Hey! Let's surround our campfire with WOODEN CHESTS, filled with supplies, and then leave it unattended while we all go away for the day!

Based on
Brenda's interview at Reality News Online, she saw it coming, but she found out too late before tribal council, and it came as such a surprise to her that she was, in her words, "paralyzed." And knew Sash wouldn't give her the idol.
RNO: The big question of the day: Why didn’t you use Sash’s idol? Did he refuse to give it to you?
Brenda: Yeah. If I was Sash, I wouldn’t have given it to me either. What people didn’t see is that one reason NaOnka decided I was very dangerous is because I trusted her so much that I trusted her with my plan to take out Sash. When Sash and the guys went out to the reward challenge, I thought, “Sash is probably playing me. If there’s one person who can stop me, it’s him. Maybe I should take him out before he takes me out.” I shared that with NaOnka. I was like, “We have to stick together.” I think that was when she was like, Brenda is [scheming].
One of the first things she said to Sash [on last night’s episode] was Brenda is planning to take him out, so there’s no way he was going to say, “Here you go, girl.” I was going to doing it. The time when I needed his idol or NaOnka’s idol, it didn’t make sense. It was hopeful thinking. You know the song, “All I Need Is a Miracle”? That song was what I was thinking – “All I need is that freaking idol!” But there was no way they were going to give it up.
RNO: We saw Chase and Sash vote against you along with just about everybody else – did you essentially give up and give them permission to do so?
Brenda: We talked and talked about it. I tried to push for Benry and NaOnka and threw out the whole idol thing. In the end, they told me point blank, “We cannot do anything. We have to look out for ourselves in the game.” What do you do when somebody tells you that? I still had hopeful wishful thinking they would somehow be like, “Brenda didn’t scramble because she’s still with us.” I didn’t scramble for a reason! It was not the pride thing. I wanted them to see I’m sticking with you guys ‘til the end. I trust you guys and want to play the game with you guys. That was what I was thinking the whole time and they didn’t [go along with it] – they voted for me. It’s all good and I understand why.
Meanwhile, Purplekelly is clueless, despite her 20 years of wisdom. (Heh.) And old-lady Jane rocked the immunity challenge.
