Honestly, seeing the twist play out, I'm not a fan. The first option (giving her a chance to talk to her husband) was rather sweet and would've been okay because it would've been just restarting the round, while the second and third options essentially gave her an advantage for being voted out.

At least Carolyn has to actually find the idol herself, but at the same time, unlike the Edge of Extinction returnees or the Outcasts returnees, she didn't have to earn her way back into the game in anyway. She was just given an idol clue for being voted out, and this second chance, to me, is completely undeserved. I mean, the twist itself isn't her fault, but from this point forward, however many more days she remains in the game has an asterisk beside it since she's getting this second chance for doing nothing.

If Carolyn chose to switch the tribes, I still wouldn't have been a fan since she'd have control over the switch, and again, that still falls under her being given an advantage just for being voted out, although I think that option would've been more interesting. Personally, I would've preferred if she was presented with 3 unfavourable options such as (just going off the top of my head)
 * Tribes switch and she gets exiled until after the next elimination, joining the losing tribe
 * No tribe switch and given the choice of Redemption Island or Edge of Extinction until the merge where she has to earn her way back.

So yeah, that's just my two cents, and as much as Bradley is an ass, I totally understand his reaction of seeing his nemesis get voted out only to have her not actually leave.

On the plus side, I at least like Carolyn as a character (I would've been more pissed if this was Jim). I'm just not a fan of the principle of this whole thing. At least the last time there was no elimination, Johnny was forced to mutiny.

I love your writing and how invested I am with a lot of these characters. But yeah, the principle of this twist just bothers me, and the last thing I want to see is a Carolyn win now because, as I said, she was given this second chance for doing nothing.
