Following Episode 8: Abi-Maria remains in the background as she has been for the last few episodes. Her snide comment to Andrew Savage as he left the tribal council set further reminded the audience that she is not well-liked and probably will remain in the game if only to be a finalist who does not receive any votes. As much as I can praise Abi-Maria for being bold and willing to make moves that have benefited castaways still in the game, her unwillingness to play nice will be her undoing.

Following Episode 9: Once again, Abi-Maria's presence in the episode was relatively mute in comparison to the first few episodes of the season. She put up a valiant fight against Joe in the immunity challenge. The fact that she was not picked for the reward challenge shows how poorly regarded she is amongst her tribemates. As noted several times in the past, it appears all remaining castaways are saving a seat for Abi as one of the finalists. Her only hope of winning the title of Sole Survivor is if she can eloquently explain how she intentionally did not hide her abrasive personality, which all along was her strategy for reaching this point in the game. She could very easily make the case that she was the least fake, conniving person in the game, as she was always up front and could be relied upon to show support. She appears to lack such eloquence.

I think it is safe to say that she just topped Crystal Cox for best voting reason ever with "PLEASE GET A HAIRCUT YOU LOOK LIKE A CLOWN"
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

Following Episodes 10, 11, and 12: As stated previously, Abi-Maria seems destined to reach the finals for no other reason than the perception that she is a lock to receive no votes for the title of Sole Survivor. At the most recent tribal council, Joe made a perfectly valid argument about how simply allowing Abi-Maria to take one of the final seats drastically reduces everyone else's odds for reaching the finals. Her only chance of receiving consideration for the title is if she can somehow articulate how this was her strategy from the beginning of the game, to position herself as someone who would be overlooked, since being likeable is not necessarily advantageous (i.e. jurors Joe, Kelly Wiglesworth, Andrew Savage, and potentially jurors Jeremy and Spencer). If Abi-Maria reaches the finals without Kelley Wentworth, she likely would receive winning votes from Kelley, Ciera, and Kass, which means she would only need to convince one or two more jurors. Unfortunately, she does not seem to possess an ability to persuade.

Following Episode 13: At this very late stage, trustworthiness over voting blocs finally was a determining factor in a decision at tribal council. Abi-Maria proved to be too unsteady in her gameplay, as she openly admitted to her tribemates at camp that she was undecided yet willing to shake things up and keep people guessing. With the numbers getting smaller, the castaways did not want an X-factor out there, even if that person appeared destined to receive no votes for Sole Survivor at the end. While she might have demonstrated a certain degree of personal growth, she was still unwilling to work with people in looking toward the endgame. Only Kelley seemed genuinely willing to endure her any longer. If Abi-Maria was a little more desperate to stay in the game, she would have been willing to commit to a plan. Her solitary vote for Keith was a sign that she was a figurative island on an actual island.

THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST PIC EVER TO BE USED AS A TEAM IN A FTAR GAME.

Following Season Finale: Abi-Maria's question about subtle moves was intriguing considering that there were so many big moves that the subtle ones might have been overlooked. Tasha's response about reconnecting with Spencer, her ally from their previous season, was probably most relevant to who wound up in the final three. Spencer's response about shifting distrust to Joe was an empty answer, as Stephen and others were also doing that. A more accurate response would have been to simply say the same thing he had said in other responses -- his ability to create more personal relationships and shed the ultra-strategist perception he wore too outwardly during his previous season. Jeremy appeared to misunderstand the question, because finding hidden immunity idols is not a subtle move. At the time of finding them, they are huge game-changers, even if he does not reveal them until using them. Nonetheless, Abi-Maria, after Ciera, was probably the next most likely to vote Spencer as Sole Survivor, but perhaps his weak response to her question along with Jeremy's revelation about expecting a child turned Abi-Maria's perspective to Jeremy's favor.
