I'll take the hit, that was very well done on Emily's part. Kaleb is a strong social player, and he thinks that he's all over Emily, but she's got some hooks in him, too. Though, Sabiya wanted to vote out the only reason that tribe won anything. Kaleb carried that reward challenge on his back and then some.
Some interesting dynamics on the red tribe, around the idol.
I like the Goodwill Advantage, and I'm not too surprised to see it, given how long some folks were without a vote in the last few seasons due to Beware's.
I also like the new tier vote cancelling Immunity Idol, as well as the effort involved to get them. It would be really complex for one person to do all these tasks.
I have to just shake my head at yellow. I get that they don't have a flint...but they've had multiple fires given to them! They either absolutely suck at keeping the fire they each get from tribal going, or they aren't thinking of using it. Useless.
Figured that a swap or merge would be coming next ep with yellow going down to 3. I do kind of hope that it's a merge into 2 tribes, though I suppose 3 tribes of 5 wouldn't be too bad, either.
I am finding the 90 minute format works better for this show, quite a bit more than it does for Amazing Race. We see a lot of strategizing and stuff with it here, and I like it.
