I found Jim and Brandon equally on par. If Jim's in the main alliance, Jim's going to be the one who's taking Brandon's role for sure.

Does anyone know when defeated RI players go to jury?

In the next episode there will be a RI challenge between Keith, Ozzy and Jim.  Two will survive, the loser will become the first jury member.

I like Brandon. He's extremely loyal and has a good heart. He stood up for Cochran when the Savaii members were calling him names, and went to make sure Ozzy wasn't bullying Cochran after Tribal.

And Brandon made Whitney cry? No, Whitney cried because she felt "vilified", and that the Upolu tribe made her out to be a bully when she wasn't. Remember when she came back from the Tribal where Cochran flipped and began cursing at him, and calling him names? The Upolu tribe was standing not far away, and heard that, causing them to realize how badly Cochran was treated. So no, Brandon did NOT make Whitney cry- that was her own self.

I honestly don't understand where all this hatred is coming from. I see Brandon as a 19 year old kid who is simply trying to do the right thing. He may be misguided, but at least he wants to do the right thing, which is a heck of a lot more than the former Savaii- Cochran have been doing.

"Enough, is enough. The smaller people don't have to take it anymore."
But there's one point you can't deny - And that is Brandon's constant bull**** DID make Whitney cry. Call Whitney emotionally weak or what, but Brandon was the cause of that. It's like if you as an adult snatch a toy from a 3 year old child and the child cries, it's YOUR fault as an adult, not the child's because the child has something taken away from him/her.

Brandon's action at tribal council was uncalled for. He didn't need to keep rattling on and on at Dawn, who didn't even comment ANYTHING negative/outburst at him. In my opinion, that was very very rude and ungentlemanly.
? :duno:

Yeah,  I will agree that what he did to Dawn was uncalled for, but how on earth did he make Whitney cry? His comments were about Savaii treating Cochran poorly, and Whitney cried because she felt vilified. You're making it sound like Brandon spent his time at Tribal Council trash talking her. He was simply talking about how now that Savaii didn't have the numbers, they've changed and became nicer to the Upolu, but before, they were arrogant and treated people poorly. THAT'S what upset her, not Brandon. Yeah, it was his comments, but they weren't directed at her, but the former Savaii tribe.

And yet, in the end, he wanted to keep her over Edna. He just refused to vote for Edna because he made a deal with her because he wanted to be loyal, and play the game with integrity.

I know it's a bit late, but WOW! What a nice episode! Seeing Jim get knocked off of his pedestal <3. Ozzy getting snuffed <3. Dawn/Cochran in general <3. Whitney having a breakout episode <3. But yeah, Jim's whole Honor thing made me lol. Especially with the spiel about giving up Immunity because he's true to his word. WELL HOW DID THAT WORK OUT?!?! HUH? Ugh...I'm worried next week for Dawn though :( :( :(

Jim & Brandon are two of the biggest losers on Survivor ever. Jim talks about how he thinks Cochran's disgusting because he betrayed someone. If I remember correctly, didn't Jim create a plan to vote out Elyse who he was aligned with? Also his master plan to save Ozzy & vote out Cochran was all ready to go... until he realized it won't work, so he saves his butt instead of Ozzy. And don't get me started on Brandon. HE MADE WHITNEY CRY. For no reason whatsoever. Stupid Hantz.

You're completely not getting what I'm trying to say. My point is simple. Brandon's pointless trashtalking resulted in Whitney crying. Simple as that. Had he shut his mouth up, Whitney and Dawn wouldn't have feel as bad. That's just what I'm saying. You can go ahead and disagree. I am not even mentioning about the fact that he's protecting Cochran that's why he spoke up for him. I have nothing against him SPEAKING UP for Cochran, in fact he should as an individual to protect those who's bullied.

What I'm saying here, is HOW he DID his protection against Cochran, how his words were just bullcrap and completely rude and uncalled for.

