**Jacob "Jake" Harris** was a contestant on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, Survivor: One World, Survivor: Last Chance, and Survivor: Legends.

Jake is best known for his social-strategic game and for his loyalty and willingness to make big moves to save his allies, some of which rocked the game. He worked under the radar during *Heroes vs. Villains*, but got cut close to the end by a fellow ally. When he returned in *One World*, Jake played much more aggressively, but was caught and blindsided once people caught on to how close he was to taking over the rest of the game. Jake returned for a third time in *Last Chance*, where his scheming would paint him as a threat as he met an early demise.

## Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains

At the start of the game, Jake was not phased much by the starting tribes being mixed between the Heroes and the Villains. When he was put onto the Azul Tribe, Jake made quick alliances with Nathan and Dion and he attempted to pull in Kathy into their alliance that they nicknamed *The Inner Circle*. After they narrowly lost the first immunity challenge, they would originally target Michael. However, they then wanted to take out Elizabeth, seeing her as an easier target who for sure would not have a hidden immunity idol. Unfortunately for them, Kathy had other plans and she chose to take out Jake's ally Dion alongside the *Darlington Alliance* which consisted of Michael, Elizabeth, Kaleb, and returning player Bri. Jake would then be safe from the next tribal council when Kathy helped the Azul Tribe to victory in the second immunity challenge, and would also make more of a bond with Bri, as the two felt comfortable having each other in the game.

When the swap occurred, Jake was kept on the Azul Tribe, now known as the Heroes Tribe, and they would win the next immunity challenge. When they lost the next immunity challenge, Jake was immediately weary of Kaleb due to how he was involved with the alliance that took Dion out. However, he chose to vote Bailey alongside Kaleb and Cody to send a signal to Bailey about her status in the game, and Kaleb would be taken out of the game in a 4-3 vote. Jake and the Heroes Tribe would then win the final tribal immunity challenge of the season, guaranteeing the merge for Jake.

When the merge came, Jake did not find much luck in the competitions, but he did find much more luck in the strategical aspect of the developing game. Jake would be included on many conversations for the first merge tribal council, and he would campaign to keep Bri around, as he viewed her as someone who could help him down the road, especially after she told him that her new advantage she got was an extra vote that she had to use at either of the next two tribal councils. Jake would then continue to lay low by helping to blindside Conner in a 10-1 vote. However, his allegiance to Bri did not last long, and he would help blindside her the next tribal council, seeing her as expendable by that point now that he had other stronger alliances with people who were not being targeted. When it was revealed that it was a double tribal council and that they would vote someone else out right away, Jake would help spearhead a plan to vote Bailey out of the game and he would succeed. After he lost the next individual immunity challenge to Christian once again, Jake suggested they target Kathy as she was the biggest threat in the game eligible to be eliminated by that point. However, after some thought, he campaigned to Christian, Cody, and Darius to get rid of Nathan as Jake thought they could persuade Kathy to misplay her hidden immunity idol and so that they could vote out her closest ally in the game at the same time. His alliance would talk through this more and follow suit with his idea, and although Kathy did not use her hidden immunity idol, they still were able to get Nathan out of the game.

When he lost the next individual immunity challenge to Christian for the third time in the game, JP approached him and the others, with the exception of Cody and Christian, to target Cody. During this time, Jake correctly predicted that the two outsiders were looking for idols and advantages. As he was attempting to secure the ever-changing vote, he found out his name was being thrown out for the vote and his concerns started to grow even more when Christian and Cody confirmed these rumors to be true. Cody would then come up with a plan to blindside JP, this plan is what Jake would follow to secure his safety despite him not garnering even one vote in that tribal council.

Once Jake had survived that tribal council, Christian and Kathy had their own conversations and were both bitter at how Jake was still in the game especially after they both said they would vote for him, only to vote against what the other had planned. Despite Jake's life in the game being on the line, Jake could only do so much as he ended up being the first one out at the next individual immunity challenge. After Christian won his 4th individual immunity challenge of the season, Christian, Cody, and Kathy would start the talks to get Jake out of the game. Jake would then campaign to Christian and Cody about getting rid of Kyle or Kathy instead. At that tribal council, Jake would get stuck in a 3-3 tie against Kathy, as Darius and Kyle decided to vote with him. However, this tie would not come to be officially, as Kathy had played her before the votes were read and the votes against her were negated. Jake would get taken out by the three people who didn't vote alongside him, and he would become the sixth member of the jury, placing 6th out of 16th.

