Inviso 05/12/20 4:56:53 PM #127:	Surskit posted... I will be incredibly shocked if they gave Tony this edit and he doesn't win, especially given how weak the other edits have been. Michele had a very strong pre-merge but her premiere was still pretty bad and she's been constantly shuffled from episodes in which she was an important voice and vote, which hurt the narrative a lot this merge. Natalie was in EoE and there's no way this cast gives the returnee the winning title no matter how amazing they are. Sarah has been on-and-off, but it's the first episode that I think completely eliminates her. Anyone else should not be considered whatsoever. Okay, I have seen this argument far too much this past week (and even earlier). If the cast was going to write off the returnee right off the bat because this is a winners' season, then why did any of them bother to stay on EoE in the first place? They ALL stayed on EoE in the hopes that THEY would be the one to come back with a shot at two million dollars. Actively denying the EoE returnee (in the case that s/he makes the finals) specifically for being an EoE returnee would essentially invalidate their months' worth of effort trying to win their way back in. You can make the argument that perhaps they're less impressed by someone who didn't do a whole lot other than win challenges, but if the EoE returnee earns their respect, I see no reason to think they would be anymore likely to disregard them than the jury was in the original Edge of Extinction. --- Touch fuzzy.
