Mario Total Drama Island
Episode Three
Stayin Awake, Stayin Awake
Donkey Kong is standing on the dock of shame. He's standing directly in the sunlight and his fur looks as if it's glowing.
"We're on air." Lakitu whispers to Donkey Kong.
"Oh." Donkey Kong begins the recap. "Last time on Mario Total Drama Island, twenty-six campers arrived and learned that they'd be spending their entire summer at this crusty old summer camp. The campers were faced with their first challenge, jumping off a cliff into shark infested waters. And while most campers took the plunge a few were forced to wear the dreaded chicken hat. At the campfire ceremony, it all came down to two campers; Janice and Koops. Koops seemed very useless to his team due to his fears and his allergies. While, Janice didn't jump because her sisters didn't jump. It wasn't the smartest decision but in the end it was Janice who got the boot. Thus proving that you shouldn't share a brain with anyone else because it could result in elimination. How will Janette and Janelle deal in the next challenge without Janice? Who will be voted off this week? In the most shocking elimination of the season yet. Find out tonight on Mario Total Drama Island."
The opening sequence begins
Peach, Wendy, Goombella, Bow, Mona, and Pauline are all fast asleep. Rosalina is meditating in the middle of the floor with a few cockroaches crawling all over her. She opens her eyes in fear.
"I feel as if something bad will happen within the next five minutes!" Rosalina shouts in fear.
Peach opens her eyes for a second. "Girl, just shut up. We're all trying to sleep." She responds as she rolls over and goes back to sleep.
Donkey Kong sets off a loud horn that wakes up all the campers. Peach tries to get up, but she immediately bangs her head on the top bunk.
"Ouch!" Peach yells as she rubs her head.
"I tried to warn you guys!" Rosalina says she gets off the floor and slowly rubs the cockroaches off of her.
"Why are they waking us up so dang early? I get angry when I don't get enough sleep! My team already knows what happens when I get angry!" Peach shouts as she looks around the cabin for her bat. "Dang, Mario still has my bat! I think I brought some golf clubs with me."
Bow pulls off her sleeping mask and places it on a nightstand right near her bottom bunk which is across from Peach's. "Ugh. I can't wait to see you walk the dock of shame." Bow complains as she steps out of the bed.
All the campers are awake, showered, dressed, and standing in front of Donkey Kong near their cabins.
"The first part of your next challenge begins in one minute. The first part is a twenty kilometer run around the lake on the campus. You guys should try to win this challenge because the reward is helpful in the second part of the challenge." Donkey Kong explains.
Bowser's stomach starts growling. "Wait what about breakfast?" He asks pointing to his stomach.
"Breakfast will be served after the first part of today's challenge." Donkey Kong answers.
"That's not fair. I can't run on an empty stomach." Mona states.
"I can't run. Period." Zip Toad whispers to Mona.
"I am not running." Bow says as she crosses her arms.
"You're what?" Peach questions Bow in anger.
"Not again!" Wendy says.
"Lady, just complete the challenge this time." Bootler tells Bow calmly while she has her arms crossed.
"But, this requires effort." Bow complains.
"Newsflash! All the challenges require effort!" Mona states.
"Ugh." Bow says.
"Man where are the paparazzi for me? They should be here by now! I mean I'm the great and almighty Zip Toad and I'm about to do a hot run. It's like a normal run except I'm the one running." Zip Toad states.
"How fascinating." Peach replies sardonically.
"Girl, you know you wish you were me. I have everything." Zip Toad says with a smile to show off his bleached teeth.
"Except friends…" Peach mumbles under her breath.
"Yeah, you shouldn't be talking, you should be running." Donkey Kong says.
"I really don't feel like running…" Wario says as he looks down. "But I really want breakfast…"
"In five…four… three… two… Go!" Donkey Kong says as he shoots a shotgun in the sky.
Many of the campers begin running. Goombella, Bow, Pianta, Zip Toad, Mona, Rosalina, Daisy, and Shy Guy all decide to walk. Bowser runs for a few yards until he falls on the ground and rubs his stomach. Toadette, Yoshi, and Prince Mush have a wide lead over everyone.
"Ok, I have to persevere. I gotta do what Janice expects me to do!" Janelle says to herself as she tries to find a steady pace.
"Stop talking to yourself you weirdo!" Peach says to Janelle as she runs passed her. Janelle ignores her and continues running.
Bowser rubs his stomach in pain as if he's giving birth. "There's something seriously wrong with my stomach. I think I'm going to die! Why must it end like this?" Bowser cries. Suddenly Bowser lets out a loud fart which causes nearby trees to catch on fire and starts a slight forest fire. Smokey Bear walks through the woods and stares at a match and then at Bowser. "Oh. Never mind, nothing is wrong." Bowser says to himself as he gets up and starts running slowly.
Yoshi and Toadette are racing with Prince Mush some distance behind them.
"You better just give up now! I am not losing to no girl!" Yoshi says to Toadette as he continues running.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Toadette questions Yoshi.
"Whatever you want it to mean." Yoshi answers.
"Oh. You are so going down!" Toadette says.
"WAIT UP!" Prince Mush screams to Toadette as he begins panting. He takes a few deep breaths before screaming again. "WAIT FOR ME!"
In Confessional
Prince Mush - "I was hoping to run with Toadette so we could chat together. But, she's like way faster than me. Ugh, I swear that girl can beat me at everything. I just gotta beat her at something! It's not that I'm competitive, I just want to impress her."
Donkey Kong, Zess T, and Bootler are all sitting in the main lodge. Bootler is drinking a small cup of tea. Zess T is cooking mashed potatoes. Donkey Kong is sitting down waiting for some of the campers to arrive.
"Oh, I forgot to tell them about the special traps I set up!" Donkey Kong says.
"Whatever. It'll make them run faster!" Zess T states as she throws butter into the creamy mashed potatoes she's making.
"None of those traps will harm the campers, right?" Bootler asks in fear. Zess T and Donkey Kong both shrug.
Toadette and Yoshi are still racing. Yoshi is just a little ahead of Toadette.
"You're gonna lose!" Yoshi states with a laugh.
"I'm not even running at full speed." Toadette replies.
"Liar."
Toadette stops for a second and takes a deep breath. She starts running extremely fast and easily passes Yoshi. Yoshi just gasps when Toadette passes him.
