Jalapao

Carolina - played the game hard way too early. We didn't see so much of that but got that secondary reason of her being too bossy and unbearable to live with. Was she perhaps unbearable because she was strategizing way too much? In a season of good, likeable people, it seems the schemers are going to be the first ones to go.

Joe - while he had no confessional time, we did hear from him time to time. The scene that stood out most to us is how he compared Carolina and Sandy a practically the same. He was methodic in his thinking and didn't seem as hotheaded as others. I think we'll be seeing Joe for a lot longer if he keeps this level headed gameplay in tact.

JT - we're not quite getting that farmer, southern charm type of vibe from him. We have already established that he is a hard worker, but aside from that, the only other scene we saw of him was him getting very heated when he heard Carolina wanting to work on a particular aspect around camp that did not align with his own plans. He probably won' t do well in the social aspect of this game, and he seems too different than anyone else in the tribe (and even on the other side as well).

Sandy - she is clearly playing the crazy lady card and it seems to be working for her. I don't think she'll continue to integrate well with the tribe with some of her actions. I think they will either use her as a vote but there's no way they will let an easy vote ride all the way to the end. She'll be there purely for our entertainment but not for our Sole Survivor.

Spencer - he's coming across as the kid with a brain. He doesn't want to simply go along with the group just because that's what they want to do. He seems like he's going to be a lot more mature for his age and that will fit well with any group he goes into. He seems pretty athletic but not to the point where they will see him as a physical threat anytime soon. He'll play a good social game and save all the drama for the confessionals.

Stephen - we see him as the nerdy type, but the guy obviously has a brain in playing the game. He doesn't stand out as weak, but out of the men is probably the one they would see getting rid of first if it was based solely on physicality.

Sydney - sweet and kind, we saw that side of her when she was talking about how she didn't want to vote Sandy off, but had no one else to choose from. We think she is in some alliance with at least Spencer, who we have seen her talk to on several occasions. If she can outperform Sandy, she should be around for awhile longer.

Taj - she tells it like it is, but when appropriate and at the same time, doesn't get hated for it. We saw that from her this week when she told Carolina to check herself. We can't really see how Taj will last much in the physical aspect of the game (they showed her asking to slow down during the trek) but it seems like she can warm up to a few key people and that will be a good thing for her.

Timbira

Coach - wow, he sure does remind us of Ace from Survivor Gabon. He seems poised to have a fall just because we haven't seen characters like him win the game since Richard Hatch. Still, he should be interesting in telling the story of Tocantins and he could very well achieve what he wants, getting a strong person to win and breaking the cycle of survival of the weakest.

Brendan - we don't know much about him other than Coach had a reason to try and forge an alliance with him. Hopefully we'll get more information in Episode 2.

Candace - we know nothing about her, that's not a good thing at all.

Debra - we know nothing about her, that's not a good thing at all.

Erinn - she's more lively than we expected and seems like in a good position within her tribe on all aspects. We expect to see Erinn in for the long haul for that reason.

Jerry - we are getting a semi hero, good dad edit from Jerry. We also know that he is fit but at the same time, he is playing a good game by not revealing what he does for a living. He seems like the good guy  you want to keep around just because voting him out would make you feel guilty.

Sierra - she's out there to play the game, and those people tend to get much further in the game than others. Working on the tribe's camp allowed her to get in the tribe's good graces and doing pretty well at the immunity challenge also raised her stock. Should her health get better, we see her being able to wiggle her way into a voting block that will keep her safe in the early stages of the game. Hopefully, she can keep some of her snippy comments to herself (for example, the way she said she built the shelter for 8 people when they arrived to camp did not sound welcoming at all). We'll be surprised if she gets voted out before Sandy.

Tyson - he seems the strongest male on the Timbira tribe. Not only that, but of all the scenes they have given us, they show the one where he gets nude in front of the tribe and is pretty much acting goofy. I think sometimes when you are out there, being a provider is not the most important thing. Sometimes being the person that lifts everyones spirits is just as important and we can see Tyson doing that.
