Last Time on Total Drama: The K'wala Islands:

Campers spent the second half of their challenge trying to catch Shawn, the Zombie Conspiracy Nut. It was pretty hilarious to watch, actually! Cole grew tired of Joshua's ego. Winona helped Brad apologize to Marisa. And in the end, Taylor FINALLY told Brittany how he felt. This, unfortunately, lost the challenge for their team, sending the happy couple home. Afterwards, Brad, in an attempt to apologize, gave his secret advantage to Marisa, leaving her, Logan, and Cole in positions of secret advantage-y power.

Eight are left! Who will surpass expectations and who, um… won't? Find out now on…

Total!

Drama!

The K'wala Islands!

-Theme Plays-

Theme Song: Tuxedo- Street Clerks (2015)

The view pans to show the entirety of the K'wala Islands. K'wala island is in the center, Kahn'gru island is to the southwest, and Wollobi Island is to the southeast.

-Get up and run, Tuxedo, you've still got time.-

The view zooms in to show Chris standing on K'wala dock. He waves. Then, behind him, Cole trips into him and the two fall off the dock. Behind them, Pearl is trying to give Giuseppe hand sanitizer.

-Forget your sorrow and leave all your past behind.-

The camera goes past them and into the brush of K'wala island. Winona and Taylor are arm wrestling on a stump. Brittany is behind Taylor, using waving pom poms and cheering him on.

-You have a chance to take that can make things right.-

The camera pans upwards and zooms to the top of the Lake Gellafiche Boxing Ring. Joshua is waving a hand in front of Olivia's face. She doesn't move. The camera moves sideways to show Marisa watching. Brad is looking at her, but when she turns around, he pretends to casually walk, and falls off the ring. (This part happens quickly)

-Don't let it pass you by…-

The camera moves down to the bottom of the ring. Harald is there, laughing maniacally. Koh rolls her eyes and pulls out a knife. Brad then falls onto Harald, and Koh doubles over in laughter.

-Don't let it pass you by.-

The view changes to show the campers at the elimination. Lain and Logan are in the seats closest to the center. Logan notices her and tries to run, but she catches him and kicks him in his family jewels.

End Theme

Location: Olivia's Cave

Competitors: Olivia, Cole

Good job in the challenge. If it weren't for you, we couldn't have done it.

Cole and Olivia were in the cave which Olivia had decorated with her artwork, now known as 'Olivia's Cave.' The challenge had just finished, so they didn't know who had gone home yet.

Thanks, Olivia replied.

Cole noticed her hands, which were shaking. What's wrong?

Olivia straightened, like she was preparing for a needle- something painful but necessary. I'm ready to tell you about my past.

Cole looked at her. Okay.

Olivia hesitated, before signing her story:

I was eight years old, and a pretty carefree person. I had a stable family and lots of friends. Life was amazing. Then, one day, I was being babysat while my parents were at a party. I don't remember what happened, but my parents never came home.

She shuddered. My babysitter and I went to the hospital. My parents had been hit by a car. Drunk driving accident. The doctors tried to save them, but they couldn't. Dead within hours.

"I'm so sorry," Cole said aloud.

Olivia pressed on. After that night, I was an orphan, and I was shuffled around foster families. Nobody cared for me- I was just there. Slowly, as I kept moving, I became more and more secluded from life. I started wearing my hair down, not talking, not moving. One day I realized I didn't even remember how to speak anymore.

But who did you come here to escape from? Cole asked.

Olivia tried to sign it, she really did, but her hands betrayed her. Some other time. Right now, let's be here.

Okay, Cole said. And the two stayed there, unmoving, unspeaking, for hours.

Location: Camp Wollobi

Competitors: Winona, Brad

The next day, Brad woke up to an odd sound. It was a continuous banging against a tree, like a woodpecker on steroids.

WHUMP. WHUMP. WHUMP.

He got up, bleary eyed, from his hammock, to go investigate. "It's too early for this."

WHUMP. WHUMP. WHUMP.

As Brad kept walking, it got louder and louder. When he turned the corner, he found the source.

"What did the tree ever do to you?" Brad remarked sarcastically as Winona hit it. Her knuckles were red from the impact.

"Getting my anger out," she said, without looking at him.

Confessional: Winona

"Taylor and Brittany were my two closest friends on the island, except for Brad. And now they're both gone. Can you blame me for boxing a tree?"

"How'd your gift go?" Winona asked.

"I don't know. Marisa's still asleep." Brad replied. He had given her his secret advantage in an attempt to regain her affection.

"Well, good luck. No offense, but get out of my face now,"

"Yes, ma'am," Brad slyly replied, slinking away.

Location: Mount Gahkah-Dew

Competitors: All

"Welcome back!" Chris said. Challenge time was nigh, and he was excited, to say the least. "We have multiple things to attend to, so chop-chop!"

The teams took their places. "First off! As you may have noticed, last night was a double elimination! So, with both Brittany and Taylor gone, the teams have four players apiece!"

"And this is important because…?" Logan interjected wearily.

"Shut up!" Chris barked at him. "I just wanted to make the point known, okay? But… I would like you to select one male and one female from each team to volunteer for a special task."

