History Characters / SurvivorThailand

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Lampshaded, and the first time at that point that someone had actually commented on their name being spelled wrong during jury voting ("two Bs, two Bs, guys").

* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: Shii Ann is currently the first and the only player from Thailand to return for a [[Characters/SurvivorAllStars second season]]. Realistically, Shii Ann will also likely be the only person to have ever returned from this season.

** TheChick: Erin Collins, who tried to avoid drama at all cost and was close to Penny and Jake.

* TheAce
* [[TheBadGuyWins The Bad Guys Win]]
* GrayAndGrayMorality

* [[ShowyInvincibleHero Showy Invincible Tribe]]
* TeamSpirit

* AHouseDivided
* DividedWeFall
* DwindlingParty: It started with the fake merge, and it only got worse when only three members made it to the merge.
* [[FailureHero Failure Tribe]]: How they ended up.

%%* TeethClenchedTeamwork
* TooDumbToLive: They started fine, and clearly stronger than Chuay Gahn. Then they threw a challenge early on to get rid of an unpopular tribemate and never recovered.

* TheSociopath: Or at least that's how he was portrayed. There are hints of this throughout the season that are tricky to pick up on in a first viewing, but the point at which it really became noticeable was when it came time for him to turn on his former allies. He had Ted and Helen ousted without hesitation or remorse, and he brought Clay to the final two for strategic purposes more than anything. Their friendships meant ''nothing'' to him. It was all business for Brian.

* WorthyOpponent

* OutOfFocus: Almost invisible until episode six and his quarrel with Robb.

* OutOfFocus

* AccidentalMisnaming: In the episode after Shii Ann was voted out, the Chuay Gahn tribe are talking about her. Brian clearly didn't even care to remember her name as he called her (in the same sentence, no less), "Soo-yee" and "Sin-jo".

* BackstabBackfire: One of the most infamous in Survivor History.

** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Clay himself in the second to last episode. A full-length mirror appears at the Chuay Ghan camp after the tribe gets back from collecting shellfish, and Clay remarks with some surprise "I look... sixty."

* OnlySaneMan: While she was the only relatively sane person in her alliance, her husband who won the loved one's visit (he got to hang out with Chuay Ghan for twenty-four hours) was also one. He observes right away that Brian is the one who's really controlling the tribe, and he tries to convince Helen to listen to him and vote Brian out. She doesn't listen.

->'''Tribe:''' Chuay Ghan

* [[GossipyHens Gossipy Hen]]
* MaliciousSlander: See RashomonStyle. She made Ted out to be ''far'' worse than how he really seemed to be.
* RashomonStyle: Sort of. Ted allegedly made sexual advances towards Ghandia in the middle of the night when they were both snuggling in the cave. Ted claims that he was half asleep and not in his right mind, thinking he was back home with his wife, and the next morning he makes what seems to be an honest apology to her. Ghandia proceeds to tell the rest of Chuay Gahn that Ted was an unrepentant jerk who practically raped her.
* ScreamingWoman: After the tribe decides that they believed Ted's side of the story concerning the alleged sexual harassment, she has a fit and suddenly screams, causing Jan who was much further down the beach to ask [[RuleOfFunny "What was that?"]]

* TheBadGuyWins: Granted
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Most of his actual strategy was hidden from his fellow contestants.

%%* TheChessmaster
%%* EvilGenius
* EvilGloating: His famous "Mr. Freeze" confessional.

* [[ShowyInvincibleHero Showy Invincible Player]]: Didn't receive a single vote against him throughout the game and won the final three immunity challenges of the season, making him untouchable until the Final Tribal Council vote. Additionally, as Helen remarked when voting for him, there were tribe challenges in the earlier parts of the game that Chuay Ghan won largely because of Brian's efforts alone.

* TheSociopath: Or at least that's how he was portrayed. There are hints of this throughout the season that are difficult to pick up on unless you pay extra close attention, but the point at which it really became noticeable was when it came time for him to turn on his former allies. He had Ted and Helen ousted without hesitation or remorse, and he brought Clay to the final two for strategic purposes more than anything. Their friendships meant ''nothing'' to him. It was all business for Brian.

[[folder:4th/ Helen Glover]]

* AccidentalMisnaming: In the episode after Shii Ann was voted out, the Chuay Gahn tribe are talking about her. Brian clearly didn't even care to remember her name as he called her (in the same sentence, no less) "Soo-yee" and "Sin-jo".

* BoisterousBruiser

* DumbMuscle
** DumbassHasAPoint: The reason he took a skateboard to a beach was because his first two suggestions for luxury item had already been done. When he was informed of this, he sarcastically asked "What am i supposed to bring, a skateboard?". [[LiteralMinded The producers wound up giving him one for the trip]].

* MrFanservice

* SitcomArchNemesis: To Shii-Ann. He also hated [[UnknownRival Clay]] after Jeff Probst disqualified Robb for choking him in the aforementioned Attack Zone challenge.

* SitcomArchNemesis: To Robb

* TokenMinority: Shii Ann was the first Asian American to ever be cast on the show.

* NeverMyFault: After the infamous Attack Zone challenge, angry Robb screams: "We lost just by bunch of rules!" Of course, and because he's was choking Clay.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: When the rest of Sook Jai is distracted via goofing around near the shoreline, Robb slightly farther back in the ocean is screaming and then collapses, submerging into it. He got bit on the foot by a stingray, but due to Robb's [[CryingWolf loud nature]], no one noticed until they noticed on land that he was bleeding.
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: He had an epiphany about his behavior but was still voted out in the episode he had it.
* JerkJock

* SitcomArchNemesis: To Shii-Ann.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Lampshaded, and the first time at that point that someone had actually commented on their name being spelled wrong during jury voting ("two Bs, two Bs, guys").
