Appearance
It is up to the player to decide what this Handsome Stranger looks like. He wears a orange jacket with a dark blue shirt underneath and black jeans.

Your Character
If you decide to read his journal in chapter 12, you get to see the events that have transpired thus far in the competition from his point of view. He admits that he shouldnt have flirted with you. At least not before officially being announced that he was back on the show. However, he states that there was something about you...And he simply couldn't help himself. If you snuck off to the beach in chapter 1, he writes about that part too, and goes on about how the next thing he knew he was giving you game tips left and right! He goes onto say that he doesn't know how he was supposed to resist the smile on our faces... He reveals that in less than a day of meeting you and he was already smitten. He explains in his journal entry that early in the competition, it was easy to ignore his feeling for you. To pretend like they didn't matter, or that he was confused or something along those lines. All that went out the window when the first Group Date happened. If you chose to want to renact the Jack and Rose scene from Titantic, he writes in his journal that he thought it was obviously a producer's idea. Simply because he doesn't think anyone would think of something so cute and romantic on their own. But even believing this to be true, he writes that he still stepped up behind you and put his hand on your waist.... He goes onto to say that in this exact moment is when he knew that like the Titantic, he was sunk.

He writes about how he really must be a goner writing all those corny lines. He goes onto say how you made moments that the season prior were tedious fun to be around. He points out having to reshoots the dance for the salsa date as one example.... He says that he hasn't laughed that hard on the show since... ever. He admits that Omar will have plenty to say about not taking advantage of the cameras, but in the moment, he just didn't care about any of that. What was worth it, was seeing the smile on your face. If you spent some time together in the Dream Suite... He writes about that too! He writes about getting lost in your eyes, and amits that it's sappy as hell. He goes onto talk about your elimination, and how his heart felt like it was breaking in two. He writes in his journal entry, how with each step you took, he felt more and more hopeless. It is revealed that as soon as you dissapeared inside the beach house, he turned to the other contestants and angrily demanded to know who voted you out. In the last page of his journal entry on you, he writes how he misses you like crazy, and that house feels so empty without you. He admits that it's taking everything in him not to throw the competition right now so that two of you can be together in the Jury House. He vows to win the competition for you, as he doesn't want to see the look of dissapointment in your face, if he were to get eliminated on purpose.

Carson Stewart
In Chapter 8, the Handsome Stranger tells Your Character that while he doesn't have anything against the guy, Carson was much different in Season 9. All he seemed to care back then was smiling for the cameras. So seeing him go off-script at the dance challenge, has made him realize that there's more to him than it seems.

Beautiful Contestant
If the player chooses to watch the footage of the week Your Character was off in the Jury House some things are revealed in Chapter 13. One of the things being that at some point in the week the Beautiful Contestant asked him point blank if he nominated Your Character for elimination, to which he tells her that he didn't nominate nor eliminate you. He confesses to her that You were the only person in the house he could talk to. As a result, Your Character remarks how he and the Beautiful Contestant didn't take your elimination particularly well. But she believes at least one person is lying because that is what everyone is saying.
