History[]
Formation[]
On Day 3, after losing the Immunity Challenge, the entire tribe seemed set on voting out Ryan Shoulders or Lillian Morris for their perceived lack of strength, but after Nicole Delma was revealed to have been targeting Tijuana Bradley, the tribe voted her out unanimously. This left a solid majority alliance of four: Andrew, Ryno, Osten and Tijuana, against Ryan and Lillian, with Darrah orbiting on the outside.
Picking off the Weak Links[]
Following their second consecutive immunity loss, Skinny Ryan was voted out, despite protests from his only ally Lillian and Osten asking to be voted out. But after Day 12, following their third immunity loss, questions were raised regarding the advantages of keeping Lillian for her work ethic around camp, compared to Darrah. However, in the end, Lillian was voted out in a 5-1 unanimous vote, leaving the tribe with a new majority alliance of 5.
The Outcasts[]
On Day 19, Morgan competed in an Immunity Challenge against Drake and The Outcasts and ended up in last throughout the entire challenge. After losing to The Outcasts, the tribe went back to camp, where Osten made it clear that he wanted to go home that night, and unlike the previous instances of him requesting this, the tribe informed Jeff Probst that they would honor his request, and Osten went home without a vote, becoming the series' first quitter. At The Outcasts' Tribal Council, Lillian was voted back into the game, and drew the Morgan buff at random.
Upon returning to the Morgan camp, Savage asked Lillian whether or not she would be sticking with the Morgan tribe. Disappointed by the lack of a clear answer, it became clear to Savage that Lillian would be flipping to Drake at the merge.
Lillian's Revenge[]
After the merge, Jon Dalton recognised Lillian as being the weak link in the Morgan chain, and went to her to attempt to convince her to flip. He succeeded, and Lillian joined the Drake tribe in voting out Andrew Savage in a 6-4 vote, with the four remaining Morgan votes heading towards Fairplay.
At the following Tribal Council, Ryno was voted out unanimously by Rupert, Fairplay, Sandra, Christa, Burton and Lillian, along with Darrah and Tijuana, as he was seen as a physical threat, and the next leader of the Morgans after Savage. He became the first member of the jury.
One Last Gasp[]
At the final eight, the duo of Fairplay and Burton decided to target Rupert for his strength and likability, and used the free votes of Lillian and the remaining two members of the Morgans to take out Rupert in a 5-2-1 vote, with Rupert and Christa voting for Darrah, and Sandra casting a stray vote for Fairplay.
After Rupert was eliminated, it looked like Darrah and Tijuana would go with Burton, Lillian and Jon until the final five, but Sandra convinced Tijuana and Darrah to join her and Christa in voting out Burton instead, followed by Tijuana informing Jon that Burton would be going. This angered Jon, who instead made a deal with Sandra and Christa to vote out Tijuana; Darrah and Tijuana voted against Burton, while everyone else voted against Tijuana.
The Last of the Morgans[]
Following Tijuana's exit, Darrah was left on a tribe with Sandra, Christa, Burton, Lillian and Jon, but won immunity, saving herself from being targeted. The duo of Fairplay and Jon again turned to Darrah as a stray vote to be utilized, and the three of them along with Lillian voted out Christa 4-2, with Lillian receiving the stray two votes from Christa and Sandra.
Darrah then won immunity a second time, and joined up with Lillian and Sandra to blindside Burton after he made the mistake of leaving the three women together back at camp by taking Jon on reward.
However, at the final four, the surprise participation of the jury in a trivia challenge prevented Darrah from winning immunity, and she was voted out unanimously for being a general social and physical threat.
