Rick Devens secured his spot in the final phase by winning Part 2 of the final HOH. Devens weighed his options, caught between alliance ties and the threat of sitting next to a strategic powerhouse. Meanwhile, Drew Campbell leaned on his social strategy and passion for the game, hoping his resume would impress the jury.
