I mean. I think I do? I'm only speculating, however he clearly did put up 2 of the 3 biggest threats in the game. He then couldn't put the 3rd up as she won PoV
So he has 4 people to choose from. Nathan and Nick have to date been pretty ineffectual - at least publicly. Julian doesn't seem to be liked, so wouldn't be competition at the end. And everyone likes Lauren. Which suggests that whilst he might have rather one of the others left, of the 4 he could choose from, he felt it was the best move for his game.
Of course he could just be a pathological idiot, but I didn't question it personally.
