There was talk about the non-merge surprise. For some reason, Jeff has started spending a lot more time asking Erin questions. And one thing she does with every answer is basically repeat the entire question and then maybe add a little bit afterwards. Pay attention in the remaining episodes.

“Erin, do you reckon that there has been some information shared in the last 2 1/2 days that people might be regretting a little bit?”

“I feel like there may have been a little bit of information shared in the past couple days…”

Jeff asked Penny, “How do you figure out how you’re going to vote because certainly there’s some strategy in this?”

After her answer, it didn’t look so good for Shii Ann. I was thinking, “Ok Shii Ann, you were a debate champion in high school. Please do your magic now!”

Jeff continued, “Well guys, this is always an open forum. You haven’t had a chance to talk until now. But clearly there’s stuff going on. I can sense it. I can see Shii Ann…”

She interjects, “I’d love to speak. This is not a tribe unified. It’s never been a tribe unified. As much as everyone here would like to think this is a tribe unified, this is not been the case. And I’ve been the brunt – I’ve been the person who felt that the most the entire time.

So is it surprising for me to go to Chuay Gahn and find five people who have been really lovely, who I can talk to for the first time? And realize that the people who have mistreated me at Sook Jai are also the people who Chuay Gahn distrusts the most.

“You don’t think they asked me about you, Ken? You are the first person they asked about and I watched your back.

Jake, same thing – you know that I’ve always been loyal to you. Penny, you’re manipulative. I know that’s not a pleasant word, but it’s the way that you’ve played the game.

“If you go back today and I’m out and not Penny, that’s going to leave another impression with those guys.”
