Tell me your reaction as you saw your name coming up?
I knew I was done for, and you see me put my head in my hands.
I just knew it was over and I was just devastated.

I am still upset about it.
You were crying through getting your torch snuffed and crying while walking off.
When did you stop crying?Haveyou stopped crying?
Bianca Roses on ‘Survivor 48’.CBS
I was just so upset.
Also, my nose starts gushing blood at one point.
I just went out in a hot mess.

So the crying really didn’t stop because once I got to Ponderosa and I saw Thomas immediate tears.
It was a while of crying.

So were you sticking Kleenex up your nose or what?

I remember one of our producers was like, Can we get this girl a tissue?
And they didn’t have anything.
So they handed me a sunglass cleaner one of the wipes for your sunglasses.

I was like, I’ll take anything right now.
And you don’t know what went down really, right?
At Ponderosa, you’re able to only assume and guess and chat with each other about whatmight’vehappened.

But I don’t actually know who voted for me.
I had a feeling.
But seeing Thomas he just immediately welcomed me.

How did your mother take it?
My mom is still here right now.
She was with me last night.

Obviously, she was crying.
Everyone, they’re so proud of me.
I’m proud of myself.
You try your best.
I played so hard.
Tell me about the decision to tell Cedrek about not having a vote?
You have to build trust and work with people to make it make it farther in this game.
And it’s so easy to say don’t trust anyone, but you have to.
It’s a delicate balance of survive the night and play the long-term game.
And I told him.
My number one is gone.
Thomas is nowhere to be found.
I was just trying to set myself up with a little bit of footing for the merge.
I knew we’re on the brink of it, and it didn’t work out.
And it’s so easy to sit on the couch and be like, Why would you tell him?
And had it worked out, it would’ve been amazing.
I would’ve built trust.
I would’ve had a new number one going into the merge.
It would’ve been fantastic.
How much has that decision haunted you over the past nine months?
Have you been waking up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night thinking about that decision?
Yeah, it’s called the 3 a.m.Survivorpanic.
Well, I’m not going to vote you out, Bianca.
Speaking of which, I don’t understand the vote.
What do you know in terms of what happened?
Or is he just not in on the plan?
What do you know about what happened?
Honestly, Dalton, make it make sense.
Make it make sense!
I don’t know.
And I watched Cedrek like a hawk.
I was that crazy eyed, panickedSurvivorplayer, and I made sure he didn’t speak to anyone.
Make it make sense!
What would you have done if you had your vote?
Which side would you have gone with?
I was like, Oh, you’re in the best spot.
Had I had a vote!
I could have gone either way.
So we just wanted to dwindle those Civa numbers.
So my brain was like, definitely work with Cedrek and Sai.
I don’t know what’s going on there.
So it could have gone either way.
Why did you end up being the one to go from Lagi?
Yeah, so we had so many discussions.
The tribe actually decided that Thomas and I were going to be the journey-goers.
That was a decision that was made.
And it’s hard to fight that, you don’t want to cause friction.
You don’t want to be the one that’s like, Actually no,you’regoing.
So that was kind of decided early on.
I did not want to go on this journey.
I say it, and they show it: Journeys end in demise.
So no, I didn’t want to go.
And I signed up for this, right?
I signed up for curveballs at any moment.
But yeah, I didn’t decide to go on that.
That was a tribe decision.
I would’ve never risked my vote ever.
Unless I had been able to see a puzzle, because I was crushing puzzles.
If it was something I felt really confident in… but no.
Because I’m pretty sure 47 and 48 are the first seasons where you didn’t have a choice.
You had to risk your vote.
And we obviously hadn’t seen 47.
Ill ask you the same questionI asked Thomas.
If there had been no tribe swap and Lagi had gone to Tribal Council, what would have happened?
They really didn’t show this, but the four of us were pretty closely aligned.
So I would’ve just had to work with them and they would’ve never voted out Eva ever.
So it would’ve had to have been Star.
She’s so strong.
And I’m over here the theater kid.
So I knew that was trouble.

What was it like being at that immunity challenge with Eva and Joe and that moment together?
I think viewers can relate.
It’s like unlike anything we’ve ever seen onSurvivor.
You never know their full story.
And I will say too, on top of the emotions of it all, that impacts the game.
Joe and Eva have revealed to everyone this connection now.
So I’m thinking about it in so many different ways.
Also, I told Cedrek, Sai is gunning for you.
I had a very good case for myself as to why I told Cedrek.
Oh, I also was hunting for that idol on Civa Beach.
And I was like, Kamilla or Kyle had an idol.
There’s no shot they didn’t.
So I went back to Civa and I was like, That idol’s up for grabs.
Let’s go, baby.
And I looked for it for a long time, but obviously I didn’t find it.
