Episode 03 Commentary

[Ashley Underwood]

Jenna, this is Caryn, resident hater.

[Mia Galeotalanza]

Jenna, there are a lot of people here you need to be careful of. Don't trust a word any of us tell you.

[Caryn]

You can trust me, Jenna Lewis. F

[Ashley Underwood]

Um so the ambassadors think I'm the MVP of the tribe. They're not wrong...

[Caryn]

He's speaking the truth though....

He's running that tribe, no doubt about it.

[Yul Kwon]

Papa Bear is so awful at this game that it's entertaining most of the time. But sometimes it's difficult to watch, because all he does is lie. That's it. There's no master manipulation happening here. No strategy, no planning. Just lie at every chance he gets. Offering alliances to people he doesn't know, giving out and withholding information at random. It borders between fun and annoying all at the same time.

[Yul Kwon]

Also he's getting mad at Tina for lying about the idol clue, but she didn't even know she had it at the time she sent it. But he's so quick on the trigger that he goes right to Jeff (who he JUST told that he was sending HIM the clue) that Tina is a liar and needs to go.

Papa Bear is the kind of guy that I want to constantly have bad things happen to him in the game, but I don't want him to actually be voted out so I can continue to see those things happen.

[Mia Galeotalanza]

Yul is ~on point~ right now.

[Caryn]

PAPA BEAR IS LOVE, PAPA BEAR IS LIFE, HE CAUSES CHAOS, PAIN & STRIFE!

[Caryn]

Oh my gravy @ those Papa Bear confessionals

[Jenna]

You were fucking terrible.

I was though. I'M SO MAD because I was so excited for this and I failed miserably and I wish I had known about the ugly alliance in our tribe cuz then I would've done things different. I'm really not a passive player but I legit thought I was in a good spot so now I must STAB SOMEONE cuz it's already over.

[Chad]

Jenna, for next time you play. there is probably going to be a majority alliance formed, especially a couple of rounds in. And if no one is actively PMing you and trying to get your vote right before a TC, that probably means they are voting you or blindsiding you.

You were so cute and it sucks that Rai was so bad at challenges and that group of 4 formed the way it did - Richard and Ramona literally formed the "majority alliance" about 15 minutes into the game and added Sean and Hayden before they had even spoken to either of them, or anyone else for that matter. It's just bad luck for you. But you do gotta PM more, gurl.

Ironically the reason they voted you out over Stacey was because of her challenge prowess when she is basically the major reason you guys lost the challenges alol. That first one was painful. By the time she posted all the puzzle pieces, Madhesi was already pretty much done withe the puzzle. And in the second one she convinced all you guys that she would be ranked high because of her social skills and that was so wrong. LMAO

[Jenna]

Lol Stacey is the best <3

Also I guess I was trying to act like Jenna a little more than I should have. I mean I'm not really THAT much different, but I'm a little more witty and goofy. I still like being nice to people though.

Anyway enough about me, I'm already intrigued by the Papa Bear experience.

[Mia Galeotalanza]

That's another thing- just be yourself. Some people try to play the character they're given, which is fine I guess, but people have SO much more fun when they're themselves and don't worry about playing the character. More often than not, it takes away from your gameplay in a game like this.

Yeah, definitely. That's pretty much exactly what happened to me. Oh well, live and learn I guess.

I'm a little bummed though cuz based on the episode discussion threads, this looks like a really fun trainwreck group of people and my normal self would fit right in.

So did Papa Bear message Stacey or something? Is he offering to trade someone for her? I need her to escape from Rai and "thlay" the competish.

[Yul Kwon]

Papa Bear has told her that he will try to do something to save her. She's offering up any and all information he asks for. He's the LAST person she should trust in this game, but right now he's the only person offering to do something for her so she'll have to take what she can get.

One thing that's good about PB is that he will not let any opportunity rest. He doesn't plan things out - he just kind of does things as they happen. So you never have to worry about him playing it safe. He's going to act on any chances to do something Survivor-related immediately.

[Yul Kwon]

Hey, this is for you, Jenna. This is Ramona in her confessional forum answering a question from Courtney.

Stacey is going to be pinpointed by the other guys as the obvious sacrifice. And to be honest, she probably will be. And I want her on a different tribe, Kirati. I'm going to talk to Lisa to bring up the idea of us swapping Stacey in return of an inactive member of her tribe or somebody that she feels threatened by. I want Stacey to stay in this game and it's something I can use later on to try and buy me sympathy from her if I need it: "Hey, back when Jenna was voted out, you were going to be the next one to go if we lost. I talked to Lisa and sacrificed you so she would protect you and you wouldn't go home."

[Caryn]

Jeff is probably in the best position in this game right now tbh.

[Jeff Probst]

Jeff is probably in the best position in this game right now tbh.

Agreed... Ramona's been slipping and there's a strong possibility she's about to be #blindsided tonight. Either way, with the swapfuckering that's about to go down tonight someone is getting screwed. Should be an interesting turn of events.

[Caryn]

Swap at F19 or F18?
