Congratulations Amanda!

amanda
Amanda Colley Van Cooll
won in the second season of Survivor Philippines. She bested 15 other contestants won the hearts of the jury in the end.

The half-Pinay, half-American construction worker in Alaska but had lived in Mindoro prior to the contest had her chance to turn the cards when her friend Mika (who lasted in the competition for up to the Top 5) gave her the moment to speak her heart out. Her family's situation seemed to win over the jury's hearts.

Many fans of the show thought it would be Justine Ferrer, the transexual castaway from Caloocan. But in a contest like this, there's really no telling who would win.

Unlike the first season, Palau had no leakage as to who would win. There were rumors that Jef Gaitan would emerge as the winner, but it was only good for what it was – a rumor.

Perhaps it was also the reason why GMA-7 chose to have a Top 3 this season instead of the first season's Top 2 – to eliminate the speculations and leakage.

It was also said that no one really knew the winner until last night, when the live finale was held at the Studio 5 of GMA Network Studios.

Despite the harsh words and betrayal that happened to them in the game, the Top 3 seemed to have forgiven one another for what happened. Justine even apologized to Amanda and her family last night for the things that she said which was aired on the last few episodes of the show. She said she also couldn't believe what she did and she requested that they give her a chance to prove herself worthy of Amanda's friendship.

I guess everyone was forgiving as Justine and Amanda were in Eat Bulaga! this afternoon as a pair in one of the noontime show's contests. They even won, mind you.

The two, with Jef, were also in an interview with Butch Francisco in Star Talk. Justine was so pretty and sad to say, even with makeup on, Amanda still looks like a tomboy. But it's an easy fix, I guess. All she needs is… a good stylist.

Catch Amanda and Mika later on Pinoy Records, and Echo Caceres on Wish Ko Lang. And of course, don't forget the Survivor Reunion Special tomorrow night on GMA-7's Sunday Night Box Office (SNBO).

SP: Palau - The Final Three

Part 2 of the Tribal Council had been full of anger. The desperation among each of the four remaining ones were so evident. There was this side of Charles that came out - that angry and palaban side of him. He had always been calm, with moderate voice, even during the heat of Justine's freak-out moment back at the camp. But it was different at the Tribal Council. He was even commanding Jef to tell the truth in a not so subtle manner.

Jef told Paolo that she's going to go with the original plan. At first it could be thought of as the plan she had agreed on with Justine and Charles, but which was later to be revealed that original meant her first alliance.

Charles chose to have the 2-million-peso condo unit, and eventually gave the Immunity Necklace to Justine. But unluckily, Charles was the one who got voted out.

There was a tie at first - with Jef and Amanda going against Charles, and Charles and Justine going against Amanda. Jef and Justine were made to vote again but same thing happened. Jef voted against Charles and Justine also still voted against Amanda.

In that case, Charles and Amanda were made to battle it out in a challenge of making fire. Amanda was able to keep her fire burning long enough to make her string break and likewise, break Charles desire to be among the Top 3.

The castaways will face the jury tomorrow. The preview showed Tara bashing Jef, Echo bashing Amanda, and Mika bashing Justine.

The Friday finale is already so near. Don't fail to catch the last 2 episodes of Survivor Philippines: Palau on GMA-7, right after Rosalinda.

SP: Palau - The Desperation Arises

Amanda talked to Charles in going against Justine. She pointed out to Charles that he has no chance in winning the top prize if he's going to compete it out with Justine. Charles somehow believed Amanda that's why he promised to give her the Immunity Necklace. But Justine somehow overheard it all, especially Jef and Amanda's conversation of plotting to vote Justine out.

Justine was furious. She kept on insisting that Amanda shouldn't have told them that she's already accepted her fate and ready to go home; that Amanda shouldn't have talked to Charles and Jef anymore to get her alliance's trust. It must be too hard for Justine knowing how gullible Jef and Charles were.

Charles decided that they should already be honest to one another. And amid the shouts and angry outbursts, Charles started telling Amanda of his decision. Justine was the one who broke it, though - that she was the one Charles decided to give the Immunity Necklace to at the Tribal Council.

Due to anger, Justine broke their pot. And they only have one.

At the Tribal Council, Paolo asked Charles if he'd take the condo unit or the Immunity Necklace. Charles took the condo, and Paolo took the Immunity Necklace from him.

