Hello there! Another swift update - though I have already wrote the first six episodes and am currently in the middle of episode 7 (God dammit, the eliminations are getting hard).
My longest chapter in Euro-Drama Roadtrip had 8,665 words, and this chapter beats that by over 2,500 - a total of 11,374 words!
Warning - New couple in this chapter, and a potential love triangle (the couple and triangle have nothing to do with each other)
With that, seo duit! Tá fáilte reoite! - (I think I spelled that wrong. Kinda sad that I don't know my national language that well ): )
Euro-Drama Farmyard - Ep3 Pt1 - Wedgied To A Tree
"Last time on Euro-Drama Roadtrip, it was up to the four captains, Beni, Ilene, Agnessa and Tyge –
Agnessa brought back the old gang
Beni made a self-proclaimed fun team
Tyge chose people out of strength or sympathy
And Ilene…got Carolyn to make all of her decisions for her. Lazy bitch!
For their first challenge, they had to design a mascot for their team, sew up a plush model and pitch it to our two celebrity staff members, Noah and Dawn."
"Can you really class them as celebrities?" Farmer Bogas asked as he walked by sweeping with a broom.
"Oh dad," Lara sighed, shaking her head. "You know nothing about showbiz."
"Showbiz doesn't know nothing about quality these days," Farmer Bogas sighed before walking off-screen.
Lara shook her head again before brushing her hair out of her face and continuing, "Team 1 made a crude-looking cat, Team 2 made an adorable zebra, Team 3 made a shark with a heart, and Team 4 made a praying mantis.
In the end, the Zany Zebras came first, the Malicious Mantises came second, the Ferocious Felines came third, and that left the Shady Sharks to vote someone out.
The couples' alliance from last season targeted Shay, but thanks to some crafty strategy from both Berto and Jessie, it was Dani who got eliminated.
Only 34 remain, and while that may have been a simple enough challenge, another one is not to be expected for a while.
Who will win? Who will lose? Who will only sing the blues?
Find out if the movie ever ends tonight on Euro…Drama…Roadtrip!"
(7.00pm)
Aleksander dipped his toe into the lake and immediately shivered.
"I'm not jumping in!" he snapped.
"Oh come on, don't be such a lemonade," Sveda pouted as she floated up and down in the water.
"I'm not jumping! I've already said it a hundred times," he snapped.
"Well, if you're not going to jump, maybe you can be pulled!" Sveda exclaimed excitedly, and she grabbed Aleksander's leg and pulled him in.
"Ack!" the Albanian screamed and he fell in with a splash. "So cold! So cold!"
Sveda dropped him, and he waved around gasping for breath.
"He'll be fine. They all have to learn sooner or later!" Sveda exclaimed brightly as she swam away from him.
"This is the life!" Emilia exclaimed as she floated in the lake with Carolyn and Adrijana. "Just relaxing in the water with my best friends!"
"That's right everyone watching!" Carolyn exclaimed as she waved at a nearby camera. "It's me, chickencarrie, with my two new friends, Emilia and Adrijana!"
"Hi!" Emilia said, waving cheerfully.
"What's up?" Adrijana nodded.
"So, Adrijana, you were the winner of Euro-Drama Roadtrip," Carolyn stated as she held out her fist as if it were a microphone.
"Aw, no, is this an interview?" Adrijana groaned.
"Just go with it," Emilia hissed, nudging her.
"Okay. Yes, I was the winner of Euro-Drama Roadtrip, and one million euros," Adrijana nodded. "Though I was forced to give most of it away to relatives. Being under a curse for almost 100 years put some of them in great poverty. I still have more than 300 grand left though."
"Awesome!" Carolyn exclaimed. "So, if you don't mind me asking, what was it like living with a curse?"
"It was hell. Complete hell," Adrijana groaned. "You have no idea. Nothing on this show could portray how bad it was."
"I see," Carolyn nodded. "And Emilia, is it true that you live in Baarle-Nassau?"
"Yep, that's right," Emilia nodded.
"I've seen pictures of it on Google Maps. It looks like a really weird place to live," Carolyn commented. "All those little enclaves."
"It's actually fine. We all speak the same language and have the same money, and police are allowed to cross the borders. It's pretty normal," Emilia shrugged. "There's even a couple of people in my school who live in Belgium, though my house and my school are 100% in the Netherlands."
"Awesome!" Carolyn exclaimed. "Now, who's up for a game of 'who can hold their breath the longest?"
"Me! Me!" Emilia squealed, and they both stood back to back before dunking underwater.
About ten seconds later, Carolyn popped back up.
"Haugh!" she gasped. "Why do I always lose?"
Emilia popped up a few seconds afterwards and bragged, "I could do that all day."
[Confessional: Don't stop her now
Emilia (Netherlands): Even though Adrijana's cousin is a total bitch and Farmer Bogas is just creepy, I'm having a good time here!
I honestly think I could win this season!
Carolyn (United Kingdom): It's me, Carolyn, again! I'm having a blast here. Emilia and Adrijana are just as cool as they appeared on TV, and Sveda is lots of fun too, even if she is a bit of air-head.
Ilene seems alright, though she's a bit quiet.
Ilene (Belgium): All the other girls on the team get along so well. I might get eliminated if I don't mingle with someone…why do I have to be so socially awkward?]
Ilene walked up to the lake and took a deep breath.
"Uh…" she said hesitantly, before groaning in defeat, and stomping away.
"Ilene!" Emilia exclaimed. "Are you going to the cabin?"
"Uh…sure," Ilene replied.
"Don't!" Emilia shouted in panic. "Lou is painting the cabin, and he gets really pissed when people interrupt him. Last time I came into the room when he was painting, he scratched my face!"
"Ouch," Carolyn said, clenching her eyes. "It's a good thing he's hot."
"Huh!?" Emilia exclaimed. "What did you just say?"
Carolyn sighed, "Did I just say that out loud?"
"It's cool. Other girls in my school have told me the same thing. I'm used to it," Emilia shrugged. "Ilene, since you're not going to the cabin, do you wanna hang out with us?"
"Er…okay," Ilene replied hesitantly, before jumping into the water. "O-ooh, it's a l-little cold."
"You get used to it," Emilia replied. "So, you haven't really said much since you got here. Is the sudden fame getting to you?"
"Y-yeah, I guess," Ilene nodded. "I d-didn't expect it to g-get so m-many views."
"You should have seen it coming," Emilia said, putting an arm around her shoulder. "You have a gift."
"Th-thanks, b-but please d-don't touch me," Ilene stuttered, due to a mixture of nerves and being cold.
"Oh, sorry," Emilia apologized, backing away.
[Confessional: Belgian Raven?
Emilia (Netherlands): I don't know why Ilene is so shy. She should be embracing her talent. Oh well, it's still early in the game, she'll get over it.
Sveda (Azerbaijan): I'm sort of becoming an outsider in the team at the moment. Oh well, with Pavils and Aleksander still here, I have time.]
"That was quite a swim!" Pavils exclaimed as he dried himself with a towel while walking back to the cabin.
"Agreed," Finn nodded. "We should change into some new clothes though. Woah, look!"
"Huh?" Pavils exclaimed as he watched Finn gaping at the cabin. Lou was squatted on the front porch, busy painting a panorama view of the lake onto the cabin.
"That is so good!" Finn exclaimed.
"Meh, it's no Di Vinci," Pavils shrugged. "Now come on, let's get some dry clothes."
He stomped up the steps of the cabin.
"Hey, Lou!" he yelled, gently kicking the Cypriot. "Move it!"
