Nice to see that FF4 supports a Mick win if he's in the F4.

Well, Fathers simply are the best bet if they make the F-2.

Foa Foa consistently called Mick their leader.

That's true, which is strange, since the edited show hasn't shown his leadership, except in the opening episode and, I think, when he had to choose the people to go to the bocce ball tournament.

I agree that what's left of Galu is all Brothers and Sisters.
It was interesting how Galu gave consistent confessionals, after Russell S left, that told us how lost they were without his guidance.
Laura made it clear earlier in the season that she loves being one of the girls. She's a pretty old teenager, but that appears what she's trying hard to be.

Shambo is pretty role-conflicted.
She talks like a mother hen at times (like the scene at the fire pit after a TC.) But, she also clearly enjoys being the rough and ready Marine, who wants to see some military discipline in camp.

I understand the problems with Evil Russell.
He can sound fatherly in some scenes. Natalie tells Dave that Russell's the best crab catcher on Foa Foa. And despite Russell's disrespectful attitude, he does try to motivate them.

But, he also makes it clear that his motive is manipulation and control. Can we call someone Father, when they are simply playing a false role? FF4 is based on the idea that the people gravitate to family roles under the stress of the situation and isolation. Russ has never shown real concern for anyone and he's been happy to do harm and mischief if it seems to serve him.

Russel reminds me more of Big Tom. Big Tom was benign and friendly, but they both share the same ambiguous role in their group. They're fairly competent in skills and fit in, but they don't really have a core family role. You see no one seeking advice from Russell. And, as said, they have always named Mick when asked who their leader is.


Aiga (Galu branch)
M- no clear Mother.
F- none surviving.
E- Shambo (Though she is the Eccentric for the Foa Foans.)
D- Laura, Monica, Kelly
S- Brett, Dave, John

Aiga (Foa Foa branch)
M- None surviving.
F- Mick
E- Russel H
D- Natalie
S- Jaison

Family Final 6 Guess
The story tells us that the Foa Foans are the solid group, so they most likely form the core:
F- Mick
E- Russel H
D- Natalie and possibly 1or 2 Galuians.
S- Jaison and possibly 1 or 2 Galuains.

As we like to announce at this point in the FF4 season, "Let the slaughter of the Siblings begin!"

It'll be interesting to see which E survives the longest, Russell or Shambo.

Russell has the monster stage-hogging edit, but we've had many comments that have Shambo and the other Foa Foans telling us how much they like each other. Both Mick and Jaison said the wanted to adopt her if they could. "Adopt" is a pretty strong word that shows how much she must have filled a family need when she was in Foa Foa's camp.

With two Es, one must make FF6. Maybe both and only one to FF4?
