I think this likely ends up being T&H boot -> Bees boot -> whichever of Rey/Avocado doesn't have immunity boot. Although I'd be glad to see a switchup!

At this point, I think Grogu can beat anyone in the FTC.

I think so too, but I also think his threat level is generally recognized and he has a high chance of going home at F4, or even earlier.

I doubt that Bees actually SWPs avocado, giving an answer to grogu is different from following the advice and it's good to know in case grogu wins immunity. 100% expect Bees to SWP grogu and get out cleric or rey, but then again bees 100% trusts grogu when they shouldn't (though grogu has been most fond of bees so it makes some sense).

Also it is interesting, Grogu probably has the best odds of a returnee of winning a game (though mipha came within a vote) and they also are the least returnee returnee due to the twist in the round they went out.

Ofc this is all on paper, I think there's a chance a lot of the players remaining won't know HOW to sell their game at FTC in a way that earns votes.

T&H open disdain of Avocado to his face is honestly so crushing. I would be down too if I was Avocado and my closest ally was talking to me like that.

Maybe it'll open him up to working with the redemption players? Avo/Cleric/Rey seems possible and something Avo could win.

Is Avocado even a goat? He didn't play his idol for Maggie, but I don't think the jury should hold that against him too much since he didnt know for sure that the votes were on Maggie.

In jury, even Bard seems down on him and that was his best friend. I think he's tumbled down to the bottom of the list in terms of respect from other players but do agree that come FTC, with a jury possibly looking to avoid voting for a returnee, he could potentially overcome Cleric and Rey, although I think Rey is the favorite there. Since there have been several returnees here and they're a major part of the game this time around I could also see the returnees having a better chance than usual, even outside of puppet master Grogu.

I think Avocado has played well, but I do see him struggling with a Jury. Juries really punish any kind of downward trajectory, even if you were starting from an unusually high place. His late merge play has been poor, but overall he has a lot of raw ability. I do doubt his FTC ability as well, and he probably would be coming in with a deficit.
His saving grace might be that to me at least, Rey has a similar trajectory. Maybe hers is more of a rise and fall, but she's been on the decline the past few rounds as well. She's fallen off in terms of activity and some of her choices have been strange. Maybe I just think that bc she isn't confessing. But I also doubt her FTC ability, and I could see Avocado's passion and desperation to win being compelling in contrast.
In a way though, I hope Avocado does not win, because I could see him taking the wrong lessons from this game if it got him a win. His play in this endgame has been bad, and he should make it here again and give it a second go.
