Tozza, maybe my issue with Maria stems from how I’m reading her character in particular. I’ve gotten the sense that this whole thing with Phyllis and Maria’s secret of being an Olympian has almost taken over who she is in the game, and given the dynamics of the tribe, along with the fact that Phyllis is clearly not interested in exposing Maria’s secret, I personally don’t see any more forward progression for her right now, which perhaps makes her appear more boring. As such, I am not as invested in Maria as opposed to Oswald, who I feel definitely will be going somewhere in the storyline and I am looking forward to seeing what happens with him, how his relationships with people like Misty and Celia continue to develop, and most importantly, what happens with his idol.

Even if Constance does go out this episode at Isla’s hands, as of this moment, I feel like she is a much more important part of the story of the season than someone like Maria. Her going out of her way to prevent Adrian from taking the dare is an important aspect of who she is, and it adds an interesting layer to this whole thing between her, Isla and Adrian. You say that any old woman walking down the street could be changed with Constance, but I beg to differ. There aren’t a whole ton of people that would be willing to stand up, go out of their way, and go against the grain like Constance did out of fear of “rustling feathers” and I think it just illustrates 1) the bond her and Adrian have, and 2) the strong-willed and motherly nature of Constance, both of which are interesting aspects of her character that I feel like are important parts to the story that Tangle is telling right now.
