Total Drama Hollywood: Episode 9 – Chef's Impossible
"Can't believe they're making me do this one all by myself." Chef grumbled under his breath, as he walked down the hallway where all the contestants were sleeping at, then looked at the camera and spoke with a soft voice. "Come closer camera-man, good. Now, last time we had a triple elimination… so we can reach the merge quicker. Well… merge ain't here yet. But here's good news, Aftermath is just at the the corner so better get your excitement up as to what will happen, then. Okay, camera-man back up to the elevator now."
Running to the elevator, the camera-guy turned the camera to Chef and gave him a thumbs up. Air horn in hand, Chef pressed down on the button for a few good seconds before barking at the contestants. "Listen up contestants! Get your butts out of bed and get dressed! Ain't no time for anymore beauty sleep now! You have five minutes to get down in the lobby starting now!"
Blowing the air horn one more, he stared at the camera-man and yelled at him. "Skip the stupid intro will ya!"
Intro skipped by the command of Chef.
Down in the lobby, everyone was there in the lobby grumpy and not looking their best like they always do. Chef was walking back and forth with a riding crop in his hand and he smacked it onto a white board that sat in the center of the room.
"Listen up contestants! I. Am. In charge! Today, both teams will be given different assignments. I don't want to hear about any complaining! Do I make myself clear?" He shouted at all of them.
"Yes, chef!" Just about everyone answered. Flora, Samey, Owen, and Felix didn't answer.
"Excuse me? That answer was incorrect and I didn't hear all your voices! So, I will ask you again. Do I make myself clear?" Chef shouted at all of them.
"Yes, sir!" Everyone answered them.
"Good, now here is your assignments." Chef said as he threw both at both teams two different briefcases with their symbols.
Seath's Confessional Scene:
Seath – "Well, this literally sucks. Out of everything possible, we get stuck with Chef. Pretty sure if we had Blaineley today, she would have done a beauty challenge." He said, pulling a comb through his hair. The confessional door soon opened up and Chef's head poke through.
"Excuse me?! Did I say you could do a confessional?!" Chef yelled right at him, and Seath shook his head no. "Then get your butt out there and help your team!"
"Now, each briefcase has different files on an object. Your objective is to reach that object at the given location inside the briefcases, all the while trying to avoid being captured in the process! You captured; you are at higher risk of losing! You will be guided to a room so you can debrief and figure out the papers first!" He shouted at all of them. "And even if there will be time for confessional scenes, they won't be showing cause all of yours will be cut! But I will give each of you a few minutes total to do a confessional scene before the challenge begins!"
Everyone started to leave to do the confessional scene, but Chef blew the air horn at them. "Didn't say you could leave! Now, I am doing a small team switch! Sariel, you are switching to the Wolves! Samey, move yourself and that disgusting cheer outfit of yours to the Bears! You two are staying on those teams until the merge! Now go do your confessionals then get today's events started! Go!"
With that said, everyone dashed off to avoid more yelling from Chef.
Tag's Confessional Scene:
Tag – "This feels like the military right now, I can live with that. It's how I've been living my entire life."
Samey's Confessional Scene:
Samey – "Seriously? Team switch already? For once I am saying this, I wish Chris was in charge of this episode."
Sariel's Confessional Scene:
Sariel – "This isn't the worst thing done… but now, I have to get use to a new team. I had a good few friends on the Bears. Tag and Grant, cause of military stuff."
Flora's Confessional Scene:
Flora – "Holy moley… this episode is going to be freaky. But, I'm a strategist… maybe I can take charge?"
Mike's Confessional Scene:
Mike – "Wow, he's going to cut all confessional scenes after this. So, no more talking after this… Zoe, I miss you. If I get hit by a meatball and see you at the aftermath, we are not going to do Italian for a welcome-back date. We can do something else of your pick."
Owen's Confessional Scene:
Owen – "Do we get breakfast still? When I'm hungry, strange things happen."
Star Demon's Confessional Scene
Star Demon – "So… we're going to be getting some action. Hopefully, I will be able to sing some more songs in the future.
Grant's Confessional Scene:
Grant – "Well… let's get a bit devious on this episode."
Duke's Confessional Scene:
Duke – "We better have a good plan since his hunting team is involved. I don't want to end up in the same situation as last time."
Gwen's Confessional Scene:
Gwen – "If I recall exactly, last time Chef was in charge things were tough. This is going to be intense since he has a whole hunting team backing him up."
Shawn's Confessional Scene:
Shawn – "Avoid being captured is like avoiding zombies. You don't want to get bitten by a zombie, because then you become them or devoured by them!"
Wynda's Confessional Scene:
Wynda – "I have a good feeling about this episode." She popped her knuckles, giving a wild grin to the camera.
