[QUOTE=cystic;221531]Do it for the cheeseburger, Theresa![/QUOTE] You're 9 stories up & the best you can come up with is "do it for a cheeseburger"? Get the **** out! It was both hilarious & ridiculous. I loved the Toyota commercial on the break. Just as funny on tv as on the laptop. The topless wrestling did not hurt the show and I'd go as far as to pitch money into sponsor official topless wrestling tournaments. Just sayin'. At least they weren't fighting and everyone got along. The drink every time the Red team act like ********** game was a failure. I didn't expect them to be as bad as they were this episode. Brad & Tori didn't even bother trying and with every episode, Tori reminds me more of an evil soccer mom. It's amusing that the cast who are most often viewed as being the bad guys in challenges, like Bananas & Jenn are the ones stepping up and not being **** bags on this challenge. It was nice to see an episode with more of everyone goofing off and less people crying. The two week wait should be worth it when CT rolls in there.
[QUOTE=JL81790;221711]I know we'll see it in a daily tomorrow, but can we guess how the voting went down? I'm assuming (though Grey is pretty clear cut) Dan- unanimous Laurel - Luke, Abram, Cara Cara - Sarah, Laurel Brad - Camila Tori - Camila, Tyler Dunbar - Tori, Tyler, Paula? Tyler - Brad, Dunbar Camila - Brad, Tori, Paula, Dunbar So now the only people who haven't gotten a single vote to go in are Johnny and Jenn[/QUOTE] TJ said Paula was the only one on the red team to not get a single vote in this elimination.
[QUOTE=Clarke;221668]Rachel is still pretty recent thought so it wouldn't been that shocking but of course[B] Tori would **** a brick[/B].[/QUOTE] Why?
Like molds mentioned earlier, and I believe I mentioned before, I'm sick of this **** with the team members talking about who to vote in before what's supposed to be a "secret" vote. It takes the whole purpose out of it all. I get the Brad's whole desperate to win a Challenge deal, but just come out and ******* say it already. Just say, "Listen, I want to finally win one, I got voted out of the final in my first Challenge because I was the new guy, I lost the Duel to Wes on stupid soccer kicks, I lost Duel 2 to Evan by less than 5 seconds, I'm tired of losing. You're new, I don't know how many more of these I'm gonna do after this, I've done shows with the rest of these people, and I'm more comfortable with them, don't take it personally." I don't even like Camila, I've found her pretty annoying throughout this season and still am wondering who the **** thought that taking one of the people that Evan sat around making fun of for a week on spring break and sticking them on a Challenge was a good idea. Like she wasn't going to be outcast. But I think Paula was the obvious choice to go in tonight. She ****ed up the mission. At least Tyler had the gall to praise Camila's performance. Though this all could have been avoided had Camila not told Brad that she voted for him last week. She buried herself with that one. Shut up, Laurel. I wanted her to lose because I'm tired of listening to her. Abram did kind of have a point...she got talked up way too much, and she hadn't lived up to what he expected of her, given what he had heard. Keep in mind that since we now know that Abram doesn't watch the shows, what other people tell him about someone's competitive ability is the only thing he has to go by other than watching peoples' performance. What he heard and what he saw out of Laurel weren't matching up. The bed hopping mission probably stuck out in his mind, since she DQ'd. And stop complaining about being sent into the Gulag AFTER YOU WON IT! She ******* more about going in once than Brandon did about going in four times. Quit acting like such a brat. It was good to see Dan and the changes he's made this time around. Seems like a good guy and is very well liked by many of the castmembers. I hope we'll see him again. And as for CT coming in, it would be infinitely more awesome if it was Coral walking up beside him and not Tina.
[QUOTE=RubenJay05;221678]Yea, I'm pretty sure we haven't seen Tina in 3 years and CT's rumored "black ball" status from the show is enough to have people shocked he's there. The only other people they could have put instead of them would be Coral and Mike (Miz) or Kina and Darrell. But I think the whole point of these two is to pose that they are out for some sort of revenge. It would have been cool if they brought in a whole team of them though. Like Tina, Veronica(or Tonya), Coral and CT, Darrell, and Shane.[/QUOTE] I think their expressions would be the same if they had brought Landon on instead of CT. With CT, people are scared of his temper. With Landon, they respect that he's a bad ***.

[QUOTE=JL81790;221666]It would have been funny if it was Tina and Kenny. [B]I wish it were Rachel instead of Tina. Tori would probably **** a brick.[/B][/QUOTE] [QUOTE=V1man;221752]Why?[/QUOTE] Just agreeing to the statement above.
[QUOTE=V1man;221752]Why?[/QUOTE] Tori didn't care for Rachel and Rachel definitely didn't care for Tori.

Laurel is so HBIC! I love that woman! Cara Maria is not really good on this whole challenge so far, which isn't really a suprise smh.
I still think that Abram saying he voted for Laurel based on performance is BS. I like Cara a LOT more than Laurel this season but Laurel outperformed her in every mission and the only one Laurel DQed on Cara did too. I think everyone probably deserves to go in at least once so I don't have a problem with her going, but he should've just straight up said "I like Cara, she's already gone in, it's your turn." instead of claiming it was a performance thing.
Pretty sad that Camila and Dan were eliminated. I was enjoying to see them. That red team it's a snake pit, completely. Feel bad about Camila, I think she was the strongest female of the red team. At least she was the one who was proven herself challenge after challenge, but now they're happy, they kicked the girl out.
[QUOTE=REYYY2P;221757]Cutthroat Dan > Island Dan[/QUOTE] Cutthroat Dan >>>>>>> Island Dan. I definitely think Abram should have been straight up with Laurel. I think part of his decision might have also been influenced by Laurel's personality (I know at some point she said some really disrespectful stuff to him, although I don't know if it already happened). He wouldn't have needed to mention that part, but just say that at this point, they're all good players and just need to take turns, and they want her back, like how the Blue team is doing.

