Voting Confessionals
"casaya"

- Strictly strategic, sorry. I hope we can be friends after.

"casaya"

- This is not to vote you out Courtney, but this vote here is to help keep in check and make in the game for all the other ladies. And, um, you seem to challenge everything, uh, you ask me all the time, and, some of the time, it's irritating. I've grown to like you more, but, uh, this is not... you're probably not going to be voted out tonight, but this is just to remind you, um, and I hope you have more respect for me, because I've been growing to like you more.

"casaya"

- Bruce, you know we get down, dawg. I'd drink that wine with you every time. Forget them. I couldn't tell them the real reason why I drank it; it's 'cause I have no respect for any of them. I drank it 'cause I didn't want them to have it, and of course they didn't. When we get back to LA, steak, seafood, whiskey and a ballgame on Bob Dawg. You know this didn't come from me. You know who did this. Bob.

"casaya"

- This is a throwaway vote. It's confusing, but it doesn't mean anything. I tried to make my vote go away.

"casaya"

- Hey, I think you're a great brother, and I wish you the best, but this is purely strategic to protect myself.

"casaya"

- Bruce, I just didn't think I could trust you.

"casaya"

- Bobby, you let yourself... you're just too egotistical and you're selfish. You just need to learn how to communicate better with people, and open up.

Final Words
"casaya"

- I didn't expect to be here this early. I feel like I never really got my game off the ground. I could have played it differently but to be truthful, I just couldn't stomach these jokers. People at Casaya were bonding together out of weakness and out of desperation. Courtney, Danielle and Shane are spineless little twerps, all of them. Being around them made me want to throw up.
