And I can really see myself in Shabby, that's why I can sort of understand her frustration, but if that was me, I would remain calm no matter how angry I was. My eye would be on that money and not on making friends or being genuine. I'd be faking it all the way, baby.

My intepretation (briefly)
Shabby reacted badly to being nominated, one of the issues was Ben started talking to her before she nominated, which she feels was him trying to influence her voting. Ben said that this was not the case, but it was one of the first times that she was staying in one place (in a hammock I think), he said that she is always on the move, whereas he is kinda slow to move and is in one place longer, and as such, found it hard to have a proper chat with her until then. He did say he wasn't going to patronise her by saying outright that he didnt vote for her.
The two kinda parted ways, Shabby, not really helping by getting a little bit more annoyed and Ben being fairly calm, both started talking to others about the situation. Though Shabby was more aggressive, whereas Ben was more inquisitive and not wanting to be seen to be causing trouble.
They kind of made up, when Ben then said, that he often didnt know when she was acting. (this was later explained by Ben as a poor choice of words, and meant that he didnt know when she was playing up for fun and being dramatic for a laugh, or actually being serious - not playing up for the cameras) , this of course went down like a pile of plopsy, and it kicked off again.
Neither time have either come across well, but Ben seems to be worried that his poor choice of words have offended her, Shabby doesnt seem to worry about what people think of Ben, being a bit more aggressive in her speech with her friends. Ben has tried to grasp the situation better by talking to other people about what has happened.
This has all meant a lot of needless talking, non of which has actually done much good.
It still all stems from the belief Shabby has that Ben was trying to influence her vote and voted for her.
We shall see tonight whether he did or not.
If he did, it could look very bad on him.
You may already know all of this, but hey ho if not, remember this is my view and to be honest, im leaning more towards ben on this one, so views may be biased (but I would hope not much if any, but obviously, they could be)
