I picked Stephen because of the IC pictures. He looked "rode hard and put up wet" in the rope throw, though I can't figure why he'd part with the red shirt after RC if he was going to exile and Erinn wasn't. When is the picture of Erinn taken that we see? ... she seems all nicely put together and clean in the red sweatshirt. That doesn't fit with a bedraggled night on exile. They could have photographed her just prior to TC, and after IC after she...

The last time an exile experience was life-changing or however they advertised it, wasn't it Stephen building his fire for the first time? Just remember, the last time Erinn went camping was like the seventh grade..

I think that Sierra is a real easy boot choice for every one. She got lucky last time. Erinn would be very happy to write her name down. I don't see why Stephen/JT/Taj/Erinn won't vote her out tonight. If Erinn tries to pull something next time, there is still HII logistics that can be played. In Gabon, the HII was only good up to the Final 6 Tribal Council so if the same rules apply, it will have to be played. If JT wins the Final 6 IC, then Stephen is the most vulnerable and...

That was a terrific post Rower! And I agree with everything. It's interesting in that I am having trouble with Yuku and I am writing this from a public library.

Yeah, they've definitely left us plenty of room to speculate this week...

The thing I'm wondering today is why Coach is going back and forth telling Sierra one thing and then JT and Stephen something entirely different if he wins immunity.

Also, neither JT or Stephen can have won it if Coach is telling them that he 'told them (meaning Debbie and Sierra, I guess) that I can't do that to those boys'. The inference being that the others...

Well after being out of town for the past 5 days and catching up on all the posts - here are my thoughts. (and there are a lot of them as I try to absorb everyhting I have just read.)

There was the early promo/TV guide preview where it states that two people are left scrambling (after the Tyson boot) and then turn against each other. This was spec'ed to be Coach and Debbi but I guess it could also be Erinn and Sierra. I really don't think that Coach and Debbi would turn...

yeah i agree, i was thinking sierra might win immunity otherwise why would they target each other and not keep campaigning against her?

He could just be speaking in general terms; like he couldn't have formed a counter alliance against them. It seems as if the potential Timbira alliance happened prior to the IC, so they could have plotted against JT/Stephen then, and now Coach is backtracking.

Though I think its obvious that the exile is either JT or Erinn ... both are absent in so many scenes. JT is only visible in the talks with Stephen/Coach, which appear to be post-IC, given how much seems to be pre-IC....

Well I don't necessarily think he does win immunity but one possible reason could be is that he is trying to save Debbie from being booted by laying stuff on her then on JT/Stephen :shrug

thanks Trix!

ok, that cements it for me that no way in hell is Sierra going to join back up with Debbie and Coach. Personally, I think they're pretty ballsy to even ask her to do it after the way they talked to her last time.

Jeff shows the Tyson boot - says another blindside, a double blindside b/c Sierra thought she was going and said Tyson was whispering to her at TC saying see you later sister

Says Sierra still in this game and that vote wreaks havoc on everybody as people are saying they are upset and they didn't know and nobody can be trusted now and that gets further amplified this episode

Sierra then showing calling out presumably Debbie and Coach and daring them to...

Record number of life-changing events!!!!

I dunno. It's not like Probst is doing these things live. There doesn't seem like any way he could forget what episode it is, and no one would mention it to him so he could re-record.

So the arguing is after the reward challenge, before the immunity challenge? Or was that a concatenation of several days worth of arguing?

Erinn at exile explains the sweater. But why would Stephen or Taj pick her in the first...
