The episode opened with a shot of the island. "Last time, on Total Drama: Crossover Island...The teams were tasked with building a raft that was seaworthy enough for them to have a race on, with said race going down a river on the island. At first, Squidward managed to make a good impression on his teammates by being rather quick and nimble during the building process, but then failed miserably hard during the race by constantly getting his team in trouble during the race itself. Meanwhile, Daisy found a potential pawn in her teammate Meg when Daisy took notice of Meg's inferiority complex caused by a lifetime of abuse from her family. The Cold Carcasses managed to secure themselves a win during the challenge thanks to Steve's great sense of direction, forcing the Feisty Forks to return to the elimination ceremony and vote off another team member. In the end, it was Squidward who was voted out due to him being more trouble than he's worth. And obviously, Squidward didn't take kindly to his team giving him the boot." Chris gave a recap of last episode's events before the scene cut to him lying down next to the Raft of Shame, his left hand resting on his head.
"Will the Feisty Forks be able to break their pathetic losing streak during today's challenge? Will the Cold Carcasses keep up their winning streak? Which competitor will be forced out of the competition and into the Raft of Shame? Find out the answer to all these questions and more in tonight's episode of Total...Drama...Crossover Island!" Chris finished as the show's intro began to play.
Two spotlights rose into the air as a camera popped up from a trashcan and another came out of a bush.
Dear mom and dad, I'm doing fine.
The camera zoomed across the island before going underwater into a lake to find Empoleon swimming there and he smiled and waved at the camera as he did so. The camera then went to the surface of the water to find Candy Kong and Chunky Kong chatting to each other inside of a boat when an eagle suddenly proceeded to snatch Chunky's hat from his head and flew away with it as Chunky and Candy watched in dismay.
You guys are on my mind.
The camera then went towards a nearby mountaintop where Storm was lifting weights with a boulder when the eagle suddenly dropped Chunky's hat onto his face, blinding Storm as he dropped the boulder and the camera zoomed down towards the bottom of the mountaintop, where Tracey and Pearl were sitting in the shade to escape from the heat of the sun when they suddenly looked and screamed and got out of the way as they narrowly avoided being crushed by the boulder and looked at it in shock, their faces quite pale.
You asked me what I wanted to be.
The scene then cut to Steve and Meg petting a rabbit in an open clearing in a forest before smiling at each other before a bear showed up and Steve and Meg ran off with the rabbit resting in Steve's arm. The bear roared before Undyne tackled it to the ground and knocked it out with a blow to the head.
And I think the answer is plain to see.
The scene then cut to Mina sitting on a rock in the forest as she was singing a song to herself when she was suddenly startled by Red Sniper running past, chasing after a coyote that had stolen his hat from him. Mina was speechless at what she just saw but just shrugged it off.
I wanna be famous.
The scene then cut to Manic and Sonia just walking around the island chatting to each other when Sonia fell into a hole covered by a pile of dead leaves as Manic looked down the hole in shock, also being confused at what just happened. The camera then zoomed out to show Bart hiding behind a bush, struggling to contain his laughter.
I wanna live close to the sun.
The scene then cut to Panchito and Jose sitting in a canoe together as said canoe fell down a water, and they screamed but fortunately the waterfall was a short drop and the two birds continued down the river unharmed as they sighed in relief.
Go pack your bags 'cause I already won.
Squidward laughed at Panchito and Jose's little panic attack. Peach was standing next to him, and she shook her head in disapproval at the octopus' crude sense of humor.
Everything to prove, nothing in my way.
The scene then cut to the mess hall tent, where Chef cringed in annoyance as he grabbed a pair of headphones from the meal he was preparing and put them on and he sighed in relief before angrily looking towards Bessie, who was constantly talking to him, and Chef shut her up by stuffing a spoonful of disgusting food into her mouth.
I'll get there one day.
The camera then turned towards Daisy admiring herself with a mirror before looking at the camera angrily and spraying with some hair spray as it went out of the mess hall tent.
