Tribes

     Lopevi 
Color/ namesake: red/ Lopevi island
Members (start): Brady Finta, Brook Geraghty, Bubba Sampson, Chad Crittenden, Chris Daugherty, John Kenney, J.P. Palyok, Rory Freeman, Sarge Masters
Members (swap): Chad Crittenden, Chris Daugherty, John Kenney, Julie Berry, Sarge Masters, Twila Tanner

The men's tribe.


  • A House Divided: From the very first episode they were strictly divided into the "Fit Four" (mostly younger players) and the "Fat Five" (a counter-alliance mostly of older players). The more numerous Fat Five obviously outlasted the Fit Four.
  • Dwindling Party: Entered the merge with fewer numbers and had already lost many early immunities. Besides Chris, all of them were gone by the final 7.
  • Law of Chromatic Superiority: After the swap, they won most of the challenges and produced both the winner and the runner up.
  • Location Theme Naming: Named after a volcanic island in Vanuatu.

     Yasur 
Color/ namesake: yellow/ Mount Yasur
Members (start): Ami Cusack, Dolly Neely, Eliza Orlins, Julie Berry, Leann Slaby, Lisa Keiffer, Mia Galeotalanza, Scout Cloud Lee, Twila Tanner
Members (swap): Ami Cusack, Bubba Sampson, Eliza Orlins, Leann Slaby, Lisa Keiffer, Rory Freeman, Scout Cloud Lee

The women's tribe.


  • A House Divided: But not as neatly as Lopevi's case.
  • Amazon Brigade: The original line-up and still pretty much this after the swap.
  • Divided We Fall: When the merge hit, everything was set in place for them to dominate the rest of the game, and they proceeded to pagong the Lopevi tribe until there was one member left. However, underlying tensions ultimately broke them apart. Twila, Scout, and Eliza teamed up with Chris to eliminate Ami's Yasur Alliance, leaving the door open for him to win the remaining immunity challenges of the season and ultimately take the title of Sole Survivor for himself.
  • Location Theme Naming

     Alinta 
Color/ namesake: orange/ unspecified languagenote  for "people of fire"
Members: Ami Cusack, Chad Crittenden, Chris Daugherty, Eliza Orlins, Julie Berry, Leann Slaby, Rory Freeman, Sarge Masters, Scout Cloud Lee, Twila Tanner

The merged tribe.


Finalists

    1st. Chris(topher) Daugherty 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_chris_daugherty.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 33/ South Vienna, Ohio/ highway repairer
Tribe: Lopevi -> Alinta

