History Characters / SurvivorPanama

* [[DwindlingParty Dwindling Tribe]]: When the men started getting voted out, Viveros was quickly reduced to one member.

* [[DwindlingParty Dwindling Tribe]]: Starting in the third episode immunity, La Mina would go on a losing streak and ended up in the minority in the merge and was picked off one by one. The reason the tribe wasn't completely pagong post-merge was Terry's immunity streak.

* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Bruce. Coincidentally, Her [[NamesTheSame name is the same]] with Bruce's Daughter.

* [[UngratefulBastard Ungrateful Bitch]]: To Terry.

* TheHero: Of La Mina.
** [[TheHeroDies The Hero Gets Voted Out]]

* [[ThoseTwoGuys Those Two Girls]]: With Misty on La Mina.

* [[FaceDeathWithDignity Face Elimination With Dignity]]: After messing up in the immunity challenge, he completely owns up to his shortcoming and admits freely that he deserves to be voted out over the other three men.

* [[BlackDudeDiesFirst Black Dude Get voted out First]]: And was the first man to be voted off his season too (the first four boots were all female, while he was the fifth to leave).

* [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]: What led to her elimination. Terry and Dan recognized her intelligence and feared she would be a threat post-merge.

* FailureHero: Though he dominated in challenges, every single attempt of his to take over the game ended up falling apart. With the numbers not on his side at the merge, Terry tried to lure away several of Casaya's fringe players (Bruce and Danielle) by pointing out they were likely at the bottom of the tribe's hierarchy once La Mina was eliminated. It didn't work, and the rest of his teammates were Pagonged while Casaya's alliance held firm. When Casaya was finally forced to turn on each other starting at the Final 6, Terry felt out people who might be willing to work with him, but the ones he wanted to take to the Final 2 (Courtney and Shane) were each swiftly eliminated by Aras, Cirie, and Danielle. He finally got Danielle on his side at the Final 4 to force a tie vote against Aras and Cirie and it payed off, with Cirie going home and putting Aras alone against Terry and Danielle. Come the Final Immunity Challenge, Danielle actually won, and Terry thought that he had a spot in the Finals. But it turned out to be his undoing, as Danielle worried about which of the two guys she had the best chance against at Final Tribal Council and ultimately picked Aras to take with her, leaving Terry voted off just before the end.

* 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 let's say throwing a challenge). 3. Three, Aras also had to deal with Cirie and her GambitRoulette, 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.

Instead it ended with Shane threatening to drive to her "shitty" apartment and kill her.

* CloudCuckoolander: Especially his method for trying to start a fire on the original Viveros tribe; it's likely that all his...eccentricities were overlooked thanks to being on the same tribe as Courtney and Shane (who were both even crazier than he was).

* SurroundedByIdiots: More like Surrounded by Crazy People

* WhamLine: Aras told Danielle he was done with Shane. In elaborates on this further in a confessional.