'Cause I wanna be famous.
The scene then cut to Mona lying on the beach, smiling as she was sunbathing peacefully before being rudely disturbed by Chris dropping a bucket of water over her. Mona screamed and angrily looked up at Chris, who was flying a jetpack above her and laughed.
Na na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na. I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!
The camera then turned to Fang the Mutated Shark peeking his head above the sea surface as he grinned and waved at the camera before the camera turned to Danny standing on the docks of the island, doing a little dance as he was listening to music on his cellphone with earpods in before noticing the camera was filming him and he blushed in embarassment before flipping the camera up as it pointed to the sky and the sky changed to nighttime.
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!
The camera then panned down to find Red Sniper lighting a campfire while Panchito tuned his guitar and the other contestants joined them around the campfire. Chris and Chef then walked up to them.
[Whistling] I wanna be, I wanna be famous.
The camera then zoomed out to reveal a sign that read "Total Drama: Crossover Island."
The scene then cut to the Feisty Forks sleeping soundly in their bungalow. "No, mom...Today isn't a school day...Yeah, I checked..." Bart muttered in his sleep before snoring softly.
"See? I told ya we'd find Ma at some point..." Manic chuckled in his sleep before turning over on his other side and smiling in his sleep. Empoleon soon opened his eyes as he heard his male teammates talk in his sleep. Seeing as he had just woken up, the large penguin like Pokémon decided to get out of bed and head to the washrooms to get a shower. He quietly left the bungalow as to not wake up the rest of his teammates and made his way over to the washrooms and went inside to hear the sound of running water. He stepped inside a shower stall, closed the door, turned the shower handle and sighed in satisfaction as he began to wash himself with hot water and soap.
"Aaaah, nothing like a piping hot shower to start your day..." Empoleon muttered as he washed himself.
"Couldn't agree more, amigo! I like a piping hot shower in the morning as well! We don't have those much where I'm from!" Panchito squawked from the shower stall next to Empoleon's.
"Oh, morning, Panchito. Did you sleep well?" Empoleon asked the Mexican rooster with a smile, even though he knew Panchito couldn't see him smile.
"I sure did! What about you?" Panchito asked in a cheery tone of voice.
"I slept well too, thanks for asking. I woke up to the sound of Manic and Bart talking in their sleep, and seeing as I was already awake, I figured I'd go take a shower before Chris wakes everyone else up for breakfast." Empoleon replied.
"I see, I see. I woke up pretty early too, about 6 AM or so. Being both a rooster and a drifter, I'm used to being an early bird, no pun intended." Panchito laughed as he washed himself with hot water and soap.
Empoleon chuckled at that. "Nothing wrong with being an early bird, Panchito. We need both early birds and night owls to make the world work, and I'm glad you're doing your part in making the world work." The penguin like Pokémon told the Mexican rooster with a smile, which Panchito again couldn't see.
"Ain't that the truth? Well, let's finish up our shower and then head on over to Chef Hatchet's mess hall tent for breakfast." Panchito squawked once more.
-Confessional: Empoleon-
"That Panchito is one happy go lucky fellow. I think it's almost impossible to anger him, and I also think that's what makes him all the more dangerous if he does get angry. That's why I feel that it's important to keep Panchito in a positive mood at all times since I wouldn't want to see the consequences of Panchito's rage."
-End Confessional-
-Confessional: Panchito-
"Out of all the people left on my team, I think I've bonded the most with Empoleon. He's just so kind and gentle, and it reminds me a lot of that DJ guy from Total Drama Island. DJ is definitely a guy I'd get along with if we were to meet in the real world some time, and Empoleon definitely gives me the same vibe that DJ gives me. I guess that's why me and Empoleon get along so well, and I absolutely love it!"
-End Confessional-
Meanwhile with the Cold Carcasses, they were also sleeping soundly in the tent given to them by Chef. Candy proceeded to slowly open her eyes, and she slowly sat up as she yawned and stretched. "Aaaah, that's the best sleep I've had since arriving on this island." She remarked with a smile.
