=== Swifties vs. The World ===
==== Challenge Queen ====
Emily debuted on the Variety Tribe, proud to be a non-Swiftie. As the season kicked off, she had great challenge performance and great social communication with other members of her tribe. Through teamwork, the Variety Tribe dominated the Scavenger Hunt and later Music Mania, but tribal council never occurred for either tribe during the first five days due to various reasons. Emily played a huge part in the latter challenge, placing third with her own slide and also making one for Maddie due to her hospitalization at the time, which ended up winning! The first real challenge to hold weight was Celebrity Recognition, which Emily's tribe lost despite having an advantage granted to them. It was time to strategize, and fortunately, nobody wanted to vote off Emily as she was too valuable of an asset to the tribe. Emily had formed a small alliance with Kailani due to their relationship from indoor track, but she was a Swiftie and could not help at the vote. The same could not be said about Leo, who Shea (who had a dominant presence on the tribe) wanted to vote off. At the same time, Delaney had pulled together Emily and Ailish to be a part of the Queens' Alliance. While Emily was not fond of Shea, she was smart enough to know where the majority was and voted against Leo, despite his feeble attempt to remain in the game. He went home that night in a 4-2-1 vote. With one tribal out of the way, it was time to start killing challenges once again! Emily did a great job on the Silky Jigsaw, competing with tribemate Kai to get the lowest time. The Variety Tribe won, and Family Feud came up as the next challenge. Emily scored points where she could, but really shined regarding a trivia question about ancient history. She used her general knowledge and material from her AP European History course to steer her tribe in the right direction, guaranteeing the win! At top ten, she merged onto the Harmony Tribe with a Variety majority.
==== Lemonade ====
At the merge, Variety outnumbered the Swifties 6-4. However, there was no shot of the Variety Tribe uniting as Shea was too much of a problem. Now, there was no risk of a tribe falling apart, and Shea was entirely vulnerable without winning immunity. Emily did not waste the opportunity to take him out, and everyone else was on board with the exception of Kai for unknown reasons. Shea was promptly voted out, and he left with an idol in his pocket, leaving a new one up for grabs. The auction occurred next, and Emily wisely spent all $500! She won two items. The first was a candy bar, which held no value in the game. The second was a clue to the hidden immunity idol, which she successfully obtained! She now had an idol and was still in tight with the Queens' Alliance. The high did not end for her though as she and Stella both won immunity in Hot Couture! Kai was easily voted out, and Emily's immunity streak continued as she won Check In! She voted off Maddie due to her request, and she went out in a 7-1 vote. However, festivities were not over as it turned out to be a double tribal council as a twist! Logan won immunity in the pop-up challenge, and Emily, along with the Queens' Alliance, voted against challenge and strategic threat Stella. They held majority as Delaney was in good with Shauna and the two of them had Logan wrapped around their manipulative fingers. However, Stella played her hidden immunity idol that night, aware that she was receiving votes due to Ailish betraying the Queens' Alliance. Five votes against Stella were nullified, being Emily's, Delaney's, Logan's, Shauna's, and an extra vote played by Shauna. Emily did not play her idol, and unfortunately she was the target, as Logan commanded Y2K Unite to take a shot at her simply because he didn't like her. Emily left the game on Day 16 with an idol, the same day she won immunity. She was the fourth member of the jury and voted for Delaney to win. She was awarded the Villain Award for being the main obstacle in Y2K Unite's path.