  • Anti-Hero: Particularly for guys.
  • Badass Boast: This line in the penultimate episode showed us just how much control he had in the game:
    I don't trust Scout, I don't trust Twila, I don't trust Eliza, I don't trust Julie. And they don't trust each other. And the most screwed-up thing about it is I think they all trust me.
  • Best Served Cold: His elimination of Julie. She betrayed the men's alliance and caused the elimination of Rory, Sarge and Chad. In revenge Chris lied to her the whole game, making promises and reassuring her just hours before her elimination even when it would have no benefit for his own game, just to engineer the most potent blindside possible.
  • The Chessmaster: Was the brains of the older alliance at Lopevi, and later managed to maneuver himself to win the game despite being outnumbered 6-1.
  • Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Particularly to Julie and Eliza.
  • Dark Horse Victory: The only guy on a tribe full of straw misandrists manages to turn the game around, manipulate all the women not only into allowing him into the Final Four, but giving him the money when the jury was five women to two men.
  • Defeating the Undefeatable: Defeated a six-way female alliance.
  • Determinator: And Elimination Houdini.
  • Earn Your Happy Ending: Called "one of the most unlikely winners ever" by Jeff Probst. It's hardly an understatement:
    • He lost the Lopevis the first immunity challenge and narrowly escaped being the first boot. He only survived because the Fit Four alliance made it too obvious the rest of the tribe was next. He's still the only winner with votes against him at the season's first tribal council.
    • Lopevi went on to lose more challenges and Chris had the Fat Five alliance weakened by the swap. Lopevi won more challenges and Chris became allies with Julie and Twila, but...
    • ...they were loyal to Ami first, and wasted no time taking out his allies. Lopevi as a whole entered the merge with fewer numbers, by the time only Chris remained, he had to turn on them to stay in the game. He had to be especially careful to orchestrate in-group conflicts toward the end of his run, and managed to narrowly talk his way out of elimination several times.
    • Lastly, Vanuatu's final jury was full of people he either betrayed or was never aligned with to start. And keep in mind that jury had less of his allies than the merge.
  • Fat Bastard: But, as noted elsewhere, he's really more of an anti-hero than a villain.
  • Foreshadowing: This confessional at the middle of the season foreshadows just how he ends up winning the game:
    You question a woman's character... you question a woman's ability, she'll snap your neck! ...You open your heart, show a woman you're vulnerable, then they start thinkin' with their heart.. That's when they open up that back door.
    • Zig-zagged in the premiere episode, where he says that men are much more likely to splinter and easier to manipulate than women are. While it turns out to be correct when the tribes merge and the women band together to eliminate the men, ultimately personality conflicts cause the women's alliance to implode.
  • Guile Anti-Hero: Decently strong in challenges but his best weapon was definitely his cunning.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He is a decent person but has a habit of lying as established at the reunion.
  • Large Ham: In his confessionals
  • Law of Chromatic Superiority: Wore a red sleeveless shirt and a red cap. He stayed on Lopevi for its entire existence and won against various Yasur members.
  • The Man Behind the Man: On Lopevi, Sarge was the unofficial leader of the tribe and in challenges, but it was Chris who was actually calling the shots.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Helped push the women’s alliance into cannibalizing itself by exploiting his friendships with Twila and Julie.
  • Took a Level in Badass: Was the only member of the men's tribe unable to cross the balance beam at the very first immunity challenge, making him the obvious person to eliminate. Ends up winning the game, sprinkling a few immunity victories along the way. Probst lampshades this later on.
  • The One Guy / Last of His Kind: The last man left in the game.
  • Playing Both Sides: At the final 5
  • Professional Butt-Kisser: Takes it up to eleven during the jury questioning. Scout called him a "bullshit artist" for a reason.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Does he ever.
    Chris: I'm gonna burn every one of them. Just let 'em open the door. This [vote] is for you, Sarge, not against you.
  • Sleeves Are for Wimps: This was enforced. He was force by the production crew to wear his red sleeveless shirt.
  • The Smart Guy: His main asset and what carries him to victory. Right from the first immunity challenge it’s shown he’s not very physically capable, losing the challenge for his entire team. He invokes this trope afterwards, saying he’s not overly worried since smarts are more important than brawn.
  • Sole Survivor: Not just of the game, but of the Lopevi tribe at final 6.
  • The Strategist: Claimed to be one in the very first episode, but we didn't get to really see him in action until his back was to the wall.
  • Underdogs Never Lose: Loses the first immunity challenge for Lopevi, a seemingly inauspicious start, but bounces back quickly and is in a power position all pre-merge. Later, he’s down 5-1 at the final six, but wins the game.

    2nd. Twila Tanner 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_twila_tanner.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 41/ Marshall, Missouri/ highway repairer
Tribe: Yasur -> Lopevi -> Alinta