Meg also woke up and yawned and stretched as well. "I agree. It's amazing that Sniper wasn't shouting in his sleep last night. It's a miracle Storm wasn't sleepwalking last night either." She replied to Candy with a smile.
"That's definitely a good thing." Daisy chimed in as she got up from her bed. "Perhaps we can use this energy to crush the other team in today's challenge." She suggested.
"I guess it'd be nice to win three challenges in a row, but don't you think it'd get boring if we keep winning every single challenge before the merge?" Mina chimed in as well as she also got up from her bed and walked up to the rest of the girls on her team.
"Mina's right. As much as I'd love to win every single pre-merge challenge, we're bound to lose one at some point. Heck, we could even be losing today's challenge, and when that happens, we have to be ready to vote someone off the island tonight." Mona spoke up as she sat up in her bed.
Daisy nodded at Mina and Mona's words. "I understand your concern, girls. The chance of us losing a challenge at some point is indeed present at all times, and we should start considering our options on who is the weakest link on our team so we can send them packing in the Raft of Shame. But before we start considering those options, we'll have to see who's going to be winning today's challenge." She spoke like a wise woman after having gotten dressed in her regular attire and leaving the Cold Carcasses' tent.
-Confessional: Candy-
"So, I'm getting the feeling that Daisy is taking the lead of the Cold Carcasses team. Not that I don't mind someone taking the lead, since someone's gotta take the lead as long as the teams are around, but the whole way Daisy is speaking as if she's taking the lead of the team just smells...off. I get the feeling that she's up to something, and I think that I might just play along with her charade so I can find out what it is exactly that she's up to."
-End Confessional-
The scene then cut to the mess hall, where the teams were looking at Chris, who was about to announce the next challenge to them. "Alright, campers! It's time for the next challenge! And for today's challenge, I've brought in a former competitor to assist me during today's challenge! Everyone, give it up for Ezekiel!" Chris announced as Ezekiel stepped out from behind him. Ezekiel didn't look like a Hobbit anymore, and his hair had grown back, although his skin was definitely a lot paler compared to before he turned into a Hobbit.
"Hey, isn't that the guy who turned into a Hobbit during World Tour?" Undyne asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yep, the very same." Chris nodded.
"How did he turn back to normal after everything that happened to him afterwards?" Bart asked too.
"Well, Chris had me hospitalized after my parents slapped him with a lawsuit. They were gonna press additional charges against him, but those additional charges were dropped after we came to an agreement that I would assist Chris during today's challenge." Ezekiel explained.
The contestants looked at each other, then back at Chris and Ezekiel. "...Fair enough." Storm remarked.
"Alright, campers! Drop your plates off at Chef's window, and then follow me and Ezekiel to the challenge location!" Chris then announced. The campers proceeded to drop off their plates at Chef's window and then walked after Chris and Ezekiel to the location of the next challenge.
"Hey, Chris. Where'd you find all of these people for this season? They look mega weird, yo." Ezekiel whispered to Chris.
"Just don't worry about it." Chris whispered back to him as Ezekiel silently nodded. Not long after that, they arrived at the challenge location, and the Feisty Forks were sitting in some red colored bleachers while the Cold Carcasses were sitting in some blue colored bleachers.
"So! You're probably wondering what we're going to be doing for today's challenge, right?" Chris asked the campers.
"It better not be a stinkin' trivia challenge, because I suck at those!" Storm yapped in an irritated tone.
"Well, it's not really a trivia challenge. It's more like a challenge we played during Total Drama: Revenge of the Island. Remember how we had a truth challenge back then that we never finished because of some contestants being too much of a chicken to reveal their deepest and most embarassing secrets?" Chris asked the campers.
"Hey, I don't blame Mike for not wanting to reveal he had Multiple Personality Disorder. I can't imagine how Zoey would've reacted to such a thing early in the game." Mona shrugged.
"I'm gonna agree with Mona on that one." Danny chimed in.
