Cirie has always played the numbers and is buring her candles at both ends. Her agreement to stick with Pav/Amanda seemed a bit forced and I'm sure she was cornered into that agreement. If she was so hot on THAT alliance why did she have such a sour look when Amanda pulled out the HII? Her usual smiley face was totally gone....tells me she didn't know about the HII. Was I the only one who noticed that Natalie and Alexis indicated that it was Cirie who mistakenly believed she was in control of the game (but was not). Everyone else voted that it is Pavarti who mistakenly "thinks" she is control of the game. If everybody believes that neither Pavarti nor Cirie is in control then who is left? Hmmm that would be Amanda. It is clear that Amanda is viewed as controlling the game at this point. Face it, Cirie only has a chance to win if she is up against Alexis and Natalie.

I think that Cirie will actively work to try and engineer an Amanda and/or Pavarti boot by aligning with Eric and Natalie but will be thwarted in the end. Great episode.
