Realistically, a shuffle-board type challenge should be an easy win if everyone is ganging up against one person. All they would have to do is knock her out every time she got close to the mark (unless she is the last to go). This makes me think ya'll might be right about JT/Stephen purposely "throwing" the challenge to Sierra. Seems plausible at least.

rower, I agree that Sierra deserves props for performing well here, as she has performed well in the past yet not won. I think that the guys just don't try so hard so as to capitalize on a situation that unfolds to their advantage. Kind of like Stephen stumbling backwards into the exile alliance and JT benefitting from Coach's odd attachment to him. An opportunity falls into their lap and they run with it. They are very good at improvising. That's why it's a last minute...

Oddly enough, I actually pictured a really caffinated person saying that when I read it, lol.

Just because I love doing this to everyone, not for nothing but Stephen has had his bag on his shoulder at the IC when he hasn't been to Exile :grin

Ditto, great spec, Birdlady.

Also, everytime they show a picture of Stephen going or coming from EI, he has a SMILE on his face...

It also appears that Tyson may have taken down his facebook page. Getting ready for the onslaught? Or avoiding it? The fan page is still there, but I don't see his personal page anymore.

Birdlady - That's priceless and brilliant spec. It would also fit the clues "soft-spoken mastermind" AND "shocking immunity challenge" Wouldn't it?

Probst says he has JT's tooth fragment in a baggie, maybe he wanted a few drops of Ben's sweat?

They get all kinds of random stuff with tree mail. Or Debbie's been on a couple of food rewards, maybe she stole a napkin...

Stephen left for exile still wearing his white headband, and sneaky Debbie smuggled her black headband out behind her back.

She apparently had a black one from the previous week, maybe she's just more discrete (not hard) than Coach.

I can't see JT being devious, I'd go with either Stephen or Tyson...If Tyson were to put the noose around his own neck that would be a sweet deal in Survivor terms.
