Survivor: Africa
Day 1, Ogden held the tribe's map while on their way to camp. She then made a crucial mistake by leading Boran in a wrong direction, wasting valuable time. Adding insult to injury, she collapsed after the rival Samburu tribe won the first Immunity Challenge. Back at camp, tribemate Clarence Black offered her a can of beans for them to share. Much to the ire of the other six tribe members, they castigated Clarence for smuggling their food supply without their consent, making him a target to be eliminated. But at their first Tribal Council, Clarence mistake in judgment was overlooked by Diane's weak state, causing the latter's demise in a 6-2 vote.
