Chris: Last time on Total Drama Island: we had some campers who were hunters and some who were huntees. Elicia jumped the gun on her prey, causing her to get sprayed by skunks. She smelled nasty, dude! Things heated up between Evander and Francis while Leslie was left out of the loop. Hellen discovered that she might be part deer, that was some wild stuff. Desiree blew it as a deer and, despite her teams efforts, lost the challenge for them. In the end, she was kicked off, groveling for a chance to stay. Man, do I love some groveling. What's going to happen now? Will Francis and Evander settle their score? Find out on tonight's super dramatic episode of Total. Drama. ISLAND!
The camera opens up on the island before showing the campers receiving their paintball guns and their deer costumes. Elicia is seen firing into a bush and getting sprayed by a skunk shortly after. Evander is shown yelling at Francis in the cabin followed by Francis avoiding Leslie. Hellen is then seen sprinting away from Peggy at wicked speeds. Next, Desiree is shown lounging before she gets blasted by the paint from Leslie before the other Bass deer are shown getting shot by the hunters on the other team. Finally, Desiree is shown begging to stay on the island as Chef tosses her onto the boat of losers. The camera cuts back to Chris, who finishes his piece right before the intro starts. When it stops, Peggy is shown looking at pictures of Lukas in her diary.
Peggy: Ah, finally...
Peggy (Confessional): Now, with Desiree out of here, I can have a diary and know that no one will be seeing it, but me!
Annalise, Harriett, and Elicia are shown peeking over her shoulders to see whats in the diary as she slams it shut with an annoyed look on her face.
Peggy (Confessional): Or so I thought.
Elicia: Lighten up, Peg! We just think it's cute that you admire your boyfriend enough to do something like that.
Annalise: Yup, super cute and definitely not creepy at all!
Peggy rolls her eyes and walks outside.
Harriett: Do you think we shouldn't have done that?
Annalise: Oh, she'll get over it.
Annalise (Confessional): Ever since I started working with Wendell, it's been way easier to survive on this show. Not that I needed the help, of course. He and I just need to figure out who we're going to give the boot next.
The campers are shown lined up on the beach in front of Chris,
Chris: Morning, campers! Today's challenge is gonna be a tough one! You had better be on your a-game as a team because today, you'll be cooking a 3 course meal for me, which I will judge and award invincibility as well as a sweet reward to the team that prepares a better tasting platter. Each team is going to pick a head chef who will oversee the cooking and lead their team to victory. Obviously, you'll need ingredients if you're going to cook. Each morning, we get a truck that brings us food. That is where your challenge begins!
Evander pokes his head in the back of the truck and takes a good look of all that is in there. Francis is soon to follow.
Evander: Now, we're definitely going to be three separate pasta dishes to please Chris's palette.
Francis: Uh, I'm the dork here and I think that's lame. Let's do traditional backyard barbecue instead.
They turn to each other angrily and begin to argue over what to do as Lyle pokes his head in the truck.
Lyle: Ooh, guys! We could definitely do Indian cuisine with this. Who doesn't love a little spice?
Harriett: Taking charge like a good head chef would!
Lyle: For real?
Gene: You know it, man!
Lyle: Sweet!
Lyle and Gene high five as Evander and Francis are still arguing amongst themselves. Hellen walks in between them and takes a look at the food.
Hellen: Why don't we do a nice Japanese theme? It's exotic, we might get bonus points for that!
Leslie: Oh! That's a great idea, you should be the head chef!
Francis and Evander stop fighting, exchange a glance, and then turn back to their team.
Francis and Evander: I agree with Leslie!
Wendell raises his eyebrow, seeing the behavior between the two.
Wendell (Confessional): Well, well, well, looks like we've got a nice argument brewing up between two of the teammates. I wonder what's gonna become of this?
The teams are shown walking into a really nice kitchen with their ingredients, setting them down on two large tables and sitting around them.
Lyle: Alright, looks like we have six of us so...let's make teams. Two of us can make an appetizer, another two will handle the entree, and the last two can tackle the dessert. Groovy?
Harriett: Sweet! Me and Gene can make some killer pakoras, right buddy?
Gene's heart shatters as he hears the word "buddy." He falls to the floor, raising some confusion, before he gets up slowly.
Gene: Yeah...pal!
Gene (Confessional): I think I just died and got revived into this painful reality again.
Elicia: Oh! I know how to make tikka masala!
Peggy: Me too! Let's kill this entree!
Duke and Annalise remain, both equally annoyed at the thought of working with each other.
Duke: The champ demands a redraw.
Annalise: Yeah, this isn't fair. He might sweat in the dessert.
Lyle: Come on guys, it'll be alright. I know a recipe for modak! They're super fun to make and eat, I'll toss you two an extra hand while we do the challenge!
The two roll their eyes.
