1) I hadn't planned far enough for Desiree, but Maria was going to be the one who won almost every single immunity if she made it on (although she wouldn't have been like Anastacia).

2) When I was planning the season I did consider an un-merge initially but I couldn't find a way to implement it so I dropped it. I never considered a final two. If I had implemented the un-merge it would have lasted for two rounds, rather than one.

3) As I said with Angela, I had a redemption story in mind. Lulu would have been some sort of Hazel-esque game. As for Alfonso, I really would have invested in him being competent strategically. Of course there would have been a lot of food-related puns too. :p
