Oscar clearly knows how to repurpose items – he’ll be the superior forager and helpful when finding items to make a raft. And his attitude will motivate getting unstuck ASAP.

Elmo is the ONLY choice.

Grover: too anxious

Cookie Monster: would go through cookie withdrawal & who even knows what his sober personality is

Oscar: anyone who chooses Oscar should be on a watchlist https://t.co/dmKLvZszKg
