In the weightlifting challenge, she nearly outlasts someone at a minimum eighty pounds heavier. She was picked as a 46 year old, 100 pound woman.
She is well-liked throughout the jury.
In this episode, she correctly realizes that Timbira is in need of an alliance. When Sierra vehemently opposes, she plays it correctly, pushing the blame onto Sierra and resolidifying herself with JT and Stephen for the time being.
In the next episode, she is talking about taking out Coach... but to me it seems like she is plotting to create a woman's alliance and offering Coach if need be. She's really playing this game hard.
JT is playing better, because he's got to win immunity against five girls and hasn't been targeted yet.
In short, Debbie's lie was justified so STFU
