"Janu quiting - what we didn't see"
I haven't seen this anywhere so I'll post it now. I think this solves the confusion over whether Janu will be on the jury.

^Janu Tornell quits `Survivor' amid off-camera jury uncertainty
^By DERRIK J. LANG
^Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — Quitters never win, but if they make it far enough on ``Survivor,'' they get to be on the jury.
Janu Tornell, 39, became the fourth person in ``Survivor'' history to quit the competition, but she'll still help decide the winner of the $1 million prize as a member of the nine-person jury — a heated issue the tribal council cameras didn't capture.
``It wasn't to save Stephenie (LaGrossa) in the game,'' Tornell told The Associated Press Friday. ``It ended up like that. At the same time, it was almost like a power play because I threw a wrench into their game.''
The former Las Vegas showgirl said host Jeff Probst didn't coerce her into departing ``Survivor: Palau,'' although it may have seemed otherwise.
``He aided me,'' said Tornell. ``I was at the point where I thought, `I want to go, but I don't want to jeopardize being part of the jury.' I was still battling with `quitter.' I hate that word. But I did it. I laid down my torch. No regrets whatsoever.''
Viewers didn't see Tornell's concern about whether she would be on the jury if she quit the CBS reality show. After going back and forth for several hours, Tornell said Probst asked for a break in the filming.
``The cameras stopped,'' said Tornell. ``Tribal council got really heated. You guys didn't even get any part of that. (Probst) goes, `This is off the record. What's going on, Janu? What are you worried about?' And I said, `Basically, I don't want to lose my place in the jury. I don't know where this takes me.''
Tornell said Probst left the tribal council area and consulted with producers. (The three players who quit ``Survivor'' in previous seasons departed before juries were formed.)
``It was all a new drama situation for everybody involved,'' said Tornell.
Probst returned and assured Tornell that she wouldn't forfeit her place on the jury by quitting. The cameras started back up, and Tornell did just that.
Now, as a jury member, she'll be on the lookout for the player ``who I thought played the game the best.''
