Tethering them together could have made for some good tv but instead they used it as two minute filler in an episode.
imagine if he’d set them some interesting tasks to do or had some sort of bonding games while they were tethered.
instead it’s alllll about the challenge and evicting people we never get to see be actual people.
I don’t think it even seemed like sj and tilly were in the panic room for almost 5 hours because it’s just rushed through so we can watch them do a physical challenge only 4 people have a chance at winning.