"...Right. Well, anyway, today's challenge is similar to the truth challenge from Revenge of the Island, although it'll have a bit of a twist on it. I'll let Ezekiel explain the rest of the challenge here." Chris continued before gesturing to Ezekiel to explain the rest of the challenge.
"Okay. So, Chris told me that for today's challenge, you're all forced to wear shock bracelets around your wrists, which will act as lie detectors. I'm gonna ask each and every one of you still in the game a question that a former competitor sent in, and if you answer that question honestly, you'll earn your team a point. But if you lie, your entire team will get a shock from those shock bracelets you're wearing. The team with the most points by the end of the challenge will win immunity and won't have to vote someone out, got it?" Ezekiel asked the campers after explaining the challenge to them.
"Alright." The teams replied in unison.
"Good! Let's start the challenge then! Ezekiel, grab the first question from that bucket there!" Chris told Ezekiel, who nodded as he proceeded to pull a card from a metal bucket.
"Alright, so this first question is for Storm, and it's from Sky, who competed on Pahkitew Island, I think? My memory's kinda fuzzy on any season that took place after World Tour, to be completely honest..." Ezekiel remarked as he scratched his head.
"Just get on with the question, dude." Chris told Ezekiel with an annoyed look on his face.
"Okay, okay. Anyway, Storm, Sky wants to know: "Would you consider yourself the all muscle no brain type of contestant, much like Lightning from Revenge of the Island?"" Ezekiel asked Storm.
"What kind of question is that?! Are people trying to make fun of me with such questions?!" Storm asked in an irritated tone of voice.
"Just answer the question unless you want your entire team to get shocked and hate you." Chris told the brawny Mobian albatross.
"Okay, okay. Well, if I have to be completely honest? I suppose I would consider myself the all muscle no brain type of contestant. I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I make up for that with how physically strong I am. And look how far Lightning got in Revenge of the Island with his lack of intelligence. I'd say that says a lot about all muscle no brain type of people." Storm spoke after having calmed down.
A "ding" sound could then be heard as the score changed to 1-0 for the Cold Carcasses. "Thanks for your honest answer, Storm. It has put your team in the lead with 1-0." Chris told Storm before turning back to Ezekiel. "Now, Ezekiel. On to the next question." The raven haired host told the home schooled teen.
"On it, yo." Ezekiel nodded as grabbed another question card from the bucket and began to read it. "This next question is from Lindsay, who competed on Total Drama Island, Action, World Tour and All-Stars. Her question for Peach is: "How would you react to a contestant like Heather manipulating you and using you as a pawn to further herself into the game?"" He asked the blond haired princess.
"I would be very upset if such a thing was done to me. I can't stand bossy, manipulative and mean girls such as Heather, and I certainly wouldn't stand for myself to be treated by someone like Heather the way she treated Lindsay in Island." Peach spoke as she shook her head in disapproval of Heather's actions in Island.
The "ding" sound could be heard once more as the score changed to 1-1. "And with Peach's honest answer, the score is now tied at 1-1! Hopefully the next question will have someone's pants on fire from lying." Chris remarked as Ezekiel grabbed the next question card from the bucket.
"Alright, this next question is for José, and it was asked by Gwen who competed in Island, Action, World Tour and All-Stars, much like Lindsay has. Gwen wants to know: "José, I've seen you in action on Crossover Island, and you strike me as a real sleazeball and a simp, much like Cody has acted around me during our time on Total Drama. What I'd like to know is: Is there any girl still left in the game that you have a crush on?"" Ezekiel spoke while asking the next question for the next contestant.
José frowned at being called a sleazeball and a simp. "Okay, while I do not approve of being insulted by Gwen like that, I can say that there aren't really any señoritas on this island that have caught my eye in a romantic manner. 100% honest." The Brazilian parrot assured Ezekiel and Chris before his entire team was electrocuted.
Chris smirked at the sight of the Cold Carcasses being electrocuted. "Are you sure there's no ladies on this island that have caught your eye in a romantic manner, José? Because the electrocution your team just had to suffer says otherwise." He told José.
