The whole “Uncle Charlie” thing was a way for her to condition him into having more loyalty towards her. I’ve noticed some players do this as a means of manipulation.

Charlie didn't expect Maria to hand him a vote for free? Why not? She handed her vote to Kenzie for free. Maria is nothing but bitter.

[@777RL]

Charlie is humble and I have so much respect for him. Maria was the one who tried to take with him out and failed and he was pretty cool with it after.

[@mollywolly4201]

Precisely. She voted for a person who teamed up with another player to beat her (and her only takeaway from that is she’s honored to know that nobody can beat her without help). - gag. She voted for someone she considered to be a cheater and thinks we don’t see through that? 🤣🤣🤣

[@adamhachey8461]

Emc you are spot on👍👍👍

[@primalmagikarp269]

none of Kenzie's votes were free her social game was absolutely cracked. regardless of how maria's vote made you feel you need to admit kenzie won because she had a crazy social game, and charlie made a game-losing mistake in not realizing that

[@Bennwise]

As the season went on, Maria started to show that everything had to be about her. The reality I feel, is she was an above average player surrounded by a well below average cast. Both Kenzie and Charlie played well enough to win, but Maria's vote was not about voting for Kenzie, but more about not voting for Charlie so she could sit there with a smirk on her face and watch his heart break.

[@albertoguzman45ag]

I’m glad you felt that reality. The reality was that Maria was the best player out of the 5 left.

[@toeguides]

@@albertoguzman45agher game was much sloppier than Charlie’s. I think he could’ve beat her.

[@mollywolly4201]

Maria may have been above average but barely so. And yes, she was playing with a group of astonishingly inept people. Historically clueless and boring as well. Maria in a cast of several excellent players? Please. If she is asked back (please, no!) it will be only for this post-season drama she’s generated with her stanky and grossly immature vote.

[@ryanjohansson8950]

Maria seems like a very clear example of someone with an unhealthy ego that expected to make it to the end and win so seeing her main ally at the end instead of her caused her extreme jealousy and bitterness that it was Charlie instead of her. She was certain that she’d make it to the end and Charlie would be on the jury voting for her to win.

[@diegobodegaluis5125]

@@albertoguzman45agDefinitely not. Maria played WAY sloppier than Charlie. You can argue whether Maria or Kenzie played better, but Charlie played a better game than her

[@Jgk15010]

The fact that Maria would vote for Kenzie after Kenzie and Liz teamed up in an INDIVIDUAL immunity challenge to beat her... Completely blows my mind🤦... This whole season completely blew my mind and the majority of these people actually weren't very good at playing the game of survivor.

Maria approved exactly who she was by not voting for Charlie

[@nealmiles9070]

Proved*

[@fishmurse]

I lost all respect for Maria after she clearly and spitefully didn't give her vote to Charlie. She would find the claim it was spite to be offensive... but only because it would have been exposing the truth.

[@smileygirl622]

She showed her true colors when she cried about Venus exposing her at the tribal council. She was free to take Q on that reward if she wanted and no one would blame her, but to say that she was doing so to give a chance to "the people who needed it the most" then take Q who had just been on a reward? Why? And when the person who needed it the most was obviously Liz because of her allergies. Again I don't think Liz deserves it or anything, it was the public show of being a good person in such a fake, offense way I couldn't take. Everything after that was slimey.

[@stevensawyer5784]

We missed out on Ben accidentally writing down the wrong persons name and crowning them the winner and I am not happy about it 🤣

[@tearlesssumo3283]

Id accept Ben doing that more than Charlie loosing because of Maria LOL

[@phalynwilliams4119]

Ben should never have been there in the first place.

[@EatersFan]

Using how the money will be used is a weak criteria to determine who wins. q and Maria factored that way too much and it almost makes the entire game irrelevant.

[@PhelionOG]

imagine the gaslighting he has received from her this past year to the point where she even told him she regretted the vote at one point but cause the sseson is over, she chose to change up on him to make her "image" look ok for interviews. she's toxic and self-centered, nobody u want in ur life

[@casswashwash1070]

@@PhelionOGthis is a lot to speculate on someone you’ve never met. It could’ve just been alot to handle. In the moment she could’ve felt upset and voted kenzie but then changed heart and felt bad etc. its alot to handle and is a situation we don’t understand unless we play it

[@ed_brcn]

So many signs. You didn't even see the signs.

