I like Spencer more and more. I also like Sodoma more and more. I'm a little torn here. Let's say Spencer for now.

Sodoma.
It's the 20th Century weirdo that prevails, as Spencer takes seven votes to Sodoma's four. Both of them will stay alive for Tournament purposes -- although not "alive" in the ordinary sense of course -- with Sodoma heading over to test his luck in the Left Brackets.
