A/N: And we're finally back people! Took a while but we should get back to monthly uploads after this. I've decided not to respond to the reviews from last chapter as it has been so long. That said I appreciate you all for reviewing. Just so you know two new characters' will be added to the cast this season.
The episodes begins with a shot of the Wawanakwa sign. "Welcome back to Total Drama Island." The view zoomed out until Chris can be seen on the dock. " It's been a long time since you last saw our campers slugging it out for the 100,000 dollar grand prize. Since the competition came to its shocking and dramatic conclusion, our campers have had some time to," He gestured offscreen and Chef is shown grilling a steak at the resort. "snack on some real food" Chef gave him an irritated look. " no offense Chef," Chris is shown back on the dock. "take a hot shower, get their stuff back and even peruse their e-mails from home.
"There were losers." A toaster flies towards Chris who ducks. "Okay lots of losers," The host chuckled. "but there was only one winner." Chris held up picture of Kitty to show the camera. "Kitty the younger of two sisters, and selfie loving social butterfly, turned out to be the surprise champ." A series of clips show Kitty posing in episode five, maintaining a cheery attitude even after Harold spat water in her face in episode four, getting excited over the alliance in episode seventeen and finally being handed the check in the finale. "Despite her carefree attitude, friendly demeanor, and no strategy, she ended up with one massive prize." Everyone is shown cheering in the stands after Kitty's win, "She's planning a wicked tropical party for all her fellow campers this winter, but first their gonna move their booties for one final poolside rap party," The boat of losers is shown driving away from the dock. " and tomorrow everybody's headed for home."
Back at the docks Chris smirks. "Or are they?" He winks. " Find out here on Total Drama Island!"
(intro)
{Several camera's pop out of the trees often to the endangerment of the wildlife. A clapboard pops up and we are guided down the dock of shame.}
Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doin' fine;
{The camera glides past a startled Chris sitting in a chair and up the tall cliff.}
You guys are on my mind!
{The camera dives into the water to reveal Anne Maria swimming.)
Ya asked me what I wanted to be,
And now I think the answer is plain to see!
(The jersey reject's hair is so full of chemicals it kills a nearby fish. The camera pans to the surface where Kitty and Geoff are having a splash fight. They stop as the fish floats between them, where a bald eagle grabs it in its talons. The follows it as it flies above the forest and drops the fish.)
I wanna be...famous!
(There is cut to the forest floor, where Dawn sits Indian style on a large stump. The moonchild is surrounded by animals. The fish falls and the animals scatter leaving a startled Dawn. The shot zooms out to show Duncan laughing at the result, while a nearby Xena stares at him, an eyebrow raised.)
I wanna live close to the sun!
(Harold and Ellody are on a raft going over a waterfall. The genius is gripping the nerd in fear. Harold doesn't seem to mind even as the raft falls.)
Well pack your bags, 'cause I've already won!
(A pan down shows Scott sneaking across a log. The camera follows him left.)
Everythin' to prove, nothin' in my way;
(The deviant runs to the outhouse confessional and pushes it over sending Camron out onto the ground. The camera continues left to the mess hall where the Silhouette of chef is visible
I'll get there one day.
(the camera goes through the window to show a smirking Chef with an arm in a pot filled with liquid of a sickly shade of green. He glances towards a tied up Tyler and Max. The two share a nervous glance.)
'Cause I wanna be...famous!
(the camera pans left to show Jo and Lightening arm wrestling. Neither of them are making much camera zoom out a nearby window to show Crimson and Noah sitting on the steps leading to the beach. The goth is deadpan, while cynic seems to be looking right)
(Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(the camera moves right to show Alejandro and Amber sitting on the docks as the flustered brunette tries to pretend she's looking at her book and not the attractive Spainard. . The camera pans across a short expanse of water where a seagull gets pulled under the water by a tentacle of some kind.)
