"I work with kids who lie to me, so I know" — Alicia Rosa's whole game in one cocky line. The special-ed teacher was the loudmouth muscle of One World's all-women alliance, never met a confrontation she didn't enjoy, and she spent her merge nights doing the dirty work of the Pagonging, riding behind Kim Spradlin as the women erased the men one by one. She even bullied poor Christina Cha into the dirt for weeks, which felt great right up until it didn't.
Here's the tell on her whole season: at the final six, Kim walked over, told Alicia that harmless old Tarzan was secretly the real mastermind, and Alicia bought it and helped vote the last man out 5-1. That's the relationship in a nutshell — Alicia thought she was running things; Kim was running Alicia. The second the men were gone and the enforcer had no one left to point at, Kim cut her loose, sending Alicia out fifth on finale night before going on to win 7-2-0. She won herself an individual immunity and made the merge louder than anyone, but a number is all she ever really was to the person actually playing the season.
