Survivor: Samoa episode 4 detailed boot spoilers/ speculation
snuffy   Everything this episode, from the title (although the hungry tribe appears to actually be Galu, not Foa Foa as you'd think) to the preponderance of Galu coverage in the ads, seems to point to Galu finally visiting tribal council this week. (With our luck, it'll solely be because of a lame double-boot episode, or something).

   Most at risk, based on the same editing pattern we used (poorly) in Ep2, which predicted Liz or Mike would be the next people out of Foa Foa, would appear to be John, Yasmin and Russell S., who were all shown reacting (favorably) to Galu's immunity win in Ep3.

   Of these three, Russell S. is an obvious choice. True, Galu will have won four straight challenges under his leadership after their RC win, but Erik and Dave both voiced (private) doubts about Russ's decision not to take a tarp in Ep3, and as outfrontgirl at Blows has documented, there's a massive downpour coming on the second day of this episode. Still, he is the chief, and it's not a job he volunteered for, so he might get a pass this first time. Give them a few more days to soak, however, and the tide may turn.
   The CBS press release may suggest more trouble for Yasmin, saying "A hungry tribe turns against the castaway who holds the secret to game-changing clues." True, this could also be Shambo, although Erik is shown helping her in the idol search at Galu camp, which doesn't seem like "turning against" all that much. Another bad omen for Yasmin, as tullfan2 points out at Sucks, is that Ben claims to have made up with her, suggesting some Ponderosa bonding (as with Betsy and Ben).
   Finally, there's overthinking, wind-direction lecturing, non-Olympic-caliber swimming John. He hasn't been seen much since the first episode, apart from doing well in both subsequent RC/ICs. So probably not this week's boot.

   We'd guess Shambo will be the decoy boot, based on her continuing storyline as the outsider underdog at Galu, and that the actual boot will be either Russell S. or Yasmin. Leaning Yasmin.

   Update: missyae claims (as a spoiler) that Yasmin leaves this week, and that the only other Galu to leave pre-merge is Russell S., due to injury. As we note in detail here, missyae has also posted a detailed list of the remaining pre-merge boots that is logically impossible. So take his "spoiler" here with as many grains of salt as you need to wash it down. In other news, Entertainment Weekly has made clear that the injury event (collapsing due to dehydration) occurs in Ep6, during the "Roll With It" challenge. If it is Russell S. that leaves, that makes him safe this week, as predicted above.
