Dave Johnson was placed on the [[Battle of the Sexes|all-male]] [[Tambaqui]] tribe. When the men arrived at camp, Dave gave a speech that this tribe is "freakin men of Pride" and was the favorites to win. He added that if they lost to the [[Jaburu]] women, they will never heard the end of it. The men effectively made camp life tolerable. At the first challenge of the season, the men seemed to have won the challenge. However, [[Ryan Aiken]] and [[Daniel Lue]] was stumbled on the balance beam, allowing the women to surpass the men. This was made worst when Dave and [[Rob Cesternino]] botched up the puzzle. The women won immunity. After the challenge, Dave made a speech about how the men should be more humble. Rob could tell that Dave was going play an honorable game, which works great for Rob as he was going to lie and cheat to get ahead. Dave liked Ryan and decided to vote out Daniel because of the latter's attitude. The rest of the tribe voted against either Ryan or [[Roger Sexton]]. Rob voted against Ryan, sending him home. The women won the next challenge as well, earning them fish bait. Thankfully, the men won immunity.
 
   
 
==Survivor==
Dave talked to [[Matthew von Ertfelda]] about who to send home. Dave still wanted Daniel to go. The next reward challenge, Dave asked [[Christy Smith]] for Shampoo. Christy said no, which cost Tambaqui reward. Tambaqui also lost immunity. Despite his lobbying, Daniel was sent home unanimously. The tribe had a hard time catching fish. Thankfully, Matthew managed to catch some. Tambaqui won reward in the form of a fridge filled with Coco-Cola. They also won immunity and every fish that they caught in the challenge.

The next tree mail was for its youngest member to go on a night of fun and wine. As Dave was youngest, he was one to go. He met up with the youngest, [[Jenna Morasca]]. They ate, bath, and talked about each other tribes. The next morning after eating some more, they was asked to assign new tribes. Dave immediately snatched up Jenna's best friend, [[Heidi Strobel]]. He also picked [[Butch Lockley]], Christy, and Roger. [[Jeanne Hebert]] was placed on Tambaqui by default as she was the last women left. The group bonded well. However, Jaburu won immunity again. Using the information obtained from Jenna, Dave targeted Jaburu's outsider Jeanne. Dave convinced Heidi to vote against Jeanne, sending her home. Christy asked why was Jeanne eliminated in send of her. Roger said that Jeanne was the weakest link in the new tribe, which Dave believe was opposite from the truth. At the reward challenge, Dave only went once against Matthew but won. Tambaqui won the challenge and Spices, seasoning and a large fruit basket. Tambaqui also won immunity.

Dave Johnson was placed on the all-male Tambaqui tribe. When the men arrived at camp, Dave gave a speech that this tribe was "freakin men of Pride" and were the favorites to win. He added that if they lost to the Jaburu women, they would never heard the end of it. The men effectively made camp life tolerable. At the first challenge of the season, the men seemed to have won the challenge. However, Ryan Aiken and Daniel Lue stumbled on the balance beam, allowing the women to surpass the men. This was made worse when Dave and Rob Cesternino botched up the puzzle, allowing the women to win immunity. After the challenge, Dave made a speech about how the men should be more humble. Rob could tell that Dave was going to play an honorable game, which works great for Rob as he was going to lie and cheat to get ahead. Dave liked Ryan and decided to vote out Daniel because of the latter's attitude. The rest of the tribe voted against either Ryan or Roger Sexton. Rob voted against Ryan, sending him home. The women won the next challenge as well, earning them fish bait, though the men won the next Immunity Challenge.

Dave talked to Matthew von Ertfelda about who to send home. Dave still wanted Daniel to go. The next Reward Challenge, Dave asked Christy Smith for shampoo. Christy said no, which cost Tambaqui reward. Tambaqui also lost immunity. Despite his lobbying, Daniel was sent home unanimously. The tribe had a hard time catching fish. Thankfully, Matthew managed to catch some. Tambaqui won reward in the form of a fridge filled with Coca-Cola products. They also won immunity and every fish that they caught in the challenge.

The next Tree Mail instructed the tribe to send its youngest member to go on a night of fun and wine. As Dave was the youngest, he was the one to go for Tambaqui. He met up with the youngest for Jaburu, Jenna Morasca, where they ate, bathed, and talked about each other tribes. The next morning after eating some more, they were asked to assign new tribes. Dave immediately snatched up Jenna's best friend, Heidi Strobel. He also picked Butch Lockley, Christy, and Roger. Jeanne Hebert was placed on Tambaqui by default as she was the last women left. The group bonded well, though Jaburu won immunity again. Using the information obtained from Jenna, Dave targeted Jaburu's outsider Jeanne. Dave convinced Heidi to vote against Jeanne, sending her home. When Christy asked why Jeanne was eliminated instead of her, Roger said that Jeanne was the weakest link in the new tribe, which Dave believe was opposite from the truth. At the Reward Challenge, Dave only went once against Matthew but won. Tambaqui won the challenge and spices, seasoning, and a large fruit basket, and would later also won immunity.
