Episode 8 - Clean Acts

...

After the elimination, Team Sambasa and Tillanoy went to sleep in the mansion. Deb and Dennis went to bed in Alex's empty room, Caige and Taya went to a room together, Harvey, Leo, and Vera slept in their respective rooms. Vincent, on the other hand, couldn't sleep and was pacing the living room, feeling the warmth of the fireplace.

Vincent: (CONF.) I can't believe it...Valentina's gone! She's...gone...and...I didn't say bye properly...oh...god...

Vincent continued to walk around and seem worried until he heard someone enter the living room. He looked and noticed that it was Dennis, "Dennis...what are you doing up? It's late..."

Dennis smiled and took a seat on the couch and motioned Vincent to sit with him. On a piece f paper, she asked, "Valentina?" Vincent nodded and sighed, looking down. "Don't be upset! Sure Valentina felt vulnerable since she liked you, but maybe you could win for her! Do it for her!"

"Wow Dennis..." Vincent happily said, "I guess you're the next Deb, huh?" Dennis smiled. Vincent then got up, "Well thanks..better sleep...don't wanna lose the challenge for my team!" He walks out with Dennis and they both go off to sleep.

About an hour after Vincent and Dennis went to sleep, two other people were awake and about the mansion. It was Caige and Leo. They were heading over to Vera's and Harvey's room.

Caige looked confused. He whispered to Leo, "Why are we up? Me and Taya were having some fun!"

"Ssshhh!" Leo answered, "We're going to Vera's room...I think she's hiding something from us..."

"What?" Caige asked.

"An immunity idol! She stole it from me and I want it back!" Leo turned the corner and was now standing in front of Vera's room.

Caige: (CONF.) Immunity idol? Did Chris even talk about that?

Slowly, Leo opened up Vera's door, and saw her fast asleep on her bed. He tip-toed in, and Caige followed, keeping close. Leo then started looking around her room, moving bags and stuff around. He told Caige to help find the immunity idol, and he agreed to it, reluctantly.

"Where is it?!" Leo complained. He threw a shoe across the room and it made a loud 'thud' sound. The boys stopped. They all looked to Vera's bed, noticing that Vera was already awake, looking at them. They then started running out of the room, but were shoved to the ground by Vera. "OW! REALLY VERA?!" Leo screamed. He was then kicked and pushed outside with Caige, who seemed shocked by what Vera just did.

Vera, angrily, looked at the boys, "What you want will never be found!" And dramatically, she shut her door, leaving Leo and Caige surprised and scared.

...

The morning had finally arrived, and the teams were eating breakfast in the kitchen. Deb was up and about, moving past other servers and giving food to everyone, "Morning! We got bacon, eggs, sandwiches, leftovers from the other day, and dessert! Get eating!"

Taya, who just came in with Caige, squealed, "YES! GOOD FOOD FOR ONCE!" She grabbed Caige's hand and brought him to a seat, "We finna get crunk wit this!" She grabbed some food and started chowing down on it, "Come on Caige! Eat!"

"No no..." Caige said, "Not feeling good..." he looked to Vera, who was getting food with Harvey.

Caige: (CONF.) Vera punched me i the stomach last night! Hard! And it still aches! Why did Leo even make me do that?!

Leo walked up to Caige and Taya and smiled, "Hey! Can I sit with you guys?" Caige nodded, and Leo sat and ate, "Did you see outside? It's a mess out there! Luckily, the cabin for the other team didn't get destroyed!"

"Yaas!" Taya cheered, "My stuff was still there!" She got up, "I'm gettin' more food!"

Leo waited until Taya was gone so that he could grab Caige by the ear and pull him in, "Really? Interacting with the other team?! Stay loyal!"

"I'm sorry!" Caige complained, "It's just that...we're dating now so we have to be together...and really, I'm more loyal to the other team than this one..."

Leo looked betrayed, "Well, I guess I'll just throw the challenge and convince Vera and Harvey to vote you out!"

Caige gasped, "No! Please! Don't! And besides, why would Vera and Harvey want to vote with you? They won't believe a word you say!"

Leo smiled, "So? I have my ways..." he leans to Caige, "Now...I want you to know that the immunity idol that Vera stole from me must come back to me, so we need to find it again...you up to check on it now?"

