Last time on Total Drama...
Our remaining thirty two contestants engaged in a fun little game of laser tag! The contestants split up into different groups of varying sizes and battled it out to see who'd come out on top! Sam's hardly hidden secret surfaced, revealing he had once made out with Lindsay, among other things. With Sam having cheated on Dakota with Lindsay, Lindsay having cheated on Tyler with Sam, and Tyler cheating on Lindsay with Alejandro, things will get spicy! Blaineley made a vow to become one of the most popular contestants after Sierra revealed she lacked ratings or shares on her Total Drama blog, and Scott was further buried in humiliation and grievance after Dawn put him in his place. In the end, it was the Gophers who unsurprisingly lost, after Izzy got nearly her whole team trapped in an abandoned mine shaft. We said goodbye to Total Drama's craziest player, and now thirty one remain. Whose brain will bust in the upcoming mind boggling challenge? Witness it now on...
TOTAL. DRAMA. FINALE.
The Killer Gophers, sans Eva, sit at their table in one of the most uncomfortable, and awkward silences ever. Now with three consecutive losses, there seemed to be no hope for their team. The fact that the team is divided into three ways isn't helping either. Eva runs solo, Beth and LeShawna are allies, while Brick, Noah, and Katie all are on their own. LeShawna and Beth however are working to get Katie to join them in order to team up against Eva. Noah is indifferent to literally everything, and Brick seems to have a liking for Eva. It's becoming more noticeable that Brick began doing things for Eva, and listening to her every command. No one is able to figure out if this is just Brick following his bond to chivalry, or his somewhat perverted need to be dominated by someone. Eva bursts through the mess hall doors and the room falls silent as Eva stomps over to where Brick is sitting.
"Get up, give me your seat, and go get me breakfast." Eva commands.
"Oh." Brick mumbles, standing up. "I was - "
"NOW!" Eva screams, sending Brick to scurry off.
Brick returns with Eva's food. She takes a few bites of it and spits it back out. She clutches the plate and throws it to her side, accidentally smashing it into Brick's face. Brick slumps over the table, hitting his head on the corner and collapsing to the ground. All of the mess hall look at Eva in pure shock. Everyone knows she has anger issues, but the way she's behaving has never before been seen. Of course it was an accident, but with wild accusations quietly traveling across the mess hall, everyone believed it was on purpose. Chef comes out of the kitchen and checks Brick to see what his damage is. He's unconscious! Chef sighs, and takes Brick to the Total Drama Infirmary, which is nothing more than a few pitched up tents with some sub-par medical equipment. Now with only five players to everyone else's eight or nine, winning doesn't seem to be anywhere in the Gophers' sights. But the losses didn't end there, as the Gophers are heading for yet another teammate down, courtesy of Eva.
"Ya' know girl, we've had enough of you." LeShawna says. Beth and Katie gasp and turn to Eva, to see rage boiling in her eyes. "This tough girl act has got to go. I said it once, I'll say it again! You ain't helpin' this team by tryna' be all tough leader gal. Maybe we're all scared to even try at challenges because you're always on us!"
"Nice excuse." Eva scoffs. "Maybe Izzy shouldn't have led us into a death trap. Maybe Cameron should have manned up and actually fought Staci. Maybe Owen shouldn't have crashed through that glass bowl and gotten the one fishtail we needed to win! Blame me all you want, blame my leadership and me wanting our team to win. It's all of your idiotic mistakes that keep us losing. I just can't wait for you to screw up so you can go home."
"She has a point." Katie adds. Beth and LeShawna look at Katie in surprise. It's inconceivable to them that anyone would try to defend Eva in any capacity! The possibility of Katie siding against Eva now seemed like something that would never happen. "Look guys, Eva is mean. We know that, but she has been trying to encourage our team to do good. We are responsible for our own actions." Katie says, shrugging. She catches Beth's and LeShawna's disappointed looks, and sinks down on her seat.
"Exactly." Eva chuckles, happy someone is siding with her.
"But Katie! We need you to side with us!" Beth blurts out, much to LeShawna's dismay.
"What?!" Eva screams. "You're trying to stage a coup against me? Really! We'll see how that goes." Eva turns to Katie and Noah, gaining their attention. "Pick a side: Me, or LeShawna and Beth."