  • Alliterative Name
  • Break the Haughty: A very abrasive person throughout the entirety of the season, she entered the final tribal council mostly unrepentant for her words and actions, even telling Eliza that she sucked (a guaranteed way to not get a vote). At the end, she's reduced to tears having realized she hurt so many people.
  • Brutal Honesty: In general, but especially at Final Tribal Council. It still earned her votes, as she didn't have BS up to her ears.
  • Cool Old Lady: A hardworking tomboy who holds her own with people half her age.
  • Distaff Counterpart: To Chris. They're both boisterous blue collar workers from the Midwest who struggle to relate to their younger tribemates. They even work in the same field.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Her son James.
  • Fiery Red Head: Her temper is even more red than her head.
  • Foil: To Chris, appropriate for the two finalists. Chris is incredibly great at deception and manipulation, fighting from the bottom to reach the top. Twila has always been in the majority alliance, but she lacks any sort of tact
  • Grumpy Old Woman
  • I'm Not Here to Make Friends: She says this word for word in the premiere episode.
  • Lad-ette: Outright says at her second tribal council that she has a much easier time getting along with men as opposed to women, and it shows in the game immediately at the first reward challenge.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: With Scout. She is the Red Oni.
  • Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: Though Eliza was disliked by most of the cast, She and Twila had an especially heated relationship. In the beginning of the season, she'd developed one with Mia, but her early boot put a close to it quickly.
  • Tragic Mistake: Swearing on her son's life. Since Leann's boot, this has come back to haunt her so many times afterwards with most of the jury questioning her character because of it. She regrets having ever said it, but she can't undo it.

Jury Members

    3rd. Scout Cloud Lee 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_scout_cloud_lee.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 59/ Stillwater, Oklahoma/ rancher
Tribe: Yasur -> Alinta

  • But Not Too Gay: She kissed her partner during the challenge, but it was cut out.
  • Cool Old Lady: Scout was the oldest castaway of the season and managed to avoid being voted out despite being a liability in challenges. Her social maneuvering granted her the fallen angel title.
  • Cool Shades: They help show off her Cool Old Lady vibes.
  • Grumpy Old Woman: When dealing with Eliza, though generally well-liked by the rest of the cast.
  • Ice-Cream Koan: Delivers a couple of these during her tribal council votes, most notably when she votes for Julie and tells her to "return to her roots" (which hints at her Native heritage).
  • The Load: In ALL challenges, including the second immunity challenge where she didn't have to do any physical activity. Hell, one challenge had team members swap out if ever they spilled their entire cup of liquid whilst doing an obstacle course. She immediately spills hers so that a stronger member could take her spot.
  • Passive-Aggressive Kombat: Oh, very much. While Twila would chew you out at the drop of a hat, Scout would just make some backhanded comment towards you.
  • Team Mom: To Yasur. Despite an abysmal challenge game, they unanimously granted her the title of chief during the swap episode.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: With Twila. She is the Blue Oni.

    4th. Eliza Orlins 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_eliza_orlins.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 21/ Syracuse, New York/ pre-law student
Tribe: Yasur -> Alinta

  • All of the Other Reindeer: As elegantly put by herself, for all of Vanuatu she was really working with an alliance of herself, and... well, just herself.
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: How all her other tribemates perceived her, but at least Ami emphasizes the "little sibling" part over the "annoying" part. And, like most of them, she never got favor with the Lopevis.
  • Badass Adorable: On the chopping block since the very first day. Lasted all the way to fourth.
  • Butt-Monkey: Everyone found her annoying and was always in danger of being sent home. She just wants to have friends and feel safe!
  • Irony: Calls Twila a cockroach under the refrigerator, but she's one of the most famous cockroach players in the show's history.
  • Kid Hero: She's the youngest contestant on the season.
  • Motor Mouth: The reason why Scout and Twila got annoyed with her so quickly. Pretty much why everyone was annoyed with her so quickly.
  • Nothing but Skin and Bones: The day she won the car challenge, the other players wanted her to win or at least be taken along because she had become so skinny. She even shows off her shoulder blades nearly poking through her skin.
  • Plucky Girl: The Ur-Example and Trope Codifier for Survivor; Eliza knew that every Tribal Council, she was extremely close to being voted out every time, and in spite of that kept on trucking along (which contributed to her status as an Ensemble Dark Horse). She eventually returned for Survivor: Micronesia.
  • Tag Along Kid: Twila accused her of riding coattails. The reason she lasted as long as she did was because nobody wanted to ally with her, which meant she was a free vote for whoever sweet talked her enough
  • The Thing That Would Not Leave: Pretty much how most people treated her.