Felix's Confessional Scene:
Felix – "Briefcases. Get an object. Avoid capture. Talk about going 007. Woohoo! Wait, is there going to be a hot lady?"
The Bears had been led to a private room where they set the briefcase down on the table; looking at it, they saw that it was a simple lock. "Does anyone know where we can get a key?" Gwen asked, laughing a bit nervously.
"Got one," Felix said and pulled out his dagger. Placing the briefcase on its side, he put the blade at the slit and forced it down to where everyone heard the metal snapping. Blade still intact, he plied open the briefcase as all the papers spilled out.
"That was a good one, Felix." Owen said, laughing a bit.
"Dad taught me that one, case you don't have a key for something like this." He said, putting the dagger up.
Picking up the papers, Samey saw what it truly was. "It's actually a map to the object. Looks like we have to piece it all together first. Does anyone have any tape?"
"I got a pen," Gwen stated holding it out, "We can just mark the papers one through whatever so we know what page comes next."
"Good thinking," Star Demon said as everyone started to piece the papers together. "Once together, who reads it?"
"I'll do it," Grant and Tag said at the same time. The two glanced at each other, now wondering who was really going to do it.
Over with the Wolves, they were examining their briefcase and saw that it was more like a Chinese puzzle box.
"Do you know how difficult these are?" Mike complained, "We don't even have instruction on how to unlock it."
"Uhh, don't you have you're Manitoba personality?" Wynda asked, "If so, use it."
"Uh, that's more treasure hunting and surviving… even with a high-level intelligence. Plus, he doesn't really exist anymore." Mike answered back, "Along with the rest of my personalities."
"Well," Shawn said grabbing the briefcase, "one other solution."
Raising it above his head, he smashed it down onto the floor; the lid of it popped off, but it hit Shawn right in the face and everyone just stared at him. "I'm good. I've taken worse hits on my zombie survival course."
Picking up the papers, a small stapler fell out of the papers and Flora picked it up. "Well, guess we have to put this puzzle together." She said as she put it on the table.
Both maps put together, both teams headed off down the paths to the locations of their objects. Dread falling over them as they felt like they could run into the chef's hunting team at any given moment. Especially for Owen, who once said before in TDWT that he was a buffet to the sharks.
"Ow, my butt!" Owen yelled out, and his team looked at him. Owen turned around for a second to see what got him, and everyone saw that one of sharks on Chef's hunting team had sink his teeth into Owen's butt.
"So, how bad does it look?" Owen asked.
"Uhh, not too bad Owen." Samey said, looking at her team nervously. "It's removable."
"Okay, I'll just fart it off then." He said as he let out the thunder-cracker, as everyone covered their noses.
Shark's Confessional Scene:
The shark coughed a couple of times before pulling out and using an oxygen tank. A quick knock on the door, the other Shark popped in and patted its friend on the head with a concern look.
"From the looks of the map, we need to reach the set where they do all the sound effects for the films to reach our object." Tag said as the Bears continued on; Grant was also reading the map as well. "Just what the heck is the object?" Grant asked a bit confused.
"Won't know till we find it." Star Demon said, glancing around at all the buildings that they were passing by. Looking at his team, he saw that Felix was missing. "Where's Felix?"
"Uh, I thought he was right next to you?" Samey said, as she started to look around the area for Felix. Within a few seconds, everyone saw one of the garage doors to the buildings fall to the floor and Felix walked out. "Nothing there."
"Just what are you doing?" Star Demon questioned, slapping his hand on his face.
"Keeping an eye out and looking around at sets to see if any more of Chef's team is here." Felix said as he rejoined the group. "IF Owen got bitten by one of the two sharks, then who know what else we'll run into here."
"Let's just keep moving." Star Demon said, and the group headed down their path until they came across an action scene set. Staring at it, they heard an explosion down on the other side.
"This wasn't noted on the map." Gwen confirmed to her group. Looking up from the map, they saw that there was an actress in racing gear getting of the car.
"Well, if this set has a work-in-progress, they're probably on break now so let's ask her if we can cut through really quickly." Grant said, heading up towards the actress. The rest of his team followed.
Back with the Exuberant Wolves, Mike was reading the map and looked around at the hangars. "Okay, we turned right two blocks ago, now in three more blocks we need to turn left, then after we pass two hangars turn right." He said, as the team continued walking.
Once they made the left turn, they saw the whole path was blocked off by a large action scene. The whole scene didn't have a single actor or actress on it, not even a director in sight. Right in front of them, a tumbleweed passed them by.
"This-This doesn't feel right," Mike said as he approached the set; his food accidentally stepped on a trigger plate and he accidentally set off an explosive that launched Flora and Seath into the air. "Sorry you guys, I didn't mean to do that!" Mike called out to them.
"Muy bien, my friend." Alejandro said, as his voice came out of a loud speaker. "Fascinating that you blew up two of your own teammates. Now then, let's get the rest of this fun started."
