As Sophi buried her face in her fingers in humiliation and allies Rizo Velovic and Savannah Louie tried to understand what was taking place, host Jeff Probst made it official: “So Steven doesn’t have a bonus, and now, Soph, neither do you.”

The host mentioned the intricacies of this new equal components scrumptious and diabolical twist on the newest episode of the On Fire With Jeff Probst podcast, revealing that sure, the precise result’s what they have been hoping would occur once they put the pre-Tribal Council wrinkle into impact.

It seems Steven was being lied to your entire time, as he was ultimately unanimously voted out, however the true evil magnificence within the twist is what else occurred.

“The second why,” Probst explains, “was as a result of we knew it may influence the Information is Energy, which was additionally within the recreation. So once we're laying this out at first of the 12 months, we don't know who's going to have what benefits and the way it may play out. However we do know this: When you play that benefit again at camp, that secret Block-a-Vote has now been performed. The benefit is gone. It doesn't exist. It hasn't been revealed, but it surely's now not a bonus that may be stolen.”

Whereas it made for an embarrassing second for the assured, self-proclaimed Silent Murderer, it’s not like Sophi essentially did something incorrect — until you wish to take into account not taking one of many a number of idols may have snagged for the reason that merge as a substitute.

“So what Soph did that evening, actually, she had all the pieces proper!” Probst says. “She had the data, and she or he had set it up completely. And in virtually some other state of affairs, she would've been proper. She would've stolen Steven's benefit earlier than he used it.”
