Shadows in the light
Isaac lays on his bed reading his book, when Leshawna comes over. "Yo Isaac, DJ tells me you're a cool guy when you choose to be." Leshawna says getting his attention. Isaac sets his book down and sits up on his bed. "Hmm, never thought me." Isaac says. "Can you say that again?" Leshawna says not used to Isaac's method of speaking. "Never thought I'd be considered cool." Isaac says hopping off his bed. "Well DJ thinks you are. It's nice to..." Leshawna says before she is broken off by a whistle. "Now what?" Isaac says heading outside along with the rest of the gophers. The bass are outside as well, now without Katie either.
"Hello meal tickets. Time for the next challenge...dodgeball." Chris says smiling. "Sweet, time for me to show off my mad skills." Harold says joyfully. "Like you have any nerdling." Duncan says. "Shut it, host speaking. Five rounds of dodgeball, five players for each team, first to win three win the challenge and immunity." Chris says smiling. "Wondering about numbers." Isaac says. "Same here bro, anyways, let's see you perform your magic." DJ says. "Brains more than brawns." Isaac replies. "Oh, well, you should probably have some skill." DJ says. "I do." Isaac says nodding his head.

Bathroom confessional: "To be honest, I've never played pure dodgeball. Played pins or people, either knock out the players or knock down all the pins. Had one game where I was on fire and the game ended in less than a minute. Sadly I can't just turn on my A game. I'm afraid that this is one challenge that I will mess up on." Isaac says looking toward the side sad.

"Pick your team captain to decide each game's line up. Game starts in the court made by the interns." Chris says heading toward the court.
"I'm capt-..." Heather says before she is drowned out by all the rest saying Isaac's name. "Okay, Gwen, Owen, Bridgette, DJ, Leshawna for game one. Next match's team decided after previous game's ending." Isaac says taking the position seriously. The called players high five each other then all of them high five Isaac while Heather looks very angry.
"I don't care who's captain, I'm going to sleep, don't wake me up if you wish to live." Duncan says. "We are so dead." Cody says depressed. "Don't worry guys, I'll be captain. Cody, Lindsay, Beth, Geoff and me will be up first." Harold says proud of what he believes in. "Yeah, we're dead." Cody says sadder. "Come on you guys, let's just give it our all." Geoff says trying to cheer the bass up. It works partially. "Geoff's right if we give it our all, luck will be on our side." Beth says happier than before.

Bathroom Confessional: "This is the perfect chance to eliminate Isaac from the game. Just need to wait for the moment to strike." Heather says with a grin.

