The Island: Episode 7 - Discussion

Colie really thinks she is just going to get handed a key.

Did it ever occur to them that...well I dunno, Robin knows how to build a boat with her....experience with boats? o_O And to Johnny's little comment: It became a "battle of the sexes" when you decided you only wanted men on your boat (hmmm wonder what the real reason is ;))

yay ryan!!!!!!!!!

Ryan needs to take Dunbar's key.

Dunbar is the reason why Bacchus created Vevmo. and Dunbar is the reason why I'm here. =]

Lmao @ Jen and Ryan. That whole sarcastic segment just made my day.

Dunbar is the reason for my life.

Colie was a waste of space.

[quote=tjhallow;35642]Colie was a waste of space.[/quote] yeah. not real suprised that she was sent home.

lol... Dunbar is the reason why I breath

nooooooooooooooooooooo ryan.. I can't believe he just took kelly anns key... I hope he looses now!

omg wtf! he should've taken Dunbar's key!

I can't believe Ryan took KellyAnne's key. That really sucks.

"TJ drops a bombbbbbbb"

Poor Kelly Anne. She was so close.

I don't get this at all.. On the preview for the island. Don't any 1 remember seeing johnny and ev in elemination?

That was when Ev stole Johnny's key, or vice versa.

[quote=lionheart;35647]I can't believe Ryan took KellyAnne's key. That really sucks.[/quote] Yeah. Ryan really had two great reasons, probably more, to take Dunbar's key. Dunbar didn't really do anything to deserve his key, nor did he make an effort to do a mission. Ryan's a ******* for taking Kelly Anne's key, imo.

Hes' a ******* and a little shit. Kelly Anne was right when she said she was one of the few people who really earned her key. The only other current keyholders who earned them are Derrick and Johnny (the second time). I wonder if the last face-off is something that was planned, or was cooked up by production when they saw how the Family was throwing in people who already had keys and really wanted to shake up the game. I can't freaking wait for next week.

I hate to always play Devil's Advocate... but Paula has a point. Id rather not be on a boat that was built by a bunch of malnourished girls. How much do u think the heaviest girl weighs? 120lbs? Evelyn is always the exception....

Dan was just being smart. He knows he's not that good of a competitor, but that Dunbar is at least physically fit so that means he could probably easily win a challenge.

[QUOTE=tjhallow;35642]Colie was a waste of space.[/QUOTE] I strongly disagree with you. Colie is one of the two smartest people on The Island. I raised the question of gender neutral contests before following the first faceoff. I'll now raise it again and state that I believe a case can be made that the show violated the Game Show Act.

[quote=jamie27;35655]Dan was just being smart. He knows he's not that good of a competitor, but that Dunbar is at least physically fit so that means he could probably easily win a challenge.[/quote] I beg to differ. Dunbar bounced off that giant ball in the Jenn-Paula-Ashli face-off so much he might as well have stayed down. Big muscles do not necessarily mean fitness or the intelligence to use strength and stamina to your advantage. If anything, that's probably what is hindering him--thinking that anything physical will be a piece of cake, when it's really not, and then being lulled into a false sense of security.

There's a game show act? And people need to stop this nonsense with Dunbar. The guy GOT a key from Abe. ANYONE OF THOSE PEOPLE would have taken the key too. And I don't think the would have gone into a faceoff just for fun. Besides, he did win a faceoff with Paula.

I don't see Dunbar having any potential to add anything valuable to whomever gets him on their boat. Leadership is out the window, the guy can't think for himself. He hasn't really shown anyone how well he competes (having muscles and being a kick *** competitor are two completely different things). And lol @ the people *****ing about Colie's lack of contribution. What has Dunbar done for the Island now, aside from complaining about protein? Hm....

Paula made an agreement with Jenn that Jenn would get voted to stay if they she helped Paula. And even then, he was working against a team with a play half incapacitated. I still have yet to see him prove himself as a competitor in any real way, and he doesn't have the clarity of mind to stay in the game--he's letting his paranoia get the best of him.

this episode along with the season was particularly lame. I honestly have no clue if any of these people watched survivor or something to prep.

Question for you, BoSoxMole, precisely what people need to "stop this nonsense with Dunbar?"

Abe's reason for giving Dunbar the key was because he trusted him he would be a good asset to the winning boat. I've yet to see any reason to believe that he is capable of being this. And that face-off with Paula doesn't really mean anything. He didn't volunteer himself to help her, he got chosen to, and he uses "lack of food" as an excuse for his being thrown around the ball. Not only was Ashli one-legged, but the face-off basically became 4 vs 2 thanks to Paula's little negotiation. Edit: Lmao, Moonpaw beat me to the punch. Nvm then. XD