"I'm unstoppable." Toadette yells back at Yoshi. Suddenly a large fireball shoots out of nowhere which startles Toadette. "What the?" All around Toadette bursts into flames from the small wildfire Bowser's fart started. "This seems familiar…" Toadette says to herself. A large tree nearby catches on fire and then falls right in front of Toadette. "Ok where have I seen this before?" Toadette asks herself as she thinks for a second.
She just shrugs and runs around the tree that fell.
"She's getting away…" Yoshi complains as he also runs around the flaming tree on the ground.
Pauline is walking very slowly and looks annoyed. "Ugh, this walk seems endless." Pauline complains as she steps on a snare that leaves her dangling from a tree by her left ankle. "Ugh. Someone help me."
Bowser slowly runs up to Pauline and notices her dangling as he laughs for a second. "Oh how'd that happen?"
"Can you help me down?" Pauline orders.
"I gotta keep running." Bowser says as he slowly runs passed her.
"No. Wait! Please help me! Don't make me beg!"
Bowser grabs a sharp rock of the ground. "Ugh. Fine."
"Thank you!" Pauline says as Bowser throws the sharp rock at her and it hits her forehead which leaves a dark mark. "You imbecile! Come back here and untie this rope this instant!"
"Second time's a charm." Bowser says while holding another sharp rock. Bowser throws the rock at the rope and it cuts it. Pauline falls on the ground and hits her head as she angrily stares at Bowser.
"It's about time! Now I don't need from anyone else. Ever." Pauline yells as she runs a little farther and gets caught in another snare. "UGH!"
Toadette reaches the main lodge and looks out of breath. She keeps panting as she pulls out a random pink inhaler and uses it for a second.
"That…" Takes a few deep breaths, "first challenge…" Uses her inhaler once more, " was nothing!" Toadette says as she uses her inhaler again.
Yoshi reaches the main lodge right after Toadette and gives her an evil glare.
"Toadette is really fast!" Yoshi says as he takes a deep breath. "Yoshi!"
Prince Mush reaches the main lodge and looks less tired than the two campers that arrived there before him.
"That run made me hungry! Where's breakfast?" Prince Mush asks as he smells some type of food.
"You have to wait until everyone gets here!" Zess T states.
"That's not really fair! Yoshi!" Yoshi says with his arms crossed.
Boo, Wendy, Mario, Dry Bones, and Janette all reach the main lodge. Boo immediately sits down to breathe. Wendy puts on another coat of purple lipstick.
"Wow I'm dying inside." Boo tells the other campers then he chuckles.
"I have no feeling in my legs!" Janette says as she sits next to Boo.
"Want me to rub them for you?" Dry Bones asks Janette.
"No, you pervert!" Janette says as she gets up and sits on the other end of the table away from Dry Bones.
"The offer is still on the table." Dry Bones says following with a laugh.
"I'm too pretty for all this running." Wendy says as she aligns her pink bow.
"Wendy, you're not that pretty." Mario states.
"What did you just say?" Wendy says as she steps closer to Mario.
"You're ugly. That's what he's trying to say. You're unattractive. You're repulsive. Whatever gets through that tiny brain of yours." Dry Bones says as Mario backs away from Wendy.
Janette walks over to Dry Bones with her arms crossed.
"You just couldn't stay away from me." Dry Bones says with a slight smile.
"No." Janette says. "Dry Bones, you don't have to be so rude."
"I'll be as rude as I wanna be" Dry Bones says. Wendy smacks his head right off of his body.
"Don't ever call me ugly again!" Wendy says as she puts on some more purple lipstick.
"Janette, can you put my head back on?" Dry Bones asks calmly.
"Um, okay?" Janette answers as she grabs his head while looking away. She places his head on backwards because she's creeped out.
"Um, sweetheart you put my head on backwards." Dry Bones says.
"Don't call me sweetheart." Janette says with a silent giggle "And it looks funny this way."
"Fix it." Dry Bones says seriously.
Janette shrugs and turns Dry Bones' head around. Wario and Janelle both reach the main lodge.
"Janette! We both finished the challenge!" Janelle squeals.
"It doesn't feel the same without Janice here." Janette says while looking down for a second.
"Yeah, I really miss her. I just don't want to start crying again." Janelle states as she kicks the ground.
"She's gone. Move on. If you guys keep moping around sure as heck you'll be the next ones leaving the island." Dry Bones states.
"We're not even moping." Janelle says
"I'm so tired. I'm about to fall asleep right here. My empty stomach is keeping me awake. Where's breakfast?" Wario states.
"You must wait until everyone gets here." Donkey Kong explains.
"I might pass out before then!" Wario says.
Luigi, Peach, Birdo, and Waluigi arrive. Luigi sits down right next to Boo.
"I'm even more angry after that run." Peach screams as she pushes down one of the tables.
"You don't even know what angry is!" Birdo yells to Peach.
"Oh. I'll show you angry!" Peach shouts back.
"Girls, can't we all just get along? Aren't we all creatures that are alive?" Waluigi says calmly.
"Shut up hippie!" Birdo roars.
"Dang girls. You both need to take chill pills for reals." Luigi says.
Koops runs in the main lodge along with Pianta.
"My sinuses cleared up from that run! I can breathe!" Koops says.
"Whoo it's way too early in the morning for me to be running like that. I need to sit down." Pianta says as he sits right on Luigi without even looking. "Whoo. That's a load off!"
"Get off of me fatty!" Luigi yells while getting crushed because Pianta is sitting on him, "I can't breathe!"
"Oh, sorry. Didn't see you there." Pianta states as he quickly gets off of Luigi.
"Excuses, excuses." Luigi says as he walks away.
Rosalina and Shy Guy reach the main lodge.
"Oh dear. I'm feeling tired. Energies seem all whacked up when I'm tired." Rosalina states as she slowly sits down.
"Yeah, girl, you on some good drugs." Shy Guy says.
"No comment." Rosalina says as she slams her face into the table.
"Yeah. I want what she's having." Shy Guy laughs.
Daisy, Goombella, Mona, and Bow all reach the main lodge.
"Well that was a long walk." Mona says as she sits across from Boo and pulls out a mirror.
"That fire like scared the heck out of me. Like for real." Goombella says.
