Agree that she played the game better than anyone else and deserves the win. Hard to make a case for anyone else. Jorj has been out of the country for awhile taking care of business. It will take him some time to catch up with all of the episodes, but I'm sure he'll kick in his opinion when he can.

Totally agree with everything you wrote. The other two were just floaters.

----- I saw the opportunity for that move by Nat and blurted it out as a prediction just before Natalie pulled out the idol and gave Jaclyn immunity. It was a fine move! And I am proud to have seen it coming. ----- The best move of the season imo was Reed's statement in which he referred to Missy as the "Evil Stepmother". It wasn't a move that advantaged Reed, but I think it should count as influencing the outcome of the game. I think that statement sunk Missy's hopes totally. Of course it could be that no one on the jury was failing to already agree with that characterization of Missy, but I had not previously heard any mutterings indicating that. The "Wicked Stepmother" statement from Reed certainly gave the jury members second thoughts if they were planning to vote for Missy. Reed's statement was so well-constructed; so articulate; so convincing! Made Baylor cry, too, which I liked. ----- I liked this season and liked the outcome. ----- One more thing--- I thought Nat missed a great opportunity for a joke. After winning, when asked a question about having always previously done everything with her sister Nadiya, she could have said (with a straight face) "This outcome makes it clear that Nadiya has been holding me back all these years. I am dumping Nadiya totally from my life and expect to be much more successful in all future endeavors by staying on my own."