If last season's castaways were made to voice out what they feel one by one, it was different tonight. One of the four remaining castaways would have to go out of earshot, while Paolo talked to the other 3 castaways about the one outside.

Amanda was asked to go out first. When Paolo asked Justine of her opinion if Amanda was deserving to be the winner, Justine said that Amanda was deserving if for her strength, but not as a person.

Part 2 of the Tribal Council will be aired tomorrow, the 3rd to the last episode of the season.

Would Charles really hand over the Immunity Necklace to Justine? Would Jef let her emotions take over her decision?

SP: Palau - Charles Wins Immunity/Condo Unit


Amanda was so disappointed with what happened to Mika and after the Tribal Council, she kept her distance from the other 3 castaways. She slept on the other side of the shelter and she didn't speak at all.

Charles got the tree mail that told them of the last Immunity Challenge. It's another test of endurance as whoever could hold the string to keep a 50-pound crate high above the ground and without going beyond the designated point, wins.

Amanda's tears fell when Paolo told them they could also win a 2-million-peso condo unit if they won in the challenge. Perhaps she's thinking that Mika could have been there with her, and could have fought the challenge with her.

Jef was the first to give up. Judging from their physical forms it's not surprising that she wouldn't carry on a task that hard. Second was Justine. I'm guessing she didn't persevere enough. Perhaps because she thought she's already so safe? Amanda was crying before she gave up. It had been too hard for her at that time when she had shown great endurance skills in the previous challenges. Mika's eviction really took a great part of Amanda's spirit. She felt alone. She even said in a confessional that she was afraid to go back to camp after the last Tribal Council because her only one ally left is already gone. She even described Justine, Jef, and Charles as devils.

Charles, the last Immunity Challenge winner, couldn't have the best of both worlds. He could only have one of the rewards, that is, either immunity or the 2-million condo. If he chose the condo, the Immunity Necklace wouldn't go to waste. He had to pass it on to a fellow remaining castaway.

The problem arose when Jef told Justine and Charles that she couldn't vote against Amanda. She thought, anyway, that it wouldn't matter anymore because Justine and Charles were voting for Amanda at the next Tribal Council. But of course Justine saw the downside of it. What if Amanda also voted against the the person that Jef voted against? They would have a tie.

More problem would arise if Amanda would learn that Jef couldn't (for the sake of friendship) vote against her.

Would the next Tribal Council have another tie just like what happened to Suzuki and Justine?

Catch the 4 remaining episodes of Survivor Philippines: Palau right after Rosalinda on GMA.

SP: Palau - Mika's Fight Ends

Amanda and Mika turned to Charles when they were quite sure Jef's not with them anymore. But despite the pinky promise Charles made with Mika, he remained true to Justine and Jef. The three voted for Mika, while Amanda and Mika voted for Jef.

Tara and Echo made a high-five when Mika was announced eliminated. Tara even kept fanning herself with her hand. Such victory for them to have Mika out and join them in the jury panel.

Anyway, the tree mail bore a twist. It said that a 7-member jury will choose the winner among the three remaining castaways. So it's gonna be a Top 3 for this season. And we were wrong in predicting that they're gonna eliminate 2 castaways next week before the Live Finale.

Just one more castaway out and they're off to the Finals! Would it be Amanda? Or Charles? It would actually depend on who would win the last Immunity Necklace for the season.

Is the supposed leakage about the 2nd Sole Survivor true? It had been circulating in the blogosphere recently that Jef is the winner. How about that?

Not bad at all. But if we were to choose, we'd definitely pick Justine.

SP: Palau - Amanda Wins Immunity (Again)


There are five towers which the five remaining castaways should climb. But before that, they have to get the ladder parts locked inside the crates submerged under the sea. And since the crates are locked, they have to search for the keys that are buried under the sands first before hitting the water.

Once they have fit the planks of wood that will serve as ladders in the tower, they will then have to climb to the top in order to pull a string that would raise their flags. The first castaway with the flag up wins the Immunity Challenge.

Amanda found her key first followed by Jef, Charles, Mika, and Justine in that order. While swimming towards her crate, something happened to Jef that made her call out to Mika saying "Mikes, di ko na kaya."