"You can't be serious?" Noah asks, annoyed and put up with the petty squabbles of his team.
"Fine!" LeShawna shouts, giving into the fight. "Pick a side. Her or us!"
"I..." Katie pauses and looks back and forth between Eva, and Beth and LeShawna. She knows there will be consequences for choosing one over the other, but a decision needs to be made. Not wanting to disappoint her two not-so-close friends, Katie says; "...chose LeShawna and Beth."
"That's right!" LeShawna cheers, raising her hand up to high five Katie. Katie chuckles anxiously and high fives LeShawna, unsure of her decision. Katie looks at Eva, whose frozen with boiling anger.
Eva screams in rage, and with one sweeping gesture knocks all the plates and silverware off of the table. She grips the table, slowly starting to lift it up. Noah, Katie and Beth scream, jumping off their seats. LeShawna calmly gets off, standing her ground against Eva. The entire mess hall goes quiet, watching as Eva and LeShawna stare each other down. Eva, with the force of inconceivable anger, holds the table over her head. Out of nowhere, she throws it to the ground. The table slides forward, knocking into LeShawna. She stumbles back, knocking herself unconscious on the floor. Once more, Chef comes in and carries LeShawna off to the Infirmary. Noah, Katie and Beth stare at Eva in disbelief, their numbers advantage seriously ruined for the day's challenge.
Eva:
"LeShawna was supposed to move, and Brick shouldn't have been near me. Is this the fault of my anger? No. Those two were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. If they had moved then maybe they wouldn't be in the Infirmary right now! Of course everyone here is going to think I'm trying to kill people. Hey, I hate my team, but I'd get more satisfaction watching them take the Lift of Losers, not watching them be taken away in body bags."
Noah:
"Is it just me, or does Eva lose a screw each day? She's just as crazy as Izzy...in her own way though. I know she wants to win and all that annoying jazz, but she seriously is going to end up killing all of us before the first merge. I'm starting to question myself and wonder if this is really worth ten million dollars."
Katie:
"I kinda' feel like I just started a war on my team. Now it's like, the girls against Eva! Then there's Brick and Noah but who even really bothers with them? I totally shouldn't have even answered the question! Why do we have to pick sides?! Why can't we just play the game as a team and beat the others?!"
Beth:
"I'm actually scared for my life now. What if Eva kills me next?! I don't want to die! I'm too young - and beautiful! Is there a way our entire team can get a restraining order against Eva? Maybe Chris can find some legal lawyer way to get Eva kicked off before she claims another victim! Oh, let's get Courtney's lawyers! Maybe if we ask her nicely she'll let us borrow them...right?"
After it was confirmed that the two Infirmary attendees would be perfectly fine, the commotion died down and breakfast resumes as normal. While the Gophers continue to eat in a painful silence, the Rats are have a rather upbeat breakfast with positive conversations.. Even though they didn't come in first with the laser tag challenge, they won the first three and that's enough to put them in a good mood. The team sees themselves on a winning streak, and once more are trying to figure out how they can keep that streak and prevent anyone from their team having to go home. Lindsay sits in Tyler's lap, being spoon fed by him like a baby; Harold sits on one end of the table, annoying Justin and Alejandro with useless information; and Bridgette, Dawn, Dakota and Courtney sit on the opposite end of the table and discuss the upcoming challenge.
"I wonder what treacherous challenges Chris will torment us with?" Dawn ponders. "I do hope we can receive a break from all these body breaking challenges and can give it a rest for one day!"
"I actually know what it is!" Bridgette chirps.
"Tell, do tell!" Dakota says, leaning closer to Bridgette with anticipation.
"I got to see a preview on the Aftermath show - which y'all should totally watch by the way!" Bridgette begins.
"You still do that?" Courtney asks, seemingly disgusted. "I didn't think a show like that could actually stay on the air. I guess once you throw in any run-of-the-mill-party-guy and his girlfriend to host it, it's fine." she says, clearly holding a serious amount of jealousy.
"Anyway..." Bridgette continues, ignoring Courtney's insensitive jab. "...the challenge won't be anything super crazy. Basically, all four teams will be at the amphitheatre and we're going to have to answer Total Drama trivia questions. It's basically like a game show!"
