Katie Gallagher
Palau's snark queen who rode Koror's juggernaut all the way to the end, and heard about it from the jury.
Known for
Katie locked into an alliance with Tom Westman and Ian Rosenberger on the very first night, and Koror's run of challenge wins did the rest. Not much of an athlete, she sat out challenge after challenge, and spent the downtime mocking Ulong's Bobby Jon Drinkard and James Miller and needling tribemates in her confessionals. Coby Archa and Caryn Groedel fumed that she joked instead of working.
In the individual game she flirted with a women's alliance against Tom more than once but never pulled the trigger. She cost Ian a reward in a side deal with Gregg Carey, then voted Gregg out anyway rather than face a rock draw. Ian finally bowed out of the final immunity to prove his loyalty to Tom, which carried Katie into the last two. The jury tore into her laziness, her challenge record and how she had treated them, and Tom won 6-1, with Coby's vote for Katie keeping it from being unanimous.
