Amanda watched as Courtney stepped off the boat. "I can't believe this happened."

"I somehow doubt your team voted you off, but I can't change the rules and regulations." Amanda explained. "You were they're best chance at winning, given you would've stayed at least a few more weeks."

"Thanks." Courtney said. She looked down at the little wooden skull she was carrying. "I'll be cheering for you, Duncan." They headed inside.

"That challenge must've been pretty hard." Ezekiel said.

"It was. You have no idea how tired I got holding up that canoe."

"Yeah, I doubt that Sadie or I would've lasted long in that one." Katie agreed.

"I'm just glad it's over with. Sure, I may have been kicked off, but it sure beats camp. That place is already like a prison." Courtney said.

"You're telling me." Beth said. "At least you didn't get pulled into Heather's alliance."

"That girl is just plain mean. I still can't believe she read Gwen's diary during the talent show."

"Sabotaging your own team just to win is downright low." Eva agreed.

"You can say that again." Cody said.

"Anyway, I don't understand why I'm here." Courtney said. "I know my team would never vote me off."

"Unless they were trying to get payback." Noah said before being elbowed by Katie. "What?"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Courtney asked.

"One sec." Katie said. She and the others gathered in a huddle in one side. "We can't tell her the real reason she was kicked off yet. We all know why we were, but we didn't tell each other right away."

"Right, my bad." Noah said.

"Let's just keep it between us. She's not ready to know yet." Tyler said. They all glanced back over at Courtney. She was looking at her wooden skull.

"Where did you get that?" Beth asked. "It's kind of creepy."

"I know, but it's still kind of cool at the same time." Courtney said. "I was thinking of turning it into a pendant."

"Did Duncan give it to you?" Sadie asked.

"Right as the boat left."

"Who knew he was so into the A-type?" Ezekiel asked.

"I think it's sweet." Katie said. "Besides, I could tell he was totally into you." Courtney blushed.

"Guys, cut it out. You're embarrassing her." Cody pointed out.

"It's not as embarrassing as your crush on Gwen." Beth said.

"That's different. Sure, she's cool, but she's not into me." Cody reminded them. "She said she'd rather stay friends. For now, at least."

"He might not be my type, exactly, but for some reason, I feel attracted to him." Courtney admitted.

"You know that saying, opposites attract." Katie pointed out. "That's totally the case here."

"Maybe…" Courtney said. "I'm going to head to my room. It's been a long time since I've had some privacy."

Jennifer was looking at the sky outside. "Jen, what are you doing out here?" Amanda asked. "It's really cold."

"Just watching the stars."

"We should get inside. It's getting kind of late." Amanda pointed out.

"Be there in a minute." Jen said. She looked up at the sky one last time before heading to in.
