TRIBAL COUNCIL VOTES
---------------------------------

Markopolo's note: This tribe is so weak! Tom, Alicia and Sue should be embarrassed for not standing up to Robfather and his little pet. The trio better not make the big mistake of failing to vote off Waab next time.


TOP 10 weak pathetic Survivors/tribes

1-- Jan -- Batty granny made me want to smash the TV set with a bat.

2-- The entire Thailand Cast -- Besides being duller than the last Matrix -- Brian played them like a soft-porn star. Oh wait..........

3-- Pagong -- Hmmn....4 votes against Gretchen, but there can't be an alliance, right? Greg: I think I'll vote Jenna. Jenna L: I think I'll vote for Greg.

4-- Osten -- My body is more important to me than a million dollars. Sorry, Osten, maybe Jenna's or Heidi's body. Playgirl doesn't sell all that well.

5-- Amber (Australia) -- So, Tina, who are we going to vote off tonight? Tina: We're voting for Liz....now go run along little girl.

6-- Amber (All-Stars) -- slowly moving up the charts. Looks like she'll make a run in the tournament if her RPI (Rob's panties index) is high enough.

7-- Tom, Alicia and Sue (Chapera) -- Please use your brains. Oh wait.......can't use what you don't have.

8-- Vecepia -- I watch 12 episodes, and then she shows up and gets paid a million dollars? Sounds like ARod on Opening Day.

9-- Mitchell -- I can't think of one Survivor who couldn't beaten your sorry ass. Well, maybe Johnny Fairplay.

10-- Jessie -- Drink the water, dammit! Either that, or ask Clarence to "scrum up" some more cherries.


BACK TO THE VOTES

Rob C. (votes Alicia): I'm a little uneasy about this vote tonight, but if everything goes through, I have a feeling next time I see you, there's going to be a big finger wagging in my face. TIP TO FUTURE SURVIVORS...IF YOU BEGIN YOUR VOTE WITH, "I'M A BIT UNEASY ABOUT THIS VOTE," YOU'RE SCREWED MORE THAN AMBER DURING A NIGHT ON THE TOWN!

Sue (votes Rob C.): I'm playing for the long run. It might be hard for me, but if I make it that far, I don't want a weasel playing in the game with me. Sorry.

Tom (votes Rob C.): The only reason why I'm voting against you is because in the alliance game, you're the bedhopper. You hop from here to there and everywhere. I felt like I couldn't trust you because of the way you played the game the last time. I couldn't stand the bedhopping. But, other than that, you're a great guy and I'll see ya. Maybe, maybe not. (PUTS VOTE IN VASE, PAUSES). Also, you're a very smart man. Very smart. You play the game well.

Markopolo's note: Personally, I think Tom is much more concerned about him bedhopping into Amber's end.

Alicia (votes Rob C.): Rob C, you're a great guy, and you're really funny. You bring a lot of comic relief to our tribe. But coming to tribal council isn't very funny. And I think we need from here on out, is a little more seriousness.

Rob M. (votes Rob C.): I saw you on the Amazon and I gotta tell you, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Listen buddy, this isn't personal. It's business. Plus, this island's big enough for only one Rob. See ya later.

Amber (votes Rob C.): I know you've been the mastermind of Amazon, and I can't give you the opportunity to be the mastermind of All star. Sorry.


Markopolo's note: Everyone is pretty nice to Rob C, and they should. They are treating him with the respect of a past winner. If Mogo Mogo had been to TC, they would have voted off Richard the same way -- out of respect.


---------------------------------
TATTOO YOU
---------------------------------

Clip description: With nothing but time to spare, Boston Rob, Amber and Big Tom used their creativity to get through the slow day. How did they do it? Find out now.

Markopolo's note: This clip is funny. We see Amber actually talk and make a statement worth hearing. READ BELOW! It's also OBVIOUS that Amber, Tom and Robfather get along very well.


(AMBER IS DRAWING ON A TREE STUMP WITH TOM AND ROBFATHER WATCHING)

Tom (to Amber): Is that a funky monkey? What the hell is it?

Rob M: I think it's a lizard?

Tom: A Lizard? Let's see.

Amber (confessional): We were really bored. It was a really long day. (AND ROBFATHER LASTS FOR 10, MAYBE 15 SECONDS). So we decided, let's make Chapera tattoos.

(AMBER DRAWS ON TOM)

Tom: Oh my God, that hurts. (NOW WE KNOW WHY THEY LEFT THIS CLIP OUT OF THE SHOW...HOW DIRTY!)

Amber (confessional): I mean, there's not a dull moment in this tribe. We're never sad. We're not letting that happen this time. I'm not letting that happen this time. (FIRST AGGRESSIVE THING AMBER HAS SAID, EVER).

(SHOT OF ROBFATHER LYING DOWN)

Robfather (confessional): I'm having fun. I'm having more fun on Survivor this time than I ever had in the past.

(AMBER DRAWS ON ROBFATHER)

Robfather (to Tom): Tommy, did it hurt this bad when you got it done??

(THAT'S IT! CALL THE FCC! LET'S HAVE A CONGRESSIONAL HEARING. THIS CLIP IS DISGUSTING!)

Robfather: I'm going to need a shot of whiskey. The pain is a little tough. (C'MON, IT'S NOT LIKE SUE IS "DRAWING" ON YOU?)

