Wow, thanks so much, VG, these pictures are GREAT! So, we do see Grant holding the sprint phone! And, as you pointed out, it looks as though they go back to Murlonio and use the phone. Rob is holding it for Natalie. They are watching the videos all together. This is what I love about Rob's tribes. In the end they are a very cohesive unit. They've really seemed to bond more together, with outlasting the Zaps. Rob appears to be handling this transition time well, noting to them, that one of them will indeed be going to RI. I seem to recall in All Stars that he had a very cohesive group in the end as well. Rupert and Jenna both voted for Rob, I think.
This is going to be a very emotional episode, and we all know how Jiffy loves the love. I would be thrilled to see Amber come...I'll bet that she does come....she's not so pregnant that she can't travel, and it's not that long of a plane ride from Florida...food for thought...
Do we think there will be a reward challenge and an IC? We see Grant with the phone, does that mean that HE wins the very physical challenge? I would think that the physical challenge would indeed favor the guys, especially Grant, but Rob is a hustler, and we see him at the top...in an exhausted kind of shot? Does he win? Obviously there is going to be alot of climbing up and down the stairs with planks to lay....As VG noted there appears to be at least 3 sets of treads to place...
Appears that Grant will be in yellow, on the far right, next to him in Blue is Rob. Black?, then Green is Ashley, and Orange is Andrea. So Black/Purple will be Phillip and Natalie in some order...
Phillip is next to the IN here...could he be purple, next to the IN, and this frame is flipped?
Also, look at the bump in the back of Ashley's buff...what's that? Judging by the sand on black and blues stairs, I'd say that they are both ahead of Ashley at this point. (Black=Natalie, Blue=Rob) Ashley is standing at the platform at the base of the structure here, catching her breath...
FWIW...
...I think that Grant is lower on the structure here. While I know that the camera angle is shot from above him, you can see the base of the tree to his right, you can see that it widens at the base, which is clear in this photo. There is also another tree coming off to the right of the first tree. So, it is taken more closely to the ground, at this time.
