I totally forgot to talk about TV from last week!
Survivor last week featured a 2nd completely bonehead move from Jonathan. This guy is a goner this week for sure. Here’s the scenario and how he fucked up in my opinion.
He’s already done the mutiny thing to piss off his original tribe, which was a huge mistake. Now they’ve merged and he’s not really accepted in his new tribe but they have a 5-4 advantage. He is approached by Ule about switching back to his original tribe. Ule suggests he has the individual immunity idol and would that make a difference.
In the end Jonathan is told by Ule that he has the idol and he is convinced he needs to align himself with the person that has the idol in order to advance. Technically, that’s decent thinking, so he switches and Nate is voted out.
But, what he failed to realize is that he has now betrayed every single person and has no chance of ever winning. Plus, he’s the 5th person on his new tribe. There is no way he’s not voted out tonight. They don’t need him for numbers now; it’ll still be 4-3 without him.
The one thing he should have done, but I guess it didn’t occur to him, was to tell his new tribemates that Ule has the idol and they should vote for someone else. This would have had the effect of ingratiating himself to his new tribe, plus keep their numbers up. He is already hated by his old tribe so it wouldn’t have made it any worse. As it stands now he’s pretty much screwed. I see a 7-1 vote tonight against him.

I don;t think he will be voted out but he IS the 5th person on the tribe.
HOWEVER - if he can make it to the filal two (will there be a final two??? - the numbers do not add up this time) what CAN happen is this.
Players once NOT playing forget bout how bad it hurt to get stabbed in the back and think more of "gameplay".
They will say - this guy pissed EVERYBODY off and si in the final. Great game play!
BUT - I doubt he will get that far.
How do the numbers not add up to have a final 2? There are 8 left, they'll still get down to 3 then 2 at some point. Not sure where you're going with that.
You seem to forget how much animosity is generated in this game. People don't forget, they get their revenge at the vote.
I don't see how he doesn't get voted out tonight. Unless Ule is too nice and thinks he should keep him one more week because he helped them. Personally, I think that would be stupid because you know you can't trust the guy to keep his word.
