OFFICIAL WEBSITE & OFFICIAL PROFILES

For 39 days, 16 castaways were stranded in Asia.  Every 3 days on the island became a 1-hour show.  The first contestant eliminated pockets $2500.  Each successive eliminated contestant wins more money, through the next-to-last Survivor, who receives $100,000.  The final Survivor wins a million dollars!

Two more Chaperas, one less tribe, and a meaningless (for me, at least) disclaimer statement...

Day 13: Sea mail!

"Put on your game face for this reward you will compete.
This may change your situation and the quantities you eat.
Here are supplies to build a raft, one that four of you can race.
Tribe pride is on the line; can you keep up the pace?"

Bamboo poles and some twine are included. Rob remembers doing this, so he enlists Sue, Amber, and Alicia. Rob, Amber, and Sue test out their craft, while Tom tosses back another bottle of whiskey. "That's the best built thing since Alicia!" Sue calls him a stupid drunk. A stupid klutzy drunk who isn't funny. Tom starts to head over to christen the vessel with his whiskey. On the other hand, Sue decides to either christen the raft... or mark her territory. I'll leave it to you to decide which.

"I christen this vessel the Susie Q, in honor of me old lady Sue!"

R-CHALLENGE: Shipwrecked Raft Rescue (for fishing hooks and lines and/or a lock box clue)

The rafts are to be raced by two to the rescue of two others and a flag. First one on shore with all four members and the flag wins fishing supplies and the lock box clue. Second wins the clue (unless you're in Chapera, in which case you don't get anything). First major twist in All-Stars. "The tribe that finishes last will be dissolved." The other two tribes have a schoolyard pick of what's left of the last tribe. They will regain their personal belongings, but will lose any rewards that they might have otherwise gotten.

Mogo Mogo's hunk of laziness cut across the water with no problem, as they rescue their tribesmen first. Chapera, with the median between aesthetics and usefulness, are in a deadheat with Saboga until they rescue Alicia and Amber. They rescue their flag and come in for second place. As for Saboga... Well, Saboga is no more, as we absorb Rupert and Jenna.

Sorry, Wolvie.

Back at camp: Welcome home.

Jenna's first to be pissed, as the first 13 days in the game are basically down Tom's toilet head. Rupert, on the other hand, loves the change in venue. "Our camp was Hobo Junction. Theirs is the Taj Mahal!"

Day 14: More sea mail!

"Two new tribes, now we'll see
Whose speed and strength earn Immunity.
It's really quite simple. Capture the flag.that's it.
Winners end up with the idol, losers end up in the pit."

I-CHALLENGE: Pilfering Pirates.

You'll remember this one from the Pearl Islands, as we have the return of "The Grid". Capture 20 flags without being sent to the drink via stumble or battle bridge, and you win Immunity. Simple, right? Amber displays spectacular balancing skills, while Hatch and Shii Ann of Mogo Mogo drops himself. Ethan and Rob battle on the bridge with Chapera up, 2-0. Boston Rob takes a dive first, while Ethan takes a header.

Next battle: Hatch and Jenna. Winner, Hatch. We're tied at 3. Hatch's trousers... down. Again. Big Tom and Ethan fight it out. Ethan takes a dive, with Chapera up 17-13. After a delay of fame penalty incurred by Sue, Kathy, and Richard's penis, Colby and Boston Rob take it to the bridge. Colby hits water first. Rupert still can't make it without dropping himself. Meanwhile, Rob comes back with flag #18, and Sue gets an idea. She jumps off with Rupert, Alicia, and Big Tom, while Rob goes for #19. Amber gets #20, but before Rob can deliver a) the winning flag and b) the smackdown on Kathy's sneaky kneeling strategy.

Back at camp: Celebrating.

We're hoping Richard gets voted off, and Boston Rob's secure in his new power position. "I may not be as strong as any one of them, but I guarantee I'm tougher than every one of them. Colby... he's not as tough as you think, ladies."

"Welcome to reality."
