In terms of the merge compared to other seasons, I didn't really find it as exciting (possibly because I don't feel that I have a lot of emotion vested in many of the players), however it was pretty cool to see the tide turn as quickly as it did.
I'm quite glad that both hidden immunity idols are now gone, and I'm strongly hoping that there will not be another one rehidden.
It's anybody's game now - Foa Foa are still at a distinct disadvantage but I can quite realistically see them recruiting people from Galu and creating quite a powerful force. I can't imagine the Galu members would align with all four of them but possibly three once another Foa Foa is kicked off. I'm glad Laura won immunity because I quite like her and also like the drama between her and Shambo.
As for who will do well out of all of this, I think Natalie is going very well as she is the least target out of the Foa Foa members. Out of Galu, at this stage I'd think Kelly is in quite a good position. The rest...who knows?!
