Survivor: Philippines - Down and Dirty

Penner is a target right out of the gate tonight.

It's nice that there is a serious all out grueling reward challenge!

[QUOTE=kvm1977;323667]Well, they were...dumb decision to give up all the rice IMO[/QUOTE] It was stupid and they shouldn't have been allowed to do it.

Now having seen the tribe reactions, it might not have been a loss as the rice winners seems demoralized because of it.

[QUOTE=kvm1977;323674]I mean, if it really is only 2 days of rice then it wasn't bad[/QUOTE] Agreed. I figured it was some vast quantity of rice. Not a few scoops.

Of course, now they are all "starving."

[QUOTE=kvm1977;323680]Malcolm's simply the best player--Jeff's the only one close to him physically.[/QUOTE] Unfortunately, Jeff is about 12 years past his physical peak... They started the episode hinting at Penner, but it doesn't make sense to get rid of him now when at least he is hauling in guppies! ;)

[QUOTE=kvm1977;323682]Yeah, it has to be Carter or Katie (I think that's her name)[/QUOTE] Those two top my list as well.

The tribal editing was interesting, but I think they made the right decision.

[QUOTE=kvm1977;323687]Okay, since a lot of people here know Survivor far better than me--will there likely be a merge now or some type of realignment?[/QUOTE] It looked like it could be a merge, but it just might be a twist. No matter what if the merge is not next week it will probably be the week after. When their rice is getting to that point, they generally restock them - meaning merge.