Robfather (confessional): Downtime is probably one of the worst things that can happen to you when you're out here playing Survivor. You get a day or two days off. People get stir crazy, because people need an opportunity to think -- something you don't want people doing, if you're trying to run a good game. As I am.

(SHOTS OF ROBFATHER DRAWING ON AMBER)

Amber (to Tom and Robfather): Now what?

Robfather: That was good for about 15 minutes.

Tom (getting into hammock): Alright, let me just think of something else here.




---------------------------------
ROB C IS WORRIED
---------------------------------

Markopolo's note: Rob C is a smart player, but in this clip, he is absolutely crazy. I haven't seen someone this paranoid since Pete the Pelican got within 20 feet of Osten.


Rob C (confessional): I claim to be an observant player, and I thought it was going to be open season for alliances when we got back from the challenge in this Survivor All-Star. And I thought there would be more alliance making here than in a normal game. But it doesn't seem like anybody's interested in doing that. This is sort of like a lousy summer vacation that we're on, running around just looking for food, talking about God knows what (HOW ABOUT THAT "EXCITING" PASSION MOVIE COMING SOON?). But it doesn't seem like there's a game being played here.

I still don't feel like the tribe feels like we're going to tribal council. Nobody is saying, wow, we're losing somebody tonight. Wow, the adventure's ending for somebody tonight. (THEY JUST FEEL SORRY FOR YOU, MAN)

And because I haven't heard anybody say that, it makes me think there's a chance it could be me, because I haven't heard anybody saying it. (THAT'S WHY TOM THINKS YOU'RE A SMART ONE!)

But, on the other hand, maybe no one's saying it. And if that's the case, what is going on here? What are these people doing? We're a third through a 39-day game and still no mention of alliances?

I don't get it. (THEY WERE MAKING THEM WHILE YOU WERE MAKING SANDCASTLES)

CUT

It's possible that I am over thinking (OVER THINKING AT CHAPERA? NAW, NOT POSSIBLE).

And my mind can get me in trouble. It has in the past. I'm just worried that maybe Rob is deceiving me. I read some books on psychology before I came out here. (PROVING ONCE AGAIN THAT READING IS USELESS, BUT WATCHING SURVIVOR AND HERBAL ESSENCE BEING SCRUBBED ON A HOT GIRL IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT).

A paranoid person tends to be paranoid about lying if they in fact are a liar. And as a person whos told many lies in this game, it's my nature to think that people that talk to me, tend to be dishonest.

So it's a double-edged sword to play this game in a dishonest way. Because you tend to think that the people you talk to are being dishonest to you back.

CUT

One classic Survivor mistake is to force the issue on alliances too early in the game. Although it's Day 12, the game has really just begun here at Chapera. So to start going up to every person (and saying) "how are you going to vote? How are you going to vote?" It really could force the issue of myself getting voted out for overplaying the game.

So I need to be very careful on what I am going to do. I think if I get Boston Rob alone again, I'm going to ask him, do you Amber is really going to vote out Alicia tonight? (WRONG QUESTION, THE CORRECT QUESTION WAS, "ROBFATHER, ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO TELL AMBER TO VOTE OUT ALICIA?")

Or go up to Big Tom and ask, is there a chance that I might go tonight?

I like to play a little of the role of I've concerned with myself even though I actually am. Because I look for that reassurance in people. I look for things when people say to me, "Tomorrow we're going to fishing. Or when we get back tonight... Because if they know, in their mind, that I'm not going to be back they wouldn't say those things.

And Boston Rob did ask me to go fishing tomorrow night. (HE MEANT SLEEPING WITH FISHIES!).

(IT'S OBVIOUS ROB C. LOOKS UP TO ROBFATHER AND WANTS ROBFATHER TO BE HIS FRIEND. AWWWW.)

And I'm going to ask him if we can do something else later on. I dunno. I'm worried, because it's tribal council. And the game could be over for me. And I want nothing more than to win this game. So even though there's a chance I might get voted out tonight, I'm a nervous wreck.


---------------------------------
BOSTON ROB EXPLAINS IT ALL
---------------------------------

Clip description: Boston Rob explains that there is only room for one Rob on SURVIVOR: ALL STARS.

Markopolo's note: Surprise! Robfather is a complete asshole. He has too big of an ego to admit Rob C was a threat (though he did in his TC vote). I do believe that he is much smarter than he lets on, though.


Robfather (confessional): Rob Cesternino is the funniest person he knows. (SMILES, PAUSE, LAUGHS)

I mean, I dunno. The kid cracks himself up. Doesn't he? And he makes a game of it. But it's killer. It's painful to listen to Cesternino talk. That's how obvious everything he does is. I mean he probably read like five psychology books before he got out here (HEY, HOW DID YOU KNOW?)

And he's using the examples from the book, the textbook, on the tribe. And I mean, people like Alicia and Big Tom noticing, cmon dude. (TOM MUST HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS TAKEN FROM A JERRY SPRINGER EPISODE) You're not too smooth.

CUT

I don't consider Rob Cesternino a threat at all. But there is the potential there for him to screw things up for me. So before he has that opportunity, I wanna get rid of him.

CUT

This game, this time around, is completely different. When you know the other people involved, it's completely different than playing with a bunch of strangers. I think it's infinitely harder, to tell you the truth. Because people already have preconceived notions about you. About how you play the game.

To overcome something like that, in my case, or anybody's case, makes it a lot more difficult.