I haven't heard Jenn's name mentioned once.

Personally I'm going to enjoy Tina's presence.
When will the next episode air? December 1st?
[QUOTE=DerrickFTW;221791]When will the next episode air? December 1st?[/QUOTE] Unfortunately, yes. :(
Even though I didn't like the fact that she was even on this challenge. I kinda felt bad for Camilla getting eliminated. Rookie or not I didn't like how they treated her and she didn't deserve to go in the gulag that time. Dan-So sad to see him go he really kept to being sober and I agree with Paula that sober Dan is much better. I hope he stays on his booze-free path and returns to the challenges. Like others have said Abe just needed to be straight up with Laurel and I thought it was funny how after the gualg she was saying people shoule "watch their back" LOL....What is she gonna do wrestle them naked or something? Oh and Brad and Tori are still not looking any good this challenge.
The next episode is only in December first? Why?
[QUOTE=EPluribusUnum;221797]The next episode is only in December first? Why?[/QUOTE] The show is taking a two week break, possibly for Thanksgiving.
Oh, ok, I forgot the celebration of the Thanksgiving..
I think it's important to note that Camila wasn't a liability because of her physical abilities--she was a liability because she hated her team. There was no telling what she would do if she returned to the team. Of course, the red team created their own monster on that one by making Camila so angry and alienated that she hated them. So it's their own fault that she became a liability, but it doesn't counteract the fact that she could have been dangerous to the team.
Okay, after watching the episode I think a lot of us need to think about something very important. Brad has done many challenges, and in each one of those challenges he has never taken on a leadership role. That is just not the kind of competitor he is. He is more of a number 2 guy. Also, lets put ourselves in brad's shoes. Most married men go along with what their wife says, if Derrick's wife was there, he would listen to what she said and would do what she said. Though Brad may not agree with decisions that Tori is making he as to follow them because Brad doesn't want to get the wife mad, and I think we can all agree that life is much easier when the wife is happy.

He has the most experience at these things and acts like the big dog in charge of them--he needs to back it up. If he wasn't acting like he should be running everything then I wouldn't expect as much of him.
[QUOTE=Morris1721;221703]It's simple to understand the red team, Brad will do anything to win, and Tori will help him. [B]Doesn't matter who they screw over in the process.[/B] .[/QUOTE] Here’s the thing that bugs me about Toad. Brad said at the beginning of the season that they were going to use this money to start a family. So what exactly are they teaching their children? The end justifies the means? It can be argued that Derrick is doing the same thing but at least he steps up and proves himself as an athlete and a leader. [QUOTE=TDMEL52;221801] Though Brad may not agree with decisions that Tori is making he as to follow them because Brad doesn't want to get the wife mad, and I think we can all agree that life is much easier when the wife is happy.[/QUOTE] So Brad the Cad is not going to stand up to Queen Itch even if he thinks what she’s doing is a massive mistake? How long will he be her whipping boy?
"Queen Itch"? Where did that come from?

Their true leader is Tori, who's chaotic personality defines the team.
[QUOTE=Clarke;221790]It seems like everyone's excited for C.T. but not so much Tina. Personally I'm going to enjoy Tina's presence.[/QUOTE] I, for one, am MUCH more excited to see Tina. But seeing CT, will be good also.
In the end of this episode we can see that Brad is ****** at Tori, maybe he starting to step up from now, let's see what's going to happen. As far as what concerns the grey team, it seems that Laurel, if she could, would want to get rid of everyone there except Sarah, she's really ****** off. Looks like she gets DQ'ed on the next challenge, I think that is what she's doing while she and Sarah are walking away and she's cursing at Abe.

Brad shouldn't just do what Tori says. Tori is his wife. Not his mother.
Am I the only one who thinks that Abram is the weakest guy on the grey team (next to Luke) right now? He's either lost his cool, steered his team wrong or not come through in the challenges and hasn't stepped up to go into the Gulag yet. On the last challenge (last night), Cara Maria stayed up on the rope and kept them grounded there, while he flailed around like an idiot. Then, like everything else on challenges, Abram made a lot of noise, acted tough and charged without thinking. He's not a great leader this go, in my opinion. I think the reason why Abram is calling out Laurel for not living up to her hype is the same reason why someone needs to call out the vets, like Abram, Tori and Brad. The only vet to really stand out has been Derrick, in my mind. Abram should have just said "I'm voting for Laurel, because I don't like you and Cara Maria keeps saving my *** and taking the heat for me." It'd be closer to the truth. Could it be that Brad doesn't want to go into the Gulag and falling back on "my wife won't let me" is easier on his pride than admitting it? They didn't even make an attempt at doing the challenge, made an excuse and walked off. That's not even pretending to have good sportsmanship. Guys like Wes and Evan may play shady games, but at least they have the physical side to back it up.