[@kaatherineyoung]

Yeah, honestly. Throughout the episodes you can see Maria's awful demeanor towards people. He should've seen some of her true colors. However, even through all of that, you would still expect her to vote for you when you've been working together throughout the entire game and played a respectable game compared to the other finalists.

[@phalynwilliams4119]

I lost some respect for Maria after she made Liz beg for food 🥘 and then do rock 🪨 paper 📑 scissors ✂️ and then she took Q on the date. If she wanted to take Q then take him the phoniness was unnecessary. After Maria totally 💯 betrayed Charlie with that final vote 🗳️, I lost all respect for her. I would advise Charlie to have nothing more to do with her. Maria appears to be a mean, vindictive, evil 😈 woman. Venus called her out correctly.

[@adamhachey8461]

Sosososoo funny what Venus said about that was spot on and then she did the same thing to Charlie. She can’t even own what she did that’s why she said all that crap about the fire in kenzie’s eye😂😂 anyone with 1.5 brain cells can see she was just bitter cuz she thought she was a better player than Charlie even though she wasnt😂

[@smileygirl622]

I agree! She drove me crazy, I have never seen anything as fake as that reward "fight", until she didn't vote for Charlie! How dare you pretend you don't know who "needs it more" between Q and the girl who is allergic to everything and didn't eat for like 2 weeks straight. I don't think Liz was owed anything but then just say that and own that. And I loved her until that reward.

[@TexasAxeSlinger]

Maria is a backstabber. Her reason for giving the money was because Kenzie wanted to start a new life. I think Kenzie is a great person, but you don’t ward the winner of survivor based on that criteria.

[@EatersFan]

If Maria told Q to use his idol instead of saying he was safe and Q used it and Charlie was voted out, I am confident Charlie would have voted for Maria.

[@Tes7000]

I agree that Charlie would have given Maria his vote had she made the finals, but if Charlie had gone home in the sixth place because of Q's idol, Maria still would have gone home in 5th place. Kenzie would have won by an even bigger margin against any of the remaining players, provided she made it to the final three, which might not have happened if Q had won the final four immunity challenge. Who do you think would have won with a final three of Q, Ben, and Liz? I think we would have seen a surprise Q win in that scenario.

[@andrewgrey-mk5yn]

I feel bad for Charlie I think he played the best game this season being the only player who was on the right side of every vote but he definitely lost because he choked at final 3

[@electricninja7493]

I wouldn’t exactly say he “choked” but 💯%, Kenzie did a masterful job at the f3. It’s not enough to play a great game, you have to be able to sell it to the jury and Kenzie was absolutely brilliant at selling her game. Ben also said that Kenzie wanted to make fire, she seems to really excel at reading people.

For Charlie to be considered such an exceptional player by the audience, how odd is it that he couldn't find four votes without Maria? Should a vote against Kenzie have even been so close? So while Maria did Charlie's game in, it could also be said that he lost because he kept Kenzie (a player who could win, even if Charlie didn't realize it) while sending home Venus, Q, and Liz (players who were absolutely not winning).

[@CharlesFristians]

[@toxicboy1094]

Who even are these people?

[@debharmon1]

So, for a couple of weeks, I really wanted Maria gone. As Charlie geared up to take her out and Maria formulated the plan to go after Charlie, I hoped that Charlie would be be able to implement his plan first. The way it all went down though, with Liz helping McKenzie, left me feeling a bit odd. I felt like it was close to cheating. I read that Charlie told Maria that she had no hope of staying, but I think Charlie's vote did sting. Charlie should put himself in Maria's shoes, and if she had managed to oust Charlie when she initiated her plan, would his vote at Tribal been automatic for Maria? What if the final three were Ben, Q and Maria? Nothing is automatic, and no one's vote should be considered locked. Especially when five people changed their mind at Tribal.

[@akat3628]

True, but I think that Charlie was more open when Maria was voted out and showed compassion. He held her hand and it came across as respectful to me. She knew she was going. Maria lied to Charlie not just before trying to vote him out, but after when she placed the blame on the others (who had nothing to do with it). It was a clear lie, yet Charlie still held her hand and did not treat her in a mean way. To see Maria appear smiling and cold when Charlie did not win and looked sad told me everything I need to know about her. There was no compassion in her at all. I think that is the real Maria.

