Don't worry she's not !

She's making out she's not sure so the public feel sympathy for her at the hands of Dex's "manipulating".

When really, SHE engineered the whole situation !!!! (by going last)

Let's break it down...

Charlie:

"The reason I get affected is because my emotions are involved because I'm obviously very close to you ?
So I am obviously scared of being the one who is sort of PLAYED or mugged or naive..."

So what do we have ?

- emotion (suprise suprise !)
- very close (least as gameplaying allies in the house ! Hidden code to Dex..)
- Charlie scared of being PLAYED (when she outwitted Dexter and effectively stitched him right up !!! )

"And I thought 'Oh my god imagine if he isn't who I think he is'"

Ha ha, yes !
Imagine who the public would blame and feel sympathy for ?
Especially as they're "very close" !

"To give you the benefit of the doubt and to hope I DO know you like I think I do."

Of course ! Poor old Charlie doesn't know him at all !
Hee hee...

Dex hits back with "Anyone could have chosen the lowest by accident".

Probably implying Charlie wanted to go last to win ! (if the public forget for 1 sec she took the highest !)

Charlie: "Yeah but it would have been ok if it was an accident...."

But of course, the public decide what's an accident !

"I don't know what your strategy is." - more classic Charlie denial tactics !

See how it works ?....
Rip into him (after the event) making it crystal clear as mud to all.
Then go back into unsure, confused naive mode at the hands of the evil perpetrator !

Classic tactics !

Anyway...
Why has she "given him the benefit of the doubt" ? (or claimed to !)

No point Charlie losing a useful ally in the house (even if he might not win anymore now the damage is done !)

God knows what drama she's got planned next but I can't wait !

Going after Sam (with the help of Dexter) is my ropy bet !

Loving BB and Charlie right now !