"Okay, okay. I think I have a thing for Señorita Daisy Duck next to me." José confessed.
"Well, fat chance of you scoring with me, dude. I already have a boyfriend named Donald, so no way am I letting myself get wooed by your sleazy ass." Daisy scowled at the Brazilian parrot, who hung his head and frowned as his team glared at him for costing them a point.
-Confessional: José-
"Caramba, I really messed up back there...Not only did I get rejected by Daisy and costed my team a point, but now my friend Donald Duck knows that I have a thing for his señorita...No doubt is this going to make things awkward for us the next time we meet..."
-End Confessional-
-Confessional: Panchito-
"Poor José. He had a crush on our friend Donald Duck's girlfriend who ended up rejecting him. Donald, if you're watching this, know that you, me and José can discuss this like gentlemen. Even though José has a crush on your girlfriend, we can still be The Three Caballeros, right?"
-End Confessional-
"The score is still tied at 1-1! Will the next question be able to tip the scales in either team's favor? Let's find out!" Chris announced as Ezekiel grabbed the next question card from the bucket.
"Okay, this next question is from Cameron, who I think participated on Revenge of the Island and All-Stars. Anyway, his question is for Undyne, and the question is: "Undyne, you remind me a lot of Leshawna personality wise. Do you believe that you can be as tough or even tougher than her?"" Ezekiel asked Undyne.
Undyne grinned at the question. "Do I believe that I can be as tough or even tougher than Leshawna? I know I can be tougher than her. I mean, come on. I placed second in that Awake-A-Thon challenge last week. If that doesn't scream toughness, I don't know what will." She spoke honestly and pridefully.
The "ding" sound could be heard as the score changed to 2-1 for the Feisty Forks. "And the scales have tipped in favor of the Feisty Forks! The score is now 2-1 for them! Let's move on to the next question!" Chris announced as Ezekiel reached into the bucket and pulled out the next question card.
"This next question comes from Ella, who participated on Pahkitew Island, I think? Are you sure this person even participated Total Drama at all, Chris?" Ezekiel asked Chris.
Chris groaned in annoyance. "Sheesh, have you not kept up with Total Drama after I had you hospitalized?" He asked Ezekiel.
Ezekiel shook his head. "Not really. My parents banned me from watching the show after I returned home from my hospitalization." He admitted as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Whatever. It doesn't matter. Just move on with the question." Chris hand waved at the home schooled boy.
"Right..." Ezekiel replied as he cleared his throat and began to read the question card. "Anyway, Ella has sent in this question for Mina, and she wants to know: "Mina, I know that you're a singer, and that's why I want to know: Have you watched Total Drama: World Tour? If so, what was your favorite song from that season?"" He asked the Mobian mongoose.
"If I had to choose? Probably Lovin' Time." Mina simply responded. The "ding" sound could then be heard as the score changed to 2-2.
"The score has once again been tied up at 2-2! You guys are going neck to neck today! Now, Ezekiel. On to the next question." Chris told Ezekiel.
"On it, yo." Ezekiel nodded as he fished the next question card from the bucket and began to read it. "This next question is for Empoleon, and it's been sent in by Sam, who I believe participated on Revenge of the Island and All-Stars. Anyway, Sam wants to know: "Empoleon, since you're a video game character, have you ever just wanted to break the rules of the game you reside in?""
Empoleon thought about it. "If I gotta be completely honest? I wouldn't mind breaking the rules of the game I originate from. I mean, the concept of Pokémon involves magical creatures being kept in small balls and made to fight each other, and some people might find such a concept morally sickening. Now, I don't mind Pokémon battles myself, but I'd certainly love to break the rules of the game of Pokémon for once if I was presented with the opportunity." The penguin like Pokémon spoke before another "ding" sound could be heard.
"And the score scales have once again tipped in the favor of the Feisty Forks with a score of 3-2! Now let's move on to the next question!" Chris beamed as he threw his hands in the air in excitement.
