There was good news and bad news for Davie Rickenbacker on the season finale ofSurvivor: David vs. Goliath.
The bad news was he was voted out first in the episode, coming in sixth place overall.
The good news is that he immediately became the best dressed jury member…well, ever.

I wasnt 100 percent sure that Nick wasnt in on it, so I was reading everyones faces.
And then the second part is: I said that to light a fire mainly under Nicks ass.
Like, These Goliaths are lying to you, dude.
I need you to kick it into third gear, fourth gear, whatever the saying is.
And I need you to bring home this win.
And win all of those immunity wins.
Is that what off-island Davie looks like or what?Thats 100 percent off-island Davie!
Because you know, you saw me in the reunion show.
I got to give credit to Chalk Mark Custom Clothing.
They made me a custom-made suit.
Ive always been a dapper person.
My fraternity, were known for being really smooth.
Thats Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated.
And that was the twirling of the stick.
That was the distraction.
Its something Ive learned with them.
Weve just been really smooth, suave fellows.
And thats where I learned to get that swag.
I would have been able to work that jury.
But I was out there making alliances.
I had a very close alliance with Kara.
Very close alliance with Angelina.
Very close alliance with Carl.
But youre saying you wanted to be sitting next to him at the end.Exactly.
I mean, I changed my mind.
I wavered day by day.
And people will think, Davie, youre crazy because you would have lost immediately against Christian.
And of course he could have argued that, Well, maybe that was my move.
And getting Christian here, that was a great move.
Now, Im sure Christian may have gotten one or two votes.
But I think I could have taken it home against him.
And I think that Im to blame for us losing the numbers.
And I would pull Gabby aside and tell her, Carl is going to just do what he does.
Okay, I need to know what you thought about Angelinas whole weird fake idol move.
Because the whole reason she was doing it was for the jury.
And I looked at the jury and you guys did not look impressed.Yeah.
What did you make of that whole thing?I see why she did it.
She wasnt a big challenge person.
She hadnt really done too much other than the rice negotiation.
So she needed some things on her resume.
I dont know if thats a good thing or a bad thing.
but Im so indifferent to that fake idol play.
It kind of just made her painted as villain.
But the thing about me is, I like villains!
Villains have more fun.
You know, #DevilishDavie.
I liked the move as a fan because it was funny.
But as a jury member, it waivers either way.
You know, indifferent.
You made your vote for Nick last spring.
Youve watched the season now play back on TV.
You stand by the vote?Oh yeah, 100 percent.
Or how close me and Christian were.
And I do understand a certain story has to be told.
And me and Nick are basically best friends.
Our alliance name was Team Dick.
And thats our names together: Davie and Nick.
Me and Nick, we hang out and were going to Slam Town next month.
I had no sense whatsoever of who your closest alliance members were.Yeah, it was frustrating.
It was 100 percent frustrating.
Well, how are these guys his closest allies if he hasnt said a word to them?
I think it did get better post-merge but it was just really frustrating to watch.
I could see you definitely getting that call asking you to come back.
Whatever the right answer is.Yeah, okay.
Im a single man.
I dont have any kids.
Of course, you know, Ive got my immediate family, but my parents are good.
I just didnt have anyone that I was fighting for other than me and my dog, Rubio.
