this is the most vulnerable I have been in the game yet.

- Then fight for it and tell us why.
- I haven't even said in this game, I'm a Faithful,
because I don't think I have to prove that.
I think I just am.
The best thing I can do is to be unvarnished and be myself.

like an Achilles' heel for me.
I get taken advantage of. - Sure.

The other alarm bell that rang for everyone today

it was Tara, Tara, Tara.
And we said, well, let's get some money,