Ezekiel nodded and proceeded to pull the next question card out of the bucket. "This next question is for Danny, and it's been sent in by Mike from Revenge of the Island and All-Stars. He wants to know: "Danny, as you know, I used to have Multiple Personality Disorder up until the finale of All-Stars, and I tried to keep it a secret from everyone during my time on Revenge of the Island. My question for you is: Do you have any secrets you definitely wouldn't want anyone to find out about?"" The home schooled teen asked Danny.
Danny was nervous as he was asked this question, but he did his best to hide this nervousness behind a stern poker face. "No, not really." He replied before his entire team was electrocuted.
Chris smirked at this. "Are you sure you don't have any secrets you don't want anyone to know of?" He asked Danny.
"Yeah, really. I don't have any secrets like that." Danny assured him before his team was electrocuted once more.
"Are you really sure?" Chris asked once more as he kept smirking at Danny.
"Yeah, are you dense? I really don't have any secrets like that." Danny glared at the raven haired host before his team was electrocuted once more.
"Are you really, really sure?" Chris smirked once more.
Danny was scowling now. "Read my lips: I! DON'T! HAVE! ANY! SECRETS! I! DON'T! WANT! ANYONE! TO! KNOW! OF!" He made very clear to Chris before his team was electrocuted once more.
"Well, I'd say all those electrocutions say otherwise." Chris chuckled.
"I give up..." Danny said as he began crying.
"Now you've done it. You've broken Danny's stinkin' spirit with your stupid attempts to make him spill the beans about something he's not comfortable talking about." Storm told Chris with a scowl as Danny continued to cry. "In fact, if I wouldn't get disqualified or arrested for it, I'd come over there and rip your limbs off." The albatross threatened Chris as Danny gasped and continued crying.
"Just ignore Chris, Danny. Maybe he'll leave you alone." Steve told his teammate with a frown as he rubbed Danny's back to comfort him.
Chris sighed deeply. "Aw, jeez...Is Danny really gonna pull a Mike and be too much of a chicken to spill the beans? Fine, be like that...I suppose we'll move on to the next question then." The raven haired host said as he ran his hand through his hair.
A montage of the contestants answering several questions was then shown. "Do I miss my old life as a thief? Well, sometimes, but I've learned from my time runnin' with Sonic and Sonia that crime doesn't pay, an' I've become clean overtime, an' I couldn't be happier." Manic spoke as the "ding" sound could be heard.
"Is there a murder I regret committing? Plenty of 'em. I mean, with every man I kill, that means a man won't be returnin' home to his wife and kids in the evening." Sniper spoke as the "ding" sound could be heard.
"Yeah, I took ballet classes in school once, and while I may have suffered ridicule from the school bullies as well as a few injuries, it was worth it in the end." Bart confessed as the "ding" sound could be heard and the other contestants clapped for him.
"Do I hate my father? I do, but I don't hate him entirely. I mean, he may be one of the biggest garbage human beings in the history of human beings, but at the end of the day, he's still my father. And besides, everyone in my family is morally flawed in some sort of way. Even our dog is morally flawed in some sort of way." Meg spoke as the "ding" sound could be heard once more.
"Yes, I do get angry, but that happens rarely. It takes a lot to get me angry, so if you really push my buttons, you better be careful I don't have my pistols on me, because I tend to spit bullets all over the place when I get angry." Panchito spoke as the "ding" sound could be heard once more.
"A lot of people might find this gross, but I am a little smitten with Wario, my boss over at WarioWare Inc. in Diamond City. I don't know why, but maybe it has something to do with the fact we both like money. A lot of people might consider me a piece of shit pervert for liking a grown man while I'm underage, but I don't care. It's up to me who I can and cannot like." Mona spoke as the "ding" sound could be heard once more and the montage ended.