    5th. Julie Berry 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_julie_berry.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 23/ Gorham, Maine/ youth mentor
Tribe: Yasur -> Lopevi -> Alinta

    6th. Ami Cusack 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_ami_cusack.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 31/ Lakewood, Colorado/ barista
Tribe: Yasur -> Alinta

  • Action Girl: One of the better physical competitors and also being great at puzzles, earning her only immunity necklace because of one.
  • Anti-Villain: For the most part it's really just the way the game plays out that makes her the villain; aside from a moment here or there she's really not much worse than Chris.
  • Arc Villain: To the Amazon Brigade. Ami's role as the season's chief Straw Feminist comes into focus around the time of the tribe swap (where she underlines the "men vs. women" mentality) and lasts through her elimination at the Final 6. Once she's gone, the narrative shifts more to Chris having to decide whether to side more with the pairing of Eliza and Julie or Scout and Twila as his final endgame competitors.
  • The Baroness: She’s in charge and is rather haughty about it.
  • But Not Too Gay: She kissed her girlfriend during the loved ones challenge, but the edit was not-so-expertly cut to hide it.
  • Ice Queen: Towards the men anyway.
  • Male Gaze: There’s a few shots that show off her large chest.
  • Manipulative Bitch: Just listen to how she talks to Eliza to convince her to keep her alive, like mother telling her child to forget the times she hurt her.
  • Ms. Fanservice: See Male Gaze above.
  • Pet the Dog: Despite everyone's antipathy towards Eliza, Ami fills a big sister role and is Eliza's favorite person on the island.
  • Plucky Girl: Leann's boot pretty much put her on the chopping block, but she kept on trucking.
  • The Queenpin: Especially at post-swap Yasur
  • Smug Snake: She believed she had full control over how the game would play out, even after Leann was voted out and she was on the rocks, she still believed she swayed enough people to keep her in the game.
  • Sore Loser: Criss-crossed. She’s very bitter and whiny on her way out the door, even saying she wants to drown Twila. However, she later gets over somewhat and votes for Twila at Final Tribal Council.
  • Straw Feminist: To the freaking core! To the point where she did to even want to teach the guys who ended up on her tribe mildly useful survival skills.
  • Wham Line: After Lisa is so excited to show the guys the tricks they learned, signifying her rise to power.
    "Why should we?"
  • Worthy Opponent: Chris wanted her gone as soon as possible because she was the biggest physical threat at that point in time. He didn't particularly like either Scout or Twila, but he knew he could beat them.

    7th. Leann Slaby 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_leann_slaby.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 34/ Kansasville, Wisconsin/ financial assistant
Tribe: Yasur -> Alinta

  • Achilles' Heel: She's dreadful in swimming challenges, costing her team at least one challenge because she gave up.
  • Brainy Brunette: As an equity research assistant and the alleged brains of the women's alliance, she is this.
  • The Dragon: To Ami.
  • Exact Words: She voted for Chris because she told Twila that she'd never write her name down.
  • Face Plant: A challenge has tribe members carry coconut water in a shell through a course to fill up a jar. Leann's tribe is way ahead and she just needs to carry the jar back. She casually walks back but her tribe yells at her to run even though it is completely not needed. She starts to run and on her first step she trips and falls on her face. Luckily she didn't spill any water and cost her tribe the challenge.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Decided to target Eliza instead of Chris simply because Eliza was annoying her - Chris took advantage of her decision to rally Eliza to his side and get Leann voted out. And the balance of power shifted.
  • Leg Focus: Jeff remarks about her long her legs are... and how it makes it difficult for her to travel through a bamboo cage.
  • Ms. Fanservice: While Out of Focus, her tall, slender frame and good looks were definitely noticed.
  • Out of Focus: Gets relatively little attention. Her main role in the story is helping ensure Julie flips back to the women’s alliance.
  • Pseudo-Romantic Friendship: With Julie. They spend some time post-merge kissing each other's cheeks, holding each other's hands and dancing. This is why Scout becomes worried about her place in the alliance.
  • Sacrificial Lion: Her elimination marks the dissolution of the women's alliance and the downfall of Ami.
  • Statuesque Stunner: She's a very tall lady. Very noticeable in her boot episode, where you can see that she towers over Probst.
  • The Man Behind the Man: According to post-game interview with Chris, Leann was the one who called shots in all-female alliance, not Ami.

