2 questions:

#1. I don't think it even matters, i'm sure it will be a 2-2 tie. scout/twila chris/eliza. How does the tie-breaker go down again?

#2. Of all the 4298432 reality shows, is Julie the only Native American ever? I was rooting for her because of that, just because it's so rare with t.v in general. She isn't close to pure native, but it's nice to see somebody who has the same blood as me.

If Chris doesn't win I will be very dissapointed. Either Twila or Scout would be painful to see as winning this. He better kick ass on immunity challenges.

I think chris was looking forward to the final two with his vote tonight. If he gets there he wants to win, and his best shot at it is going up against either Scout or Twila so he had to keep them in the game. He didn't have a very good shot going against Julie. I see it this way...

Chris vs. Twila
Sarge = Chris
Chad = Chris
Leann = Chris (will vote along with Ami)
Ami = Chris (Didn't like that Twila swore on her son)
Julie = Twila (she resents him for ousting her) **Edit: after seeing the Early Show I can tell
Eliza = Chris (Doesn't like Scout or Twila)
Scout = Twila

Chris vs. Scout
Sarge = Chris
Chad = Chris
Leann = Chris (see above)
Ami = Chris (Didn't like Scouts nasty side according to Survivor Live)
Julie = Scout (see above)
Eliza = Chris (see above)
Twila = Scout

I think he wins either way if he can get to the final two with one of them, and the way it stands now he has a good shot at it. Scout is not going to win an immunity, so he's only fighting Eliza and Twila for that.

Eliza's gonna take it all. You heard it here first.

Why? Next person off will be Twilia. She can hardly compete so it's going to be either eliza or chris to win immunity. Chris is no way in hell going to take a tag team into the final 3 making the odds 2 against 1 on the endurance test which seems to happen in the last round. both eliza are chris will be dumb to take anyone but scout to the final 2. So winner of the last round will kill off the remaining person besides scout.

Vote will go down like this
Ami votes Eliza
Julie votes Eliza
Twila votes Scout
Chris votes Scout
LeAnn votes Eliza
Stump votes Eliza
Sarge votes Scout

agreed, Scout is useless. She's last place in every challenge possible.

I used to respect Twila as a hardworker until that stupid banana incident. She was the childish one in that incident, not Eliza.

I don't like Chris cuz I think he's a complete moron, but I'd glady have him win over Scout & Twila. I think that Chris's deception will get back to him in the end. There's absolutely no reason to play both sides when it'll just bite him in the butt during the jury (if he makes it that far).

Although Eliza isn't that great, at least she has a nice rack and she seems to be the most sincere & honest of the 4 remaining. So I hope that she wins.

No, there was a Native American girl waaaaay back when on Season 1 of Road Rules. Can't think of anyone else (so we're still talking rare).

Thanks.

I am glad that I only watched little bits and pieces during the commercial breaks of The O.C. If I would have actually vested too much time in the show only to see The Beauty booted before the episode, I would have been really pissed.

Chris made the right choice, but was a dumbass in doing it. Instead of just letting everyone know that he was sticking with his alliance, which would at least allow him to retain a little bit of respect from Eliza and Julie, he flat out lied to them. That may come back to bite him in the ass. Way to go dumbass.

It will either go to Chris or Eliza. It all comes down to who wins second immunity and takes the remaining Scout or Twila with them.

Don't forget this is on Sunday!

Right. He had no reason to lie to Julie and Eliza.

To Julie: "I'm sorry, you're getting my vote tonight. If it was a matter of keeping the person who deserved to stay the most, or keeping the person I'd like to hang out with more, you wouldn't be going home. But, its a game, and I wouldn't like my chances going up against you at the final I.C."

To Eliza: "Suck it up. I don't like Twilla or Scout either, but who would you rather go up against, one of them, or Twilla?"

Totally agree.

And I agree that he will want to go to the final 3 with Twila or Scout. If he had went with EITHER Eliza or Julie they would have had an upper hand with the women in the jury. If Chris had turned on Twila she wouldn't have voted for him.

Scenario for keeping Julie:
Chris vs Julie
Sarge - Chris
Chad - Chris
Ami - Julie
LeAnn - Julie
Twila - Julie (for stabbing her in the back)
Scout - Julie (see above)
Eliza - Julie

Chris vs Eliza
Same as above but switch Julie for Eliza.


Whereas the women on the jury can't STAND Scout or Twila - therefore Chris has the upper hand if he makes it to the final 2. He strategically did the right thing. Scout won't win immunity. IF CHRIS wins the immunities on Sunday - He's got it in the bag.

He WAS stupid for pissing off Julie though. He shouldn't have lied to her.

He DID help ensure that if Eliza doesn't get the next immunity - she's gone.

He's playing the game!

Drat. If Julie and Chris would have gone F2 that would have been BY FAR the best final 2 in the history of Survivor.

I think he made the wrong move. But we'll see Sunday.

Also if Eliza gets to the final 2 (by winning immunity) - with either Scout or Twila - she can thank Chris for her million

An Eliza/Julie final 2 would have made for an interesting jury decision though!

I'm also rooting for Eliza to go all the way! She is the most likeable of the remaining contestants.

Somehow it's hard to imagine Scout being much of a threat in the endurance test.

I'm rooting for Eliza so didn't like seeing Chris turn on her, but it's a smart move for him to go for final 2 with the others. If Eliza doesn't win immunity she's gone, but she's proved she's a very strong player so Chris might be in trouble. She'd like to go final 2 with the others just as much as he would.

Really? I honestly can't envision Eliza getting more than two votes, if even that many, in a mathup with Julie. None of the last five could have afforded going to the final two with Julie.

If I were Chris, I would now do everything I could to take Eliza with me to the final. However, I still think that if he does not win immunity he will be gone, since the women will view him as too big of a physical threat. I also believe that Julie, being the smartest imho, would have played that up if she had not been voted off.

I agree completely

I can't believe Eliza felt bad about voting off Ami at all since Ami had just written down her name 2 TC before!

Looking back, Ami and LeAnn were SOOO sooo stupid to go that route instead of Chris. If they had stuck to the plan of voting the men off, Eliza would have stayed with them. The final four could have been Ami, LeAnn, Julie, and Eliza.

They're dunces!

Chris can beat any of those three but I can't imagine he'd have an easier time against Eliza than Twila or Scout. The only person who would vote for Scout is Twila and vice versa. If he can take one of them it's done.

Chris/Julie final two, though. Man! That would have been exciting. I think people would have legitimately had a tough time deciding!
