Personally, Episode 4 was my favorite. We FINALLY got some confessionals from Desi and Roark, and Joe pulled off a beautiful idol play. Here are my thoughts on some players:

Joe: At the start, I hated Joe. I felt that he was a Tony knock-off and was a try hard. But after last night, my opinion has definitely changed. He's no dumbass, and he saved both himself and Desi, and took out a threat at the same time. I think it's likely he'll make it to the merge, but he will most likely fall between 11th-9th because of how big of a player he is.

Desi: Before the season began, My favorite was Desi. She still is, but the first three episodes never payed attention to her and it really pissed me off. I was really happy that she got a lot of screen time last night, and I am even more happy that she and Joe are now a power duo. I hope she gets far, but she might just be voted off right after Now, so I am gonna say 10th-8th for Desi.

Roark: Along with 90% of the viewers, I thought that Roark wasn't getting enough screen time and should've had more confessionals. We finally got one in Episode 4 but her tribe won immunity so that didn't really matter. I have a feeling that she won't make the merge after seeing the Episode 5 previews, where she apparently attempted to make an all-girls alliance and Chrissy told Cole. These people should already know that alliances that only involve girls or boys never work. I'm guessing she gets 12th-11th.

Cole: I had high hopes for Cole at the start of the season, but after the whole chip-bag-advantage fiasco, it's clear Cole's a dumbass. Jessica TRUSTED him, and what does he do?? Tell the entire tribe. What an idiot. Considering his physical strength, I think he will make the merge, but won't get much farther than that. My guess is 11th-10th for Cole.

Jessica: I also really liked Jessica at start of the season, and I even theorized that she was related to Alecia Holden from Koah Rong, and thought there might be a siblings twist. After that theory went went out the window, I started to look at her gameplay more. Jessica is clearly an intelligent person, She doesn't blurt out constantly and she found one person she could supposedly trust, Cole. This is clearly no longer the case, as Cole just threw her under the bus by telling Ben and Lauren. I think she will manage to get past this, but her showmance likely won't, and that could eventually be her downfall. I'm gonna say 10th-6th.

Ashley: After Episode 1, I thought Ashley and JP were screwed, but they managed to win 2 immunity challenges and made i to the tribe swap. After they were split up and she was put on a tribe with Alan, I was worried for her, but she made amends with Alan and they seemed to have the majority, after getting Devon on their side. At tribal, Jessica's advantage, along with Joe's idol, threw a wrench in their plan, and Alan was voted out. Ashley now only has Devon, and if they lose again, it's likely that Joe and Desi will vote for Devon so Ashley will be in the rock draw. Ashley could place anywhere, but I am gonna guess 14th-4th.
