'''Kelly Sharbaugh'''

* InformedAbility: Russell really really ''REALLY'' wants her out. For what purpose? She didn't appear to pose any threat. We saw maybe...three minutes of her.

* EnsembleDarkhorse



* GenreBlind: Early in the season, he chose to keep Natalie as an ally instead of Liz because "If we merge, we need somebody on the inside, and Natalie's doin' a good job talkin' to Laura around the camp." In other words, he took her to the end ''knowing'' that she'd get in good with the jurors.

** YMMV, as if anything Erik probably got third-most focus in his tribe up until he went out behind Russell and Shambo.


Added DiffLines:

* ShockingElimination: The editors foreshadow the way he goes out in the preceding episodes, but it's still perhaps the nastiest way a Survivor has gone out since Mike Skupin in ''Australia.''

* BoringButPractical: His strategy; the only reason we even noticed him was his immunity run.



* MemeticMutation: CG-I Brett.



* TheQuietOne: And to be honest; look how far it made him. He was literally the ''last'' Galu member to be elminated...and the last to even be ''targeted'', for that matter.

to:

* TheQuietOne: Normally you don't see these people cast on these sorts of shows because there's making an interesting show and an interesting game. What makes a good show doesn't always make a good game, and vice versa. And to be honest; look how far it made him. He was literally the ''last'' Galu member to be elminated...and the last to even be ''targeted'', for that matter. Having immunity runs certainly didn't help, either.


Added DiffLines:

* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Flipped to Russell's alliance and more or less was the final nail in the Galu coffin. When it comes to just his five and Brett...and Brett becomes immune to the vote...Three guesses who the first to go is. The first two don't count.

'''Betsy Bolan'''
* InformedAbility: Like with Marisa, Russell thought she could have beaten him.
* WorthyOpponent: According to Russell, he had her evicted from the game because she, like Marisa, could have beaten him.

'''Mike Borassi'''
* NonGameplayElimination: So far the ''record'' for the earliest - Episode ''two''. According to him, this turned out to be for the better because he lost around 60+ pounds. (While not obese)

'''Marisa Calihan'''
* ICouldaBeenAContender: According to Russell Hantz.
* InformedAbility: Because of how poorly the season was edited as well as how she was eliminated first, Russell Hantz said that she and Betsy could have beaten him.
* WorthyOpponent: Russell Hantz said that he had her eliminated first because she could have beaten him.

In fact, Funny 115 made a page [[http://funny115.com/v2/107.htm dedicated]] to how the editors suddenly realized that there was someone called "Brett" in the game.



* WeHardlyKnewYe: Averted; along with Brett and Russell Swan she's the ''only'' Galu member that the editors weren't afraid to show us.

* OutOfFocus

to:

* OutOfFocusOutOfFocus: Part of it is because the producers seemed to forget he was there (Same with most of the Galu tribe), but he also blends into a crowd easily, so it can be easy to miss him until the end when the numbers start to dwindle. Shambo and Russell at least had distinctive appearances, and Jaison was large.