"This will be easy! I was a C.I.T., if everyone justs follows my lead and listens to me, we should be fine." Courtney boasts.
"Hey, don't try to be taking charge, Misses Bossypants!" Dakota warns. "Have you seen what's happening on the Gophers team? We don't want that to happen to us! We have to work together! No one gets special treatment."
"That's ironic." Alejandro mumbles underneath his breath from the other side of the table. Dakota turns to Alejandro and raises her eyebrows, confused by his remark. "I know about your interning." Alejandro whispers to Dakota. Dakota gasps in shock and covers her mouth. She scoots closer to Alejandro in an effort to keep their conversation more private.
"How do you know about that?!" Dakota whispers, clearly shocked and put off.
"I heard you talking about it with Chris on the very first day. If you think you're safe from elimination because of that, you're dead wrong. I dare you to see if that privilege will save you." Alejandro threateningly whispers. "I've been keeping track of the 'help' you've been doing, and when the times is right, I'm taking you down." he says. Dakota stands up, unresponsive from shock. She walks back to the other end of the table and sits back down with her head down. The female teammates glare over to Alejandro, assuming he's up to his usual tactics. Alejandro rolls his eyes and focuses on Tyler; who's now sitting in Lindsay's lap. Alejandro clenches his fists in anger and walks over to Tyler, grabs him by his headband and drags him off into the kitchen. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Alejandro angrily mutters.
"Dude, the F is your deal?!" Tyler asks, completely in awe by Alejandro's display of sudden anger.
"What is that?" Alejandro asks, pointing outside the kitchen and over to a clueless Lindsay; who's trying to cut her pancakes with the dull side of her knife.
"She is my girlfriend." Tyler simply says as he walks away. Alejandro grunts in anger. He grabs Tyler and throws him against the wall, out of sight from the other contestants.
"Look, Tyler..." Alejandro begins, cooling off and displaying a faux friendliness. "...we've established that we have feelings for each other. I like you, and you like me. You can't deny it. It would be very foolish of you to keep fraternizing with Lindsay. In fact, it might lead to some unfortunate consequences. I told you already, she doesn't deserve you. You're lying to her. If she found out the truth, it would kill her. How about you come with me? We have some further exploration to do." Alejandro whispers into Tyler's ear. Alejandro grabs Tyler by the waistband of his pants, and drags him into a nearby pantry. Lindsay gasps from outside the kitchen, just barely catching a glimpse of the two men.
Lindsay:
"I am starting to notice a recurring theme here. Like, Tyler and Alehandjob seem to do a lot more together. I'm going to get to the bottom of this if it's the last thing I do! Trust me! I thought I could ignore it, but it's really starting to bug me, like a lot!"
Alejandro:
"I'm such a fool. I can never let my temper get the best of me again. Luck for me, I didn't make a scene or call attention to myself. I just can't stand Tyler being an idiot! He's such a spineless man, so easily torn and drug around. After our...private time in the kitchen, I believe he'll be able to see that I'm only trying to help him. I have to say though, seeing him with Lindsay did make me angry. Maybe I'm feeling something I didn't anticipate. Regardless! This is solely about strategy! Nothing more."
Tyler:
"I'm really stuck between a rock and a hard place! Well Alejandro is both of those...so I guess that saying doesn't work. I think if I just stay on the down low with Lindsay but satisfy Alejandro, everything will be okay. He's told me he wants to help me through the merges and to the finale because he feels we're such good friends. I guess I should listen to him. I mean, part of me feels...good around him? Like, I can't explain it. But we're just friends. All friends know where your g-spot is. Wait, don't record - "
Sam sighs and watches Mike and Zoey as they passionately hold hands and whisper sweet-nothings to each other. After the massive fallout at breakfast the other day, it doesn't seem like any hope is there for Sam and Dakota to rekindle. Dakota is now officially icing out Sam entirely. She rejects his waves, ignores his smiles and looks away from him at all costs. How can you reconnect with someone who wants nothing to do with you? Dakota did want to eventually rekindle her love with Sam after she emotionally tortured him a bit more, but with the reveal that it was Lindsay he kissed - all bets are off. Now Dakota actively is plotting a way to exact her revenge on Sam and Lindsay. Who is going to payer the higher price is yet to be decided, but Dakota wastes no time. As Sam makes a pathetic attempt to talk to Dakota, she shoves him away, resulting in him tripping over his own feet and face-planting into the Maggots table. Dakota walks over to Sam and attempts to explain herself away, as if Sam falling back was a complete accident.
