E.g., He says it was her idea to get the idol from Marty, but she let Sash execute: "Brenda could have two idols right now....Instead, Sash gets the idol and now has the opportunity to win favor with Marty by keeping his word. It’s a huge move for Sash and a potentially big mistake by Brenda."
Re Sash: Jeff says his Freudian slip "was the single biggest mistake of the game so far."
Re Brenda and Sash: "Brenda and Sash are a pretty good team and right now seem tough to beat so long as they don’t turn on each other."
Re Jane: "I think Jane could get far in the game but the chances of her self-destructing are very high. Still not sure I’d keep her around though – she is extremely likable and if she does get to the end – write the check."
Re Chase: "A lot of people are bagging on Chase because of his inability to make a decision or stick with an alliance, but when Chase starts talking about his dad and their relationship he sucks me right back into liking him. Don’t let him get deep into this game or he could win his way to the end."
Deleted scene = Holly talking about how the shoe incident with Dan is all in the past because they've bonded and like each other. She says that she is like the "mom" of her tribe and Dan is like the dad. She says "the kids" love to hear Dan's funny stories about his Ferrari and Hummers, and he's promised to fly them all out to NY after the game.