[@Jgk15010]

@@akat3628 not only that but also the fact that Kenzie didn't even play a great game. She got carried through the first half of the game by Tiff. Then after Tiff was voted out Kenzie still didn't have anything to worry about since she was literally never targeted at tribal because she simply wasn't a threat in the game. It's not just the fact that Maria didn't vote for Charlie, but the fact she voted for Kenzie even though Charlie played a WAY better game than her. In my opinion, Kenzie is one of the least deserving winners in the history of survivor.

[@drewd3222]

Exit interview Charlie said there was no doubt in his mind his vote would have gone to Maria had they switched spots. Players respect players. It was stated at pondy, Tiff told Maria that Charlie had started gunning after her way earlier in the game n forsure that added insult to injury for Maria. Maria had no intention of voting for Charlie to win going into FTC. Jeff asked who amongst the jury had changed their vote during FTC, 5 Jurors raised their hands stating they changed their vote, Maria was not one of them. Her reasoning for voting for Kenzie “i saw fire in her eyes”, and piggybacking on Q’s what will do w the money question was all BS.

[@aylalopez4356]

Maria was scheming for awhile. I hope Charlie comes back to play.

[@marshajulessa2995]

Looks like you expected her to hand you her vote! Jury mgmt is a thing buddy 😅

[@kadag2968]

Why is Maria getting punished tho, she really wanted Charlie to win but Kenzie was in fact needed it for sure. It was Charlie or Ben’s somehow missed it that maybe they should at least get Liz and not Kenzie. Liz is a millionaire. It was their answer. Kenzie outplayed, outwit, and outlasted everyone. Charlie’s mistake maybe bragging that he been to Taylor’s swift concert which is very expensive. No shade to tay2 fan but it’s too damn expensive. Maria’s decision was in fact a hard and fair one

[@Tes7000]

I think Maria's vote was definitely odd, but should the vote between Charlie and Kenzie ever have been so close that Maria alone could kill Charlie's chances at winning? I think a more significant reason that Charlie lost was that he got too comfortable in his flawed assumption that Maria was his only possible competition in the finals. When Ben chose Charlie to go to the finals, Charlie was sure he was going to win. I've said all of this to say that Charlie lost because he kept Kenzie (a player who could win, even if Charlie didn't realize it) over Venus, Q, and Liz (players who could not win).

[@kadag2968]

@@Tes7000 thank you I mean let’s be honest I love Q and Venus they both made survivor very entertaining. But they’re both cocky and so condescending that the jury will press that question to them. And even Liz with her outburst. If Charlie really wants to win he should have thought it better. And yes Maria’s vote was very sus u cannot blame her, in fact, Charlie said before Q got voted that episode he said he wanted Maria out. With Maria’s final decision she chose what’s in her heart, Charlie made it to the final and he’s a lawyer(I believe) and Kenzie played just a brutal as him but she needed that money more than he does. Every season I keep hearing we should vote out this person because he/she has a winnable story. And that was Kenzie

[@lindsayduede]

Y’ALL Maria is ONE player -> Kenzie’s win is not only on her shoulders. Sizing up her motives or personal qualities from her vote is super unjustified - Charlie is allowed to be hurt and bitter -> the rest of us? Let it go! She’s a person and a player. Her game doesn’t have to follow our guidelines.

[@thebigshark42]

i mean if she votes for Charlie, Ben said he would’ve voted for Charlie so it did kinda cost him the game, but it was her decision and she could’ve voted for anyone it’s jus sad from someone who was a Maria fan

[@SweetRyGuy]

It’s not what she did. It’s why she did it. She’s providing wishy washy reasons when we all know she would’ve expected Charlie to vote for her if the roles were reversed

[@jinxedangel2]

Exactly this, Maria isn't the one who put the last nail in the coffin and there were people that were gonna vote Charlie and then changed their vote. And people can assume that Maria chose Kenzie out of spite and even if that's true, part of this game is emotional. If you can't keep a good relationship with people going into jury, that is part of your gameplay 🤷‍♀️

[@mollywolly4201]

It’s kind of silly to visit a YT fan site and not expect to see people expressing their feelings, which occasionally come across as disappointment. Their preference for Charlie is just as important as your preference for Maria is.

Ben said in the interviews that he would've voted for Charlie. What you see on TV does not encapsulate their full journey.