"The pain! I can't feel anything!" Sam moans. Chef, now on standby, comes over to Sam and whisks him away to the Infirmary.
"Dakota! Why would you do that?" Zoey asks Dakota. Dakota rolls her eyes and walks off. "Unbelievable! I know Dakota and Sam have issues, but now we're down a team member. More importantly, poor Sam could be seriously hurt!" Zoey slumps down in frustration and looks over to the Rats table to see Dakota holding up her middle finger. "Uh! Seriously?"
"Yah, my second cousin's brother Marie invented pain. Before then - " Staci tries to continue on before being interrupted by Cody.
"Staci, you can't invent pain." Cody mutters, annoyed with Staci. "That's like saying someone invented happiness, or snow. It's just not true!"
"Yah...I guess." Staci mumbles, embarrassed by Cody contradicting her. "Anyone want more oats? My dad's uncle's grandfather Quaker invented them. Yah." Staci lies, walking away to get more oats.
"Oh my little Codykins!" Sierra moans in her baby voice, creepily running her fingers through Cody's hair. "You're so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so smart!" Sierra screeches, wrapping her arms around Cody.
"No - offense Sierra. But you are really freakin' creepy." Cody says. Sierra releases Cody and stares at him, tears welling in her eyes. "Sierra..." Cody begins. Sierra bursts into tears and stands up, tripping over her seat and face-planting into her oats. She runs out of the mess hall, covering her oat-soiled-face, as snot and tears drip down it. Cody looks around to see his entire team shaking their heads at him. "What?!"
"Oh boy, you better apologize!" Ezekiel says. "Ladies are over sensitive, eh. You hurt their feelings and they'll hurt you!"
"Ladies are over sensitive?!" Zoey rhetorically asks Ezekiel. "Sexist much? How rude of you to say that!"
"Oh boy..." Mike mutters, distancing himself from the two. B looks at Mike and follows his cue, also stepping away.
Ezekiel:
"Eh, I ain't no sexist man or nothin' like that! I just know you gotta' be careful with 'em ladies, right? I ain't trying to hurt anybody's feelins' or nothin'! My Pop raised me right, and taught me to always respect 'em ladies 'cause they're so fragile and delicate. They need a man's help!"
Zoey:
"Ezekiel really put me over the edge with that comment. That just isn't something you say to anyone! How could someone be so rude and insensitive. I would never say anything like that about a guy. Come to think of it, Ezekiel's been saying a lot of stuff like this lately. I don't think the future will bid well for him."
Cody:
"Should I have not called Sierra creepy? I guess, but she is! You can't argue with the truth. After World Tour, it's like Sierra had a mental breakdown and got some violent mental disorder. I can't keep doing this show if she is here on my team."
Sierra:
"A good girlfriend makes sure her relationship with her boyfriend is a healthy one. But Cody is making this really difficult for me. I want to make sure we do the best for this team and for us, but he wants to fight me all the time. If he wants to reject my love...I'll just have to keep fighting harder!"
Two male members of the Bass team sit away from their team at an empty table in the corner. Duncan and Trent sit in an uncomfortable silence. After calling Duncan over to talk to him privately, Trent stays silent, unsure of how to translate his thoughts into words. Duncan exhales in annoyance, tapping his foot impatiently. Trent tries to speak, fumbling over his own words. Duncan stands to leave, but Trent grabs him by the shirt in an effort to keep him from leaving. Duncan looks down at Trent, noticing a true worry in his eyes. Duncan sighs, and flops back down.
"This is ridiculous. You pull me all the way over here to talk about 'us' - whatever the hell that means, and now you won't say anything to me." Duncan says. "Just because you're an artist and like to play guitar doesn't mean you have to be so melodramatic all the time."
