OMG OMG OMG I love Ami. Are you really related to Ami? I'm starstruck. For reals. One of the most underrated Survivor players ever. She was edited as a pretty big villain, though. Is she evil and manipulative in real life? I…kind of hope so.

I hope he doesn't mean she was on two seasons - like she's Parvati or somebody - but that she was on *two episodes*, like she's RI Kristina or something. Al Capwne: my condolences on being related to Kristina.

SPOILER: Will never changes, and I think that's pretty awesome. Big Will fan. The problem is, the "conflicts" turn into typical West Wing "Will is the bad guy" strawmanning.
