TV Guide interviewed Jason and he said this

"TVGuide.com: Why didn't you realize that they were going to blindside you?
Jason: I really thought that at this point in the game it was in Natalie's best interest to keep me around. The name of the game this season is Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites. I believed the whole time [that the] fans should have stuck together no matter what. Parvati did a good job of luring both Natalie and Alexis into...

TV guide also had a blurb from Jeff about the TC on 5/8 where he says, "You haven't seen the end of dumb moves at TC, "tonights episode is one where you go, 'You've got to be kidding me...this just didn't happen....how could this happen 16 season in?'"

Ozzy said he just kicked off a slew of dumbs mistakes. Jason said similar so there is more than one more...

We have heard the rumor from TV guide that another player is removed from the game do to a medical situation. We have been shown, in the previews, that James has his finger looked at by medics and some stitches.....could he be the one removed? In the new issue of TV guide (for 5/8) it shows a picture of all the remaining contestants lined up for a challenge. In that picture it shows Alexis with her knee wrapped in a bandage.....maybe her?

If a player is removed for medical...

I expect the finale to be like the China finale. One Reward Challenge (though it would have been originally meant to be the F5 Individual Immunity Challenge), and the Final Immunity Challenge, then the F4 Tribal Council and the Final Three TC.

Coming up with an extra reward wouldn't be very hard. I mean, the finale's Reward Challenge in China was just a pizza.

Well, if that was the case, they could probably take a challenge that they intended to be for immunity and just make it for reward. I don't think they'd have to drop or add anything.

I suppose they could probably keep the challenge itself the same. They'd still need to come up with a last minute extra reward though.

Interesting side note: In the episode description for the Finale on the TV Guide website it says the episode contains...

Granted, they could still do a Final 3 even with 4 people in the Finale, like they did in China, but it means that they would have had to drop one of the immunity challenges and add an extra reward challenge so they would have a challenge to show for the first half of the Finale.

They just like toying with Cirie fans' emotions.

Remember that S12 finale preview that showed Cirie's flames in the tiebreaker challenge way higher than Danielle's?

Cirie is always destined to be the "close but no cigar" player, it seems.

Only two seasons have had a final 5 -- Cook Islands and Fiji. So a final four is the norm, not an exception. Nothing odd here.

It will likely still be a final 3 for final tribal. Jeff has said that can't really ever go back to a final 2 now. Plus, having just two people at the end was getting really boring because it would be so predictable who was going to win. In China, they just did a reward challenge and an immunity challenge to make up for not...

Aren't there always four survivors in the finale?

The finale is a three-hour episode, which always starts with four players on the first hour.

One castaway loses the long endurance Challenge, and we're left with the Final Three for the second hour, facing the jury. Questions are asked, and the jury cast their votes. Game over.

The third hour is live, with Probst announcing the winner.

Nothing new here....
