**Jess** is a contestant from *Survivor: Dear Evan Hansen*.

## Dear Evan Hansen

At the beginning of the game the 20 castaways were sorted into 2 different tribes, the Evan Tribe and the Connor tribe. Jess was placed on the Connor Tribe alongside Archie, Bridgette, Caleb, Danny, Hayden, Jae, Maddison, Nicko, and Octavia. This first challenge was a scavenger hunt. Each tribe was given an item every half hour (at:00 and:30). Before the challenge got underway it was announced that both tribes would be going to tribal council. For this challenge, Jess was not able to score any points meaning that he did not receive individual immunity for the upcoming tribal council. Heading into tribal council it was very clear that Octavia’s inactivity in the challenge and the tribal chat had made her the clear vote. Octavia was voted out at tribal council with a 9(Octavia)-1(Bridgette) vote. For the next challenge, each tribe mate had to complete three different types of puzzles; a match game, a sliding puzzle, and a jigsaw puzzle. The tribe that has the fastest average time will win immunity. Jess completed this challenge in 1:14:33. With an average time of 33:50 the Connor Tribe was not able to beat the Evan Tribe’s time of 31:37 meaning that they would be heading to tribal council. Before heading into tribal Jess went and checked with the rest of her tribe on who to vote and she was hearing a couple of different names. She heard Jae and Caleb. Little did Jess know that Caleb was throwing her name out there due to her time on the challenge. In the end, Jess and the majority of the tribe voted for Caleb eliminating him with a 7(Caleb)-2(Jess)-1(Hayden, Octavia’s Suspension Vote).

For the 3rd challenge “For Forever” each tribe mate had to watch a video from a famous YouTuber and voice teacher Hannah Bayles as she listens to the YouTube videos of the 4 Evans singing For Forever in 4-part harmony. They had to answer 10 questions on the video. The tribe that got the most correct answers would win. If there is a tie then it would be broken by the average time of each tribe. Jess scored a 9/10 in 19:12. The Connor Tribe earned a score of 67/80 which was enough to beat the Evan Tribe’s score of 53/80 meaning they wouldn’t be going to tribal council. For the 4th challenge “Sincerely, Me”, the castaways were asked to complete a connections game. There are 5 rounds and 4 groups in each round. The only tricky thing is that they won’t find out if they are correct until the results are announced. You earn credit for each group that is 100% correct. Each grid is worth 4 points meaning the maximum amount of points that can be earned is 20. The tribe with the best score will win immunity. Time is only taken into account as a tiebreaker. Jess scored a 9/20 with a time of 19:12. With Nicko not being able to play this immunity challenge it looked pretty clear that the Connor Tribe was going to be going to tribal council. This prediction came true when the Connor Tribe scored 80/160 which was not enough to beat the Evan Tribe’s score of 105/160. Going into the vote Jess thought her performance in the challenge made her the obvious vote. Little did she know that Archie not completing the challenge made him a target. When the votes were revealed Arcie was eliminated with a vote of 7(Archie)-1(Jess)-1(Jae, Caleb’s Suspension Vote).

After Archie was voted out it was announced that the Evan and Connor Tribes would be no more and that there would now be three tribes, Connor 2.0, Jared., and Alana. The Alana would be Bridgette, Brandon, Danny, Apollo, and Jae. The Jared tribe would be JessTV, Cashout, Jess, Hayden, and Curly. This means the Connor 2.0 tribe would be Anna, Elk, Maddison, Nicko, and Taylor. After the tribal expansion from two tribes to three tribes it was announced that all tribes would attend tribal council meaning that each tribe would have an individual immunity idol that one member would win from each tribe. For the 5th immunity challenge “Requiem” the castaways were given 6 riddles to complete. The riddles will help you get a code to help you escape the challenge. The player with the fastest time from each tribe will win immunity. Jess completed this challenge in 5:03. Unfortunately that was not enough to earn her immunity for this tribal council. Based on the results of the challenge Jared will take 1st tribal meaning whoever gets voted out will get 15th place, Alana will get 2nd tribal meaning whoever gets voted out will get 14th place, and Connor 2.0 will be last tribal and the person voted out will get 13th place. Due to inactivity, it was pretty clear that the vote was going to be Hayden or Jess. When the votes were read Jess was voted out with a vote of 4(Jess)-1(Hayden)-1(JessTV, Alex’s Suspension Vote. Before leaving the game as a part of the ongoing Suspension Twist Jess got to cast one extra vote before she left. She cast her Suspension Vote for Hayden which will be revealed the next time they attend tribal council.