At the Final Tribal Council, Jake publicly addressed Kyle the same way others had before him, for only following orders in the game. Although Jake mentioned as well that he had a promise with Darius that he would not put his name down unless it was to win, he did state that his vote was down to Cody and Darius to win. Jake also said he did not hold a grudge against Cody for voting him out and said that it was a good move for his game. In need of more answers, he asked the both of them to say what they thought separated their strategic game from the other's. More impressed by Cody's game than he was by Darius', Jake decided to cast his vote to help Cody win the game.

## Survivor: One World

Jake would be in a very powerful position at the start of the game, as not only would the Beasts Tribe win the first immunity, but they also got first pick of Kathy or Christian to be on their team, they chose Christian. Jake would have his main alliances with Christian, Hunter, and Josh, but he would be on good terms with everyone. He had also found a hidden immunity idol right away which he kept secret from anyone and everyone. However, he did see Kathy get two advantages (even though she found three) and saw Christian get what he thought was an idol. When the Beasts Tribe narrowly lost the next immunity challenge, Christian would heavily campaign for Hunter, but Jake would see through that and would target Seth due to him already having a hidden immunity idol and playing the game with his girlfriend, Bailey, who was on the other tribe. However, Christian refused to change his vote from Hunter along with Josh which caused a 2-2-2 tie between Hunter, Josh, and Seth. Jake would vote for Seth again, but it didn't matter when Jake's ally Josh was blindsided by Sam and Christian in a 2-1 vote on the revote.

When the tribes swapped, Jake would be swapped onto the Purple Team alongside Bailey, Devin, Jack, and Hunter. Jake would solidify his bond even further with Hunter and Devin and they would win the next immunity challenge.

Jake was shocked to see that Seth got Christian out with one vote and two idols. Behind the scene, Kathy asked who they would target next and they immediately said Seth, but they would all be shocked to see Seth win the first individual immunity challenge of the season. Jake would help the others to blindside Sam and get her out of the game due to her close connections to Seth and Bailey. After losing to Seth and Jack in the next immunity challenge, everyone was gunning for Hunter. Once Jake got wind of this, he saw this as an opportunity to make a move against Kathy for having too many advantages. This proved correct when Kathy stole Hunter's vote at the tribal council. Jake teamed up with Devin and they both voted Kathy. While Kathy, Cody, and Bailey voted for Hunter, Jake played his idol for him, keeping his best ally safe from getting blindsided in a ~~4~~-2-1-1 vote; this would result in Kathy taking the blow as she would be taken out by those two votes. After losing to Bailey, Devin was weary of Jake in the game, as he predicted he could get an easy win at the end. Devin knew Cody would use some of Kathy's advantages so he teamed up with Cody and worked together to blindside Jake. At Tribal Council, Bailey used Jake as a throwaway vote and voted alongside the guys, eliminating Jake in a 4-3 vote as he became the third member of the jury, placing 7th out of 12th.

At the Final Tribal Council, Jake decided not to address the final three, but the jury instead. He pleaded to the jury that Hunter's game wasn't getting enough credit and to his dismay was put down by Devin and Seth. Unfortunately, his statements would fall on deaf ears as he was the only person to vote for Hunter in a 4-1-1 vote.

At the *Survivor: One World Reunion Episode*, Jake mentioned that had Christian not been granted immunity for the first Tribal Council he went to, Christian would have been out sooner than he was, as no one trusted him in anyway. Jake then went on to mention how exactly he was able to pull off Kathy's blindside, and also said that he felt it was due vengeance for how Kathy blindsided him in a similar fashion in their previous season. Jake then talked about how easy it was to find hidden immunity idols and advantages this season, of which he said he saw Kathy specifically find some at the beginning of the game. Jake then went on to say that he felt that his biggest mistake in the game was not talking to Cody before he was eliminated from the game. Jake mentioned that his friendship and alliance with Hunter was tight enough to a point where they both would have brought the other to the end. Jake made a prediction that future players would rely more on voting blocks and debates and rely less on permanent alliances.

