Angie Jakusz

Cassandra Anne "Angie" Jakuszhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm1800133/bio was a contestant from .
Chosen last for the infamous ill-fated Ulong tribe, Angie was initially an outsider due to her distinctly different personality from her tribemates. Seeking to show to her tribe that she was useful, Angie proved to be a fierce competitor in challenges, often being perceived as one of the stronger women on Ulong. When a Double Tribal Council was announced, Ulong was left scrambling after target Ibrehem Rahman was granted immunity by the rival Koror tribe, ultimately resulting in Angie being voted out.

After all 20 castaways were marooned on the same beach on Day 1, Angie initially bonded with Coby Archa over their past experiences of being ostracized in their daily lives. Despite this, Coby shocked his new friend when he chose to select Caryn Groedel to be on the Koror tribe during the Schoolyard Pick on Day 2 instead of Angie. In the final round of the Schoolyard Pick, Angie was selected to be on the Ulong tribe by Ibrehem Rahman over the other remaining woman, Wanda Shirk. Due to a twist, the unpicked castaways, Wanda and Jonathan Libby, were eliminated from the game. Angie felt uncomfortable as the last person picked overall and felt that she was on the wrong tribe.
After Ulong lost the first Immunity Challenge, Angie was targeted by Jolanda Jones for being an apparent challenge liability and being the last picked. However, she was spared at Tribal Council because Jolanda was blamed for costing the tribe the challenge and was perceived as bossy, leading to her elimination. In the next challenges, Angie proved to her tribemates that she was a fierce competitor, particularly when she led Ulong to victory at the Reward Challenge on Day 4. Unfortunately, Ulong would lose the next three Immunity Challenges, and Angie voted alongside the majority in voting out Ashlee Ashby, Jeff Wilson, and Kim Mullen.
On Day 12, host Jeff Probst revealed that both tribes would be voting someone out that night in a Double Tribal Council. Ulong lost the subsequent Reward Challenge, with the loss being blamed on Ibrehem. He was the initial target heading into Tribal Council, but a twist allowed Koror to give an Ulong member immunity as part of their reward. Ibrehem, the obvious target, was granted immunity by Koror, leading to Ulong having to scramble at the last minute. The resulting vote would end in a 2-2-1 tie between Angie and Bobby Jon Drinkard. At the revote, Angie was voted out unanimously.
