[QUOTE]Owen was no threat to Alejandro. Owen did nothing to intice, antagonize, or to be a challenge to him at all. Not much was really done with Duncan, other than working with him to bother Courtney, and he was easily eliminated because he was an outlier to everyone. Alejandro never had someone who directly went against him throughout the season like Heather did in Island (Gwen and Leshawna). Noah could have been that, but they wanted Duncan and Owen to make it far AGAIN.[/QUOTE]

Owen didn't need to intice or antagonize Alejandro. He was recognized as a threat because Alejandro PASSIONATELY DETESTED him (<3) but was angered because he knew Owen was really popular and could do nothing on his team to stop him. And evidence of this is that he did try. He lied to Owen that the other contestants didn't care about his safety in the Amazon and that he's his only friend but that plan didn't work. So Alejandro instead had to do an awkward middle ground with Owen which is why that "complisult" joke exists.

Plenty was done with Duncan. For five straight episodes him and Alejandro constantly tried figuring out what the other's next move would be and it was a hassling task for both of them that ultimately is a unique plotline. Them both trying to ally with Owen but also pretend to get on with each other was more stuff done.

Whether or not someone thinks Noah and Tyler should've outlasted Duncan and Owen is irregardless to the fact that objectively lots of things were done with Duncan and Owen.

And in answer to someone being against Alejandro throughout the season, he had Heather watching him like a hawk almost every episode. That's worth more than in TDI when Heather had more toned down watchers of her with Gwen and Leshawna.
