Episode ElevenMy apologies in advance if this SOTS is not up to par. Work has been completely crazed this week, so what you have here is the result of what could be accomplished during lunch hour
The end game is looming close and it’s time to take all the information, spoilers, pics, and Uncle Cameraman rumors that we have available to us and try to make the pieces fit.
For a review of what took place at Chewy Jai before the Thanksgiving holiday check out the Episode 10 East Coast Spoilers There is also a great tribal council recap thread located Recap of TC 10
So here we are with 6 left, only 1 will take the million dollars home…who will be the sole Survivor???????????
Episode Spoilers
A big surprise…and another. Ooooo, the suspense! The mystery!! So what are the big surprises? For some great speculation check out Zzz’s thread Episode 11 a big surprise...and another where it is speculated that perhaps Jake the Snake wins IC (surprise #1) and the remaining tribe members form a coupe to oust Brian. Samboohoo theorizes that this could be referring to the RC where the tribe members are surprised by a visit from someone back home (*sniffles* I’m getting all phlekempt just thinking about it) and there is mention that we may be treated to another version of Survivor: Me, My Mom and a Night in the Outback.
That brings us Episode 11 Video Caps posted by spoiler extraordinaire Krautboy!!! (take a bow Krautboy). In the video caps we are shown images from the previous episode’s tribal council, pictures from what we are assuming is the GROSS FOOD CHALLENGE, and possibly the IC relay race as pointed out by our beloved Bungler, King of the Video Clips. Challenges are elaborated upon below.

Speculation around the Web (If you don’t want to know, don’t go)
TDT – This is HOT, HOT, and HOT!!!!! Further discussion on this subject can be found in OutFrontGirls’s thread Final 2 per TDT and esquire’s thread titled Jake goes...
We’ve got two reliable resources with opposing F2/Winner picks, to quote a favorite movie it’s “A TITAN AGAINST A TITAN!!”
Snewster – SurvivorNews.net the long respected and highly touted bible of the Survivor Spoiler community has an outstanding boot sheet that has changed only a few times since the first episode. Snewster has stuck with his original pick to take it all which conflicts with TDT. Check out Snewsters spoilers and hisScorecard
Paratrooper – He’s been saying that a Sook Jai will win in the F2; this is looking less and less like it will come to fruition with Jake being the only SJ and the dominant CG alliances gunning for him.
Alliances
We need to take a step back and look at a thread started by mindella27 called Chewy Alliances Revealed
We’ve got some incredible theories by Bebo, munson, and ulalame on whether or not Jake will be voted out in a traditional Pagong or will the target be Brian or Clay. Guess It Rains concisely lays out what could very well be the end game.
Krautboy, Big Idiot, Brown Roach and many others have given solid reasoning for various end game scenarios.
The ShakesTheClown Alliance Theory states that MB will not reveal true alliances until absolutely necessary. Guess It Rains applies the theory here in his is there a Jan/Ted alliance?
In this thread frisky, survivormitsx, and Big Idiot create a graph that detail dominant and lesser alliances. There is much evidence given here that point to Ted being aligned with Jan, even more evidence to support this can be found on TDT prediction that I linked above.
Reward Challenge
Krautboy gives us some insight and detail on the Reward Challengethat appears to be some type of Family Visit/Gross Food Combo challenge. Ted’s brother is rumored to have visited Thailand at some point during the filming as pointed out in message on SS from Fudgenut. For the message check out RC Winner, Helen or Ted? To vote for your RC winner visit dabo at the
Reward Challenge Poll
Immunity Challenge
The IC info is vague this week but it seems to be some kind of relay race in which 1 leg is a swim challenge and the other is a leg race. There are video caps of Helen and Jan running on the beach.
S5 Ep. 11 (Wed) Preview Caps. Dabo currently has open IC Winner Poll and guarantees no hanging chads!!
Happy Spoiling Everyone!!!!
