Following Season Finale: Kimmi was absolutely correct to want to target Jeremy, because since the elimination of Joe, Jeremy was the overwhelming favorite to win Sole Survivor. She also had no idea how loyal he was to her, as it is very possible that if there were a final four of Kimmi, Jeremy, Spencer, and Tasha, Jeremy would have eliminated Spencer to leave her in the final three. Kimmi took action at the wrong time, as the numbers at best gave her a tie vote. Given all the craziness with multiple hidden immunity idols played and zero votes counting, and then tie-breaking procedures which would have immunized everyone but Keith if they did not unanimously vote Kimmi for elimination, Kimmi was sunk. In hindsight, her play would have been to band together with Keith, Kelley Wentworth, and Abi-Maria one vote earlier to go after Jeremy (maintaining most of the women's alliance that Tasha had formed one vote earlier), but based upon who went on a reward and who stayed behind along with the loyalty she wanted to keep toward Jeremy at that point, which was indeed reciprocated, she failed to seize moments that other's successfully seized at various points in the game and probably deserved this fate. Her feelings of heartbreak toward Jeremy during the final tribal council were misplaced, since she was the one who instigated the attempt to eliminate him, and Spencer and Tasha distrusted her more than Jeremy. She also was a bit out of line in describing Spencer's speech at the previous tribal council as bullying, as it was more so a persuasive and passionate argument toward Jeremy about understanding the voting dynamics of the jury and his potential role in it if he were to wind up there. Yes, Spencer could have dialed it down a bit, but he was in no way belittling Jeremy or anyone else. All around, Kimmi failed at critical moments this season.