Confessional: Logan

"If I know Chris, I know that this is not something I want to sign up for."

Brad and Olivia, the only members of their sex on the team, stepped up immediately.

"Mind if I…?" Cole looked at his team. When they agreed he also came forward. Koh followed him, mostly just to get away from Winona.

Chris surveyed the four- Cole, Olivia, Brad and Koh. "Well, say hello to your new team!" He tossed them a banner which read, Kempt Kangaroos.

"So I suppose that makes us the new Witless Wallabies," Logan sighed. He, Joshua and Winona looked disappointed. On the contrary, Marisa was excited.

Confessional: Marisa

"So, on the plus, I can meet some more people! On the minus, Logan is a jerk and nobody seems to notice except for me, Joshua's stuck up, and Brad is now on the other team. I like Brad, and giving me the advantage was so sweet, but he was super rude to me. I'm almost glad we have some space now."

"Now that that's all said and done, we have a challenge! Listen up:"

Challenge Info:

In their new teams, competitors must write, direct, and act in a video encouraging people to join next season. Aside from whoever is filming, every team member must appear in the video and have a line. The catch, however, is that the video equipment lies atop mount Gahkah-Dew. Two people will need to go up the hill to retrieve it. Once the first team sets up their equipment, a thirty minute timer starts- once it ends, all filming must be completed. Chris and two special guest judges will grade the videos; the highest score wins.

"Oh, boy," Brad said upon hearing this.

"Oh, boy indeed!" Chris gleefully agreed. "Once you have chosen your runners, you may start!"

On the Kempt Kangaroos' side, things went, for the most part, smoothly. Koh and Cole were elected to carry their supplies down the hill. They took off with minimal issues- unless, of course, you count, Cole tripping, but by this point, you really shouldn't.

On the Witless Wallabies side, there was an obvious power struggle.

"No, it should be Logan and me!" Joshua argued.

"No, it should be Marisa and me!" Winona argued back.

Logan and Marisa watched this go on, back and forth, for several minutes. Finally, Logan suggested, "Why don't you two go together?"

It dawned on them that maybe he was onto something. They raced forward, possibly faster than the other team; it was hard to tell, since Koh and Cole were so far ahead.

As the pairs went up the hill, the focus turned towards the remaining competitors on the ground.

Brad started to approach Marisa, a serious look on his face. "Hey, M-"

"No, not yet," Marisa interrupted. "I'm not ready."

Brad, completely shot down, slunk away.

Confessional: Brad

"Ugh. What will it take?"

Confessional: Marisa

"I think I like Brad, like, like like him. And the advantage he gave me was very kind. I just can't process everything right now, especially since we're in a competition."

They waited for a while, until Marisa perked up. "I see people!"

Indeed, two people, specks in the distance, were coming down the hill. They came closer, and it was clear that they were…

…Koh and Cole! They were carrying the equipment down at a breakneck pace. Joshua and Winona were far behind.

Soon, they reached the rest of their team, who wasted no time. The Kempt Kangaroos sped off, ready to set up.

Location: K'wala Island- South

Competitors: Kempt Kangaroos

Time Remaining: 30:00

As the team started to put together their equipment, people started throwing out ideas.

"Graveyard theme," Koh suggested.

"What about superheroes?" Cole said.

"Let's not go over the top; let's just have us smile and say a few lines," Brad threw out.

"Vandalism?"

"Outer space!"

"Infomercial,"

Soon, the mild exchanging of ideas evolved into a full-scale argument. Koh was yelling at Brad, who was yelling at Cole, who was yelling at Koh. It was chaos. Nobody noticed Olivia, silently writing a script.

Location: Mount Gahkah-Dew- Base

Competitors: Witless Wallabies

Time Remaining: 26:19

Joshua and Winona had just come down the hill. Their arguing could be heard from miles away.

"Okay, focus," Logan told his squabbling teammates. "Win now, kill each other later."

"Fine," the two said at the same time, glaring at each other.

Confessional: Winona

"I have officially found somebody I hate more than Koh,"

"So, here's the plan:"

Location: K'wala Island- South

Competitors: Kempt Kangaroos

Time Remaining: 12:56

They were still arguing.

"PUNKS!"

"SPACE!"

"INFOMERCIAL!"

As the three were fighting, Olivia put her pen down. She then stood up, and handed three copies of a handwritten script to her teammates.

The three stopped.

Looked at the scripts.

And suddenly, they were in the competition again.

Location: Mount Gahkah-Dew- Base

Competitors: All

Time Remaining: 0:12

"Ten seconds, left, contestants!" Chris announced.

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

"We're all here, Chris," Logan noted.

"Argh!" Chris growled. "You insist on ruining my moments, don't you?"

Confessional: Logan

"I'll admit I do derive some pleasure from it."

"Anyways… Please welcome our guest judges! All the way from Canada, Chef!

A large, dark-skinned man was sitting next to Chris. He was indeed wearing a Chef's hat.

"And, I don't care where he's from, as long as I don't have to talk to him, Don!"

Don, the host of The Ridonculous Race, sat on Chris' other side. He smiled and waved. "I hope you've come up with some amazing videos!"

