The source for the Trojan Horse information is Maxx Fisher...and it's Maxx's comments..."It seems like a lot could go wrong", that makes me thing something WILL go wrong. If you look back at Maxx's editorial comments, I think you'll find that they consistently contain additional clues. Maxx has told us that he knows a few things about the overall outcome of the game. No sure if it's intentional, but I think some of his insider knowledge comes out in some of his off-handed comments.

Since I think Maxx has told us something will go wrong, the most likely source of the problem is Cochran. He is at the center of the Trojan Horse plan, he is the one Ozzy will give the idol, he is the one everyone else was ready to vote out until Ozzy volunteered to go to Redemption Island. If something goes wrong, Cochran will probably be involved.

Upolu is much more united going into the merge. Ozzy is trying to keep Savaii even at the merge, and it's up to Cochrane, the Trojan Horse, to gather the information needed to give Savaii the advantage.

What could go wrong?
Cochrane could get to TC and decide to keep the Idol for himself...Upolu could suspect Cochrane is a double agent and give him false information about their vote...Cochrane could decide he's tired of being at the bottom of the Savaii pecking order and consider one of those "big survivor moves" he's talked about in his confessionals...or votes could cancel when the idols get played and Savaii loses on the revote.

Not sure how things will play out, but I think when Maxx tells us..."It seems like a lot could go wrong", we should listen.
