Since this is an Entertainment Show, not a Game Show, Survivor could easily hint to Russell where it is and get it on film when he finds it. If I was responsible for the Series I would damn sure manipulate it to keep the only interesting player in the game .... just saying!Hey, Big Brother did it this season (giving Jeff the "Wizard Power").

OMG! You people cannot be serious about this "Russell is a plant" conspiracy theory?
Like really? Really? |

FWIW, while I agree Survivor loves their own hype, there usually is a nugget of truth in the hype even to those of us who go to great
lengths to figure out the episode well before it airs. Therefore, I would find the episode a bit lackluster should a former FF leave although logically it
would make the most sense. Yet when I expect the logical to happen, the contestants never cease to amaze me. I'm going to assume at that moment that for
there to be some hype (and to maybe give some more weight to Jeff's parting TC words about first blindside) that another potential blindside may occur. I
forget which season it was since blindsides are all the rage now, but Jeff made comments about blindsides and we usually saw quite a few of them after he
mentioned it. A FF would not really be a blindside (I realize that in the most general terms a FF being voted out could be tweaked to justify a blindside) but
I'm going with the notion that another Galu won't see something coming. Plus Russell, as we know, is like a pitbull on a poodle - once he has an idea
about someone or something, we have heard him gnaw on that sucker. The whole "cracks in the armor" at Galu is a big storyline and Laura is
Russell's poodle. I don't see him letting that one go and we already know that John and Shambo are quite willing to get rid of her. Unless I am
mistaken with the numbers, the FF four and those two Galu are enough to get rid of Laura.

I definitely agree Trixi, I feel another blindside is on the way - specifically one of the Galu Coven of Kelly, Monica, Laura.

As JT4ever noted in Spoilers they had to votes to dump her last week. We've heard at sometime Shannon flips. This would be a good time. They dump Laura
or other Galu and all of a sudden it's 5-5.

Yea, I could see that. We see Dave and Brett trying to pull the Galu's back together to start booting the Foa Foa's. I can see Shambo and possibly
John, not going for it and joining the Foa Foa's to boot Laura in a 5-6 vote.

Yup. It's Laura | ||

Yeah, this is all soooo Laura. As Snews used to say, "Just think who the most logical boot would be," and usually that person would go.
Also, applying the OutFrontGirl(*waves*)Theory, Laura IS in the previews. Also, JP slipped in his blog this past week and said "Erik never saw it coming. Neither did Laura." Then it was deleted. It's not there now... And why do I keep thinking they watched Tocantins? But they couldn't of, right? I mean, Russhole is doing what Wizard Stephen had the Jalapoa3 do, which is to make friends separately with individual groups. Mick had his group, too, we just weren't shown in except in the Insider. This is SUCH a copy of Stephen's strategy, I would sue Russhole for theft of what do they call it? Something content? Intellectual content? Somebody will fill in my blank. |

Posted this in spoilers:
- missaye said that this weeks episode was the big episode for something to go down. - she also said that at final 10, there was a tie. - there are 11 people left. - two TC's with a tie in one of them would be a lot to show. - there is still this mysterious tribal council bypass that hasn't come into effect yet. - perhaps one tribe member bypasses tribal council, which would leave 10 voters and that would account for the tie. |

Probst's tribal council tour video.
He says there's one more thing about tribal council, and it said something like "Bypass Rule 113" or something like that, and just as he started to talk about it, the video cut off (on purpose). But we haven't heard anything about a bypass rule yet. |

With the theme this year of pick the tarp or pillows....chose points or the match you just made...could they extend it to whoever winds the RC has the choice of going on reward or not being present at TC....would be a no brainer choice for me but you never know what they might do if that was presented to the winner....R |

While moving one TC closer to winning it would also PO your group and come back to haunt you. If the survivor feels secure why not take the reward and help out at TC with your vote? But then as last week shows "Nobody is safe at TC" |

I think "Bypass Rule 113" was a throw away line in a promo

Book Laura this week, and then rout foa-foa and the Galu boys would see a straight path to F3. Shambo flips next week gives foa foa a huge strategic advantage IF it's a secret until the vote because Galu would be targeting Russell, and foa-foa expecting the tie would target the weakest member of Galu - one who can't start fire or anything. Flipping now makes little sense unless two flip and that's harder to pull off, especially when John is in the F3 alliance with the other Dave and Brett, with a real shot at pulling it off if they booted Laura and the routed foa-foa. Flipping to foa-foa would offer little security and a much harder path to the f3 for John. |

I expect a tie to occur. One of the 11 (possibly Shambo) has a stray vote from the others and there is one BIG ASS TIE.
