By the way, I think there's two possible explanations for Scott's strategy.

1. He wants to be viewed as a non-threat to the Mutant Maggots when he gets merge, so they'll forget about him. This is actually similar to the move in the book, Catching Fire where Johanna acted weak so no one would mess with her.

2. He wants to be the last one on his team so the he can win challenges on his own at merge, and thus, the Mutant Maggots have to betray each other, causing alliances between themselves. If this continued to happen, they wouldn't want to vote him off.

Just my theory on it.
