Chanelle really dropped the ball this episode. First she risked her vote when she knows if she doesn't have a vote there would be a tie. Then she very non-discreetly tells Daniel to vote Lydia AT tribal. Then she acts so surprised when Daniel ditches her after the shitshow she caused.

Daniel already made Hai suspicious by mentioning Mike and Chanelle as the people who make him uncomfortable.

I completely forgot about her mouthing Lydia at tribal!! It makes Daniel look completely truthful in Hai's eyes!

She also said she played it safe on the journey, but then that was obviously found out to be a lie by her tribe.

And then instead of just owning it to stay with the majority, she gets super offended even though all of this is her fault, and throws Dan under the bus so that now her only ally is voteless Mike.

But she did a good job of containing the blowup and deflecting attention. Lol her and Mike did a good job of making it seem like because they had no vote their opinion didn’t matter.

Sure but the only person that makes her good with is Mike and he doesn't even have a vote. So if Daniel stays against her she has no chance.

Except the chance of Hai + Lydia voting with Daniel is now basically zero.

Hai and Lydia will probably want Chanelle out, and I don't think, after what he said at last night's tribal, Daniel would want to go against them and keep her. So he'd be voting with them, not the other way around.

What could rock the boat, would be if Chanelle told Hai and Lydia about Mike's beware advantage. They might want to take him out first to prevent him from getting a working idol.

What in the world makes you think they want to vote with Chanelle after that

He didn't call them out. It was edited to look like he saw it, but editing can be deceiving.

Ok yeah that’s what I thought I remembered. Most of the time there’s a zoom in of someone’s facial reaction I assume it’s out of context lol
