The trouble with ___
Post Body

Ben.

Admittedly, I'm not a fan (and wish it was Devon). But I think the current perception of him is a bit skewed. Everyone is focusing on him spilling the beans to everyone anytime someone tries to put a plan together. As a viewer, yes, this is absolutely frustrating - if not painful - to watch.

But it also happens to be...smart.

He's literally playing not just both, but EVERY side. By constantly being the one to dime out the plan, he's ensuring that people not named 'Ben' are fighting with each other, targeting each other. It's a high risk game plan considering no one likes "the rat". But IF he gets to FTC and IF Tony is not there....he has a legitimate case to make that he's done a lot to get there (and not just building fire). If I was on the jury, (based on what we know so far) I would seriously give him consideration to win.

Given the edit, I still don't like his social game. He does have an idol. He has a lot of options (which not everyone still in the game can say). And based on the preview for next week, I'm thinking the rest of the cast is starting to realize this and they'll start targeting him.

Nevertheless, I'm still on Team Jeremey but I'm learning to cut Ben some slack.
