Usually getting a nickname on Survivor is a sign you've made it far in to the competition – but that was not the case for contestant Mark Caruso.

After losing his duel against Christine, Caruso, 48, became the second contestant eliminated from Survivor: South Pacific, but not before his cuddly disposition got him the nickname "Papa Bear."

The retired NYPD detective, 48, spoke to PEOPLE after his elimination and explained what it was like on Redemption Island, how his ally Jim was the reason for his demise, and all about his aspirations to do commercials for Dunkin' Donuts.