"Ugh, Pavils, what do you want?" Lou snapped.
"To get into the cabin," Pavils frowned. "Now let me in!"
"Come back later!" Lou yelled. "I'm right in the middle of something here!"
"That's…a good idea," Finn said, looking rather freaked out. "You heard him, Pavils. We should…go."
"Hey, this is my cabin just as much as it's yours!" Pavils yelled. "Why should I have to leave just because you're in the middle of some painting!?"
"I SAID **** OFF!" Lou screamed.
"You have no right to be yelling at me like that," Pavils snapped. "Do you know what I've been through in the last month? I've lost all my street cred, and nobody is friends with me anymore! Does that mean nothing to you?"
"Oh no!" Lou exclaimed cynically. "You lost all your friends? You could have been suspended or expelled, but no, you had to lose your street cred! Poor you!"
"What are you on about? Did you get suspended?" Pavils asked in confusion.
"Maybe, maybe not! But it's NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!" Lou screeched. "Now GO AWAY!"
"Fine! I'll go get some clothes at the clothing tent," Pavils frowned, his arms in the air. "Let's go, Finn."
"Sure," Finn sighed, but before walking off he whispered to Lou, "What you're doing is class."
"Thanks," Lou nodded, before getting back to painting.
[Confessional: Did he get suspended?
Pavils (Latvia): What is his deal? I just ask him to move and he gets all arrogant! I'll bet the audience is rooting for him too. What has he got that I don't?
Lou (Cyprus): Nobody interrupts me when I'm painting! Do you know how annoying it is when you're in the zone and someone kicks you in the back?
Pavils has no right to try and push me around again.
Finn (Ireland): [he puts his hand on his forehead] I have a bleedin' headache thanks to those two!]
Petros groaned as he dipped his feet in the lake and tried to scrape the super-glue out of his legs.
"Ugh, now my finger is stuck!" he snapped.
"Oh, for God's sake, just get in the damn water!" Anka yelled, and she pushed him into the lake.
"Ack!" the Armenian screamed, popping up after making a splash. "Now my hat is wet."
"But you're super-glue free," Anka commented, before walking off while swinging her arms.
Petros gritted his teeth, but he let out a squeak when he was splashed by Tyge.
"Go away!" Petros yelled at him.
"Oh, come on! It's not that bad!" Tyge exclaimed. "It gets warmer after a while."
Petros smirked at him with that.
"Oh, it's such a horrible memory!" Eloise whined as she stood in the far side of the lake with Amanda. "I don't know how he got into my mansion. I think my manager gave him a key…"
"Handy tip!" Amanda hissed. "If you want people to believe you, don't talk obsessively about your rape."
"Huh? What makes you think I'm lying?" Eloise frowned, folding her arms.
"Because you're talking obsessively about your rape," Amanda pointed out. "I know a girl in my school who got molested by her uncle. She was a cheerful girl, always making jokes and pulling pranks, But after she got raped, she wouldn't talk to anyone for three solid months. She wouldn't even answer questions to teachers."
"So, what you're saying is, I should just say and do nothing?" Eloise asked.
"Well, obviously you should do well at challenges, but be very quiet. If you want to seem physically and mentally scarred, you're going to have to play the part," Amanda advised her. "Take my word for it."
"I trust you," Eloise nodded.
[Confessional: GET ME A BASIN!
Amanda (Sweden): I'll admit I am a little disgusted that Eloise is doing this, but I will go at any length to win this contest. I could easily get Anka to vote with me again, and Tyge is super-gullible, so that's four votes on my side.
I am going to dominate this season!
Sveda (Azerbaijan): Did those two not notice me drying off behind them? Well, they should be grateful that it was me and not Sanna or Marios.
I could tell Eloise was faking anyway. She was being way too much of a diva about it.
Haha, those two think they're so manipulative! Well, they'll stand no chance against me. And you know why?
Because unlike them, I haven't been detected. Well, Aleksander knows who I am, but who's going to believe him? This is the same guy who tricked Tyge into driving into a ditch.]
The members of the felines were standing in a part of the lake that went up to their torsos playing 'Piggy In The Middle'
"Hey, Luko, catch!" Johannes exclaimed, tossing Beni's hat like a Frisbee.
"Hey, give it back!" Beni protested as he tried to swim over and catch it first.
"Hey, it was your idea to play piggy in the middle," Luko shrugged as he passed it to Katerina.
"Did I ever say it wasn't?" Beni asked.
"True," Luko nodded. "Rikard! Catch!"
"I got it!" the Finnish guy exclaimed, and he tried to dive for it, but he missed and fell into the water face-first.
"Well, you tried," Katerina giggled.
"Ooh, this is such a nice day!" Beni cheered, jumping up in the air. The camera had to pixelate him.
Kelija climbed up onto Katerina's head and covered her owner's eyes with her paws.
"Why are you naked?" Johannes sighed, placing his hat over his eyes.
"I have the right to wear what I want," Beni shrugged.
"No you don't," Johannes replied awkwardly.
"Well, people don't have the right to illegally download music, but it doesn't stop them," Beni stated.
"I've never done that personally, but you have a point," Johannes nodded.
"Good," Beni smiled, before grabbing Johannes' fedora and tossing it to Estrella. "Johannes is in the middle! Johannes is in the middle!"
"Get back here!" Johannes yelled as Estrella passed it to Stela.
[Confessional: Their shipping name would be 'Estela'
Rikard (Finland): He's hot, rebellious, and he's got a great c**k! What a perfect package.
Though I've noticed Estrella making some moves on him as well. Should I be worried? Is he taking pity on one of us like Zeferino did to Emilia?]
"Hey, look, here come the Sharks!" Emilia exclaimed.
"Sharks!? Where!?" Johannes asked in panic as he tried to catch his hat before Luko caught it. "Oh, right, you meant the team."
"Hey guys!" Emilia exclaimed, leaping out of the water. "Let's do a quick roll-call. Agnessa's here, Shay's here, Zeferino's here, Berto's here, Alma's here, Symon's here, Jessie's here, Hadi's here…but where's Dani?"
"She got eliminated," Hadi sighed. "And the game had only started."
"Meh, I don't really care," Emilia shrugged. "She was a meanie to Adrijana…but it sucks for you…that came out wrong."
Hadi smirked at her before saying, "It's getting late. I'm going to bed."
With that, he stomped off.
"Really? But it's only…" Emilia thought for a moment. "What time is it?"
"Nobody knows," Marios replied. "The only clocks are in the cabins."
"Well, I'm not going there at the moment," Emilia sighed. "Not with…"
"OK scum!" Farmer Bogas yelled. "It is 10pm, so you have fifteen minutes to take a piss, brush your teeth, and go to bed! Move it, move it, move it!"
As the contestants ran along, Adrijana ran up to Marios and whispered something into his ear.
"Sure," Marios nodded, before rushing into the bathroom.
"What was that about?" Emilia asked as she caught up with Adrijana.
"Huh!?" Adrijana exclaimed.
"I saw you whispering something to Marios," Emilia stated.
"Well…um…" Adrijana said hesitantly. "We have a bit of business between us. It's no big deal."
"I see," Emilia nodded, though she looked very unconvinced.
[Confessional: If you put Marios and Adrijana together, you get Marijana – are they doing marijuana?
Emilia (Netherlands): Adrijana has been acting pretty weird lately, especially when she's near Marios. Is there a secret relationship that I don't know about?]
Lou sat on the cabin. He was covered in paint, and had his finger up his nostril.
