I got a phone call at the very end, unfortunately! Sorry I missed the ending w/you all. To me, Phaedra overreacted during the banishment and after the fact, and I wished Parv would've explained herself to Phaedra (maybe she did and it just wasn't aired). The way Phaedra reacted to Ekin Su being poisoned was dramatic too, assuming now she'd be targeted. It was all about her. Parv trying to do that chalise thing - Phaedra wouldn't allow one of her friends to get poisoned, yet she wasn't the one having to do the secret poisoning. I thought Parv did a good job, and they should've been thankful she did so well, even if it was someone they wouldn't have murdered right then on a regular night. It didn't look like an easy challenge, and yet she took on that challenge for the group of Traitors, and at least got someone to take the drink. Dan or Phaedra would've stunk at that challenge, and it would've failed. Parv was right that no one would ever suspect Phaedra of being a traitor, and with her group of supporters, she will cruise right to the end. Calling out a whole show though wasn't the best idea, since Phaedra is part of that group, even if she isn't a target yet. But I thought telling Parv that "nobody" likes her was just mean and unnecessary. In the postmortem, it was interesting hearing from Larsa. But all of the clips of Phaedra were of her basically placing all the blame on the other Traitors ("that was all Dan" etc.), and taking no responsiblity herself, where I'd rather see her talk about her role as a Traitor and her part in any of this. While I liked her at first, the more this goes on, the less I am liking Phaedra. And I'm not even a big fan of Parvati's either. This is a very good point. Ekin-Su very easily could have completely outed Parvati if she has been smart enough to remember that moment....and Parv's entire game would have been done. She really did kind of "take one for the team" in a sense. And Phaedra didn't even say ...well, good job for getting that done. She went on and on about "NOT EKIN-SU! NOT EKIN-SU!" I just want Dan saved. I honestly don't care about either of the other two And thank you for reminding me about Postmortem! I keep forgetting to watch! Yay, now I have two episodes to watch!

OMGosh, the production on that funeral carriage and those horses is just fabulous. Alan Cumming is rocking it as the host. The outfit, the presence. That funeral procession needs to win an Emmy. It was SO good. I feel like I need to watch that whole thing over again.

Luv'ed the Round Table. CT speaks. Kevin speaks. Wow.
Luv'ed that multiple spoke up and multiple names written.
So glad that Sandra is for the gamers and saved CT.
Breaking up the Housewives is a good thing.
But Peter thinking MJ must be a traitor, why?

Phaedra just signed her death warrant with that ultimatum in the Tower.
She needs to keep a "Kill anyone as long as it's not me" but threatening Parv and Dan like that is not smart.

That comment is SO junior high and MEAN and it is supposed to land and hurt.
Phaedra needs to take a chill pill just because the "Housewives" were targeted does not mean it is an attack on her. Her comment to Parvati was very personal. Her threat to Dan and Parvati was stupid and poor gameplay. It may look good on a "housewive" show but in Survivor, Big Brother, the Challenge it is a stupid move and puts a target on your back.

Breaking up the Housewives is a good thing. But Peter thinking MJ must be a traitor, why? Because everyone put their black rose on her coffin but she wasn't the one murdered....so she must be the one murdering And yes, I'm glad some of the men are becoming more vocal. The women have definitely controlled it so far....and I'm all good with that, but they have definitely dominated thus far. I'm happy Larsa is gone.

But being naive has always been part of his MO. He got away with it on his first season of BB. He acted like a Bergie on his first season but in reality was gaming everyone. It's not going to work well on this show since everyone knows him now and definitely not with Phaedra.

The Traitors do not have to be that twisty, the Faithful will do it for them.

Speaking of MJ and the roses, I didn’t understand why people were pissed that the traitors put their roses in her coffin, too. It’s not like three people not voting for her would’ve gotten them the money, and why would the traitors be stupid enough to out themselves by not putting the roses in her coffin? That made no sense whatsoever!

Yeah. I went back that night and watched that whole section of the show, too. It was really great, and I giggled every time Alan swished his cape! He's the best!

Finished Johnny Bananas interview with Ekin Su. The man really needs to let his guests talk instead of trying to totally control the narrative with his questions and responses.
Ekin Su sees thru his BS.
Bananas continues his Dan Bashing.
The most important piece of information was how Pavarti makes this squinty eyed look every time she is confronted or does know what to do. I did notice the squint eye thing she does and it always put me off because she does it a lot.
Regardless of Bananas constantly telling his guests how to play the game out of 21 guests, 6 have either been murdered or banished, and one left voluntarily and no one has successfully discovered a traitor yet.

Interesting about Parvati. Dan totally has a tell. He rubs his nose when things are tense. (Or maybe it's his mouth, but there's definitely a face-oriented self-soothing of some type going on when he's nervous.)
