* After Season 12 aired, Krystal was [[http://www.cbc.ca/player/play/833006147645 interviewed]] on an Edmonton AM radio show, and she not only [[HeelRealization admitted that she was a terrible and reckless driver on the show]], but also revealed that she had been getting help for her mental illness, and "would swear on my life that I have not touched my phone since October in a car". In a total 180 from her attitude on the show, she said she was ''grateful'' for the education she received on the show, tearfully apologized to all of Edmonton for her reckless driving, and explicitly told anyone who was on their phone while driving to get off their phone. For being one of the show's most infamous [[TheScrappy Scrappies]], she has certainly come a long way.