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (N a-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(Ella twirls onto the dock a chorus of birds swirl around her in an almost choreographic way. The Princess wannabe twirls a couple more times as the birds follow.)
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(Two birds fly past Ella in opposite directions. They fly into the air and the scene transitions to night. The camera pans down to show Sammy and Trent looking at each other and smiling. Their happy moment is ruined as Amy pushes Sammy off the log and sits on the log herself, much to Trent's dismay.)
*The sound of the theme being whistled goes through the air *
(The camera pulls out to reveal Sammy on the ground. Everyone else is around the campfire and a sign with the words Total Drama Island flashes as the song ends.)
(end of intro)
Chef is shown still grilling his steak, in his purple swim shorts and orange floatie. The camera pans right to show the buffet table. Max is standing behind it and Lightning in front of it eating a plate of sausages. This is followed by Kitty dancing with the giant check she'd gotten in the finale. Geoff stood at her side also dancing to the music.
"This resort rules!" Kitty cheered.
"I know right?" Geoff replied happily. Tyler ran in front of the couple in his red swim trunks and threw an orange frisbee. The camera followed it through the air as it crossed the nearby pool. Duncan stands nearby the pool as Noah and Crimson are chilling on the side. Crimson in her normal clothing and Noah in his blue swim shorts with red flowers. Camron stands just behind them. Camron catches the frisbee and the force causes him to fall into the pool.
He surfaces and climbs out. "I'm so relieved the show is over. I'll never forget the experiences I've had, but it is nice to be able to indulge in leisure." Camron struggles to throw the frisbee over the pool and it drops . Duncan rolls his eyes grabs it and throws it across the pool properly.
The camera follows the frisbee again before zooming out to show Sammy and Trent enjoying the hot tub together. It flies past and Tyler jumps up to catch it but misses. It continues it's path past the pool with the small bar in it. Alejandro is relaxing in the water as Amber does the same, resting her head on his chest. Anne Maria looked on jealously. Behind the bar we see Tyler still running after the frisbee and literally hitting into a nearby lamppost.
The focus is placed on the three in the pool. Amber sighs happily. "Comfortable?" Alejandro teases.
"Yeah." The bookworm admitted. "It's so nice to just relax you know? Not worry about strategy."
"Indeed. I no longer have to worry about my feelings for you effecting my game." The Spaniard agreed.
(Confessional)
Amber: You know when Alejandro's not competing he's actually pretty nice. Egotistical sure, but honestly who wouldn't be with his talent, charisma, and physique.
Static
Funky music played as Chef used a grill fork to lift his steak off the grill. He took a huge sniff and chuckled to himself before placing it back on the grill. He did a couple dance moves and returned to his cooking. To his left is Geoff, Kitty and Lightning. Geoff is eating marshmallows. Kitty is doing the same but she's counting. "And that's 75." She cheered drinking a soda.
"It's so cool how much you can eat Kitty! Most of the girls I've met are so careful. Like, what's the point of coming to an awesome party if you can't chow down?" Geoff complimented.
"Lightning'd never eat so many empty calories. I gotta carbo load so I can carry the team!" The football jock bragged.
"Cool dude, you do you." Geoff smiled.
(Confessional)
Geoff: I'm so psyched to have Kitty here! Sure the resort was fun before, but with her here it's just even better! Like we don't need to worry about the game man!
Static
Ella sat in a beach chair over by the pool. A goth girl with teal streaked black hair that went down to her chin, a pale skin tone, and teal lipstick came by wearing the intern uniform. She was pushing a laundry cart. "Oh, do you require any assistance?" The princess wannabe asked.
"I can handle it." The goth replied irately.
"Truly I do not mind-" Ella began.
"Just stay out of my way so I can do my job." The goth snapped.
"Oh, sorry." Ella muttered.
We follow Gwen as she moves the laundry cart. Just ahead leaning against a tree is another person in an intern uniform. He is a young teen with a healthy skin tone, narrow green eyes, and dirty blonde hair styled in a lazy pompadour. Gwen glared at him. "Topher I thought you were getting Chris his coffee."
