Will Chase Question The 'Voting'?

They talked fairly heavily this week about how Chase felt he had to vote for Chico by default, since Randy and Carlee had immunity and everyone else was in his alliance. But, that's not what the producers wanted because Chico is an interesting character.

7 people left: Chase, Allen, Skylar, Allison, Randy, Carlee, Chico. The vote worked out to 3 for Chico, 3 for Allison, and 1 for Chase.

Will Chase be smart enough to figure out that someone in his alliance didn't vote with the group?

The easiest way to explain it away would be that Skylar was freaked out by Allison and wanted her gone, but I'm not sure these producers are smart enough to figure that out.

Oh, I think he's smart enough to figure it out, the question is whether his mind is even on that to thinking in a way to figure that out.

He has to be wondering. This is a big hole if they don't address it. He has to be asking his alliance who they voted for.

Who is in his alliance again, wasn't it LV, Skylar, Allen and Allison? So LV is gone, but the other 3 plus himself makes 4 that should have voted for Chico.

I guess they could assume that Allison may have voted for Chico or Chase, he'll never know now that she's gone.

I think they are. They already had Skylar mention that Allison was saying some awful things about people in their room. So I think the groundwork is there to make Chase think she voted for Allison.

The thing that's kind of annoying is that we know who is booted next since when they were making the commercial, Skylar was not there (or Allison). So we must assume Skylar gets kicked off next, UNLESS there is some other explanation like Skylar and Allison had some other job to do, I dunno.

Not that it matters we know, since its all fake. But it would be nice to be left in the dark. I'm just not sure why they have to keep skipping ahead to activities that happen days after the main portion of each episode.

It really is a bummer that things aired out of order. It's not only a spoiler in a way but just takes away from everything knowing that his reactions to certain things have nothing to do with things that you are made to think effect his decisions. Because something they show happening hasn't really happened yet. It's confusing as a viewer, although most viewers probably don't pick up on a lot of the stuff people on this forum do.

Awww...I've got 3 kids and no money. Why can't I have no kids and 3 money?!

Good point re: Chase's reactions. If they show us something that happened on day 7 in the middle of an episode, then show us an eviction on day 6 at the end of the episode, whatever happened in day 7 will obviously play no role in his reaction to things at the eviction. But we as viewers are watching it in that messed up order.

Like the scene where Chase holds a gun on the fake skip - that happened AFTER LV was evicted, likely. And probably after Allison too (unless they simply were in another van like I suggested). But when we saw the eviction for both LV and Allison, that scene with the skip hadn't happened. It changes how we should view Chase's progression.

I feel as if they are not airing some activities because they might not have gone as planned or simply they felt they weren't "TV worthy", and as a result they have to skip ahead to show things. Which sucks, because this show should be more of a documentary/comedy style than actual reality show. Show us everything, even if it doesn't fit the stereotypical mold.