There's a difference between

1. Cochran shouldn't be bullied and you all should have respected him more. (in a polite way)

AS COMPARED TO

2. Whatever Brandon said at Tribal Council :res: (the completely rude and uncalled for way)

Yep.

The idea here is "he wanted to keep her over Edna". But he didn't. He can say anything he wants. He can even say that his initial plan is to play with Christine. But how many of us actually buy what he said about wanting to keep Mikayla over Edna? I don't buy it. Look at who he voted for in the end. Anything about honour, integrity and everything else. I do agree, he is definitely honourable to his alliance. But they way he treats people, is probably just like how Russell kept true to his words to his alliance, but treated everyone else like crap on his tribe as well.

Let's just say the Hantz Family really needs to go for EQ courses, because they probably have none.

Yeah, I do get your point. I just don't like how you keep making it sound like Brandon spent his time at Tribal Council attacking Whitney for no reason, when in actuality he was protecting a friend. Was his approach the right way? No. But his intentions were right, and I don't think he should be beat up for that.....

Had he shut his mouth up, Whitney and Dawn wouldn't have feel as bad. That's just what I'm saying. You can go ahead and disagree. I am not even mentioning about the fact that he's protecting Cochran that's why he spoke up for him. I have nothing against him SPEAKING UP for Cochran, in fact he should as an individual to protect those who's bullied.

What I'm saying here, is HOW he DID his protection against Cochran, how his words were just bullcrap and completely rude and uncalled for.

There's a difference between

1. Cochran shouldn't be bullied and you all should have respected him more. (in a polite way)

AS COMPARED TO

2. Whatever Brandon said at Tribal Council :res: (the completely rude and uncalled for way)

Yep.

Yeah, I do get your point. I just don't like how you keep making it sound like Brandon spent his time at Tribal Council attacking Whitney for no reason, when in actuality he was protecting a friend. Was his approach the right way? No. But his intentions were right, and I don't think he should be beat up for that.....

It's a miscommunication then as I see from your post. I had never ever mentioned the part that Brandon spent his time at Tribal Council attacking Whitney only. He spent his time attacking Savaii, with the wrong way and approach, thus resulting in Whitney crying. Does this explanation from me makes much more sense now?

Whether his intentions were right or not, it really depends on one's perspective. If the intention was to protect Cochran, it's fair. If the intention was to exclude Savaii, make them feel horrible and throw them under the bus, then you should know whether it's good or bad. FYI, it did feel that way and I'm not the only one.

At least Brandon is open and honest about his marital relations.

I know it's a bit late, but WOW! What a nice episode! Seeing Jim get knocked off of his pedestal <3. Ozzy getting snuffed <3. Dawn/Cochran in general <3. Whitney having a breakout episode <3. But yeah, Jim's whole Honor thing made me lol. Especially with the spiel about giving up Immunity because he's true to his word. WELL HOW DID THAT WORK OUT?!?! HUH? Ugh...I'm worried next week for Dawn though :( :( :(

Still holding on for Dawn/Sophie/Cochran

THIS :<3

Yeah, I know I'm the odd one out when I support Brandon. I truly do think he was trying to do the right thing.

If anything, though, at least he gets people talking. Interesting but Controversial people> People with no personality. Makes this season A LOT better than the last....

Oh my God, last season... all I remembered was knowing Rob will win about 5 episodes into the series. :lol:

But the last season that was really good was Heroes VS Villians... I think we need Queen Parv, Cirie and Amanda again. Can they invite back GIRLS PAST PLAYERS and stop inviting the guys? LOL

I have a feeling Brandon is already in their next Allstars list. :lol:

Well, I think they've stopped the returning player thing....
Although I do want to see Rob C. back. ( I just realized how random that is)

Georgia - Haven't checked for a few days but I had earlier asked when contestants begin going to the Ponderosa???

One comment about Brandon - he lost me when he turned so viciously on Mikayla, and for what??  For being female??  He is worse than his uncle IMO  Does he think he is fooling everyone  :duno: Not me.
