‘Survivor’ Season 49: Who Was Eliminated in Episode 2’s Disaster Tribe?

The latest developments in “Survivor” Season 49 have sparked considerable attention, particularly regarding the Kele tribe. After two episodes, this tribe has been labeled as a disaster following their ongoing struggles.

Episode 2 Highlights

In the most recent episode, the Kele tribe faced a significant defeat in the immunity challenge against the Hina tribe. Despite being given a head start, the Kele tribe lost after navigating an obstacle course while carrying coconuts. Jawan Pitts, a member of the Uli tribe, chose not to place a disadvantage on Kele out of sympathy, as they had not yet secured a win.

Tribal Council Outcomes

The Kele tribe’s misfortunes culminated in a tribal council, where they had to confront the results of their poor performance. Following a blindsiding of Nicole Mazullo in the previous episode, the Kele tribe’s numbers dwindled from five to four after this latest vote.

Who Was Eliminated?

Kimberly ‘Annie’ Davis, a 49-year-old musician from Portland, Oregon, became the second contestant voted out of the season. In a 4-1 decision, Davis was ousted by her tribemates. Initially confident in her control over the vote, she expected to eliminate Sophi Balerdi, a Miami entrepreneur, instead of herself.

  • Vote Breakdown: 4 votes for Annie, 1 vote for Sophi
  • Key Players: Alex Moore, whom Davis saw as a trusted ally, played a significant role in her blindside.

Despite the betrayal, Davis took the elimination graciously, expressing pride in her former tribemates. “I thought I was on top, driving, being the puppetmaster, and I was the puppet,” she reflected in her exit interview.
