Going along with the notion that Survivor previews and story lines never play out as advertised I believe that the whole story line that Sean was a clueless doofus will be turned around in the final episode to reveal "Sean the the master conniver" in the end. For weeks we have been seeing "Sean the doofus" from other tribe members about his voting and clips of Sean scratching his head wondering if there is an alliance. Here are some reason why we should believe he is and has been a part of the alliance:
1.) No logical reasons for Sean voting Gervase last week when he knew that Colleen and Kelly would allign if he joined them.
2.) ESPECIALLY no reason for Sean to vote Colleen off this week. He gives no reason related to strategy for voting her off.
3.) Gervase mentioned on Early Show that "Sean had no idea what was going on..clueless...." Had to be intentional mis-information just like Rammona calling Gretchen "Survivor". Contestants are sued for 5 million for giving ANY hints about the winner. Saying he was clueles would pretty much bethe same as saying "he didnt win."
4.) After hearing him be called "Doctor Idiot" Sean calls in to a radio show to defend his voting strategies basically saying nothing but wanting to let people know there was a method to his madness and that we will see he isnt a doofus.
5.) Even nice Doctors tend to have inflated ego's. I dont think a successful neurologist would take being called a "Neurotic Idiot" and "ball-less" by Sue without wanting to extract some sort of revenge.....unless there was a good reason not too.
6. We see him still pondering whether there is an alliance after three straight votes against Pagong members....come on he isnt just a doctor he's a Neurologist...dont buy the "naieve Sean"
7. He lied in one episode about never having been asked to be a part of an alliance. We saw Richard saying he did ask him the week Dirk got voted off.
8. Grethchen makes a generic comment on her early show interview that the last episode is played up for maximum drama ...i think thats we we find out the truth ..SEAN IS PART OF THE EVIL EMPIRE!!!!!
