I think Monte missed it on purpose. He wanted other people to do his dirty work. He figured either Taylor or Turner would win and he'd be forced to put the other up.
I also think he is absolutely correct in needing to save Turner. He needs someone who can win the next comp. Of course, Turner may not have his back after all.
I think Alyssa has a lot of nerve thinking she has done anything at all in the game, and yet, there's a really good chance she finishes top 3.
Buy on the way up!!! Just my opinion, of course.