"I..I don't know," Caige answered, "Is Vera looking at us?"

"Who cares?! Do it!" Leo pushed Caige off his chair and he ran up the stairs.

Leo: (CONF.) Looks like I'm pushing him...nice.

The camera went to Deb, who was sitting alone. She was on her phone looking up recipes and was eating eggs. Dennis and Vincent went up to her and sat down.

"Deb! What are you doing?! Relax!" Dennis wrote out.

Deb smiled, "Thanks...but no thanks..." she went back to work.

Vincent added, "Do you need Alex?"

Deb blushed, but answered, "No...I don't need anyone's help...I'll be fine...just watch!" She got up and left. Dennis looked to Vincent, but he shrugged.

Harvey sat himself down and looked to Vera, "So much food!" He kept putting food in his mouth, and Vera laughed.

"Slow down!" She said, "You'll get sick!" She looked around, and leaned over to Harvey, "Anyways...Leo and Caige went into my room last night..."

Harvey gasped, "Really? What'd they do?"

"Obviously, they're looking for the idol!" Vera yelled, "But you still have it, right?" Harvey nodded. "Good...keep it! If we need it, we'll use it!"

Chris came in and clapped his hands, "Hey everyone! We're done with breakfast and this team mingling! We're going outside...'cause it's challenge time!" Everyone complained, but they all went outside, and complained even more after noticing what was outside.

The flood had receded, but the weather was extremely hot, there was mud and nasty stuff all over the floor, and some parts of the buildings were broken and destroyed.

"So...how are we going to fix this..." Chris started," At first, Chef proposed that we should get some interns to clean up, but then I said, 'what was the fun in that?' Seeing teens like you do actual work is better than any intern helping us out! For the challenge, we will assign each team a certain area to clean, and after, we will judge which is the spunkiest area! The best space wins the challenge! So...Team Sambasa will cover the beach and sea, and Team Tillanoy will clean up the camp grounds and surrounding areas!"

"Wait!" Deb yelled, "This is so much for 4 person teams, do you think we can handle it?!"

Chris shrugged, and held his horn up, "Don't know...but we'll see!" He blew the horn, "Now get moving! Clean!" The teams scurried off to their spaces, and began.

...

(Team Tillanoy)

The team was standing in the middle of the campground, growing at what they had to clean up.

"Okay...so how are going to clean this up?" Leo looked to Vera, "Any ideas?"

Vera glared at Leo, "I don't know...we could split up I guess...me and Harvey will clean up the mess on the floor while you and your new friend Caige clean up the buildings...Caige?" She looked to Caige, who was on his phone. She touched his shoulder, "Hey! Listen up!"

Caige blushed, "Oh sorry! Was texting someone..." he put the phone away, "I'll clean with Leo...you two can go off and do what you want." hey agreed and went off to clean up the mess.

The camera was on Leo and Caige. They were holding paint cans and brushes. The flood had eroded the paint off of the buildings, and started painting. "This sucks," Leo starts, "So hot! And so boring!"

Caige sighs, "Yeah...boring..." behind Leo's back, he checks up on his phone. Leo notices, and rips the phone out of Caige's hand, "Really?! Stop! We can't look like we're not doing anything to Harvey and Vera!" They continued painting.

Vera was using a broom and sweeping up the floor. She looked at Harvey, who was picking up trash and muck left behind, "Hey Harvey! Come here!"

Harvey walked up to Vera, "What's up?"

"Do you think we should...taunt Leo?"

Harvey looked confused, "What do you mean?"

Vera answers, "Like piss him off! Throw stuff at him! It'll be funny! And if he loses the challenge for us, Caige will enough reason to kick him out with us!"

"Oh...sounds promising...but I don't think so," Harvey said.

Vera was shocked, "Really? Why?"

"Well, it's risky! You're really going hard on him...take it slow...you might trip and never get back up again.." he turns to get back to work, "Be careful Vera."

...

(Team Sambasa)

Team Sambasa seemed to be on a roll. They looked organized and were working well and fast, trying their best to make the beach and ocean look the best.

Vincent told the team to create a huge pile of mess so that he could dispose later, and Dennis was in charge of cleaning up the water surrounding the beach.