So that's why I went into this with the mentality, let's just win as much as we can.

And now, even that, I'm second-guessing that. Because if we win so many, and all of a sudden they merge us together, then maybe everybody that's been getting their asses kicked all the time will join up against us and take us out one at a time. Then it seems like it's all for nothing.


---------------------------------
ROB THE DAY AFTER
---------------------------------

Markopolo's note: It sounds like Rob C was screwed over by his two best friends -- Sue and Tom! Too bad this is a disappointing clip with few jokes and no attacks on the RobFather.


Rob C (Day-after interview): I knew coming into this game that I had a big challenge ahead of me to try and differentiate myself from what people saw of me on television. But in my time on the island, I don't think I did a good job of trying to tell people that what they saw on television wasn't what they had on the tribe.

And as much as I tried to be nice to everybody and do what everybody asked and tried to be everybody's friend instead of scheme and plot to a degree that everybody noticed what was going on -- in the meantime, I guess I let my guard down, and was seen as too much of a threat and taken out by the tribe.

CUT

I know the game well enough that I could play it a bunch of different ways. The way I played it in the Amazon worked best for that particular scenario. The way I played it here, I still feel was the right way to play for this scenario.

I just don't think there's anything I could have done differently.

HOW ABOUT BREAKING UP ROB AND AMBER LIKE WE ALL WANTED YOU TO? AT LEAST YOU COULD HAVE GONE OUT WITH A BANG. SPEAKING OF BANGS, MAYBE YOU COULD HAVE BANGED SUE, AND PRETENDED SHE WAS MARISSA'S MILFY MOM ON THE OC?

SPEAKING OF OC, ISN'T ROB C A TOTAL REPLICA OF SETH COHEN? (MINUS HAVING TWO WOMEN OF COURSE)

I was really here to play the game again. The money was never really a factor. The money was sort of an afterthought which would have been nice. But this was one more chance to come and play Survivor and unfortunately I didn't have the shot that I hoped for.

Has the game escalated? Well, I didn't see it coming, so maybe there are players who have taken it to the next level. (EHHHH, PROBABLY NOT).

I wasn't expecting the amount of lying that was going on that early.

CUT

I was actually surprised that it was a unanimous vote. I didn't think that Sue Hawk would vote for me. I thought her and I were actually quite close. I didn't think that Big Tom would vote for me. And I am kicking myself, because I was going to ask Big Tom, man to man, would you tell me if it was going to be me.

But even if I had known, there was nothing I could have done about it. And they were probably smart not to tell me, because they did kind of beat me at my own game. I didnt know that I was going to be kicked out of the tribe.


Had I had that information, I might have been able to do something with it, but I was a little surprised that people like Tom and Sue, people that I had honest relationships with, didnt have the..., didn't find it necessary to give me a sign or a hint. So I guess people really are playing the game. I don't know what convinced them that they needed to get rid of me (COUGH::ROBFATHER'S DECREE::COUGH)

Maybe there was an alliance I didn't see.

CUT

I think that by voting me out, I think the tribe loses a number of things, starting with I'm an asset in the challenges. I may not be the biggest guy, but I always give it my all. Especially in the mental challenges. We would not have won the reward challenge on Day 10 with the boxes, if I had not been on the tribe.

CUT (WHY DID THEY CUT HIS EXPLANATION???)

Being a fan of Survivor and being able to not only play the game, but come back and play an All-Star version of the game, was really the ultimate thrill. And it really was a great experience. My only regret was that I didn't get a chance to go up against Rich Hatch in the game. And I didn't have a chance to go head-to-head with Colby or Ethan or some of the other players I never got to meet in the game.

I did have the opportunity to spend 12 days with five All-Star survivors, but it does feel a little of regret that I didn't get to go up against all the All-Star survivors.

But I guess it's better to have played Survivor All-Stars and lost than to never play Survivor All-Stars at all.


---------------------------------
ROB'S FINAL WORDS
---------------------------------

Markopolo's note: Rob C says that Tom is going to go far.

It was an incredible feeling to get the chance to come play Survivor: All-Stars again. I would have like to have played the game longer, but it's just incredible to be selected as one of the all-time elite Survivor players.

CUT

It was very special to get a chance to come out here and compete with some of the greatest Survivor players of all time. It's just sad to me that I didn't get an opportunity to go up against the best of them, especially Richard Hatch.

CUT

I don't think I really learned anything new about myself in the 12 days I was out here. I learned a little bit more of what my body can take as far as punishment goes, but I feel great right now. I feel about as good as I did the first day I was out here. So, I think that the tribe was foolish to get rid of me, because I think I could still be an asset.

CUT

Right now, it's a little bit of a humbling experience. I thought that I might be, in fact, the greatest Survivor player to every play. But it's hard to come in to play Survivor with people that already know your strengths and weaknesses. If these were 16 or 18 strangers, I am sure that I would still be in the game, but people knew what I did last time too well, and I was a victim of my own success, I think.

CUT

Apparently, the player got played, but I think it was for the wrong reasons.

CUT

I don't know if my tribe is going to live to regret my early demise, but I have a feeling that nobody from my tribe, maybe Big Tom, is going to have a lot of success in this game.

