A couple weeks later, Duncan showed up. "Duncan, it's good to see you." Amanda said.
"Thanks." Duncan said.
"Hey, man!" DJ waved him over. Geoff was with him.
"Guys, great to see you again." Duncan said. "Have you been having fun without me?"
"It's never a full party without you, man." Geoff said.
"Man, I can't believe I fell for the girls dirty tricks." Duncan said.
"I can't believe my friend teamed up with that snake, Heather." LeShawna said.
"And I can't believe you let Heather come onto you like that!" Courtney yelled.
"Please, we don't need a repeat of the lamp pole incident." Harold said.
"You did that?" Duncan asked.
"It took nearly three of us to get it off him." Eva said. "Amanda almost called the electrician."
"Well, let's try to keep ourselves in one peace." Cody said. "When we do return home, we don't want to be injured."
"Uh, Cody, that's my job." Jennifer said.
"You seemed to get along with Gwen during the horror challenge." Lindsay said.
"Well, she's cool, but she's practically always buried in that sketch pad of hers." Duncan said.
"I think you should've won." Courtney said. "But, it's also nice to see you again."
"I still don't know how you got kicked off, but at least we're here again." Duncan said. "Man, I am never teaming up with Owen again."
"The dude's cool and all, but there are some limits." Geoff agreed.
"I think it was totally unfair that Chef kicked you off." Lindsay said. "If you were still on the island…"
"Hey, I think I saw Justin in the hot tub." Trent said. Almost all of the girls ran off.
"Is he really there?"
"Nah, just wanted to give her something else to talk about." Trent said.
"Dude, that is so cool." Duncan said, giving him a high-five.
"Almost like you." Courtney said. "Did I say that aloud?"
"Yes, you did." Duncan said. The then noticed something by her neck. "Is that the little skull I gave you?"
"Yeah, I wanted to hold it close to me. In case I never saw you again." Courtney said, blushing.
"You know I never stopped thinking about you on the island. Except maybe when Chris was trying to kill us." Duncan said.
"Good point." Bridgette said. "I can't wait for all this to be over. I've been dying to return home and catch some decent waves."
"Yeah, I know how you feel." Trent said. "I'd like to get back so I can start recording my demo. Since coming here, I've had a lot of inspiration."
"Like you're gothic girlfriend?" Duncan asked.
"Okay, that's enough." Amanda said. "Look, we're all a little tired. How about we head in for the night?" Everyone agreed.
"I hope this is over with soon." Jennifer said. "For some reason, I can't shake this feeling that something bad's about to happen."
"It's probably just you." Amanda said. They headed back in, but Jennifer was still unsure.
