Survivor: Tocantins episode 3 detailed boot spoilers/ speculation
snakey   Not much to go on at this point. Probst happily mentions Coach, Sierra, Stephen, Debbie, Tyson, Taj and Spencer as key characters this season (here and here), so we'd guess they're not on the chopping block this early.
 
Skip past the italics, it doesn't look like Jalapao loses the IC this week.
    Since we don't even have much of a clue as to the IC winner, lots of variables here. For Jalapao, the most vulnerable would appear to be, in some order, Joe, Sydney and Sandy (all beloved by Carolina, so likely to miss the jury). We'd guess Jalapao is the most likely to attend, however, since the whole premise of the ads is that they're unbeatable. If so, you'd think Taj would be their target (possibly Sandy), so we'd rank the rough hierarchy of bootability as follows:
- Joe: He was the focus of a zoom shot as Probst uncovered the "twist" that a winning tribe member gets exiled. If Taj's new exile-hatched alliance somehow takes him down instead, that might work (although since Brendan is part of the "four", she's missing a vote). Alternatively, she could find the hidden idol, and play it to take him out. Joe seems destined to get beaten by exile in some way, although we're not positive it's here. For what it's worth, Joe was shown after Carolina (and before Sandy) at the end of the Ep1 IC.
- Sydney: If Taj is going to rally a counter-vote against Joe/Sydney/Spencer, she'd probably do better to target someone more expendable, such as Sydney. Although as with Joe, no obvious reason so far to target Sydney otherwise.
- Sandy: Maybe we're overthinking all this, and they simply decide Sandy is worth dumping, just as they almost did in Ep1. Although if Taj needs an extra vote to stay in, Sandy seems like a good one to recruit.


As mentioned in the IC discussion, it looks like Timbira will be headed to tribal council again.

   For Timbira, Jerry seems like the most likely one to go, apart from maybe Tyson, all based on Candace's apparent preferences, post-game. (Also, Probst failed to mention Jerry as a major character, whereas Tyson got Probst's blessing). In game, however, Erinn and Sierra seem like the obvious boot targets (and in fact, Probst's Ep3 preview shows Coach talking to Tyson, discussing booting either Erinn or Sierra).
   Brendan's alliance has to factor in here somewhere, too. He could in theory be a target, especially if he blows the IC for them. Can he find a hidden idol? Can Sierra? Can they start cutting through the haze of Coach's alleged competence, and take out him or Tyson? Hell if we know.

  But really, there are any number of scenarios we could dream up. We're leaning toward Jerry, although Tyson or Coach would be way more interesting.