Deb was running around, sweating hard, and throwing dirt and mess all over the pile Vincent told to make. She accidentally trips over a sand dune and falls flat on her face.

"HA!" Taya yelled, laughing at Deb. She then walked off on her phone.

Deb picked up herself up and wiped her face with water. She then gasped at what she saw near her. She crawled through the wet sand and picked up red cat earphones - the ones that Alex used.

Deb: (CONF.) *holds earphones* It's his earphones...what happened to him? Is he...lost at sea?

Anger rose fast in Deb. She finally snapped, and ran all the way to the campgrounds where Chris was.

"As she was leaving, Taya, who was texting Caige, noticed Deb going off, "Where ya goin' girl?"

"To Chris!" she yelled. Taya, who looked confused, shrugged and went back to texting Caige.

Deb saw Chris and Chef relaxing on a tanning bench. She grabbed the chair that they were sitting on and tipped them over, making Chris and Chef fall over.

"Deb! What is wrong with you?!" Chris complained, rubbing his head.

Deb held up Alex's earphones, "What is this?!"

"Um...earphones?" Chris asked, confused over what Deb was asking.

"Yeah! Alex's earphones! Something he always kept! And he was eliminated before that flood even happened! So what if he's dead?! Or eaten by sharks?! Don't you care about us?!"

Chris, looking scared, sighed, "Okay...maybe I don't know where any of the eliminated contestants are, but..."

"YOU DON'T KNOW?!" Deb snapped, "Seriously?! You are scaring and hurting us contestants! We deserve better! Why do you think I'm trying to change things up in here?!"

Chris looked mad and got up, "Enough Deb! Who cares what you think?! You're just another contestant on the show! Chef! Bring her back to her team!"

Chef grabbed eb's hand, but she ripped him off of her, "Let me go! I can take care of myself just fine!" She walks off, putting the earphones in her pocket.

Deb: (CONF.) *crying* I...am such a mess! *continues sobbing*

...

Time was passing and Chris announced that there was about 2 minutes left. Worried, both teams went even faster than before. Team Tillanoy were throwing their garbage bins in the dumpsters behind the mansion. Leo was finishing up painting Team Sambasa's cabins, and groaned when he saw Caige still on his phone with Taya.

Team Sambasa were scurrying, trying to throw everything into a wheelbarrow for Vincent to throw away into the dumpsters. But, Taya accidentally trips and throws her trash into the pile and it collapses, letting the trash fall over the floor and all over the beach.

The team groaned, "TAYA!" They all yelled. Taya, looking embarrassed, hid behind a pile of trash.

Chris then brought the teams together, "Well, I think it's pretty obvious who won...Team Tillanoy!" The team cheered, but Leo and Vera seemed to exchange side eyes. "Okay Sambasa, see ya at elimination at the dock as usual!" He walked off, but didn't notice Deb glaring at him.

...

(Elimination Ceremony)

Team Sambasa were all seated at the dock, watching Chris drop his marshmallows on a plate, "Okay! Votes! Well...the 2 people safe right now are...

...

...

..

.

Vincent and Dennis!" He threw marshmallows to them, "And the final one goes to...

...

."WAIT!" Deb yelled, and stood up, "I quit! I'm done!"

Everyone gasped, "What?!" Vincent yelled, "Why?!"

"I'm done with this show! Chris...you...you inconsiderate douchebag! Me being mean and loud isn't me but...ooh...Chris you get on my nerves! And I want out now!"

"Sit down!" Chris yelled, "You're not going anywhere! Taya is!" Chef grabbed Taya and brought her to the duck floatie, "NOO!" she yelled.

"Taya!" Caige screamed, running to the dock, "Wait for me!" He grabbed her face and kissed her on the lips, "Bye...I guess..."

"Yeah...Taya mumbled, "Sucks but...you can't have everything...win dis bitch for me, okay?!"

Caige smiles, "Sure..." he kisses her again, and sighs while watching Chef throw her onto a floatie and disappear.

Dennis turned to Vincent and Deb, who both looked sad.

Dennis: (CONF.) *on paper* All of this just seems so ironic! Poor them!

Chris looked to the camera, "We began this season with 14, and now only half remain, can they handle the next few days on Kiki Island, now that we know what everyone seems to be doing? I don't know, but we'll find out next time on Total Drama Kiki Island 3!"
