Thanks jbug and Vince! This episode turned out to be more interesting than I thought it would be, despite the Pagonging.

- Big uptick in the Matt/Andrea storyline. Will he forgive her? Will one of them unseat Rob and/or make the finals? Sure seems like God and CBS are on Matt's side.

- Nice to see Grant finally talking strategy! But were his moves smart? Natalie sure didn't seem happy about the chocolate (although at least he explained how he wanted to keep Andrea feeling secure). And his "I love you Rob" and picking Rob for the reward should put Phillip and the 3 degrees on notice. But his sudden spike in airtime has me a bit worried for him.

- The All Stars discussion at TC was very interesting, esp. Jeff's commentary, but I feel like I need to rewatch it again before deciding on an interpretation. Would love to get others' take on this -- i.e. has Rob truly learned from his past mistakes? Will he avoid being Ambered this time? Will one of his blindsides cost him the game?

Re Next Time:
No mention of Family Visit...although we did see Ashley and Natalie crying.

The challenge looks epic....lots of stairs....Grant would seem to be a favorite, but I could also see Natalie having good endurance as a dancer.

Rob's quote about "32 days of hard work gone, just like that" seems to be ominous, but is it just misdirection?
