Chapter 7: Battle of the Brains
It was once again for Chris McLean to give commentary, after having a short Aftermath episode.
Chris McLean's Commentary:
Last time on Camp Jungle Rumble, it was idol worship. Worship of your team leader that is. The campers had to create statues of their Dear Leaders as a way to appease them in order to get some pieces of the treasure map. But it seems accidents would apparently happen, as poor Molly from Team Zaria fell right into the cement.
She was used as a literal base for Zaria which the judges apparently gave her the thumbs down. Molly was certainly going to have a folly in likely being voted off. That is, until Sheen came in to save her by being so arrogantly supporting this Ultra Lord character, whoever that might be. This didn't give him the right attention to another teammate Wally as he immediately tore up one of his rare comic books and nearly broke into a fight. Luckily yours truly was there on the scene ready to stop it.
That obviously got poor Sheen a one way ticket on the Rowboat of Shame home. Since it seems Molly has most of the cement out of her, will she be able to redeem herself? Find out on Camp Jungle Rumble.
End of Commentary.
Things were quite unpleasant for members of Team Zaria. After Sheen got voted off, Molly was desperate in trying to seek an alliance to be against Gaz for pushing her in the cement. She had kept most of her team members up last night in lobbying them to vote off Gaz the next time it was their turn.
"I'm telling you, until she really does make a mistake I'm not going to vote for her" said Marc, "it's just not logical."
"But she pushed me in the cement!" cried Molly, "I think I still have some on my hair."
"Please, can we get some shut eye or I'm going to vote you off" added Libby.
Outside, Chris noticed from afar from the hut Team Zaria were staying in that they were obviously having arguments, and not sleeping like the other teams were.
"Aw, isn't that precious, they're up before I can get them up" laughed Chris as he then took out his megaphone, "let's hope this will make them stop arguing."
"I'm telling you please be quiet!" cried Wally to Molly who didn't want to hear it from her anymore.
"Attention Team Zaria, you're the first team that'll receive today's wake up call, first!" laughed Chris as he shouted it through the megaphone.
Chris then quickly did the same for the other teams which obviously didn't annoy them as much as it annoyed Team Zaria. As the campers were eating in the open mess hall, members of Team Zaria were all tired out from Molly trying to get her team to vote Gaz off.
"For the last time, please stop mentioning that!" cried Janet as she obviously didn't have her beauty sleep.
"Wow, Team Zaria is sure having trouble" said Cleveland Jr., as he was noticing it from his team's table.
"Oh please come on, don't pretend you're going to do something sinister to them" sighed Mandy.
"Something sinister, sinister" thought Mindy as she was at her team's table, "note to self, form an alliance to rip apart Team Zaria."
"You then must form an alliance with me, er Zim!" cried Zim.
"You, the kid with the skin condition?" asked Mindy, "You're probably a bigger loser than Team Zaria."
"Alright that's enough insulting my name" said Zaria as she stepped in.
"Hey, I'm just saying if you didn't have so many weaklings in your team maybe you would be better off" added Mindy.
"Why don't you say that to our face" said Wally as he was getting quite defensive.
"This sounds tense, you think I should go and stop before something big happens?" asked Chris to Jorgen and Chef whom simply then both laughed, "Nah, I better stop this before it gets way out of hand."
Suddenly Chris took one of the megaphones that were near him.
"Alright campers, enough breakfast!" shouted Chris as everyone could barely hear it, "Time for your challenge."
"It's about time" said Gaz.
As the campers got in the center of the Pupununu tribe itself they noticed an odd genie-like character as they arrived.
"I would like you for all to meet Psychic Juju, a.k.a. the Mind Reading Juju" said Chris.
"I knew you were going to say that" said the Psychic Juju in a semi-elitist voice.
"So what's the challenge already" said Gaz.
