I was thinking......(yeah, i know)......Throughout the show, Tim has been the entertainer, the stirrer, someone who people would want to keep watching.  I have noticed now that he seems to be showing a softer, kinder side.  Was that his plan all along?  To keep him in earlier on and now seeing his good side would give him even a better chance to win?  Or was him showing emotions unintentional?  Its probably all part of the plan.
