I understand what you are saying, but I do believe Lex is the ultimate bad loser. I believe, even if in Kelly's opening statement she mentioned how Lex told her she was going, that she tried talking to Tom/KJ/EZ and she could tell that they were going to vote for her regardless, and that is the ONLY reason why she voted out Lex.......

Even if Kelly said that in her opening statement (which she almost certainly would), it might work vs EZ/Tom/KJ.

It would NOT work vs Lex. Lex would probably deny ever telling Kelly that, that he wanted to blindside her.

And Lex might even say it, at the time of Final Tribal Council was filmed, might flat out lie and say he NEVER told her she was getting voted out, all to try to keep Kelly from winning. I think he was delusional enough in his rage to deny ever saying it at the time of Final TC; and would at the reunion admit he lied.

Kelly did promise to Lex on her parents and brother that she had nothing to do with the vote against Lex. I think in Lex's mind, that was a promise to be loyal to him and would cite that as his reasoning for being anti-Kelly.

As to how any of this would work against EZ/KJ/TOM, we will never really know.

EZ did seem to acquiese to Lex a lot out there, deferring to him a lot. EZ would certainly feel that Kelly "betrayed the team" and that might be a pivotal reason for him to vote Brandon. That plus Lex working behind the scenes, telling EZ that he never told Kelly they were turning on her, and how she betrayed them on her own I just don't see EZ voting Brandon.

KJ would be less certain I think. A lot depends on Kelly's final TC performance and if her and Brandon got some time to bond/mesh.

Tom I think would be 50/50 to vote for Kelly/Brandon depending on their final TC, if Lex could get tripped up by Kelly in what would be all out war in their jury questioning.

Frank would probably vote Kelly, but you never really know. Maybe he would be swayed by Kelly's call for Boran solidarity (which I think she would do) and vote Brandon, but it is a stretch.

I see Kim P voting Brandon, but it would not be anti-Kelly at all. Depends on how Kim P was taken out of the game.

Again, we will never know.

What Whydawg said!!!

Basically I think Brandon hated what Frank was to him in real life that to him, thwarting any chance had at winning was more important then winning the game itself.

Which is sad because had Brandon put his personal issues aside I would have told him the ULTIMATE victory to prove himself over Frank, well there were several different things he could have done to do this....

5) Even if taking out Lex led to Frank going farther in the game then Brandon, Brandon would have always been viewed as one of the great players ever for making it happen.

4) Brandon takes out Lex AND gets farther in the game then Frank did....again, Brandon wins because he is viewed as the one that made things happen.

3) Brandon makes it to the final two vs Kelly/Kim P/T-Bird and loses and Frank did not vote for him....again, this would be a win because Brandon made it as far as he did, and is still viewed as the player that made things happen.

2) Brandon makes it to the final two and wins vs Kelly/KimP/T-Bird- Brandon not only wins the game of Survivor, but if Frank voted against him, Brandon would look ever better for it.

And the ultimate scenario for Brandon......

***Brandon wins the game of Survivor against Frank with the Jury voting brandon. No matter what the final vote was, this would have been the ultimate victory for Brandon in his 'war' against Frank.

Instead, I think we have to say that Frank won the war instead.

Frank outlasted Brandon, Frank voted for the winner while Brandon did not; Frank showed he would work with Brandon to get further into the game whereas Brandon did not. Overall, I think Frank if this were a war between what Frank stood for vs what Brandon stood for, that Frank clearly prevailed over Brandon.
