    The target on Steven was bigger than the edit made it out to be.

    It also shows Savannah is a more strategic player than she may seem.
    Unlike Sage, who goes after people based on her emotional reaction,
    Savannah is smart enough to realize Steven would be harder to defeat
    than Sage. I do think Sage is the next to go unless she wins F5
    immunity, in which case it will be Kristina.

    Playing emotionally and at times irrationally has been the downfall of
    the side opposing Savannah's alliance.

    If Sage and Kristina survive F5 it might be a bigger blindside than we
    just had at F6.

    It's hard to imagine a scenario where both Kristina and Sage survive F5.
    That would mean one of Savannah, Rizo or Sophi gets voted out, and
    those are all unlikely.

    In Savannah's case, the most likely way she gets voted out is if she
    loses immunity and Sophi join with Kristina and Sage to vote her out. I
    just don't think that's likely considering Savannah's edit and the
    spoilers about S50.

    In Rizo's case, the only way he gets voted out is if Savannah loses
    immunity and he gives his idol to Savannah, and Sophi and the others
    somehow figure that out and put their votes on him. Not only is that a
    bunch of unlikelies, but I just don't think Rizo would give his idol
    away the last time he can use it.

    For Sophi to get voted out, either Rizo or Savannah would have to join Kristina and Sage in voting her out, and I just don't see any scenario
    where that would make sense.

    I agree with your analysis. Sage is most likely to go next as Kristina's getting a classic no-vote F3 edit.

    Assuming Sophi survives F5, it would be interesting to see what she
    would do if she wins F4 Immunity. Would she reward Savannah's loyalty
    and take her to F3, or would she pit Rizo and Savannah against each
    other in Fire?

    Neither.

    First of all, it's hard to imagine Sophi winning F4 immunity. But if
    she somehow did win, I actually think she would know her only chance to
    win the season would be to put herself into fire the way Chris did back
    in S38. I actually think she would send Savannah and Rizo to the finals
    and put herself into fire against Kristina so that she would have
    something to claim as her big achievement for the final speeches.

    If she was going to risk doing fire it would make the most sense to

    Taking out Kristina would not impress the jury.

    That's a valid point. But again, I can't really see her beating
    Savannah in what is normally a very difficult final four challenge. But
    we will see. I deliberately don't watch spoilers for next episode, so I
    have no idea what the final challenge will be. Maybe she will get lucky
    and have some unique set of skills that allow her to win.