"Fame stealer," Chris muttered under his breath. "Let's see what you've come up with! Kempt Kangaroos, you're first."

Kempt Kangaroos

"Hey, everyone!" Brad said, waving. "It's us, the Kempt Kangaroos, and we're telling you to audition next-"

Koh walked into view, carrying a can of spray paint. She sprayed Brad in the face. "What this moron's trying to say is that you should send us your-"

She was then interrupted by Cole, wearing a bathing suit and a clown nose. "What she means is that you should-"

"Hey! I was here first!" Brad complained.

"Yeah, but I was handling it!" Koh argued back.

The three began to yell at each other. Olivia then walked in holding a sign. 'Send in your audition videos today!'

The judges looked at the video. "Point of clarification," Don asked. "Was the argument real or staged?"

"Staged," Koh replied, smiling.

"Well then...It was genius!" Don exclaimed.

"Beautiful," Chef agreed.

"It was OK…" Chris said. "Let's score them!"

Don held up a 9.

Chef held up an 8.

Chris held up a…

..."Four?" Cole said. "Why?"

"Unlike Don," Chris explained, "I have standards. Your final score is 21. Next video!"

Witless Wallabies

"In a world where darkness reigns…" Logan's voice narrated.

Joshua and Marisa were seen attacking Winona in slow motion. Winona stumbled and fell.

"Heroes are needed to stand up and fight…" Winona said.

Logan charged on screen and repelled Joshua and Marisa.

"But…" Joshua said. "We need more."

Logan ran away as Marisa and Joshua came back, chasing them.

"Send in your audition videos today. Be a hero." Marisa finished as the screen went dark.

"That was…"

..."Genius!" Don yelled. He was wiping a tear from his eye.

"I'm astounded. So original! It gave me goosebumps!" Chef exclaimed.

"It was decent," Chris wearily said. "Scores? You need a 22 to win."

Don held up an 8.

Chef held up a 10.

Chris held up a…

..."Three?!" Winona yelled. "You've got to be- arrrgh!"

"That means we tie," Logan noted.

"What's the tiebreaker?" Brad asked.

"There isn't one!" Chris said. "We, the judges, need to deliberate on the winner."

They started talking.

Confessional: Cole

"I hope it's us. We worked hard."

Confessional: Winona

"A three?! Chris has just replaced Joshua as number one on my 'ARGH!' list!"

"We have decided…" Don said.

"That the best video…" Chef continued.

"Belongs to…" Chris said.

…"The Kempt Kangaroos! The fake argument was pretty genius."

The Kangaroos celebrated while the Witless Wallabies resigned themselves to an elimination

Location: Camp Wollobi

Competitors: Logan, Joshua

"So, elimination tonight!" Logan said to Joshua. They had just moved their gear into the new camp.

"Yah. I think we should vote for Winona," Joshua said.

"Great idea, Joshua! You're so smart!" Logan complimented.

"I know," Joshua agreed.

Confessional: Logan

"I have that fool Joshua wrapped around my little finger!"

"But if the girls team up on one of us, we need a plan." Logan said.

"What is that plan?" Joshua asked.

Logan turned around to look at Marisa, who was running away from them. He had made sure that she heard the conversation and now she was presumably telling Winona.

"That was it right there."

Location: K'wala Campfire

Competitors: Witless Wallabies

"Welcome to your first elimination with your new team!" Chris greeted. "You're here because-"

"Because you gave our video a three!" Winona interrupted.

"True! Blame me all you want! I am the host, after all," Chris smiled. "But for now, cast your votes!"

Marisa went first. "I'm so mad at you, Logan! You're such a-"

Logan hurriedly went next. "Bye bye, my little pawn."

Joshua was next. "Another one of my genius ideas."

Winona was last. "Too bad we can't vote for Chris."

Once the votes were cast, Chris took them. "I'll now read the votes. But first, would anyone like to use a secret advantage?"

Joshua smirked.

Winona growled in Joshua's direction.

Logan stared straight ahead.

Marisa reached into her bag…

...and pulled an empty hand out.

Chris seemed satisfied. "Okay, then! The first vote is for...Logan!"

Confessional: Logan

"All according to plan, I'm afraid."

"The next vote is for...Joshua!"

Joshua looked a little nervous.

"The third vote is for...Winona!"

Winona paled. For once, she wasn't very confident.

"Our eighth place competitor on Total Drama: The K'wala Islands is…"

"Winona."

She wildly got to her feet. "What?! You- they- ARGH!"

Winona stomped off angrily. "Beware of Joshua!"

With that, Chris turned to the camera. "With Winona taking the Skydive of Terrible Horrible Agony, we have our top seven! Will Marisa and Brad get back together? Will Cole and Olivia ever get together? Who will get together with seventh place? Find out next time on…"

"Total!"

"Drama!"

"The K'wala Islands!"

Final Confessional: Winona

"Joshua tricked me! He's the real villain, I'm sure of it! You'll rue the day you messed with Winona!"

There she goes! Winona was starting to become redundant, so… bye bye! Remember to look at the poll on my profile concerning your favorite eliminated contestants! Other than that… TBTT out!