## Survivor: Last Chance

Back once again, Jake would begin his third chance in the game on Tribe Targaryen and he would be told that he would immediately be competing in the first immunity challenge of the season with his new tribemates Elizabeth, Jack D., John, JP, Kyle, Maggie, and Tom. Despite Jake's best efforts to help his tribe, Tribe Targaryen would lose immunity, sending Jake to the first Tribal Council of the season. At camp, Jake would quickly connect with the other men in their tribe, with them all deciding to have a guys' alliance and would quickly throw Elizabeth's name onto the chopping block as an easy first boot. When their tribe would bond with each other, Jake would speak publicly about his struggles with his past seasons in having to attend Tribal Council in the early game. In private, Jake would speak about his tribe's difficulties within the challenge but was very confident that he would not be the first one voted out. However, he would also go on to privately mention that, despite not wanting to make too much noise at the start of the game, Jake was unsure if eliminating Elizabeth was the best option for his game, as he wanted to utilize her as a pawn down the line. When confronted by Elizabeth and Maggie about targeting John, Jack D. and Jake would help JP to make their "allegiance" to the women seem legitimate in order to convince the women to not vote against them. At Tribal Council, Jake's true allegiances became obvious, as Elizabeth would be eliminated in a 6-2 vote, with Jake being a part of the 6.

After Elizabeth's elimination, Jake and his tribemates would be greeted by Jack M., coming to replace Elizabeth after spending the previous round in the Solo Room. Jake would help to welcome Jack M. to their tribe and would attempt to bond with him, as his other tribemates were doing, on their way to the next challenge. At the second immunity challenge, Jake would make an effort on the puzzle portion of the challenge alongside JP and Maggie, and they would fall behind quickly once the other tribe figured it out, costing them the win and sending Jake back to Tribal Council once again. Back at camp, Jake would waste no time attempting to throw out John's name to Jack M., and Jake would later throw out Jack M. as an option to vote off when conversing with Jack D. and John. As most of their tribemates piled into the conversation together, they would all quickly agree to vote off Jack M., as almost all of them would blame him for their second consecutive loss, with Jake repeatedly agreeing to this plan and restating that he was good with it. In private, Jake would talk about how he was not very good with puzzles, and revealed that he wanted to vote against John, seeing him as a bigger threat, but was feeling okay with the vote, also stating that he wanted to initiate moves but also did not want to be seen as the leader at that time. When the tribe was discussing their thoughts on the other tribe choosing to celebrate their win by drinking, Jake would jokingly mention that they would be drunk by the time of the merge if things kept up the way they currently were. Despite this assumption, some people on Tribe Potowatomi, such as Michael, were very much aware of his presence in the game, as well as his strategic prowess. At Tribal Council, Jake would cast his vote against Jack M., and would get his vote casted right back at him as Jack M. was voted out in a 7-1 vote, keeping Jake alive another round. Before the next challenge, Jake would be surprised to see a tribe swap that would keep him on the same tribe alongside Jack D., JP, and Tom, with the four of them now having Alex swap over to their tribe. Alex's arrival would prove to be beneficial to Jake's game, as the four Targaryen men would finally win an immunity challenge, while also finally giving Jake some time to breathe.

At the next immunity challenge, Jake would put in his all to help his tribe, with his efforts proving to help them a lot as Tribe Targaryen would once again win immunity, keeping Jake safe once more as he was able to get more time to scheme with his current tribemates back at camp to ensure that the game was playing out in his favor. At the next immunity challenge, Jake would once again give forth a valiant effort in an attempt to make sure he could avoid another loss. Unfortunately, his tribe's efforts went in vain, as Tribe Targaryen would lose, sending Jake right back to Tribal Council to vote someone off again. Back at camp, Jake would immediately make a plan with Alex and Tom to vote out Jack D., who they all saw as a threat for an expected merge due to his reputation in challenges and alliance-making. Unbeknownst to him, a later conversation between JP and Tom would reveal that Jake is actually everyone else's target, with JP saying to Tom that they were planning on voting Jake because they think he has done nothing for them in the game and because they think Jake would betray them at the merge. As the two men would convince Jack D. to vote Jake with them, JP would also privately claim that he was aware that Jake was gunning for him, and claimed that the "war" between Jake and JP would be a "Battle of the Bastards". This "battle" would be all but confirmed when Jake revealed in a confessional that he was actually plotting to vote against JP, with his reasoning being that JP would be a threat at the merge due to his connections with Lita, JP's girlfriend and fellow player, and Tom, a close friend of JP's outside of the game. Jake would go on to privately say that it would be easier for the self-proclaimed "locked votes" of himself, Alex, and Jack D. to vote out JP now rather than after the merge. However, Tribal Council would tell a different story, as the "locked votes" would seemingly be "unlocked", as one of them, being Alex, would vote against Jake, and the other, Jack D., would vote with JP and Tom to eliminate Alex from the game in a 3-1-1 vote, with only Jake sticking to his intended plan, despite his confidence in his strategic schemes.

