Majority Rules is going to say a lot, and with Tom on vacation... he's wide open to be blindsided right off the bat.
Tom seems to think he's still in charge, and his ally Chad does too. Tom is the correct answer to #2 - he mistakenly thinks he's running shit. Parvati seems to know what's up: Ashley's really the one in charge around here. Parvati is the only one who can stop Tom's blindside. I don't think she'll find it worth her while, though, given who Tom is.
I would project that Ashley will try to get rid of Tom since he's leaving on vacation and won't be able to vote by means other than a bootlist, which drastically reduces the chances of him playing his 3x vote. Barbie and Ashley each have a 2x vote, Barbie's only being this round, so if I had to guess how votes were to fall:
Adam - Tom
Ashley - Tom x2
Barbie - Tom x2
Chad - Adam
Misty - Tom
Natalie - Tom
Parvati - Tom
Tom - Adam
If Tom used his 3x vote and changed Natalie's vote to Adam, he'd still have 7 votes against him as opposed to 5 for Adam; if he was able to convince Parvati to vote for Adam, it'd be a tie. This Parvati, however, seems smarter than she comes across. I don't think she would want to single herself out, but I don't think she's realized that Ashley hates her and that she's doomed regardless.
If Tom does indeed go this round, I'm guessing they'll target Chad next and tell him that it's Parvati; that way, he leaves with the HII in his possession or plays it on the wrong person and looks like a fool. Chad really doesn't stick out to me in any way, so I don't know how he'd handle it.
Ashley isn't one to relent control - once she's in power, she knows how to keep it, and she can challenge whore her way to the end if need be. I loved this girl as Candice and she topped my list for All-Stars in Malaysia long before she won. She's doing the same here, and right now I'm honestly getting the "Winner" vibe from her. Partially because she knows when she needs to win challenges. I kind of taught her a lesson in SBB1...
POWER RANKINGS:
1. Ashley
2. Natalie
3. Barbie
4. Adam
5. Chad
6. Parvati
7. Misty
8. Tom
Sure, Tom has a triple vote and vote changer, but 1) he won't know how to properly use them and 2) he's on vacation. Klein is a genius - he'll stick his tongue into an electrical socket and fry himself because he thinks he's too smart to be shocked. I see Ashley ridding herself of him pronto and since Adam and Misty have nowhere else to turn, they'll follow her lead.
Natalie could win here, but honestly, she seems like she's Ashley's right hand and is the less aggressive of the two, though she's a lot better socially. That may be what wins it for her in the end, if Ashley and Natalie are the final two like we all expect right now. Although if the three "Mean Girls" - although I really only see Ashley as "mean" right now - are in the final three, Barbie might end up getting second because she's easier to beat. Barbie's done nothing but follow and look like a moron. She's in a good position, but she's not winning.
I can't wait to laugh at what happens to Klein - this is why I enjoy watching him so much. He's hilarious.
