IMO, its going one of three ways. The obvious way, where if it goes down this way, the editors need to be shot:
4 - Erinn 3 - Taj Final 2: Stephen/JT, with JT winning. Almost equally plausible, given how Probst talked of a betrayal, and I don't think the editors would be that bad. 4 - JT 3 - Taj 2 - Erinn 1 - Stephen Slim chance: 4 - Stephen (Due to firebreaker hints) 3 - Taj 2 - Erinn 1 - JT |

I predict Erinn wins the Spider challenge, so I'm going with 2.

But Erinn doesn't fit with "the F2 turn on each other" clue.

That's not a clue, that's just promotional hyperbole.

Or creative embellishment? I think we can also take with a "grain of salt" the "shocking vote", the "lie", the
"distrust" and conclude that they may be just a wee bit overstated. Although it may seem a foregone conclusion that JT/Stephen make the final 2
(which I do believe will happen) the producers need to make people that the drama didn't leave the show even though the "drama queen" did.

I'm not sure about which scenario Chapera lists that will be the one, but I do feel the editing in the last 5 seasons has been bordering on the pathetic.
Having said that I think it will possibly be this order: 4. Erinn 3. Stephen 2. Taj 1. JT But I've been wrong so many times............. |

If new deals are struck, etc, anything could be possible. Heck, we even have Erinn in an insider video taking credit for some of their plans and saying she's finally going to be able to tell the jury on day 39 ... if Stephen or JT don't feel the same way, they may cut her down, or Erinn may downplay the other person's credit. Who knows. |

Taj and stephen have been allies since the beginning though.
Maybe it will be: 4. Erinn 3. JT 2. Taj/Stephen 1. Taj/Stephen Or there's the possibilty of Taj siding with Erinn: 4. Stephen/JT 3. Stephen/JT 2. Erinn/Taj 1. Erinn/Taj I hope its the second one. Taj rocks and she could probably beat Erinn. |

1. Taj is not winning Tocantins. Her edit is too weak.
2. Taj won't be facing the jury, she doesn't have jury connections or an edit that would explain her loss. |

There will be tie in the final 4, which Stephen will win, based on the foreshadowing of Stephen making fire.
There is also the possibility the women decide they need to break up JT/Stephen to give themselves a better chance at the final 2. I used to bitch in S7 how no one was smart enough to break up Romber when they had the chance. They all foolishly believed Rob would take them to the final 2. As Shii Ann would say, "Stupid, Stupid People". So even though I like Stephen and J.T., is everyone that stupid not to break them up? I guess so. Coach and his stupid "warrior" strategy, which is about as stupid as Dr. Sean's "alphabet" strategy. Isn't anybody thinking of how do "I" get to the final 2 against someone they can beat? Can't they count? With 7 jurors, that makes it a final 2. Taj thinks she has a promise to get to the final 3 by Stephen and JT. So? And then what? At least Cirie knew that she would have to be "taken" to the final 2 by the final IC winner, so she schemed and plotted against the rival "goats". IT was a great new strategy we'd never seen before. The final 3 made for a lazy game. However, with a final 2, people haven't thought through the end game and aren't plotting for it. No one other than perhaps Stephen has readapted their strategy to this being a final 2. "Stupid, Stupid People". |

Stephen is playing hardcore, he isn't taking Erinn because he likes her best. Perhaps part of his stategy is to go after her in front of the jury, and try to argue that she lied him into booting JT or Taj. Anyway, that clue doesn't fit obviously with JT winning the last 2 ICs and taking Stephen. If JT finds out about Stephen's duplciity, why doesn't he boot him? (since he can't easily find out after F3 TC). And wouldn't it only help Stephen with Erinn\Taj if it came out that he was plotting against JT? |

If Stephen and Erinn voted together against JT (let's say that Taj wins immunity), and JT and Taj vote against Erinn, and JT wins the tie breaker (which
maybe he doesn't because we have gotten all of those "JT trying to make a fire but failing" shots), Stephen could lie to JT by telling him that
Taj voted against him. I mean, they never really know who votes who.

There is so much hyperbole to these clues they could be pounded into anything.
My guess: Either Taj or Stephen commits an 'offense' by voting for the other at F4. Mostly because that's about the only way they can win. It may or may not stay a tie. Stephen is about the only one I can see planting a 'carefully constructed lie', and it probably would create some friction with JT in the Final TC. The title suggest strongly the F2 have created trust through the game. |

JT/Stephen probaly turn on each other at the final 2. Trashing each other at TC.

After one shocking vote, a seed of doubt is planted by a carefully constructed lie that, after the second vote,I don't think the careful lie constructor is necessarily one of the F2. The "seed of doubt" could have been planted, intentionally or inadvertently, by whoever gets booted at F3. Arc-wise, this would still get us buddies Stephen and JT in the final, while blaming any non-feel-goodness on a woman. |