"Don't be impatient" continued the Psychic Juju, "today's challenge would be a battle of the brains. Each team will give me two of the most smartest team members. Oh wait, I already know who's going to be in this challenge, for Team Lok and Tak its obvious Jimmy and Cindy; for Team Zaria, Marc aand Gaz and for Team Jeera, Dib and Mandy."
"I Zim protest this injustice, I know more than any of these, er, fellow puny fellow humans!" cried Zim.
"Sorry my mind is made up" laughed the Psychic Juju, "if you all follow me this way please."
As the campers followed the Psychic Juju, they headed toward the center of an empty grassy area. They noticed there were six chairs meant for the people considered to be the smartest of the teams, but also noticed the other chairs for the other team members whom weren't.
"Is this kind of like a brain teaser competition or something?" asked Jimmy.
"Like on who wants to be a millionaire or something like that?" added Hoogie.
"Yes indeed" replied the Psychic Juju.
"And the only prize is that you'll stay here for another day and the losing team votes someone off" added Chris.
"Er, why do we have to sit in these chairs?" asked Johnny as he sat in his chair.
"Every time your so-called genius types get a wrong answer or a correct answer a member of the other team gets a shocking surprise" laughed Chris.
"Is this even legal?" asked Sissy.
"I got a huge contract and also I got this invention from a fan who also says he's a genius" added Chris.
"I hope it wasn't Brain Freezer or Mister Mittens" sighed Johnny.
"Time to begin a series of ten questions" said the Psychic Juju as he made his announcement, "you have to buzz in first if you want to answer it."
"On with the question already!" cried Gaz in quite an impatient mood.
"Alright, first question give me the Latin name for the animal of the frog" stated the Psychic Juju.
Marc quickly pressed the buzz button near his chair.
"You, state your answer!" ordered the Psychic Juju.
"It's referred as anura, meaning tail-less" replied Marc.
Suddenly both Danielle and Manny screamed in pain after given the right answer.
"That is correct!" announced the Psychic Juju.
"That's right" laughed Chris as he disrupted the process for just a few seconds, "every time a genius of the team gets the right answer, the other members of the other team hooked up to the chairs get a shocking response."
"Again, is this legal?" asked Sissy who really didn't want to be there.
"Next question, how many languages do the Polynesian people speak?" asked the Psychic Juju.
Jimmy immediately buzzes in first before the other geniuses.
"About 36" replied Jimmy.
Suddenly both Billy and Frida felt the obvious pain, except for Billy who somewhat enjoyed it.
"I'll say that's about correct" replied the Psychic Juju.
"Do it again, again, again, again!" cried Billy whose hair was burning a bit.
"Apparently that fried your brain" sighed Mandy.
"Onward next question!" announced the Psychic Juju, "What islands do the Mangareva people live on?"
Mandy then quickly presses the buzz button.
"On the Gambier Islands" replied Mandy which then gave a shock to both Wally and Zoe.
"Say that again and I'm getting myself free!" cried Zoe as she was trying to get herself out.
"You are correct!" replied the Psychic Juju, "Onward, next question! Who colonized the Gambier Islands?"
Gaz quickly buzzes in.
"The French" replied Gaz which gave a shock to poor Danielle again, and also this time to Flapjack.
"That tickles!" cried Flapjack who oddly didn't feel a thing.
"You're correct!" said the Psychic Juju, "Next question, true or false did the French implement nuclear testing or didn't they near those islands?"
Suddenly Cindy pressed her buzz button.
"True!" replied Cindy which then gave Danielle again another shock and also gave Abigail a shock.
"Correct!" cried Psychic Juju, "Question five, who was Peter Chanel?"
Marc quickly buzzed right in.
"He was a Catholic martyr who wanted to convert the natives of the islands of Wallis and Futuna into Christianity" replied Marc which then gave a shock again to poor Danielle and also finally again to Zim.
"What's with this picking on me?" cried Danielle.
"I think Team Jeera's chairs might be defective a bit" laughed Chris.
