“We may have chosen the wrong target by eliminating Gilles…”

episode of Koh-Lanta exhilarating this Tuesday, May 20 on TF1! Julie and Tania hatch a whole scheme to direct the boys’ votes towards Tania, who has had an immunity necklace since her return to the camp, victorious in the duel against Esteban. A task not so obvious since the survivors of the alliance of the “Fantastic 4” now seem to prefer to oust Julie, whom they consider more formidable during the orientation race and the test of the posts to follow. Tania having lost the immunity test, she already finds herself with a vote against her on the council and the girls have to play it smart so as not to arouse suspicion and that the boys split their four votes (Quentin again got the vote black of Laura, who blamed herself for having given it to him, and therefore a double voice). As they succeeded in their masterstroke thanks to the precious immunity necklace exhibited in front of Nicolas, the girls had plenty of time to choose the eliminated one of their choice… And that’s Quentin who paid the price for this turnaround: the strategist of the season has been the victim of the biggest manipulation since the start of the game!

Julie Debever (Koh-Lanta 2023) : “In archery, II do not yet take the measure of the tooth that Quentin has against me“

But then why not have tried to oust the young man, earlier in the game, perhaps in place of Gilles, less strategist? Julie explains:When Quentin breaks my arrow (in episode 11 broadcast on May 2, editor’s note), I tell myself that I am also the last without children: it is an excuse that has been put forward a lot. SO I do not yet take the measure of the tooth that Quentin has against me. Considering the affinities towards the people who remained, it seemed quite logical even if he could have chosen Esteban in my place… When we watch the episode, we say to ourselves that we had perhaps chosen the wrong target by eliminating Gilles. But it was not at all premeditated and it happened very stupidly… We started talking in the water with the girls and I swung that Gilles had promised me comfort and that I was super disappointed. One thing leading to another, I realized that he had made a lot of promises and the choice was made there. We didn’t know who to choose at first, we just knew we were going to line up for counter the big male alliance. It fell on Gilles, and he took it very badly… I was very surprised to find that even if he was very nice, with his heart on his sleeve, we no longer knew if we could trust him and with whom he was going to move forward. Strategically, it was super complicated for the future… We thought it was the most logical choice. And it’s true that Quentin got away with it again at that time!”

Julie (Koh-Lanta, the Sacred Fire) about Quentin: “It’s very clever to hide like this in order to recover the black votes…”

The 26-year-old carpenter, who dreamed of building his house with his partner thanks to the 100,000 euros in earnings, had been able, until then, to direct the votes without ever being worried. Better still, he had succeeded in obtaining the black votes of the eliminated ones who believed in his good faith! But this Tuesday, May 30, the masks fell and Julie says: “I became aware too late of the role that Quentin played ; with the elimination of Laura. Quentin votes against Tania (in episode 14 broadcast on May 23, editor’s note), after what she did for him (she offers him the mail of his relatives, editor’s note), I found it weird… But it’s very clever to hide like this in order to recover the black votes. At the time of the broadcast, things went less well; it is seen as a Trafalgar stunt. This male alliance was very tight-knit. Even if I had a very good relationship with Nicolas, he didn’t tell me everything! He was also protecting his male alliance, he couldn’t unpack everything to me.”

Julie, TF1 game finalist: “I had it a little bad…”

The professional footballer even redid the match with Laura, eliminated last week and does not hide her remorse for not having countered the male alliance sooner: “We spoke on the phone with Laura, and we said to ourselves that we had been really stupid not to react when we were 3 girls and 3 boys… We couldn’t take a step back to forget to fight back and think strategically. We acted as if we wanted to go as far as possible but didn’t deserve the final! It’s frustrating for all the viewers but it is also for us seeing the broadcast”. By choosing Quentin as a target, Tania, who explained to us that he had spoken to her very badly at the start of the adventure, also proves that she is no longer taken in by the candidate even if she had chosen to offer him her mail. last week…

Julie (Koh-Lanta) : “If Quentin had had immunity, we would have been ousted...”

An action that annoyed Julie a lot: “I was very surprised when Tania returned to the camp (in episode 14 broadcast on May 23, Editor’s note)... Certainly, she had a little grudge against me but I was not negative towards her, I was frank and sincere… I find it a little weird that she forgets everything and wipes the slate clean to potentially move forward with Quentin. Maybe it was strategically smart but I got it kinda bad cause it cost me (to vote against it, Editor’s note). While it didn’t cost Quentin to vote against her ! And I’m taking a bit of a flurry of criticism when clearly it’s been heartbreaking… I’ve taken a hit in the back of the head.” However, the sportswoman did not appreciate that Quentin is hounding Tania on the next board. One more argument to eliminate the candidate this week…”I said to myself : ‘Bullshit, Tania gives the mail to Quentin, she restores his confidence after all he has done and he votes against her again!’ It’s hard.”

But then who would the girls have chosen to eliminate if Quentin had won immunity instead of Frédéric? Julie is categorical: “What is certain is that I would not have voted against Nicolas. We would have ousted a boy so Frédéric!“… Now, no more eliminations! The candidates making up the final square (Julie, Tania, Frédéric and Nicolas) will have to compete during the orienteering race next week to stay in the game.
