314

315
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,640
<i>[Buteau] </i>James gonna get
some serious exercise

316
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,520
<i>with all that jumping to conclusions</i>

317
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,520
<i>This could go very well</i>

318
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,160

319

320
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,560

<i>How're you so young, and your shirt old?</i>

324
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,440
<i>I seen a 65-year-old man wear that</i>

325
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,640
<i>[Buteau] </i>If only Daniel knew
more cooking terms

326
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,920
<i>so he could understand</i>

327
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,760
<i>Oh, I'm just hoping there's something</i>

328
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,840

331
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,480
<i>He can make me</i>
<i>a… a good-ass sandwich or something.</i>

332
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:53,200
<i>Calvin might be the first guy I invite.</i>

333
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,080

334
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,560

335

<i>[Buteau] </i>That may be, James,

337
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,080

<i>Um, the person I think</i>

640
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:13,400
<i>Circle, please lock in Ashley</i>
<i>in my first place spot.</i>

641
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,920
<i>If she gets the influencer spot,</i>

642
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,000
<i>I am super confident, and I know</i>
<i>that she would have Jackson's back.</i>

643
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,280
<i>Nick has been my number one ally</i>
<i>since pretty much the beginning,</i>

644
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:29,000
<i>and we're on the exact same page</i>
<i>on who we want gone, which is Kai.</i>

645
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,440
<i>So for that reason, I'm gonna have</i>
<i>to put Nick in first place.</i>

646
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:39,240
<i>In first place,</i>
<i>I would like to put Ruksana.</i>

647
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:41,800
{\an8}<i>I can trust her.</i>

648
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,280
{\an8}<i>I feel like she would fight for me</i>
<i>if someone wanted me gone.</i>

649
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,160
<i>Circle, I'm giving Calvin</i>
<i>my number one spot.</i>

650
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,920
{\an8}<i>Because he's my number one ally,</i>
<i>and he's always been loyal,</i>

651
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,960
{\an8}<i>and he seems to have my back</i>
<i>at every turn.</i>

652
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,760
{\an8}<i>First on my ratings will be Kai.</i>

653
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,520
{\an8}<i>She's been nothing</i>
<i>but warm and loving to me.</i>

654
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,320
<i>Yeah, that beautiful smile</i>
<i>will be number one.</i>

655
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,240
<i>Today, I feel like</i>
<i>I really solidified things with Isabella.</i>

656
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,720
<i>I don't think</i>
<i>there is any chance she blocks me.</i>

657
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,440
<i>And if she gets the chance to,</i>
<i>I think she will block Kai,</i>

658
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,360
<i>and that's what I really need to happen.</i>

659
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,800
<i>So, Circle, let's put Isabella</i>
<i>in second position. Lock it in.</i>

660
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:32,120
<i>All right, Circle, in my second position,</i>
<i>I want to put Isabella.</i>

661
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,880
{\an8}<i>Isabella was welcoming.</i>
<i>She's a genuine person, and I like her.</i>

662
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,560
{\an8}<i>I want to choose Ashley</i>
<i>for my third place.</i>

663
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,720
{\an8}<i>I've always felt that Ashley had my back.</i>

664
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,440
<i>I'm going to give fourth place to Ruksana.</i>

665
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,680
<i>Ruksana said already she had my back,</i>

666
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,200
{\an8}<i>and even if she was at the top,</i>
<i>I know she wouldn't go for my head.</i>

667
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,360
<i>Fifth, I would like to place Isabella.</i>

668
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,400
<i>In sixth place, I'm gonna put Calvin.</i>

669
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,240
{\an8}<i>Obviously, I'm not rating him high</i>
<i>'cause I want him to go home.</i>

670
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,120
<i>I don't want him to be an influencer.</i>

671
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,880
<i>I am going to put Daniel in sixth place.</i>

672
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,640
{\an8}<i>I think Daniel won't be a great ally,</i>

673
00:34:11,720 --> 00:34:14,920
{\an8}<i>because I remember,</i>
<i>when I was 12 years old like him,</i>

674
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,200
{\an8}<i>I… I was all over the place.</i>
<i>He's probably too emotional.</i>

675
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,040
<i>I want to keep the band strong,</i>

676
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,880
<i>and I know you are gonna pick the band off</i>
<i>one by one,</i>

677
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,680
{\an8}<i>so for that reason, Kai,</i>
<i>you're going to be in seventh place.</i>

678
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:27,880
{\an8}<i>I'm so sorry.</i>

679
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,360
<i>Please put Calvin in my last place spot.</i>

680