"I have all my energy since I didn't run. Look at all of you looking all tired." Daisy says while looking at all of the tired campers in the room.
Pauline and Bowser both arrive.
"Did we win?" Bowser asks Donkey Kong.
"Those stupid traps annoyed the hell out of me." Pauline complains as she sits down.
Donkey Kong looks around at all of the campers that arrived. "And no Zip Toad. So the Fat Fireflowers are the winners of the first challenge." Donkey Kong says as everyone on the Fat Fireflowers cheer. "Here's your prize." Donkey Kong throws a large bag of coffee to Koops. "This will help you guys greatly."
"Where the heck is Zip Toad?" Peach says angrily.
"Well we can't have breakfast until he's here." The host states with a laugh.
"Can you please go find him. I'm gonna die right here if I don't get some food!" Wario says while laying on the ground.
"Fine. Always ask the host to do everything." Donkey Kong complains as he leaves the main lodge to go find Zip Toad.
Zip Toad is in the woods getting swarmed by a bunch of paparazzi all around him. Zip Toad is doing random poses while answering questions from the paparazzi.
"Yeah." Zip Toad flips his hair back. "Make sure you get me at all angles." He says as he continues posing.
"Zip Toad! You have a challenge to finish!" Donkey Kong shouts as he squeezes himself through all the paparazzi.
"Donkey Kong! Pose with me!" Zip Toad states as Donkey Kong shrugs and starts smiling and posing.
"Wait! What am I doing? I keep forgetting about the challenge. Come on Zip Toad, you're holding everything up." Donkey Kong says.
"One second." The famous mushroom says as he continues posing.
Donkey Kong gets annoyed of Zip Toad, so he grabs him by his shaggy blonde hair and pulls him towards the main lodge.
"Eez up dawg, not the hair. Take it easy." Zip Toad yells.
Donkey Kong reaches the main lodge and throws Zip Toad into a seat.
"Where the heck were you?" Mona asks Zip Toad.
"I was getting noticed like usual. It's not my fault I'm too famous and hot for words" Zip Toad states as he notices paparazzi out the window still taking pictures of him.
"Well you cost our team the challenge!" Mona yelled.
Zip Toad ignores her and continues posing for the paparazzi.
"Well then." Donkey Kong says with a smile as he rubs his hands together. "Now who's hungry?"
"I'm so hungry I could eat an ape!" Wario states as Donkey Kong awkwardly stares at him for a second.
"Today you guys get a feast. A large buffet of all your favorite foods." Donkey Kong says as he opens up two red curtains to show the large buffet. Zess T places a pot of mashed potatoes next to the corn and smiles. "Enjoy."
"Wait. So Zess T can cook?" Mario asks Donkey Kong.
"Of course I can." Zess T says following with a laugh.
In Confessional
Wendy - "A large buffet? /Puts on another layer of purple lipstick/ There has to be some sort of trick up DK's sleeve.
Koops - "Why do we need coffee? I hate coffee."
All the campers are now full. Some are laying on the ground and others have their bellies sticking out. They all look very tired.
"I don't think I could eat another bite." Peach says as she drops a small peach tart and falls on the ground next to Wario.
"Words can't describe how tired I am now." Wario says as he struggles to eat a brownie that's in his hand.
"Now, who's ready for the second part of the challenge?" Donkey Kong says with a large grin.
"Wait. Eating wasn't the second part?" Wendy asks as she rubs her belly that is currently sticking out from all the food she just ate.
"We're all way to tired to do anything else." Pianta says as he rubs his eyes.
"I don't have the energy to move." Peach says while laying on the floor. "And that says a lot considering Wario doesn't smell very pleasant."
"I don't think anyone does." Bow adds as she yawns.
"That's perfect. Because, your next challenge is an awake-a-thon!" Donkey Kong announces as all the campers gasp.
"You say what now?" Wendy says.
"Heh heh I have a huge advantage over you losers! I'm a ghost. Ghosts don't need slee-" Boo says as he immediately falls asleep on the ground. He starts drooling and snoring loudly as all the other campers stare at him for a second.
"Well, Boo's out." Donkey Kong laughs.
"This is gonna be the hardest challenge ever!" Daisy says as she looks down.
"Don't worry we can do dis togetha" Luigi says while trying to comfort Daisy.
"Aw, you're really sweet!" Daisy says with a smile.
In Confessional
Koops - "Of course. An awake-a-thon. The coffee reward makes sense now. Too bad I can't stay awake for over eighteen hours." /yawns/
All the campers, excluding Boo, are sitting outside near the bonfire. It's currently daytime with the sun shining on the campers keeping most of them awake. Everyone still looks tired with bags under their eyes.
"We are almost twelve hours in and twenty-four campers are still awake with Boo being the only one asleep." Donkey Kong says to the viewers.
Boo walks over to the other campers and it's obvious he just woke up. "DK, what am I supposed to do since I'm already out?" The adorable ghost asks.
Donkey Kong shrugs. "You could try to get players from the other team to fall asleep." He says.
"Cool. I'll go get my banjo!" Boo says as he rushes back towards the cabins.
"He has a banjo?" Donkey Kong whispers to Zess T.
In Confessional
Pauline - "If I want superiority in this competition, I need an alliance. I need a few people so our votes would impact who goes home. But who on my team is dumb enough to join my alliance? Hmm."
Rosalina places a small purple mat on a flat rock.
"I guess I should start meditating, so the mother of space will give me energy to move on." The blonde space girl says.
"Mother of Space?" Waluigi asks Rosalina.
"Yes. Mother of Space." Rosalina says as she sits down on the mat.
"Do I have to ask the Mother of Space to sit next to you? I'm really bored." Waluigi states as he sits on a flat rock right next to the one Rosalina is on.
"You don't want sit next to me, I'm really boring when I meditate. Plus, you probably think I'm weird." Rosalina says as she looks down for a second.
"I don't think you're weird."
Rosalina smiles, "Ok, go ahead sit next to me."
"I'll meditate with you." Waluigi says as he crosses his legs just like Rosalina is doing but he struggles for a second until he gets it.
"Um, are you mocking me? Are you toying with my emotions?" Rosalina asks the hippie as he looks shocked.
"No, no. It's just I really like you. I mean not like you know like like but just like as a friend but maybe like um never mind." Waluigi says as he looks the other direction and tries to cover his face.
