That is one of my favorite movies. That would have clued me off!

When he started in on it I thought, "there is NO way they are that ballsy!"

Of course they were. That was awesome.

The prisoners asking if they could eat the food was amazing too. If the deaf girl could just hold it together...

Can a deaf person sing in tune? If I wasn't already suspicious about her hearing ability, that would make me start questioning her deafness.

The two Office episodes last night featured Joe Schmo Alumni. "Kip" from season one was in the first episode and applying for a job, while "Stan the interpreter" from this season was on the second episode and played the senator's assistant.

Thoughts after tonight?

The letter writing at the end was kind of weird, but production has certainly pushed the envelope on quite a bit this season which would certainly raise his suspicions. It'll be interesting to see if they make it all the way through, or their teases are just to keep us watching.

I admittedly have to wonder if he found out and they asked him to play along for the rest of it.

What I don't get though is why people walking around the back tipped him off. This would be a major shooting site and would need people walking around to check sound equipment and cameras around the complex.

I think they might have gone too far this time.

It's Pearl Harbor all over again!

I feel like the producers pushed it too far, they left no downtime. It was stunt after stunt after stunt. The urn thing shouldn't have been done. What I would have done is had the best friend on the show go up to him and question the alliance.

I dont think he got suspicious just because he saw people, i think its that he saw a guy walking around with a ladder from an area where the prisoner would have needed one.

I hope they didnt take it too far and Chase is still "in the game"

The payoff for this show is the reveal and I hope they can do it on their own terms

Also, Randy needs to be on TV. The guy is flat out hilarious. His acting and improv are by far the class of this cast

Not sure if you know this or have seen the movie but he was a local cop in the movie Super Troopers. Small role.

Im well aware of his roles in the Broken Lizard movies...dude needs to be in more

no the prisoner escaped from the first floor. He wouldnt have needed a ladder

He got suspicious because with all those people walking around out there, the prisoner would not have been able to get away without someone seeing him.

also, if a prisoner escaped, surely they would have told those people to get in a safe place, not be in the area with an escaped felon.

So who is he writing to in the journal? Himself?

I enjoy the show, but the suspense built around Joe's suspicions feel overblown. I almost wonder if the "letter" he was writing was orchestrated. After so many odd events happening so fast, a person needs a little time to process and decompress.

They are. They did the same thing in the first two seasons. The cast/producers are paranoid that the Schmoe will figure out that it's fake. What they don't realize is that most people in that situation would never figure it out, because they are so far immersed in it, and it's the last thing they would expect.

I would have enjoyed seeing the new "evil Skylar" stay in the game. I think that would have been an interesting new dynamic for Chase.

New skylar was hot, old skylar felt awkward. Randy is easily the best actor on the show.

The season started strong, but has lost some of its flare in the last few weeks by going over the top. I hope everything plays out as intended, but it seems like everything is sinking pretty quick.

agree with the above poster.... this season has lost a lot of steam for me. Just too over the top.

I still laugh, and Randy is definitely funny, but the whole scene around Wanda hitting on Randy was ridiculous IMO.

How many more episodes are there?

If I'm in that situation, I am suspicious of the individual "competitors"

I'm suspicious that the deaf girl really isn't deaf, that the Asian girl was just acting over the top, etc

I'm not suspicious of the show, I'm just assuming they brought together the most interesting characters they could because of ratings.

It's too bad Chase got rid of Randy. He was getting more awesome as the show went on.

Yeah, but Lorenzo Lamas will be able to do whatever they had planned for Randy to do. He was the perfect player to bring back if Randy got the boot.

(Hopefully no European Comfort Pouch this time though!)

Lorenzo is back baby!

Damn. Hate to see Randy go. If they were following along with season 1 Randy would have won it all.

I guess Lorenzo will be the winner now...or Chico

I loved when Chase said you could tell Chico had been in prison by looking in his eyes

Anyone notice Randy was in the corny Barbasol commercial during the show?

Last nights was exceptional!

I completely agree. It looks like they got back on track (with the exception of the failed immunity challenge). I am eagerly anticipating next week's finale and hope it is done right!

That damned llama had me in tears from laughing so hard.

They didn't reinforce those doors very well. Chase went through the first two with one lunge. There's no stopping him.

Stellar reveal tonight! Some seriously tense moments when you really didn't know how he was going to react...but it was a great payoff to see him come around and start to let the news settle in.

Involving his wife was a great touch. His reaction was priceless.

Overall great season that rivals the previous two for absurdity and laugh out loud moments. Lorenzo, Randy, Karlee, Mr. Wentworth...all quality characters that my wife and I will be laughing about for YEARS!