"Gross, Lou's picking his nose!" Pavils remarked. "Do you know how unsanitary that is, bra?"
"Pavils, back off!" Emilia frowned.
"I mean, seriously, how do you have so many fangirls? You can't even follow basic hygiene," Pavils continued. "That is so…"
Lou stood up, walked over to Pavils and wiped his finger off his shirt. Pavils' mouth opened wide at that.
"Ew!" he squeaked.
"Be grateful that it wasn't anything more," Lou replied darkly. "I'm going to bed. Don't be a diva too loudly."
With that, he walked inside the cabin.
"Can you believe this!?" Pavils exclaimed, raising his eyebrows at Finn.
"You did sorta ask for it, boy," Finn sighed before also walking in.
[Confessional: Who am I supposed to root for – not that that would change my mind – Lou FTW!
Emilia (Netherlands): I don't see the big deal over picking your nose. I do it all the time. What do you want me to do? Let it slip down my neck?
Finn (Ireland): Did Pavils not say he wanted to show everyone he changed? Good job, d***head!
Pavils (Latvia): He WIPED his SNOT on my SHIRT! Honestly!? And people call me a douchebag!?
Aleksander (Albania): If Pavils and Lou keep this up, I might actually be safe the first time we lose! Bonus!
Sveda (Azerbaijan): It's a good thing I chose Finn over Pavils to try and court. It doesn't look like the latter will last much longer.
Speaking of which, I'm making a bit of progress with him, but slow and steady wins the race.]
It was 6am the following morning.
Marios opened his eyes, and slowly pulled the bedcovers off of his chest.
He sat up and grabbed his shoes before slowly tip-toeing out of the cabin, and shutting the door behind him.
"Where's he going?" Petros muttered a few seconds later, and he sat up and put on his hat. "Ah, who cares. I'm going for a walk in the woods."
Emilia walked through the woods at the far end of the farm,
"I saw her go that way," she muttered to herself. "What are they up to?"
"I missed you," moaned Adrijana's voice from not far away.
"Huh?" Emilia gasped as she tip-toed over.
"Are you absolutely certain that nobody knows about this?" Marios asked her.
"Nah," Adrijana replied. "I did wake Emilia up, but I told her that I was planning a surprise party for the team. She was so drowsy that she probably won't remember it tomorrow. Now come here!"
"This will be more epic than the sax guy in Eurovision 2010!" Marios exclaimed triumphantly.
"You're so cute," Adrijana said affectionately as she tickled Marios' chin. "Now let's get down to business."
Emilia had to hold her breath to prevent herself from screaming.
[Confessional: Don't worry, there's an explanation for this. Also – warning, bad fanfiction reference ahead!
Emilia (Netherlands): And then…suddenly they just started kissing passionately. Marios climbed on top of her and they started to make out keenly against a tree. He took off her top and she took off his clothes. Then he put his thingie into her you-know-what and they did it for the first time!
At least I think it was their first time. Anyways…
'Oh! Oh! Oh!' Adrijana screamed. She was beginning to get an orgasm. They started to kiss everywhere and her pale body became all warm. And then…]
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU MOTHERF***ER!?" Marios moaned as Adrijana continued to make out with him. "Seriously, the condom could pop."
"I can tell you're new to this," Adrijana chuckled and they continued to cuddle each other. Both of them were heavily pixelated by the camera.
"Can you believe they even had condoms in the bathroom cabinet?" Marios asked.
"That's nothing. In the girl's bathroom cabinet, there's an abortion knife," Adrijana countered.
"That's…really disturbing," Marios said, raising his eyebrows.
"We've got a few minutes to kill before Farmer Bogas gives everyone a wakeup call," Adrijana stated. "Next…"
She was interrupted by a cough from nearby.
Her and Marios' eyes and mouth went wide open.
Emilia also looked a little shocked because she wasn't the one who coughed.
"Somebody's watching us!" Marios gasped.
"No shit," Adrijana said dryly.
"This isn't the time to be sarcastic! Let's get him or her before they get away!" Marios exclaimed.
With that, he ran behind a bush.
"We found our mole!" he exclaimed, and he put out a squealing Petros.
"Who's he?" Adrijana asked confusedly. "He's one of the new contestants, right?"
"Petros," Marios replied. "He's the Armenian contestant and he's on my team. He seems to keep to himself a lot."
"I can explain my own life philosophy thank you very much," Petros frowned as he lay on his belly with Marios sat on him. "Can you two put some clothes on please!?"
"You have no right to be requesting us stuff," Marios frowned. "You dirty pervert!"
"I've only been here for about ten seconds," Petros snapped. "I was going for a walk since I couldn't sleep because I've come from three time zones away and I heard some moaning. Now can you let me go?"
"Well, how do we know that you won't tell other people?" Adrijana asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Hey everyone, I watched Adrijana and Marios having sex in the forest," Petros said. "I think people would wonder what I was doing there."
"That's what I'm wondering right now," Marios stated.
"Can you let me go now?" Petros asked angrily.
"Fine," Marios sighed, and he was about to stand up when Adrijana stopped him.
"Wait!" Adrijana exclaimed. "I have an idea."
A minute later, Petros was wearing nothing except for his underwear, which had been duct-taped to a nearby tree.
"I can't believe you're still carrying that everywhere with you," Adrijana chuckled as she stood back and admired their work. "Come on, Marios, we better put on our clothes and get back and before people start looking for us."
"Good idea," Marios nodded as he buttoned up his shirt. "But what are we going to do about Petros?"
"Oh, I only thought about that now," Adrijana stated, tapping her chin. She ripped the duct-tape of the tree, dropping Petros to the ground.
"Ouch!" the Armenian exclaimed, before grabbing his hat and putting back on his head.
"Let that be a lesson to you. Nobody like a peeping Tom," Marios frowned, before he linked arms with Adrijana and they walked off. He could be heard saying, "He seemed a lot tougher in the national selection."
[Confessional: How come Groucho Marx never used duck-tape?
Petros (Armenia): During the national selection, I acted all mysterious and badass. I was practically Edward Cullen.
In reality, I'm nothing like that. I'm a huge comic book nerd, and I can't do a press-up to save my life.
I get bullied a lot, which is why I can never trust people. Sometimes they nail your underwear to a tree!
Marios (Greece): Petros never really says that much. Now I know why. He's probably too busy scheming over his next plan to spy on people. Next time we lose, I'm so voting him off!
On a slightly related note, as you may know, white people are called [uses finger quotes] 'Caucasian', and Armenia is part of the Caucasus, and Petros is clearly not white!
Adrijana (Slovenia): You're probably wondering how this happened.
Well, last May when all the contestants went to that all-expenses paid trip to Eurovision, and we were having this big party after the final, and Lou noticed that Marios was missing, so I offered to go up to room to find him
We talked for a bit and realized that we had a lot in common and then…it's a long story…but when we woke up the morning we were sleeping together.]
Petros finished tying up his shoes before he stood up and walked through the woods.
"That must have hurt!" Emilia exclaimed as he ran up beside him.
"Huh? Where did you come from!?" Petros said, looking rather shocked. "Were you watching the whole time?"
"Yeah, caught every second of it," Emilia admitted. "It was disturbing, but I couldn't risk moving and being caught."
"Oh," Petros nodded as he continued to walk, but then a frown entered his face. "Wait a minute? So you thought it would be a good idea to watch me get duct-taped to a tree by my underwear and do nothing about it?"
Emilia hesitated for a moment before groaning, "Okay, I'm sorry. You can give me a wedgie if you want."
