Actually, that "one event" was just a few days ago. It happened thursday when Erika and Will voted out CG instead of it going to a tie for Jani to keep CG.

I watched the youtube video, and Erika was arguing that Janelle should take her because Janelle could more easily win against Erika in the F2 than Will, and that Erika was only fighting for second place at this point.

Janelle responded that Erika had broken her alliance with Janelle just last week, and that she didn't trust Erika to take Janelle to the F2 if Erika won HoH.

At this point, Janelle was trying to tell Erika that Janelle was concerned about winning HoH because to lose it would mean not getting to F2. She said she knew Erika would bring Boogie, regardless of what Erika is telling her now.

In the clip, Janelle is telling her, in her own way, that at this point it's no longer about trust. It's about strategy to get to the F2.

Erika doesn't either want to listen or doesn't understand. Instead, she keeps harping that Janelle should trust her, that logic dictates she take Erika, and that CT isn't trustworthy.

Janelle knows CT isn't trustworthy, and doesn't trust any of them. She merely knows Erika has a better shot at winning HoH this week than Will does. All she's trying to do right now is max her chances of winning HoH this week.
