Hey, KB, I guess we're "cycling" together -- mentally, that is -- to borrow Janet's quaint phraseology!This title is making me even more convinced that Alex gets the boot next. If the alliance of 4 is flaunting their power in Ep 10, and Alex goes, I can see a Rotu 4-type meltdown occurring. After John got booted in Marquesas, Tammy and Robert were resentful and self-righteous about how smug Neleh, Paschal et al started acting. Jenna and Heidi will be pissed at Rob, but they will be even more pissed that Christy, Matt and Butch are in the catbird seat. Sour grapes indeed. If Rob were to get booted next for his double-dealing, Jenna, Heidi and Alex would probably have had a hand in it, so there wouldn't be any basis for "sour grapes" feelings by anyone in Ep 11.

Another "double meaning" could unfold if this episode has something to do with someone drinking too much wine (i.e. reward challenge or other occurrence) and maybe getting sick or otherwise embarrassing themself.

Or maybe Matt takes on the persona of his less-skeletal lookalike Tony Robbins and forces everyone to listen to his "Power Tapes".

The Fox and the Grapes One hot summer's day a Fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch. "Just the thing to quench my thirst," quoth he. Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch. Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success. Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: "I am sure they are sour." Moral:It is easy to despise what you cannot get. Does Rob turn against Heidi after being rejected? or Are the "sour grapes" someone's reaction to not winning the reward challenge...something like " glad I didn't win the car, it's such an ugly color..." Krautboy

I think the sour grapes are from Rob. That supports the idea that Alex goes in Ep 10. Even with all the hot guys gone, Rob STILL can't get Heidi. Rob's mindset is, I really didn't want her anyway and that leads to bye-bye Heidi in Ep 11. Jenna will avenge Heidi and take Rob out next. Then we're down to CO's final four.

That sounds absolutely perfect! It fits the Aesop definition of "Sour Grapes", it fits Rob and Heidi's character, and it fits our thoughts of a Heidi boot.
