FYI, there are 3 more episodes left this season

brainee

Grrr ... DVR only recorded the first episode How fast do these take to go up on CBS's site?

This season continues to make no sense. So many of these folks have no idea what they're doing.

I kept waiting for Natalie and Baylor to go after Jaclyn once Jon won immunity.

And I really disliked the preview for next week.

brainee

What makes the move make less sense is that Jon is now aware that someone in his alliance wasn't telling him the truth. What's the benefit of blowing the cover if you're not going to take either Jon or Jaclyn out of the game?

And Mr. Perfect finds another HII. Oh joy

Baron Of Hell

Kind of silly to take out Alec. If you want to take out Jon and you can't you take out is his greatest ally since you will have to take her out anyway.

Seems like Natalie was playing things perfectly and I can't think why she would needlessly blow her cover like that. Make a huge move and take out Jaclyn or wait until your next shot at Jon. Getting revenge over playing smart could end up being her downfall unless the preview for next week wasn't just deception.

I actually like Jon and Jaclyn and would be happy if one of them won the game, but as much as I didn't like her prior to the season, I was really impressed with Natalie until this episode.

GuessWho

I believe ousting Jon was more about getting him before he played the new idol. They can technically get Jacklyn anytime.

windom

Not really. If Jon wins the immunity challenge and it's the last time to play the HII, he would give it to Jacklyn so she would be safe too. Or if Jacklyn won immunity at the time, they would both be safe also.

I'm not sure if Jaclyn's insane stomach and nice butt would be worth keeping her around as a girlfriend. Gee whiz this girl is one big high-maintenance center of attention. Her fight with John may have been edited for maximum drama, but even so, she seems like one big pain in the ass.

And to my shock and horror, I'm actually really liking Natalie. I'm an Amazing Race fan, and I couldn't stand the Twinnies when they were on that show. I wanted to change the channel or throw my remote at the television every time they were on my screen. But Natalie solo? She's actually pretty cool. Though I don't think her strategy last night was the smartest. It seemed like a dumb move, but I doubt if it will be a fatal one for her.

Cardsfan111

Sadly, it appeared as if the fight was edited down. I didn't think it appeared all the bad but they talked it up at Tribal like it was a massive deal.

I'm ashamed to admit feeling the same way. I'm not rooting for her, but she's no where near as annoying as she was on TAR.

Shannon Nutt

I agree. It was embarrassing to see how whipped Jon is already...he kept saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" and the dude had nothing to apologize for.

mwbmis

Well there is only one of her. That can only help. She's still annoying on her own though. I can't defend Rocker, but she was pretty insufferable in that arguement.

Patman

"My dad has brain cancer... oh, I think I'll go play Survivor with my pageant-hottie girlfriend... "

dfmaverick2

I'm with you on that one. The minimal gain blows all the groundwork set for a blindside. Now they'll have to factor in that there is a high probability that Jon will play his idol.

Unless Jon goes on a win streak we may see a finale with all women.

Double_Oh_7

Natalie makes no sense. If she wants Jon gone so badly, why did she tell him last week to play the idol? He had enough votes.

leeta

She probably wants to personally take him out.

Red Dog

I didn't understand that either.

wirefan

Natalie was probably a week too early on the move, but I get some concern that Keith out would leave open the possibility of J&J winning over Drew and forcing at worst a 3-3 tie

And if they take out Jaclyn, Jon is pissed off and it's potentially 3 guys vs 3 gals.... or even worse Missy is also upset as she wasn't clued in and convinces Baylor not to blindly draw rocks with a potential 3-3 vote and make it 5-1 against Nat. (or even 4-2 with Missy voting on her own to protect her and her daughter)

Of course if they take Keith out, Jon is probably still oblivious and Jaclyn is aligning herself with anyone who smiles at her for a few minute and they are probably not too worried about winning Drew over and Jon would be ripe for a blindside (and if not Jon, then you could blindside Jaclyn with only 2 guys left)

Jackskeleton

Because she's stupid. Simple as that. I really want anyone but Natalie to win. She's just so awful of a player and really lets her emotions get in the way of the game.

TwineTime

Yeah, she should be more like Jaclyn. Oh wait...

Didn't we discuss this last week? She wanted another man from the minority alliance gone before she made a move against Jon, so her best bet was to convince him to waste his idol last week. This time she got rid of Reed and then went after Jon but he won immunity.

Yes, she could have gone after Jaclyn, but the move to boot Alec instead of Keith keeps someone who can beat Jon in the immunity challenges while taking away a player who'd be closer to Baylor or Jaclyn than her. Not to mention, it leaves the option of going forward without Jon thinking she's after him.

TerryW

Really hoping that Keith wins this season.

DRG

I kind of get Natalie's reasoning with taking out Alec over Keith. Alec is buddy-buddy with Jackie and when it came to the standard 'desperation moves' he approached Jon and Jackie. Keith, on the other hand, went to Natalie and Baylor and argued to get out Jon, which Natalie already wanted. She probably figured Keith would be easier to get on her side than Alec.

The problem with her strategy is I don't think she realized Baylor had went all Twilight over Alec 'sharing his feelings' (barf). Nat's biggest mistake was going rouge against Baylor even after finding out Baylor wasn't onboard. She's plotting two steps ahead without securing the current step.

Spiderbite

Looks like you can blame a "very special" kid for that.

I'm going to take another look at her lying in the shelter before I delete the episode.

Yeah, I agree she's nowhere near as annoying as she was on TAR, but wouldn't go far as saying she's likable.
