Have you guys listened to Nick from last season's podcast exit interview with AK? Because they really dug into some stuff that was never aired that totally changed my whole viewpoint on some of the things you were talking about, including the fact that when he played his idol for Jarrad it was with perfect forethought and careful reasoning, including the fact that the way the votes had been set up there was actually a chance that votes could go to Jarrad that night. After hearing however clever, strategic and tight nit his alliance of five was (AK, Tessa, Jarrad, Pete and Ziggy) I lowkey am convinced that production did not like how in control they had become, and orchestrated that switch to break them up and keep things interesting. (I love how they handed out the buffs, rather than had them picked them out of a sack, total room for manipulation there). As a side note, hilarious how paranoid Lockie is, the moment his name is mentioned he is on a warpath to get out the person who might be wanting to get rid of him, just on one person's word. It will definitely be interesting to see how things play out from here, but I'm pretty bummed AK is out, especially hearing what his alliance had planned for the next vote had he not been swapped. It would've been so entertaining to see.