CUT

The biggest disappointment for me is not getting to play the game. I want to play Survivor: that was what I wanted to do in the first place; that's why I came back again. I wanted to have my chance to prove that I was the best Survivor player, but being taken out this early and not exactly knowing the reasons why I was taken out. I don't think I had gotten in any fights with anybody. I didn't ruffle any feathers. I thought I was a help around camp. From what I know right now, I think the only reason I was taken out is because of my past reputation.

CUT

Umm, right now, I don't think I have really hard feelings against the guys. Alicia and Amber I was annoyed with from before we came to tribal council, and I don't feel any different about them either way, but Sue and Big Tom and, I'm sure, Boston Rob, will end up throwing a few back, But he did shake my hand and he gave me his word on that. So, it's a little early in the game to be breaking that kind of word, I thought.

It just goes to show you that all the stops are pulled out on the All-Star.

Survivor INSIDER Transcript - Episode 5

TRIBAL COUNCIL VOTES

Markopolo's note: Fascinating votes tonight. Shii Ann was probably in an alliance with Rich (or wanted one). There is no anger towards Rich at all for the Susan thing (I think this is important to note when she goes crazy next week). It seems he just tried to form alliances with too many people. And, he doesn't think he was going to go (see FINAL WORDS at the end where he admits that!) It also appears he was scrambling like crazy in the minutes up to tribal council.


Ethan (votes Rich): Hopefully this will close that Hatch. He causes too much trouble. It's scary. Talks to too many people. Stirs too much stuff up. It's time to get you out of here.

Shii (votes Rich Hatch): What a good team we would have made. Too bad for you that you were too duplicitous for anyone to trust. I'm sorry but you made your own grave and now you have to lie in it. Sorry Rich, I tried to save you.


MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Survivor fans lost out on a truly hateable alliance -- Shii and Rich. Add Susan and Rob C and it would have been awesome.


Richard (votes Colby): So bad. Yes, it does come to this. I certainly thought we could have taken it really far in this game. But that shifting and swaying today was pretty obvious. And it definitely isn't going to suit me to have you wandering back and forth between teams. You had a great time. You really could have trusted me. I was on your side. I know that's hard to believe but it's true. It's kind of the way I play. Good luck.

Jerri (votes Rich): Wow! All I gotta say is the last hour before we got here, I've never seen somebody scramble about so frantically in my entire life. You showed me how truly evil you are in this game. And that to me is a huge threat.

Lex (votes Rich): Well, it looks like you're a wandering pony after all. In this game, you're all played out. See ya on the other side, man.

Kathy (votes Hatch): Hatch, you old coot. You talked about trust and I never felt it. You talked about loyalty and you never showed it (laughs). I know you were working deals on both sides. From a lot of tribe people, they told me all about it. So I think you have the Final three worked out in several different ways. Too bad, too, because I liked ya. You fell to the realtor. Have fun on the outside. See ya!


MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: I find it surprising that Kathy doesn't seem to be upset at Rich for the "Sue incident."


Colby (votes Hatch): (SMILES) Hatch, you're a hell of a player. And you almost had me convinced that I could trust ya. But my gut told me not to. I'm not going to. And tonight, it's either me or you going home. Best of luck.


MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Colby still has the same handwriting. You can notice it so easily. Even Ethan changed his handwriting throughout Africa. And whats with stealing Lexs Go with your gut strategy? If I were Lex, I would vote him out for creative copyright infringement.


-----------------------
RICHARD'S TAKE
-----------------------

Clip description: Watch the always opinionated and confident Richard Hatch describe the day's events when Mogo Mogo takes on new members.

Markopolo's note: Richard is hilarious! He makes fun of Probst! It's great. There are also a few bits of spoiler info. Read the last two paragraphs for info about the Lex-Tom-Ethan alliance.


Richard (confessional): The challenge yesterday prize was, when we found out about it, a Hawaiian spear and some fish hooks. It kinda sounded good, and then the surprise was that the losing team was going to be dissolved. So that was interesting to think about. And I was happy because, it's game on. Ooh, good. Game. Because I'm exhausted. This game is long. Cool, something's happening. That gets my energy going.

Probst, typical, "What about you Hatch, what's more important: Keeping the tribe together or the Hawaiian sling?"

(Sarcastic tone) Oh Jeff, of course keeping the tribe together. What else could be more important than that?

How stupid. Obviously the Hawaiian sling was more important.

And that damn thing is not that valuable without fins. So it's just ticking me off. Still getting fish, but it's not much better than the tools I've already concocted. You really just got to swim up on the fish and you can't do it well without fins. So, ya know, we have it, but still got to work your butt off in ways that I didn't expect. I was hoping it would work better, but I need fins. Without fins, I can't move through the water. I'm big.

CUT

Yeah, we thought we had a shot. Those other two rafts looked clunky and wide and square. Ours was a streamlined banana.

HE'S STILL THINKING ABOUT LONG BANANAS.

I just had to get those guys comfortable riding the big banana. And they did.

WHERE'S THE FCC!? SOMEONE CALL THEM IMMEDIATELY!

And we won.

CUT

As soon as we won the reward challenge and made it in with our raft way before (the others), we stood on the mat and thought, OK, which tribe is going to lose? And we looked, and we could tell which one was behind. So, who do we want?

And we wanted Ethan so we could get rid of him, because we can't compete against him. Do I buy that everyone's in on that? Eh, I'm not sure. You know, Lex and Ethan are very close, and if there's some way that they could build some kind of group to keep from us getting rid of them, I think they would do that.

