Both teams stood outside of a building as Chris ordered. "Welcome to Montreal, the fashion capital of Canada, and this is where we'll be having our fashion show challenge." "A fashion show?! Lame!" Jo bellowed. "I thought you'd be psyched about it." Dave thought out loud, but Jo glared at him and he giggled nervously, "Of course I could be wrong." "Chill Jo, now the theme for this fashion show is Opposite Day; all you have to do dress like your opponent and I, along with our cameo judges, will decide who wears it better. I will randomly pair you with your opponent. We have one size fits all clothes inside made by our interns. The team with the highest score will get an advantage in part 2, which you need because it's very difficult. Now let's head inside."
As they walked down the hallway, Zoey noticed Erin looked blue. "Hey Erin, are you okay?" "Wha? Oh yeah, just feeling homesick. I'll be fine."
~in the wolf confessional~
"I lied. Okay at first when I sang that song yesterday about Courtney I felt so good because I was brave enough to speak the truth but now I feel bad. Why you ask? Because now Zoey thinks I was too mean like Jo or Heather..." Gasps. "...or Courtney!" Shivers is disgust at the thought and then calms down a bit.
~confessional ends~
Meanwhile Sky made her move and spoke to Brick. "Listen Brick, what do you say that you and I form a secret alliance?" "Sorry Sky, no can do." "Why?" "Because a solider must be loyal to his army." Sky rolled her eyes slightly at his comment and then said, "I respect that and all but just think about it. Ok?"
~in the wolf confessional~
"Trying to form an alliance with a Brick is tricky. I mean that guy is too loyal. Maybe I should wait until merge day and then Brick will come around." Sky thought out loud.
~confessional ends~
Unknown to Sky, Dave was eavesdropping and heard everything.
They arrived at an empty fashion showroom, everyone sat on the chairs waiting for further instructions from Chris. He showed up with some judges. "Meet our cameo judges who know fashion; Heather, Lindsay, Katie and Sadie, Dakota, and B." "B? He's not an expert in fashion." Courtney stated. "No, but he does give a straight up answer. Speaking of which, they'll decide which model looks better by hitting the green button depending where the model is standing and give some good comments. The monitor above the stage will show a check mark for the model with the most votes. Now we got that out of the way, time to pair you all up at random; Brick and Rodney, Jasmine and Sierra, Erin and Anne Maria, Zoey and Courtney, Mike and Justin, and finally Sky and Jo. You models get back stage, the sooner you guys switch looks, the sooner you all strut your stuff. I will call you using the Wheel of Fashion Rivalry!" Chris said as Chef pushes the wheel and sets it beside a podium.
While everyone was waiting for the show to start, Sam walks over to Dakota and she hugged him the minute he got close. "Sam! I missed you so much!" "Me too, sorry I didn't get to text you." "It's alright, I've been watching the show, as long as you are alright I am happy." Dakota still has orange skin, spiked green hair, and super strength, the only changes were the size, eyes, and speech. While they were chit chatting, Max glared in secret, Dave was curious.
~in the Panther confessional~
"How dare he, that video gaming chump kissing up to one of the judges so his team will win. Well that won't save him from the evil!" Max bellowed followed by a evil laugh.
...
"Dakota and Sam as a couple does not make sense. Sam bribing her so his team wins makes a lot of sense. Those two are not compatible for example like Cody and Samey. Yeah, I know about those two." Dave said.
~confessional ends~
Chris appeared at the podium under a spotlight. Sam and Dakota quickly said their goodbyes and Sam returned to his seat. "Ladies and gentlemen, let the fashion showdown begin! Let's bring out our first two models!" Chris spins the wheel with pics of the opposing models. The arrow slows down and lands on a picture of Brick and Rodney. "Rodney, Brick, you bros are up first." Chris said. They both walk down the catwalk and halted at the end where the judges can get a good look. Brick was wearing a white shirt, dark blue overalls, and brown boots. Rodney was wearing a green shirt, dark green shorts, tags, and black combat boots.
~in the Panther confessional~
"I hope Courtney notices me." Rodney said still going gaga for Courtney.
~confessional ends~
Most of the judges hit the green button for Rodney. "Okay, why a yes for Rodney?" Chris asked. "For some reason besides the fact Rodney has bad hair, the GI look suits him." Heather commented in a mean girl kind of way. "And the reason is?" "What is this 20 questions?" "Sheesh Heather chill. Any comments for Brick?" "Yeah, Brick needs to loosen up, I mean the farmer look is good but he still looks stiff." Lindsay said. "Point goes to the Panthers. Now who is next?" Chris spins the wheel again and it lands on Jasmine and Sierra. Lindsay, Sadie, and Dakota voted for Jasmine. Katie, Heather, and B voted for Sierra. It ended up in a tie, but the Panthers still have the lead by two points. Chris spun the wheel again and this time it landed on Mike and Justin.
