I'd guess that Sarah was more than willing to work with Natalie and Michele than Denise was, and showing that they're willing to work with her by voting out Denise. On top of that, putting them to make a fire challenge creates a hero in the jury's eyes.

Also lok the person that spent the most time at EOE and probably started the fire a dozen times will at worst have to build one to get to F3.

Yeah, agreed. I think if Sarah wasn't so stubborn sure she was in control she would have been open to going into survival mode. But I think Denise would have as well. They just all locked in somewhere in the middle of Jeremy and Michelle trying to break through.

And not only would the fire making challenge become a hero resume moment for the winner but it could seem like a cutthroat move to the jury and play badly. It would be one thing if they like had Sarah vs Tony facing off but Denise feels like collateral damage.

Did Denise not know she was at the bottom of their totem pole or just didn't want to risk making a breakout yet?

Jeremy or someone made a comment a couple of weeks ago that she's just zoned out and she said something similar herself in tribal. I think Denise just got worn down by the game and went on cruise control.

She was pitching them to take out Tony at 4 which they really should have, so that makes sense, but I still don’t think that approaches a win for her.

Yea there was that tribal with Jeremy a few episodes ago where Denise just put her hand up and said "I'm done." Seemed like it was just she was done with the tribal / conversation, but seems like maybe she was just done with the game at that point and had nothing left.

Yeah, and I think the next week Jeremy was going through his options and said she was just tapped out. And then in tribal she gave a speech about how she was feeling burned out but got a boost from something. So I think Denise just got worn down and once Kim was gone she just went all in with that 4 and closed herself off to Jeremy/Michelle/Nat.

Nat straight up showing Sarah the idol was a huge blunder. Spy nest was fun but irrelevant. Come on Nat!

Sarah's just screwing herself further with the jury by making a fake turn and letting Tony do the move with no blood.

I don't think Nat showing the idol is that big a deal. She's playing it and the best chance of flipping things is probably scaring Ben/Sarah into turning against the other at the risk of getting idoled.

I don't know. 99% of the time exposing your idol is a mistake but I just don't know that it really makes a difference in this situation and might confirm the paranoia.

Honestly spy nest is a power move by Tony

He doesn't have to TRUST Sarah, and she can't lie
