Warning, this episode of Total Drama contains scenes of extreme stunts performed by FICTIONAL teens. Please, do not try any of what you see here at home. Seriously, you could get really messed up.

The scene opens with all 16 of this season's contestants, Evan, Geoff, Bridgette, Sierra and Alejandro.

"Welcome back to The Aftermath!" Alejandro exclaims.

"Alejandro and Geoff will be explaining a challenge that Bridgette and I will be hosting." Sierra says. "But first off, we're going to bring back some old friends!"

From offstage, Owen, Gwen, Beth, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Zoey, Mike, Shawn, Sky, MacArthur, Sanders and Brody walk in.

"Now," Geoff starts, "you may be wondering what the challenge is, since we all know that this is going to be for the returning spots, and why Evan, the finalists and the contestants that are still in are competing."

"Well," Alejandro says, "If two eliminated contestants of this season win, then they'll get to join Evan in rejoining the game! But, if ANYONE else competing wins, than they get to pick who returns."

"That's right!" Bridgette says, interrupting. "Now, you may be wondering why there hasn't been a food based challenge yet. That's because this is it, right here. First of all, we're going to split you into teams. Team 1 will be Owen, Duncan, Alejandro, Cameron, Mike, Shawn, Sanders, Geoff, Andrew, Aaren, Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda, Lily, Serena, and, as an extra bonus, Evan. Team 2 will consist of Gwen, Beth, Heather, Lightning, Zoey, Sky, MacArthur, Brody, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Blaineley, Olive, Luna, King, and Griff. Team 2, you get to pick one person, as a group, to eliminated from Team 1."

Confessional – Andrew

"Well, for the people who know me that are on the other team, only Carly and Luna really like me. So I may be doomed."

Confessional – Griff

"I do NOT want Andrew to get another ally back in the game. Best case scenario, myself and a neutral person come back, like Gareth."

Confessional – Lightning

"Lightning doesn't know sha-who these people are."

Confessional – Alejandro

"I can only hope they vote me off… this challenge will NOT be pretty. Plus, I have a weak stomach."

End Confessionals

"Team 2 has come to a consensus!" Sierra announces. "Sorry Owen!"

She pulls on a pulley rope, and Owen falls.

"Now, for the actual challenge. Sierra and I will serve both teams a DISGUSTING dish. The first person to receive it can pass it. So can the next person. You can keep on passing it down until you're out of people. But, once everyone on your team's passed it, the first and last person in line will be eliminated. Once ten people are eliminated, or after every person EXCEPT ten has eaten a dish, we'll continue to the next part!"

10. Minutes. Later.

The two teams of 16 are sitting down on separate tables.

Sierra and Bridgette hand off platters to Duncan and Gwen. Underneath is a single chili pepper seed. Gwen immediately passes it, but Duncan foolishly eats it, making his face go completely red and steam come out of his ears. Meanwhile, on Team 1, Beth and Heather have passed it, giving it to Lightning. Like what happened with Duncan, he immediately regrets it.

"Congrats!" Sierra announces.

Bridgette presses a button, and Duncan's and Lightning's chairs fly to the other side of the room.

"You've made it to the next round." Bridgette confirms. "Next dish!"

The next dish is pig ears.

Alejandro quickly passes it to Cameron, who passes it to Mike, who passes it to Shawn who eats it without any hesitations.

Gwen shrugs and eats them.

Shawn and Gwen both join Lightning and Duncan.

"Okay, these dishes apparently aren't getting to you…" Sierra says. "Time to turn it up a notch!"

The next dish is a bowl full of live worms.

Alejandro passes it once again to Cameron, who after some hesitation, eats it.

Meanwhile, Beth, Heather, Zoey, Sky, and even MacArthur and Brody have passed it. Carly, Indigo and Graham also pass it. Blaineley, on the other hand, eats it.

The new lines are: Alejandro, Mike, Sanders, Geoff, Andrew, Aaren, Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda, Lily, Serena and Evan; as well as Beth, Heather, Zoey, Sky, MacArthur, Brody, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive, Luna, King, and Griff.

"Bird-nest soup!" Bridgette announces.

Alejandro and Mike pass, but Sanders eats it.

Beth also passes it, but Heather eats it.

"Fried snake!" Sierra says.

Alejandro, Mike, Geoff, Andrew, Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda, Lily, Serena and Evan all pass it, eliminating Alejandro and Evan.

Sky eats it on the other hand.

Safe: Gwen, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Shawn, Sky, Sanders, Blaineley

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan

Team 1: Mike, Geoff, Andrew, Aaren, Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda, Lily and Serena

Team 2: Beth, Zoey, MacArthur, Brody, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive, Luna, King, and Griff

"Next is one that I'm sure most of you haven't heard of… TUNA EYES. This delicacy comes from Japan." Bridgette says.

Mike and Beth both suffer through it.

Bridgette winces a bit at the next one. "I'm sorry fellow vegetarians… dolphin meat."

Andrew immediately makes gagging sounds.

Geoff suffers through it, while Zoey passes it to MacArthur who does the same.

Bridgette's eyes open really wide. "Yum yum happy go time candy fish tails."