~in the Wolf/Panther confessional~
"Honestly I have no idea about how to be a model. I just hope I get a good rating but how can I when I am up against Justin?" Mike sounded concerned when he made that comment, probably worried that Zoey will go gaga for Justin if he looks good in Mike's clothes.
...
"This will be easy, even if I have to wear that dork's clothes. In the end I'll prove to Anne Maria that I am a good model. I bet I would even get Zoey to go gaga for me which will make Anne Maria go nuts." Justin said in a relaxed tone.
~confessional ends~
Mike and Justin stood in front of the judges, it took a while for them to decide but in the end they agreed on something and pressed the button. The monitor showed a check mark for Mike which made Justin drop his jaw. "Whoa! I was not expecting that. Would any of you judges care to explain?" "Simple, Mike looks better in that dark green shirt and those jeans. Justin however is so five years ago." Dakota said.
~in the Panther confessional~
"This can't be happening! This has to be a nightmare!" Justin screamed.
~confessional ends~
Now it was Zoey and Courtney's turn. They walked down the catwalk. Zoey has her hair down for the challenge, Courtney had a superior smirk on her face thinking she can pull off the indie look. Erin cheered for Zoey. "You can do it Zoey!" After five minutes of observation, all of the judges voted for Zoey for rocking the CIT look. "I think Zoey looks more mature in that assemble then Courtney." Sadie commented. "I agree, Courtney looks more like she is going on vacation and powering through it." Katie added. Courtney's become red with rage and blew up by throwing a tantrum.
~in the Panther confessional~
"Of course Sadie is still made at me for voting her off during season 1! Why else would she vote for Zoey?! I am so outraged! What does Zoey have that I don't?!" Courtney yelled.
~confessional ends~
"Sky Jo! You're up!" The two female athletes reluctantly walk down the aisle. Some of the judges voted for Jo, which really surprised the blond jock. "First Justin and now this, reason?" Chris asked. "Honestly, I think Sky's look makes Jo a bit more feminine." Dakota commented. Jo was still stunned by the results, Sky however wasn't surprised.
~in the wolf confessional~
"Yeah, fashion shows are not my thing." Sky commented.
~confessional ends~
"Finally, Erin and Anne Maria." Chris says as they stepped out and walked down the aisle. The judges pondered; Anne Maria was rocking the goggles and jacket but Erin looks some in neon color. It was another got another tie. "Yes!" Anne Maria hollered.
~in the Panther confessional~
"Oh yeah! Say my name! This girl is totally a model!" Anne Maria cheered.
~confessional ends~
"So far we have three wolves, two Panthers, two draws, and no winner. Tie breaker time! This time I'll pick. Let's see...Mike, time to temporarily switch styles with...Dave." Chris said. Fifteen minutes later, Dave came out wearing Mike's style feeling pretty confident. "Alright, let's hear it." "Pathetic, lame, and desperate is what I describe Dave trying to pull that off." "If Dave and Mike were brothers Dave would be the little brother trying to be like his older brother. The older brother being Mike." "He's okay." "I think so too." "Dave's obsessive personality does not match the clothes he's wearing." Dakota commented. B gave Dave a so-so hand gesture. Dave cringed a little. "Whoa, pretty low dude, you better hope Mike gets a bad rating." Dave starts to worry and hopes Mike blows it. Mike came out wearing Dave's style. "Judges, what is your verdict on Mike?" Heather spoke first. "Normally, I think sweater vests are lame but Mike makes it work." "For once I agree with Heather, A+." Lindsay said. "Mike looks smart and sweet." Katie said. "And at the same time hot." Sadie added. "The V-neck suits him." Dakota commented on it. B gives Mike two thumbs up. "With the score five to four, the Wolves win part 1!"
~in the wolf/Panther confessional~
"You have got to be kidding me! Mike is not that cool or good looking! He's got a gap in his front teeth!" Dave exclaimed.
...
"Whoa, two in a row, this is a first." Mike said sounded really surprised. "I hope Dave doesn't take it to hard."
...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Dave yelled angrily.
~confessional ends~
"And now onto part two which will take place outside." "Good I can finally change back into my normal clothes." Courtney said. "No Jo, this race is for TD models and you have to wear the style your originally assigned to until the end." "Why?" "You'll see."
