Sammy Norris on Outlast Season 2: Journey explored
Trending
During Outlast Season 2, Episode 1, competitors were divided into various teams. Per the show’s format, participants are divided into four camps: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta. Drew Haas chose Sammy, Drake Vliem, and Emily Johnston to be in the Bravo camp.
The team members were given specific survival items, including a bow with eight arrows, two tarps, a knife, a flint, a flashlight, a small pot, a paracord, and binoculars.
The second episode featured a clash between the Alpha and Bravo teams. Alphe team member Bayo, who wanted to lead his camp, somehow had issues within his group. Later in the episode, both Alpha and Bravo camps suffered the consequences, as Bayo was later voted out.
The fourth episode featured Sammy’s Bravo camp with a new member, Bri. The group now had five members. With more participants, each competitor's chances of survival for the entire camp seemed greater.
Later, the sixth episode of the survival show featured the Bravo team’s Emily eliminating herself from the game. She did this after she went to find more resources, ran into cold water, and got extremely tired.
After Emily’s elimination, the remaining Bravo teammates, including Bri, Drew, Drake, and Sammy, explored their options about what to do next. Additionally, Bri was not feeling well, so the teammates were concerned about that, too.
Later, on the sixth episode of Outlast Season 2, Bri’s health took a turn, and she underwent nausea and fatigue. She had been drinking contaminated water for the past few days. Unfortunately, she was forced to eliminate herself from the show as she needed medical help.
After Bri voluntarily ended her journey on the show, the Bravo team got even smaller, with Drake, Drew, and Sammy.
Despite facing many challenges and multiple self-eliminations, the Bravo team seemed determined to move forward. Sammy and the rest of the teammates focused on building the raft. They wanted to be the first to reach the boats when the helicopter would arrive.
Outlast Season 2 Episode 6 ended with a major cliffhanger: The team that reaches the boat first will have a massive advantage in the upcoming days. Bravo team’s Drew got on the raft, while Alpha team’s Joseph was on their team’s raft—both paddling towards the boat, which the latter reached first.