"Nah, I'd never hurt a girl. That would be unchivalrous," Petros stated.
"Unchivalrous?" Emilia repeated, giggling.
Petros put his palm to his face. "Did I just say that out loud?"
"Yup," Emilia nodded.
"Sorry, force of habit. Comes from playing a lot of D&D…and I said that out loud too," Petros sighed.
"Don't feel bad!" Emilia exclaimed. "I'm a huge nerd too."
"A lot of girls say that," Petros sighed.
"Oh, I know," Emilia giggled. "I remember once a girl in my class asked one of my friends if he played 'mind craft'…it's a long story."
"You still haven't told me how you're such a geek," Petros stated, giving her a dry look.
"Well, I write fanfiction for a total of eleven different fandoms, including Pokemon, Hetalia, Ouran and Total Drama; I love anime, and I watch it all in subs; oh…and I can speak fluent Latin and Japanese!"
She then said a sentence in Japanese that the producers had to censor.
"Okay, I believe you!" Petros exclaimed, his palms in the air. "It must be awesome to know four languages."
"Five. I can also speak French," Emilia corrected.
"Five languages," Petros nodded, looking rather impressed. "Admittedly, I can only speak two – English and Armenian."
"Well, that's cool too," Emilia smiled.
[Confessional: Despite being Irish, the writer can only speak one language fluently – the one he is typing!
Petros (Armenia): So, that's what it's like to talk to a girl!
No, I don't like Emilia. I did have a bit of a crush on her, but that was before she left me hanging. Literally!
She better confess to Adrijana, or else I'll…uh…do something!
Emilia (Netherlands): Turns out, Petros has a soft centre! Just like my Lou!
And no, I don't like him. And I doubt he feels the same way.]
(Ferocious Felines – Boys – Beni, Luko, Rikard, Johannes and Anton)
"Honestly, why couldn't we just wear our own shoes?" Luko complained as he paced around the cabin. "I mean, seriously, look at these. The stitching is about to fall off, they're really unstylish, and it's so uncomfortable to walk in them."
"I love how you're saying this while walking around the cabin," Johannes said sarcastically as he sat on his bunk.
"You're so ungrateful," Anton snapped. "In my school, the uniform is a navy sailor suit, and we have to wear black loafers with really pointy toes."
"I'm so glad I don't have a school uniform," Luko sighed. "I don't think I could deal with having to wear the same thing everyday."
"You did fine with it last season," Johannes stated.
"That was just a hoody and sweatpants. No big deal," Luko shrugged. "But seriously, a sailor suit?"
"Welcome to my depressing, depressing life," Anton sighed.
"I don't know why people think that school uniforms are going to help test scores," Rikard said. "My country is up there with the best, and we've never had uniforms."
"I dunno. I kinda wish I had them," Johannes admitted. "I live in this fishing village, and mostly everyone is pretty poor, but then there's this group of kids who are always dressed in Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch who always make fun of what everyone else wears.
They think they're really popular, but the reality is nobody likes them."
"I wish my school was like that," Rikard groaned. "In my school, it's every man for themselves. I don't even deserve to be called a man based on my position."
"Oh, don't say that…" Johannes began.
"I can't go a week without getting punched up when I'm at my locker!" Rikard exclaimed. "And I've been getting it a lot in the last few months. Being told I was only picked to further the gay agenda…and I'm starting to think they were right. I mean, look what happened in that wrestling challenge.
I didn't even take a single punch before falling. I'm such a pussy…"
"You are not a pussy!" Anton exclaimed. "There are a load of great things about you! Savour your good years while you still have them! I'm too late, but you're not! Make the most of it!"
"Er…thanks," Rikard said awkwardly.
"If you'll excuse me, I have to go powder my face," Anton said, and he stomped out of the cabin.
"Excuse me!" Beni exclaimed as he walked back into the cabin at the same time. "I have to show you something awesome!" he exclaimed, jumping and down.
"What is it?" Johannes asked, standing up.
"Come with me. It's a surprise," was Beni's reply, before he bounced out of the cabin.
The other three guys looked at each other in confusion before rushing after him.
(Zany Zebras – Girls – Ilene, Carolyn, Emilia, Adrijana and Sveda)
"Ah, I've…uh…just been for a…a…nice hot shower!" Emilia exclaimed as she came back into the cabin, and she started laughing hysterically.
"Um…why are you laughing?" Carolyn asked confusedly as she stood up from tying her shoes.
"I…don't know," Emilia replied as she spun and jumped around the cabin.
[Confessional: I do know and even I'm confused
Emilia (Netherlands): [sighs] Okay, I'm a terrible liar but it's not like anyone suspects anything. It's not beyond me to go a bit loopy once in a while!
[she stands on the toilet and yells]
My name is Emilia and j'aime grand coq et groot vet prostituees! 私はヘタリア大好き, et volo enim nubere Italia et Germania!
Marios may speak 43 languages, but not one of them is Japanese! I am superi…woah!
[she slips and falls into the toilet bowl headfirst]
HEY, SOMEBODY HELP ME!]
Sveda walked out of the cabin and onto the porch, where Pavils, Finn and Aleksander were hanging out.
"Hi Finn," she said in a flirty tone, sitting down beside him.
"Oh, hey, Sveda," Finn smiled. "Did you…uh…come to join us?"
"I wouldn't so much say us, as I would say you," Sveda replied, and she started to caress his cheek. "Hey, where's toilet?"
"The toilet?" Finn repeated, before pointing ahead. "It's right there in that building in front of you."
"No, not the toilet, Toilet!" Sveda exclaimed, looking a little frustrated. "Or is his name Bathroom?"
"Or, you mean Lou?" Pavils sniggered. "He's in bed with the chickenpox."
"What's the chickenpox? Is he our mascot?" Sveda asked.
Finn put his head in his hand. "Sveda," he said sweetly. "Why don't you just sit down and be quiet."
"Okay," Sveda said excitedly, and she glomped Finn and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
[Confessional: Lol, I suck at summaries
Finn (Ireland): Normally I'd be psyched to have a girl interested in me, but Sveda…she just seemed a bit too air-headed for my tastes.
I hope I can break it to her slowly
Sveda (Azerbaijan): Yeah, I think I'm overdoing the whole 'dumb girl' act, maybe I could tone it down…and when I do, I could convince Finn that it was him who made me do it! I just thought of that!
Hey, I'm still learning. But this will be great practice for my degree.]
(Shady Sharks – Boys – Zeferino, Hadi, Symon, Berto and Shay)
Zeferino sat up in his bed and stretched.
"Ah, what a lovely morning!" he exclaimed.
"Speak for yourself," Hadi snapped. He was sitting on his bed and getting dressed. "My girlfriend is gone, and it's only day 3. Who voted her off, anyway?"
Berto, Shay and Symon raised their hands.
"What!?" Hadi exclaimed. "But why?"
"I'm really sorry, but we had to vote one of your alliance members off. It was necessary for us to get farther in the game," Berto explained. "You all made it farther than the rest of us last year, so it's only fair."
"Perhaps, but there's no need to be so harsh about it," Hadi sulked. "I'm going to take a shower."
With that, he stomped out and slammed the door.
"What have we done?" Symon sighed, hanging his head in shame.
[Confessional: You all voted off Dani. Is that so hard to remember?
Berto (San Marino): Of course I feel bad about what I did, but some of us want to make a comeback this year. Dani made it the farthest out of everyone on the team last time, so it was only fair.
