Survivor: Marquesas
Peter Harkey was placed on the Maraamu tribe. Although a hard worker, his personality rubbed people the wrong way. Rob Mariano described him as a "fruit loop." He relaxed with Sean Rector, joking about wanting to build a hot tub. Maraamu lost the first challenge because they dropped their torch in the water. Before the tribe's first tribal council, Peter gave everyone a speech about voting politics. He made it clear that he was gunning for Patricia Jackson for being the physically weakest. The tribe was annoyed by his demeanor and the speech turned things on Peter. The bowling alley manager became the first person to be sent home in a 5-2-1 vote.
