“No, nothing real happened, I’ll be honest with you,“The Challengealum tells EW.
“It was fun.

I loved her because she’s a cornball.
I would say there was a sense of sincerity, for sure.
But it was also playing a game, you know?”

I mean, what would I do, move to Atlanta?”
He smiles as he says, “I can’t do that.”
Since CT voted for MJ and MJ voted for Trishelle, it was a three-way tie.

Looking back on that pivotal moment, CT says he wasn’t really hurt by Trishelle’s almost betrayal.
“She trusts me, she trusts me not.
“Yeah, we keep in touch all the time,” he says.
“She’s a great friend.
But her and her husband have been very welcoming, so yeah, we talk all the time.”
“But there were a lot of different suspicions going around.
Sandra and MJ were really close.
You’re in that group with the private meetings!'”
But it was the same thing that happened there.
I’m not taking any more chances.
I’ve come this far.”
“But we didn’t have the opportunity to do that.
I was like, ‘Aw, that’s a bummer!’
It’s easy from the outside looking in to be like, ‘How could you not see it?’
I don’t see because I don’t have all the answers.
I don’t see people up in the turret.
I don’t see people’s names with Traitor or Faithful underneath it.
And it’s a game.”
“It’s a really good [game],” he says.
“I have to say, it takes working smarter not harder to a new level in this game.
I really enjoyed it because it was more of a political game.
I did appreciate this game because … there was a lot more deeper strategy as time evolved.
It went from everyone fighting to get a shield to whoever gets it, don’t tell anybody.
And then planting the seeds, Faithfuls are playing Traitor games, and Traitors are playing Faithful games.
And then every time somebody got banished or murdered, it changed the dynamic of the game.”
“Do we really have to vote?
Do we really have to banish this person because they drank too much coffee right now?
Is that the best we’ve got?
Alan, ‘You’re out of time, time to vote!’
And it’s like, ‘Ah, what do I do?!'”
CT smiles as he remembers how chaotic it was all the way up to the final moments.
What am I supposed to do?
I got paranoid.”
“Look at me, look at my hair!”
“I’m still stressed about it!”
