==== Noob ====
Leo debuted on the Fans Tribe as a new player. He had previously shown interest in Dynamic Duos but couldn’t apply due to not having a duo. He finally got his shot at the game in a whole new era, and he played incredibly well. Starting off with the very first immunity challenge, the Scavenger Hunt, he had a lot of submissions. He even went the extra mile and attempted to finesse the joke credit card entry with a debit card, but to no avail. In addition to a successful first night, Leo found the Richie Idol! After losing the challenge, he went with the majority and voted Bia out. Following the first couple nights, he had slight input on Unlimited Questions and, aware of the impending loss, did not bother attempting Music Mania. He went with the popular vote each time, taking out Griffin and then Aryana. His closest relationships were members of the Favorites Tribe, and he got to get out of the Fans Tribe due to the Day 7 Tribe Swap. He’s expressed discontent before about the tribe set-up being unfair, but little did he know he just ended up swapping from one hellhole to another.
==== King of Lohan ====
Tribe Pride started off nice as Sabrina carried the flag, but this was the only taste Lohan would ever have of victory as after losing Everybody Is Here, a losing streak began. The tribe lost the challenge by default as nobody even made a document. The tribe of five was set up interestingly from a strategic standpoint. Sabrina and Alison were 100% a pair, while Jessica and Anthony were 100% a pair. Leo was in the middle, making him the most valuable player. Stella suggested in the Pippin Unit chat that Alison should try and sway Leo to their side, which was successful. It was the right move as well as Jessica foolishly targeted Leo, not analyzing the situation at hand. Jessica would’ve been sent home that night if it weren’t for Sabrina’s expulsion. After losing That’s Hot, the Lohan four were back at tribal. Alison was immune due to her crackers, and Leo maintained his alliance with her. Knowing he would be the target, he played his idol and Jessica was sent home. On Night 12, Leo was in the hospital due to a headache but late at night, he kept getting pestered by people like Stella and special guest Kailani to lock in and decipher the idol clue to find the new Lohan replacement idol. After a lot of aggravation, he was successful in finding the idol! Moving onto the Day 13 challenge, Leo fumbled with stickers and as a result Lohan finished with negative points. The twist of the night was a joint tribal council with Hilton. Lady was leading the other side and got Alison’s support, and she organized a split between Leo and Anthony. Leo voted against Anthony as it could be seen coming from a mile away, and he was taken out. Leo felt safe and did not play his idol, saving it for future use. It came in handy after Lohan had to attend tribal one last time. At this point, it was just him and Alison, and they had to face off in a Wordle tiebreaker. The word was “Lohan” and instead of risking it, Leo played his idol shortly into the sudden death tiebreaker to secure safety, and Alison was eliminated by default. After being stuck in hell and witnessing four casualties, Leo was the sole survivor of Lohan and merged onto the Spears Tribe on Day 16.
==== Lohan Spirit Lives On ====
On paper, it seemed that he would be isolated at the merge, but his ties with Josh came in handy. The DOMINATORS disbanded and formed The Ultimate Sigmas, which was essentially the exact same alliance but with Leo as the fourth and final member. They absolutely ran the game together. They took out Ollie as the easy first merge vote, then Leo swept the auction with three wins! He won twelve Starbursts total, as well as an advantage in the next immunity challenge. The advantage allowed him to pick the teams for Family Feud, and he put together his own alliance as well as Logan for his team. They easily won by sweeping both rounds, and Leo and Stella shocked Josh with some of their answers. A strategic mishap by Josh in the alliance caused Chelsea to get voted out over their target, Angel, following the challenge. The alliance solidified after the mistake though, and vowed to stick together until the end. Angel soon fell off the alliance radar as Emily urged Cheap Thrills to end, just for her to win. This didn’t sit right with any of the Sigmas, and they wanted her gone as soon as possible. After Lady’s medical evacuation, the events of Double Birthday took place on Day 24. While Leo was a bystander, he ended up being one of the two people without immunity and was at risk of being the casualty of the night. While the opposition wanted to take out Leo, the Sigmas had his back. Even Stella, who had Kai to easily manipulate, voted him out on the revote to solidify the alliance. Kai was sent home, and from here on out it was an easy ride for Leo. He worked with the majority to send home Emily, Angel, and finally, Logan. In most of the challenges, Leo didn’t compete. He even stated that “the Lohan in [him] doesn’t want [him] to.”
==== The End of Fig ====
At the final four, Josh secured immunity in InstaGaga. While Josh had initially planned to stick with Leo, his spot in the jury would seem to be a guaranteed vote. Stella reenacted the original DOMINATORS group chat, stating that the trio has been together since the beginning and that they should stick together. Everyone agreed, and Leo was unanimously voted out as he became the seventh and final member of the jury. He later voted for Josh to win. For being comedic relief the entire season, the longest surviving Fan, sole survivor of Lohan, aiding his alliance multiple times, and having the quote of the season, Leo was awarded with the Hero Award at the end of the season!
=== Swifites vs. The World ===
After an impressive showing on his debut season, Leo came back in the following season, Swifties vs. The World. Not being a Taylor Swift fan, he was put on the Variety Tribe with a strong motive to gatekeep his music taste. As far as the challenges went, he did well! He notably got up early to capture the sunrise for the Scavenger Hunt. The Variety Tribe knocked out the first two challenges, including Music Mania. This challenge was Leo's biggest enemy, and he only decided to attempt and submit on the due date. Despite Shea's disapproval, his poster scored well and placed 8th! Celebrity Recognition was next, and this is where the Variety Tribe had to attend tribal council. Leo had already been butting heads with Shea, and was ready to get him out. He also had a very condescending attitude towards the rest of the tribe, so he believed it would be easy to split between him and his girlfriend at the time, Delaney. He was in the Y2K Unite alliance, but they could not help directly as they were all members of the Swifite Tribe, so Leo was restricted to doing all communication and strategizing himself. He tried to get Maddie to talk to Emily, which didn't work in his favor and made him suspicious. Still, Maddie and Kai voted alongside Leo and were in favor of the vote split. However, Shea and the Queens' Alliance voted Leo off. He went from fourth place to the fourth voted out.
