Has anyone heard anything concrete from the Ole Miss watch party event last night? Do we know any details like we did last week?

I’ve seen rumours of Sol going home but couldn’t tell if it was for real or if we were just to trying to confirm Rome’s boot order.

If not Sol, then who?

If the Rome Theory is true, then I believe Sam and Rachel tie with Sue breaking the tie.

It’s so interesting to me that Rome tries his hardest to not talk about Sam and Rachel to the point of grouping then together. This makes me think they are BOTH significant in the end. Despite the added episode, we still don’t know if it’s gonna be a F2 or F3. However, it has been AGES since a F2 and a F2 doesn’t make a lot of sense in the new format if you keep fire making.

I think they are intentionally showing Sam and Rachel playing very different, yet effective games. Sam as the gamer and Rachel as the person who is more in tune socially. I think it’s very possible that this jury splits on who to give the winning vote too, especially if Sam does make FTC given his state in the game rn.

If there is a tie, please like give me a dollar or something. Not really but like MMW.

So the Ole Miss event is tonight for the pre screening of episode 9, do we think we will get some information like last week? I’m not sure since it’s so close to the actual episode airing but I am curious 👀

Anyone have any predictions they’d like to throw out? (I hope the Rome theory isn’t true please god let Sol stay)

Im struggling to see the logistics of how this would work, help me out here.

The theory is as follows:

During his exit press when Rome did word association, he first listed 11-18th place in exact order (minus himself), and then for the rest of the contestants he went: Rachel - Sam - Sue - Teeny - Genevieve - Andy - Kyle - Gabe - Caroline - Sol. People think that this is the rest of the boot order, with Rachel winning and Sol getting voted out next episode.

However... this doesn't really make much sense? If Sue is the 0 vote finalist it just doesn't line up with Sol going next and then Caroline/Gabe both going after that. From Caroline/Gabe's perspective, what would have to change in the next 2 episodes for them to suddenly not be chill with Sue? Especially if Sue's idol is used next episode to save one of them.

Additionally, it would require a (Rachel/Sam/Sue/Teeny/Genevieve) grouping to agree to vote Andy out. Isn't this... a little weird? I just find it odd that Rachel/Teeny/Genevieve/Sam might all agree to vote Andy instead of clocking each other as bigger threats.

I also struggle to see how Sam would even make it far enough to be a F2 that gets votes. Does he get "robbed" at the end or something? It's just so weird since it feels like his edit isn't lining up to be a F2 loser by any means.

Also... they vote out Caroline/Gabe before Kyle? Despite Kyle being a name they're consistently tossing? Just doesn't make sense to me. Unless Gabe decides to get bigmovetis and leads a Caroline blindside I'm so lost.

Yeah idk it makes so much sense with Teeny in firemaking and Rachel winning but also in some other ways something about it feels off. Narratively I'm struggling to piece together the way a Rachel/Sam/Sue F3 can even happen that doesn't feel weird.

Wasn't there a leak about sol's massive weight loss? I know every sol truther is scrambling because of the rome theory, yeah he is the type of guy who would pull off something like this(I also think there's a possibility that this may be true) but I'm still inclined to believe sol will at least make final 6 or 7 based on those early leaks about his weight.

Now If Sol does go next I think its safe to assume that MOST of the rome theory would be correct(he might be bamboozling us with some parts of it) but for now based on the edit I'm feeling.

10. Kyle
11. Rachel
12. Andy
13. Sam
14. Sol
15. Genevieve
16. Sue - fire making loser to Teeny
17. Gabe - Russell Hantz foreshadowing/edit (0 vote finalist)
18. Teeny - losing finalist
19. Caroline - I only chose her cause I think she's most likely to win from the spoiled choices

Two new sneak peeks out on this website. One shows Sol (and by extension the rest of the Lavos) wanting to work with Sam and target Gabe, another shows Andy and Rachel trying to reconnect.

So the above shot which is the finals of the IC is one of two things:

1. Finals is only 2 people Teeny vs Sol and obv Sol does not win since Sue is targeting him in NTOS
2. Finals is 4 people (2 teams of 2) and Sol/Tenny is one of the teams in the finals.

I heard production doesn’t like S47. If that’s true, then I think it’s a good sign for Caroline over Rachel. After watching EP8, I don’t think production would mind a winning story for Rachel, considering she has an underdog story, was saved by a twist/advantage, found an idol, and played smartly with a Shot in the Dark. On the other hand, a win for Caroline would most likely mean Tuku3 dominance with no Carolne's advantages or Caroline's flashy gameplay involved, and she would likely win jury votes because she is more likable than Sue or Gabe, which the production would most likely hate as a story.

Out of everyone that got a confessional or a mat chat before the marooning challenge of the premiere, the only ones left are Sam, Kyle, Sue, Gabe, Teeny, and Andy; and With LTR’s information, the only person left that sorta fits the bill as the winner, is Sue.

It could explain why production isn’t too high on this season and I know that Sue hasn’t been getting that strong of an edit so far since merge started, but maybe that’s the point? To throw us off her trail as a winner.

