I think it is worth pointing out, with the new, much clearer picture of the new idol, that it is not made up of seeds and has a very intricate (and clearly premade) medallion on it. Where on earth would Bob find these items if he were to make the necklace?

My biggest question is why is Bob lying to Corinne again? They don't need to in order to get rid of her, if the Fang 5 stick together. I personally think that Sugar and Matty are making some kind of move to blindside Ken. For one thing, Ken and Crystal are the twosome that everybody should know needs to be broken up. Secondly, Sugar has to think that they are going to try and get her soon to take her immunity idol out of the picture. So, if they are making a move, they need Corinne and Bob to join them. Or Susie I guess. Still, I just don't understand why Bob would need to lie to Corinne again unless it was to hide the fact that the idol is actually from Sugar.

A possibility is that there is a second HII AND Bob lies to Corinne to explain what happened with Randy ("I thought the idol from Marcus would work, but it was fake!"). They could be two separate moments (or Bob only explains it to her once he gets the new HII).

On his trips to Exile: the clues have ropes and beads and stuff on them. Easy peasy. But he's a dope to try it again on Corinne. The problem with his story to her is that if he KNEW there was another idol and he KNEW the location and had access to it, how the hell does that explain the fake one he handed off to Randy? Bob is digging himself a hole. He figures it worked once, it could work again, but I don't think the second time will fly.

That is true. The problem, however, is that there are no large medallions on the clues -- hence Bob's original fake idol having a rock he buffed as its main piece. This new fake idol (1) has an intricate center piece, (2) has many, many more beads than the first and (3) has no empty space shown on the string (making me wonder how Bob would tie it). Ignoring the medallion, it looks of much, MUCH higher quality that his last fake idol, and that one was well, well done. But with the medallion...well...it is obviously not certain, but it seems plausible that a new idol was put out there. It is possible that a new idol was placed out once they merged. After all, Bob made the fake idol, came back, and they merged. I don't remember from the episode if they showed what Bob did when Kenny sent him back to exile at the auction...but it is likely he chose leisure. Or, hell, maybe Bob found the idol then, and they didn't show it. Unlikely, though.

Either Bob is a master jeweler -- or -- he is sent back to exile this week (likely, considering how they've been repeating exiled castaways), finds a newly planted post-merge idol, and shows it to Corinne.
