I watched the first 3 episodes today, and I was just soooo gutted to see Nadiya go
I do think the tribe targetted her just because she was seen as a threat.
However, the way she felt about Josh (all that "girlfriend" "gay guy" stuff) shouldn't have been said to everyone, especially Josh himself
So Nadiya really didn't play this well. I think that Josh didn't feel comfortable with her, neither would I in his shoes. But yeah, this is a completely different game than TAR, so Nadiya made her mistakes - at least I hope that Natalie goes far now, as she doesn't have a target and seems to be in a much better position over on her tribe than Nadiya was.
AND O.M.G., A QUIT?
And then we were shown a helicopter, is that the quitter being taken away, or is there a med-evac later on as well? That's just my speculation, but I think it would be horrible to the producers to have planned the game for 20 people, then have a pair med-evac'ed just before the game and then even having a quit + another possible evacuation
I really hope this season goes well, but the first 2 boots have really disappointed me.
P.S. someone asked who we think is going to quit... My speculation is that it will either be Dale/Keith if it's because of a medical condition (similar to Dana in Philippines season) or Baylor/Jaclyn. I don't see anyone else quitting and would be really surprised, unless we have an unpredictable Lindsey moment again..
P.P.S. by the way, they've never shown us so early that somebody was going to quit later on. Could this be artificial? Like, Jeff could ask "so you're going to quit the game?" (or whatever he said in the preview) and then that person might just go "no, I'm struggling, but I will keep on going and won't quit". At least I hope so
