Episode 09

[Holly Hoffman]

Wowee. What's the fall out from such an explosive tribal council?

Where do you go from here? How have your plans changed?

Now that one idol has been played, are you scared of potentially more idols being played?

THAT SHIT CRAY.

My plans have changed in that I'm going to have to watch what I say to Pat more. I believe she is the one that swapped over. I think my problem in this game is that I've been far too trusting.

I do know this about the idols. In the challenge, Probst revealed that there are two idols in play in this game. Mine and Seans. At tribal, Sean played his idol, which had yellow Tamanaco text. He said he 'gave away' his other one. Which doesn't exist. He only got the idol after he swapped and bluffed that he had two.

So, as far as I can tell, I've got the only idol in the game. Which is delightful news. I'm so thrilled by it I almost want to tell Lindsey.

[Gina]

Also please tell me there is going to be a fanfic of this or something posted eventually. I've got to find out what the hell exactly happened in this game!

[Holly Hoffman]

In the past, jeff has written up episodes for seasons he has done. So there's definitely a chance of it happening.

[Brenda Lowe]

Talk to me about boot targets for the next round or two.

Also you say "almost" want to tell Lindsey. A of all, did you? If so, why so, and if not why not? B of all, why her? Does that mean you consider her your #1 at this point?

In fact with that crazy TC last night, some lines were definitely drawn out, some connections exposed. What was the most surprising part of the night to you? I think this might be a good time to rank down the cast in terms of closeness to you.

Well since I'm pretty positive Pat is the one that tipped off Sean, i've got to be wary of her. She definitely dropped a few points in the trust category and it will be interesting to see how our relationship unfolds from here. I'm hoping tonight she can prove her loyalty to us. I legitimately think siding with us is in her best interest in this game.

However, I'd say my closest ally went from Pat to Lindsey. Maybe my problem is that I'm too trusting in this game, but I really believe things that Lindsey says. And now since the nuTamanaco collectively dislike her, I think I've got a much better shot of beating her in the end. If I had to choose right now, I'd be at the end with Lindsey, Kim P or Sarah. And that's my goal Final 4.

And I'm not worried about the idols. I'm fairly positive I have the only idol in the game, as I outlined earlier. My only worry is trying to deal with some of the idol paranoia going on with the others. I'm torn between revealing that I have the idol and trying to manage this mess.
