Like honestly, let's walk this through:
Palmer is sk. Night 1 he choses not to take his action because ??? Like night 1 is the safest time to act because you have the lowest chance of getting caught. But whatever. N1 mafia and LoC kill LoC and swamped respectively. Night 2 Palmer finally decides to kill, he choses TB. Mafia either don't kill, get rb'd, also chose TB, or doctor got lucky.
Palmer as a 3P isn't a bad detain choice, I just don't think he's sk and thus we gain nothing from flipping him. He's an easy choice for mafia to latch their votes onto.
