For a young model stuck on the bottom of Timbira, Sierra Reed sure lived rent-free in Coach Wade's head. The self-styled Dragon Slayer needed a villain for his never-ending campfire epics, and he cast Sierra as the nemesis — which mostly meant she spent the back half of Tocantins eating votes she kept finding ways to dodge. Week after week her name went up; week after week she scratched out one more day.
Then she got her shot at him. At camp she lit into Coach to his face, calling out the tall tales and half-truths until his credibility was in tatters — easily her best moment out there. But he won immunity right when he needed it, so JT and Stephen, the Jalapao guys running the merge, just turned the necklace-less target onto Sierra instead. She went out seventh, voted off 4-2-1 as the third juror, still shaking her head at Coach on the walk to the bench. She outlasted half the people who'd written her off early, and got the last word on the loudest man in the game before he sent her packing.
