Why did Tony volunteer to go into the sand?

0:00 Now this episode a lot of this episode revolved around the drama between Tony and Avery and I felt like the show tried to make this a thing where they said Tony was looking down on her for being a woman and wanting to make a strong decision and it was taking that angle quite a bit when the only thing Tony was thinking and like I understand it didn't work for him and it looked really bad

0:24 And he absolutely flopped it in the elimination that is not how I read it like I read it Tony came in from No Man's Land to play this game Avery did have friends in the game and she protected her friend which is her prerogative to do that and he was like I need to make friends I need to get people behind me so if I can show some loyalty maybe come back in this situation if I did go in there you know I've got now suddenly

0:48 Casey who's grateful I've got kylin potentially there and a lot of these new kids when I look at that you know when we look at statistics Derek isn't someone that you would say is in general have been a strong competitor
