User:Stryzzar/Alejandro and Tyler

This article focuses on the interactions between Alejandro and Tyler.

Overview
Tyler is one of the many people who Alejandro immediately viewed as a potential alliance member, and a means to further himself in the game. He held little to no respect for Tyler as a human, disdained by his poor physical coordination, his stupidity and lack of any helpful skills. However he still saw his susceptibility for manipulation, and decides to keep him around until he had outlives his usefulness. Tyler on the other hand holds no obvious negative views towards Alejandro, and obeys his every instruction (even against his better judgement). To date he is one of the few characters to not have developed hatred towards Alejandro (never having the chance to discover his true nature) and is one of the few characters still considered to be his friend.

Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 1
When the cast first exit the bus, Tyler and Ezekiel both fall to the ground. Alejandro helps them up, but Tyler mistakes this for a gesture of affection and quickly proclaims that he liked girls. Later on Alejandro flirts with Lindsay, to which a jealous Tyler attempts to perform a handstand to impress her. However he fails and crashes down in front of them, to which Alejandro unsympathetically looks down on.

After Alejandro discovers Tyler was on his team (along with Noah and Owen), he appears in confessional where he repetitively swears in Spanish and expresses frustration at the incompetence of his team. Amongst his angry rants he calls Tyler an idiot and states he's incompetent.

In the confessional Alejandro states he didn't need Tyler for his brains, effectively calling him stupid, and adds he wasn't sure what he needed Tyler for, but would figure it out in due time.