"I already did. Exactly how he likes it. I still get goosebumps when I see him." Topher said. "So I figured I'd take a break on the way back."
"Take a break? You've barely lifted a finger." The goth deadpanned.
"Hey, keeping myself this photogenic takes work." Topher excused.
(confessional)
Gwen (intern): Ugh, so I signed up for the show and didn't make the cut. Apparently so did Topher. I'd completely forgotten about it when I got a call. There's a clause in the contracts they had us sign to audition that allows them to use us as interns. So this sucks. Why is Chris hiring interns anyway? The show's over.
Static
Back at the pool Noah and Crimson are talking. The frisbee from earlier flies over their heads and Camron runs off screen to get it. "You know, when I signed up for the show I wasn't expecting to meet someone who clicks with me like you do." The goth droned.
"Neither was I. I'll admit, I was expecting to go through the game by myself. You made everything bearable." Noah smirked.
"I can't wait for you to meet my best friend." Crimson said pulling out a picture of a male goth with black and a red fringe, yellow eyes with black circles painted under them, black lipstick and a red goatee with a piercing on either side of it. "This is Ennui."
"Huh. Well he's interesting." Noah said.
Camron ran back and attempted to throw the frisbee over the pool again. It still dropped but somehow it was skating across the water's surface. Tyler looked excited. "Throw me the Frisbee!" It hit straight into his face, causing him to fall into the pool below.
Over on another part of the pool Dawn and Ella noticed him fall in. "Oh dear let me help!" Ella called.
"We need both of us to lift him!" Dawn said running after her. They reached the side of the pool and held their hands out. Tyler grabbed on to one of each. His weight nearly pulled them in but Dawn wrapped her other arm around Ella's back for support, prompting the princess wannabe to do the same. "We must hold firm!" Dawn declared.
"Together we are stronger than as one!" Ella agreed. With one final pull they got Tyler out of the pool.
"Thanks." Tyler said. Walking over a a pool chair and flopping into it to catch his breath.
Harold and Ellody pass by Harold is holding a purple notebook at reading from it. Ellody seems to be very interested in what he's saying. "And that's why beavers shouldn't be considered members of the vermin family. Their skeletal structures are like totally different from rats. I mean, just look at their teeth. I can loan you my journal where I've made a bunch of drawings of beavers and rats, if you promise not to get food on it and stuff."
"I'd love to. The comparison sounds fascinating. There's no need to worry about the journal. I'm meticulous in my care of books, and I promise I will return it to you in the condition it was given." Ellody told him.
Harold smiled and handed her the journal. The two of them continued chatting as they passed Sammy and Trent in the hot tub. Trent seems happy.
"I'm so glad this competition is over. Now I can spend time with you without worrying about it." Trent told her.
"Yeah..." Sammy trailed.
"Something wrong?" The guitarist asked.
"It's just... we're going home soon. I'll be at home with Amy, and you won't be there." Sammy said worriedly.
Trent cupped her cheek. "It's okay. I know you can stand up to her. Remember the bike challenge?"
"But you were there, and so was a bunch of other people who supported me. When I'm alone Amy's much better at getting to me." Sammy sighed.
Trent smiled reassuringly. "Hey, I'll give you my phone number, and if you ever need to vent, or just need some positive reinforcement, I'll be there."
The sweet twin smiled. "Thank you." And the two kissed.
Meanwhile Duncan is dancing to the music. He looks to see the Goth intern from earlier walking past with a now empty laundry cart. He smiles at her and shoots her a finger gun. Gwen can't help but give a small smile back.
Geoff smirks as he approaches Duncan. "See something you like dude?"
"That intern looks like she'd be fun to hang with, and she's not bad looking either." Duncan answered.
"Dude you should ask for her number." Geoff said.