Mika helped Jef and naturally, Jef felt guilty about betraying Mika with regards to their alliance. But not for long. Jef only had to talk to Amanda and know that they could only bring her up to top 3 to make change her heart.

Amanda won the challenge. She had the advantage of an early start when she luckily found the key to her crate so ahead of everyone else.

Despite helping Jef out, Mika was still able to go neck to neck with Amanda. Mika could have won, actually, if she had the prescence of mind to put the second to the last plank of wood through the hole on the other side of the tower.

Mika and Amanda talked to Jef to know if she's still with them, or is she with Justine and Charles. Jef said she's not sure. And realized in the end that everything depended on her. Amanda and Mika needed her side, as well as Justine and Charles. Whoever she'd side with in the next Tribal Council will actually win.

Things would be different, though, if she sided with Justine and Charles. She had the feeling she would have the chance to be one of the top 2 if ever she sided with them.

Who will be voted out tomorrow? Will Jef have the heart to vote against Mika? The one who helped her from drowning?

Survivor Philippines: Palau is almost at its end. Two more castaways will be eliminated next week before the live finale next Friday, November 13th.

Langit-Lupa

If Amanda and Mika felt like 7-year-olds with the dolphins, the other 3 castaways also had so much fun playing Langit-Lupa at the camp. Jef was so happy she wished Amanda and Mika wouldn't go back just yet so they won't be stressed.

The three made a plan of telling Amanda and Mika that they had already told Charles about his fate, so Charles should act sad like he already knew he'd be voted off. They had to make Mika and Amanda feel that they still had the girls' alliance.

The Immunity Challenge had been explained and the episode showed some teasers for tomorrow. Something happened to Jef, though, while in the water-part of the challenge like she called for help and Mika narrated how Jef, panicking, asked her for help.

I really just hope that Justine's plans would work out. That smirk on her face when Paolo reminded them about Amanda's refusal to accept the Immunity Bracelet in exchange for the reward was priceless. But had Amanda been wiser, she could easily have accepted the bracelet. She could have been safe and a sure part of the top 4. But would she win tomorrow's immunity? We'll soon find out =)

SP: Palau - Amanda Wins Immunity

Immunity Challenge.
The winner will also get the chance to talk to his/her loved ones here in the Philippines for 15 minutes. Shaun was very emotional when he got to see a video message from his wife. It also made him so determined to win the challenge.
The castaways will stand on a raft with a pail of water on top of their heads. They could use both hands in holding the pail but after 30 minutes, only 1 hand would be allowed.

Jef's pail fell off first. Justine was next to give up because she couldn't bear the pain on her head anymore. Third was Charles because his hand holding the pail became numb.

In the end, Amanda and Shaun battled it out. But Shaun's knees wobbled, causing some water to spill out.

Amanda was so happy with her first immunity win. She also immediately called her aunt, even requesting for a Graham when she returned.

Amanda picked Mika to bring with her in calling her other loved ones using the Smart Pug & Talk. That meant Mika could also call her loved ones!

Jef was hurt, and she realized that Charles was right in saying that it's really just Mika and Amanda. No Jef included.

The castaways had a visitor - a castaway from Season 1 most famous for his kontrabida image. Used to be tagged as the Bad Boy of Primetime, Marlon would sleep at the Sorsorol camp.

Will he bring inspiration to the Top 6? Or is he going to play with their tactics?

SP: Palau - Flattery Over Ice Cream

Justine was both shocked and overwhelmed that Shaun chose her to share the reward with. It’s her first time to be on a helicopter, much more, a helicopter ride that would give her a tour of all of Palau.


The two of them were taken to an island where they were treated to an ice cream feast. And of course, Shaun made the move to get Justine’s confidence. He even said that the nicest way to end the show is to have the first cast-off become the sole survivor. Flattery went a long way, too, because Justine seemed to become more convinced when Shaun said that if ever she won, she’d be the most beautiful sole survivor so far.

It seemed though that Justine was just very good in putting up a front, because she’s still true to her alliances Jef and Charles. They wanted either Mika or Shaun out. If one of the two got the immunity, then they’d vote the other out, and vice versa.

Jef and Charles, perceived to be two of the weakest from the very start, look like on top of the game now. Charles got the Immunity once, and Jef was almost always among the front runners during challenges.

Immunity Challenge tomorrow is another endurance test. Something that involves a bucket and a raft. Will Mika win so that her Red Pearl won’t have any effect in the next Tribal Council?