"Duncan..." Trent starts. "I know you're upset about how Gwen reacted to us on the Aftermath show, but please don't be mad at me."
"I'm not mad!" Duncan says, his voice growing louder. "Yeah, it sucks Gwen found out the way she did and I didn't get to tell her. I still care for her a lot, and it blows to see her so upset. I feel like we're hurting her by doing this. It sucks, man. And you seem totally fine with it!"
"No we aren't! We aren't responsible for how she feels." Trent says, shocked by how own words. "I just wanted to say, the way you blew up at Scott during the racing challenge. That's not okay."
"That's what this is about, really?" Duncan laughs. "That's bogus! He was being a dick."
"Well, violence doesn't solve anything." Trent replies. "I'm not exactly sure what I feel right now, but I can't let you hurt other people like that. It's kind of scary."
"I hate to break it to you, but I don't care!" Duncan snaps. "No one disrespects me. And no one disrespects someone I care about."
"Wait, you care about me?" Trent asks, his heart fluttering. Duncan looks up at Trent, smiling.
"Hey ladies, you done?" Scott calls out from the Bass table.
"Yeah! Sha - boom, end those fruit cakes!" Lightning laughs.
"That's it." Duncan mutters angrily under his breath.
"Duncan, no!" Trent shouts.
In a rage, Duncan charges both Scott and Lightning and the three of them break out it to a full on brawl. Everyone seated, stands up and retreats to the edges of thee mess hall. In the end, Duncan is the only one to come out a victor, and Scott and Lightning are both sent to the Infirmary. Duncan turns to Trent and flashes a douchey grin. Trent smiles uncomfortably, unsure of how to react.
Duncan:
"Yeah, I guess you could say I did that for Trent. I guess there isn't really anything wrong sticking up for someone you sort of care about. Don't get me wrong, I also would have done it if it was Gwen...just in case anyone is wondering."
Trent:
"Wow. Look, I thought I wanted this, but the way Duncan acts is too much. I don't want to associate with someone who has that much anger. I know he was doing that...for me in a way. And I guess part of that is admirable, but that's just not cool, man."
After breakfast is over, all of the contestants make their way to the amphitheatre following an announcement made by Chris over the loudspeakers. On the right side of the stage sits a podium with a television screen next to it. On the left side of the stage sits a set of bleachers. The contestants all file in and sit down in the seats in front of the stage, awaiting instructions from Chris. From behind the podium, Chris pops up, donning his spiffy blue suit.
"Hello campers! You all look happy." Chris greets sarcastically. "It seems there's a violence issue today, and we have five campers in the Infirmary. Yikes! Sucks for you, great for me. Ratings central! Anyway, onto today's challenge! Each team will take a turn sitting in these lovely bleachers up here on stage. Each team will be asked five questions of varying difficulty about the past season of Total Drama. The first question will be worth one point, the second will be two, and so on. The two teams with the most points at the end of the first round will move onto the finals. Those two teams will face off, and the team scoring the most points in the finals will win, while the others must send someone home!" Chris explains.
"This don't really seem fair!" Anne Maria exclaims. "So two teams basically get a 'get out of elimination free' card?! It was the same deal with that racing challenge. I ain't a fan of how this game is being played!"
"We could be one of those teams though!" DJ says. "It isn't exactly fair, but it's a good thing if you're one of those teams! We might not have to deal with possibly sending someone home."
"Total Drama trivia! That sounds so fun!" Sadie cheers, shaking with excitement. "I just love, love, love trivia episodes like this!"
"Oh, like you know anything other than shopping in the maternity section of the clothing store." Katie says.
"What!" Sadie cries. "I told you that in secret!"
First up to answer questions are the Mutant Rats. Tyler, Lindsay, Alejandro, Bridgette, and Courtney sit in the first row of bleachers; with Dakota, Dawn, Harold, and Justin sitting behind them. Chris lets the contestants know that anyone on their respective team can answer the questions, but advises them to discuss before answering to avoid getting an incorrect answer. Chris stands at the podium and shuffles through a stack of index cards. The television screen turns on ready to display the question, as well as a timer. Chris informs the contestants that each question will have a certain amount of time to be answered. The first question will grant one minute, the second will grant forty five seconds, the third will grant thirty seconds, the fourth will grant fifteen and the the fifth will grant ten.
