Episode Report Card Miss Alli: C+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT The Rubbing Out of Amazon Rob
By Miss Alli | Season 8 | Episode 4 | Aired on 02.18.2004
First up is Boston Rob. He turns toward Ethan. "Pretty-boy," he says. Ethan looks up. HA! Snerk. Jeff says, "Who's 'pretty-boy'?", but as Boston Rob points out, it's too late for that, because Ethan has already acknowledged that if there's a pretty-boy in the vicinity, it's undoubtedly himself. "You got a rock in they-ah?" B-Rob asks him with a grin. "You got a couple up here, don'tcha?" Ethan says, pointing to his head, which is such an unspeakably lame response that I can barely stand to recount it. Don't try to be witty if it's not in you, Ethan, because I heard that one moaning for help all the way from the frozen tundra. Anyway, Ethan has no rock. Hatch asks B-Rob for his rock. Rupert takes Amber's sponge (ew), Amber takes Kathy's seed (I swear this game is not dirty). Kathy takes A-Rob's shell. Ethan takes Shii Ann's coral. A-Rob takes Lex's coral. Lex tries in vain for a feather from Jenna, and then has his feather nabbed by Alicia. Jerri takes Hatch's coconut shell. B-Rob takes Hatch's driftwood (okay, never mind, the game IS dirty).
Hatch flames out going after a sponge from A-Rob, and then Rupert takes Jenna's rock, and even though she tries to get the box open and shut as quickly as possible, Ethan snots at her, "Jenna, why don't you just leave it open?" Good one, genius -- in case anyone hadn't been trying to peek before, they certainly will be now. And interestingly, A-Rob then takes Ethan's coconut shell, so maybe Ethan should shut the fuck up and worry a little more about himself and a little less about trying to embarrass Jenna, considering that they are on the same team. Lex takes Jenna's sponge, and Jeff helpfully encourages Lex to emphasize that he did indeed peek into Jenna's open box while she was taking something out. Alicia takes Lex's coconut shell, and Lex is out. Shii Ann asks Alicia for a feather, but Alicia reminds Shii Ann that she gave hers up already. Oh, shades of the conditioner! I remember this game! Rupert -- less stupid about this game than he is about the game of not drowning in your own hole -- takes the feather Shii Ann just announced she had. Amber takes Jenna's driftwood and knocks her out, and Amber is thus out herself as well. Kathy takes A-Rob's rock, and he's out. Ethan takes Jerri's shell. Shii Ann takes B-Rob's shell, and Jerri takes Alicia's coral. Rupert takes Kathy's driftwood, so they're both done. B-Rob knocks out himself and Hatch by taking Hatch's sea sponge. Alicia just needs to get the last match to win it for her team, and she does it by snagging Jerri's seed. So it's another win for the mighty Chapera. They collect their rice clue and, of course, their bathroom. I think that bathroom, incidentally, is better than the one in my old apartment, which wasn't even portable.
