Unplugged! - "Drunken-Bray Award"

AWARDS UNPLUGGED: Where we take the Summer 2008 awards & break 'em down to "Tribe" references so you can see what each award refers to, then the defining moment that resulted in a character receiving this award.

Drunken-Bray Award

Through the run of "The Tribe," Bray was usually the steady one, the one you counted on in a crisis. Whatever he felt, he generally kept it to himself & stayed strong for his friends. Then came Season-3 ... Trudy & a very pregnant Amber disappear. Everything Bray does to find them yields nothing. So what does he do? Our boy loses it. He goes walkabout. He winds up at a bar, drunk to the gills, hitting on every waitress or single girl in the place. He gets thrown out of the bar & is found by the Mozzies on the street, who kick the crap outa him. This is about as low as we've ever seen our hero. He's just in self-destruct mode.

Definitely reminded us of RIO. Rio's got it all. He's the power czar in Fort River since he found a way to get the hydroelectric power back on line. This guy wants for nothing ... so what does he do? He fights with the only friend he's really got (that would be Jenna) then proceeds to the nearest pub to drink, laugh, flirt & generally pretend nothing's wrong to anybody who'll listen. We think it can only get worse before it hopefully starts to get better.