"Question one." Chris begins, pulling out an index card from the stack. "Who voluntarily left the competition in Total Drama Action due to their guilt of participating in an illegal alliance?" With that, the timer on the television screen begins counting down.
"Wasn't it a girl?" Tyler asks, just to get smacked by Courtney. "Ouch! You better watch yourself before you wreck yourself, bro!"
"It's 'check yourself before you wreck yourself'. Duh!" Dakota says, being in the know with street lingo.
"They were on my team I'm pretty sure." Harold mutters to himself, trying to recall back to the season. The timer continues down, reaching the thirty second mark.
"I'll give you losers a hint." Chris chuckles. "This person, by quitting, saved Lindsay and Justin from potential elimination!"
"Is was DJ, right? It was! He had an alliance with Chef!" Justin shouts. A bell goes off, indicating a correct answer. "Thanks for the help, Mrs. C.I.T." Justin mutters to Courtney.
"Oh, really?" Courtney snaps, crossing her arms. "Give us a better question!"
"Question two." Chris starts. "In Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, who was eliminated the most amount of times?" Chris asks.
"Dakota." Dawn announces. A bell goes off for their correct answer.
"Question three. In Total Drama World Tour, who wasn't going to make it to the final three, but did so because a contestant was forcibly removed from the show after blowing up the Total Drama Jumbo Jet?" Chris asks.
"It was me." Alejandro begins. Before he continues, Courtney covers his mouth to prevent him from speaking.
"Not now, Alejandro! We're trying to win here." Courtney scolds. "Let the team leader answer this question."
"Isn't Alejandro the team captain though?" Harold asks, just to get pushed off his seat by Courtney.
"It was Sierra. She went home because she blew up the Total Drama Jumbo Jet!" Courtney confidently answers. A buzzer goes off, indicating an incorrect answer.
"Idiota!" Alejandro shouts at Courtney. "It was me! Heather, Cody and Sierra all voted for me to go home first, but Sierra went home because she blew up the plane. Learn to actually listen to the question next time!" Alejandro berates. Courtney rolls her eyes and slouches down in her seat to avoid eye contact from any of her teammates.
"Question four. What is name of the sasquatch that lived in the cave?" Chris asks.
"Sasqwawanwakwa!" Tyler blurts out, following with a buzzer.
"You idiot!" Courtney screams. "That's two incorrect questions!" She leaps out of her seat and tackles Tyler, shouting obscenities as throws a set of fiesty smacks. Alejandro intervenes, tearing Courtney off of Tyler. Though her attack was brief she managed to do a real number on Tyler.
"Ay dios mio!" Alejandro cries, examining Tyler's injuries. Chef comes running up, preparing to take Tyler to the Infirmary. "May I escort him to the Infirmary?" Alejandro asks. Chef and Chris look at each other and shug, both agreeing. Alejandro helps Tyler up, and the two walk off in the direction of the Infirmary.
"Oh, that's just sick." Courtney mutters.
"Tell me about it." Bridgette agrees. Lindsay raises an eyebrow, starting to pick up on what's going on between Alejandro and Tyler.
"Question five, your final one! For five points, how many contestants did not qualify for Total Drama Action, and who were they?" Chris asks. The ten second timer begins, sending the Rats into a panic.
"Noah didn't! Or Cody!" Bridgette says.
"Neither did Katie, Sadie or Tyler!" Harold adds.
"Eva and Ezekiel didn't either. So seven!" Courtney continues. A buzzer goes off, indicating the answer is wrong. "Are you serious!? That is right!"
"Nope! You didn't qualify." Chris reveals. "Even though you managed to bully your way onto the show, you didn't qualify, making eight total who didn't compete. Rats, you have scored three of the fifteen potential points this round. Don't see that getting you to the finals."
"Oh, who even cares. We're safe from elimination." Courtney mutters. The entire Rats team glare at her, blaming her for their loss as the last three questions.
