No current recognized decision right is demonstrated.

Reward Power1

Coercive Power1

No current credible consequence changes another player’s response.

Expert Power2

Other players had not repeatedly followed Jason’s advice or judgment.

Referent Power2

Some ties exist, but broad or durable protection is not established.

Informational Power1

Information use is rejected, exposed, or backfires.

Clearest Supporting Evidence

PowerEvidence and ResponseWhy It Mattered and Where It Stopped
Referent PowerJason formed Mama’s Angels with LaTrice and Rome and reassured Taylor.The ties preserved some voluntary trust. Broader distrust from Episode 4 still limited Referent Power to 2.
Informational PowerJason’s keep-Ashley pitch did not change Dee’s position.The failed response preserved Informational Power 1.

03

Relationships and Alliances

Most Significant Relationships

Jason strengthened with LaTrice, Rome, and Taylor through the new trio and reassurance.

Most Significant Alliances and Groups

Mama’s Angels formed as a LaTrice–Rome–Jason trio. Court Jesters remained compromised.

04

Power Shifts

Jason’s Total Power Score Holds at 8 Because New Ties Do Not Yet Overcome Broader Distrust and Failed Persuasion

Total Power Score: 8 → 8

Why: Jason’s keep-Ashley pitch to Dee failed, but he joined LaTrice and Rome in Mama’s Angels and reassured Taylor. His score held at 8. After Ashley’s exit, he ranked sixteenth among the sixteen active players.

What Changed: No individual power rating changed; Total Power Score remained 8.

What Stayed the Same: Legitimate Power 1, Reward Power 1, Coercive Power 1, Expert Power 2, Referent Power 2, and Informational Power 1.

Why It Matters: Jason still had people willing to work with him, but his attempts to shape the vote failed and broader trust remained weak. His rank fell because Ashley left the active field and other profiles changed, not because his score declined.

05

Position Analysis

Mama’s Angels Preserves Some Ties, but Jason Remains Last Among Active Players

Jason still had people willing to work with him, but his attempts to shape the vote failed and broader trust remained weak. His rank fell because Ashley left the active field and other profiles changed, not because his score declined.

Bottom Line: Jason retained limited ties (Referent 2), while his information attempts remained rejected or ineffective (Informational 1). The next test is whether Mama’s Angels acts together when a new target is named.

06

Performance, Structure, and Chance

Jason’s premiere Safety Lock expired after the eviction. Losing safety did not automatically lower his six-power score.

The Week 1 cycle ended with no active HOH, nominees, or Safety Locks. Round 1 Time Capsule remained active with no known recipient or result.

07

Best Move Right Now

There is not enough evidence yet to name a supported best move.

08

What the Rating Means

The current score shows the mix of influence Jason could still use after the first eviction cycle. Referent Power and Informational Power supplied the clearest evidence, while the stated limits identify what had not yet been delivered or tested.

09

Public Opinion

No completed public-opinion result is available at this Evidence Cutoff.

Official Audience Action: The Time Capsule twist had been announced, but no recipient or result was known. It is recorded separately from fan ranking.

10

What to Watch For Next

Does Mama’s Angels protect Jason in the next cycle?

Why It Matters: Delivered protection would show whether the new trio can repair his wider trust problem.
