History Characters / SurvivorPanama

* BlackDudeDiesFirst: And was the first man to be voted off his season too(the first four boots were all female, while he was the fifth)

* HilariousInHindsight: When she picks Shane to be on her tribe, she calls him "The cool guy with the [[HollywoodNewEngland Boston]] tattoo. This is doubly ironic since not only was Shane not from Boston like she was(it was actually his son's name), both Danielle and Shane later end up hating each other.

* CuteBruiser: She' a very good athlete.

* BunnyEarsLawyer

* TearJerker: Her son died only a few months before the game began. This is revealed (to the confession cam) rather abruptly midway through end of the episode.

* GagBoobs: Those breast implants hover back and forth between hypnotic and hilarious.

* UncannyValley: See GagBoobs, above. Her breast implants are so cheesily obvious, and look so out of place on her otherwise lanky frame, that the effect is more creepy than attractive.

* SouthernFriedGenius

* EarnYourHappyEnding: 1. First, Aras ended up on Casaya, the biggest RagtagBunchOfMisfits of a tribe that the show has ever seen, and he has to reign them all in and lead them in challenges in spite of La Mina being the clearly stronger tribe. 2. Two, he had Terry breathing down his neck during the entire merge as well as suffering defeat after defeat from him in challenges while living under the threat of a {{MacGuffin}} that could eliminate Aras from the game any time Terry wanted to use it(by lets saying throwing a challenge). 3. Three, Aras also had to deal with Cirie and her XanatosRoulette, and the only way ''she'' got out of the picture was when Aras finally won immunity at the final four, forcing Terry and Danielle to vote for Cirie due no one else remaining. 4. Finally, he had to convince the jury that he deserved the money over Danielle in spite of accusations from the jury that he was generally nothing but a LazyBum in RealLife.

* BuxomIsBetter

'''Bobby ''Bobdawg'' Mason'''

'''Bobby 'Bobdawg' Mason'''

* TolietHumour

* FinalWords: Instead of the usual pleasantries or bitter rants people give when they are voted off, Nick gives a quite possibly epic final words dovetailing his experience on the show with his (what appears to be libertarian) political beliefs.

* NonGameplayElimination: The second in the (american) series!

* NonGameplayElimination

* [[DesignatedHero Designated Heroine]]: She organizes a blindside against a woman whose son had just been killed by a drunk driver prior to filming and was by far the most competent member of the older women tribe. In the 'first episode.' And yet, she's portrayed as the TeamMom the whole game.

* HeroKiller: The last episode saw Danielle directly eliminating two major and fan favorite players (Cirie and Terry) this season.
