I read somewhere online that Rob and Sandra are actually living similar to the contestants--likely not starving or anything, but with minimal shelter and supplies.
Given that they cannot win, why would they agree to this? I suppose they're receiving a salary for their participation.
To me, one of the Great Survivor Mysteries of All Time is, why the heck don't people learn to make fire? As soon as you put in your application, start trying.
And learn to fish, AND start studying edible plants, etc., etc., etc.
You're right: it's a mystery.
Then, be found out by the next person.....see where I'm going?
Yes, but consider that as the game goes on -- and more people learn the truth first hand -- the secret will eventually come out. Perhaps someone'll tell the truth upon returning from the island. Perhaps someone'll whisper the truth to a trusted ally, only to see it spread around camp -- but eventually, as more people are "in on it", it's going to come out. Maybe Miss Original-Visitor Elizabeth can play it off as "they told me to keep the secret", and maybe she can't.
But -- good or bad -- it's going to be a factor.
I was a little relieved when Kellee said she was hiding the immunity in her hair...
I thought that was pretty smart. I mean, you could go to the mall today and buy a hair tie that could potentially look like an idol. Brilliant way to disguise something valuable.
Thought last nights episode was ok - nothing to special but nice to get to know people better. Pretty large luck component at the end of immunity challenge, in my opinion - which I hate to see. I thought Rob caved to quickly trying to get Kellee to accept the challenge.
Yes, he caved in /gave her more chances. All the more reason Elizabeth should've been smart enough to say, "Give me a head start in the fire competition." He's open to negotiating.
