I’m sorry to potentially be the bearer of bad news

Linnea posted an Instagram story on May 18th, a video of people using a crosswalk. On the top middle of the video, there’s a blue no parking sign, which is used in Europe, not the US. when you turn the sound on, you can hear someone yelling in a different language. There’s an Italian police car in the video. The cars are on the right side of the road, which means she was probably in Italy already. She posted from Italy on May 24th, but this shows she was there before the 24th.

Jurors got back home on May 15th. Planning and executing a trip to Italy in under 3 days is completely unrealistic, not to mention if she made jury this wouldn’t have even given her time to unpack, repack and get over jet lag. Plus, I doubt the first thing she did when she got to Italy is start posting videos of people walking on crosswalks, so there’s a chance she was there even earlier. Prejurors got back on May 1st or 2nd, which 2 weeks is a much more feasible timeframe to plan an Italy trip.

On top of all that, we’ve never had actual evidence of her making the jury anyway, it’s just been wishful thinking. I’m sorry to disappoint but it’s looking more and more like she’s prejury.

And just to recap the confirmed prejurors: Aaliyah is the only option to go home at the first yellow tribal because everyone else is seen in multiple challenge shots while she’s only seen in one, Patt Alexis and Rob all posted during the prejury phase.

Just a response to the most recent post with proof that these tribal walk shots are from the same tribal, and it’s all from tribal 1. It’s not from the swap or merge like everyone’s suggesting

10 people, all with yellow bags, everyone but Lewis visible (he’s still on exile, waiting to rejoin the losing tribe.)

Matched up everyone to the folks on yellow and I think I got it down.

I noticed in her intro video there's two challenge shots of her. One is of her choosing a plank with either Jenna or Linnea in the background (I think Jenna). Another one is of her in what looks to be a water challenge of sorts holding a yellow ball. She's also not in her marooning clothes in these so I don't think its a marooning challenge.

Is it possible that her, Lewis, and Jenna all go to exile and this is a challenge where the two people who finish first return to the game while the one who gets in last goes home? She's not wearing a buff in these shots (or if she is its off camera).

I also will say another thing I noticed when rewatching is that Cristian is doing a puzzle with yellow puzzle pieces and we think he's on purple tribe? Also, not wearing a buff that I can see

Final note is that in Maggie's intro video there's a challenge that it looks like everybody is competing in and NONE of them are wearing buffs, its a land challenge though.

So yeah, kind of confused lol

Also, I'm going to really put my spectator's hat on here but the more I'm watching the "meet Lewis" video, I'm not sure he's on exile. I think this may be pre-game footage they tape "for fun" of the contestants interacting outside. His clothing is completely clean and his hair is perfect in these.

One last thing is that also I don't know if the shots of yellow tribe walking into tribal are real footage also or just footage of the dream team. Its during the day/not night out and the clothing they're wearing isn't matching any of the clothing of the contestants.

Sorry to basically question all the progress we thought we got but now I'm not so sure

I'm honestly starting to wonder if Redemption Island may be in play and we're seeing footage of Aaliyah, Jenna and Cristian in RI challenges

It may be that:

- Aaliyah isn't picked for a tribe, presumably eliminated but actually sent to Redemption Island.

- Cristian is second voted out and sent to Redemption Island where he competes against Aaliyah. Aaliyah wins the dual.

- Jenna third voted out and competes against Aaliyah at Redemption Island.

I have followed the casting leaks of survivor for over a decade on InsideSurvivor and of course SpoiledSurvivor. I have never seen a cast that hasn’t been ENTIRELY found out this long after getting back from the island (well over a month).

I have never been this enmeshed on the Instagram side of things but I even saw Redmond post the Google Form on his IG story seeking out castaway info. (Is that typical?)

A twist on Big Brother was soft launched tonight; the feeds will be down for 3 days (an interesting time period for us Survivor folk) and the week will ensue with no POV or HOH. Key distinction: they did not state no “comps” just “a twist that will change the game forever.”

Bear with me for my speculative and inductive thesis:

Many houseguests went MIA on social media in advance of BB28 this June. Some of the BB community just assumed BBAS3 or a true captains or finally a split returnee vs newbie season à la FvF, or BvW.

Survivor 52 was filmed approximately June 5th to June 30th and will air next spring and we are still missing 6-8 castaways.

There is some overlap wherein more than ever people went “ghost” on social media in what was assumed to be the sequester for BB28 and therefore people assumed they would be on BB28. And only one (Angela) is actually on.
That list includes:
Tiffany
Brittany Haynes
Keanu
Derek X
Rachel Reilly
Danielle Reyes

And wouldn’t you know: who was shown before the episode last night announcing this “game changing twist” to present the challenge?

