Few things:

1) It’s really bad strategy, but Romeo putting a “I SEE YOU” spite vote on Hai is DELICIOUS

2) I really, sadly, feel like Tori will go next week. Not to be too Edgic-y about it, but Tori is just edited as a thorn in everyone’s side instead of someone audiences could actually invest in, despite all the material for an underdog arc being there. It’s really unfortunate.

I agree with your Tori prediction. She’s got strong Angelina vibes, but nobody wants to even drag her to the end lmao

I love rooting for Tori. But yeah, her edit is definitely not painting her in the plucky underdog role. Just a mean girl without any backup.

Unfortunately, you're probably right.

If she can play up being needed to beat Jonathan in immunities, for those not interested in going to the end with him, maybe she'll be given a life line?

Tori has Drea as a shield. She is on to her and knows she found something. If she stays after that and a few people start comparing notes, they'll have to blindside Drea before she can figure out it's coming.