Rosalina just smiles and laughs. "You sounded just like Goombella."
In Confessional
Pauline - "I guess the creepy space girl and the hippie could be part of my alliance. But, I need more people." /Rubs her chin/
Yoshi has changed into an eighties outfit and has a large purple afro on. He's skating around while doing some funky disco moves. He changes the voice on his translator to a high pitch voice as he starts singing. "And we're stayin awake, stayin awake. Ah, ha, ha, ha. Stayin awake, stayin awake. Ah, ha, ha, ha. Stayin awake."
"Dude, how on earth do you like have the energy to dance?" Goombella asks Yoshi with a smile.
"Because I'm stayin awake, stayin awake." Yoshi sings to her.
"You're like hilarious." Goombella says as she gets up and starts dancing to Yoshi's singing.
In Confessional
Pauline - "Yes. Yoshi and Goombella. /grins evilly/ They'll be perfect."
"Yoshi, Goombella, Space girl, Hippie, come here I need to talk to you guys! " Pauline says as Yoshi and Goombella dance over to Pauline. Yoshi can't control gis skates and accidentally knocks Pauline on the ground. Rosalina and Waluigi both stop meditating and walk over to Pauline. Rosalina helps Pauline up. The dark-haired girl just dusts herself off before speaking. "All of you take a seat."
"Can you make this quick. I feel negative energy creeping up on me." Rosalina says. "If I don't meditate bad things will happen to me!"
"I'll just get to the point. I want the four of you to be in an alliance with me. We'll all vote together and eventually we'll annihilate the competition. I want you guys to be in the final five with me." Pauline explains calmly.
"What happens when we reach the final five?" Rosalina asks being not so sure about joining this alliance.
"Everyone is for themselves but the chances of you guys winning will be a lot greater." Pauline answers.
"Sure, but I'm only joining this because you're pretty." Yoshi says.
"Ohmigosh. I'll get like so much screen time if I make it to the final five! Of course I'll like join your alliance." Goombella squeals.
"Um, sure. I guess I trust you." Waluigi says as he looks over at Rosalina.
"I don't know about this." Rosalina says because she doesn't fully trust Pauline for some reason.
"It's strategy, nothing more to it. C'mon Rosalina, I really want to bring you to the final five with me!" Pauline says with a smile.
"Fine. I guess." Rosalina says while looking questionable.
"I'm done now. Go back to what you were doing. I'll tell you guys if I have a strategy to eliminate some of the competitors!" Pauline adds as she walks away.
"Whoo hoo! Back to dancing. Who's ready to go to funky town?" Yoshi says as he throws his hands up.
"Ooohh. I am!" Goombella says as they both walk away to start dancing.
Birdo and Koops are both sitting on tree stumps looking bored as ever. Koops still has the large bag of coffee with him.
"I don't know how much longer I can stay awake." Birdo states as she looks at her phone to check the time.
"Want some coffee?" Koops asks as he holds up the large bag of coffee.
Birdo quickly looks up. "No. I can't stand coffee and that's not even brewed and there's no cream or sugar. That's disgusting."
"Your loss." Koops says as he digs his hand in the coffee and scoops it out. He places it in his mouth and it makes a loud crunching sound while he chews it. "It may taste disgusting but it keeps me awake."
Daisy and Luigi and Luigi are sitting on the ground. Daisy yawns loudly and stretches to keep herself awake, but it's failing.
"I can't stay awake any longer." Daisy says to Luigi as she wipes her tired eyes.
"C'mon push through." Luigi says trying to encourage Daisy.
"I'll keep trying. It's getting difficult." Daisy replies.
Mona turns around and notices Peach smashing a tree with her golf clubs. Mona walks over to her.
"What exactly are you doing?" Mona asks.
"Smashing the heck out of this tree." Peach says as the tree falls over.
"Peach, you're just draining out all your energy." Mona states.
"Nonsense. I need to get all this rage and stress out somehow." Peach says as she continues smashing the tree.
"Stress is what keeps people awake. You can use that to your advantage to win this challenge!" Mona exclaims.
"Nah. I'd rather destroy this tree real quick!" Peach says as she tears the large tree in half with her bare hands.
"Someone's not a tree hugger…" Mona says with a laugh.
"At least I'm not attacking a person!" Peach justifies.
"DK, can I go fishing?" Pianta asks in boredom.
"You can fish without going to sleep? That's talent right there. Sure, go right ahead." Donkey Kong says in shock.
"Yes. It's about time I get to fish." Pianta says as he puts on a fishing hat and grabs his fishing rod. He walks over to the dock of shame and casts.
"I give up! I'm going to sleep." Janelle blurts out looking bored as ever.
"Go right ahead, but I'm staying awake because I don't want to go home like Janice." Janette says as she shoots Janelle an evil glare.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Janelle asks.
"I'm just saying that you should have been the one leaving and not her! You were the one that was afraid to jump!" Janette answers.
"I don't appreciate your tone! I thought we were going to work together."
Janette crosses her arms. "I'm just not going to sacrifice my time in the competition for you."
"I don't need you anyway. You know your ex-boyfriend Brandon?"
"What about Brandon?"
"I told him to break up with you for Clarisse." Janelle laughs.
"He was the best boyfriend I ever had! And you knew I hated Clarisse with a passion. I blamed my best friend for our breakup and that practically ruined my life! I had to go to rehab, and almost failed my freshman year!" Janette yells. "Why would you do something that mean to your own sister?"
"I was jealous of your relationship!" Janelle simply replies.
"Everyone is way too tired to listen to you guys argue. Can you do us all a favor and shut up or go to sleep or something?" Dry Bones says to the two mushroom sisters.
"No, because Janette is saying that I should have been the one eliminated." Janelle says as she looks away from Janette.
"Honestly I still believe Koops should have been the one eliminated." Dry Bones confesses.
"I can hear you!" Koops yells.
"But of you two, you were the one that made all three not jump and everyone didn't know your names apart then. They thought Janice was you." Dry Bones says.
"Well, it's not nice to tell someone that they should've been the one eliminated." Janelle states as she looks down again.
"At least she's being real with you. That's all there is to it. This should help you push harder in these challenges."
Janelle stays looking down. "I really should have been the one to leave." She says under her breath.
