Episode 5 Thought's

[pawpaw]

Some FYI

There were 6 players each for the food challange, we only saw 5 each. Erik (Galu) & Natalie(FOAFOA) also failed to drink theirs. So Ashley wasn't the only one.

Seems Ashleys beef with Liz came episode II, when talking about Ben or Betsy going, Liz ran straight to Ben to say what Ashley had said. ( Remember this was edited so that it looked like Russell told Ben )

Ashley--I totally trusted Russell and had no idea he was doing those things.
+
Ashley--everyone on our tribe liked Russell
=
Russell ain't going anywhere soon.

I actually asked her this very question. She said that she and Dave were the 5th points. The game was the first team to 5 points, so they didn't need to take their round. Her story is that they would have come after her round, but since she failed at 5, her team lost.

In another interview she said that--is this the ole rewritting history act we get sometimes from boots--"i wasn't the only one but you didn't get to see it?" Rewriting history so the loss wasn't all on her?

She specifically that they were up next and didn't have to do it. Reality Blurred speculated that they both failed. I have no idea what she told Andy, but she told me that they did not take a turn.

The interview is almost up. Check it in a few minutes.

I can honestly say...this episode is by far my favorite of the seasons so far. I'm just completely amazed at how easily Evil Russell has managed to completely take over and control his tribe. Everyone there, even the guys...has put their trust into a man who has no problem telling people that they need to be careful about double crossing them because they'll be gone. He pretty much shouts out that he has all the power in the tribe and can control everyone and no one tries to step in and do something about it. The man is amazing...like him or not the ability to jump into a situation with total strangers and then wield the power he has almost immediately is insane!

If he makes it to the merge...I don't see that stopping him at all. I bet the 90210 clique on Galu is just as easily manipulated as Foa Foa is. I can see Russell getting in there, breaking up that tribe alliance and taking out the strong players. Then with the help of Shambo, he'll pick off the 90210 group and then use his original tribe to get rid of Shambo and Jaison. After that he'll get rid of Mick (is that the guy's name on Foa Foa? The quiet one in the background?) because he'll just be too likable. I don't have a doubt in my mind at the moment that he can force his way into the final 2 with Natalie and take this entire damn game.

Also...I love how gradually I've gone from supporting Galu to Foa Foa...even with Russell being there. I think he's found a way to manipulate me into liking him. I'm impressed.

Russell is definitely keeping my interest in the show. The last person I enjoyed this much was Todd from china.
