Survivor: Kaoh Rong castoff Debbie Wanner has clarified the rules of the game and what will happen now that Kyle Jason gave Tai Trang his idol, leaving Tai with two idols.

As shown on Wednesday night's Survivor episode, Tai had one hidden Immunity Idol in his pocket at Tribal Council, and then in a showy and arrogant manner, Jason gave his own idol to Tai.

The two guys, along with Scot Pollard, appeared to be making the statement that they weren't going anywhere since two idols could be combined to make a "Super Idol," saving one castaway from elimination after the votes are read.

During an exclusive interview with Reality TV World on Thursday, Debbie, a former Brains tribe member, confirmed whether Survivor's rules now consider Tai to have ownership of Jason's idol even if he decides to flip on the Brawn guys.

"You know what? You're very smart. You're the only one that brought that up! Good for you," Debbie gushed to Reality TV World, seemingly thrilled about the idea being brought up.

"Yeah! It's [Tai's] for good now, and wouldn't it be beautiful if he refused to give it back?"

After letting out somewhat of a sinister laugh, Debbie continued, "Very, very good of you, young lady, to pick up on that! Yes. 'I give this [idol] to you,' and, 'I accept it.' Yeah."

Just last week, Nick Maiorano revealed Tai voted for Jason because he was becoming buddy-buddy with Aubry Bracco. And based on previews for next week, there's potential for Tai to flip on Scot and Jason and join the girls' alliance, which also includes Joseph "Joe" Del Campo.

When asked whether she noticed Aubry and Tai getting close, Debbie insisted, "I did." 

"And I had a minor, a smaller relationship with Tai than Aubry did -- but certainly the three of us, actually, had, I would say, something going on," explained the 49-year-old chemist from Reading, PA.

"It was largely because I have two turtles living in my house and Tai loves turtles. So we had previous conversations."

Debbie admitted that Tai was "just unpredictable" in the game.

"That's what makes him so dangerous," Debbie pointed out. "Add in the unpredictability, I don't even think Tai knew he was voting for Jason to this day why he did it."

Debbie acknowledged she was well aware of the fact Tai would be tough to beat in the end.

"Obviously a physical threat, unpredictability -- you don't know if he's going with the guys or the girls," she said. "And I've always seen Tai as the outstanding character of our season."
