Things are starting to clear up as we enter the homestretch. Unless they haven’t.

Medevac Scenario Game

I’ll just leave this here

Final score: Andy 4 John 3

Predictions

Andy: The temptation to flip on Tai now that he trusts them and has an idol and an advantage to get rid of will be high. But doing so could potentially flip the advantage back to Julia, whom Cydney and Aubry have been suspicious about since she ate Chinese food. Best to get rid of the threat that didn’t vote with you last week than the one who did.

John: This is really just process of elimination. None of the other candidates- Joe, Jason, Aubry, Cydney, or Tai- seem very likely. So Julia it is.

Emma: Aubry has spent the past couple of tribals thinking about voting out Julia. With Jason’s power neutered, I think the resurging alliance tables the bounty hunter for a while and cuts the best teenager to play the game.

Mark: I tried to create an elaborate fiction that involved Tai losing all of his advantages and blindsiding Jason, but I think it’ll be the most obvious choice: Julia. Her traitor story has been building for weeks, she got her loved one scene (since the actual loved ones won’t show up for a while), and if Tai and Aubry want to idol someone out, she’s probably the best target. Plus, it’ll keep Michelle open as a number, and she can then survive long enough to emerge victorious at the final immunity challenge: a Nathan’s hot dog eating competition.

Matt: Julia goes home. They have been building to this for a few episodes but Aubry and Cydney clearly don’t trust her, she wasn’t in on the plan last night, and there is going to be the thought that she is more dangerous than Jason who is marginalized.

Winner Prediction

You know, by the end of the season (or sooner!), one of us is going to look really stupid. But only one of us gets to take shots at the other via podcast.

Who was the Week 9 MVP?

As suggested by commenter Roswulf, this might be the far more interesting discussion than trying to read tea leaves on the winner. So have it, who had the best week? Use whatever definition you want to make your vote. And comment below if you’d like to further the discussion.
