Caroline showed her gameplay with her subtle yet operative moves. Tagged as “the Silencer”, she moved through the game without drawing too much attention to her planning. Being tagged as one of the most intelligent, she was able to form alliances without being under the spotlight. Alongside Caroline, Andy too made his mark in the game, with his strategy to secure her jury vote.
