was whistling the Survivor theme song. Now I wish I hadn't deleted it.

 

[threeboysmom]

She didn't have a lot of strategy, just lucky.

I can't stand the girl, BUT I will have to say, she played a good game this week. Holding onto her money knowing from past Survivor auctions there would be an advantage at some point, faking everyone out with the fake idol, reading the first message out of supposedly two messages on the note... really HATE to admit it, but great strategy there!

I was just baffled. Opening your bid at $500? Who are you, and what are you thinking?

Again, GREAT strategy of Abi's! She jumped in as soon as the word "advantage" was out of Jeff's mouth, giving no one else a chance at bidding against her.

Did anyone else think the last part of the immunity challenge was rigged? Why were the first two parts physical but the last one they only had to untie knots? It was a big Hmmmm moment for me...like they were setting Abi up to win.

I too am very suspicious of that challenge. Seems like it was designed specifically for Abi to win, especially bc they didn't even use the big ropes for the knots - they used very thin cords easily undone by her tiny fingers (as opposed to a man's). Just reeks of interference by the producers.

Did anyone notice what Penner was whistling as he was leaving. I am fairly certain it was the theme from The Facts of Life.

OOOOOH! Good catch there!! I was wondering why he was so deliberate in whistling that tune. I need to go rewatch online! (I'm over 40 and loved that show - can't believe I didn't catch that!)

I thought the same thing.

 

[Mickeynutty]

I thought Penner was whistling the Survivor theme song. Now I wish I hadn't deleted it.

So, I re-watched the end of the episode. I think Penner WAS whistling the Survivor theme song. I think The Facts of Life theme would have been funnier!

That's what I thought too. It sounded like the Survivor theme song.

I wouldn't stop at that point. Finally TC will be very entertaining if she's there.

I couldn't make it out, or what he was doing. Penner was making some kind of movement in the trees, making like he was leaving, then coming back, just dragging it out.

 

[Maggie Lizer]

Abi-Maria is a [word I can't use here] and would not get any votes at FTC, so I can see the appeal of keeping someone like that around. If I were Lisa and Skupin, I'd be worried about a Carter immunity run (where the heck did he come from, and darn if he isn't really performing in these IC's) and ending up with a F3 of Skupin, Lisa and Carter. Carter likely wins that match up.

As awful as Abi-Maria is, it will be funny if she is out next week and has to spend time with the other jury members. The fireworks between her and RC would be awesome.

 

[Jennasis]

Anyone else spend the episodes simply enjoying the faces Carter makes? I mean seriously...looks like there isn't a thought at all in that head.

LOL I was thinking that too.
