Summary
The sixteen contestants were divided into two tribes of eight: Tagi and Pagong. Both tribes fared equally in challenges, but differed in organizational structure. Pagong was dominated by the younger, more carefree members, whereas four contestants on Tagi formed an alliance, choosing to vote as a bloc to ensure their safety. When ten players remained -- five from each tribe -- the tribes merged into one, named Rattana. The alliance strategy proved to be successful, and the four took advantage of the other contestants' lack of voting strategy to gain dominance. There was dissension in the alliance as Kelly was deemed untrustworthy, however she won four consecutive immunity challenges and was ineligible for elimination.
When only the four alliance members remained, they were forced to turn on each other. The vote initially ended in a draw; close allies Richard and Rudy voted for Susan, and Susan and Kelly voted for Richard. On the revote, Kelly decided to switch her vote and Susan was eliminated. After winning the final immunity challenge, Kelly decided to eliminate Rudy because she believed she had a better chance against Richard. At the final tribal council, Susan lambasted Kelly for switching her vote and proclaimed her support for Richard. Richard's strategic prowess and leadership was valued over Kelly's impressive challenge performance, and the jury awarded him the title of Sole Survivor in a vote of 4-3.

Famous quotes containing the word summary:
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
