As much as I love Natalie as a character, and as much as I understand her frustrations, I feel like anybody with half a heart should understand Kline's motives for taking the temptation. In saying that, I will cut Natalie some slack because I don't recall Kline fully opening up to her about his family (someone correct me if I'm wrong though), and as she's said, she's very frustrated with her spot in the game. However, beyond everything, Kline has made it clear that family is the most important thing in his life. I would've loved to see much more of Kline on the season, especially given that you teased a full on blow-up between him and Jeffrey (seriously Waffle, why did you rob us of that?) but family is the most important thing in my life as well, and I totally get why he took the $75,000, especially because above everything going on with his family, there are still these two tidbits:

1) We are still in the pre-merge, there is a lot of game remaining and who knows what might happen down the line, especially with the canaries existing. At least the 75,000 is a certainty for him, and there's a decent chance he wouldn't get nearly that much money if he stayed.

2) Pasha literally just got taken out of the game by an advantage. Especially given how twist-heavy the last couple of seasons were, and how twist-heavy this one is shaping up to be, Kline would have to have an IQ lower than Winnipeg's windchill in January to not think the same might happen to him.

So yeah, it sucks that Kline left the game pre-merge both his seasons, especially since I was really starting to thoroughly enjoy him as a character in this episode. Although as I said, I respect his decision to leave with the guaranteed money.

Someone I don't respect however, MICHELLE!

''Seriously! Michelle robbed THORN of her place in the game (even as a canary) and she pulled this shit?! ''I don't give a fuck what Michelle thought her chances of joining the game were, she still knowingly went out there for a shot to win a million dollars, but between the elements and a bad attitude, she couldn't handle it and QUIT!? For the love of all that is good and holy, Michelle had better keep her utterly toxic presence away from any future season. If she wasn't cancelled before, she certainly is now. Good riddance!
