Jonathan Penner

Known for

Penner's Cook Islands was one long dramatic swerve. He followed Candice Woodcock across in the mutiny to rejoin Rarotonga, then flipped straight back after the merge once Yul Kwon showed him the idol and spelled out the consequences. The move doomed Nate but left Penner loathed by the Raro side and never quite inside the Aitu Four, who eventually joined Adam and Parvati in voting him out.

Micronesia showed a looser, funnier Penner stuck in the minority on Malakal, and after the swap to Airai a knee infection turned serious enough that doctors pulled him from the game. Philippines, beside two other returning evacuees, put a bull's-eye on him from day one. He found Kalabaw's idol early, played it at the merge to dodge five votes, then won a come-from-behind immunity. His undoing was turning down a final-four pact with Lisa Whelchel and Michael Skupin, who promptly took their votes to Denise and Malcolm. He left whistling and took a bow on the way out.
