HEY Chris,

I figured that was where the question was rooted from and I wanted to confirm it. So I want to give you the full truth about this and regardless of what I'm about to say I'm sticking by your answer to my question.

I was locked in to the final 3 with us and Nicole 100% and she can attest to the fact that when she pitched the idea that you had to go, I resisted it, pushed back, and constantly reminded her that we were going to be on the outs and the next two to go if we booted you - which is exactly what happened.

I didn't not do anything to help prevent your boot, at that point I obviously knew that the only way to save you was to ride it out with Nicole, because I knew there was no way we were gonna convince some combination of Cali/Jack/Nora to go with us to vote against the other. I was going back and forth with Nicole the entire day about the vote but she wasn't budging. At that point I had to go along with it because the only other alternate was me. That's why when I was told by Nicole it was you I had to keep quiet, because I truly do believe that had you known ahead of time, you were skilled and persuasive enough to have convinced everyone else not named Nicole to have voted me out. And even then, if it had leaked that you were the target, it would've broken all my trust with Nicole who was the one to take the votes off of me in the first place, from which point I probably would've been the boot.

I understand if you hearing all this might make you believe I never wanted to ride it out to the end with you but I'm saying with every last bit of confidence I have that that WAS my intention and I ONLY had to break from it when it was either you or me. You will see in confessionals or VL's, which I know we don't exactly have access to rn, which turns me to say say you can ask Nicole, I wanted to see it through to the end. I'm genuinely sorry that I couldn't tell you, and I understand if you might be about to say that you weren't going to do anything to put the votes on me, but I couldn't risk even so much as its possibility being so close to the end, and I had to prove my trust with Nicole that I wouldn't leak. I hope you can understand the position I was in having to fight to stay alive at the end but I also can understand why my actions were incredibly selfish.

I'm sorry again and as for your vote, I obviously would want it but I'm sticking with my answer to your question, if only one can be salvaged at this point I'd much rather have your friendship when this is over.
