Dave

Dave was a contestant on Survivor: Borneo.

Dave was extremely smart and strategic throughout Borneo although challenges were his weakness. He had formed an alliance in the pre-merge to save himself from being voted out. However, as soon as the merge happened, he betrayed the alliance in favor of forming a majority alliance with members from the opposite tribe. He then systematically voted out whoever opposed him and all of his previous allies. At the final four, it was just his majority alliance left and the votes were a deadlock tie between him and Tyler. This meant that Dave would have to beat Tyler in a challenge to move on. Dave, being terrible at challenges, lost and was therefore eliminated from the game.

## Borneo

In episode 1, Dave was placed on the Tagi tribe. He did not help his tribe build a shelter which some of them did not appreciate. During the immunity challenge, Dave underperformed for his team and was considered to be voted out. However, Ella's fumbles overshadowed Dave's and therefore she was voted out.

In episode 2, Dave manages to perform decently well in the challenges and therefore his tribe won the reward and immunity challenges. He despises Courtney's leadership and heavily supports throwing the next challenge to eliminate Courtney.

In episode 3, Katie and Harold form an alliance with Dave as they believe him to be the most trustworthy out of everyone. The tribe successfully manages to lose the immunity challenge and vote Courtney out as a result.

In episode 4, the tribe manages to win the reward and the immunity challenge again. Behind Dave's back Harold and Katie form an alliance with Blaineley and Mike. This is because they felt that Dave could be deceiving them and they wanted an extra alliance just to be sure.

In episode 5, Dave was also shocked by Sugar's actions after the immunity challenge. He did think that he might be able to use her as a potential strong ally but he thought it was too risky and went against it. He voted for Sugar as well as the rest of the tribe.

In episode 6, when the tribe lost both the reward and the immunity challenge, Dave wanted to vote Mike as he believed that he was the weakest link and that he would not be useful to him at all. That said, he voted for Mike as did the rest of the tribe.

In episode 7, the two tribes merged into the Rattana tribe. He used this opportunity to get to know the Pagong members and see who could be his potential new allies to form a majority alliance. He fins something in common with Sam which was the foundation for the alliance. He voted Bridgette as he though that she was too big of a threat and would not be really useful to him.

In episode 8, Dave breaks away from the alliance of Harold and Katie which kept him safe during pre-merge and formed a majority alliance consisting of Anne Maria, Dawn, Sam and Tyler. The alliance immediately target Blaineley as they believe her to be the biggest threat after she won the first immunity challenge. With the alliance having the majority of votes, there was nothing the rest could do and Blaineley was voted out.

In episode 9, Dave and Dawn end up having a huge fight over the alliance. This leads to Dave kicking Dawn out of the alliance. Katie and Harold form a new alliance with B and Sam to try and combat the majority alliance. With these two alliances, they both voted for Dawn apart from Anne Maria and Tyler since they felt bad for her.

In episode 10, Katie and Harold's alliance starts to crumble as B leaves the alliance. Harold also loses the immunity challenge this episode and this leads to him getting voted out by the majority alliance. Even though Sam was in both alliances, he voted for the majority alliance.

In episode 11, the majority alliance targeted Katie as she was the only person not in an alliance and she was seen as a big threat. This then meant that Dave was the only member of Tagi left.

In episode 12, the majority alliance targeted B as he was the person not included in the alliance. He was also a threat as he won the individual immunity challenge in the episode before.

In episode 13, all the contestants that were left were part of the majority alliance. Dave knew that Tyler and Anne Maria were in a secret alliance together and he knew that the would target him as he was the only Tagi member left. He managed to convince Sam to vote for Tyler so it would at least be a tie. Since it was a tie, it would mean that everyone but the people tied had to revote. However, it was still a tie so that meant the Tyler and Dave would have to compete in a challenge and the loser would be eliminated. Dave was a lot weaker at challenge then Tyler was. This lead to Dave losing the challenge and being eliminated from the game.
