I think Jon is a certainty for the final 2. Any one of the three would want to go to the end against him.

Imagine him in his final speech...

He can either pull a Richard Hatch and say he played the game the best and used everything he could... and then probably should fess up about the grandmother lie and start to cry and say she may never forgive him for doing it but he thought he had to do everything he could to win and now he is upset about it and wants her forgiveness. (In other words... play the honesty and sympathy card and show that he is "worthy" to win the money and that he is not really an ass.)

OR...

When asked why he should win the game... He can continue the dead grandmother lie and say that her dying wish was for him to win Survivor and he would be doing it for her. He might also add that if he won it all he would give it all to charity in her name and memory-- but if he only won 2nd place he would use the money to pay for her funeral.


Do you think he has a pair big enough to play it the second way? Would it work? Do you think the producers would allow it? Do you think it would be binding since part of the rules to the game say you can lie. And most importantly.... do you think it would be right for him to play it that way and should the producers change the rules next year to prevent someone from pushing it even further... by claiming he is terminal or that his father was terminal. Where should the producers draw the line?

Or Tobor, he might say he sacrificed so much to be in this game, missing his dear grandmother's funeral and not being with her at her final moments. It is something he will regret his whole life and the million dollars would be a small consolation but he would use the money to help her favorite charity.

Now that would take some cojones.

I remember JP saying his lie didnt affect the game. If he uses it in his final speach how could JP say that?

Even though I picked Jon for final 2 I have a feeling he is not.
