Sam

***Sam*** is a contestant from *Survivor: Myanmar*. Sam entered the game believing that his physical skills would be very useful to his tribe, and that they would want to keep him around in the game because he would help them win the challenges. However, after losing both the first reward challenge and the first immunity challenge, Sam's poor attitude and bluntness showed around camp, getting on the nerves of all of his fellow tribemates, and causing him to be voted out of the tribe unanimously.

### Myanmar

**Tribe Designation:**
Pyin Sa

Sam started off his journey in *Myanmar* on a terribly bad foot when his tribe's loss in the opening reward challenge caused him to spiral into a terrible mood which would last for the entirety of Day 1. He snapped at multiple members of the tribe, and a few of his tribemates began creating bonds over their dislike of his actions. His hot-headed behavior spread across the entire tribe, causing their shelter to remain very unfinished by the end of the first day.

On Day 2, Camryn attempted to give him a second chance despite being one of the members of the tribe he snapped at the previous day, and Sam promised to Camryn that he would have a completely different attitude. He ended up keeping his promise; he apologized to people that he snapped at the previous day and promised to work very hard to get the shelter built. The rest of Pyin Sa believed that Sam was indeed starting to redeem himself, but remained apprehensive that Sam could return to his old ways if they lost the following immunity challenge.

When, sure enough, the Pyin Sa Tribe lost the Day 3 immunity challenge and was faced with their first tribal council, Sam didn't get upset like before. Instead, he came up with the idea to take Camryn out of the game due to being most of the reason Pyin Sa lost immunity, despite her previous attempts to give him a second chance. Camryn, who was previously a part of the group of people who were strongly considering targeting Isabella, caught wind of this information, and managed to convince the others to vote against Sam. At tribal council, Sam was very open about his eagerness to eliminate Camryn, going so far as to even stand up on his chair and beg to the whole tribe to take her out. Nobody wanted to eliminate Camryn, and those who considered writing Isabella's name down before changed their mind by the time it was time to vote, and ultimately, Sam was unanimously voted out of the game.
