Big episode last week. This season has been phenomenal so far, let's hope we continue the trend. This week's power rankings are banking on it.

 Orkun (fantastic name btw): 

1) Kelley Wentworth - My girl Kelley can do no wrong in my eyes. No chance in hell was she going to end up on the wrong side of the numbers, no matter what. She's appearing to be a minimal threat to the majority alliance and has plenty of means of breaking it up when the time comes. Rock on.

2) Kimmi Kappenberg - 

3) Keith Nale - I actually have something to say about Keith, albeit small. Keith is seemingly confirmed to be with Kelley Wentworth and is also supposedly under Jeremy's wing. He's in an excellent swing vote position.

4) Kelly Wiglesworth - Aren't you glad you voted her on? I'm not.

5) Stephen Fishbach - He's bided his time long enough. If there's a move to be made, it will most likely be engineered by Fishy. We've seen intense emotion and drive for the game and if Joe loses another immunity, Jeremy isn't going to stop Stephen from taking out the golden boy this time.

6) Jeremy Collins - I don't think his alliance is going to survive much longer fully intact, but Savage is more of the de facto leader and Jeremy does have an idol. By those facts alone Jeremy reaches the top half of the power rankings. Then again, Savage has been playing up his more docile side. This will be interesting.

7) Tasha Fox - I think it's fair to say that Tasha has a temper problem, even if it's just with Kass. She did nothing to help her case by arguing with Kass the way she did, and frankly I think Kass was right in the things she was saying. Tasha survived last week only because of the poor gameplay of Kass. She's just below Jeremy because I think they're in the same position in the game, but that darn idol in Jeremy's pocket makes it difficult to put him below Tasha.

8) Abbie-Marie Gomez - If loose cannons and floaters are the targets, Abi is going to be lucrative prey. Eventually.

9) Andrew Savage - He's doing everything right, it's just a seemingly inescapable stigma on his part that he will inevitably be seen as the leader of whatever alliance he's in. Unless the other players can see through the facade to notice that Jeremy is really the one with the most power, Savage is looking down the barrel of a loaded gun.

10) Ciera Eastin - I don't think this season would have such a predictable episode in it that Ciera would go home right after her buddy Kass, but you can't argue with the facts. She's made an enemy out of powerful players and has announced to the heavens her willingness to betray her allies. Not to mention that on-the-fly antagonism of Savage. I don't think that recklessness will pay off.

11) Spencer Bledsoe - He remains in the middle and therefore remains an easy target if the Bayon alliance sticks together but wants to target a more rounded threat than Ciera, and his buddy Joe wins another immunity.

12) Joe Anglim - Hey, remember last season when you did all of those amazing things that made everybody want to vote you out ASAP? You've now officially done all of those things again but even better, even faster, up against way bigger competition and with a MUCH longer road ahead. And you didn't even need to win. Maybe Spencer does have an accurate read on Joe's intelligence.

 Obituary: 

Kass McQuillen - A fantastically entertaining player to watch. Unfortunately it seems Kass doesn't actually have the greatest game sense. I'm very disappointed to see her go, but if someone like Kass is the first merge boot, I have even higher hopes for the gameplay in the coming episodes.
