Let me start off by saying that YES it is so fucking frustrating seeing Dom and Wendell literally trail blaze everyone else for another episode straight - i was really excited to finally see women on a reality show come together and work cohesively... BUT...
Kellyn literally gave Laurel not one, but TWO votes the last episode, whereas Dom and Wendell have both been so loyal to her and made sure she was safe. Laurel had more trust with the 2 guys... that's understandable.
Moreover, Laurel knows Wendell has an idol. You can make the argument, "well surely if she knows he has an idol, she would blindside him." True. But what if she actually did vote Wendell and he ended playing the idol. He stays safe. She loses Wendell and Dom by default. She's pretty much fucked for the next vote. She clearly thought through that scenario.
No matter how you look at it though, Laurel is still in the same position now than she would have been if Wendell was voted out. Ang/Kellyn/Chelsey would have all taken each other to F3 other Laurel anyway, so...
Long story short. Yes it's very fucking frustrating that she didn't make the move. But you have to not judge the player's decisions as a VIEWER, but instead put yourself in their shoes and try your best to assess the situation somewhat similar to the way they would have done when they were on the island. People need to be less butthurt and use a bit of common sense really.
I 100% ageee. She was stuck between a rock and a hard place but her and Don can STILL form a majority at the next vote if need be. Plus, Kellyn made that alliance out of pure anger after the loved ones visit, who's to say she'd stay loyal to it after she calmed down???
She doesn't have to trust Kellyn. But use her to get out the big threats. OR if she is so pissed at Kellyn for the votes then get Dom and Wendell to take Kellyn out. And to remind you she voted Kellyn so doesn't really have the right to be that pissed.
If her goal is to make it to the end congratulations i guess but the point is to try to win and she has NOTHING on her resume and is going to the end with the 2 biggest threats (and even she knows they're the biggest threats).
"She loses Wendell and Dom by default. She's pretty much fucked for the next vote. She clearly thought through that scenario."
That's incorrect, LeXXXy. Not only would her side still be up four to three, but she'd be able to tell Sebastian about the plan to give him fifth or whatever.