But I'll do my best to make sure, I mean I don't really care too much about, well I dunno. Ethan does need to go, because he's got strong ties. Lex needs to go because he has strong ties. Tom, too. They just need to go, because they are going to be so much trouble later.


-----------------------
RICH THE DAY AFTER
-----------------------

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Richard insults the way the game is being played. He says people are focused only on getting rid of past winners and threats and not actual game play. He mocks people for still caring about morals and emotions. But he shows a sensitive side, too. And he actually gives props to Rob Cesternino.


Rich (day-after interview): You know, believe it or not, I'm not that competitive. (EVEN AFTER THE GAME, RICH IS STILL BS'ING ON CAMERA.)

So coming into the game, I wasn't -- coming into the second game, Survivor All-Star, I wasn't gunning for anybody in particular. Nor was I determined to show people that I could do it the way I did it the first time. I knew I couldn't do it the same way, because it was a different game.

It was obviously more of a different game than I was aware of because I'm out. I'm out fifth. But so be it. It's the game. It was interesting.

There's a lot less finesse. In the original Survivor, I had a gameplan and I didn't know what to expect. But in preparing, I figured out what options were available and did obviously quite well. In the second Survivor, you would think that people are prepared to play the game, but ironically, there aren't.

And I'm not saying that out of bitterness for being voted out. (YEAH YOU ARE)

I was outplayed. It's great. But the game, from my perspective, isn't being played. There's all kinds of discussion about morality still. And all kinds of emotion and all of this stuff that has nothing to do with playing Survivor. People's personal battles and whether or not they should be deceitful.

It sounds...it's just absolutely boring to me, and inane in the eighth iteration of the game, the All-Star version.

For me it's not sad. It's a game that's not being played the way I wished it could be played.

RICHARD CONTINUES TO WHINE, WHINE AND WHINE


SPEAKING OF WHICH...HERE'S THE BIGGEST WHINERS IN SURVIVOR HISTORY IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

Jessie (S3 Africa): She's dying of thirst, yet she refuses to drink the feces-infested water. She obviously needed some pointers from Sue and Rudy.

Greg (S1 Borneo): I'm so smart; I went to Harvard; but I don't want to form alliances and play a game because that would be immoral.

Kimmi (S2 Outback): "Save the chickens." Every time I see her, I feel like going to KFC. Mmmmn KFC. (Why can't they be open 24 hours?)

Lex (S3 Africa): "Who voted for me? I am going to hunt them down!" -- Lex, please! So you got one vote? Big deal! Your "smoking out the snake" witch hunt booted one of the only redeeming characters in Africa, Kelly G.

Rotu 4 (S4 Marquesas): Complained about Neleh and Pappy actually playing the game (they didn't play much, but they did at a crucial junction). They screwed Neleh out of $900,000 and gave the money to the least memorable player ever.

Osten (S7 Pearl Islands): So much muscle, so little heart.

Andrew (S7 Pearl Islands): "The Outcasts ruined the game for me." Sorry, pal, but you had an alliance DEAL with Rupert that you left on the table. Case dismissed.

Batty Granny Janny (S5 Thailand): Kept crying when animals died. How did we ever make it through that garbage season?

JoAnna and Jeanne (S6 Amazon): We don't like Heidi and Jenna much either, but damn they are hot, and if they lasted longer than you, fine by us. We might not have gotten Playboy if they had been voted out earlier (not that I would ever buy it or have multiple subscriptions). Halllaalooooooaaaa!

Shawna (S6 Amazon): Complains about wanting to leave. Then Alex shows up, and all is well. Proving that women actually do need men! Of course, men need women too much, but that's another problem and another transcript.

Stacey Stillman (S1 Borneo): "They voted out their bug-eating hero, instead of that old man." (Who actually happens to be a true American hero). Stacey sued Survivor and Mark Burnett and that allowed reporter Peter Lance to stir up enough controversy to write a book called the StingRay.


By the way, the latest book sales according to the unbiased Markopolo book meter:

Stingray, Peter Lance, 250 sold, now selling for 45 cents at local thrift shops.

The Spoiler, ChillOne, he bought 11 copies, his grandmother bought 4, still being offered on his web site (only 44,985 copies left!!)

Sleek, the Ultimate Spoiler, Sleek28, on sale in May as soon as he can get his fellow third graders to do the artwork (they might make the quantum leap from crayons to colored pencils).


BACK TO THE TRANSCRIPT


Rich (day-after): Even if I didn't win. I went into the game with guns blaring, ready to play the game and talking my smack like I typically do about wanting to win. Boy it was a much tougher game and it took its toll on me a lot earlier physically and mentally. For whatever reasons. Maybe because it wasn't new.

CUT

I get more of a sense of a lack of capacity for playing the game. Where they're out there and they're just focused, "OK, let's get rid of the winners. OK, now let's get rid of the other people -- ones that look threatening like Rob Cesternino." Ya know, five people have left the game as of this point, and four of those five were winners, no three of those five were winners and one was Rob Cesternino. Ya know there's a pattern there.

(WOW, RICH GIVING CREDIT TO ROB C? AND EVERYONE THOUGHT HE WAS ANGRY WHEN PROBST CALLED ROB C THE BEST PLAYER.)

CUT

As much as I think someone is smart to take me out, I think they could play smarter to use me to get them farther. And what I mean by hack is I think somebody gets something in their mind and just do it regardless of the consequences and they don't understand what benefits they lose by doing it.

