Castaway
Karishma Patel
A lawyer who spent the game on the bottom yet kept surviving — and voided seven votes with an idol before finally falling at eighth.
Karishma Patel, a personal-injury lawyer, often felt isolated from Lairo's voting blocs and clashed with tribemates, yet kept surviving as others were targeted first. She found a hidden idol around Day 25.
Her signature moment came at the final nine, where she played that idol to void seven votes cast against her, sending Elizabeth Beisel home instead. With the idol spent and her social game thin, she was voted out 5-3 at the final eight and voted for Tommy.
Pulled from the urn — every vote ever cast against Karishma, and how often Karishma read the night right.
