How does taking yourself off the block show trust in your alliance? Can anyone explain that to me? Thank you :)

Ketchup, she was just doing that to tease everyone (us the viewers, the HGs, the producers) she did it to make everyone THINK she wasn't gonna use it.

I think because that is what Jun told her to do. I was worried there for a moment though.

Ali was just trying to mess with the viewers - drama, drama, drama!

I thought Allie inadvertantly sent a message to the women that she didn't trust them to not vote her out because she used the veto to save herself! LOL !

Ali practiced almost her exact veto speech word for word in the hottub with Erika after nominations. If I hadn't heard the practice run she would have had me wondering too.

Ali is good TV. Much like our dear Will Kirby.

I agree, Ali is a school girl compared to Dr. Will. There is no one who can even come close. They are all just Dr. Will wannabes

I guess Ali was just trying to create drama, scare us or whatnot, but I doubt anyone actually thought for a second that she wouldnt use it for herself. Marcellas did it, because he was trusting, but Ali, no way.

In my opinion, she was having an Ali moment, and she thought she made sense!

My guess is she told Jun all about it and she also told the producers about it, it's called ratings. They'll do anything to try to mess with our brains.

Ali IS a schoolgirl compared to will. He already had gone through his post-grad work to become a doctor - although, not an M.D. She, on the other hand, just finished her BA last year and hasn't yet started any grad school. So, Will was older than she is and had a lot more life experience than she has. Granted, people don't like her. For some reason I can't understand, she doesn't bother me that much. LOL I usually don't like people who play like she does, but maybe it's because of her age.

Jun told Alison that she would put her up so that she could not make a deal with anyone else. That would be assuming that Alison would use the veto to save herself.

What I took away from her veto ceremony was that she was proving that she was following what her Power of Three wanted... use the veto on herself. She was "proving" to the other women that she was in their alliance by using it on herself.

That said, I do think it was a smart thing to do. If she hadn't, Robert would've voted to evict Ali, Erika would've voted to evict Jee, and Jun probably would've voted in the tie-breaker to evict Alison as revenge for forcing her to vote.