And if/when she does, the whole fanbase is probably gonna erupt and be totally divided like when Gabler won, and undoubtedly Sue’s gonna get some hate with the usual “she didn’t deserve it” type of messages and how it “ruined” the season for them.

I know that quite a few people think it’s between Caroline and Rachel, but personally I’m not counting out Sue yet, I did that with Gabler in 43, saying that there was no possible way he was winning and that it was definitely Cassidy, and we all saw how that ended.

And yeah, there are some glaring red flags in her edit right now, but Rachel and Caroline have a few of their own as well. Regardless of which one of these three wins, it won’t be a “perfect” edit by new era standards.

In Sierra's exit interview she says Kyle explained to her why they chose to boot her over Sam. Does that mean Kyle is the next one?

Anyone think it’s a mix of Kyle/Teeny/Andy?

Remember Kyle’s wife followed Sierra, Teeny, and Andy before the season started. Any chance he just bonded with those 3 as the first 4 members of the jury?

Or does it mean absolutely nothing?

Might make this again in a few weeks. Not including Sue because it’s nearly universally agreed she isn’t winning

View Poll

In the pre-merge, Caroline mostly appeared to be Sue's sidekick, but the editing position totally flipped post-merge. It reminds me of the Kim-Sabrina edit in One World, where their roles shifted from pre-merge to post-merge.

So when Rome was doing his exit press (specifically the word association), he did them in his own order, as opposed to the interviewer giving him a name. For the first batch he did it in this order: Sierra, Tiyana, Anika, Kishan, Aysha, TK, Jon. This is obviously 11th-18th minus Rome of course. The rest of the order was as followed:

1. Rachel

2. Sam

3. Sue

4. Teeny

5. Genevieve

6. Andy

7. Kyle

8. Gabe

9. Caroline

10. Sol

Is there an actual chance this is the rest of the boot order (Rachel 1st through Sol 10th)? Might be a huge reach, but if Sol goes out next episode I'll unironically consider it haha.

We have too many people now looking at Rachel as a threat especially from Caroline and Genevieve and with Sierra gone and Sam knows Andy flipped, the tribal next week must be split again on who to boot as Sam is on a warpath but he might escape that one if he wins immunity. Sam is playing crazy and Andy is a flipper who can't be trusted

Rachel needs allies though and Sol and Teeny and Sam seem to be her best bet and we see them doing a mad dash on who to boot next since Sue, Sol, Kyle and Gabe's name popped up. Caroline and Genevieve are out of the question and Teeny is pro-woman alliance but she isn't going to get it from the other girls so she's stuck with this.

Next week could be Kyle's swan song if he doesn't win immunity however and since Sue wants Sol out, he probably gets to her first which leads to Rachel's winning chances higher and Caroline out of the loop but still not out of the running to win too. i can see Gen voting for Rachel to win if she outsmarted her first,.

She also seems to be the nicest one out there who is the only loyal one out there left to their alliance...not many nice people winners as of late.

interesting too she dressed up as Jeff Probst on instagram and her husband as her for halloween.

This is the post-episode speculation thread for the eighth episode of Survivor 47. Use this to discuss the episode and make your predictions for the season ahead.

Who's your winner pick now, spoilerinos?

This is the episode discussion thread for the eighth episode of Survivor 47.

One castaway bites into a little more than food, which leads to a game-changing opportunity; another wild tribal council results in the first member of the jury.

Is Sierra's reluctance to separate herself from Sam about to send her out the game? Make your predictions below!!

It’s Sierra. They want to vote her or Sam but they see Sierra as the more strategic player. It goes to a tie then Sierra is sent home in the revote!

Here’s what we know so far!

• Survivor Auction returns! Potentially same style as 46 where survivors run around and have to find their money on the island (clips of Sierra and Sol searching hinted in promos)
• Wrist Assured immunity challenge gives 2 survivors immunity (potentially one female winner and one male winner - we know Sam, Genevieve, and Teeny drop and lose the challenge)
• Episode title is He’s All That - is this a breakout episode for Andy?
• Sam says “War is absolutely coming” in a promo - does he feel like he’s in trouble?
• Sierra says “Let’s go after the Tukus” - is she confident in saying this because she’s safe from the challenge? 👀
• Genevieve says there are “too many cooks in the kitchen” and it would be hard for “all 8 of us to agree” - who are the 8 you speculate? (Safe to say Sol/Genevieve/Teeny/Andy based on press release photos)
• Sol has plans to expand his alliances and create “Sol’s Secret Agents” and he is seen trying to build a relationship with Rachel in the sneak peek - does he find time to secretly tell Rachel he was her guardian angel?
• Press release photos and promo edits show Kyle talking to Sam privately and also Teeny privately. Is he trying to form more social bonds because he loses the challenge and fears he is potentially going home? Or is he in a comfortable spot because he wins another challenge and he is forming bonds for his own long game?
• Sue still has an idol - does she finally tell someone else besides Caroline about it?
• Sam has his no good idol (does he try and use it as a fake for some fun?)
• Who gets the bugs from the reward challenge lol