Dry Bones shakes his head. "Don't go and put yourself down. It's too late the deed is done. It's not your fault Janice was eliminated instead of you."
"Dry Bones, can you do me a favor?" Janelle kindly asks Dry Bones.
"I don't really do favors for people because I don't get crap in return, but what do you need?" Dry Bones answers.
"If we lose this challenge, can you convince everyone on the team to vote me off?" Janelle asks calmly.
Dry Bones shakes his head. "No. I don't do favors like that. Sorry."
"Oh, okay then-" Janelle says as she yawns loudly. "I'm too tired for all this." The blue spotted toad girl falls on the ground.
"I'm with you on that. I can't last any longer." Daisy says as she lays down and falls asleep along with Janelle at the same time.
"Yeesh. Now I'll be bored." Luigi says as he looks over at Mona. "You wanna chat?" He asks with a smile.
"Normally, I'd say no. But I'm really bored. Entertain me." Mona states.
"So… You like nachos?" Luigi asks awkwardly.
"Yeah, you're boring, so I'm going to walk away." Mona says as she gets up and walks away.
Toadette is sitting alone on a tree stump while staring out in the woods at the wildlife and scenery. Prince Mush notices and immediately sits down next to Toadette in high hopes. The pink capped toad girl doesn't even notice he's sitting there.
"Hey. We're gonna be awake for a long time. So you wanna talk?" Prince Mush says with a slight smile.
"One second." Toadette says . Suddenly she pinches her arm. "Ow." She then smiles. "So what do you wanna talk about?"
"Why did you just pinch yourself?" Prince Mush asks.
"It's the only way I can stay awake." Toadette confesses.
"Oh ok." Prince Mush says as he notices bruises all over Toadette's arm. "Wait. Let me see your arm."
"It's nothing." Toadette says as Prince Mush grabs her bruised arm. The pinches caused most of her arm to be a different color.
"This looks bad." The blonde-haired toad exclaims.
"It's nothing! So, can we talk about something else?" Toadette says.
Prince Mush smiles. "Sure. What's your favorite color?"
"Pink. As if it isn't obvious. But not the really girly kind of pink, fuchsia. What's your favorite hobby?"
"Wrestling."Toadette pinches herself again. "Ow. Oh so you're like really strong."
It's now night. A clock shows that the campers have been awake for eighteen hours. Peach, Pianta, and Birdo all fell asleep.
Mushrooms: 10 and Fireflowers: 9
"A lot of campers are still awake, so time to play soft lullabies." Donkey Kong says as he turns on soft lullabies. "And I will read fairytales. There once was a princess named Goombella, and she was so tired she could barely move. She was so sleepy, she slowly dozed off. Her eyes shut slowly as she finally fell asleep."
"I don't know much longer I'll last." Goombella tells Yoshi who is still dancing and singing.
"Try to stay in funky town." Yoshi says as he continues dancing.
"I'm too tired to dance, or even move." Goombella states as she falls on the ground and lays there with her eyes barely open. Yoshi decides to lay right beside her.
"This isn't so bad." Yoshi says. "It could've been a lot worse."
Goombella looks at Yoshi for a second. "Yeah. I guess it could have." Goombella smiles at Yoshi.
Prince Mush and Toadette are still sitting down at the same spot talking. It's obvious that Toadette has pinched herself many more times.
"So, Toadette, what's your favorite food?" Prince Mush asks.
"Uhh, I guess pizza." Toadette answers as she pinches herself yet again. "Ow. Where in the world do you wish to visit someday?"
"Glitzville. It's a wrestler's dream to visit there."
"Aw, that's cool. I want to go there to watch people get their skulls cracked. I mean once the arena opens up in two years.
"What?" Prince Mush laughs.
"I'm kidding."
"Ok, what's your dream job."
Dry Bones and Wendy are sitting on the ground near the bonfire while roasting marshmallows. Boo walks over and sits down with them.
"I'm so bored." Dry Bones says.
"Wanna play my banjo?" Boo asks.
"Why are you still here?" Dry Bones asks Boo.
"My cabin is all lonely without everyone so I thought I mind as well hang out with you guys." Boo replies.
"Please don't make this night longer than it needs to be." Wendy says as she puts on another coat of purple lipstick.
"Are you referring to my banjo?" Boo asks with a smile.
"Yes. I'm already irritable because I haven't had my beauty sleep." Wendy says as she crosses her arms.
Dry Bones laughs. "Funny. Because you never were beautiful."
"I really don't like you." Wendy says to the skeleton angrily as she puts on another coat of purple lipstick.
"Why do you always put on so much lipstick? Is that supposed to make an illusion that you have lips so people think you're female?" Boo asks.
"Shut up!" Wendy says as she turns away.
"Time to play my banjo!" Boo smiles as he starts playing his banjo.
Waluigi and Rosalina are lying on the ground staring at the stars. Rosalina is telling Waluigi the names of many of the stars.
"And what's the name of that star?" Waluigi asks Rosalina as he points to a random star in the sky.
"That one is named Luna." Rosalina answers with a slight smile.
"Cool." Waluigi replies.
"Yeah, I'm getting really really tired. I don't know how much longer I can hold on. " Rosalina says as she wipes her eyes.
"Me too. You're the only reason I'm still awake." Waluigi confesses.
"I don't see why."
"No, seriously."
Rosalina smiles. "Then you are really charming."
Bow is sitting on a tree stump and just finished a large pile of magazines; she throws the last one on the ground.
"Bootler! Go get me some more magazines." Bow demands as she begins ringing her Boo Bell.
"C'mon Lady Bow I'm really tired. Please let me rest." Bootler says as he drags himself over to Bow.
"You're tired? You're freaking tired? I've been awake for over eighteen hours, and I let you have a thirty minute nap! So you shouldn't be complaining! Now go get some more magazines because I'm bored!" Bow says as she continues ringing her Boo Bell.
"Yes Madame." Bootler says softly as he slowly walks away to get Bow more magazines.
Bowser walks over to Bow. "Dang girl. You shouldn't have him stay up all these hours because you have to." He says.
"He didn't run or overeat! It'd be shame for him to be tired now." Bow says as she files her nails.
"He still has to run for you. That takes a lot of energy out of a person. Besides, he's kinda old…" Bowser says.