The competitors head toward the court and take a seat on the bench that has their team's symbol above it. "Let game one begin." Chef says from the referee's chair. All ten players run toward the dodgeballs. Cody, Lindsay, Harold, Owen, and DJ manage to grab one of the five dodgeballs. The dodgeball match begins when Owen throws one at Geoff who moves to the side of it and grabs it. Lindsay looks at the dodgeball she has when DJ throws it at her leg, hitting it. "Blondie's out." Chef says as Lindsay heads to the bench. Cody throws his Leshawna who catches it. "Barbecue boy is out." Chef says as Cody heads to the bench. Beth throws one at Bridgette who's too busy waving to her team and gets hit by it in her shoulder. "Surfette's out." Chef says as Bridgette heads to the bench. Geoff throws his dodgeball at Owen who gets hit by it in the stomach, but the dodgeball is sent into the air and Gwen catches it. "Lardo and Sunshine both out. Goth, pick a teammate to bring in." Chef says as Geoff and Owen take a seat on the bench. "Owen." Gwen says and Owen comes back out. Gwen throws her dodgeball at Beth and Beth gets hit in the right knee. At the same time Harold threw his dodgeball at Gwen and hits her in the right foot. "Goth and Nerdette both out." Chef says as Gwen and Beth both sit on the bench. DJ throws his dodgeball along with Leshawna at Harold, Harold manages to avoid both of them. Owen picks up a dodgeball and throws it at Harold. Harold turns to face Owen and sees the dodgeball coming, but doesn't have time to dodge it and it hits his kiwis. "Oh...my jewels." Harold says as he falls to the ground. "Nerdling out. Gophers win round one." Chef says as Harold crawls over to the bench.
The gophers high five among themselves, except for Heather. The bass grumble. "Okay. Owen, Bridgette, Gwen. Rest. Sadie, Justin, and myself. Head out." Isaac says after the celebration. "Gotcha captain." Says the three resting players. "This better not mess up my hair." Justin says as he, Sadie, Isaac, DJ, and Leshawna take the field. "Okay, Tyler, take my spot, Noah take Lindsays. Rest get back out there. I'll be back out after I recover." Harold says in a squeaky voice. "We're facing the captain, we lose this match." Beth says. "I don't do sports, besides I'll just hold you guys back." Noah says unmotivated as ever. "Okay, Izzy take Lindsay's spot." Harold says. "Yahoo, let's rumble." Izzy says as she bounces out of her seat over to the field.
"Okay maggots, on your mark, get set, injure." Chef says before blowing his whistle. Justin stands still managing his hair, while the rest head toward the dodgeballs. Isaac, Beth, Izzy, Tyler, and Geoff grab the five dodgeballs. Beth throws a dodgeball at Isaac, who moves to the side then throws one back at her which hits her in the stomach, which sends her back several feet. "Nerdette out, again." Chef says as Beth takes another seat. Geoff throws his at Justin. Justin sees it coming, but rather than avoid it, he uses his arms to shield his hair. "Don't touch the hair." Justin says, but the dodgeball hits his right shoulder. "Pretty boy out." Chef says as Justin walks over to the bench, still admiring his own looks. DJ grabs the ball that hit Justin and throws it at Tyler. Tyler sees it, sets his dodgeball in his left arm and tries to catch the incoming dodgeball with his right hand but the impact sends Tyler back a foot, and makes him drop the dodgeball he had in his arm. "Fake jock out." Chef says as Tyler heads over. "I'm a real jock." Tyler says as he sits down. Izzy throws a dodgeball at Sadie. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. What do I do?" Sadie says too preoccupied with wondering to do that she didn't really do anything and the dodgeball hits her left arm. "Chatty out." Chef says as Sadie takes a seat. Geoff picks up the dodgeball Tyler dropped and throws it at Isaac. Isaac rolls out of the way, picks up the dodgeball that knocked out Sadie and tosses DJ the dodgeball that knocked Tyler out that had rolled over. Isaac and DJ nod to each other and simultaneously throw the dodgeballs at Geoff, one low then one medium-high. Geoff rolls to the side avoiding both of them. "Now." Isaac says as Leshawna throws a third dodgeball at Geoff, Geoff is unable to avoid it and gets hit in the left elbow. "Sunshine out again." Chef says while Geoff walks over. Izzy throws one from both hand at DJ and Leshawna. Both forgot that she was in the game and get hit in the side of the head. "Raptor boy and chill girl both out. "We can actually win this round." Cody says as he and Izzy grab two dodgeballs each while Isaac has the fifth dodgeball. "Wait for opportunity." Isaac says patiently. Cody throws his two dodgeballs at Isaac. Isaac tosses his dodgeball into the air and avoids the pair by crouch then when the pair bounce back, Isaac grabs the pair and throws one at Cody very fast. Cody tries to move to the side but the dodgeball goes too fast and hits his right shoulder with enough force to send him spinning. "Too much pepper." Isaac says as he sends the other one aiming at Izzy's right shoulder. Izzy ducks below it. "Izzy the dodgeball." Tyler says. "I know, he doesn't have any left." Izzy says looking over at Tyler. "No I mean.." Tyler says before the dodgeball hits Izzy's head. "Crazy chick out. Gophers win round two." Chef says as Izzy looks confused by the turn of events.
"How'd you do that man?" DJ says. "Distraction." Isaac says as he high fives everyone besides Heather. "This isn't good. We need to win the final three matches to win the challenge." Cody says depressed again. "That's impossible, we're horrible and Isaac's very smart." Beth says stating the facts. "We need to wake Duncan up. He's smart and ruthless." Geoff says. "I'm not doing it, he said he'll kill whoever wakes him up." Cody says very scared. "Noah, you'll do it as you haven't done anything otherwise.' Geoff says as he and the other bass members look at Noah. "Fine, not like you guys can make it without me." Noah says as he grabs a stick and starts to poke Duncan with it. Duncan shortly afterwards grabs the stick. "I told you jokers that I did not want to be awaken." Duncan says irritated. "Sorry Duncan but we are down by 2 rounds and need the remaining three to win." Beth says scared. "Fine, here's something I learned from Juvey. It's called Jump the Newbie. Gather up all the dodgeballs then simultaneously throw them at a single target." Duncan says groaning a bit.
"Okay time for round three." Chef says. "Leshawna, DJ and myself will take it easy this round. Gwen, Courtney, Trent, you three are up." Isaac says resting. The next two rounds go remarkable quickly as Duncan's strategy works out. The score becomes 2 and 2 and the final round is about to begin. "Seems Duncan is a smart opponent. Sadie, Bridgette, Trent, Owen, Leshawna, take it easy. Heather, Gwen, Courtney, DJ, and myself will determine this match's outcome." Isaac says as the players take their positions. After twenty minutes, both teams are down to a single player. Isaac and Duncan are both tired. "I'm going to enjoy this." Duncan says throwing a dodgeball at Isaac. Isaac moves out of the way and the dodgeball ends up near the gopher's team bench. Isaac avoids the other four dodgeballs then head toward the one in the back and concentrates on hitting Duncan. Heather sticks her foot out in front of Isaac and he trips and slides forward, the dodgeball in his hand flies out of his grasp and over to Duncan. Heather withdraws her foot. Isaac starts to get up when Duncan nails him on the back with the dodgeball. "Silent out, bass with the match and the challenge." Chef says as the gophers head over to Isaac to help him up.
"What happened captain?" Heather says feigning ignorance and innocence. "I must've tripped over my own foot, I was so deep into concentration. Sorry guys." Isaac says regretful. "No problems man, it happens." DJ says as he helps Isaac up.
The bass return to their cabin, in high spirits, Isaac heads to the to wipe off his face while the rest of the gophers return to their cabin.
In the gopher's cabin, Heather is talking to everyone but Isaac while Isaac cleans off his face in the sea water. "Isaac has to go, he tripped on purpose." Heather says. "I don't believe that." DJ says. "Yeah, he had worked extremely hard for us the previous two challenges, why would he intentionally lose?" Leshawna says adding on. "He wanted to get our trust so that he can betray us and make us wary of each other." Heather says trying to convince them. "We are wary of each other already as we'll have to face each other eventually." Bridgette says defending Isaac. "Any ways, we'll decide who to boot at elimination." Trent says. "Okay, I'm sure you guys will make the right choice." Heather says smiling.
At elimination. "After only six votes, it makes it obvious who is getting the boot." Chris says. "The next person to head to the dock of shame and board the boat of losers is..." Chris always enjoy the suspense as it's good for ratings. "Justin." Chris says smiling. "WHAT?!" Justin and Heather say simultaneously. "Yes, now get going, and you can't ever ever EVER come back ever." Chris says as Justin heads toward the dock.
"Who will become the next to leave emptied handed? Find out on the next episode of Total...Drama...Island." Chris says rubbing his hands together.