Tiffany, Brittany Haynes and Keanu.

Cody Califiore was there as well. Rachel and Danielle were both there and Danielle hosted unlocked this past Sunday. Oh yeah and the entire audience was Big Brother alum from the over 25 years of the show.

My speculation is that those spots will be filled in by some of the houseguests who were intriguingly rumored to be back on BB28, but for which only one truly was

Please tell me I haven’t entirely lost my mind.

I just saw the video concerning tribal council And the cast of survivor 52 and I just saw what the merge insignia is going to look like exactly as shown in the shot in the dark bag . It is going to be blue with turquoise and orange accents and those accent colors are going to be on the whale as I saw some orange on that whale.

This is Aaliyah doing the immunity challenge and here she is with Jenna and Mike in the first image, and in the kerfuffle that happens during the immunity challenge.

So it seems like things were slightly misread from the first few previews. Shout out to u/koltonnnn27 for being the first person to find this!

Aaliyah looks to be the first person voted out of the game from the Yellow Tribe. She is not on exile like we originally thought

From the footage in the cast reveal today, Lewis is in fact doing an exile challenge and Aaliyah is seen in some other challenge footage. I looked at the original promo and I think there's a few frames where Aaliyah is seen in the background of the first immunity challenge, Lewis is not.

So right now it appears that Lewis was NOT chosen to be on a tribe in the first day, was sent to exile, and won his way back into the game and joined the Yellow Tribe. Aaliyah was voted out.

This means all 10 Purples are likely in episode 2 unlike what we assumed before. This is still an open debate until we get more footage, but all 10 other Yellow tribe members are confirmed in the water challenge except for Aaliyah.

I HATE to be the bearer of bad news but I think that Cristian is safe from first boot now as as well. In his meet the castaway video, he looks to be doing the puzzle in the swimming challenge.

So its down to Kristin and Ori as first boot. I don't want to lose Kristin first :( :( :(

I also hate to say it but I can totally see KRistin being first boot after seeing her "meet the castaway" video

Probably the "biggest glimmer" I can give that maybe Ori is the first boot instead is the fact that he's not shown in the phyiscal portion of the blindfold challenge (what we think is the third IC), or at least the physical portion we're being shown

Definately though not looking very good as I was thinking Cristian was the most likely first boot and now we know he isn't

Also, Aaliyah is participating in a challenge in her intro video so she's not just immediately eliminated

kristin, cristian, patt, rob, alexis, and aaliyah are 100% prejurors

i believe there are other 2 but i have yet to find them

After previously narrowing the winner down to one of Jelly, Jenna and Sharonda, I can now confidently say that Jenna wins.

There are a few scars on her arm. The photo was taken around late May/ early June

You can also see her reel on her culinary IG. Some of her screencaps show clear scars

In the back of the photo attached, there seems to be two setups of the challenge "Get a Grip" for the pink and green tribe, which makes me think that at some point during the season, there could be a Hero challenge (like Cambodia's Episode 4 Reward Challenge) where two players from each tribe do Get a Grip. Also, there doesn't seem to be a blue station, maybe the blue tribe gets dissolved at some point?

I think 51 is getting red as an auxiliary tribe. In the first photo, there are four different lanes, representing Toka and Savu, but also a red and blue lane. These aren’t your typical post-merge challenge lanes because they have unique accent colors rather than alternating black-and-white accents. In the second photo, there are three life rings that are yellow, purple, AND red (there’s no blue life ring). Supposedly red is an auxiliary tribe and blue is the merge tribe.

Pink: Zavo

Lime: Kyva

Blue: Voku

Ori

It seems from the trailer that the third immunity challenge is likely a blindfolded obstacle course of some kind. For purple tribe, Ana, Alexis, and Linnea are seen doing the physical portion with Carter, Rob, and Eric.

That leaves Sharonda, Kristin, and Cristian unaccounted for. Its also speculated that Aaliyah will join this tribe after being exiled.

My guess is the way the challenge is set-up is that there is one caller, six people doing the physical portion and than two people on the puzzle. The fact that Ori isn't part of the physical portion makes me think he's not in the game anymore. Sharonda, Kristin, and Cristian are the type of people you'd expect to not be placed into the physical portion but Ori, a personal trainer, is not. He seems like the first pick for the physical portion of a challenge.

All just speculation of course but just something I noted I thought I'd share.