"No it doesn't. He's just a baby. And old is just a state of mind." Bow says as she grabs one of the magazines she already read and starts reading it again.
Bowser shakes his head. "You know what. Let him rest. I'll take his place for the time being." The large koopa states.
"Are you serious?" Bow asks with a laugh.
Bowser takes a deep breath. "Yeah."
Bootler arrives holding two large cardboard boxes full of magazines for Bow to read. The boxes seem heavy and Bootler tiredly puts them on the ground right near Bow.
"Here are your magazines." Bootler states tiredly.
"Bootler. You can take the rest of night off." Bow says as she grabs one of the magazines out of the box.
Bootler looks at Bow in question. He doesn't trust her because she would never just give him the night off. "Seriously?"
"Yes. Bowser here volunteered to take your place for the time being." Bow says with a loud laugh.
"Go ahead. Get some sleep." Bowser states.
"Thank you sir!" Bootler says to Bowser.
"No problem. You deserve it. It must get stressful working with the devil and all." Bowser says with a grin.
Bow looks up for a second. "I am not the devil." She states.
"You're pretty close to it if you ask me." Dry Bones shouts to her from the bonfire where he along with Wendy and Mario were eavesdropping.
"Stay out of this!" Bow yells as she grabs another magazine out of the box. Bowser just chuckles. "What?"
"You read those dumb teen girl magazines." Bowser laughs.
"They're actually very informative." Bow explains.
"Whatever just call me if you need anything." Bowser says.
"That girl is going to a drive him insane." Mario states with a yawn.
"I'll bet you fifty bucks that Bowser is going to stay sane and stay Bow's butler until she falls asleep!" Dry Bones states.
"Really? I bet you Bowser will quit and most a likely tell a that a snobby bratty Boo off" Mario says as he shakes Dry Bones' hand.
Mona notices Zip Toad is constantly doing different poses even though there is no paparazzi around.
"Why are you still making poses? You act like someone will actually see you." Mona asks the famous toad.
"You never know. Everybody loves me. I can't look bad if someone secretly snags a photo of me." Zip Toad explains.
"Well, you're on a reality show, so at some point they're bound to find an ugly side to you just like everyone else." Mona states.
"I'm not just like everyone else. I'm the best." Zip Toad says.
"Sure, sure." Mona states as she yawns loudly.
Wario, Shy Guy, and Koops all look bored out of their minds. Koops continues eating the coffee expecting it will instantly give him energy.
"Man. I can't smoke because that'll make me fall asleep!" Shy Guy cries.
"I don't know how I managed to stay awake this long." Wario states.
"Yeah. This coffee tastes disgusting." Koops swallows some more out of the big bag but he coughs a few times.
"Isn't caffeine considered a drug or something to some people?" Shy Guy asks Koops in high hopes.
Koops just shrugs. "I guess."
"Gimme some of that coffee. I need drugs!" Shy Guy says as Koops gives him a coffee. Shy Guy shoves the coffee in his mouth. "This tastes like dried up dirt!" He says as he still manages to swallow it.
"You get used to it after a while." Koops says as he takes another scoop of coffee and puts it in his mouth.
"I hate the smell of coffee." Wario states as Koops and Shy Guy both awkwardly stare at him because he likes the smell of garlic.
"Who will fall asleep? How many more fairytales will I read? Will Bow drive Bowser completely insane? Find out when we come back after the break." Donkey Kong says to the viewers.
It's now daytime. A clock shows that the campers have been awake for thirty-six hours. Mona, Zip Toad, Goombella, Mario, Yoshi, Wario, Janette, and Shy Guy all fell asleep.
Mushrooms: 5 and Fireflowers: 6
Rosalina and Waluigi are still lying on the ground. They're staring at the clouds hoping it would rain, so it would keep them awake.
"I can't even blink because I feel as if I shut my eyes I'll fall right asleep." Rosalina tells Waluigi.
"Yikes I know exactly how you feel." Waluigi agrees as he shuts his eyes and falls asleep right there.
"Yeah, I just need something to get my mind off of how tired I am." Rosalina says as a long silence occurs. After about ten seconds Rosalina says, "Waluigi?" She gets up and notices Waluigi asleep as she grabs his hand. "Waluigi, come back! Come back! Waluigi!" She cries as she lays back down on the ground and realizes Waluigi is officially asleep. "Noooooo! Now it's gonna be even more brutal."
Pauline turns and notices Koops is acting very hyper and jittery.
"What is wrong with you?" Pauline asks Koops as she yawns.
"I ate that whole bag of coffee. My mom never lets me near caffeine because she calls it a drug and I feel great! I feel like I can conquer the world. How useless am I now, Dry Bones?" Koops says as Pauline barely understands what he's saying.
"Still pretty useless." Dry Bones answers with a smile.
Toadette and Prince Mush are still talking while sitting is the same spot. Toadette's arms look even darker from her pinches.
"What kind of makeup do you like to wear?" Prince Mush asks Toadette.
"I don't really wear makeup besides eyeliner for special occasions, but only the kind that isn't tested on animals." Toadette answers as she pinches herself again and then looks very nervous. "Um I have a problem."
"What?" Prince Mush asks nervously.
"I think I'm getting immune to my pinching." Toadette says as she continues pinching herself.
Bow is still ordering Bowser to do things while rings her Boo Bell which she is now calling her Bowser Bell.
"Bowser! Go get me some low-fat vanilla ice cream!" Bow orders while ringing her bell loudly.
"Where am I supposed to find low-fat vanilla ice cream?" Bowser asks.
"I dunno, figure it out." Bow answers as she takes out a new magazine and starts answering questions to see what her personality is.
"Ugh. You're so impossible." Bowser says as he walks away towards the kitchen to go find ice cream.
Wendy, Dry Bones, and Luigi are all sitting near the bonfire looking exhausted. Boo is sitting with them.
"I'm about to start a riot because I'm so tired." Wendy thinks out loud.
"Want me to start playing the banjo?" Boo asks as he laughs.
"Oh great." Wendy rolls her eyes. "You're back."
Luigi looks bored as he stands up for a second then falls on the ground in exhaustion. "I give up! I'm going to sleep!" Luigi shouts as he falls asleep.
"That just made me really tired." Wendy says trying not to doze off.
"Then go to sleep." Dry Bones says.
