Brandon Quinton
The sharp-tongued Samburu youngster whose one swing vote at the merge left both sides doubting him.
Known for
Brandon was a pillar of Samburu's younger alliance in Africa, alongside Kim Powers, Lindsey Richter and, eventually, a defecting Silas Gaither. The tribe split cleanly by age, and Brandon never hid his disdain for the older crowd, Frank Garrison above all. A tiebreaker handed the young alliance control, but the tribe switch brought three Boran members to camp, Silas got blindsided, and Lindsey went soon after, leaving Brandon in the minority for the first time.
The merge made him a swing vote. Lex van den Berghe, convinced Kelly Goldsmith had voted against him, asked Brandon to help take her out, and Brandon's dislike of Frank tipped him over. It backfired immediately: Kim P. felt betrayed and the Boran side never fully trusted him. A random pairing sent him on a reward date with Frank, of all people, and they won it. Brandon was voted out soon after, then used his jury vote on Kim Johnson.