SP: Palau - Shaun Wins Reward

Everyone missed Suzuki. Shaun even cried because his plans to bring Zuki up to the final 2 has failed. He even blamed Charles for Suzuki's fate but Charles reminded him that he kept on telling them that the girls were going to vote for Suzuki. Shaun, though, insisted on using the Hidden Immunity Bracelet himself.

Shaun's point was, had Charles voted for Justine, the Transexual Beauty Queen would have been eliminated at once, avoiding the tie Justine and Suzuki went through.

Jef and Charles talked about who to vote for next. They're focusing on Shaun and Mika but it would all depend on who would win the Immunity Challenge. Jef said, though, that she thinks she wouldn't pass on the chance of Mika having the Red Pearl.

Reward Challenge
The remaining 6 castaways competed to win the Php100,000.00 reward. It's a long course of challenges but on the first part, only four will be chosen to go on to the next level. The first four castaways to dig their way under the cage, climb the net and jump over to reach the blue mats will be able to continue the challenge.

Mika was the first one out of the cage followed by Jef. Jef's improvised tube (the Sorsorol buff) though, got caught while climbing the net which delayed her a bit and exposed her right chest. But just the same, she ended up being the fourth to complete those who will move on, with Shaun, Mika, and Charles already on the mat.

Amanda was so disappointed that she didn't even made it to the first part. Moreso, because she wasn't even able to beat Jef.

The last part of the challenge was battled out by Shaun and Mika. Shaun had a good lead, though, making him win the Php100,000.00 reward.

SP: Palau - Goodbye Suzuki

The game is getting more exciting than ever, with the weak castaways (read: Charles and Jef) using their minds to strategize in order to survive. Jef realizes (for the nth time) that everything is just being fed to her by Mika. Good thing she realizes that before it's too late.

When the first 3 members of the jury joined the Tribal Council, Amanda was made to stay in her seat while the rest of the castaways go out. It's an activity where the one on the hotseat will have to answer Paolo's questions while the others are out of earshot. Everyone went through it but the most haunting part was Suzuki's turn. He knew he's going. And he acted like there's nothing he could do to stop that.

Shaun decided to use the bracelet so his 3 votes, the highest that night, weren't counted. Both Suzuki and Justin got 2 each and the first tie breaker was held.

Mika, Jef, and Amanda voted for Suzuki while Charles and Shaun went for Justine. Suzuki had to say goodbye. But before he left, he hugged each and every one of the castaways. The longest embrace went to Shaun. Suzuki trusted Shaun so much until the end. If he only knew.

The dreaded Red Pearl, which would add 2 votes against the person holding it, was given. And the recipient? Seemed like Suzuki carefully weighed things in his mind because he took time in deciding on whom to give it to. When he finally gave it to Mika, the chef couldn't suppress her smile. It's as if she was so expecting it all along.

SP: Palau - I Can Hear You

Shaun had stomach aches so he went out of their little shelter to unwind a little. Charles and Suzuki eventually had to go out also so the girls thought they were safe to talk about who among the boys to vote out.

Mika told her plan to the rest of the girls. She wanted Shaun out and she's quite sure Shaun and Suzuki had already found the Hidden Immunity. They had to make Shaun believe that the girls were with him in voting against Justine. If ever there would be a second elimination like last week, they'd go for Suzuki.
Little did the girls know that Shaun was within hearing distance.

In the end, Mika was still able to reverse the situation. She told Shaun that she only told that in front of Justine to make the transsexual castaway believe that they're not voting for her.

Shaun still trusted Mika after all that. He trusted her enough to admit to her that the Hidden Immunity Bracelet was with him.

Justine, meanwhile, was making a move to save herself from eviction. She told Charles that the girls were going straight for Shaun, and that he and Suzuki should do the same. But then Justine told the girls not to vote for Shaun because it was the obvious. Shaun would surely use his Hidden Immunity Bracelet making the votes against him not counted.

Justine was feeling the pressure. If Shaun would use the bracelet, the castaway who would get the second highest number of votes would be evicted. So she's trying to make the other castaways to vote for either Shaun or Suzuki.

