But here, among friends, I'll go out on a limb and make my predictions in public, without already knowing the answers. This week, we're going to see lots of people fail to catch food, do dumb things, make catty comments to each other, and engage in general backbiting. Oh, and some one will get voted off.
OK, more seriously... The episode is titled Gender Bender. The medics haven't made an appearance since Season 2's Mike-accident, but I still think we can rule out any emergency sex-change operations. We're likely to see a guys vs. gals situation, and that only seems likely among out buddies at Chewing Gum. The Ghandia and Ted situation is almost certainly not over, and we're going to get to see even more of it tonight. Helen seems strongly won over to Ghandia's side, and I would guess that Jan is there too. The porn star sides with Ted, while Clay goes on Ted's side by default, simply by his disgust with the lawyer lady. If they lose immunity tonight, one of the pair is going to go - which will it be? The bitchy lawyer who can throw rocks on the beach? Or the big guy who throws opponents off the challenges? Bye-bye Ghandia.
But I'll hedge my bets a little bit too. Sucky showed an astonishing ability to pull defeat their way last week, and their hunting and fishing abilities give a good reason for that streak to continue. They divided, along non-gender lines, into two competing alliances. On the one hand is the Jake/Shii Ahn "worker bees" (although not hunters), on the other is the Robb/Stephanie "too dumb to come in out of the rain." The workers have 5, the dumb bunnies have 2. I'm betting Robb thinks they have a chance. They don't. Stephanie goes if they lost.
My vote: Ghandia.
