Admittedly I haven't been keeping up with recent survivors. But wasn't Sarah the victim of a tribal where ten million idols were played? So those screenshots show Ciera facing off against Jeremy in the food challenge.

I'm not going to lie, if I got booted early especially on my second chance, I'd be bitter as hell. She should probably be careful making actionable statements but yea I can see why she's mad.

Post merge was at worst 2 votes from that time so even if it's not the immediate future, it's pretty damn close. And if even Stephen's thinking she was putting out feelers to him, it's not too hard to imagine that she was sending out feelers to more then those two.

They still kept him safe. Hell the fact that Monica voted to eliminate Kelly should tell Spencer who's back they had at tribal. As you've said, he still is somewhat unknown, no need to give him anything he could use to force a tie.

It would only be a double standard if they went to Kimmi and said "let's keep Spencer around in order to maintain the gender numbers." But they didn't not to Kimmy, not to the cameras.

I heard her confirm this on survivor talk on EW. I've heard it elsewhere too I'm just too lazy to backtrack to all the places I went.

Spencer has nobody else to go to ( I guess maybe Tasha but since Tasha's with them so it's the same thing). In a game about alliances, It's close to the middle of the season and Spencer still doesn't have a tight one. He's a very tempting proposition.

They did vote with the Bayon's alliance. Its not Kimmi's fault that Monica got greedy and started trying to immobilize forces against Jeremy way too early. Monica played too hard, scared the shit out of kimmi and got blindsided for her it.

So now that we have Monica in interviews and Stephen both saying that Monica was targeting Jeremy now it becomes more apparent why she was voted out. So her biggest problem was getting stuck on the same tribe with the wrong alpha ( one who actually socializes with everyone).

Producers have nobody else but themselves to blame. Season one was filled with regular joes playing a game. The only mactor from season was Gervase. Rich and Greg were also standouts and Colleen became a star more for her girl next door qualities then anything else. Kelly's storyline ironically enough was that she and Stacey attempted to build a girl's alliance, failed after twice getting backstabbed by Susan, became bffs with Susan then decided she didn't want to play the game and started doing what she wanted oh and had a huge public falling out with Susan.

With the merge coming up, Woo is an immunity threat and a fairly easy boot if you want to hide your alliance behind "Bayon immunity" the only other contender is Spencer but he's been known to worm his way out of tight situations.

Any survivor with a brain in their head knows that Kelly and Spence would play the idol if they had it. They did the 3-2-1 vote to avoid having spence or Kelly get smart and try to force a tie with Monica's help.

Someone with a strategy as transparent as a unisex alliance without anything to back it up other then the idea is a dangerous person to keep around this close to the merge. The other alliance could easily manipulate her into doing their bidding by voting off the males in the opposing alliance and just dump her when there's no more use for her. For the earliest example of this see Jenna L on season 1. Bringing up the idea that you're considering turning on your alliance to another alliance member on what should be an easy vote is really stupid. Try to get Spencer up and out, if it doesn't work, move on. You don't go into detail with your future plans to someone who could rat you out. It was a great move for kimmi she proved her faithfulness to her alliance and got rid of someone who was a nuisance to her. There's no detriment to her.

If you don't like someone in survivor, that's what you have to do. Otherwise, you wind up in a similar situation to Tasha, relying on somebody that you don't like to get you further in the game. That rarely works.

I doubt they'd be giving away the quit if that was the only boot.

I have to give it to Kimmi for gameplay. Not only do we see Kimmi marking Monica for death. But we even see her convincing Jeremy to sit out the IC. There was also a subtle hint that Kimmi is secretly working with Spence. She's got game this time around

I'd say a reporter's job in a city full of meta-humans is pretty dangerous. Especially when it's known that she's the hotline to Flash. I don't think they sent assasins after her, she was just somewhere where she wasn't supposed to be investigating and the bad guys/guards targeted her.

Abi could sneak in as a goat since they're setting up Abi vs Tasha in the future. But other then that I'm not seeing much else in the edit outside of the mentioned six to justify a f3 appearance.

Knowing Jeff like I think I do the five women are likely: Kimmi, Abi, Monica, Shirin and Kass.

Yep, no way around that one especially since the boot list specifically says she makes the family visit. The kass boot on that list is another one to look out for. That boot spot normally tends to be tailored towards someone who is either an immunity threat or an alliance leader. Kass is neither.

Jeff is saying that his skills aren't as obvious because he's no longer playing against amateurs. That says more about Jeremy's competition then it says about Jeremy.

I would argue that none of those are ringing endorsements. There's some interesting stuff if you combine the edit with the bootlist. The takeo five seemingly for the most part get taken out early. Jeremy loses his no.2 Stephen early and Abi and Kelley go deep. I actually want to see how that plays out.

Welcome to the game, Kimmi. Monica worked your last nerve, you wanted her gone, you got rid of her. Hats off to you. Kimmi's come full circle from her first season. It was a skee ball challenge. Not really strength related. Takeo five might very well be the five to beat they have strength, smarts and skills while everybody else in Bayon is all over the place. I was happy to see Angkor get its first IC win. Abi still brings nothing but chaos to the proceedings. I'll give her that.

I think the best part about that beginning scene was that Barry telling Iris to be careful came off more as a warning then a scolding. As opposed to last year, I think that scene finally showed the fact that Barry is finally accepting the fact that Iris is a reporter and danger is a part of the job description.

Pardon my lack of science knowledge but is it possible to freeze laser beams? Flash snatching Iris out of the air like that should've ended badly. I'm pretty sure that Gwen Stacey died in a similar way. I get that there's a meta human prison but isn't the fact that the cell itself has to be specially adapted to the Meta-human being arrested make the meta jail well a regular jail until an actual meta is arrested?
