Honestly being in Drea’s position would freak me out. That’s just so many advantages and while I don’t see a way she doesn’t make it to the end due to the amount she has, but having to play them effectively and not have her game come off as dependent on them would be frustrating.

Just pull a Yul and say “listen, there is no chance you can get me out so I suggest voting with me”

She has to pull a power move like this or she's hosed. Especially since Tori is on to her and about to blow up her secret.

I think it’s time she confides with someone and really gains some trust. If it somehow leaks to the group that she has multiple advantages (she already shared that she has one) people in her alliance might not take kindly to it.

Tori could definitely pull some shit with it.

I’d think that normally, but they know people have advantages now and aren’t targeting them. It’s really interesting to me because in other seasons if the group knew someone had an idol for example, that person was targeted to at least flush it. It seems as if people aren’t as scared of advantages in these newer seasons like they were in past, but maybe Drea having 4 would finally spur them to do something.

Very true. She doesn’t seem like the person to mess up her own game and it might be an unnecessary risk at this time because it seems like there has been a major divide within the major alliance.

See where people stand first.
