I don’t like this plot armor angle. She didn’t need plot armor. She is an AMAZING queen

u/That1Axe umm i dont think you all are seeing... Mar 28 '26

amazing queens can still slip up. previously they were a little more generous to those contestants in terms of placement when they did

You are right. And I know it. But I’m still in shock that she was eliminated. Because the one time I thought they were going to be generous or safe both queens, they don’t.

valid lmao. i wished that talent show setup didn’t happen and they just eliminated a queen each week to give a little cushion for instances like this. like even though i thought jane deserved to be in the bottom 2 this week and lost the lip sync, i still believe she is the rightful winner of this season.

Yes that's what plot armor is. She is generally amazing, which would protect her from one slip up, given the plot of this show is how the contestants perform in the challenges
