We’re down to Naviti Strong plus the two Naviti-esque Malolos. Something’s gotta give. What will it be?

Staff Predictions

Andy

Through her possible connections and general lack of chill, Kellyn is the last person left in this game that could stand in Domenick and Wendell’s way. And therefore, Kellyn has got to go. The big question is how they get it done? In theory, it should be difficult to get a third Naviti (besides themselves) to break from the Naviti-strong plan while there are still two Malolos left in the game. But… when has getting some of the dead weight in this game to do anything been difficult? They voted off Chris Noble and Desiree with little difficulty (give or take an abstention by Angela or Chelsea). Hell, Sebastian targeted Jenna over Donathan for… reasons? I suspect it’ll be the same with Kellyn. Easy and uneventful.

(Note: I recognize that I’ve left an opening here for you all to try and make your point about the edit again. You’re welcome!)

Am I tempted to say Chelsea now only because it might help reduce the number of people that want to know what’s going on with Chelsea? Yes. But the easy target here for Dom, Wendell, Laurel, and Donathan is Kellyn. Once she’s gone, the path to the end is paved entirely with non-entities.

Emma

I want it to be Kellyn. You (unless you’re BD) want it to be Kellyn. The casuals want it to be Kellyn. To be honest, I even think it could be her. But I’m going to take a risk, because there’s something else that could happen here. The family visit is this episode, and that has a tendency to remind people that their in-game relationships aren’t that important (see: Survivor Philippines). We’ve also just seen Domenick say he’d be willing to cut Wendell when the time is right. Well perhaps seeing his wife and hearing about his children will make that time sooner rather than later. Especially after seeing how emotional the rest of the players get when they see Wendell reunite with (and possibly propose to??) his girlfriend. Suddenly his best pal is a big threat, and Dom is able to organize a blindside against Wendell with the help of… oh, I don’t know. Let’s say everyone but Laurel.

Matt

Say it with me now: It is Kellyn. You might think that now is the perfect time to flip the game. After all, Kellyn has been shown where she is in the pecking order. Chelsea, Sebastian, and Angela are there to be scooped up and used. And Donathan has shown a willingness to consider a flip. BUT stop that bullshit. You really think those people are doing shit this season? Fuck no. You know why you don’t hear from them? Because they aren’t considering shit. They ain’t flipping and if Kellyn goes around trying to round up numbers for an insurrection that just means they are happy to turn on her. So Kellyn will pitch them on the exact move they should make and it won’t goddamn matter, because none of Angela, Chelsea or Sebastian are interested in actually winning the game. They are only interested in sticking around for one more vote.

Mark

The show has been reiterating for weeks that “One Bad Decision Can Haunt You Forever”, so I think Kellyn‘s ghosts come home to roost and her Laurel stunt casts her out of the top 5. Anxiety minus trust equals bye. Even if it goes to a tie, I think the mute goats would jump at the chance to take some of that oxygen Kellyn sucks up. (Lol, fat chance, mutes.)