    8th. James "Chad" Crittenden 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_chad_crittenden.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 34/ Oakland, California/ teacher
Tribe: Lopevi -> Alinta

  • Artificial Limbs: His leg, as a result of a tumor. Chad is also the first amputee on the show.
  • Badass Teacher: His job outside of the game, and is also a good competitor.
  • Handicapped Badass: So much so that he was voted out for being a physical threat.
  • Informed Flaw: He is associated with the Fat Five, but he's in great shape and is just as young as the fit four. He might have been lumped in with them because his artificial leg could be a disadvantage, but that condition is largely irrelevant to his successes and failures.
  • Inspirationally Disadvantaged: He got a rare form a cancer that caused his amputation. John Kenney was even worried about taking him to the final two because invoking this trope would probably net him a lot of points.
  • Jaw Drop: Did this so often that it got its own entry on the The Funny 115
  • Never Heard That One Before: Inverted. Chris accidentally makes a leg pun and is promptly mortified upon realizing it. Chad reassures him, saying he's heard every leg pun.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: Chad.
  • The Stoic: Mostly stays out of the drama of the season and is largely unflappable.

    9th. Lea "Sarge" Masters 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_lea_masters.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 40/ Columbia, South Carolina/ drill sergeant
Tribe: Lopevi -> Alinta

  • The Ace: Has a wide set of survival skills and isn’t a bad strategist either.
  • Death Glare: When Scout starts singing to him mockingly the day after Rory was voted off. Probably qualifies as a Funny Moment.
  • Drill Sergeant Nasty: Subverted; he was only this in a challenge where he had to call upon it to lead the tribe. Otherwise he was a pretty good guy.
  • Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Virtually nobody refers to him as Lea. He’s “Sarge”.
  • Gender-Blender Name: How it's spelled, anyway. Probably why he goes by "Sarge".
  • The Leader: When asked to choose the tribe's chief, the men unanimously selected him.
  • Naked People Are Funny: Encouraged by Julie, he tanned his butt on the beach. This caused Chris to freak out.
  • Old Soldier: A former sergeant who became a member of the older men alliance.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: Sarge in the second episode onward. Pretty much the only time anyone referred to him as "Lea" would be Eliza's vote on his boot episode.
  • Team Dad: To Lopevi.

Voted Out

    10th. Rory Freeman 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_rory_freeman.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 35/ Des Moines, Iowa/ housing case manager
Tribe: Lopevi -> Yasur -> Alinta

  • The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Early on, as his temper gets on the nerves of just about everyone. Later, when he’s up against Ami’s callous treatment, the show depicts his complaining as being more legitimate.
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: The moment you put a slingshot in his hands, watch out.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: One of his defining characteristics is that he goes off at the slightest hitch. His wife even points this out her letter to him.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: His bad temper and stand-offish nature put a lot of people off, but his friendship with Bubba and his reactions during the letter reward show a much softer side.
  • "No More Holding Back" Speech: The morning after Bubba's elimination, Rory digs deep and gives them an incredibly cheesy speech, apologizing for his anger and promising to do better.
  • Not Quite Saved Enough: While he'd managed to outlast Lisa after the tribe switch, it was made clear to Rory that he was on the bottom of the pecking order at Yasur and most in danger of going home next. When the tribes merged, he was greatly relieved to be back with his old comrades in Lopevi and was assured that Julie and Twila would join in with them to oust Ami. As it turned out, Julie and Twila were still loyal to their original tribe and ended up blindsiding him that very episode.
  • The One Guy: Quickly becomes this on Yasur once Bubba is voted off.
  • Token Minority: The only African-American. When they head to the island for the first time, he's the only person the natives don't shake spears at.