Annalise (Confessional): Honestly, if there was one person I could get rid of right now, it'd be "the champ." Sure, he's strong and all, but he's a complete nincompoop. He's lucky me and Wendell agreed to keep him in the last time he was on the chopping block.
Duke (Confessional): The champ wants to be more of the villain-type now, so I'll have to sabotage Peggy and Elicia. I can't sabotage Annalise, that'd be just like sabotaging myself.
The camera slides over to the Gophers, where Hellen is being just as friendly with her team.
Hellen: Alright, who wants to be on gyoza duty?
Leslie: Oh! Me and Veronica can do it!
Leslie wraps her arms around Veronica in a big hug, the latter just chuckles and nods.
Hellen: Sweet! How about the fried chicken and egg ramen bowl?
Wendell: I think me and Percival should do that one, I know my fried chicken and he knows his...uh...eggs.
Percival shrugs and stands next to Wendell. Francis and Evander notice who they are paired up with and immediately show their disgust.
Evander: Woah, I am not making no dessert with this dweeb! Switch me with Percy or something!
Francis: Yeah, why should I have to be stuck with this bully?
Hellen: Uh, guys. We just need to work together to beat the other team, okay? Why don't you two tough it out through the challenge and then settle whatever issue you have with each other later? You can make something a little easier than most Japanese desserts, Japanese cheesecake.
They look at each other again and sit cross-armed.
Francis and Evander: Whatever.
The camera cuts to Gene and Harriett, who Lyle passes by and, after seeing the progress they are making, gives them a thumbs up. He walks over to Elicia and Peggy, who are also doing a great job. Finally, he stops on Duke and Annalise who are barely making any progress at all.
Lyle: Come on guys, don't you wanna beat the other team? You gotta at least put a little more effort in.
They glare at him and start working faster. As Annalise continues to work hard, Duke peeks over at the sauce Peggy is making. He devilishly creeps over and pours a lot of salt in it, to which she gasps when she sees. He tries to pretend he was doing nothing, but she's already caught him.
Peggy: Duke...thanks! I totally forgot to add the salt, silly me. Glad you caught that!
Duke blinks twice and shrugs before returning to Annalise and continuing to work on the dessert. Chris pops his head in the kitchen.
Duke (Confessional): I don't quite get it. I was trying to oversalt their food, but I actually helped them? Being bad is hard!
Chris: Cooks! You've got 3 hours left! Better use that time wisely!
Wendell, Percival, Leslie, and Veronica are all shown making their food with good pacing while Francis and Evander struggle to keep up with them.
Evander: Earth to doofus, you gotta whisk harder than that!
Francis: If you don't like how I'm whisking then why don't you just do it!?
Evander (Confessional): That little dweeb! I oughtta-
Francis (Confessional): -shove his face in the eggs and then-
Evander (Confessional): -cook him til he's golden brown-
Francis (Confessional): -and feed him to the bears!
Leslie looks kind of upset as the two are arguing, while Hellen goes over to help them. She grabs the bowl from them and whisks the egg whites perfectly and sets it down.
Hellen: Guys, it's just a couple more hours. At least try to get your work done.
Evander: Like I could! This bozo keeps screwing everything up with his scrawny arms!
Francis: Oh, yeah? Well at least I'm actually doing something, unlike you.
Leslie: Stop it! Ugh!
Leslie runs outside crying as both teams look over at the door.
Veronica: Real smooth, guys.
Francis and Evander look at each other with concerned faces and then look down at the floor.
Evander: Hey, you know what dork? You were right, I shouldn't care who Leslie's been hanging around. I mean, I had a chance to get with her and I totally passed on it. What right do I have to be angry when she's around another guy?
As the two are busy reconciling, Veronica and Hellen go to check on Leslie and Wendell slips some super spicy sauce into their mixing bowl without catching any attention.
Wendell (Confessional): Game, set, and match.
Francis: It's cool, I should've just turned the other cheek instead of getting all angry over nothing. We're two very different people, but hey, we can still agree to disagree. Let's set our differences aside and help our team win this thing.
Evander: You got it!
Harriett and Gene are working hard on their appetizer still.
Gene: Hey, Harriett? Do you think we could maybe-
Harriett: Hold that thought, Gene! This needs more spice!
Gene sighs and holds his head in anguish. Meanwhile, Duke cranks up the heat on Peggy and Elicia's dish as it is cooking in hopes to scorch it.
Duke (Confessional): There! There's no way that could've helped them!
Elicia notices that the temperature on the dish has been increased and looks around, seeing Duke trying to return to his spot.
Elicia: Duke! Did you do this?
Duke: I, uh...
Elicia: Thank you so much! The heat was a little low, we definitely should've cranked it up a while ago!
Duke (Confessional): What the fu-
Leslie finally comes back in and sees Francis and Evander suddenly working together like they were best buds. A smile lights up on her face and she happily returns to her station to continue working on her dish. As the time passes, the campers bring them to Chris, who is sitting at a table, ready to eat. Harriett and Gene bring out their appetizer and place it in front of him. As he eyes it, he shows some approval. He then takes a bite and smiles.
