Only two more votes where he can do it, so it wouldn't be a surprise if he did. Given the tenor of this TC, it seems wise.
Crazy how Jason is pretty much off the chopping block, though.
Nah, no reason to do it, given that it exposes him at F5. That's why he's busting the vote out.

The most personality I've seen from Michelle in some time.
Tai has no social game lmfao

But wouldn't that extra vote have more mileage in f5 than now?

Jason would beat Tai at the end.
Much, much less. Right now it busts a 3-3 tie in his favor. Does not do a lot at F5, while Idol guarantees F4.

I think he could beat a few of them. He can be charming when he's not being a misogynist douchebag.

Wait, how is Tai not alone? He was just exposed as having no pull whatsoever in his alliance, and he made himself look awful in front of the jury.

First person in history to ever play the extra vote and not be voted out at the same tribal council.

Survivor: Kaôh Rōng, Main Title Sequence #2
Also.. wtf Tai..
I suspect he think he needs to make a move to win this at Final Tribal which is why he tried to make such a big play this week.
Cydney is my bae.. btw!

Right play.
The advantage has no power at Final 5, because it can't flip a vote unless there's a 2-2-1 split for some reason. You need to play it at an even numbered vote.

Ah. Tai's best chance is taking Aubry and Joe. They both kind of follow along
The other women are too dangerous. But I don't see how anyone would vote Tai. He must be behind Jason and Scott on the hate list

Seriously though, her loyalty is not with Tai, he was a tool until he broke.

He's actually playing the game right. Tai knows who needs to go to set himself up for the final. But the female alliance/friendships is blocking his way.
Scust Joe is still in the game.

Trying to target Michele was the right move from an endgame perspective.
His meltdown at Tribal Council was not. He can't manage his allies very well, he always starts folding under pressure, he inserts his foot into his mouth with every statement he makes at Tribal Council, and he's largely perceived as being a wishy-washy player.
He's mostly made sensible moves from a game perspective. But the way he's gone about those moves has been exceptionally terrible.

I only want Tai to make it to the Final 3 so I can see him have a proper goodbye with Mark.
I'm sure it'll be a Top 10 Survivor Emotional moment.

Well, compared to Sidney, who is incredibly good at the game, and compared to Tai who has had a poor social game now, but a pretty good mind for the game. I could see him getting a vote out of Jason and Scott for playing the way he did.
Tai is so terrible, as I've been saying since the start.
Cydney / Aubrey are both delightful, as always.
Nice that Michelle fought once up against the wall... and it's hilarious after all of Jason's mid-episode talk about fighting until the end, he essentially got blindsided at that bewildering tribal.

Damn. Slaychele showed fire at that Tribal!
Were we meant to think she was fighting for her life and helped eke votes away from herself and onto Jason? Ironically such a firy performance would have made me vote AGAINST her, due to how threateningly passionate and defiant she acted.

She presumably trusted her alliance to keep her in the game, which explains her rancor.
She definitely made Tai a viable goat, though, and that might have been her mistake... She basically exposed him as a disloyal flip-flopper who acts like he has control, but actually has no idea what's going on in the game. No way is he going to get jury votes now...
Definitely going to have a female winner...

hahahah I love this show
You're about a week late with that, but better than never
Just really hoping they put the intro into the finale or something. I cannot understand out of an 11 hour long season they cannot spend an extra 30 seconds somewhere with the 16-year-old opening titles tradition... not even once!

Did anyone else think Tai was actually going home this episode?
The tribal council again was just odd. It seemed like the entire breakdown of tribal was all because of a conversation we didn't get shown. They usually only do that when the conversation would make it too obvious who the boot is. With how anxious Tai seemed to be it made me think there was some last minute conversation to get out Tai after he revealed his advantage wasn't an idol and he didn't have enough time to save himself. It just seemed weird that almost the entire tribal council revolved around a conversation we didn't get to see.

I was pretty sure Tai was leaving too, in a crazy 'audience blindside' with him not being mentioned as a boot target, strictly speaking, but only people discussing how they didn't like his actions.
But I'm not sure what you mean by there being a conversation not shown; do you mean between Tai and Michele?

The whole conversation about Tai and Sydney talking and them not having enough time and everyone looking confused and saying they all seemed to have plenty of time and had a nailed plan down. It made me think there was some kind of last minute group meeting and Tai was trying to convince Sydney but didn't get a chance.
Oh right, yeah of course. I thought it was fairly straightforward that Cydney was annoyed that it was "Tai's way or the highway" and Tai was (probably quite rightfully) trying to explain that he simply didn't have time to engage in any back-and-forth discussions with her. Then Michele jumped on that making a big deal out of it, and Aubry suggested it might mean Cydney is losing some trust in Tai. But really I don't think there was anything to it other than Tai mincing words (although at the time I was thinking that there was definitely more substance to the conflict and that Cydney had potentially secretly flipped on Tai).

Yeah, I'm just saying the way it all came out is what made me think Tai was going. With how the edit showed that earlier conversation it made me think there was some later conversation for show with Tai and there was no time because it was purposely last minute so Tai couldn't get wind of them actually voting him out.
