I have to preface this post by saying I haven't watched the entire episode and I know I am probably going to have to eat my words later, but I had to post this before I was too influenced by editing. I had read the East Coast posts and was unbelievably excited about tonight's episode. Ozzy getting blindsided is awesome, and Cirie making it happen is doubly awesome. But I have watched as far as the part when Parvati wins immunity and I am confused about why people think Cirie is the mastermind behind Ozzy's boot. Which I know may be explained later in the episode, but as of the end of the immunity challenge it is obvious that this is Parvati's doing.

I did see the part where Cirie mentioned that Ozzy should go, but as you could tell from previous episodes, I'm 99% sure that confessional was done on a spot on the contestant island where previous confessionals have taken place by people who have never been to Exile- not on Exile. And it wasn't exactly a mastermind plan, it was a mention that Ozzy should go (which I think everyone would be thinking).

Cirie came right to the immunity challenge directly from Exile Island, right? So she wouldn't have had a chance to tell anyone her grand old plan. And yet she was the FIRST person to quit the challenge, giving Ozzy or Jason a possible chance to win immunity. She obviously cared more about her candy (which, by the way- how dumb was it to split the candy? They should have just waited and the other one could quit next and get their own full treat/meal rather than sharing) than masterminding her big plan.

According to Eliza's interviews last week, there was no way to get Alexis and Natalie to not listen to Parvati. Eliza was there and says they are totally under her spell and will do whatever she tells them....what makes anyone think those girls would go against Parvati and allow Cirie (who Eliza said they had no connection with) make their decisions and upset their Goddess Parvati? There is no way they would allow Cirie to control their decision when it does nothing to help their game in the end. Parvati is the one they trust and believe (per Eliza).

The most obvious part of all of this is the fact that Parvati stood there for SIX hours to try to beat Jason. Parvati, the girl who makes it clear at any reward that she loves food and especially chocolate. I know everyone at Sucks is really smart about the game, so I guess I am missing something, because this seems so obvious to me. Parvati was clearly trying to hang on as long as possible so that Ozzy would think she is on his team and would do anything for him. She was brilliant in feeding into his ego, he thought she would do anything to protect him. By making him feel so safe (I'm sure she was giving her flirty little "Oh Ozzy, I wanted those cookies but I can't live without you so I can't possibly let Jason win immunity!"), she was guaranteeing Ozzy would use the HII. Cirie clearly had no clue what was going on at that point since she was crossing her fingers while telling Jason he was safe- indicating she was still planning to vote for Jason.

Again, I will probably be back in 45 minutes and say I am a moron and Cirie is the one who came up with this plan, but it makes no sense to me at this point. I have been reading your posts and was so excited to see Cirie in action, but everything I have read here so far about Cirie creating the plan on Exile and then convincing everyone else to follow her lead- well, it makes no sense from the first 20 minutes of the show. Please explain and be back soon!

Your summary is pretty spot-on.
