The story

Lydia Meredith was the self-styled 'little sister' of Survivor 42 — a waitress and performer whose bubbly energy made her an easy person to keep around. She rode that likability into the merge.

But when the game opened up, she was caught without the numbers and voted out as the merge boot in twelfth, just short of the deep run she'd hoped for.
