The latter's treatment spelled end of journey in the VT and producers probably thought they'd be a hard sell but the judges seemed to try their luck with the judges comments and it paid off. Robert Finley though almost messed up producers perfect day by knicking the save off LBK.

We also saw the brutal nature of the producers when it comes to hatchet jobs, and Eric Chien became the latest victim, he was clearly stitched up and was eliminated as a result.

In terms of the wildcard, I feel like Lukas & Falco is a bit of an odd choice. With Benicio now the chosen one when it comes to the songwriting niche, it isn't a surprise Sophie wasn't brought back as that may hurt Benicio's vote. However without a danger act in the semis, Bir Khalsa could've added something unique.

V.Unbeatable and Ryan Niemiller I'd say are definitely safe next week, the former's treatment will be intriguing in the winning race, the final automatic spot will likely be between Voices of Service and Emanne Beasha, but I can see the military vote getting VOS ahead, but either way both will likely get through unless they are in a save against each other. That final spot for me is up for grabs, many acts in contention. If Marcin is there, producers will likely jump at the opportunity to put him in, but for me pretty much everyone bar Lukas & Falco is in contention to go through.

In the winning race I am starting to get the feeling producers are fine with Kodi or V.Unbeatable taking the prize, and are willing to let the cards fall as they do, both would be great winners for the show. I would agree with this, the producers are probably very pleased lol. Also even if Sophie was the wild card, I don't think it would matter for Benicio since Benicio is very much prefered by America, plus he writes better songs and has more authentity then Sophie, who just sings about the same thing. Just my opinion though. Sophie has a lot fans that may have gone over to Benicio with him being the only songwriter left, that could've taken votes off of Benicio