"Onward to Question Six" continued the Psychic Juju, "name one thing the island of Anuta is known for."
Jimmy immediately presses the buzz button.
"Known for being one of the smallest inhabitant islands for the Polynesian people" replied Jimmy which then sent a shock to poor Danielle again, and hits finally poor Molly.
"You are correct" said Psychic Juju , "Question Seven, what does choral singing represent for the people on that island?"
Dib finally pressed the buzz button.
"I guess it has to do something with singing about their lost love ones or something" said Dib which gave a shock to Hoogie and Flapjack again.
"Yeah, I suppose so" said the Psychic Juju who was a bit disappointed in Dib, "question eight, what was Operation Christmas Drop?"
Marc again buzzes in pretty fast.
"It was a recon mission to also give supplies to the natives of the island of Kapingamarangi" replied Marc which finally gave Danielle a break in giving poor Cleveland Jr., a shock and also again with Zim.
"Curse this, this device Zim will curse the one who created this!" cried Zim.
"Wow, really impressive" said Chris, "that Marc Clark certainly knows a lot."
"Two more questions left" continued the Psychic Juju, "question nine, who was Kamehameha I?"
Suddenly Cindy buzzed in.
"He was the first king of the Kingdom of Hawaii" replied Cindy as she answered it a shock was given again to poor Danielle and to Abigail.
"Wow, glad I'm not you" said Abigail as she noticed poor Danielle couldn't take another hit.
"Last question" said the Psychic Juju, "what law was he known for creating."
Marc immediately presses the buzz button.
"He was responsible for the Law of the Splintered Paddle which protects non-combatants in the time of battle" said Marc which gave finally a shock to poor Johnny and another shock to finally Timmy.
"Finally over, and lucky for the ones who didn't get shocked" laughed Sissy who was glad it was finally over.
"Let's see who won" said Chris, "sounds like Team Zaria has quite the brianiac, you guys will go on for another day. Team Lok and Tak got in second, as for Team Jeera, I'll be seeing you all at the camp fire ceremony."
Poor Dib knew he screwed up big by not helping out too much, he had finally caught up with Jeera who was a bit disappointed with his work.
"Glad I caught you" said Dib.
"Let me guess, you came to save your big behind from being too lazy to press the button for your team?" asked Jeera.
"Mandy screwed up too" added Dib.
"Yeah, but she answered the questions correctly" replied Jeera.
"Danielle looks pretty messed up, I don't think she would be useful anymore" said Dib.
"Hmm, this will be indeed a tough for me" said Jeera, "but we'll see when the time comes."
It was finally again time for the camp fire ceremony. Chris gave the tropical fruit smoothies to all the campers of Team Jeera who would remain for another day. The only two campers who didn't get a tropical fruit smoothie were Danielle and Dib.
"Campers, here tonight is the last tropical fruit smoothie, the camper who gets it will stay for another day" said Chris to which Billy was finished finishing up his tropical fruit smoothie.
"Hey Chris, can I have that one, I finished up mine" laughed Chris.
Chris a bit ticked off by Billy throws the tropical fruit smoothie to Dib.
"Billy, you ruined the atmosphere!" cried Mandy as she punched him right on the nose.
"That punch was sure satisfying" laughed Chris to which Sticky Beard rowed up with his rowboat to the shoreline again.
"Time for ya to go Danielle" said Sticky Beard, "don't worry I got a good ghost story for ya I have cooked up."
"Oh boy, lucky, lucky me" sighed Danielle.
"Wow yo, what a lucky break, I didn't even get hurt this time!" said Irwin in a surprised manner.
"Gee lucky you" sighed Danielle as she headed on the rowboat.
The camera then turns to Chris where Mandy was still pounding Billy for ruining the atmosphere.
"Will Billy ruin the atmosphere again? Will Irwin finally get what's coming to him? Find on next time on Camp Jungle Rumble" continued Chris.