Symon (Ukraine): I feel like crap. Hadi's a good guy and he doesn't deserve this, but nobody messes with Alma and gets away with it!
Shay (Russia): I really wanted to vote for Berto last night, but then Jessie had to come over and beat me up! How is she so strong?
Jessie (Italy): I think I'm doing well so far. If I just keep playing dumb, I could make it pretty far this season. Maybe I should form an alliance with Berto…]
"Ah!" Marios exclaimed as he wrapped a towel around his body and stepped out of the cubicle. "Nothing like a nice warm shower before a challenge. I…ack!"
Petros, who had been walking nearby, accidentally crashed into him, making the towel fall on the ground.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry…" Petros said quickly before Marios grabbed him by the shirt
"I think you've seen more than enough of my private parts today!" Marios said in a dark tone as he put his towel back on. "Quit being such a creep or you're going to pay!"
"Yes sir!" Petros said nervously, before running off.
[Confessional: A famous line from Noah comes to mind right now
Petros (Armenia): Arrgh, what is wrong with me!? I seem to keep being in the wrong place at the wrong time! Marios is going to kill me!
Yes, you heard me correctly! Apparently I'm that weak!
Marios (Greece): I have no place in my life for perverts like Petros! If he wants to continue with this carry-on, I hope he likes elimination.]
Outside the Zebra's cabin, Aleksander and Finn were quarrelling.
"Just let me cook!" Aleksander pleaded. "You've got a lot of stuff going for you. Can't you just let me have one purpose on this team?"
"Forget it, Al," Finn sighed. "Now…go find somewhere else to be."
"Whatever," Aleksander snapped, before standing up and stomping off
"Finally, peace and quiet," Finn smiled to himself. "Let's see. What does our team have for brekkie?"
He had a browse through the team's plants, and said every type of crop as he saw it.
"Carrots, radish, celery. All good so far," Finn nodded. "Lima Beans…not so good, and…"
He picked up a summer squash and looked at it weirdly.
"…some kind of squash which looks like a dinosaur! Awesome!"
"Hey, Finn," Sveda said sexily, walking over.
"Oh…Sveda…" Finn responded awkwardly as she knelt down beside him.
"So, what are we having for lunch…breakfast?" Sveda asked. "Excuse me, I'm still learning English."
"Don't worry about it," Finn chuckled, before standing up and picking a fruit off a nearby tree. "Pomegranate?"
"Okay!" Sveda exclaimed, and she took a huge bite out of it. "Ugh! That's horrible!"
Finn sighed and handed her a knife. "Maybe you should cut it up first."
"Oh, good idea!" Sveda smiled, and she took the knife and started stabbing the pomegranate with it.
"Here, let me give you a hand," Finn offered, and he took her wrist. "Just slice into it gently."
"Hey, I'm doing it! I'm doing it!" Sveda cheered. "Thanks, Finn!"
[Confessional: Yes, sexily is a real adverb
Finn (Ireland): She's a work in progress, but if she wants to date me, I've no problem with that. Amazing how quickly a guy's mind can change
Sveda (Azerbaijan): I have to give it to him for not getting frustrated or annoyed. It looks like he's very vulnerable.]
(Ferocious Felines)
Estrella and Stela continued to dig and pick potatoes at their team's garden when they both heard a 'bang!'
"What the heck was that!?" Stela exclaimed.
A very dark and sooty Katerina came up from behind the cabin.
"I got the stove to work!" she reported, an awkward smile on her face.
"Uh…we can see that," Stela nodded. "Say, where are all the guys?"
"Beni said he wanted to show them something," Anton, who was picking beetroots nearby, told them. "They left about ten minutes ago."
"Well, they better come back soon," Estrella said irritably. "They're like my Uncle José. Always trying to get out of chores."
"Here we are!" Beni exclaimed, pointing at a nearby shed with the door wide open.
"It's a…shed," Luko said, in an attempt to be upbeat.
"If you think that's great, you should see what's inside!" Beni exclaimed, and he lead them inside.
"Er…what's this?" Johannes, who was at the back of the group, asked, picking up a metal lock with teethmarks in it.
"Oh…that!" Beni exclaimed, snapping his fingers. "The door was padlocked so I had to bite it off."
"I see," Johannes nodded, looking a little weirded.
"Well, don't just stand out here!" Beni told him, and he grabbed his arm and pulled him in before the shutting the door behind him.
"It's dark…" Luko commented.
"Not anymore!" Beni announced, flicking on a light switch.
The shed was full of shelves with many, many musical instruments.
"Wow, I am in heaven!" Luko exclaimed, and he picked a saxophone of one of the racks.
"You play saxophone?" Johannes asked him.
"I've been learning it since I was seven," Luko stated. "I'm a pro at this."
He took a deep breath and blew into it hard, making a loud and squeaky sounds.
"Eeek!" Rikard screamed, clenching his eyes.
"Haha, that was just a warm up," Luko chuckled. He blew into the mouthpiece again, and started to recite the saxophone solo from Moldova's 2010 Eurovision entry (the one that Marios mentioned earlier).
"Woo!" Rikard cheered, before grabbing a small stringed instrument. "Ukulele solo!"
"Hey, don't leave me behind!" Beni exclaimed before beginning to play a flute.
Johannes sighed as he took a violin from another shelf.
"I haven't played this in a while but…" he said before beginning to play.
[Confessional: Two Nordics, a Balkan and…whatever race Moldova is part of…is it Slavic?
Rikard (Finland): [he sighs] He just keeps continuing to impress me.
Beni (Moldova): Rikard is cute when he plays the ukulele. I wonder if he'd be interested. Though I've also seen Estrella giving me the eyes…
…maybe they're up for a threesome!
Johannes (Iceland): I must say, Luko plays a mean saxophone. Beni was awesome to bring us here…even if he did bite off the lock.]
"Hey, look what I…" Berto walked over to the cabin carrying a large fish that he'd caught. "What are you doing!?"
Jessie was sitting on the soil in front of the cabin and eating grapes off the vines without her hands.
"Ee-ing gra-es," Jessie replied, her mouth full. She swallowed and got up before saying, "By the way, I wanted to talk to you. Italian to Italian."
"I'm not…Italian," Berto snapped.
"Marios calls Lou Greek, so I can call you Italian," Jessie shrugged. "Anyways, I noticed you trying to vote off Dani last night."
"And succeeding too," Berto noted.
"Yeah…not exactly," Jessie replied.
"Is this another moment where you say the opposite so you can be 'rebellious' or whatever?" Berto asked.
"Oh no, I got over that ages ago, but the others don't need to know," Jessie stated. "Anyways, you got Symon and Alma to vote for Dani, but I was the one who threatened Shay."
"Is that why he was on the ground clutching his balls?" Berto asked, and Jessie nodded her head.
"Dude is a butter fingers compared to me," she shrugged. "Anyways, I believe you owe me a favour so…are you interested in an alliance?"
"Huh!?" Berto exclaimed, dropping the fish in confusion.
"We were both kicked off pretty early last time, but I think we could get far together," Jessie stated. "What do you say?"
"Er…sure, what the heck?" Berto shrugged, and he reached out and shook her hand, but Jessie denied.
"Nah. Last time I shook someone's hand, they ended up in hospital," she said. "Now come on, get the fish on the stove. Alma and Symon have already cooked potatoes and chick peas."
"Cool," Berto nodded, and they both walked off.
A few seconds later, Hadi poked his head from the side of the cabin.
