Survivorfest China - week 4

Crazy Dave is out! In a way I'm a little disappointed, because he was the first one this season to pick up a nickname. It would have also been interesting to see a little more Dave and Sherea. They were fighting like an old married couple. Over shells. Good stuff.

Finally, Denise speaks! As I mentioned before it almost seemed like she had disappeared. Now where's Eric...?

Kathy and I agreed that the tribe made a critical mistake by sitting out Courtney on the chopsticks challenge. It wasn't really a physical challenge, so you knew the next one would be...

My favorite line of Survivor China was from James to Crazy Dave: "Yo, man...I told you about da hugging!"

Dave gets the special immunity clue. And promptly trusts Todd with it. Why does everyone trust Todd? Maybe he mentioned something about being a big fan of naked man wrestling.

Second favorite line of Survivor China was from Denise, speaking about the food they got to eat: "Flavor has never tasted so good." quickly followed by "It was the most delicate-est thing I ever put in my mouth!" Ah, lunch ladies...

Jean-Robert speaks Mandarin?!? Okay, I'm a little disappointed that this little nugget of information didn't make his bio! I know he likes Snickers. And Honeycombs. They couldn't tell us he knew frikkin' Mandarin?

I liked the bolo and stick challenge! I said that James looked like he might actually kill someone in that challenge, to which my ten-year-old, Louisa, replied: "That's okay if he does...then he can bury them!" Yup. That's my kid.

I figured Denise would be an ace in the bolo challenge, what with her hobby of axe throwing and all. Alas, she was a dud. Further, she was matched up with Courtney who looked like she could barely stand up in the armor.

My kid, Louisa: "I hope Todd wins...then I'd get a lot of money...cha ching!"
Wife, Kathy: "Well, don't count your chickens before they're hatched."
Louisa: "Huh? But I put money on Chicken..."
Yup. Definitely my kid.

Dave asks Peih-Gee who she is planning to vote off to which she replies "I haven't decided yet". That, my friends, is the kiss of death.

I think Dave is the first contestant I've seen who was voted off and never once looked back as he left. Usually they wave, or smile sadly at one of their pals, or growl something. Never even glanced back.

Next week: Eric the musician is a virgin! I halfway expect a Johnny Fairplay moment.
