12/7: Things aren’t so miserable now that the bitchy millionairess is gone. The Gingers had to compete next. It was a swimming competition & you would think Nicole would have the advantage since she did ‘Baywatch’. They had to dive for oysters & give it to their Gilligan to shuck & get 15 pearls to make a necklace. Rachel had a hard time cuz she has had an ear problem since she was young so diving deep hurts. But she won & Nicole was banished. Gilligan, Mary Ann & the Millionaires from Gold Team formed an alliance. Mary Ann & Rachel got into a tiff when Rachel asked Mary Ann if she knew what happened to her crackers & Mary Ann asked if Rachel took them. This offended Rachel who gave away a banana & an apple to the other team cuz they were starving. Rachel said if she had to vote someone off it would be Mary Ann. The Gilligan’s had to compete next. They were spun in a chair while water poured on them & they were holding a bucket. They had to fill a larger bucket that they had to walk to while being dizzy. Gilligan Gooner had pretended to be sick prior to the challenge to throw off the other Gilligan. The whistle blew & they had to weigh their buckets. Gilligan Chris won. So this means Gold won every challenge. They only lost one player & that was cuz the Skipper physically couldn’t compete. A hurricane hit the island as the show ended. Next week the rules change & their challenge has something to do with a bunch of dead fish. 

12/14: It is everyone for themselves now. They will have 2 challenges a day – Reward & Immunity. They call it a “Safety” & you get a life ring. The Stearns have an alliance w/ Gilligan & Mary Ann. The Reward was a pepperoni pizza. They had to go through dead fish in a tide pool & look for a diamond ring. Mrs. Stearns said she usually only had to swallow for a diamond. Mary Ann won & took Gilligan as her date. They moved her mattress onto his hammock & made out before going to sleep. Immunity was the challenge Survivor always does where you had to knock someone else out of the game. Everyone had 3 coconuts & once they were smashed you were out. Mr. Stearns went for Rachel right away. His alliance followed suit & took Rachel out first. The Professor was the 1st dumbass to take out his own so he didn’t have to target anyone else. A few others did it as well. In the end, The Stearns alliance were left & eventually the Safety went to the Mrs. Rachel knew she was the threat & tried to stir things up. She was still obsessing on what happened to Mary Ann’s crackers. That is the excuse Mary Ann gave for chopping her coconut – cuz she told people she can’t be trusted cuz she ate her own crackers. Mary Ann still says she didn’t. Mr Stearns thinks people see him as the biggest threat so that it might be in his best interest to keep Rachel this round so there is another target. His alliance followed his lead & they voted out The Professor instead. Oh & the way they cast their votes is by putting the person's voodoo doll in a box. I missed the next episode. They must’ve played 2 back-to-back & I didn’t realize it. I caught the last half hour of it late at night on accident. So I don’t know what they did for Reward & who won it. & I know Gilligan broke up his alliance but I don’t know what he said or why. Immunity was an obstacle course where they had to swing into the water & then swim to a board balancing on the water that they had to walk across & then up a cargo net. Mr Stearns won the Safety. At Voodoo Village Rachel & Gilligan voted for the Mrs. The rest of the alliance voted for Rachel. & the dumb Skipper voted for Mary Ann so Rachel was banished. 

