1. I've never liked the first impressions vote(Palau) as it doesn't give everyone the same chance to play. Laura Boneham getting voted out has very little to do with being Rupert's wife and more to do with being the oldest and presumably weakest member of her tribe.

Laura Morett likely got votes for being a strong player, and Candice for being untrustworthy. Why the fuck they didn't use that opportunity to drop Colton i'll never know. Both women are better tribemates and competitors than that sniveling sinister ass.

2. Tadhana will absolutely recover from the loss. John, Brad, Vytas, Hayden and Caleb make a strong faction. 2 returnees are already on Redemption and Galang has to endure the weakness of Gervase, the evil of Colton, and the lack of Rupert.

3. The Tadhana Men will remain strong for this first part of the game. Brad is clearly the leader which may shorten his life in the game. Vytas is the only one who would vote out his loved one so he'll make a great final 3 ally for somebody. The alliance is only strong until the first shuffle...

4. I hate Colton but I don't see him getting voted out yet.

5. Seeing people cry in the preview for the next episode, i'd have to guess that Gervase is just bummed about Marissa being there, and Laura is sympathetic to John who hangs his head in shame at the elimination of his wife. So long Candace!

6. Gervase will be fine. He pissed some loved ones off but his is not a threat. He is a vote that can be used against someone who is a threat like Colton or Laura M.

great blog :)