As the Rats leave the bleachers and the Maggots walk up for their turn, Alejandro takes his sweet time helping Tyler to the Infirmary. Tyler begins to limp, nearly collapsing onto the ground. Alejandro puts his arm around Tyler's waist, holding him up for support. Tyler looks up at Alejandro and gives him a short smile, caught off guard by his seemingly genuine display of affection. This simplicity leads Tyler to fully, and wholeheartedly trust Alejandro. This display of hospitality and affection let Tyler succumb to Alejandro's charms, and with Tyler in his pocket, Alejandro is free to do anything that he wants. And Alejandro knows that with what he's doing, showing this affection for Tyler, he'll win him over. The first part of Alejandro's plan is to get rid of Lindsay. Alejandro knows Tyler has an indecisive mind, but when all other options are taken away from you, there's only one that you can truly make. The two reach the Infirmary, and Alejandro comes to a stop.
"What's the matter?" Tyler asks, holding his side in pain. Alejandro pauses, looking into Tyler's eyes.
"I never realize how beautiful you are. Until now." Alejandro whispers, leaning in to kiss Tyler. The two grasp each others faces, kissing passionately. "And I mean it." Alejandro whispers, unsure if his own words were truthful, or just deceit.
Alejandro:
"Simple, simple, simple boy. Tyler is now my toy. Boy toy, if you will. He's quite the cutie, I admit it. But he's just a dumb toy. Now that I have him I can use him however I want. If that's for votes, or in the bedroom, it doesn't matter. Now that he is mine, I can convince him to break up and eliminate Lindsay. And he's all mine! Not that I want him...in that way. I'll never admit to anything. He's...a puppet..."
Tyler:
"Oh, Alejandro. Words can't even describe him. He's got such a nice...everything! I can't help that I like him. He probably thinks that he's gonna' get a vote out of me or use me for something. Nu-uh! No way! I'm just here for...why am I here? I guess for him and all that...muscle. But him taking me to the Infirmary? Bro, that was the sweetest thing ever. He wouldn't have done that if he didn't care about me."
Courtney:
"I hate this stupid game! Chris makes all these dumb rules and doesn't even follow them. Since when were questions about eliminations considered 'varying difficulties'? It's so dumb! I don't care if I didn't get any of them right. It's the principal and the logic behind Chris' evil ways. If only my lawyers were here! Also, Alejandro and Tyler? Please! Watching that is more sickening than when I graduated second in my class. My GPA was a fraction of a percent of a decimal away from being first!"
"Question one. Who has a deathly fear of being buried alive? Chris asks, a sinister smirk spreading across his face.
"Gwen!" Sierra screams before anyone can open their mouths.
"Question two. In Total Drama Action, who was eliminated in the very first challenge before teams were formed?" Chris asks, looking right at Sierra knowing she'll answer correctly.
"Bridgette and Geoff!" Sierra screeches.
"Question three! In Total Drama World Tour, who was eliminated because they destroyed their alien artifact and cost their team the challenge?" Chris asks.
"Tyler!" Sierra hollers, as if she were having some sort of violent convulsions.
"Speaking of, where is Alejandro? He should be back by now." Chris mutters, seeing Alejandro isn't sitting with his team or is anywhere in sight.
"He took Tyler to the Infirmary and they're probably banging!" Sierra shouts in response, thinking Chris was asking an actual question for their team to answer. Lindsay gasps from the seats in the audience, and leans over to Bridgette, asking her to explain what Sierra means. "They did it in the kitchen this morning, come on! Right in front of our pancakes!" Sierra screams. Lindsay gasps again, fainting and falling over. Before anyone can do anything, Chef stomps over to her and puts her on a stretcher and takes her over to the Infirmary.
"Okay, wow!" Chris laughs. "Some things, you don't need to know. Final question..." Chris begins.
"What?!" Courtney screams. "That last question wasn't even one for them! What kind of game is this?!'
"On Revenge of the Island, who was eliminated first?" Chris asks, ignoring Courtney entirely.
"Staci!" Sierra roars, jumping out of the bleachers and running around maniacally. With that, the Maggots officially score fifteen of the fifteen possible points. With a guaranteed slot to the finals, they part the stage and the Gophers make their way up. The four of them sit down at the bleachers. Chris looks up and sees the absence of team members and laughs.
"Three eliminated and two in the Infirmary?" Chris chuckles. "You guys sure know how to play the game! Wow! You guys suck!"