12/21: The 1st Reward was something they do on ‘Big Brother’ all the time. They were presented w/ their favorite meal. Of course there was a twist. All of their favorite meals were blended into one & they had 5 minutes to drink it. Everyone who completed it got to have their favorite meal for dinner. Skipper had no trouble w/ it & actually enjoyed it. Mr. Stearns had the most trouble but eventually he finished like everyone else. Both Mr. Stearns & Gilligan worked Mary Ann. Stearns wanted her to stay w/ her word to their alliance while Gilligan just wanted her to think for herself & realize the Stearns are a power of 2 & won’t ever turn on each other. The 1st Safety was like musical chairs in the water. There were different things anchored in the water & the host would name an item & they would have to jump into the lagoon to get it. There would always be one less item than there were people so someone was eliminated each round. Skipper was out 1st. Eventually it was down to Mrs. Stearns & Gilligan. Mrs. Won. Mr. Stearns was nervous but in the end there was no need. Mary Ann continued w/ her word & bad strategy & took out Skipper who can’t win competitions & kept Mr. Stearns who wins or almost wins everything & has his wife as a partner. Gilligan was annoyed w/ Mary Ann’s decision to keep a millionaire over a working class guy. She thinks she is playing w/ integrity. Gilligan said that Mr Stearns offered her a job so that isn’t integrity. She said that wasn’t why she voted the way she did. Mary Ann went & tattled to the Stearns about Gilligan. So the Stearns told Mary Ann everything she needed to hear to keep her on the Dark Side. He claims once they are at Final 3 that they would draw straws to see who goes next. But Mary Ann has her word w/ Gilligan for Final 2. Mary Ann tried to sell to Gilligan that it is now every one for themselves & that there isn’t an alliance anymore. The radio tells them that they will now have to compete in the FINAL safety. They thought there would be another one. They find out at the lagoon that this will be the final Safety but they will have to compete again tomorrow for a Rescue Competition & the winner takes all. Today they have to answer trivia questions about the castaways. Every wrong answer & you will have to walk one step forward on a beam balancing over the lagoon. After all the questions it is just endurance. Every 5 minutes they will have to take a step forward. Last person standing won the safety. Gilligan was at the end the 1st & he fell. Then the Final 3 were at the end & Mr. Stearns fell. The ladies fight it out for over a half hour & then Mary Ann started to lose her balance but regained it. She offered Mrs. Stearns a massage if she fell. Mrs Stearns offered her shoes but Mary Ann said if she won the money she could buy her own. After awhile they deal & Mary Ann offered Mrs Stearns final 3 if she jumped & Mrs jumped immediately cuz she knew Mary Ann was good for her word. Mary Ann was now guaranteed Final 3. Mary Ann tells Gilligan she doesn’t know what she is going to do. That bothered him cuz she has been telling him from the beginning that she would take him to Final 2. Mrs. Stearns tells Mr. that the deal was just for her & he thinks Mindy may have screwed everything. Mr. Stearns was pissed that Mrs. Covered herself & not him. He said he fought for her the whole game & she didn’t fight for him. Mrs Stearns felt horrible & that it looked like she sold out her husband. She doesn’t think the game is worth messing up his marriage. Mr Stearns tells her to go to Mary Ann & tell her that the deal was for them for Final 3. 

Gilligan asked Mary Ann if they still have a deal. She said yes. She said she is a woman of her word. At this point she thinks she is keeping him but she hadn’t talked to the Stearns yet. She tells the Stearns that tomorrow isn’t voting like they thought. Mr Stearns said I thought we made a deal. Mrs said she thought they had a deal for Final 3. Gilligan walked into the conversation. He tried to defend Mary Ann. Mary Ann said she had words w/ all of them. Mr. tried to turn Mary Ann against Gilligan. Then Mrs attacked Gilligan as well. Mary Ann cried saying she doesn’t know what to do. Mr tried to play it off like Gilligan is putting all the pressure on Mary Ann. Gilligan said he & Mary Ann need the money. Mr said the kids in his charity need the money & that he is shallow for thinking he needs the money more than his charity. Gilligan told Mr to take his job & shove it up his ass. Gilligan said you can’t buy me & is sorry it worked on some people. They go to Voodoo Village for the vote off. Mary Ann had to vote 1st & she cried as she did it. The Stearns voted for Gilligan & Gilligan voted for Mr. Stearns. Mary Ann went for the pussy vote & voted for Mrs Stearns. Mrs Stearns had told her that she could & that way she was honoring her word not to vote against Gilligan. Mary Ann doesn’t see that this was just a way to manipulate her. She so deserves to lose this game for being a complete idiot. Gilligan was banished. He told them manipulation & integrity can’t coincide. He was disgusted w/ Mary Ann as was I. The Final 3 reminisce & we see clips from the entire season. The host tells them there is a rescue helicopter that they must attract it to save them. They get a map that tells them where they have to go on the island to do this. Once there they have to make an SOS sign on the beach & then get a shovel as they follow a map to the next stop. You get there & then have to dig for a box that had a torch in it. You take that torch to the camp to light the torch & have to take that & swim out to a raft to light flares to attract the chopper. When Mr. Stearns found out it was a race he thought he was the underdog. Mary Ann couldn’t figure out how to read the map. She then had trouble digging up the box. Mr Stearns was in the lead & then his wife was gaining on him. Mr. Stearns was rescued & we had to hear him pat himself on the back. Mrs. Stearns was proud of him. Mary Ann cried & I was thrilled that she lost. The girls consoled each other. & that is where my TiVo stopped. Damn TBS for playing it at weird times. So I have no idea how it ended. I went to the official site & read their summary & there wasn’t anything else to the show so I didn’t miss anything. It also says on the site that there is going to be another season. I don’t know when it begins though.