Not just in me, but there's just a lack of sophistication in the way the game's being played that I thought might be there, given that people already had a chance to win the game. Yet, I shouldn't have expected it to be a better level of playing because I watched the earlier games and thought, what's wrong with these people? Why haven't they watched the earlier shows and played better then. So, so be it.

CUT

I came into the All-Star version playing to win. Did I think I was going to win, no I wasn't sure. Did I feel like I had the biggest target of anyone? Absolutely. Do I think people understand who I am? Absolutely not. All of these players, who I've met at one point or another, still don't know me. And think of me as this weasel, this monster, this game player, this guy that I am playing the game that they saw. But it isn't me.

In fact, one of the main comments I got from most of the people who I interacted with during the All-Star version was, "Huh, boy I had a really different perspective of who you were." Meaning they came to know a different side of me. The kind of side you would get to know if you spent any time with me. Even in the game, that's more who I am than just game player.

But certainly, I am a capable game player who you should watch your back around.

That's the game. So they were right to get rid of me, because I certainly would have undermined anything they did to get to the end, as was needed. But I would have done it with style at some point. I think.

But anyway. Do I think I had a chance of winning? Yeah, sure. Even with a huge target, I guess I still felt somewhat capable. And I figured out if I were in for long enough, maybe one more tribal council, I could have blended and stirred up stuff with other people. And maybe I could have gotten through.

But people weren't having that. People were really clear about who they wanted out. I think. I don't know. We'll see on the show.


-----------------------
JERRI'S HAPPY
-----------------------

Clip description: Be there when Jerri explains her true feelings after her Saboga tribe is dissolved.

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Jerri thinks she can make inroads in Mogo Mogo. She felt "alone" over at Saboga (Maybe she was the next to go?). She has a good friendship with Lex.


Jerri (confessional): As I was sitting on the platform watching us lose and everyone kicking our butt, I started thinking about the benefits of Mogo Mogo winning and I felt very excited at the idea when we did officially lose and Mogo Mogo won and I got picked. I was very, very happy. I thought I was going to explode I was so happy. I really, really wanted to get out of Saboga. I really did. I wasn't happy over there.

They were very excited that I was going to be a part of their tribe. This tribe is just a completely different situation. Their shelter is amazing. It's a little treehouse. It's totally cute. And they've got such a great setup, their fire. They've just everything together. It just seems like a home. Everyone's very laid-back and napping and pretty much doing whatever they want. And a big reason why there isn't as much pressure in Mogo Mogo is that they haven't gone to tribal council. So they're not feeling the pressure of the game the way we did.

It's a lot less intense right now.

CUT

From what I can tell, everyone seems to be taking their time to roll into the gameplay of all of this. Even our tribe, Saboga, did the same thing, we didn't immediately discuss strategy, we didn't immediately discuss alliances. It was just more of a slow progression, a slow thought process of what was going on and who was involved.

And that's what I think is making this so different is that people aren't rushing to anything. From what I can tell, this is still a pretty open tribe as far as alliances. There's always a danger and I could be horrifically wrong. And they took Ethan and myself and they can use us as basically sacrificial lambs. There's always that risk. But I don't know. I'm still trying to figure out the dynamic of some people. They're still quiet. They're fun and they laugh and they talk.

It's nice to be on a team where I actually have some friends.

Like Lex, he's just great. I love him to death. And I know him pretty well.

So last night we stayed up and talked about a bunch of stuff while everyone else was sleeping. And discussed our families and what we left behind. It was just nice to relate to someone on a friendship level. Cuz I was so missing that on Saboga, even though I was trying to convince myself I didn't. I really did.

I felt really alone over there.


-----------------------
RICH'S FINAL WORDS
-----------------------

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Rich admits he wanted to quit a few times early in the game and that he honestly thought Colby was going.


Rich (final words): One of the biggest things that surprised me about the entire Survivor All Stars was how tough it was. It was physically and mentally, I would say more tough than I had planned, certainly more tough than the original game I played. Mmmn Why? I'm not exactly sure. But, physically, more depleted, way, way earlier; lots of things played into that. Did I think people were playing really hard? No, I didn't think they were playing hard or well. Whoops! So much for what I thought: I'm gone!

But, interesting. I can't wait to see it. I keep saying that. I can't wait to see what really was going on. I came to Tribal Council tonight really thinking that Colby was going.

CUT

I've never had my torch snuffed; I've never had it put out; my torch has always remained lit.

CUT

How did it feel to have it put out? Okay. It felt okay. Maybe it was my time. I like the shock of it. I like that I played. My gosh, this last afternoon before Tribal Council, it was running from one spot to another trying to catch that conversation, talk to this person about that, trying to instill in whoever I thought I was going to be close to that they could count on me. But I obviously made some errors. Many of them!

CUT

I think the second time around, the biggest difference for me was probably the lack of uh newness, kind of knowing what the game is, kind of knowing the intensity of the living conditions. You're in them, and it's tough. It's very difficult. I found myself wanting out of the game a few times really, really early on. I kicked myself in the butt and said, "What the hell are you talking about? You've got a check waiting for you." Surprise, surprise! No, I don't! (FAKE CRIES AND LAUGHS)

CUT

But still, fun game! Fun game! I would do Survivor...now I'm lying. I was going to say I'd do a third, fourth and fifth time, yeah, right! Initially, when you're at home and you're thinking about the game, and you've had some time, and you haven't been out camping, you're thinking, "Yeah, let me back in again!" And an opportunity to win some money. But when you get in it, it's pretty tough.