Chris: Now that is gonna start the Bass off with a nice 8 points! That was, mwah, excellent! Gophers, what have you got for me?
Veronica and Leslie, who has a ridiculously huge smile on her face, bring out their appetizer for Chris to consume. After the taking a bite of it, he shows his approval with a perfect ten points. Elicia and Peggy bring out the tikka masala next.
Peggy: Have at it, Chris!
Chris takes a bite and is sent into an amazing new world of perfection and flavor.
Chris: Now that, is packing a punch. 10 points for your entree!
Elicia: Alright, yeah!
Elicia and Peggy: Thanks for the help, Duke!
Duke facepalms as the two return to their team. Wendell and Percival bring out their ramen bowl, and place it in front of Chris as Hellen eagerly watches.
Chris: Mm-mm, that's great. That's gonna be 8 points, bringing the contest neck and neck! I'm shocked all of you know how to cook so well. This means that whoever has the better dessert, wins the challenge. Bass, you're up.
Hellen (Confessional): I am so proud of my team! I knew we could kill this challenge!
Lyle: Alright, Annalise, Duke, give him what you poured your hearts into today!
Duke and Annalise roll their eyes and drop their dessert in front of Chris. He takes a bite and immediately appears disappointed.
Chris: I guess they can't all be winners, 2 points! Gophers, you only need 3 to win, let's see what you got.
The two shrug and return to their team.
Lyle: Aw, guys, come on! The other team's gonna win now!
Evander and Francis walk proudly over to Chris and place an elegant looking Japanese cheesecake in front of Chris. He observes it, appearing very pleased.
Chris: That's an A+ for presentation, but how's the taste?
He slowly takes a bite as Francis and Evander appear content with what they made, as well as their team. Wendell snickers as Chris gags and fans his mouth, immediately grabbing and downing a very large jug of water to quell the incredible spice on his tongue. The two seem confused, not recalling putting anything spicy in the dish.
Chris: Guys, I don't think dessert's are supposed to bring the heat. I'm gonna have to stick you with 1 point, which means the Bass win! And as promised, your reward! A five star dinner, under the stars!
The Bass cheer for their victory as Evander and Francis stand defeated.
Francis: I don't get it, what did we do wrong? We followed the recipe...
Evander: I don't know maybe...
Wendell: Oh well, looks like you two screwed up the challenge for us. Off to the campfire ceremony!
They appear even more upset as Veronica, Percival, Hellen, and Leslie pass by, angry that they threw the challenge.
Leslie (Confessional): And I thought they were getting along! Guess I was wrong...
She starts to cry again and the camera cuts to the campfire, where the two are still sitting as miserable as can be. Chris brings his platter, with only 6 marshmallows on it this time.
Chris: Wow, guys. What a depressing looking group. And you're gonna be even more depressed when one of you doesn't get a marshmallow, has to walk the dock of shame, board the boat of losers, and never return to the island, ever. The first marshmallow goes to Leslie.
Leslie walks over and grabs her marshmallow, appearing sadder than she's ever been.
Chris: Next up...Hellen...Veronica...Percival...and Wendell.
The other four grab their marshmallows. Percival, Hellen, and Veronica try to cheer up Leslie and Wendell smirks at Evander and Francis, who are not shocked by the outcome.
Chris: Evander and Francis, your constant fighting today really got in the way of your team's win, didn't it. Not only that, but you killed my tongue! The last marshmallow goes to...
Evander: Hold up, stop the music. Chris, Francis, everyone, I'm kicking myself out of the contest.
Everyone appears shocked, especially Francis and Leslie.
Francis: But, why dude? I totally would've gotten kicked off just now if you waited a couple more seconds!
Evander: Francis, dork, you're a good guy. You make Leslie happy, which is a-ok in my book. I know our dish was messed up, but I honestly don't believe you could've done that. After the way I've treated you, I deserve to ride a hundred boats of shame.
Francis: You...
Leslie starts bawling her eyes out and runs over to hug the two of them really tightly. She is joined by the other three while Percival rolls his eyes.
Leslie: I'm gonna...miss you...so muuuuuuuuuuuuuch!
After his heartfelt goodbye, Evander gets aboard the boat of losers, waving to the rest of his team as he is sent off into the distance.
Wendell (Confessional): You know, not what I expected, but hey. Who cares? It was hilarious!
Meanwhile, Duke is shown walking out of the girl's cabin with Peggy's diary. Peggy sees him and stops him.
Duke: I was just-
Peggy: You were gonna hide my diary in the boys cabin so the other girls couldn't read it! That is so sweet, Duke. You're just like Lukas, you care about other people a great deal!
She happily walks into the girl's cabin and Duke, annoyed, tosses her diary into the trash and storms back into the boy's cabin before the camera fades to black.
