I’d guess there will have to be a final 3 - that’s how they did the previous BvW. Otherwise you wind up with the possibility of a couple in the final 2, with absolutely zero drama. Who cares who wins at that point?

No, voting Jeremy out was the worst thing Jon could have done. Jeremy was Jon’s human shield. With Jeremy gone, Jon is now the clear #1 target in terms of “I don’t want to compete with this guy in final 4.”

Excellent point. It has to be final 3.

Jon and Jaclyn are being very smug and being very open about it.  
At what point in the game does that turn against you?

Mother and daughter now know that Jon has an idol and the tribe is dwindling, isnt it time to focus on Jon and/or Jaclyn to oust the idol?

Are enough players aware of Jon and Jaclyn’s flipping to know that they are not to be trusted? I’m not sure why anyone would ally with them at this point.