CUT

Did I learn anything on Survivor about me or anything meaningful in life, and blah blah blah? No. (LAUGHS) Absofreakinlutely not!



-----------------------
TRIBAL CHECKERS
-----------------------

Clip description: While their tribe sleeps, Rob and Amber take the opportunity to play a game of checkers, and Amber reveals her strategy. Meanwhile, over at Mogo Mogo, Lex is getting on Richard's nerves.

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Isn't it interesting that they've shown a lot of clips of Amber talking in the past two episodes? It's like she's actually playing the game! Or at least the editing tries to tell us that.

(AT CHAPERA, SHOT OF HALF-FILLED WHISKEY BOTTLE)

(ALICIA, SUE AND TOM ARE SLEEPING)

Amber (To Rob): I think I am going to be the queen of checkers out here.

(AMBER CAPTURES A ROB PIECE -- NO, NOT THAT TYPE OF PIECE YOU SICK PEOPLE)

Rob: Aw man.

Amber (confessional): This is the All-Star. It's so much hardcore than it was the first time around. You can make many alliances in this game. But you only need to stand true to one. I need to save my butt.


(AT MOGO MOGO, SHOTS OF FISH BURNING, TRIBE IS EATING -- ETHAN IS AT FAR RIGHT, LEX IS NEXT TO HIM, THEN COLBY, SHII ANN, KATHY AND RICHARD)


Rich (to tribe): Look at that pot!

Jerri (off camera)?? Wow, I've never seen so much fish!

(TRIBE STUFFING THEIR FACES)

Rich: Good in my frickin mouth. Yum.

Lex (holds up whiskey): To our tribe. To our new family.

Richard (confessional): If Lex says, "welcome to our family" one more time I am going to puke. What the hell, family? This is a game of Survivor. Get rid of all these idiots around you. That's the point.

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: Besides trying to form 1,000 alliances, here's a good point where Rich screwed up. Survivor is still like high school and human nature, despite it being an All-Star version. It's like a reunion and he wasn't interested in that. It might have hurt his chances to form alliances.


Rich (confessional): Welcome to our family. (SHOT OF LEX HANDING WHISKEY BOTTLE TO ETHAN) And he means it, that's the worst part.

Shii Ann (drinks whiskey): That's good!

ROARS AND CHEERS

(RICH LOOKS ON SULLEN)

Rich (confessional): Camaraderie, schmaderie.


----------------------------
KATHY AND LEX MAKE A PACT
-----------------------------

Clip description: Feeling vulnerable with new, astute game players in their tribe, Kathy and Lex join forces and agree on an alliance. Will they remain true to their word?

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: It's VERY hard to hear their whispering. I tried my best to make out what they said.


Lex (confessional): The only thing I would like to achieve today is a nice, in-depth conversation with Kathy. Kind of get our game face back on.

(LEX AND KATHY IN DEEP WATER)

Kathy: (inaudible) What I was saying is that Hatch is just trying to mix things up.

Lex: (First part inaudible). I'm all ears.

Kathy: So Hatch at one point wanted me and Shii to take you out. He said, "I have this great plan. Let's get rid of Lex." Cuz you're a (??) player and you play things too close to your chest.

Lex (confessional): I would have been disappointed if Richard hadn't talk about that or tried that. I would have almost been insulted. There's something flattering about somebody wanting to get rid of you because they think you're diabolical. They think you're too good of a player.

Kathy: So that's why I just wanted to let you know.

CUT

Kathy: I'll come to you. I'll come to you when something gets weird.

Kathy (confessional): Lex and I made a little bit of a pact. You watch over me, I'll watch over you. But I'm playing the game much harder than I did last time.

Kathy (to Lex): So I just hope that our conversations. I just want to know what's going on.

Lex: OK

Kathy: Cuz I think you are (owed?) and I'd much rather see you (do well?)

Lex: I agree.

Kathy: Exactly

Lex (confessional): Kathy and I agreed that we are on the same page about everything. We figured that the power of two is better than the power of just one.

-----------------------------
CHAPERA STATE OF MIND
-----------------------------

Clip description: The morning after Rob Cesternino was voted out of the tribe, Chapera was feeling at the top of their game. Watch this to find out why.

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: The site said this clip was 5 minutes long, but it was only 1:01.


Rob M (to Susan): Is it just me, or does it seem a lot more calm today?

Susan: It's a lot nicer since Rob's gone. Its Day 13 and we have officially made it a third of the way.

Rob: This is my 54th day of playing Survivor in the last 18 months.

Susan: I know.

Rob (confessional): Cesternino's gone now so the whole vibe around camp is a lot calmer. You know he's so excited about everything. Hes got to be the first one to the treemail. First one to the .. First one to the ... See what he did, he's got me talking like him now!


--------------------------------------
BONUS CHAPTERS FROM EPISODE 4
--------------------------------------

MARKOPOLO'S NOTE: I don't know when these were added, but they are from the past week. Rob C is in a studio, does impressions of his tribe and Jeff Probst (hilarious) and makes comments. The impressions are GREAT!



