Known for

Abi-Maria opened Philippines tight with RC Saint-Amour, until Pete Yurkowski planted the idol clue in RC's bag and Abi turned on her friend. Tandang cruised into the merge intact, but her treatment of tribemates pushed Lisa Whelchel and Michael Skupin to the other side. She played a real idol to save herself, then spent the auction on a challenge advantage, turned it into her lone immunity win, and floated a fake idol for good measure. Her last-ditch pitch to Lisa and Michael included calling Michael names, and they voted her out. On the jury, she still voted for rival Denise Stapley.

Cambodia's second chance followed a familiar script. Mocked by her Ta Keo alliance, she flipped to the old schoolers, took over Angkor with Tasha Fox and Andrew Savage after the swap, and joined the Witches Coven blindsides at the merge. She sat in the swing seat when Stephen Fishbach fell, but her unpredictability finally made her the target.
