Episode Report Card Sara M: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT If Your Father Dies, Don't Tell Corinne
By Sara M | Season 17 | Episode 13 | Aired on 12.14.2008
Ridiculously tragic music plays as Nobag returns to camp. Oh good god, people, this isn't Sophie's Choice. Settle down with the epic score. Everyone assumes Bob is going home tonight and they apologize to him accordingly, except for Susie, who is so thrilled and surprised that she won that she can't help but say how thrilled and surprised she is. Bob and Matty embrace sadly while Sugar sobs in a corner. Can someone tell them that Bob isn't going off to die? He's actually going to brush his teeth and take a shower and eat and stuff. He'll be okay. "Susie won, and that means ... that means we have to vote for Bob!" Sugar sobs. Is it wrong that I laughed at their pain? I mean, I liked Bob and everything, but this is way over the top. Bob tells everyone that it was a good, fun game as the tragic music swells. Matty apologizes to Bob, saying he has to write his name down tonight. Whatever, Matty. You know you're secretly thrilled that the only person who could win a million dollars over you is going. Bob says it's okay, and it's just a game. And yet these people are acting like they are voting Bob into certain death.
Susie starts babbling because she's full of adrenaline and victory. She says she doubted herself, but you just have to tell yourself you can do it, and then you will. Bob doesn't want to hear this, because he told himself he could do it and it wasn't enough. Susie tells us she's thrilled to be in the Final Three after being underestimated, both in this game and, from the way she says it, in life. She keeps talking about how she visualized herself winning and then she did, and she's in shock, and she cannot read the room because everyone is obviously pissed off that she won and doesn't want to hear about her victory or share in her happiness. She then asks Bob if he thinks he would win a lot of jury votes if he were to go to the Final Three. Bob doesn't want to talk about this at all, since he thinks it's pretty much a done deal that he won't make the Final Three. He snaps at Susie that it's a moot point, so why ask? Turns out that it wasn't, as Susie tells us that she asked Bob that question to see if there was a way she could justify voting Sugar out and bringing Bob to the Final Three. Later, she's in the hut with Sugar, Bob, and Matty. She asks them if they were going to vote her out if they had won the challenge instead of her. Again, Bob asks if they can talk about something else since everyone knows he's going tonight and he doesn't want to hear about it over and over again. Susie tells us that when Bob snapped at her, she decided that his fate was sealed.
