Thoughts:

1. Well, this season could actually be... good. Well, I don't want to jinx it, so I won't say anything else.

2. This episode should have been called "That's not an advantage". Yeah, the stupid random advantage thing is dumb and unfair, but hell, if it gives us such hilarious moments, I don't mind, because Devon realizing he just got screwed was one of the best moments of the past... I don't know... 10 seasons of this show!

3. On a more serious note, I was hoping Jessica would give the "advantage" to Devon, so the so-called swing vote would not be in play.

4. Too bad Alan is gone, I preferred it if Ashley would go. Alan would make this season so much more fun and unpredictable, but alas...

5. Joe has turned from an unwatchable character to one of the most interesting ones this season. We'll see if he continues this way.

6. Jessica should have known better. I mean, she saw Cole tell everyone about Joe's idol. It would be smart to assume he would also tell everyone about the advantage. Kind of lost respect for Jessica for not seeing it coming. Seriously, girl, dump Cole, you are too good for him.

7. Per your wishes, less screen time for Ryan this episode. I still think that, while being somewhat annoying, he does not deserve any of the hatred he receives here. I think he made a mistake by telling Chrissy so fast he had given her the idol. he should have waited a bit more.

8. Next week's challenge will hopefully provide some hilarious moments.

9. Also next week: Roark wants to form an all-girls alliance. Who's Roark?

And the player of the week title goes to: Joe. He has earned it, hate him as you will.
