Great move last night by Yul in flipping Jonathan. Being forced to play the idol last night would have been bad news for Yul as he would have had a major target on his back and would not have lasted much longer without beating Ozzy in the IICs.

Jonathan was (and still is) the #5 man in a 5 man alliance. But if he hadn't told Yul he'd flip, then he would have gone home last night because of the hidden immunity idol.

However, what he should have done was to make Yul think he was flipping, causing the Yul alliance to vote for Nate, then voted with the Nate/Adam alliance against Yul.

This would have forced Yul to play the hidden immunity idol, sending Nate home and taking the hidden immunity idol out of play.

As it stands now, he has flipped on every person in the jury (which could make him an attractive person to bring to the final two, maybe) and he's still the #5 man in a 5 man alliance who nobody will trust.

Finally a little drama at TC (sorry Cuz, I cannot read the predictions any more because they're too good these days. Gotta wait until it's over to read. ;-)

Anybody know why Nate wasn't on the The Early Show? I did miss the first 15 m or so, so maybe I just missed it.

Yeah, I think that Yul did a great job playing it. As for the suggestion that Jonathan stayed with his alliance, while convincing the other side that he was flipping (and for them to vote for Nate), I just don't see Candice and Adam taking it well that Nate goes because Jonathan saved his own rump. He tried to get the vote off of Yul, couldn't and I think he ran out of room to move.

By the time they reach camp, everyone will know that Yul has the immunity idol.

I fully expected Jonathan to do just that. A bit disappointed he didn't. I'd be curious to hear his reason for not doing so.
