Wait, so its not a two-part finale anymore like they said at the end ofthe last episode?

Finales, by their definition, are only one part?

Is that what happened?

We were guessing the whole time and reveling in all of it.

Ugh, am I going to have to admit that (gulp) I actually like the new era?

Even the start of the episode is great.

We have no idea.

It was kind of an accident.

The one problem with Rachels recon mission is she is under the impression that Genevieves idol is still real.

As soon as he does, Genevieve screams, Ew!!

Its a bat!!

Its a bat!!

Get it off of me!!

Then Andy makes his biggest mistake in the game and starts playing differently.

He is, however, Oz.

Should it be Sam or Andy?

But if Andys gone, I would worry that Sam and Genevieve would get tighter.

(We all agree those have always been edibles, right?)

The tribal was perfect.

She lays it right out: Andy flipped.

Everyone gives their smug little answers and I havent been so excited for an idol reveal in ages.

Eventually, she and Sue chose to get rid of Andy, which was definitely the right move.

He couldnt be trusted and had flipped more times than a Cirque du Soleil troupe on a Ferris wheel.

Just like in the earlier challenge, why do they even bother with the preamble?

Why have them dig under a post and then balance their balls?

Its all going to come down to the ball balancing.

Give these starving waifs a rest!

She tells Rachel and Sue, who dont seem to believe that its fake.

Teeny needs more clarification and goes to Genevieve and just asks her if its fake.

Genevieve, like Andy before, plays differently than shes played all season.

She tells Teeny the truth.

Teenys brain is more scrambled than Dr. Frank N. Furters after he does The Time Warp.

Teeny tells everyone at tribal about the fake idol, but she still doesnt know what to do.

She tells Rachel that they should all vote for Genevieve, and Rachel says, Are you sure?

If its real, youre going to get the ricochet.

She should have said, If its real and I was fooled, Im okay going home like that.

Instead, Teeny goes into the voting booth and takes her sweet old time casting her vote.

Teeny rolls her eyes for the billionth time this season, probably at herself.

Good on you, Sue.

At the end of the episode, if you watch how everyone voted, Teeny voted for Sam!

She was the only one given the information, and shes the only one who didnt believe it.

Has Teeny been right about one thing in this game?

This will be a great finale and I am officially rooting for Rachel to win.

I think next, Im rooting for Sue.

It wasnt a splashy game, but, like she said, shes been underestimated this whole time.

They were her shields, and she has outlasted all but one (so far).

Im sorry, but Teeny has no shot.

Oh, our Teeny.

I like her, I really do.

Can she make it to the end?

Heck, I might even miss Jeff saying community like he gets paid by the mention.