"No. I must win this for my team!" Wendy states as she takes out her purple lipstick and puts another layer on her lips.
A clock shows that the campers have been awake for fifty-four hours. Rosalina and Dry Bones fell asleep.
Mushrooms: 3 and Fireflowers: 4
Toadette and Prince Mush are still sitting in the same spot. Toadette looks like she's about to go insane.
"I have to stay awake somehow and Koops ate all the coffee. What am I going to do?" She says to Prince Mush as she shakes him in frustration.
"Try to calm down?" Prince Mush says as Toadette obviously looks ticked off from what he just said.
In Confessional
Toadette - "Yeah, the thing about me is when I don't get sleep I go insane. I can't give up though. I have to prove my worthiness to my team in every challenge. /pinches herself/ I just don't know how much longer I'll last." /yawns/
Bow - "It is so awesome to have Bowser as my slave. He's worn out. I had him fanning me with a large leaf for two hours straight. /laughs evilly/ I feel empowered.
Wendy is laughing because Dry Bones fell asleep.
"I'm so bored. I'm going to sleep now! At least I lasted longer than the guy I hate!" Wendy states.
Koops looks over at Wendy who's about to fall asleep. "All that caffeine wore off now I'm beyond tired." he states as he yawns.
"Well good luck everyone. See you guys when I wake up." Wendy says as she falls asleep which makes Koops nervous. Koops now thinks he may fall asleep any moment now.
"I can do this. I can win this challenge for my team!" Koops says to himself for motivation.
Bow is still ordering Bowser to get her things. Bowser is tired but he still tries to fulfill her requests knowing that she'll fall asleep at any moment now.
"Bowser! Go get me a funnel cake! You useless being! And make it snappy!" Bow screams as she rings her bell.
Bowser yawns and he realizes he needs sleep. "That's it! I quit! You are impossible to please. I never got one thank you out of that ugly mouth of yours and you're a brat. I don't know how Bootler deals with your attitude you spawn of Satan! I thought I was evil but I was wrong. You are the definition of evil!" He shouts at Bow.
"You're just a terrible butler. That's all that is!" Bow says as she takes out another magazine.
"Me? I'm not the problem! You are!" Bowser screams at Bow which is draining most of his energy.
"Are you getting my funnel cake or not?" Bow asks as Bowser's left eye begins twitching.
"No." Bowser answers as he takes deep breaths.
Bow shrugs and rings her Boo Bell. "Oh Bootler! You're time off is over! Come back here and get me a funnel cake!"
"Go get your own dang funnel cake. The reason you have to eat low-fat ice cream is because you never get up to do anything yourself! And you know what- " Bowser screams as he suddenly falls asleep right in front of Bow. He starts snoring loudly and Bow looks at him in disgust.
A clock shows that the campers have been awake for eighty-six hours.
Mushrooms: 2 and Fireflowers: 3
Donkey Kong wakes up from a nice full night sleep as he walks out and looks at the remaining campers awake. "We're down to the final five already? Wow I thought you guys would last much longer than this. This is pathetic."
"I'm so tired that I feel drunk." Pauline states.
In Confessional
Toadette - "I'm gonna pass out if I don't think of something to keep me awake. /Thinks for a second/ Hmm. I guess slapping myself will do.
Toadette and Prince Mush are still tiredly asking each other questions.
"What is your biggest accomplishment?" Prince Mush asks Toadette.
"Staying awake this long. Just kidding. Probably getting honor roll every time since I was in first grade." Toadette says as she yawns loudly. "Stay…" Toadette says as she slaps her right cheek with her right hand. "A-" She backhand slaps her left cheek. "-wake!" She slaps her right cheek again.
In Confessional
Pauline - /Regarding Toadette/ "The way she has to harm herself just to stay awake is really pathetic. But part of me kind of feels bad for her."
"Toadette, go to sleep." Prince Mush says because he doesn't like watching Toadette harming herself to stay awake.
Toadette's face is now swelled up because she slapped herself too many times. "But I can win this." She states.
"Me and Koops got this. Stop harming yourself. Please." Prince Mush says sweetly to Toadette.
Toadette smiles. "You're really sweet." She kisses Prince Mush's forehead as she falls asleep right near him.
In Confessional
Prince Mush - "Yeah! I'm finally charming her!" /Starts drooling/ "I like her a lot!"
"Ok, who's ready to read the history of Mario games?" Donkey Kong says to the four remaining campers that are awake. He walks behind a small podium and grabs a thick book. He places it on the podium and opens to the middle of the book. "Chapter one."
Donkey Kong starts reading chapter one which bores everyone and makes them all even more tired.
"I can't take this anymore I'll go crazy!" Pauline shouts as she covers her ears.
"This is so boring without Toadette." Prince Mush says.
"I never felt more alive. Caffeine is so weird. It's as if it keeps giving me small bursts of energy and I just want to go crazy." Koops says as he jumps up a few times and starts doing a weird dance. "Whoo! I wanna go skydiving!"
"I'm running out of magazines and I have no one to text. What am I going to do?" Bow complains because Bootler is asleep.
"Go to sleep?" Prince Mush says as he yawns loudly while listening to Donkey Kong still reading the boring book.
"Hahahahahaha…. No." Bow says as she grabs one of the few remaining magazines in the box.
Prince Mush falls asleep in boredom before hearing her response. Bow just laughs and then starts reading her magazine.
"Ugh. It's like he's reading a wikipedia article. So boring." Pauline says.
"Just add in bed after every sentence. Some are actually funny." Koops states as he continues listening.
"I'm too tired to do that…" Pauline closes her eyes for a second then opens them. She then falls asleep.
"Looks like only two people are left. Let me continue reading. The name Mario originated from-" Donkey Kong says Bow finished all her magazines and is rereading them.
"Eyes on the prize. Eyes on the prize. Prizes are good." Koops says to himself while he's shaking.
Bow looks for a second. "I hate to say it, bud, but you're going down."
"I can win this! I know I can. I know I can." Koops keeps repeating to himself to stay awake.
Bow looks up again. "What are you, the little engine that could?"
"Yes. Yes I am." The scared yellow koopa says with a smile.