"Seath and Flora are gone… now what?" Shawn said, looking at the rest of his team. Sariel firmly put a hand on his shoulder, her eyes dead set on the obstacle course.
"Shawn, there could potentially be zombies on the other side of this set." She said, "Now, if you don't want them to win then you better them out; if now, well, guess they can have our brains."
Shawn's eyes glanced up at Sariel, and she just shrugged at him while taking a few steps away. Within a few seconds, everyone heard Shawn screaming random things at the top of his lungs and running right through the whole set. Wynda was quick to give Sariel a high five, until they all saw Shawn get launched into the air and land harshly down next to them. Moments after he landed, one of Chef's hunting team sharks landed on its own feet with a chainsaw in its grip. Staring at the Exuberant Wolves, it grinned wickedly and snickered at them.
"Anyone good with sharks?" Mike questioned, as Wynda stepped up.
"Sariel's fast, bet she can also carry someone." Wynda stated, "Sariel, why don't ye throw zombie guy over your shoulders and run. Duke, Mike, you two better start sprinting."
"Got it." Sariel answered, throwing Shawn over her shoulder, she sprinted off at top speed through the set as other explosives went off and a prop-car nearly landed on top of them. Duke and Mike tried their best to stay close to the two of them, but their speed didn't match that of Sariel's.
Sliding across the concrete, Sariel managed to make it through the set until she saw Chef standing right in front of her with a paintball gun in his hands. Laughing, he pointed it right at Sariel and Shawn. Thinking fast, Sariel grinned at him and spoke rather quickly. "Loser say what?"
"What?" Chef answered as Sariel threw Shawn right at his chest, knocking the breath out of him and making Chef fall to the ground. Grabbing his paintball gun, Sariel pointed it at Chef as Duke and Mike made it out of the set.
"Alright Chef, we're going to be grabbing Shawn and heading off now." She said, as Shawn slowly woke up from being out cold. Mike pulled him off of Chef just as everyone heard a loud explosion a few blocks away from them and one very close by where mere moments after Wynda landed right on top of Chef out of breath but looking like she just got off of a roller coaster during a lightning storm.
"Fun, let's do that again!" Wynda said, coughing out some smoke.
"Let's not and keep moving," Duke stated, grabbing her by the wrist and pulled her along as the team walked off. "We need to get our other two members now."
Alejandro's Confessional Scene:
Alejandro – "I was simply put in charge of the set and the explosions; the sharks will do the rest now. For they are very good at following the scent of blood." He laughed a small bit, rubbing his hands together. "Of course, Izzy is in charge of her area too, but I do not control her."
Walking up to the actress that was talking with an intern, Grant tapped her on the shoulder. Her hands gripping the sides of the helmet, she turned around just as she pulled it off. "Surprise! BOOM BOOM!"
Explosions went all about them, one blowing the intern up in the air while slamming Grant and Izzy down to the ground. She just laughed hysterically at the sight and got back up on her feet again. All the while, Grant just stared at her like she was crazy.
"Oh man," Izzy said while laughing, "you should really see your face! It's like disbelief, shock, surprise, utter confusion and at the edge of break down here! Oh, hi Flora and Seath!"
"But they aren't even-" Right before he could finish his sentence, Seath made a crater into the ground next to him while Flora landed directly on top of him. Izzy just laughed at the scene as Seath slowly pulled himself out of his crater.
"Chris is… going to get it." Seath said, glaring a small bit.
"Oh please, Seath, Chris didn't think about blowing you up." Izzy said, dismissing his thoughts. "It was all Heather's idea, she's the one who figured out on her own that you were secretly deceitful, manipulative, and you believed yourself to be better than anyone. When Heather knows something, she knows something good. So, this was her way of payback."
"What?" Seath said moments before his head slammed into the ground, falling unconscious.
"Sweet, I get bag someone today!" Izzy said then looked over at Flora, "Aww, she's still awake. Oh well, I got some more BOOM BOOMS to do!" A wave of explosions that looked like lava gushing out of the ground passed by all them, making them all freak out as the explosive wave settled down.
"Guys, I will handle Izzy. Plus I get to fight the hot lady," Felix said pulling out his daggers. Izzy merely laughed at him, and brought out metal fire batons.
"Yay fun! I love playing this game!" She said while laughing; while the rest of the Flagrant Bears gathered Seath and Flora. "Uh no, leave Seath behind, he's captured. You can take Flora since she can still move."
"What is wrong with your head?" Samey questioned her.
"Yeah, I have no idea." She said, "Not even my doctors can solve it. No really, they can't." Launching herself right at Felix, the rest of the team took Flora and made a break for it.
After a while of walking with them, they eventually ran into the Exuberant Wolves. "So… our objects are in the same building?" Grant asked the Wolves.
