Actually, Nicole & Victor explained the backstory on their podcast. Apparently the conversation on the train between them & the Reillys was the first time that Rachel & Elissa had ever offered to help them in any way, because they never had any sort of relationship up to that point, whereas with Becca & Floyd, that team was genuinely close with Nicole & Victor, so that's where the skepticism came from. And it does make sense, because if a team you don't have any sort of closeness with tells you that a team you are close with is trying to target you, wouldn't you be suspicious of the ulterior motives too? Especially since we know that Rachel & Elissa have already gone after Team Fun, so it could very well be that their true motive was to get Victor & Nicole to do their dirty work so that they don't look bad to their new alliance. And of course, Rachel & Elissa changing stories halfway through didn't exactly give off a warm fuzzy feeling that they were being completely honest.

It's a well thought out bit of damage control.  :wine:

rachel hurtful to nicole with that line, and dont forget now theres 2 teams furious at rachel when they at mat

More like 3 teams, because Nicole mentioned that Chris & Bret weren't too thrilled with how Rachel kept on taking jabs at Nicole, because they saw that as kicking a team when they were down
