Noura has crazy eyes.
Yes, she should have just pushed hard to be the caller.
No way this show does not tell them to try to keep Rob and Sandra secret. It’s clear that is happening.
Yeah, it’s weird they don’t make it clear the Rob and Sandra are a secret. It’s obvious.
I think that’s what I would’ve thought too. I love how quickly they saw through her BS.
There was so much wrong with her “story”. The main one in my eyes is that she was promising a benefit to the tribe without clearly spelling out what that was. She’s not well liked anyway. Bullshit story, might have an idol, don’t like your bitching around camp… yeah, you’re not calling. Plus she proved she sucked at it in practice.
I would’ve laughed my ass off if she had been made the caller, they lose, and she gets voted out. The “extra vote” or “block a vote” advantage is only good if you have an alliance to work with.
On the other side, I was disappointed with Sandra’s comment about Elaine not having any idea what’s going on at tribal. An experienced player like her should be able to see the difference between someone actually not knowing what’s going on (like Dean) and someone just pretending.
Alliances never bothered me because I enjoy watching them crumble. And they always crumble.
Speaking of which, the all-women alliance has done a pretty good job of taking out their own allies.
It’s not a rule but they suggest it.
They’ve got to break the dam eventually. I’m guessing at the merge everyone will know.
Noura is getting the Bat-shit Crazy edit. Remember Ben “Coach” Wade, Special Agent Phillip Shepard, and Debbie (dozens of occupations) Wanner?
They all stayed for a long time in their first season. I think we will see Noura stick around for awhile. I hope so, she is great entertainment.
Noura spinning that yarn was hilariously awful. So fishy, of course sitting her out was the thing to do.
She really did give them an advantage though. Being ready for a challenge like that is pretty handy and I wonder if they would have come up with that killer “stick together at first” strategy if they hadn’t had time to think it over.
That did seem a little unfair since they’re just flipping back and forth between tribes for Island of the Idols. It should have been more vague like “You have to make yourself the leader for the next challenge.”
Good point. Or just short-circuit whatever she was scheming.
Not often you see someone get so openly and aggressively thwarted like that. She’s lucky they won the challenge.
The whole Noura saga, from the moment she set foot on IotI, was hilarious. I don’t even think the editors had to work too hard to make it hilarious.
Often I root for the crazy people to be voted off, as they can be annoying or even painful to watch. But Noura seems like a harmless brand of crazy, and is quite entertaining. I hope she sticks around for a while. I could even see her making it all the way to the end as somebody’s goat.
They should aim either for goat or to be voted off before making the jury, because they have burned her as far as voting for anyone on that tribe at the end.
I mention this I every Survivor thread, but I want a season to be all returning players who were crazy, call it Goat Island.
Who will be on it? Phillip the Federal agent, Coach, Noura…who else?
Yeah, Noura, Coach, Philip and Reem from last season. Then there was Russel Hanz’ nephew who creeped everyone out so much they voted him off without going to tribal. It would probably only be interesting for a couple of episodes, then you’d feel bad for watching.
Missed the edit, but also Erik the ice cream scooper.
