Unless Aubrey manages to appeal to Tai's emotional side in next week's episode, it is literally almost impossible to stop the three men from taking over and winning this entire game. Their best bet is to send five votes to one of those guys. Super idol is played and then it's 4-3 the next week.
If they just gut one of their own (which would be beyond stupid since the idol can be played
after the votes), it's game over. It would be 4-3 next time, but then the super idol threesome can just play the idol on themselves or anybody else that is getting voted out, nabbing themselves a 3-3 tie for the next week or a 4-2 lead if they play it on someone else.
Truthfully, I think the concept is kind of bullshit, because it's so hard to figure out just what the hell is going on if you have never heard of a super idol. I doubt they would have cut Debbie loose tonight if they knew the damage this idol was capable of...
- Women probably would have beat the men in that reward challenge had Debbie been throwing from the beginning. That would have been so
- That immunity challenge was a piece of garbage. The fixtures were too cheaply made (I guess that's the point since they're supposed to be easy to trigger the dominos), but it made for a lot of bad luck trying to get the pieces to all fall in succession (I noticed the wind was blowing quite a bit as well). Julia at least realized that centering her shot was of vast importance and perfectly knocked everything down.
Now that they're down to 8, it would be the perfect time for Julia to jump ship and also would make Tai
a complete fucking idiot if he weren't willing to stick by the brawn men until the end. Julia gets a free trip to the final four and even the final three if Scott and Jason think Tai is harder to beat...while Tai gets to the final four with three people he can easily defeat. And they'd all be just one immunity challenge away from the end...
...in theory. Since we all know this sucker has to end with a Final 2 this year.
