00:00Well, that's the dream scenario, isn't it?

00:01It's like you're a faithful and you think your partner might be a traitor.

00:03Someone might bring home that money.

00:05Exactly. That was our game plan going in.

00:08Yeah.

00:09Did you ever suspect Ross, Ellie?

00:11The only time I suspected you was at the traitor's pick

00:14because you looked a little sweaty at that traitor's pick round table.

00:17And I thought, why is he so sweaty? It's so cold.

00:20Ellie, you should have known more than the public.

00:22I'm a sweaty boy.

00:24Actually, as a viewer, I was the first thing I learned about you.

00:27I'm competitive and I get sweaty and I become sweaty Ross.

00:31Guy knows his brand.

00:33At least he owes it. That's the important thing.

00:38I've got to go over there and mop his brow.

00:42Nice to meet you. Sweat off.

00:45Did you sit down before the show

00:47and come up with how you were going to act around each other

00:49and set each other any rules, you know, no eye contact, that sort of stuff?

00:54Not too many because we knew that there were just going to be

00:56so many surprises thrown at us.

00:57We'd have to kind of react in the moment.

01:00I think our major plan was just to like bond with different people in the game

01:04so that we could defend each other, you know, in different social groups.
