Survivor
Erin Collins was placed on the Sook Jai tribe as a result of being the last woman left. Erin was shocked but humbled by the experience. Sook Jai won challenges early on but the tribe was divided due to how to prioritized. Erin agreed with building shelter. When Sook Jai lost their first Immunity Challenge, she joined in voting out Jed Hildebrand for not contributing to shelter and eventually stopped contributing to camp life. Sook Jai rebound from its loss and won the next two challenges. Unfortunately, Sook Jai lost the next Immunity Challenges and Erin helped eliminate the outsiders, Stephanie Dill and Robb Zbacnik.
At the final ten, Sook Jai arrived with Chuay Gahn to what thought to be a merge. Sook Jai moved to the Chuay Gahn camp which had a natural shelter. Sook Jai noticed that Shii Ann Huang was bonding too well with the former Chuay Gahns. At the Immunity Challenge, Erin was shocked when she learned that the tribes had not merged. Sook Jai lost the Immunity Challenge again and Erin voted for Shii Ann for her scheming. Unfortunately, Sook Jai lost the next Immunity Challenge and Erin was unanimously voted off in a heart wrenching Tribal Council. Despite not making the merge, Erin became the first member of the jury.
At Final Tribal Council, Erin asked why the other finalist does not deserve to win. Brian Heidik said that Clay Jordan didn't put in enough effort. Clay said that Brian felt that he was the leader and wanted to know everything. Erin decided to cast her vote to Clay over Brian. The reason being that she felt that Clay was more honest than Brian. However, Clay would lose to Brian in a 4-3 vote.
