I will remember Deana for confronting Conor and Luke S; I think it is her assertiveness that makes her stand out. It should be remembered that she is still unaware of what Conor said but I wonder how surprised she'll be, given how nasty he was to her through the series. I'm amazed that you feel she's not getting votes ‘on her own merit’; the status of the 'outsiders' has been defined by being underdogs and voters love an underdog. The majority ‘insiders’ were vile generally, but especially to the ‘insiders’, so there has been a clear divide between the good guys and the bad guys.
