I think it's counting the number of confessionals they have in each episode.

He was being snakey and flippy-floppy for weeks and his tribe lost a lot of challenges... not much to read into methinks.

I've got no love for Rob generally, but I was actually sad to see him go. Maybe just because it sucks all the older players are getting bounced.

Naw, Adam got that special shot today of him goobering out in the voting booth and that's an irrefutable sign of a winner's edit. My poison Adam beats my pony Parvati in the dining room with a candlestick. I mean... crying.

If anything, Yul is getting the sweetheart's edit.
But that has more to do with him being a genuinely magnanimous person and not a little dictator like Rahb.

I mean Rob basically has a second person effectively gathering advantages for him in exile. Not that she's a TON of help, necessarily.

Rob didn't tell Amber he was going to be on this season either and she's not too happy about it!

They do have an EoE alliance built in, so I'm looking forward to friction with Tyson who would care about it. I wonder if EoE Rob is chill enough to endear himself to the others for that sweet sweet extinction win?

Yeah it was definitely a tough sell to have Adam and Ben think “oh yeah let’s just do this poo poo for 27 more days and then give Rob the prize that’ll be fun and not miserable at all”

and sandra sneaks through another episode unscathed. Get it, girl.

Rob’s only real play has always been fear and it’s why he couldn’t win until they stuck him with a bunch of beta dorks.

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

Rob's Godfather routine seemed both kind of his only play there but also hopeless and doomed. I mean, I wouldn't have been THAT surprised if Ben and Adam went with it but way too much pride and history and valor in voting out Boston Rob vs doing what he says. I don't hate Rob, I'm content if that's the end, but I'm not sure if he really had another move there and its not even really his fault that Ben and Adam weren't with him. Ah well. No one's gonna cry for Rob to get a 6th go.

WHAT THE gently caress WAS THAT MONSTER CRAWLING THING AHHH MY NIGHTMARES!

Penner. :( I love Yul. I'm glad he still seems like a good and smart guy. It would have hurt if he showed up and was an rear end in a top hat.

And yeah, that socially dysfunctional tribe was amazing. What a perfect divide with Wendell/Michelle, Parv/Nick, and Yul/Parv. Who would have thought some of the best entertainment of this season would have been Michelle and Wendell having turned out to have a bad fling and tons of unresolved anger? Between that and the Rob/Ben/Adam trio that was a hell of a split.

thought on tonights vote based on next weeks preview, only in spoiler because i know some people dont like previews:

I think Ben and Adam made the wrong move for their game chances. Preview says both losing tribes at the immunity challenge have to go to tribal. So they have a 2/3 chance of going to tribal, and the girls won't vote for each other. So if they lose one of Ben/Adam is going home. If they go with Rob, even if they lose they have a better chance at the easy vote out of Sarah. I know they couldn't have known next week was losing two tribes go to tribal, but I think they should expect a twist or double vote or even just looking forward to the next vote. Rob wouldn't turn on them.

But that's me being disappointed rob went out, so here we are.

He would turn on them in a loving heartbeat and he's finally on a tribe where everyone knows it.

I think Ben and Adam probably made the right move. Besides just getting out Rob. Rob might have stayed "loyal" but it would have been on his terms and they would have just been numbers to him. Their bad position is of their own making but they can theoretically start over with Sophie and Sarah so... worth a try, I guess. You might have had a short term future with Rob but no long term one.

Yeah I think that might have been the most straightforward vote all season (other than maybe his wife). If he manages to stay in the game, it's going to build up his resume pretty much by default. There's no reason to keep him around.

There was a shot of the tribe hunting for idols with Adam following Rob like a dog on a leash. WTF Adam why are you just watching Rob hunt for an idol,

So thank you Sophie for bringing back rational thought and strategy to the inept duo of Adam and Ben.

Also, saw this on social media and wanted to share.

Tyson's comment about firewood was at the end of last week's episode.

I'm ok with them not showing any edge stuff this week because of how much was going on in the actual game.

But with sports being canceled soon CBS needs to step it up and give us longer episodes

Tokens. Rob had two, so along with Ethan's and her own, Parvati has four Fire Tokens.

Now, if only she could buy something useful with them!

Someone beat me to it, but I think there have been a couple other machete-sharpeners and they go home or people get heck of annoyed at them for it. For some reason I even want to say barbie-Ken dude from a few seasons back did it too?

Re: Tokens, has anyone really even used one yet? As I recall they've all been like conditional gifts from EoE, "here's a secret advantage but u have to give us that token." That basically just feels like normal giving a person an advantage so far.

So, getting rid of Rob in hindsight is probably the worst thing Ben and Adam could have actually done for their game. But sadly, they are unaware of the impossible battle they have now if they go to tribal... Sarah has a steal a vote and Sophie has an idol :lol:
