So, this leads me to think that he knew something was going to be different this next episode regardless of which team won immunity.
My questions are:
1) Who gets custody of the water that Boran has?
2) Who gets custody of the extra food that Samburu has?
3) Is this a matter of switching one member? Or three? Or two?
4) Random, vote, or EPM choice?
If only one or two members are switched, questions 1 and 2 are easy. The team which was Boran would get the water, and the team that was Samburu would get the food. Switching three people might raise problems in "ownership".
Is switching one person from each tribe enough to break up the alliances and split friendships as promised in the preview?
