Survivor[]
Brook was placed on the Lopevi tribe, an all-male tribe that was immediately divided by physical ability. Brook, along with John Kenney, John Palyok, and Brady Finta were seen as the strongest members of Lopevi, which lead them to join forces in an alliance to keep the strong members around. Brady, however, sought his own personal vendetta against Rory Freeman. With Chris Daugherty, a physically weaker member of Lopevi, thinking his head was on the chopping block for performing poorly in the first Immunity Challenge which Lopevi lost, he gathered the 'older men' in the Fat Five Alliance consisting of himself, Rory, Lea Masters, Chad Crittenden, and Travis Sampson to vote off the younger members as a way to keep themselves strong once the game became individual. With this motive in mind, Brook was seen as the most threatening member of Lopevi and was voted out 5-3-1.