"Alright, campers. The score is currently 6-5 for the Feisty Forks. Since we're running a bit low on runtime for this episode, we're going to make this next question the last one of the challenge. If the Feisty Forks answer this next question honestly, they win the challenge. Ezekiel, pull it up." Chris told Ezekiel, who nodded and proceeded to pull the final question card out of the bucket.
"Okay, this final question has been sent in by Owen from Total Drama Island, Action and World Tour, as well as a similar show called The Ridonculous Race. His question is for Sonia, and he wants to know: "Sonia, me and Noah competed on The Ridonculous Race because we knew that if we were to get eliminated on that show, we'd get eliminated fair and square compared to how a lot of contestants have been eliminated on Total Drama. What I wanna know is: How would you react to losing your spot in the game unfairly?"" Ezekiel asked the purple hedgehog.
"I would be very upset if I lost my spot in the game through unfair means, whether it be because of a contestant tampering with the votes during an elimination ceremony, Chris changing things at the last minute or some other dumb twist. Sure, Total Drama may be a game about lies, trickery and deception, but even so, I want a contestant to be eliminated through fair means. I know, that sounds boring and buzzkill like, but that's how I like eliminations on reality show competitions like this the best." Sonia spoke before the "ding" sound could be heard and the Feisty Forks gasped happily.
"And that's the challenge! The Feisty Forks win!" Chris announced as the Feisty Forks began to cheer. The Cold Carcasses, on the other hand, were obviously less happy, because they knew that they had to vote someone off at the campfire tonight. "Feisty Forks, you're safe from elimination for once, and I'm also gonna throw in a sweet reward for you guys for winning the challenge: A wellness treatment in our multi-massage and shower establishment first seen in Total Drama Island! Bonus!" The raven haired host continued to speak as the Feisty Forks cheered once more.
The Cold Carcasses frowned once more. "Cold Carcasses, what can I say? Your winning streak with the challenges has run out today, so I'll be seeing your sorry butts at the elimination ceremony tonight. You better get ready to pick your best loser and send them on a one way trip back to the real world in the Raft of Shame." Chris told the Cold Carcasses.
-Confessional: Bart-
"So I couldn't help but notice that that Storm guy from the Cold Carcasses was quite the powerhouse when it comes to physical strength, and could be useful to the Cold Carcasses in future challenges whenever they need physical strength. So I thought to myself: Why not put the Carcasses at a disadvantage by making them vote out a powerhouse like Storm at the campfire tonight?" Bart spoke with an evil smirk on his face.
-End Confessional-
Bart snuck into the Cold Carcasses' tent that Chef had lent to them and then came back out holding Storm's Extreme Gear board. He took the Extreme Gear board down to the beach and buried it there.
The scene then cut to the guys on the Feisty Forks team making use of the multi-massage and shower establishment they had won when Bart came into the building, covered in sand. "Hey, what's with the sand?" Manic asked Bart curiously.
"Ah, you know how it is with kids my age: We like playing in the sand while we're still young, y'know?" Bart covered up as he began to shower with the rest of the guys.
Manic smiled at that. "Well, ya could've told we ya were gonna play in the sand, because then I would've definitely joined ya." He chuckled as he gave Bart a pat on the back before he went back to showering.
The scene then cut to the Cold Carcasses standing outside their tent as a bunch of their stuff went flying out of it. "Where the hell is it?! I could've sworn it was in my bags this morning!" Storm exclaimed.
"Storm, give it a rest. We already have the stress of an upcoming elimination ceremony to deal with. We can't use your antics on top of that stress." Candy told the albatross with an annoyed look on her face.
"Well, no one's heading to that elimination ceremony before I get my Extreme Gear board back! I'm gonna ask that Chef Hatchet guy if he's got a metal detector I could borrow to find it!" Storm replied before he ran out of the tent to go do just that.
