Nick obviously doesnt want to get rid of Ashley, and James promised to keep Kai and Daniel safe.

Okay, youre right, probably not.

The Circleloves to keep players in a state of overwhelming paranoia, and for that, we thank her!

In the final blocking before the finale, the two influencers are kept a secret even to each other.

When the time comes to decide who to block, unfortunately for Jacki, her days were always numbered.

Jacki is heartbroken but understanding and insists there are no hard feelings.

Who do we think will pull in the prize money?

Hes such a likable guy, and everyones drawn to his charisma and sense of humor.

Although he and Nick are pretty equally matched, Jamess sincerity inches him ahead.

And crying about how much he loves his grandma definitely earns some bonus points in my book!

in a row (!!!!)

shows just how strong a player he is.

He was worried about Kais ability to sweet talk, but clearly he knows that game pretty well.

Even with Vince gone, Nick could keep himself at the top of the rankings this week.

But Nick being Nick, he did immediately flirt with Jacki in an attempt to win her over.

Is he just a one-trick pony, or has he really bonded with the other players?

Isabella seemed genuine and honest in her apology, bringing Kai to tears.

She decided to fully commit to The Band, despite connecting with James too.

This was the right choice for her considering Nick was able to save her from being blocked twice.

3 behind Isabella and Nick.

Kai

I dont think Kai has any chance of winning at this point, unfortunately.

She played a strong game, but maybetoostrong.

The shuddering, full-body cringe I got from Nicks #TalkNerdyToMe message to Jacki cannot be overstated.
