LAST EDITED ON 11-01-14 AT 03:50 PM (EST)

Still agree with your general sentiments. After the Kelley episode, I wasn't so sure about Missy being the winner but the clues were definitely there (like her comforting Julie earlier). This past episode was really good for her. She smacked down Jon's ideas so quickly. It really feels more like Jon is going to be the "character" and Missy is going to be the "player" in that alliance.

I feel like the editing is making it really obvious that Josh, Wes, Alec, and Reed will end up getting knocked out at the merge. Wes and Alec have fallen so far into the background that they seem like the boring Pagong boots now. The Morgans and Jeremiahs of the world. I suspected that Baylor would screw over Josh, and it really looks like that's where they're leading toward. Baylor is portrayed as just following around her mother, so I think it's very unlikely that she'll be able to have her friend Josh come over, when it's her mom's night to play bridge with Jeremy and Natalie.

I'm actually getting kind of annoyed at this season at how they spun the rice bartering into "Jeremy is right, they're all whiny" when HIS TRIBE WAS THE ONE WHO ATE ALL THE RICE. And then Missy on the other tribe is still shoving rice down their gullets. It is so obvious that Jeremy's tribe was the "irresponsible" one (although strategically sound, I suppose) but they way they spin it, really gets on my nerves, and makes it obvious that Jeremy's faction is going to win out over Josh's.

I hope I'm wrong. Jeremy is really annoying to me. I mean, Tony was annoying sometimes, but at least he could be annoying in an extremely entertaining way. I think I'm just grumpy this season because I miss my Cagayan people so much.