SP: Palau - Charles Wins Immunity

Immunity Challenge time once again and the 7 remaining castaways were given body paints in different colors. They had much fun painting themselves, as much fun as they had hitting one another's plates. The plates also had 7 different colors matching the color of the castaway's body paints. The castaway with the most number of remaining plates at the end of the game, wins.

It was a triple tie between Suzuki, Charles, and Mika, so they had a tie breaker. The boys ganged up and at the end of the round, Charles had the most number of plates left.

Suzuki and Shaun still wouldn't tell Charles about the Hidden Immunity they found while the rest of the castaways were enjoying their rewards. But Mika felt it. She was sure that the two had the bracelet. And they wouldn't tell Charles because the two knew that Charles was tight with her.
The three girls - Amanda, Jef, and Mika - talked about who to vote out on the next Tribal Council. Amanda and Mika wanted either Justine or Suzuki. But Jef, though she didn't tell the other girls about it, was firm on Shaun. It seemed that she's having a mind of her own. And now she's saying that Suzuki doesn't know how to play the game and just goes with whoever they tell him to vote out. But she's friends with Suzuki and she doesn't want Suzuki voted out.

SP: Palau - Hidden Immunity Found!

Justine, Jef, and Mika went to see the president of Palau while Charles and Amanda went for a boat ride.

Shaun and Suzuki meanwhile busied themselves in looking for the Hidden Immunity upon arriving at their camp site. Suzuki immediately saw a bottle containing another clue which said that the Hidden Immunity could be seen if one would lie down on a log. This gave them the idea that it's hanging on a tree. They didn't really have to lie down on it because Shaun spotted it right away.

Justine, Jef, and Amanda had fun talking with the Palau's president with the free coffee and muffins that Amanda couldn't resist. They also visited a chieftain where a feast was prepared for them.

Likewise, Amanda and Charles enjoyed jestskiing and being served like real tourists by no less than a Filipina waiter.

Shaun and Suzuki burnt the clues. They didn't want the others to see those, which would lead them on in thinking that either of them already got the Hidden Immunity. They even lied to Amanda when the latter asked if they found another clue leading to it.

When Justin and the gang arrived, they gave the muffins (a take-home from having coffee with the president) to Suzuki who got nothing from yesterday's action. Or so they thought.

SP: Palau - Tara and Echo on Startalk

Survivor Philippines: Palau cast-offs Tara Macias and Echo Caseres were interviewed by Butch Francisco on Startalk yesterday.



And so many of us thought that Tara's behavior in the island was only because of homesickness, hunger, and the deprivation of stuff she's used to have as a "city girl."

But we were wrong. It's really her natural self. Too bad.

SP: Palau - Tara and Echo Say Goodbye

Not one, but two castaways were eliminated from tonight's episode.

Tara got majority of the votes during the night's first elimination. She was so bitter on her exit interview she even threatened to kill Charles and called Mika "plastik."

The castaways thought the night was over when Paolo instructed Justine to read what's written on the scroll she acquired for being the first runner-up at the most recent Immunity Challenge. The scroll gave her immunity on the 2nd Tribal Council of the night.

The castaways were made to look at the ceiling and were forbidden to talk to anyone so they couldn't plan who to vote out. But it seemed that they were thinking as one because Echo got the most number of votes.

Echo couldn't help but cry but said she wasn't angry that she's voted out. She's sad, though, for the fact that the dream to win was taken away from her. Echo said she only showed her true self to her fellow castaways, and realized that it's not always the best thing to do.

SP: Palau - Suzuki Wins Immunity

Suzuki won the Immunity Challenge. He still had the White Pearl as a token from Marvin's eviction and he had a choice to give it to someone else. The White Pearl will deduct one vote from the person holding it during the Tribal Council.

Justine, who was the last one to give up the Pandango before Suzuki, got the scroll Paolo told them about before the Immunity Challenge started. The catch, Justine couldn't open it until during the next Tribal Council. Opening it beforehand will cause her automatic eviction.
It rained hard the night after the Immunity Challenge and Justine's shelter proved not to be as water proof. But despite not being able to sleep well because of the rain, Suzuki was up first the next morning. He woke Charles up so they could talk about the second clue he found on the shore the day before.

When Shaun woke up and was searching for a place to do number 2, he spotted Suzuki and Charles talking. The two also saw Shaun approaching and they hid in the woods to talk about what to do. Suzuki, sincere person as he was, decided to tell Shaun about the clue he found. Also, he talked to Shaun about their supposed alliance. Shaun told Suzuki and Charles that he's with them but Charles wasn't convinced.