[Confessional: What's the difference between a lentil and a chick pea? You can't pay to have a lentil on your chest. *rimshot*
Hadi (Israel): First they get my girl voted off, now they're allying against me!?
This means war!]
"Okay, everybody!" Lara yelled via a megaphone. "It's time for your third challenge!"
"I wonder what…" Carolyn began excitedly as she walked along the grass with Adrijana, when they were interrupted by Emilia who was continuing to laugh.
Adrijana groaned and put her palm to her forehead.
[Confessional: Sometimes people laugh hysterically when they've been mentally scarred…
Carolyn (United Kingdom): Hello, it's me chickencarrie, here in the farm confessional with last year's winner, Adrijana!
Adrijana (Slovenia): Hi!
Carolyn: So, it's time for my daily vlog. Normally Emilia would be joining me, but she's been laughing uncontrollably for some reason.
Adrijana: It's a mystery
Carolyn: Anyway, we're a few minutes away from getting our third challenge, and I'm super psyched! How about you, Adrijana?
Adrijana: Getting tortured by my cousin? Yeah…I'm psyched.
Carolyn: Haha, I wish we had a comments section or something right now. Then people could send us dares or something.
Adrijana: [she narrows her eyes] You really take this vlogging thing seriously, don't you?]
"Good to see you're all here…" Lara began, before having a scour around the four teams. "Where's Lou?"
"He's in bed with the chickenpox," Finn explained.
"The chickenpox? He's seventeen!" Lara exclaimed.
"Well, apparently he's spent so little time with other people that…OOF!" Pavils cried when Emilia elbowed him in the stomach.
"I'll go get him," she sighed, running back to the cabin.
"Well, that stopped the laughing," Adrijana said to Carolyn, who giggled.
Lou sat up in his bottom bunk, and he was scratching relentlessly.
"Lou!" Emilia exclaimed as she rushed into the cabin. "Come on, it's time for the challenge."
"I don't think I can participate today," Lou sighed. "This itches like hell!"
"Come on. Get out of bed!" Emilia exclaimed, and she grabbed his legs and pulled him out of bed.
"NO! NO!" Lou screamed as tried to cling on.
"We don't have much time. Let's get you dressed," Emilia said him, and she grabbed a white shirt which was hanging nearby.
[Confessional: Aren't they adorable?
Lou (Cyprus): [facepalms] Great, now there's footage of my girlfriend forcing me to dress myself on TV. Awesome!
[he groans and continues to scratch himself]
Emilia (Netherlands): Omg! I had to babysit this five year old last week, and I brought Lou along with me, and he had chickenpox! Lou must have been infected.
By the way, I know I was harsh, but I needed to let out some steam over Adrijana not telling me about Marios. I thought we were friends.]
Most of the other contestants laughed as they watched Emilia pull a now fully-dressed Lou across the grass towards them.
"Okay! I'm getting up!" Lou snapped as he squirmed out of her grip and rushed over.
"Aw, you're just like an old married couple," Carolyn said sweetly.
"Now's a bad time, Carolyn," Lou frowned.
"Okay, jeez," Carolyn sighed putting her hands in the air.
"Now that we're all here, in some form or another!" Lara announced. "Let me announce today's challenge. You will be cosplaying each other!"
"Say what?" Finn repeated in confusion.
Lara groaned and took out a notecard.
"Cosplaying is dressing up and acting as a character. They can be real or fictional, as long as they are not you," she explained. "So today, you will be playing the roles of each other. One by one, you will come up and pick a name out of this cup in my hand, and you will get the name of one of the contestants. If you get yourself you will have to pick again."
Marios folded his arms and groaned at this.
[Confessional: It's a me, Marios!
Marios (Greece): [he scoffs] Honestly, it's bad enough when this show recycles old ideas, but now they're getting challenge ideas from popular Total Drama fanfictions?
Lara (Slovenia, Host): Hey, don't look at me. It's the producers who come up with most of the challenges.]
"The producers did a draw to decide who gets to pick first," Lara continued. "And first to pick is Aleksander."
"Okay, let's see who I choose," Aleksander said he staggered up before shutting his eyes and putting his hand in the cup. When he opened his eyes, he looked at the slip of paper he'd chosen.
"Adrijana," he nodded. "I can do that. All I need to do is wear a load of eye liner and act all depressed. Ugh…I have a million euros and I'm still not happy, and my cousin is such a bitch even though she's basically my clone."
"Ugh, if only I had a rock on me," Adrijana sighed, shaking her head.
"Next up, Vincenz," Lara continued.
"Okay," the Swiss contestant replied, and he also took a slip of paper out of the cup. "Sveda – who's she?"
"ME!" Sveda exclaimed, before bursting into song. "Me, me, me-me-me-me-me!"
"Got it," Vincenz nodded, looking a little weirded out, before walking back over to his team.
"Next up, Anton!" Lara announced.
"Berto," the Polish emo sighed.
"Sanna," nodded Rikard.
"Carolyn!" Tyge exclaimed.
"Shay," read Finn.
"Stela," said Eloise.
"Mirzo," Zeferino sighed.
"Amanda!" Sveda cheered.
"Luko," Katerina smiled.
"Symon," Agnessa said uncertainly.
"Finn…" Ilene said nervously as he read her slip of paper.
"Assenga," Jessie stated.
"It's Agnessa," Lara corrected.
"I can say it however I want," Jessie snapped before walking back to her team.
[Confessional: That's Lanoissefnoc to you!
Berto (San Marino): I'm not really sure why Jessie is holding onto this act, but hey, she's on my side, so I shouldn't complain
Jessie (Italy): My tactic is that if I keep playing dumb, people will remember it during the voting in the merge.
Hadi (Israel): I have to say, Berto and Jessie are playing well.
I could try and expose them, but I doubt anyone will believe me, or even care.
Besides, Berto said he was trying to eliminate us because we made it farther. But I didn't make the merge, so I should be safe for now.]
"Beni!" Lara announced. "Come and pick who you will be cosplaying as!"
"Oh, goody!" the genki Moldovan cheered, and he skipped up to the host and picked a name out of the cup. "Hadi. He likes computers and video games…how hard can this be?"
Hadi frowned at this.
[Confessional: He's got a hard drive *rimshot*
Hadi (Israel): Is that really all a lot of people see in me? Come on, there's more to me than that!
Yes, I have my own interests, but does it really define me?]
"Ilene," Sanna nodded once she unfolded her slip of paper.
"Fifteen people have now been given the names of the people they are cosplaying. Next up is Alma!" Lara announced.
"Good luck," Symon whispered to her as his girl…I mean lady-friend walked over to Lara and selected a slip of paper from the cup.
"Emilia," she said once she unfolded it, before shaking her head. "Yay! This is awesome!"
She then stopped and blushed.
"Er…excuse me," she said nervously.
"Calm down, I won't be offended," Emilia assured her.
"It…doesn't matter," Alma replied.
[Confessional: A-G-L-E-T is what matters!
Alma (Croatia): I've never acted before – that's more Symon's department, so this could be a challenge.]
"Marios," Anka nodded, before putting on a lisp. "Ah, look at me, I'm obsheshed with shtupid s*** dat nobody caresh about!"
"Haha, I can't wait to see who gets you," Marios chuckled.
"Marios, you're up next!" Lara announced.
"Okay! Come on, hand, don't fail me!" Marios exclaimed as he wiggled his fingers about before closing his eyes, reaching into the cup, and taking out a slip of paper.
"Would you look at that? Petros!" he exclaimed, holding it up for everyone to see. "This…should be very easy."
Petros shook his head and he stared down at his shoes.
