James Thomas, Jr.

• The Ace
• Badass
• Born Winner: AND HOW!
• The Charmer
• Determinator
• Mr. Fanservice

• Fun with Acronyms
• The Hero
• Ho Yay: With Stephen.
• Keet
• Kid Appeal Character

• Badass Bookworm
• Determinator: Managed to worm himself, JT and Taj into the Final 4, despite being down 3-6 at the merge.
• Genius Bruiser: In Real Life he's actually a pretty big guy, and his intelligence goes without saying.

• Ho Yay: With J.T.
• Nerds Are Sexy
• Nerd Glasses
• Odd Friendship: Him and J.T.
• Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Him and J.T

Erinn Lobdell

• All of the Other Reindeer: Nearly all of the Timbiras hated her and most of them didn't bother hiding it, she would've been the second Timbira booted if Jerry hadn't gotten sick, and if Timbira had gone to a third tribal council, she would've definitely been sent packing. Which is ironic because in interviews, she comes off as friendly and polite.
• Brainy Brunette
• Deadpan Snarker: Especially where Coach is concerned - after one of his Cloudcuckoolander moments:

"Who is this jackass?" "I think Coach really truly wants to be this, like, Survivor Man. I would not be surprised if when this game is all said and done, Coach said, "Gotcha! I'm an accountant! I've never left Nebraska.""

• Foil: To Coach, most certainly.
• Genki Girl
• Graceful Loser
• Horrible Judge of Character: Her first impression of Tyson is that he's "a good guy to have around."
• Meganekko
• Nice Girl
• Plucky Girl
• The Quisling
• Tall, Dark and Bishoujo

• Cool Big Sis
• Genius Bruiser
• Graceful Loser

• Sassy Black Woman
• Shocking Elimination
• Team Mom
• Worthy Opponent: Was voted out over Erinn because of this.

• Badass
  • Badass Long Hair
  • Badass Teacher
• Bunny Ears Lawyer
• Butt Monkey: Probst all but openly mocked him at every opportunity.
• Cloudcuckoolander
• Creator's Pet: But not to the level of Russell Hantz or Rob, and he later became Rescued from the Scrappy Heap in Heroes vs. Villains and South Pacific.
• Designated Hero: Different than prior incarnations in Survivor, because he designated himself as The Hero.
• Fake Ultimate Hero: Bordering on The Load
• Honor Before Reason
• Ho Yay: With Tyson.
• Miles Gloriosus: Some see him as this.
