7. Lauren Beck

Vokai has a strong collective at the top of the food chain, and Lauren is on top of the tribe’s many groups. However, it’s those tight connections that have seen some within Lairo groups align her with others for immediate targeting, as she’s been deemed a threat by Missy if she and Tommy can connect and run the table at the merge.

Well, we’ve reached the merge in Survivor: Island of the Idols, so now it’s time for Lauren to (potentially) shine! She’s guarded in alliances run by women, and Vokai has the numbers heading into the merge, so I don’t think she’s as immediate of a threat of actually going home. She’s already worked with Janet, Kellee and Tommy to take out big threats, and now revenge is on the table.

Nobody has an idol at this point in the game, so we should have a round or two of uninterrupted plans (barring individual immunity wins). With that in mind, Lauren can find herself working with a number of different groups to take out others to further the games of herself and others while bigger targets lie in front of her.