"Next to pick…Berto!" Lara announced.
"Zeferino," Berto nodded.
"Beni!" Johannes exclaimed. "Awesome!"
He skipped merrily back to his team, but accidentally tripped over a rock on the way.
"It's not easy being me, is it?" Beni chuckled.
"Estrella! Piece of cake!" Shay exclaimed. "I'll just do cartwheels and stuff."
With that, he attempted to go head over heels on the way back. He managed to do it successfully, but he wasn't able to stop once he started, and he accidentally crashed into a tree.
"And apparently it's impossible to be me," Estrella giggled, giving Beni a nudge.
"Dani," Tia stated as she walked back to her team.
"Simon!" Lara announced.
"Actually, it's pronounced 'Sih-mon'," Symon corrected, before quickly adding, "And I'll just pick," when he noticed a frown on Lara's face.
He reached into the cup and pulled the first slip of paper he touched.
"Rikard," he said once he unfolded it, before shaking his head and exclaiming flamboyantly – "Omg! I got Rikard! This is like, so totally awesome!"
"Hey, I like, don't, talk like that anymore," Rikard protested.
"You kidding me?" Luko chuckled.
"Bah, whatever," he snapped.
"Estrella," Lara continued. "You're next!"
"Eloise," Esterella read, before giving a snooty sniff. "I could have picked someone better."
Eloise stuck out her tongue at this.
"Katerina," Stela nodded.
"Tyge," said Pavils, sticking out his lower lip in satisfaction.
"Johannes," read Petros.
"Anton," read Lou, before scratching his skin again.
"Vincenz," stated Amanda.
"Tia!" announced Hadi.
"Hurry up!" Lara yelled as Carolyn had her hand in the cup for thirty seconds.
"I'm being dramatic," Carolyn protested, before finally pulling out a name. "Lou!"
"Awesome! I got Pavils!" Adrijana cheered, to which Pavils scowled.
"Just one person left – Luko!" Lara announced.
"Okay!" the Serbian exclaimed excitedly, and he picked one of the three remaining slips of paper out of the cup. "Anka – that shouldn't be too hard."
"I'm easier than your mother!" Anka yelled at him.
"Do you even know what that means?" Amanda asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah. It's easy for someone to cosplay their mom. I'm not stupid," Anka sighed, rolling her eyes.
"Apparently," Amanda replied sarcastically before turning away.
"So, looks like the challenge is set," Lara stated. "Grab some wigs and switch clothes with each other, and then you can go back to your cabins and relax, but remember to keep in character. Later on, we will call you to go on a walk in the woods. The people playing male characters will go to the guy's side of the cabins, and female characters will go to the girl's side.
At the end of the day, you will be judged by our celebrity staff, Noah and Dawn, who, as you can see, are also taking part in this challenge."
"Hey guys!" Noah exclaimed in a high squeaky voice. "It is such a pleasure to judge such a wonderful contest. I can already sense the winner."
"Yeah, 'cuz that's exactly how I sound," Dawn said sarcastically in a deeper voice. "Basically, we're each going to give a mark out of 5 to every contestant at the end of the challenge. Got it?"
There was a chorus of 'yeah's from the crowd of contestants.
"Good," smiled Noah. "Then let us begin."
With that, the 34 remaining contestants walked back to their cabins.
[Confessional: From now on, in spirit of today's challenge, I'm a Bus Toilet.
Symon (Ukraine): I think I've got a good chance of doing well in this challenge. I mean, come on, I spent half of last season pretending to be someone else!]
(Ferocious Felines – Boys – Beni (Hadi), Johannes (Beni), Katerina (Luko) and Anton (Berto))
"Yay! I'm going to the cabin! I'm going to the cabin!" Johannes cheered as he skipped and pranced towards the door. He was wearing a brown wig and Beni's cowboy hat.
"Hey, wait for me! I'm, like, so full of energy, because…I dunno…that's me!" Katerina added as she ran alongside him.
"Hey!" Beni panted as he 'attempted' to keep up. "I can't run for very long."
"Are you wearing mud on your face?" Katerina asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh yeah, it really captures Hadi's Arabian skin. Do you like it?" Beni asked, before slapping himself in the face. "I mean, this is my natural colour. What are you talking about?"
"I like fishing, apparently," Anton sighed as he walked up towards them. He was wearing Berto's sunhat on his head.
[Confessional: And now my spirit is gone. I'll just be the confessional. How are they doing so far?
Noah (Canada): [in a creepy voice] Beni had a brief out of character moment. That could definitely be a costing point when we are deciding who to give points to.
Dawn (Canada): [who is alongside him] Haha, I love how you didn't mention the mud on his face.]
Meanwhile, on the girl's side of the cabin, Luko (Anka), Estrella (Eloise), Rikard (Sanna) and Stela (Katerina) were 'arguing' with each other.
"How many times have I told you not to use my lip-gloss!?" Estrella screamed as she pretended to wrestle with Luko.
"Finders keepers bitch!" Luko snapped.
"Will you two break it up!?" Rikard yelled as he wheeled himself over to them.
Luko made a weird sound effect as he pretended to punch Rikard.
"Ouch!" Rikard screamed. "It is so on sister!"
"So, Kelija, things aren't looking so hot right now…" Stela sighed as she held the cat in her hands.
Kelija hissed at her before jumping on her face and clawing her.
[Confessional: Nobel Prize of Cat Literature goes to…Claudia Butt!
Stela (Romania): What is Kelija's issue with being near other people besides Katerina!? First Tia and now me? I'm surprised she hasn't gone after Estrella yet.
Katerina (Macedonia): Kelija was just like that the first time I bought her. She was very attached to my friend, who owned her mother, and it took forever for her to like me.
Hopefully she'll get used to the other girls in my cabin soon.]
Over at the Zany Zebras, the 'girls' were hanging out in their side of the cabin.
Sveda, who was playing the role of Amanda, sat on one side of the room, while Aleksander, as Adrijana, sat on the other side.
"I'm Aranda, I'm all manipulative and stuff," Sveda said cheerfully.
"Ugh! Shut up!" Aleksander whined. "Can you get me a knife and an MP3 player, so I can slit my wrists and listen to Good Charlotte?"
[Confessional: Your role is Adrijana, not Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way!
Sveda (Azerbaijan): I see no need to try in this challenge. I could play the role of Amanda perfectly if I wanted, but I need to play dumb, and if we lose, it's between Pavils and Aleksander.]
The two 'girls' on the Zebras contrasted with the seven 'guys' at the other side of the cabin.
"Honestly, Lou, why did you even bother to come back!? I'm surprised your mother can bear to see your face right now!" Adrijana yelled at Carolyn.
"With the amount of douche-bag-ness from you last season, I'm surprise you still have a face at all, Pavils!" Carolyn yelled back.
Emilia, who was playing Aleksander, laughed hysterically at this.
"What are you laughing at, you little punk?" Adrijana yelled at her.
"Oh, can I not show some emotion without you being all bitchy?" Emilia snapped.
"Hey, guys, can't we all just chillax?" Pavils, who was wearing a blonde wig and Tyge's hat, asked, as he walked in between to three.
Adrijana responded by giving Pavils a hard punch in the face.
"Ouch!" Pavils screamed. "You bitch!"
"Tyge, what's gotten into you?" Adrijana frowned in mock-concern. "It's not like you to be angry."
Pavils smirked before replying, "I must be smelling tobacco."
"Oh, tobacco!" Lou, who was sitting on the ground wearing white makeup, cried. "A short way to eternal torture and doom! Though this horrible skin condition I am currently going through is a great simulation!"
