Talk:Ethics Don't Exist/@comment-26485526-20181211022641

Okay, time for me to give my thoughts on this episode.

I will say it was amazing and that I did not expect the boot, I fully expected Brooklyn to have gone home. Not necessarily because of the contents of the episode, but I'm just really confused by this being the end to Kendra's story, with one of her last sentences being this quote:

"Now I look like a stupid idiot for voting Jamie out last Tribal" We just saw an entire season of Kendra having an emotional internal battle, and I was really thinking there was going to be some sort of moment where everything clicks for Kendra and she starts to actually value herself as a person. She went from threatening to commit suicide on day 8 to calling herself a stupid idiot on day 37, when Chris Jericho would've called 15-17 of her cast-mates "Stupid idiots" before her, and also saying at the start of the episode she didn't deserve to have friends? I like Brooklyn too (not as much as Kendra or Samantha, but I do like her), but I am just utterly baffled at the real lack of a growth arc here since I was really rooting for Kendra to develop some actual self-worth, and it doesn't seem like it happened. I get that there's a good chance for Kendra to get voted onto Lombok, but what if she doesn't? I dunno, I'm just rambling at this point, but yeah, I think the story just seems unfinished, and I like Kendra more, so I was shocked and disappointed at the result.

Brooklyn probably is winning at this point, which I would say is "satisfactory," simply due to her edit, and Samantha seemingly being painted as a callous bitch with all the emotional manipulated she's done. I do love Samantha, and I love how such a natural villain she is, so I am rooting for Samantha to pull it out, but I doubt it's happening.

I think Samantha made an incredibly stupid decision to vote Brooklyn out. For one thing, she just kissed Kendra's jury vote "Good-bye." It's also not like Brooklyn hasn't been carrying around a neon sign and yelling into a megaphone saying that she's targeting Samantha or anything. She knows that she has a good chance of beating Kendra, she knows that Brooklyn's gunning for her hardcore. Force the 2-2 tie! She had nothing to lose by doing that, and now she just let her biggest threat to the million slide into the final three, and sent someone that wasn't getting many votes to the jury pissed off.

At the end of the day, it's interesting to see all three members of the "Eddiot and the Angels" alliance reach the final three since that alliance was formed so early in the game.

Great job on the season overall Tangle! I can't wait to see the conclusion!
