I think the AP twist was good at first, but it's becoming ever apparent that it would never work for Eric's strategy. BUT, it has resulted in Dick/Daniele disbanding from the LNC, so it's produced some very nice results, in my opinion.
The thing is, Eric doesn't really put in that much effort to get whoever evicted, and I can't say I blame him. America voting Kail out, when Eric had pushed for Nick already, what could he do?
But it's Eric, so, whatever.