Andrew eats it (since contrary to popular belief, it has no meat in it).

Zoey passes it.

Brody passes it.

Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive, Luna, King and even Griff pass it.

Safe: Gwen, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Shawn, Sky, Sanders, Blaineley, Mike, Beth, Geoff, MacArthur, Andrew

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff

Team 1: Aaren, Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda, Lily and Serena

Team 2: Brody, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive, Luna and King

Bridgette almost throws up at the next one, making Sierra have to read it.

"Dog meat."

King actually eats it, while the other team doesn't.

Safe: Gwen, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Shawn, Sky, Sanders, Blaineley, Mike, Beth, Geoff, MacArthur, Andrew, King

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff, Serena, Aaren

Team 1: Lauren, Ronnie, Gareth, Rhonda and Lily

Team 2: Brody, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive and Luna

"A very UNpopular meal, created by our very own Courtney, Neapolitan ice-cream with bird poop sauce!" Bridgette says.

The remaining contestants all groan.

Team 2 isn't able to stomach it, but Ronnie manages to get it down.

Safe: Gwen, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Shawn, Sky, Sanders, Blaineley, Mike, Beth, Geoff, MacArthur, Andrew, King, Ronnie

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff, Serena, Aaren, Brody, Luna

Team 1: Lauren, Gareth, Rhonda and Lily

Team 2: Carly, Indigo, Graham and Olive

"Okay, since it only takes one more person being eliminated to move onto the next round, we're going to make this round more fun. EVERYONE has to eat the food to move on. If multiple people don't, there'll be a tie breaker. So, the first speed-round food is… chocolate covered ants."

And like that, Rhonda is OUT.

Safe: Gwen, Duncan, Heather, Cameron, Lightning, Shawn, Sky, Sanders, Blaineley, Mike, Beth, Geoff, MacArthur, Andrew, King, Ronnie, Lauren, Gareth, Lily, Carly, Indigo, Graham, Olive

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff, Serena, Aaren, Brody, Luna, Rhonda

"Okay," Bridgette announces. "The next round will be an eating competition. Whoever can eat this MOLDY sausage, pineapple and artichoke slice of pizza first, or can eat more before two minutes are up, moves on, while the other will be eliminated from the competition.

Duncan beats Gwen, Heather somehow beats Cameron, Shawn easily beats Lightning, Sky and Sanders tie, eliminating them both, Blaineley beats Mike, Geoff beats Beth, MacArthur beats Andrew (who forfeits), Joshua – "King!" – beats Ronnie, Lauren beats Gareth, Carly beats Lily, Indigo beats Graham, and Olive goes up against both Sky and Sanders, losing to them both, meaning all three are officially eliminated.

Safe: Duncan, Heather, Shawn, Blaineley, Geoff, MacArthur, King, Lauren, Carly, Indigo

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff, Serena, Aaren, Brody, Luna, Rhonda, Gwen, Cameron, Lightning, Sky, Sanders, Olive, Mike, Beth, Andrew, Ronnie, Gareth, Lily, Graham

"Now, for a cooking competition! Being your judges are… three random eliminated contestants! Go!"

Duncan manages to make an okay fried-egg tortilla wrap.

Heather messes up her brioche big time.

Shawn makes peach cobbler.

Blaineley makes burnt juice (don't ask me how that's possible).

Geoff makes a burrito.

MacArthur makes a homemade donut.

King makes a very-berry pie.

Lauren makes some sort of chocolate cake.

Carly makes a masterful chocolate mousse.

Finally, Indigo makes a UFO (unidentified filthy object).

First up, Owen, Alejandro and Lily give Duncan's a fondue.

Griff, Zoey and Evan give Heather a huge fondon't.

Ronnie, Andrew and Mike give the biggest fondue ever.

Aaren, Olive and Lightning give a huge fondon't.

Brody, Beth and Luna give Geoff a fondue.

Sanders, Sky and Gareth give a fondon't, as a donut is unoriginal.

Gwen, Cameron and Serena give King a surprising fondue.

Lauren and Carly both also get fondues, while Indigo makes a somewhat obvious fondon't.

Safe: Duncan, Shawn, Geoff, King, Lauren, Carly

Eliminated: Owen, Alejandro, Evan, Zoey, Griff, Serena, Aaren, Brody, Luna, Rhonda, Gwen, Cameron, Lightning, Sky, Sanders, Olive, Mike, Beth, Andrew, Ronnie, Gareth, Lily, Graham, Heather, Blaineley, MacArthur, Indigo

"Okay, the final 6 must… do an eating competition. The two people who eat the most food at the end, win." Bridgette announces.

The first one to run out of room is Carly, with Shawn and Duncan both following soon after.

Lauren drops out not too long after, giving Geoff and King the win.

"Geoff," Bridgette asks, "who would you like to bring back into the game besides Evan and Josh-er, King!"

Geoff thinks for a moment. "I gotta say Rhonda. She's nice, and it'll definitely change up some strategy!"

Sierra nods. "There you have it, folks, Rhonda, Evan and Joshua…" "KING!" "… are back in the game!"

Will Rhonda help Carly, Ronnie and Andrew plow through the merge?
