Nah. Rafe would have gotten all pissy and upset that she even had to ask.
Okay. Let’s say you find yourself on Survivor next season. You’re in the final 5. It’s time for the Reward Challenge–winner gets a car. On your mark, get set…
Do you even attempt to win this challenge?
Yep. Don’t know that I’d win it, but if I didn’t, I’d make whoever did win earn it.
I’d attempt to come in second - hoping that whoever won uses Cindy’s logic and brings me along for the grub.
Not this, nor any other individual reward challenge. I’d be busting my butt in individual immunity, sure. Reward? No way. Someone else can paint a great big target on their head for winning all the food, thanks.
Someone earlier said these cars are all fugly (FYI- I kind of liked the car last night.)
I would imagine Chevy has done the market research in picking their cars to give away.
That means if the cars are all ugly, their research shows that the average Survivor viewer is inclined to buy an ugly car like the one the advertise.
What does that say about us?
That we all lie to market researchers, just to see what fugly car they’ll come up with next?
Eh, these were your basic SUV’s. Not particularly ugly, unlike the mock truck that Tom won last season.
It would have been a no-brainer to me, too. Cars just don’t mean that much to me. Seriously. They’re heaps of metal that depreciate the second you drive them off the lot.
Besides. The good will that Cindy could have enjoyed would have been priceless.
I would have only given them away if I thought I had a good chance of making it to the final two.
At that point, it makes financial sense.
But for Cindy, who had no firm alliance and was left out of the vote the night before, it was probably the best move.
That reminds me that I grimace in revulsion every season when the two disgusting haven’t-showered-in-a-month-while-sweating-profusely contestants get into the car for their ride to the reward.
So much for that new car smell, eh? Blech.
Good deal. He really is a good host for the show.
We need to keep in mind how heavily edited the show is. While they follow the Challenges very closely, we see very little camp life, except as an adjunct to strategy talk. What we’ve seen of Lydia is all work around camp- grinding corn, getting water, even working to cheer everyone up. She has done a little strategy talk, but again, given the editing, we don’t really know how much.
So given the choice, who would you vote out- a strong competitor who will get immunity instead of you, or someone who doesn’t threaten you but works really hard in camp? It totally makes sense that Lydia is still there.
I get why Lydia is still there. She is not a physical or mental threat and her strategizing seems to be “You need my vote? It’s available!”
Lydia has ALWAYS been on the winning side of a vote. She’s really just a cog.
I’m betting Steph gets the boot. And instead of calling people scumbags she starts to cry. The Lydia goes, because she can’t win an event if her life depended on it. Then Rafe wins it all.
The real question is: will she be able to compose herself in time for her farewell confessional?
The last immunity challenge is usually an endurance test. Of the final four, who is the most physically prepared to handle it? I’ve got to go with Stephanie as much as I don’t want to. Lydia has no chance IMHO. Danni might make a good run at it as it shouldn’t take much strength to hold up her bag of bones. I’m undecided on Rafe.
If it is one of those challenges where they have to stand on a poll in the water, i could see Danni winning.
With those skinny legs and that pink hat, she kind of reminds me of a flamingo.
It’s a red hat, or at least it’s supposed to be red. Yea, they do seem to pull that one out every year, don’t they. I’d bet on Steph. Skeletor has just lost too much strength.
Then again, maybe she’ll jump off on purpose to gain respect like …whoever it was that gained respect last year…You know, that guy *without *the million dollars.
