So, since according to September this truly is "Peter's" Olivia, does that settle in which world we are located? This isn't a separate universe; it's just the "blue" universe, but one that is experiencing the effects of Peter being (unsuccessfully) excised?

Okay, I get it. I do recall now that he gazed longingly at a photo of a woman (right? I didn't just imagine that?). Maybe he tried to super-concentrate his own pheromones to win her heart and it didn't work?

"Castoreum [beaver scent-marking secretion] has been approved by the FDA as a food additive… commonly used in both food and beverages, especially as vanilla and raspberry flavoring."

I was wondering why they portrayed the character as deformed. There didn't seem to be any purpose to it (no back story explaining it was provided, unless I missed it). It seemed like they did it just to make him "monstrous", which seems kinda cheap.

He does give off a "Reeve as Kent" vibe.

The women's dislike for Christina initially arose from her approaching the men early and attempting to make a deal to obtain fire. Since she didn't consult with any of the other women first it was perceived as a betrayal. It was all uphill for her from there.

I think this was one of the questions when I took the SAT.

I wonder if anyone is going to reveal to the women that Alicia shivved Monica. I would think that'd be a betrayal they wouldn't forgive.

Really? D'oh! Please ignore my comment below.

Having twelve players post-merge really is novel. How will this affect game play? Interesting. Finally, a twist that really will take Survivor™ someplace new. Suck it, Redemption Island!

Oh, Colton. I kept waiting for him to pull off his wig and reveal that he's really Roger the Alien.

As others have noted, Alicia is obviously playing "The Bitch". Which is fine, these shows encourage role play.  But her act is so obvious and plodding. If she strains much harder at it she's going to pull something.

I agree that Kim seems to be getting the "smarter than the others" cut, FWIW. Which means she'll either go all the way, or be eliminated at some point as "too big of a threat".

> Kat not having a clue what acute appendicitis is…

If this show really is canned, could we at least get a 5 minute coda tacked onto the final episode with Lilien or Wynbrandt or whoever walking us through all the loose ends?

Breast. It's breast, not beast.

> I want to see Colton and Alicia eat each other

I was also disappointed, since the Clockwork Oranging was also "borrowed" for Room 23 in J.J.'s other opus, Lost. I kept expecting to see "God loves you as He loved Jacob" flash on the screen.
