I agree with you that Jeff's words and Sophie's confessional killed Albert's story. I also agree with you that if things are shaken up, they favor Coach. However, I'd add that they favor Sophie as well because another theme of this season is, "Big moves aren't always such a great idea." And Sophie was the one that was shown as involved in killing Albert's "big move", not Coach.

Also, we saw how badly Ozzy's big move of going to Redemption Island, returning to the merge and having Cochran pretend to be a double agent failed miserably (the returning to the merge part worked out, having Cochran pretend to be a double agent backfired because Cochran became a double agent for real!) And now Cochran's flipping will be seen as a big move that isn't going to work out for him. Since Coach and Sophie haven't been the ones making big moves or planning to make big moves, they should be all right.

As for Coach, I agree that the recap is his story and that the reference to the father eating his children implies that Coach will eat his "children", but that could be a bad thing as well. After all, his "children" won't really be eaten, they will be on the jury and they might be mad at him for betraying them. That might also be a reason for Coach's not winning, with the theme of the person making "big moves" or thinking of making big moves failing is the reason for Albert not winning.

Which leaves us with only one person: Sophie. And therefore I propose that the final Tribal Council editing will come down to choosing between either Coach or Sophie. And as for the idea that just because she took down Ozzy that doesn't mean she should automatically be considered a deserving winner, you're right in using Danielle's example, but Danielle didn't get the credit for taking down Terry because Danielle lost to Aras.

I guess I'm just being a "devil's advocate" here and pointing out that Sophie still has a shot at winning even if she fades into the background behind all the larger-than-life people.