Eva:
"Chris thinks he's so funny! Oh, he's just such a comedian. Does he really think he can get away with saying all these things about our team? I am sick of it! You hear me? I am sick of it. People just can't handle a strong leader, that's the issue. You see Courtney trying to help our her team? No one listens to her because they don't want to be told what to do. That's the issue with people! They think they know everything and can't be told how to do things in benefit of others. I'm starting to wonder if it is even worth it and if I should just let my team do whatever they want and I just fight for myself. You know what? Let's test that theory."
"Question one, Gophers! Who sang in the most songs during Total Drama World Tour?" Chris asks.
"Heather!" Beth answers correctly.
"Question two. Who sang the second most songs during Total Drama World Tour?" Chris asks. The Gophers stare blankly at the television screen displaying the question.
"I thought this was Total Drama trivia, not World Tour." Noah mutters to himself.
"Gwen?" Beth says, unsure of her answer. A buzzer goes off for her wrong answer. Eva, sitting behind Beth, smacks her forehead in frustration.
"Question three. Who are the three contestants who have only competed in one season?" Chris asks.
"Me and Eva." Katie answers. "Oh...and Sadie." Katie adds under her breath. She glances over at Sadie in the audience; who is sticking her tongue out at her. A bell goes off for Katie's correct answer.
"Question four. What episode was the infamous million dollar prize introduced in?" Chris asks. The Gophers, once again, stare blankly. Time runs out and the question is automatically wrong, costing the team a potential four points. "Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island." Chris mutters in annoyance. "Question five, for five points; which season features seven irregular eliminations and which season features only seven regular eliminations?" Chris asks.
"Total Drama Island and World Tour." Noah answers casually. "Goes to show how messed up this elimination process really is." With their nine points secured, the Gophers leave the stage. Eva disappointingly shakes her head at her teammates. She was right about what she confessed earlier. If she stepped down and let her team do the challenge for themselves, they'd fail, and they did. In Eva's mind, this gave her even more of a reason to hate them, and to work against them. The seven member Bass team take their seats; Trent making sure he gets a spot right next to Duncan.
"Question one. Which contestant placed seventh on Total Drama Island?" Chris asks. The Bass form a small huddle and discuss possible answers.
"Izzy!" Sadie chimes correctly. "See guys, I am so fetch. I know what I am doing and I know how to work it!"
"Question two. Which season features the most team swaps in the series?" Chris asks.
"Pfft, that's easy! My season!" Anne Maria answers. She looks at the television screen to see the timer still counting. "Fine, Revenge of the Island, since you want specifics. We all know that season was mine though!" A bell goes off for Anne Maria's correct answer.
"Question three. Do I have my own brand of hair gel?" Chris asks. The Bass look at each other in puzzlement, since the question has nothing to do with the seasons.
"Of course you do." Blaineley mocks. "You're an egotistical jerk. You need your own brand. You do all know I was supposed to host this show and they only chose him because I turned it down?" Blaineley reveals, coming as a shock to some of the contestants. "Should have made that a question!" Blaineley laughs.
"Question four." Chris begins, cutting his eyes at Blaineley. "What was the original title of Total Drama World Tour?"
"Total Drama: The Musical." Blaineley answers. "I was supposed to host that, just saying."
"Final question! For a fifteen point total; who flirted with Tyler at the discretion of Alejandro to make Gwen jealous?" Chris asks.
"Is this the bash Courtney show!?" Courtney screams, standing up from her seat. "You're so lucky your contract prevents me from calling my lawyers. You would be so dead! Do you know how dead you'd be? Blaineley would have to host this show! No one even likes her! That's how pathetic this show would become, as if it isn't even pathetic enough!" Courtney rambles.
Through all of her rambling and screaming, the ten seconds runs out and the Bass automatically get the question wrong. With the Maggots securing fifteen points, the Bass winning ten, the Gophers earning nine and the Rats getting three; the Maggots and Bass are off to the finals. The two teams will have to answer fifteen questions, and whichever team answers more questions correctly, will be declared the victors and the losing team will have to send someone home. With both teams seeming to be on top with their Total Drama trivia, it will be one death defying match of knowledge to see who will come out on top!
