If Sarah gave it to her moments before Tribal not giving her a chance to read it that does present certain possibilities.

I just have a hard time believing Cirie would be doing all of this work beforehand not even being sure if she was going to have the advantage or without understanding it. That whole scene of trying to trick Tai and setting Tai up, and speaking with Michaela about how she was going to use the advantage and breaking down her plan made it seem like Cirie was certain of what was happening.

Would she really be doing all of this without even seeing the advantage or being sure what was going to happen going into Tribal?

The editing and narrative from my viewpoint seemed to focus a lot more on Cirie overplaying and planning than it did on Sarah. Wouldn't they include a confessional of Sarah explaining her plan or intention if that were the case as that would be vital to the narrative of that case playing out and giving her credit.

My take on it was that Cirie simply got in her own way, overplayed it a lot and perhaps didn't even take the time to fully understand the advantage and just assumed certain things about it. Maybe she glanced over it and didn't even check the "fine print" as it were.

Also, there's to consider Cirie wasn't attempting to go directly against Sarah she was overplaying to get Tai out and couldn't convince Sarah and so tried to take matters into her own hands for "the greater good" from her viewpoint in believing Tai to be the biggest threat and so what exactly and ultimately did Sarah's plan if it was that prove.

...but i guess there is a possibility it was Sarah's intentional and plan all along. If that were the case i find it quite surprising the editing didn't make that more clear though.

* That's called thinking outside the box. Sarah is genius. Instead of just using her huge advantage to make a big move, she uses the fine print to

xx * It seems like Sarah went over the note with Cirie, not mentioning the non-transferable part and then maybe did hand it over at the last minute.