Mike changed back into Justin's style and later joined the wolves outside for part 2. Zoey walks up to Erin. "Hey Erin, thanks for the support." "No problem Zoey." Zoey was going to ask Erin if she was really alright because she is very concerned when Chrus sowed up and spoke. "In this part of the challenge two teams of six will race against each other but since it's Opposite Day the slowest team wins." "What?! Are you nuts McClain?!" Jo yelled at the obnoxious host. "If by nuts you mean genius." Jo growled at Chris's comment and Sky asked, "What's the point of this race?" "Here is an example to clarify things. Let's say Brick dressed like Rodney crosses the finish line first, which means the wolves don't win, the panthers did. Get it?" Everyone nodded except Jo, feeling frustrated trying to understand this backwards race. "Just make sure you keep moving and be back here before the sun sets completely. Ready, set..." "Wait a minute, what about the reward to help them with part 2?" "Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me Shawn. Since the wolves won they get to take the Montreal Bus tour and see some attractions. You Panthers will be on foot. Here are your maps and some walkie talkies so I can keep in touch with you. Have fun. Go!" The wolves hopped on the bus and it drove off while the Panthers start walking. "Chris, how is this going to bring good ratings?" Chef asked. "Simple, I wanna see which of the competitors would snap first." They both laughed.
It has been over an hour and the panthers were getting exhausted. "This is pointless, it's obvious we're winning anyway." "Let's just sit down." Then they hear Chris's voice from their Walkie talkie. "No way Courtney, you and your team have to keep moving or otherwise you're disqualified." "Ugh! Fine!" "This does not make sense, I bet he's just messing with us." "Look Jo, I want to win as much as you do but we have to wait until The Wolves cross the finish line. Once they do we'll win." Jo said nothing but glare at Courtney. The panthers resumed walking.
Meanwhile on the tour bus, Erin sat at an empty seat looking out the window when Zoey sat right next to her. "Zoey? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be sitting with Mike or Gwen?" "I want to talk to you about something. Why have you been so quiet? Is it because you got a tie? Don't worry we still won." Erin sighed and answered, "It's not the challenge. It's...well...you know that song I sang yesterday about how mean Courtney is? I was only speaking the truth and I got so mad the way she talked smack about you. I'm worried you might think I'm mean." "Erin that thought never crossed my mind. It took a lot of courage to speak your mind like that, I just wish it was me." Zoey said and they both giggled. After they calmed down Zoey resumed speaking, "So, wanna join us?" "Sure." Erin answered and she joined Zoey, Mike, and Gwen as they checked out the beautiful sights.
Hours later, the Panthers were seriously tired. Jo couldn't take it, this slow race was driving her crazy. They see the sun lowering down to the horizon. "Ahhhh! I can't take it! Jo yelled and ran off. "Jo! No!" Courtney yelled. She and the rest of the panthers ran after Jo. The fierce female jock was pumped with adrenaline as Jo ran with great speed. The panthers were on her tail and they tackled her to the ground. "Got you!" Courtney said but they were so busy wrestling Jo to the ground they didn't realize they crossed the finish line...first. The tour bus arrived and the wolves hopped off. "Since the Panthers crossed the finish line, the wolves win!" The wolves were pumped about their latest victory.
Later that night, after everyone changed back into their old clothes, the other panthers glared at Jo, but she ignored them. "Alright models, you know the drill, vote for whoever you think stank today and then we'll proceed. Now get started."
~in the Panther confessional~
"I wanna vote for Justin because I am still mad at him." Anne Maria said.
...
"Even though Jo did help us win a point for part one, her addiction to winning cost us a lot. So Jo is out." Courtney said.
...
"I am voting for Justin because we do not need a model on this team. Besides, I am very valuable." Jo said.
...
"I would vote for Mike but I just remembered he's on team wolf. So, I have no clue who I am voting for. I guess I could vote for Dave." Justin said.
~confessional ends~
Chris begin passing out the hackie sacks after the panthers returned. He gave one to; Rodney, Cody, Max, Courtney, Anne Maria, Sierra and Dave, which left Justin and Jo. Chris looked at them while tossing the hackie sack into the air, building up the tension. They all waited to see who is leaving. "Justin..." The young model tensed up when he heard his name. "...you are...safe." Chris finished his sentence as he tossed the last hackie sack to Justin. Jo froze with shock and then started yelling at her team. Chef grabbed her and tossed her into the hayride.
At the Panther RV, Dave got Courtney to meet him at the table while the others slept. "So what did you want to talk about?" Courtney asked him. "I think the wolves cheated because Sam bribed one of the judges." After Dave said that the former CIT broke out into a laugh and then calmed down. "Oh come on, Sam maybe a lot of things but he would never get his girlfriend to help him cheat. I should know, I was on Team Hamster with him." "Yeah but he did cheat at that pancake obstacle challenge thing." "True but still..." "But that is not all, I overheard Sky trying to form an alliance with Brick. If those two stick around long enough until merge day, they start picking the rest of us off, which is why I think you and I should form an alliance." Dave said with a serious tone. "Whoa, you are serious." "Face it, you and I are the only normal people here and we need to show all of them people like us are better! If you and I make through to the finale I promise you will get your million." "Why you?" "Face it, you have outdoor knowledge and athletic skills, I don't. Besides, wouldn't be nice to face a non threatening opponent?" Dave asked. Courtney pondered for a bit until Dave spoke again. "So what do you say?" He held out his hand. She shook it to seal the deal.