Despite now being in a risky position, Jake would get news that the merge was now upon them, bringing Jake much joy as he was now able to play the game with more allies. Jake would then be tossed immediately into the first individual immunity challenge of the season, of which he would lose to Lita. At camp, Jake would immediately regroup with Sam C., his cousin, and the two of them would talk with Collin, Jack D., and Tom about planning to get rid of Michael, who they were starting to grow more weary of when they caught wind that he had a hidden immunity idol, which would be very much confirmed by Lita moments later when she stumbled into their conversation. Even though the group of six would question whether or not Michael would realistically play the idol, Jake mentioned that he had been observing Michael's anxious body language and believed it was a telling sign that he would play it, prompting Sam C. to suggest they split the votes to prevent Michael from getting control of the vote. Jake would then quickly leave the conversation to get intel on the others not there to spill to the core six, and he would speak with JP and Michael, the former of whom suggested that they target Sam R., now being dubbed as Dolphin Sam, with Michael telling Jake about how he betrayed him in *Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites: Revenge of the Fallen*, and Jake would pretend to agree to this plan, keeping this information on the back of his mind for later. Jake would then talk to Ashley, Conner, Maggie, and Dolphin Sam, and when they told him that they were down for doing whoever, Jake would take this opportunity to throw out JP's name to them, claiming that he heard other people wanting to target him. Jake would then return to the rest of the core six, now with Dolphin Sam, who he would inform that Michael and his allies were gunning for Dolphin Sam as they attempted to figure out how to split the votes efficiently and how to get JP on their side, as the seven of them recognized that in order for their plan to work, they needed JP on their side. Jake and the others there would quickly decide to split the votes on Conner and Michael, with four votes going to each so that if Michael did play his idol, then they could just vote Conner off instead. Despite Jake seeming to now be in a better position, some people still had him as a concern on their mind, with JP being very aware that Jake was still targeting him despite all of the anti-Michael sentiment amongst the merged tribe and with Sam C. saying that he and Jake were staying separated for as long as they could to prevent a family-themed target coming onto them. In private, Jake would call out the two groups at hand, being Michael's group and the other group, and he recapped their plan as he expressed his desire to find a hidden immunity idol for himself, believing that he could not rely on individual immunity challenges throughout the game. Later on, Jake and the others, now with JP on their side, would put together their plan, with all of the original Tribe Targaryen members voting for Michael, and all of the original Tribe Potowatomi members voting for Conner. At Tribal Council, even though Jake expressed the chaos going on within their tribe, with him calling out how everyone's names were being tossed around, their plan would go through perfectly, with Michael not even playing his hidden immunity idol and Ashley voting against JP as Jake suggested her to do before, and Conner and Michael would be locked in a 4-4-3-1 tied vote. On the revote, Jake would cast the easiest vote he's ever casted, and would vote off Michael on the revote, sending him out of the game as the jury phase had begun.

Despite beginning the merge in great fashion, things slowly started to go south for Jake, starting an individual immunity loss to Sam C., his cousin. Back at camp, Jake talked to some of the Core 8 alliance from the previous vote, and they initially planned to vote for Ashley or Conner to continue dismantling Michael's alliance. However, some people cannot resist temptation, as Jake would agree to vote for Jack D. after one talk with Ashley and Maggie, seeing it as a valuable move. Jake continued to campaign for Jack D.'s elimination to Collin, Conner, and Sam C., citing Jack D. as a major threat. However, once Jack D. approached their conversation, Jake quickly fled instead of coming up with a cover story, the doing of which fell onto Sam C.. As Jake floated from one group to the next; JP, Lita, and Tom decided that Jake and Sam C. 's familial connection, alongside his strategic prowess, was too big of a red flag, and the anti-Jake campaigns began. This target would be unknown to Jake, and it would only be increased when his and Sam C.'s plans to target JP and Lita in the future were also exposed by Ashley and Maggie. In private, Jake stated his happiness for his cousin winning individual immunity if it is not him, and claimed his intentions to vote Jack D. out, saying that it would not be a blindside since "all of the votes are going to be like this", despite his concerns for hidden immunity idols or advantages having an impact, and he vented his frustrations with Jack D. not voting with him before against JP. Jake's plans became malleable as he talked to the others; with him being told to vote for Dolphin Sam by JP, Tom, and later Collin; and then with him attempting to form a fake majority to vote off Maggie with his Core 8 allies before finally settling on voting for Lita. At Tribal Council, Jake voted for Lita and called out Michael for his actions on the jury bench and added insult to injury as he insulted Michael's gameplay. However, it would be Jake to join Michael on the jury as he got the blindside he craved, getting eliminated in a 9-2 vote. Jake would become the second member of the jury and would place 11th out of 17th.
