yeah, I think I was pretty dang close....so don't vote for Kim/Pinky

---

I actually had the musical answer first and musical lover told me that was not what he was looking for. So I have it even earlier if you want to go with the musical answer.

---

I really thought it as well, why my original answer was for the musical, but that was Musicallovers trick the question was who originated the role on Bway, never mentions musical so the originator was definitly in the play. I think we need to give lover major kudos on it!

---

Ok Survivors, let us take a look at the votes.
Joanne 1
Annie Oakley 2
Kim 2
Marvin 1
Trevor Graydon 2

Since there has been a tie Annie Oakley, Kim, and Trevor Graydon have an individual immunity challenge. One of them will go home tonight. The first two to send me the answer to the following three characters will be allowed to stay in the game.

Reminder of the questions for immunity
1. What musical they are from.
2. What type of role the character has in the musical
Leading Role
Featured Role
3. What importance the character is in the show.
4. Who originally played the character on Broadway (NOT THE WEST END)

Please do elaborate on question three. I didn't make it very clear what I wanted. Some people did a sentence while others did a paragraph on it. If you can tell me how important the character is in one sentence fine, if you can tell how important the character is in a paragraph then fine. The point of the question of importance is if the character was gone why would the play/musical not be able to function. (Has to be a little harder then last week.)

Characters
1. Seymore
2. Mimi
3. Your own character. MUAH HA HA

I have to run to a concert but will give the reults when I return.

8 hours and counting

Sounds great to me!
