He just acted like he dumped Danielle in front of everybody, so he wants to come up here and be like, "Look, Frank, you're in the house by yourself. She understood relationships in the house logically and strategically. He didn't win the Veto and there's no way he can get it to change because he's locked in the room." I'm sadly not any smarter still. If you run into him on the street, ask him about himself, not Dan Gheesling. It's good.
