Lauren Beck
Island of the Idols' social engine, who ran the middle with Tommy all the way to the fire pit and no further.
Known for
Lauren bonded with Tommy Sheehan on the first days of Vokai, and that partnership held for the whole season. She helped build a majority and directed the early blindside of Molly Byman. The tribe switch left her in a deadlocked split, and when Elaine Stott's vote blocker cost them Jason Linden, Lauren and Tommy tried shifting the target onto Dan Spilo, which only made the Lairo side suspicious of them.
After the merge she kept finding the right side of the numbers. She helped blindside Aaron Meredith to rebuild the Vokai core, then took on the mentors' test on the Island of the Idols: she talked nearly everyone into sitting out a challenge so her two picks would win it, and earned an idol when Noura Salman did. She later won immunity herself to foil a plot against her, and helped get Dean Kowalski's nullifier onto Janet Carbin's idol. Noura then sent her to fire against Dean, distracting her practice with explanations, and Lauren lost. On the jury she voted for Tommy.