The scene then cut to Storm walking across the beach with the Cold Carcasses to look for his Extreme Gear, and eventually, the metal detector Storm had managed to borrow from Chef began beeping. "This is it! This is the spot!" Storm exclaimed as he tossed the metal detector aside, with Sniper catching it in his hands before Storm began digging in the sand and finding his Extreme Gear board there. "My precious Extreme Gear board! I'm so happy to have you back!" Storm beamed as he hugged his Extreme Gear before looking at his teammates, who were looking annoyed at him. "...What?" Storm asked his teammates, completely oblivious as to why they were mad at him.
The scene then cut to the elimination ceremony at night. "Cold Carcasses, after a two challenge winning streak, your luck has run out, and that has brought you to tonight's elimination ceremony. I'm sure that after six seasons of Total Drama, you're familiar with the rules of the elimination ceremony, but just for you, I'm going to explain them to you: When I call your name, I will toss you a marshmallow as a symbol of your safety. The camper who does not receive a marshmallow tonight must immediately make their way down to the Raft of Shame, step inside it and leave the island. Which means you're out of the contest. And you can't come back. Ever." Chris monologued to the Cold Carcasses before he picked up the first marshmallow from his plate.
"The first marshmallow goes to...Sniper." Sniper smiled as he caught his marshmallow.
"Daisy...and Steve." Daisy and Steve smiled as they also caught their marshmallow.
"Meg, you also get to stay for another three days." Chris told Meg as he tossed her a marshmallow.
"Oh, thank goodness!" Meg beamed.
"Candy, Mina and Mona...You three are also safe for now." Chris told the three campers as he also tossed them their marshmallows. It was now José, Danny and Storm in the bottom three.
"I only have two marshmallows left on this plate. And one of those marshmallows...is for you, José." Chris told the Brazilian parrot as he tossed him a marshmallow, and José quickly ate it.
It was now between Danny and Storm. "Danny, you're on the chopping block for refusing to spill the beans during the challenge. And Storm, you're on the chopping block for trashing your team's tent during the search for your missing Extreme Gear board. The last marshmallow of the night goes to...

...Danny." Chris finished as he tossed the final marshmallow to Danny, who caught with a sigh of relief.
Storm scowled at his team. "Nice. Fuckin' beautiful. I didn't need this stinkin' reality show anyway." He told his team before angrily getting up and walking over to the Raft of Shame.
Chris smiled as he watched Storm take his leave from the elimination ceremony area. "The rest of you, enjoy your marshmallows. You're all safe...for now." He told the nine remaining members of the Cold Carcasses.
The scene then cut to Storm stepping inside the Raft of Shame. The brawny Mobian albatross then began to paddle himself away from the island using his arms, looking at the camera that was following him. "...I guess I was a bit too rough on my team's tent while looking for my missing Extreme Gear board. But it doesn't matter now. Those guys just lost one of their physically stronger players. I hope they realize that." Storm told the camera.
-Confessional: Bart-
Bart evily smirked at the camera. "Well, well. Looks like my scheme was a success. Storm was one of the Carcasses' physically stronger players, and now he's gone. That's gonna mean trouble for the Carcasses once they come up against a physically demanding challenge."
-End Confessional-
The scene then cut to Chris standing in the elimination ceremony area by himself as the Cold Carcasses were walking away from the area. "And so ends another episode of Total Drama: Crossover Island. With Storm out of the picture, will the Cold Carcasses be able to pull through in future challenges? Which team will carry home the win in our next challenge? And which contestant will be the next one to take the Raft of Shame home? Find out next time, on Total...Drama...Crossover Island!" Chris finished.

And so ends another episode of Total Drama: Crossover Island! Storm ended up suffering a similar fate to how Eva was first eliminated in Total Drama Island: He ended up getting caught up in a scheme from an antagonist, in this case the antagonist being Bart, in an attempt to put the other team at a disadvantage. Apologies to anyone who liked Storm, but I didn't have a lot of plans for him in this story, so it only made sense for him to be an early boot.
The challenge was inspired by a challenge from Total Drama: Karon Island by Tempokeep. Be sure to check out Tempokeep's Total Drama fanfictions. It's only fair I give the author who inspired this episode's challenge some promotion. :)
