User blog comment:Tutudragon16/A Tutu Theory: "NoahNapped"/@comment-1734566-20100729192524

True that, Arti. True that. Maybe the writers are actually being fair to all fans, and finding clever ways to give us all each of every character. Now, in retrospect, it makes perfect sense: Eliminate the fan favorite underdogs Noah and Zeke early on, then bring back Duncan to permanently resolve the triangle. Whatever happens there is a different story. Like someone else said, they (as in Gwen, who people say will be out by this episode, Duncan, and possibly Courtney if the double elimination theory is true) could most likely be out in that episode, so that all three of them are done and over with, and they can focus again on the underdogs and fan favorites like Owen, Heather, and Alejandro.

If they did that, I'd gain a lot more respect for them. For some reason, that pic (combined with all of these massive theories and equally massive support for them) gives me a good vibe, and tells me that they truly will develop Ezekiel's character beyond the whole "I'm in it to win it" thing, and will NOT just eliminate him in the same episode he comes back, like people are predicting. Until then, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
