Okay, kiddos...I'm a bit of a dreamer, so bare with me...but I'm singing the rubber tree song. With that said:
1) The players left: Hag, Ape, BoBlo, Yapette, St. James, Howie, Rachel, Janelle. 8 players.
2) There will be 5 votes this week. BoBlo will not vote.
3) BoBlo nominates 2 of the S3. We'll take Howie and Rachel as examples.
4) Meanwhile, St. James is working Yapette on the Hag issue. Work it baby, work it.
5) Yapette thinks to herself ('cause that's how she's gonna think it) "Maybe we need to backdoor Hag". St. James still workin' it.
6) Janelle, playing for Howie or Rachel (the S3 players are interchangeable at this point) wins POV, and takes one of them off. Now BOTH are safe.
7) For BoBlo, it comes down to putting up St. James, or putting up Hag. St. James still working it.

Yapette works her magic, persuading the spineless BoBlo to put Hag on the block "as a pawn".
9) The voters: Against Hag: St. James, and the two safe out of the S3. Against the lone S3 on the block: Ape and Yapette (unless she REALLY buys into the "Hag must go" BS and make it 4-1).
Either way, 3-2 or 4-1, the S3 remain intact, and the "Friendship" (I hate using that word on them) loses one.
(singing) Just what makes that little old ant....