    11th. John Kenney 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_john_kenney.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 22/ Los Angeles, California/ model, mechanical bull operator
Tribe: Lopevi

  • Dumb Muscle: Subverted. See Smarter Than You Look.
  • Last of His Kind: The very last member of the Fit Four alliance.
  • Lazy Bum: His boot episode paints him as this, but is attributed to him knowing that he's the next on the chopping block.
  • Mr. Fanservice: John was a model at the time of filming, and he continued his modeling career afterwards.
  • The One Guy: Temporarily when he was sent to Yasur to study them.
  • Smarter Than You Look: The episode where he wins individual immunity pre-merge, he's taken back to the Yasur camp to get some insights on camp relations. The first thing he does is split them up based on who voted for whom the tribal before, thus allowing him to see the group's dynamics. His other tribemates applaud him for it.
  • Tag Along Kid: Essentially this as he is the youngest male of the season.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Chris said that the reason he was kept the longest out of all the younger guys was because he was the least skilled at the game.

    12th. Lisa Keiffer 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_lisa_keiffer.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 44/ Mandeville, Louisiana/ real estate agent
Tribe: Yasur

  • Disproportionate Retribution: On the receiving end of this. She accidentally implies that she might be gunning for Ami and gets booted off as a result.
  • Freudian Slip: When gathering food with Ami, Lisa asked how to gather food in case Ami was no longer there. Ami picked up on this and arranged for her oust.
  • Out of Focus: Gets rather limited screen time proportional to how many episodes she's been in.
  • Shocking Elimination: At least In-Universe. Given Ami being a Straw Feminist and Rory being male, one naturally assumed that he was the one going, not her. Twila outright said they were expecting Rory to go.

    13th. Travis "Bubba" Sampson 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_travis_sampson.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 33/ Johnson City, Tennessee/ security guard
Tribe: Lopevi -> Yasur

    14th. Brady Finta 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_brady_finta.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 33/ Huntington Beach, California/ F.B.I. agent
Tribe: Lopevi

    15th. Mia Galeotalanza 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_mia_galeotalanza.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 29/ Boston, Massachussetts/ bookkeeper
Tribe: Yasur

    16th. John "J.P." Palyok 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_john_palyok.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 31/ Los Angeles, California/ sales manager
Tribe: Lopevi

    17th. Dolly Neely 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_dolly_neely.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 25/ Mercer, Pennsylvania/ shepherd
Tribe: Yasur

  • Conditioned to Accept Horror: A pig is slaughtered during the premiere and she doesn't flinch. She says it's because she raises sheep for a living, so she's used to it.
  • Everyone Loves Blondes: Most everyone adores her; her vote-out was almost entirely strategy.
  • Farm Girl: And dressed like the Farmer's Daughter, too.
  • The Ingenue: Seems to have been cast for this role, of which Colleen from Borneo is the prototype.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Brief though her time was, her cuteness was certainly noticed.
  • The Quisling: Subverted. Eliza was paranoid that Dolly would turn into this, and orchestrated Dolly's exit, but Dolly never planned on betraying the younger girls' alliance.

    18th. Brook Geraghty 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s9_brook_geraghty.jpg
Age/ home/ job: 27/ Winthrop, Massachussetts/ secretary
Tribe: Lopevi

  • Ascended Fanboy: To the point of asking to for another chance at the reunion.
  • The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Lobbied the hardest for Chris to be voted out; it caused the majority alliance to turn on him instead.
  • Death by Genre Savviness: Was the first guy voted out for being the only younger man on Lopevi (there was an age war going on at the time) to have watched the show previously. He even called himself a super fan of Survivor in his bio.
  • Gender-Blender Name: "Brook," (though much more commonly spelled "Brooke,") is a common girls' name.
  • I Coulda Been a Contender!: As he says at the reunion, he had bigger plans if he had made it past the first few days.
