Do you mean SECOND earliest successful idol play?
Nope. The earliest successful idol play to negate the majority of votes. Tom’s only negated a tie vote. 🙂
It’s bit confusing because you talk about it being the EARLIEST, yet the other idol plays you compare it to are based on number of votes being eliminated, not what episode they happened in.
Are there other idol plays that canceled a majority of the votes that happened in later episodes within their season?
Did the two other votes you compared this one to also happen on episode 4?
Tom’s also happened in episode 4 (negated a tied vote), Kristina’s happened in episode 2 (negated a minority vote)
“Lucy is the 7th person not to get a confessional until her boot episode.” Do first boots count?
