Colton Cumbie, the villainous One World castaway who returned to rehabilitate his image, quit Survivor. Again.
During last night’s show we watched events led up to an anti-climatic exit by the widely disliked player after deciding he didn’t want to play with his tribe anymore. Jeff Probst seemed to immediately jump on the idea and pushed Colton to leave. Clearly Jeff didn’t want him there anymore than we did.
Perhaps the most interesting thing we learned from the exchange between Jeff and Colton was that Colton faked his medical emergency to get out of One World. At the time Colton suggested he had the symptoms of appendicitis, but that was not true. Jeff offers Colton the opportunity to own that situation, but of course Colton denies it and says there was something wrong with him, even if it wasn’t his appendix.
Jeff announces “we brought a quitter back, and we got a quitter again.” At this point Colton ran over to his boyfriend Caleb for a hug. Jeff tells Colton to grab his things, but to keep his buff as the urn fire is an honor only for real players. And with that, Colton is gone from Survivor. I doubt many viewers will miss him for a moment.
Watch as Colton throws away his chance at a million dollar prize and hurts his team by diminishing their numbers:
