Genevieve was by and far my favourite character of the season. With Dale, the ultimate likable guy, winning season one, I really wanted to have a villainous player take the crown this time and Gen did not disappoint. On La Quinte, she was basically a free agent. She hopped on board the Claudia blindside and then the Lilli/Luke split vote plan but at the Double Tribal Council, she was stuck in the swing position between Michael and Kayden but sent Kayden home as she felt his eagerness to make moves would come back to bite her.

Once Daniele and Milo joined the tribe, things got a heck of a lot more interesting. Due to Milo being stuck on Exile for the two episodes following the mutiny, there was nobody holding Daniele back and she made it instantly clear to Genevieve that she did not like her due to her still being somewhat jealous of the Gen/Milo relationship even though Milo/Daniele had made up. With Daniele after her, Genevieve made sure the target was firmly on Daniele's back and used her connection with Milo to turn him against his own showmance in an amazing Tribal Council.

At the merge, Genevieve was once again back in a power position and was quick to jump ships to join up with her Exile Alliance with Yiota/Chelsea but had reservations about flipping once she found out Hannah, who did not like Gen, also wanted to flip. She still sided with them, however, and sent Jullian home. As time went on, Genevieve began to see that Chelsea had so much power with Yiota, Reece and Hannah following her blindly. She again considered flipping on them at the Michael vote but it wasn't until the Final Nine where she made her move. While Reece's plan to send Gloria home was enticing, Gen realised that Gloria was already on the outer of the Estere group and instead decided to target Hannah, partially because they had bad blood but mostly because Hannah was loyal to Chelsea to a fault. Using her connection with Milo, she was able to convince the outsiders to follow her plan which was successful, sending her biggest enemy out of the game.

By this point, many people saw Genevieve's true colours emerge and while Chelsea and co. were extremely mad with Gen, she did enough damage control to get them back on her side once the outsiders turned on her at the Final 8. At the Final 7, however, the whole tribe turned on both her and Milo and due to Samuel revealing the fact that Milo had an idol, the votes were split. Worried for her safety, Gen managed to convince Milo to play his idol on her (despite the fact that she had an idol herself) and he ended up Braidening himself. And while it seemed as though she was dead meat at the impromptu vote, she played an idol of her own, shocking everyone.

After being left out of the loop at the Chelsea vote and almost going home at the Final 4, it looked as though she was losing her footing in the game which made for a perfect battle between her and Yiota at the FTC. Yiota played a conservative UTR game and remained in power until the very end, while Genevieve played a rollercoaster of a game full of great moves but also pissed many people off. Samuel and Gloria respected the way Genevieve played the game to win while Milo gave her a brutal speech about how she was a despicable, heartless human being that deserved nothing but a punch in the face. She had a reasonable FTC performance, nowhere as good as Yiota's, but it was enough to secure the votes to land her what I hoped to be a controversial win.

This was really long WHOOPS XD
