Originally Posted By koobar i went out last night but set my timed recording. great episode, mainly because of the immunity challenge. shane is definitely playing it up for the cameras johnny fairplay style. cbs has episodes available for download. unlike iTunes it's 1.99 for a SINGLE viewing within 24 hours of purchase.

Originally Posted By cstephens Wow, no one's posted anything. Either everyone else taped it too or people weren't that interested in what they saw. Just finished watching the tape. I thought it was funny that after all the drama between Shane and Courtney, they ended up being tied together in the immunity challenge and working very well together. Shane seems to be ticking off everyone in his tribe, one person at a time. It was funny to see Danielle standing there watching Cirie (hello, how is that helpful?), but then the whole thing about how she doesn't do anything was pretty funky. When they got to the immunity challenge, there was one shot where she looked like she was about to burst into tears. That was one of the closest challenges I recall seeing. I'm glad Sally got to stay. I do like her better than Ruth Marie, and I think her actual contributions to the tribe are far more vital than Ruth Marie's "loyalty". Funny that Bruce is still the only one who's never gotten a torch! /cs

Hopefully it is earlier rather than later. OK, I understand the idea behind stashing the firewood in the well built toilet, since it'll probably be drier than anything Casaya can build, but I understand Bobby's desire for a toilet. Just how long is that toilet paper going to hold up in the tropics? Yeah, it's not going to get rained on, but TP still soaks up the humidity. And when it does that... yuck.
Originally Posted By Labuda Why do the good guys keep losing the immunity challenges? As far as I'm concerned, the folks of Casaya are mostly a bunch of weirdos and losers, and I just do NOT comprehend how they keep pulling together the way they do for challenges!
Originally Posted By nevadarebel my thoughts exactly Labuda. I figured that they were a much stronger team but I guess strength isn't everything.

Originally Posted By Labuda I missed the showing of the votes - just paid attention to who got voted off - who did Shane vote for? And, um.... who is Aras?
Originally Posted By Rivkah86 Shane voted for Aras. When speaking into the camera, he whispered that it was a throw-away vote. He did this because, earlier, he swore to bobby that he wouldn't vote him off, and made bobby swear on his son to stay faithful to Casaya after the merge (Shane was very worried that Bobby would flip to the other tribe if given the chance, so this was his way of ensuring that bobby remained loyal). Then, some in his alliance decided to vote bobby off (over bruce), and shane was stuck. he did not want to go back on his promise, however He DID want bobby voted off, but couldn't vote for him. So, where was his vote going to go? He knew that if he voted for bruce, along with the others, then bruce would have the most votes. and he did not want that, because he wanted bobby off. so, he "threw his vote away" on aras. Why aras? I really don't know. I would have thought it would be courtney, since she annoys him so much. well, anyways, hopefully that make sense.