In Confessional
Koops - "Yeah, um, even if I do lose this challenge. At least I'll have some respect from my teammates like Dry Bones. I made it further than everyone but Bow. That's a pretty great accomplishment if you ask me! Dry Bones should feel ashamed for even wanting me to leave instead of Janice!"
A clock shows that the campers have been awake for one hundred hours.
Mushrooms: 1 and Fireflowers: 1
Donkey Kong is reading the book and he looks bored and tired from reading it. He wasn't expecting this to go on this long.
"Chapter 7... Wow you guys are persistent." Donkey Kong says as he continues reading the boring book.
All the other campers that fell asleep are now standing around cheering for Bow or Koops depending on what team they're on.
"Come on Bow! You can do this!" Mario shouts.
"Koops you better not screw this up!" Shy Guy yells as he crosses his arms. "I'm not playing with you."
"That's not really encouraging." Janelle states.
"So?" Shy Guy replies.
"Can one of you just fall asleep already? This is getting boring." Mona says while annoyed because she fell asleep.
"I like your temper." Wario says as he steps closer to Mona which makes her step away from him.
"Like I said before, I'm out of your league, don't talk to me!" Mona says rudely as she looks away.
"Whatever then." Wario shrugs as he takes out a piece of garlic and takes a bite out of it. "I still have my garlic."
"Feeling tired yet?" Koops says to Bow.
"I've been up for a hundred hours what the heck do you think?" Bow says as she holds her eyes open.
"I know. I'm just messing with you." Koops says as he yawns. "For once, I wish I had insomnia…"
"Come on Koops! You can do this!" Birdo shouts loudly.
"Bow, you can beat him!" Peach shouts trying to be louder than Birdo.
"Koops don't even worry about that brat! We all know you're gonna win!" Birdo shouts trying to be louder than Peach.
"Bow, we all know you're gonna win!" Peach shouts at the top of her lungs which causes her to cough a little.
"I can't handle this any longer." Koops says as he falls on the ground with his eyes still open.
"Koops, please stay awake!" Daisy shouts.
"You're not the only one." Bow says to Koops as she falls on the ground with her eyes open also.
"Bow, just breathe rapidly. It will keep you awake longer!" Pianta shouts as Mona slaps the back of his head.
"Koops heard you too, genius!" Mona says.
Bow begins breathing rapidly which keeps her awake as she turns and notices Koops fast asleep while sucking on his thumb. Bow throws her arms up in joy as she quickly falls asleep.
"And the Poison Mushrooms are the winners of the awake-a-thon! Fat Fireflowers, one of your fiery butts is going home!" Donkey Kong announces.
Most of the Fat Fireflowers are sitting near their cabin discussing who they should vote off.
"Janelle do you still want everyone to vote you off?" Janette asks in fear.
"I deserve it." Janelle says as she looks down.
"I gotta say, Koops, you really earned my respect today." Dry Bones says as he slaps the back of Koops' shell.
"That really means a lot to me…" Koops says tiredly.
"I'm voting off Bowser." Shy Guy announces.
"Why? He's our biggest player. He's useful!" Dry Bones states.
"He was just a puppet to that ghost girl during this challenge. She would've fell asleep if it wasn't for him." Shy Guy says.
"You do have good point, but I think we still need him. We don't have many powerful people on our team." Dry Bones says as he looks at everyone on his team.
"I just want to get this elimination ceremony over with so I can go to sleep." Koops says as he yawns.
In Confessional
Koops - "The blue mushroom girl has my vote /yawns/ I think her name is Janelle. /yawns/ I'm too tired to be thinking."
Shy Guy - "Bowser has my vote!"
All the Fat Fireflowers are sitting on tree stumps around the bonfire while Donkey Kong is standing in front of them again. He's holding a plate with eleven mushrooms on it.
"There are only eleven mushrooms on this plate. One of the campers in front of me will not receive a mushroom and must immediately walk the dock of shame, board the boat of losers, and leave. And they can't come back. Ever. The following campers are safe, Koops." Donkey Kong says.
Koops drags himself up to Donkey Kong and grabs his mushroom. He immediately tumbles on the ground and falls asleep.
"Janette, Luigi, Shy Guy."
They all three slowly walk up and claim their mushrooms.
"Dry Bones, Toadette."
They both walk up together and grab their mushrooms.
"Wario, Prince Mush."
They both walk up and get their mushrooms.
"Birdo and Daisy are safe."
Birdo and Daisy both get up and claim their mushrooms.
"Janelle, Bowser this is the final mushroom of the night. Whoever does not receive this mushroom will be eliminated from the competition, and they can't come back. Ever. I'm not gonna add much… suspense since you're all tired. So the final mushroom goes to Bowser."
Bowser gets up and gets the final mushroom.
"It has been fun guys. Janette please win for me and Janice okay?" Janelle says with a smile.
"I'll try. " Janette responds as she tries hard not to cry.
"Good bye everyone!" Janelle says as she walks down the dock of shame. She gets on the boat of losers and waves as it drifts away.
"Are you gonna be okay?" Toadette asks Janette.
"I'll be fine." Janette said while looking down.
"Lets make a promise that our team won't be the team here next challenge." Birdo says proudly.
"Yeah! And if we do end up here, let's all agree to kick off Koops!" Shy Guy says with a laugh.
"Hey!" Koops says as the camera fades out.

Janelle's Audition:
Janelle's audition starts in her dark blue room with her sitting on her bed. She has posters of many male celebrities on her wall including Zip Toad.
"Uh, hi. I'm Janelle and I'm part of the traveling sisters three. We come as a trio, but we have to each make our own audition. I'm just gonna honestly say I just wanna be on the show for the cute boys. I mean if DK's the host who knows what the contestants will look like." Janelle says as Janice runs in while holding Janette's diary and Janette is chasing her.
"Give that back!" Janette shouts.
"…And I thought he loved me, but I was terribly wrong now I'm done with love!" Janice reads from Janette's diary.
"Uh, guys. I'm in the middle of my audition." Janelle says as Janice sits on Janelle's bed and pushes her aside, so she can speak.
"Hey producers! Remember me? I'm Janice I sent my audition last week." Janice says as she smiles and waves. Janette snatches her diary back and storms out. "Wait." Janice gets off of Janelle's bed "Janette, gimme back your diary!" She runs out of Janelle's room.
Janelle just smiles awkwardly and waves as the camera fades out.
