Carter Williams

Carter Williams is a contestant from .
Carter was not a highly visible player for much of the season, largely operating in the shadows cast by strategic powerhouses Jeff Kent and Jonathan Penner. However, he demonstrated considerable challenge prowess and this, combined with his penchant for loyalty, caused the other castaways to identify him as a late-game threat, resulting in his elimination.

Carter was placed on the Kalabaw tribe at the beginning of the season. While he was initially against returning player Jonathan Penner, Carter later joined in an alliance with him and Jeff Kent, opposing the women of the tribe. Later, after Matsing was dissolved, Denise Stapley joined Kalabaw. She also joined Carter's alliance and helped vote out the tribe's women.
At the merge, Carter remained loyal to Jeff, even after they betrayed Jonathan and voted out RC Saint-Amour. However, Jeff was later voted out by the Tandang Alliance, forcing Carter to return to Jonathan's side. Luckily, Carter and Jonathan would later become part of the majority after aligning with Denise, Malcolm Freberg, Michael Skupin, and Lisa Whelchel, helping to vote out the majority Tandang alliance.
Unfortunately for Carter, Abi-Maria Gomes (the last remaining member of the Tandang alliance) won the Day 30 Immunity Challenge, forcing Carter's alliance to turn on each other. Although Carter and Jonathan tried to pull Michael to their side and vote out Denise, he ultimately sided with Malcolm, Denise, and Lisa, and voted out Jonathan 4-3, leaving Carter on the outs. Carter received a hug from Jonathan before the latter departed.
Now with no alliance, Carter tried to persuade the rest of the tribe to honor their word and vote out Abi-Maria like they said they would, after she failed to win Immunity again. However, they all deemed Carter too likable to continue, and unanimously voted him out at the following Tribal Council. He became the sixth juror.
At the Final Tribal Council, Carter asked Michael why he voted him out. Michael responded that it was hard for him to vote out Carter, as he viewed him like one of his kids. Carter ultimately voted for Michael to be the Sole Survivor, but he lost to Denise in a 6-1-1 vote.