Jef, on the other hand, was beginning to have second thoughts on Shaun. The feeling started when she noticed that Shaun suddenly became the one in control. Shaun got the boys to side with him, and he also got the girls' trust.

Tara was also making alliances - with Suzuki and Charles, with Justine, and with Echo.

Will Shaun find the Hidden Immunity? Will they vote Tara out as planned?What will Jef's reaction be when she sees Marvin all cleaned up as the first jury? We'll find out tomorrow at the Tribal Council.

Tuesday, October 13, 2009

SP: Palau - Hidden Immunity

The winners of the Reward Challenge, Shaun, Mika, and Jef, went to the jelly fish farm while the rest of the castaways search for the Hidden Immunity.

Amanda saw a bottle floating in the water while she and Echo went for a bath in the sea. Amanda really wanted to find it herself just so she could give it Shaun in case the latter didn't win the next Immunity Challenge. They were trying to make the girls believe that there really was a girls' alliance that's why they wanted to Shaun to always have immunity just so they wouldn't have to explain to the girls why they didn't want to vote Shaun out.

Shaun, Mika, and Jef arrived from their reward and the other castaways decided to tell the three about the Hidden Immunity. Echo, though, didn't tell them about what she and Amanda found in the sea. It's their mutual agreement to keep that information to themselves so they could have the edge in finding it.

Echo was starting to have doubts about the girls' alliance. She was starting to have another plan - Koror alliance.

Despite her agreement with Echo, Amanda told Jef and Amanda about the bottle and the clue it held. She also told Shaun about it the next day, even telling him that she wished he'd be the one to get it.

Shaun, on the other hand, was okay with the idea of the other castaways getting the Hidden Immunity. Just not Tara.

He and Tara was never in the same tribe before the merge so he really had no reason to go against her. But then perhaps Shaun wanted to vote her off because of what the others had told him about. That, or because Airai and Koror would be on equal grounds when Tara goes? Four versus four.

It's Immunity Challenge tomorrow. Who's your bet?

Saturday, October 10, 2009

SP: Palau – Goodbye, Marvin

marvin 09oct09Marvin knew it. When Paolo asked him if the original Koror hadn’t thought of eliminating the Airais one by one since they outnumber them 6-4, he said there’s no more Koror and Airai at this point of the game. He even said something about you really wouldn’t know if what the other castaways are telling you the truth when it comes to making alliances.

He also somehow knew what was coming because Jef avoided him the whole day, which was suspicious because the two had this special friendship going on.

Marvin had the chance to give out a Black Pearl and a White Pearl to his chosen castaways. The Black Pearl would add an extra vote to the person holding it in the next Tribal Council, while the White Pearl takes away one vote from the person holding it.

He took a long moment to think of whom to give the Black Pearl to. In the end he handed it to Mika. The White Pearl, on the other hand, went out to Suzuki.

SP: Palau – Poor Tara

After the Immunity Challenge, Sonsorol ate what has left of the feast from last night. Everyone was either talking or laughing aside from Tara who seemed to find it hard relating to the other castaways. Tara said she didn’t want to joke around a lot because she didn’t want to become the center of attention or be joked upon. But she’s so alone no one wanted to talk to her but Justine at one point.

The Top 10 walked around to explore a bit of the new island and were soon seen in twos and threes. Amanda and Charles were even holding hands while walking and talking. Charles gave accounts of what Tara did to him and Amanda in their last days at the Airai camp. Amanda almost couldn’t believe it but was so thankful she was never put in a tribe with Tara before.

Echo was so transparent with who she wanted to vote off. Charles also wanted to vote Tara out and Amanda just wanted to go with the flow. Mika, on the other hand, had different views. She wanted to vote off Suzuki so that Echo would have one less alliance in the old Koror. Mika also wanted to eliminate Justine and Marvin as soon as possible because they’re a threat to them physically.
Marvin found what Louie had written in his notebook – and it’s a poem in Tagalog, which the castaways found surprising. All along they thought Louie was a bully that’s all brawn and no brain. But listening to Marvin read the Louie’s poem, some of the girls were convinced that the personality Louie showed them in the island was just his strategy and not the real him.
