This is all the producers' fault. You DON'T put Brandon on the same tribe with another crazy guy like Phillip. I mean, Coach is also crazy, but he is easier to get along with because he is not a dictator who forces you to play their games. This is why Coach and Brandon became such good friends in SP.

Phillip, however, is a completely different story. he will not tolerate those who don't want to play along, so it was obvious he won't find an ally in Brandon. Brandon doesn't like it when people bully him and play games with him he doesn't want to play. There was a clash, it was ugly. The Favourites did the right thing by sending Brandon home, because what happened there was way beyond the game and way beyond strategy. In such cases you stop the game and try to resolve the issue, so the game can continue.