Ilene, who was sitting on a bottom bunk wearing a red wig, giggled at this.
"Hey, Finn, could you back me up here!?" Adrijana yelled.
"Huh?" Ilene said nervously.
"Just say something," Adrijana sighed.
"Um…how da boyz?" Ilene said nervously.
The others immediately spluttered with laughter.
[Confessional: You know all those stereotypical Irish accents…they all exist
Ilene (Belgium): Oh, I'm going to suck at this challenge! I don't do good with performing in front of people – I can't even sing in front of anyone besides my closest friend, Karin. She was the one who made this headband.
Finn (Ireland): [he claps] I feel so bad for Ilene. She seems pretty nice, and I've seen the video of her singing. She's way better than Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift, though that's an understatement. Haha
Emilia (Netherlands): [she is still giggling] I felt so bad for laughing but…wow! Oh well, the season is still young, she'll get over her shyness soon.]
Over at the Shady Sharks' place, the 'boys' were doing rather fine.
"Omg, omg! This challenge is, like, so awesome!" Symon cheered, doing an excellent impersonation of Rikard. "I get to impersonate someone who isn't me? Do you have any idea how good that is for my self-esteem?"
"Oh, I'm sure you're doing great," Agnessa sighed. She was wearing a ski mask on her head. "Me, I'm just stuck being my bland old self. With all my ugly defects."
Symon gasped at this, but managed to do so in character, "You're so cruel! Wah-wah!"
He waved his arm around like a fan as he did so.
"No need to be so insensitive, Symon," Zeferino, who was playing the part of Mirzo, sighed. "Studies show s…s-six…"
He stopped talking and started to laugh.
"Are you okay?" Berto, who was portraying Zeferino, asked.
"I'm sorry, I'm not much of an actor," Zeferino sighed. "Let me try again…6% of studies show that…oh, what was supposed to say again?"
He started to laugh again, and the other three in the room sighed.
[Confessional: He has the voice of an angel, but the performance of an accordion player.
Zeferino (Portugal): Ugh, I'm not much of an actor. I still get stage fright to this day, and unless I'm singing, it won't go away. I'm going to be a target if we lose.
Symon (Ukraine): [he shakes in excitement] Omg, I'm having so much fun doing this that I'm even making confessionals in my character! Agnessa, by the way, you can't see it just by looking at me, since I'm still in still in my excitable façade and I'm using a fake high-pitched Finnish accent, but I'm pissed with you right now!]
Meanwhile on the 'girls' side…
"Look, at me!" Shay exclaimed, using a 'girly' voice (which sounded very wheezy). "I'm a gymnastic-ism-ist!"
He stood at the side of the room and did a cartwheel, and ended up falling on his head.
"Careful!" Alma exclaimed. "You could break your neck! Get up!"
"Yes, because that is definitely something that Emilia would say," Hadi, who was wearing a blonde wig, and seven clip-on piercings in his forehead said sarcastically.
"And Tia would definitely act cynical would someone could be seriously hurt," Alma snapped.
"Whatever. Let's see who's sorry when we get a second loss," Hadi sighed.
"Hmph," Alma replied angrily.
After a few seconds of silence, Jessie randomly blurted out, "I used to live on the streets!"
[Confessional: And you once got arrested for stealing an apple!
Hadi (Israel): The girl's side is totally sucking! Hopefully the others will pull through…we have Symon on the team, so we should do fine.
Alma (Croatia): Ugh, does Hadi have no respect for people's well being? Shay could have been seriously hurt!
Shay (Russia): I'm fine! Okay? I'm not perfect at cartwheels, but I've got muscles of steel.
[he flexes one and kisses it]
Those losers will regret ever calling me a rip-off of Owen!]
"Did you know that the sun goes around the moon!? Fun fact!" Anka exclaimed as she paced around the 'guys' side of the cabin wearing a 'woolen waistcoat'
Marios' eye twitched at this, but he did his best to keep himself from going out of character – not that he was really in character to begin with, it was more of his perspective of Petros
"Hey Marios," he said in a creepy voice as he came up to Anka. "Can I see your kiwis one more time?"
Petros, who was sitting on his bunk nearby wearing Johannes' fedora and blonde wig, rolled his eyes and sighed at this.
As Marios tried to put his arm around Anka, the Montenegrin immediately reacte by giving him a hard punch in the stomach, and sent him flying across the room.
Petros couldn't help but laugh at this, and he said, "Marios, I would smooth-talk you into doing something ridiculous right now, but it looks like karma beat me to it."
"Karma," Amanda, who was sitting cross-legged at the other side of the room, said wisely. "Such a beautiful invention. Brought to Earth by the almighty God himself. Bless his holy soul!"
[Confessional: Isn't karma Buddhist? And she was impersonating Vincenz, in case you couldn't already tell.
Anka (Montenegro): Did you know that there are not 12 days of Christmas – there are thirteen. There is a secret day between January 3rd and 4th called Moos-day, which is when the cows came to the stable where Jesus Christ Superstar was born!
The following day, the three blind mice men came with Goldilocks, Frankenstein, and Murray Mints!
[she laughs to herself] I've got this Marios thing down.]
Noah and Dawn were sitting at a table in front of a large CCTV monitor with eight screens, watching Anka inside her cabin continuing to blabber on.
"She's not even using any concrete facts," Dawn groaned.
"Well, I still find it amusing!" Noah exclaimed enthusiastically. "Now come on, we still need to check on the girls in the Mantises' cabin."
"Hello, it's me, Carolyn, coming to you live from the Mantis' cabin," Tyge announced in an over the top British accent. "I'm here with my roomies, Ilene."
He pointed at Sanna.
"…Sveda…"
He pointed at Vincenz
"…Dani…"
He pointed at Tia
"…and Stela!"
He pointed at Eloise, who came up to him and said, "I bet you that they're going to air this scene on TV. Ten euros. Take it or leave it."
"I'll pass, thank you very much," Tyge nodded. "I do not have my money on me, and it's only pounds anyway."
"Oh, what'll it take to have someone gamble with me!?" Eloise cried.
"Dani, do you have anything to say?" Tyge asked, moving the camera over to Tia.
"No, but I'm just really happy that I'm not in the same room as Alma," Tia stated. "Because I hate her because of one or two arguments we had last season and I can't find the heart to make amends."
"That's…jolly good," Tyge said awkwardly. "Sveda?"
"Huh?" Vincenz said in confusion. He shook his head and hesitated, "Er…hi…I'm Sveda…er…I'm dumb?"
Tyge chuckled and rolled his eyes at this.
"She's got that right," he whispered to the camera. "And Ilene, are you going to say something? Ilene?"
"Uh…" Sanna said, shaking frantically. "Hi…"
"Ah well, better than nothing," Tyge shrugged.
[Confessional: Really? Is having no television in your house worse than having half a television?
Noah (Canada) Tia, as much as I love satire, that's not part of the challenge!]
So yeah, there was a lot of stuff in this chapter, and I hope it wasn't too much for you all to take in.
Yes, Marios and Adrijana are a couple. Since Adrios doesn't roll off the tongue very well, I guess their ship should be 'Marijana', though that just looks like 'marijuana'. Fifth couple of the show now, unless you're already counting Symon and Alma.
Next time, the contestants go through the woods whilst trying to keep in character, and the team with the least amount of points loses. And one member of the team gets eliminated. Who will it be?
Please review with your opinion, and the next chapter should be up soon! ;)
