Amanda will definitely be the one to break down next episode. I have a feeling she might be the fourth voted out. Or what if Amanda says at the F3 that she is done with the game and she wants to pull out and doesn't even want ot come back for the jury? Could possibly make it a Final 2 and could also be a reason why she was so glum at the China reunion.

Amanda and James had only 2 months to come back? That is pretty quick too. But I think you feel the effects after a month or so after returning. Remeber Sally from EI said she only started feeling sick Jan/Feb (2 months after her season finished shooting). And even Sandra wasn't able to make it back for All-Stars due to parasites or something. So I think Amanda deserves more credit than is actually being given to her. She has had it rough too. Porbst has said that China was a very tough ....season and that this one was a tough season as well. Two seasons in a row: Final Four! Longest lasting Survivor ever could possibly make it 78 Days! First women to find/play HII.... etc. I mean the woman has achieved a lot more than a lot of people who have played this game.

****** Erik says in one of his interviews that Cirie/Natalie's decision will come back to haunt them coz:
Reality TV World: So do you think Cirie and Natalie's decision will ultimately hurt them?
Erik: I definitely think it will. But they obviously weren't looking that far. They were looking at the girls alliance, and not realizing that within the girls alliance Parvati and Amanda were even closer.

Then later he says something totally different:

Reality TV World: What if she had recovered the idol? Are you confident you two would have worked together?
Erik: Yeah. I think so. I think the trust would have stayed there. The only thing that would put a doubt in my mind is knowing now that Natalie and Parv were so close. You'll see this in the next episode, how close they are. It's pretty weird.
**********************

I have a feeling that Erik is just fooling us all. I think he will vote for Cirie in the end if she is there.

I think that Erik was saying that there was a girl's alliance, but had the idol been found Amanda would have left it and worked with him. That is how I took those seperate answers. I don't think Amanda was ever completely into the girl's alliance based on her confessionals at the merge. She went along with it once Ozzy was booted for protection and numbers to get to the end.

I think next episode will at least more fully explain why Parvati wanted Alexis gone over Natalie. I always assumed that is why Parvati wanted to keep Natalie. She assumed Natalie would also take her to the end.

Reading between the lines, it sounds like Probst is saying Amanda beats Parvati in the final 2 and Ozzy's vote could be the difference.

But then again I thought Todd would lose last season based on Jeff talking about how much the jury might be angry at him. It sounded like he was saying Amanda would win last season too.

I'm just hoping Cirie can pull off the win. You can tell that Jeff is rooting for her too.

Well it is true Ozzy's vote could make a difference. Ozzy made comments about how Parvati screwed him over for money in one of his interviews. Now this doesn't mean that I think Amanda wins. I do think that if she does part of it will definately will be Ozzy trying to work the jury for her. Remember Amanda has the most pissed off bitter Juror in her corner. I do think that he has a right to be upset with Parvati but he will give the bitter Sue Hawk jury speech this year.

If Parvati loses I also think that it didn't help with her earlier relationship with Eliza, and she was aligned with Jason.
