OZZY: If "information is power," then that would bode well for Ozzy, who either said or insinuated that he would befriend whomever arrived at RI and then send them on their way.

I think the fish-on-the-beach was supposed to symbolize Ozzy (the fish), on the beach (RI). He wasn't being grilled. He wasn't dead yet (but yeah, you don't want to be on the beach too long if you're a fish/Ozzy)

SOPHIE: Sophie has had a terrible edit. If she wins, she'd be right up there with the other invisibles (and actually, which low-key/low-totem person does she compare with? natalie? sandra? fabio? danni? I'd say none-of-the-above and probably add her to her own category). She hasn't been shown as being involved. We're insinuating that she talked Albert out of going against the grain, but with Albert being shown as a thinker, I'd be more likely to believe that he's leading her, not vice-versa.

COACH: Coach is in an awesome position to win. I don't know who would vote for him, since he'll have to betray people to get to the end, but he's looking at good odds if he's with two Upolu (Albert & Sophie?). His drawback is that he's led by fear (as already noted), and that usually doesn't get you to the million dollars (who would be equated? Rob? Brian, maybe? Richard? All of them used smooth-talk more than fear...)

COCHRAN: Cochran's edit keeps getting worse and worse. I totally noticed the "I'm not giving you lip service" line from Dawn, and saw that she was clueless that he was doing just that to her. He was overwhelmed at checkers (CHECKERS?!), and although I also picked up on the "well, he's not here to play checkers, like Boston Rob wasn't there to play that beachgame he made up," I thought it was different in that Rob knew he wasn't really winning that game, while Cochran seemed genuinely shocked at Albert's move... The difference between someone who has their eye on the final prize, and someone who (with the accompanying ditzy music) seems a little out of his league. "Playing not to lose" is drastically different than "playing to win."

And he has at least 3 votes not going for him (maybe 4 or 5, depending on Ozzy/Dawn placement & level-headedness). That's a steep hill to climb, to get four votes from Upolu members who will have two other choices (from their original tribe/alliance) to vote for. Will he be the "big wiener?" I really hope not... (is that clouding my judgment?)

ALBERT: He was shown grooming jury votes. He was the instigator to find the idol (loose thread - when does Brandon learn of that betrayal?)... He keeps making moves (Mikayla, Edna) but failing (...creating "doubt?"). He's "twice" the coach that Coach is. He's probably the "nicest" player left (maybe other than Ozzy). And wasn't he shown in a key "shot" earlier, standing with Sophie & Coach? (final-3, like last season -- if anyone has that screenshot can you re-post it?) He's looking to the end (like Coach). He's talking to everyone (like Cochran). He's a challenge threat (like Ozzy) - maybe not individually, but I'm thinking back to Mikayla's episode when she and Coach couldn't do anything with the slingshots and Albert almost won it for them himself. Intelligence, charisma, and strength... easily enough to outwit, outplay, and outlast. Maybe he hasn't "grown" - yet. Will his constant defeats turn around to constant wins? Will he "redeem" himself? I'll say yes, he is our winner.
