and here I thought Ally Beardsley couldn't top other seasons in terms of insanity.... but then they hit me with the good ol' "I ate my husband after eight months of being trapped underground, and Right after I spent a month of finishing him we were set free. He also begged not to be eaten. And! Turns out!! I was the only one who ate someone?? Insane! So I turned his metal scraps from his metal plating into a cage and put it on my head because there's No Possible Way someone's whole foot can fit through it. I can never eat another person ever again!"
