Lea "Sarge" Masters brought literal military command to Vanuatu — an Army drill sergeant who became the natural leader of the men's Lopevi tribe, barking the camp into shape and winning an individual immunity once the game went solo. Authoritative and respected, he looked like a power player in a season built around a men-versus-women divide.
But the women's alliance proved tighter and savvier than the men ever organized to counter, and they picked the guys off one by one — Sarge included, in ninth. A strong leader outflanked by a better-coordinated enemy.
