To be fair, getting Ali out before the Jury is a logical move. That being said, man, I get Ali was badgering him, but Ryan was surely not apologetic. He's keeping this narrative that "you're getting close to Roark" like Ali shouldn't have been too close to her. Problem is? YOU JUST SAID OK IN ALI'S PLAN TO VOTE OUT CHRISSY! What is the problem in just saying that you like Roark, but she has to go being that she's a Healer, and that Healers are getting more dangerous, as seen with Levu? Why was Ryan so scared of Ali that he was SO SURE that Roark already got to Ali?

Not only that, he was wrong on his assumption that Ali and Chrissy cannot work! I think if Ryan just did a good job in trying to make Ali and Chrissy bond together, I think they may respect each other, and work even if they don't necessarily bond, I mean we see oil and water players do well as long as both have the same interests. But NOOOOO... Ryan has to be so awkward, and IMO maybe a bit insecure, that he just can't trust Ali anymore, and shut her out.

That being said, I felt the best move for Chrissy was to vote out Ryan! Why? Ryan is the only one who knows about the superidol twist. In order for Chrissy to play her idol as a decoy, no one must know the knowledge of it. By simply saying to Ali and JP that she thinks Ryan is sneaky for not giving the former the information to vote out Roark + their conversation where Ali said to Ryan that HE was the one who brought up Chrissy's name, it would IMO be an effective blindside, Chrissy gets a neutral ally in Ali (who sided with her thinking it would be a trust move with Ryan), and a weasel (as Ryan said himself) gets voted out.

But hey, Ryan must be doing something to still make these players believe him, although I wonder if Chrissy wants to genuinely keep him, or bring him as a goat. Merge time is coming, and it will be the first time where none of the previous tribe configurations would create a majority. It's tribe vs. tribe vs. tribe, intwined with tribe vs. tribe vs. tribe, it's going to be nuts I feel. That being said, with the way the game is going, I think the Healers are doomed, as Joe is not exactly a good ally and Yawa Healers are seemingly not giving them a good pitch to side with them.
