I'm sure we're all in for some drama, and the fact that some of the unfortunate game show contestants won't live to see the end of it is very likely. But honestly, I'm more interested in another thing - which of her sisters Alessandra wants to kill and how that will turn out for everyone involved in Gambit, including Kane and Olivia. Right now, I'd hate to see what Alessandra has in mind come to fruition, even if I imagine her diabolical plan is to eliminate Juliette.
Bro I literally copied the whole thing in one of my posts explaining the ranks. Can't believe you missed itSomething got me thinking..... Yeah, it is obvious to everyone that there is no explicit sexual content of Olivia + Kane in the maledom route yet, yes, Kane Dom will not see much else that is in the pure sub routes, but Kane Dom can already dominate a little sex and fuck the brains of one of the most beautiful sisters, Alessandra. I think it's worth it, ha-ha!

But this is just a lyric and an amusing observation, which in any case would not have prompted me to switch to Sub path, because, as we know, to each his own.
Okay, jokes and funny observations aside. I wanted to write about something a little different. To my shame, over the last few updates I've gotten too spoiled by the handy Sancho Mod and almost completely stopped looking at the official walkthrough, and if I did, it was only superficially to learn this or that thing on the spot. And, as it turned out, in vain. When taking a closer look at the ep7 walkthrough, I came across some interesting information about ranks and their influence on the events of the 8th and subsequent episodes.
Yes, a lot of things have already been discussed here, but one thing is our guesses and assumptions, and another is an official explanation from the developer. And if anyone, like me, missed this part, I'll just leave it here.

So, guys and gals who don't play Star...., here's some food for thought while there's still a little time before ep8 comes out, in which we could use this knowledge.
Well the only save I have is my my morally flexible, selfish play-through, so I'll be looking to be playing a balancing act game to get the most benefits.
Id imagine she doesnt care who died between juliette and dominique she's all about the chaos at this point.
It's just not very clear how exactly this very chaos is going to help her achieve her ultimate goal. I haven't played the secret sub route, but in the dom route, Alessandra doesn't look like a very capable sister on whom the entire Karlsson company depends heavily, and with the possible death of any of her sisters, the entire company will be weakened and the DeKocks will become stronger on the contrary. We (or I) probably still know too little about her true ability to carry out management, but so far Alessa seems the weakest of the sisters (imho).
I was originally leaning towards going through both parts at once too, but the issue is that we still don't know how long we have to wait for the second part to come out. So while that uncertainty persists, I'm leaning towards playing it in stages.Dammit, my resolve to ignore part 1 & play the whole ep.8 together is wavering
I fear that you've fallen into the same trap that alexander did. She just plays dumb but is alot smarter than she lets on. Without knowing her motive and taking her at her word, I believe her main goal is testing Kane and seeing what hes truly capable of. Dom and juliette want to run the company, veronica wants to be a scientist, but I believe that alessandra wishes to see if Kane truly is worthy of running the company and shes more than willing to play the trophy wife. She can run it if she has but I believe testing is her true goal and she wants the sisters out of the way to see what kane is truly capable of
I did not know those titbits about her life. Not surprise though, human mind is a complex thing. Plus, there is a difference between a BDSM relationship between adults which is suppose to be a consensual agreement and created with respect and boundaries and what one can see or read about in most movies, games. Etc. Which is probably why her game is so good.Thanks for the clarification. On the "self-proclaimed" sadist thing, if memory serves, Tess has admitted in this thread that she is not only a sadist (within the confines of her bedroom), but also a big romantic.
As your fellow K9 ranker I give you a 100% guarantee that we will not be downgraded, unless of course we do something unimaginable and completely obvious stupid). The only thing I can see that might slow our progress somewhat is the probably very tough decisions in the upcoming game show that we'll have to make, which could theoretically partially ruin the relationship with Good Olivia and therefore slow GoodDom K9's progress towards the K10 rank.
But I hope that there are ways to keep Kane and Olivia's "shared" moral compass intact without screwing up the game show. In fact, who really should be worried is the guys who are fundamentally playing ranked K1 and naively hoping to survive and make it to the finals.
I agree that Alessandra is smarter than she appears, it's just that she remains hardly the most mysterious of the sisters, whose underlying motives (other than the vague "power struggle") are little understood by anyone. These were musings out loud, and I was interested to hear your personal opinion as to her true intentions. Thank you for sharing it. As for Veronica, she is already a scientist, and a brilliant one at that, so that goal has long been achieved. As I see it, Veronica's main goal at this point, aside from fulfilling Gambit's conditions and her other duties (R&D, etc.) is to revive life on the mainland, because if she can't do it, no one can.
Maybe because Karlsson's Gambit story is only a small part of a larger story that can't be told in a single game. Wrote about this earlier.
About Alessandra´s secret plan for kill one of her sisters i think Kane could evitate it if we are in the correct path and if we want. I suposse in some point in the story some sisters die, i mean that´s the type of things happens in tv series and all of that stuff, but i don´t think Tess obligate us to see an important character die if we don´t want.
) to take advantage of it for ourselves. Great if there are selfish choices involving climbing in power, with no consideration for good or evil or any other character.
My apologies I came off as arrogant in my previous statement, that wasnt my intention.
), but at least I'm hoping for an ending where we can fight tyranny with the rebellion, even if it is doomed to fail, and us to be killed, hopefully fighting 
From my point of view, I definitely don't think this game will have a happy ending. Mc will probably have to sacrifice himself at some point.Or he will be killed, as you say.I'm fairly sure Tess won't allow us to destroy her femdom dystopia (Maybe utopia for her?
