Samoa episode 7 detailed boot spoilers/ speculation |
 This
episode should be taking care of the final pre-merge boot, before
the merge at 12, and was necessitated by Russell Swan's fainting
and removal in the (unfinished) Ep6 RC.
Who's most at risk? Well, Shambo was
the slam-dunk Galu boot up until Ep6, when an alliance grew up
around her, much to her own dismay. That would put Monica on
the low end of the vote totals, if Galu returns to tribal council.
Liz was the decoy boot in
Ep5, although it was clear from the hilariously
dated clips used to build that storyline (some of which were
from as far back as Ep2, when Russell didn't have his swimsuit,
and was nearly clean-shaven)
that either Russell has been nursing this grudge for a while,
or he initially thought of it, but had bigger fish to fry, and
has all but forgotten it. Either that, or he's just getting around
to planting his "Russell seed" for the Liz boot. Probst seems
to think so in his EW blog, anyway. Still, as of late Ep6, Liz
and Natalie were both resigned to one of them being booted (and
since we think Natalie may be the winner*, we're guessing she
isn't booted).
Then there's Jaison,
who seemed perfectly safe in Ep5, after coming close to quitting
in Ep4, which got Russell's ire up. After admitting in the Ep5
tribal council that he trained for the U.S. water polo team,
he now may be a traditional circa-merge boot target, for being
too strong. Still, as of the Ep5 story, he's a less obvious target
than Liz. Prior to Ep5, missyae said
he's the last person to get booted, pre-merge. But following
Ep5, the missyae line
is that Liz gets the boot, instead.
Update: Never
mind, Liz appears to be correct.
* Natalie got an apparently inaccurately positive edit in Ep5's
Gross Food challenge, since her attempt at downing a smoothie
was edited out completely (but present in the press
photos,
oops), and Ashley hinted that others had trouble with the smoothies
in her interviews. Update: Jaison confirms
this in the "Foa Foa's Bad Break" video on the CBS site: "Last
time it was the food challenge where we had to chug the disgusting
stuff, and we all know Natalie and Ashley aren't gonna be able
to do that. So, you know, we're out on that."
Natalie also got a solo headshot as Probst
said "turn this game around" at the Ep5 tribal council, and
got to allay
Mick's fears of a post-merge decimation of Foa Foa in Ep6. Not
to mention that Probst keeps mentioning her, for no apparent
reason, in his EW blog.