ROB C'S IMPRESSIONS

Rob C (impersonating Boston Rob): Hey, what's going on, I'm Boston Rob. I'm hehr. I'm gonna say that I'm betteh than the other Rob. That he thinks he's smarteh than me. And he thinks he's a better playeh. But he can't get this piece of ass like Ambeh. That she's my girlfriend and I don't care if I win the game because I get to hang out with Ambeh!

HILARIOUS!!!!!!!

Rob C (impersonating Tom): Well, old Boston Rob, he's got himself a girfrien' And that'z all well N' good, if yer back home, but weer out heer on Survivure. And I know I got the wife back home. And I came on Survivor to get away from my wife.

Rob C (impersonating Susan): Oh Big Tom, he's so annoying. I think he's so stupid that if Big Tom was lying on the side of the road, dying of thirst, that I wouldn't give him a drink of water or a snack or anything else eh.

HILARIOUS!

Rob C (impersonating Alicia): (WAGS FINGER) Oh Sue, no you didn't (WAGS FINGER). You did NOT just go there with the drink of water speech. Oh no do not tell me you just did that. Oh no.


Rob C: Hey guys, let's all be reasonable here. We're a tribe of six people. And maybe we should vote out this boyfriend and girlfriend here. Amber, do you have something to say about that?

(SITS SILENT FOR 10 SECONDS, CAMERAMAN LAUGHS IN THE BACKGROUND).

That's my Amber impression.

CUT

Cameraman: You've got to do Jeff.

Rob C: OK

Cameraman: Cuz you do Jeff so well.

Rob C (impersonating Jeff Probst): Guys, welcome back to tribal council. Rob C., you were the smartest player not to win, do you think that's something that can help you (does head movements and hand movements back and forth) in this game or is it something that the other players say, "Hey we gotta get rid of this guy." (PUTS FACE ON CHIN AND LEANS DOWN)

LAUGHTER FROM CAMERAMEN

Cameraman: And your final parting words.

Rob C: 0-for-2, maybe third time's the charm.


SMARTEST PLAYER TO NEVER WIN

Rob (from studio): I did trust Boston Rob, I wasn't going to bet my life on it. But at the same point, that was the best deal I had. It didn't make a lot of sense to me that he was going to approach me, make this alliance and betray me. It worked out for him, but it didn't seem like something that was going to be a great plan.

The problem was that Amber was so attached to Rob, that if it weren't for her, Big Tom, myself and Boston Rob probably would have been a three-person alliance to vote out Alicia and vote out Sue.

But now, just like I got my buddies and their stupid girlfriends who screw everything up. My buddy in the game, he gets a girlfriend, and he goes, "Uh Uh Uh I gotta keep the other gehrls around." It did come back to haunt me that I couldn't separate Boston Rob and Amber.

It was both a blessing and a curse to be labeled the best player never to win the game.

It was a blessing that it got me a ticket to come back and compete on All-Stars. But it was a curse in that all the other Survivors were mad because they didn't win and they all said, "Well, I'm smarteh than this guy" (doing Boston Rob impression again).

So it was a problem, because the other players had something to prove and they kinda ganged up on me.



BOSTON ROB AND A-ROD

Clip description: Rob C. recalls his shock at Tribal Council and explains what Boston Rob and A-Rod have in common.

Rob (from studio): Last night at tribal council I was just very disappointed that, ya know, I really thought I had a good chance. I said, if I can get through this one vote, I know I can go all the way to the end. And I saw the one Rob C come up and I said, OK OK, and then I saw the second and I went (shakes his fists and head angrily). There's no point in hiding anything when you get to tribal council. The votes are already cast, you can't change them. Trust me I wish I could. It was just disappointed. I thought I was going to win survivor all star. Last time I almost did it. This time I was going to do it. I'm going to take it home. And it didn't happen that way. I think I was a victim of everyone being afraid.

CUT

Most of the things that people don't get to see on Survivor really have very little to do with the impact of the game. But there are some things like conversations that rub people the wrong way and my minor bondings that happen that you don't get to see. And it's hard getting it all edited down. And uh, sometimes you're sitting at home and wondering, how did that happen? But last night was a case of I was there, and I still say, How did that happen?

CUT

Boston Rob's word is worth about as much as a Boston Red Sox A-Rod jersey these days (smug face)



ROB C. ON CONTESTANTS

Rob (from studio): I think the two people that I was the most surprised to see were Amber and Shii Ann. Shii Ann who didn't even make the jury in Thailand. And Amber, who I didn't really know much about, and I watched Survivor Australia a lot. (TRUST ME, WE DIDN'T REMEMBER HER EITHER). She didn't say anything, but this time she decided to just have a boyfriend this time around, so maybe it will work out better for her.

 

[AsyLum]

hey question

what was with the outburst at the end by susan (i think)

for the next week show...anyone got any ideas ??

 

[routemarker]

It was when they were on that beam with sue, kathy and naked rich.
It got big reaction at the Chapera beach when they got back.
Sue : I Hope they vote Richard off becausae what he did to me was absolutly uncalled for.
Rupert and others : That was Disgusting!
Rob.M : I Ran so i could battle him, i wanted to take him down.

Theres speculation that richard had an erection at that incident hence why sue is so mad.

In the US, CBS are putting warnings for the next episode "This episode may be innapropriate for younger viewers, Parental Discretion Advised"

In the US show promos have no rating (PG, M) so thers either nothing or "Parental Discretion Advised" so i suspect an M rating next week perhaps...?
Normal

Warnings

CBS are making sure they wont get in trouble after the nipple incident lol
