Teresa Cooper, Keko (received 7 votes on Day 3) - 7 votes for Teresa, 1 vote for Richard

"You know, I tried my best, but what are you gonna do when the tribe's already decided to make up their mind? I know I'm not the weakest one out here, and I know I shouldn't have gone before Richard. I really think that Gretchen made a huge mistake when she decided to keep him. (pause) I really wish I hadn't have been the first one voted out, if for no reason that I just don't think the tribe got a chance to see what I was really capable of. But I gave it my best shot. And it had to be somebody. I guess deep down, I just wish that somebody hadn't been me."



Ethan Zohn, Keko (received 4 votes on Day 6) - 4 votes for Ethan, 3 votes for Richard

"(laughing) Well, I really didn't expect my speech to work out that well. I was as shocked as anybdoy that Richard actually got three votes. (laughing again) But I don't know what else I could have done. I tried my best tonight. I went in there figuring I had nothing to lose, so why not take a chance? I still think those guys are morons for wanting to get rid of me. But hey, it's not my tribe. Never was in the first place. So now they can go lose all the challenges, and keep going to Tribal Council, and sleep happily in the knowledge that I didn't win, because they just didn't let me. Because honestly, that's probably the reason I'm sitting here talking to you."



Susan Hawk, Ahi (received 5 votes in the revote on Day 9) - 5 votes for Sue, 1 vote for Lex (4-4 in the first vote)

"Well, here I am. I bet you're all expecting some big speech about how I hate Lex and whoever switched their vote, but I aint gonna go into that. It was fun while it lasted. I'm proud of everything I done out here, and I'm honored that Mark asked me to come back and play again in Hawaii. This game is a blast, and I hope I get to do it again. The only thing I'm sorry about is that I didn't get to stick it to Richard (she starts to laugh) but I'm sure someone will. Aint no way he'll win this thing. So that's it for me, see you around. See you real soon, Rich."



Richard Hatch, Keko (received 5 votes on Day 12) - 5 votes for Richard, 1 vote for Kathy

"Well, we all knew it would happen sooner or later. Ol' Richie got the boot. Yeah yeah, I know, yay for the good guys. Go team! (he laughs) All-Stars was fun while it lasted, but we all knew I was a goner from the start. They were never going to let me win. But I don't care. After all, they all got their big moment. They got to vote the big man off. Good for them. Glad I could help. I'm sure now they'll be talking about it for days. (he pauses for a long time, while he tries to think of something more profound to say. But he can't come up with much. This is an awkward way to be talking.) You know, I know I should say I have no regrets, but I sure as hell regret not having another million in my pocket. Maybe next time! (he laughs, then stands up and leaves)."



Lex van den Berghe, Ahi (received 4 votes on Day 15) - 4 votes for Lex, 3 votes for Rob

Well, I suppose the lesson to be learned here is 'Don't be the leader of the Ahi Tribe.' (he chuckles to himself) To be honest, I suppose it was really just a matter of time. Those guys-- Rob, Vecepia, Sue, hell, maybe even John-- had it in for me since the start. And I don't know why. All I do know is that I feel like I've been in a bunker for the past two weeks. I feel like I've been in a war. Because if it wasn't Sue, it was Rob. If it wasn't Rob, it was John. It was open season on me since the start, and I'll never know why. (he lets out one big long, mournful sign) Am I angry that I was betrayed? Of course. It's something you'll never forget. But I have to say that life will probably be a whole lot stressful now that I'm out of the game. So maybe that's good. Who knows? (he shrugs.) It's not always fun."



Colby Donaldson, Keko (received 3 votes on Day 18) - 3 votes for Colby, 2 votes for Gretchen

"I don't hold hold any hard feeling for those guys back there. That's a pretty special group of people, and I probably would have voted for me too. (he laughs). You know, even though I had to take the fall tonight, you have to have a little bit of respect for them wanting to protect Mike. I can't say it was my favorite decision in the world, but I understand why they did it. Well... at least... I hope I understand why they did it. Who knows? Maybe Gretchen just thought I was a big ol' pain in the butt and she wanted me gone. (he laughs again, with that big toothy Texas smile.) In any case, I'm sorry I won't be around to see the big Keko comeback, and I'm sorry I had to leave the game before the merge. But it's awfully hard to feel bad for myself when I got further than Rich. Even if I were to die tomorrow, I could say I beat Hatch."