"I guess." Duke answered, until the sound of Chef's voice filled the air.
"Attention both teams, you have reached your destinations. Now, here's the hard part." They all heard him say. "There is only one object! There were never two objects, so fight amongst each other, get someone to go through the building and grab it! Because both teams are the enemies now!" With that said, both teams stared at each other for a second or two.
"What the heck?" Mike said, just as Grant grabbed a hold of Flora.
"Well, looks like we got a hostage." He said, smirking at the Exuberant Wolves. "I know the sharks followed us, and with the fact that Flora and Shawn has been hurt, including Seath, worst than the rest of us, she's the perfect bribe."
"Whoa, Grant, that's cold and dark." Samey said to him, a bit of fear in her voice.
"Oh, shut it Samey. This is a competition, like Heather said back in Total Drama, we're not here to make friends." He said, glaring at her. "Plus, we all do anything to win. Especially the five million dollars."
"Man, that's darker than Heather." Gwen pointed out. "But then again, it's always about the money that brings the worst out of people."
"Yeah, that's true Gwen." Grant answered, giving her a small smile that was genuine. "It happens to all people."
"Then please let me go?" Flora asked him, "I know we don't know each other well… but you can use someone to really talk too, I can see that honestly. And I'm for it with second chances. So, do we have some peace between us?"
"Yeah…" He said, then glanced over at Tag and Star Demon. "You two, get going already, we got a game to win." With that said, Star Demon and Tag went running in to the studio, Sariel and Mike followed after the both of them without second thoughts.
"So… what do the rest of us do?" Owen asked as he farted once more, making Gwen and Samey cover their mouths.
Inside the studio, the four of them stared at the complex space before them. Laser fields, moving platforms that either dropped or raised up, and both of the sharks stood in their way to a box. Cocking Chef's paintball gun, Sariel fired it right at Star Demon's leg making him fall to the ground. Using his other leg for support, he jumped right at Sariel and grabbed hold of the paintball gun. "Tag, run for it!"
"Mike, use your skills!" Sariel called out, and the two both saluted to their teammates and headed off through the course. The skills of Svetlana running through his blood, Mike made it through the course with Tag a meager way behind him. Jumping onto a platform, one smacked him down as Tag finally reached him. Laughing, he almost got smacked off by a moving platform but jumped right onto it.
Getting back up again, Mike followed after Tag and it was a race between the two until they both reached the sharks. Grant, grinning at his shark quickly grabbed it and managed to flip it right onto Mike as the other shark launched itself at Mike. Grabbing the box, he cheered at his victory and opened it up to see a small note in it.
Opening up the note, he read the words out loud. "Congratulations, you have completed the challenge and probably did something that's never going to be useful to you again later in life. Sincerely Chef."
"Seriously? That's all?" Mike said as Sariel and Star Demon caught up to them, moments after Tag read the letter.
"Welcome to the poolside, contestants. Tonight, you're not getting any Mr. Coconut plushies." Chef said as he stared at the two teams before him. "Not tonight, for tonight, you are simply going to be getting a little treat from the first season of Total Drama. EXCEPT FOR THE LOSER!"
Team Exuberant Wolves stared at Chef with wide eyes as an intern came out with a tray of marshmallows. Standing next to Chef, the intern held it out to him and Chef removed on. "Sweet, puffy marshmallows, makes that little sweet tooth of yours grow up… I bet you're all wondering what the loser gets. Ain't no meatball bazooka tonight, that's up in the shop." Whistling, another intern came out with a case that had the toxic symbol on it. "Loser gets a toxic marshmallow from Revenge of the Island."
Chef and the two interns just laughed as the contestants in front of him moved a bit farther away. They've all heard what happened on Revenge of the Island, and no one was willing to touch that marshmallow. Heck, not even Owen would dare. "Now, I wasn't expecting a double elimination, but Seath got pulled out because of medical reasons, so now the teams are truly uneven. First up safe is… Sariel. Followed by Shawn and Mike. Wynda, you held back a shark and managed to get your team to advance, good job."
With that said, that simply left Flora and Duke now. Flora stood up to say something but Chef glared at her to sit down, which she immediately did. "Now, you two fools are close. I can see that." Chef said, adding in a small chuckle; while Flora and Duke looked at each other a bit confused. "But loser tonight, is Flora."
"Well, it was fun while it lasted guess I could have been a bit more of help instead of being blasted off into the air like that, huh?" She said, looking at her team. "Well, good luck guys. See you all at the finale. Oh Chef, no need to bring me that marshmallow."
Chef turned to the camera, and gave it one of his more natural grins. "Well, Flora's gone but now she's going to be on the Aftermath. Who knows what might happen? Oh, they'll be the ones explaining when the merge is going to come. Till then, stay tune for Total Drama Hollywood. Now cut the camera!"
