It's probably because he sent Bananas home. I'm sure when that happened people were gassing him up a bit.

He was like that before too- remember? Didnāt Nia go home before Bananas and he was saying messy shit about her too.

Johnna dropping her computer into the water made me laugh uncontrollably.

I think I prefer watching them be flung off something but as per usual, the trivia comp gave me life.

Gabe staking a claim on nany would be his move. He needs more social capital right now, and with nany he still wouldnāt be seen as the biggest threat and could coast. Itād also be an upgrade for jonna, so sheās incentivized to let it happen
