Shawn's zombie thing wasn't a plot. It was a plotdevice within his Jasmineplot, like Sugar's pageant thing or Jasmine's claustrophobia. He really just had one plot in the entire season. But I do admit it was the main focus. Nevertheless if you would take it out it would change very little about the rest of the season, only the finale. Dave had mainly Sky, and little subplots with Leonard and Ella but those where pretty insignificant. Samey was definitely the most important character the first 5 episodes of the season. But then she got eliminated, we got 8 episodes without her and she had zero influence on anything in those 8 episodes. Scarlett and Max also pretty much shared one plotline, I love them both very much. But again if you would take them out it would really only have influence on episode 10. They pretty much only interacted with each other and didn't do much that was important the other episodes, besides being comedy relief.

Sugar had three major plotlines. Conflict with Ella, alliance with Sky and crush on Leonard. She insisted to put him in the most important place for the challenge which caused their team to loose and arguably Leonard's elimination, he is also referred to several times throughout the season. Her fart joke with Beardo is one of the key elements that explain his elimination, cause I think it was the first time they showed the team getting annoyed with him. The only episodes where she wasn't important to the plot where episodes 10 and 13. She had the most interactions out of anyone. She was used in the Skave plot in episode 9, she was used in the Rodney "plot" and twin plot despite not even being on their team. In the Jashawn plot by eliminating Jasmine. I think that Topher (and arguably Scarlett) are the only characters she didn't have significant interactions with.