"Maybe. I mean we'll be going home soon. I have idea how close to me she lives." Duncan pointed out.
"True, but you could ask for her email and chat online." The party dude said.
"That'd be nice. Okay, next time I see her." Duncan decided.
The camera panned over to the pool, where Noah and Crimson as still sitting. Amy walks by and the camera shows the side of her head, where an angry face has been drawn. Noah chuckles. "Because she wasn't able to show her anger with just one face."
"What's so funny?" Amy glared.
Ella, being the good friend she is, told her. "Someone drew an angry face on the side of your head."
"What?! Who did that!" The mean twin said angrily.
Max took this moment to reveal himself. "It was I! The viscount of vengeance! The duke of despair! The archbishop of animosity! The-"
"Deadbeat who's gonna get a knuckle sandwich if he doesn't shut up." Jo threatened as she passed by. Max wisely shut up.
(Confessional)
Max: Since I got voted out first last time, no one got to see how evil I was! They're all talking about Jo, or Alejandro, or Amy. I am ten times the villain those wannabes are!
Static
A dramatic sting played through the loudspeaker. The camera showed shots of everyone taking notice as dramatic music swelled in the background. First Tyler, then Anne Maria, Alejandro and Amber, followed by Trent and Sammy, and finally Dawn and Ella. A close up of a suitcase is shown, followed by a pan up the host carrying it, a smile on his face. Chef took the check from Kitty.
Chris set the suit case down in front of Duncan and Geoff. "Hello campers." The host taunted.
"That's ex campers to you." Duncan snapped back.
"Yeah, your stupid game is over." Amy said.
"We'll see about that..." Chris whispered to Chef. "Congratulations to our winner, Kitty. You played hard," Clips of Kitty throughout the competition are shown. Kitty running after Jo in episode nine, Geoff at her side and Harold trailing behind, Kitty giving Noah a side hug in episode 24, and finally Kitty taking a farewell selfie with Duncan in episode 16. "Fought hard, befriended hard, and selfie'd harder."
"Not sure how, but you beat every other person on this island, and your pockets will soon be stuffed with cheddar." Chris finished.
Almost everyone cheered at this, with only the saltiest players, plus Xena and Crimson, remaining silent. Kitty beamed. "Yeah, give me that money!"
"But what I'm about to offer you may change all that." Chris continued. Chef stood between the host and Kitty holding the suitcase. "Inside this suitcase is one million dollars!" As Chris said this the camera zoomed in on the suitcase. Everyone looked shocked. "We had our PA's make a cardboard check of this awesome new prize." A shadow began to loom of the contestants, the sun was shown getting blocked out by the corner of the check, it slid across the resort, behind Amy, Noah, Crimson, Max, Tyler, Ella and Dawn. The latter of which looked horrified.
A shot of the island was shown, revealing the check to be so huge it covered a third of the island's shore. "We went through a lot of cardboard to make this." The shot cut to Chris talking to Kitty. "Kitty girl, this million dollars could be yours," Chris told her point to the suitcase held by Chef. "All you have to do is figure out where we're about to hide it, and bring it to the dock of shame before anyone else does."
"So wait. Are you saying any of us could win that Million?" Crimson deadpanned.
"Yep." Chris responded. "What do you say Kitty? Will you settle for 100 Gs," He pointed to the check. "Or one! Million! Dollars!"
Surprisingly Kitty answered immediately. "No."
Chris looked shocked. "I'm sorry what?"
"Look if it was all my money I'd be more than willing, but I promised 50,000 of that to my sister for her college. I'm not gonna risk losing it." Kitty said.
Chris and Chef whispered to each other. Then Chris turned back with a smile. "If we let you keep 50,000 for your sister, will you play?"
"Only if you write out a check for 50,000 and hand it to me." Kitty said.
Chris sighed and pulled out his checkbook grumbling. He wrote out a check signed it and handed it to Kitty. The selfie lover held it up and examined it critically before nodding and putting it in her pocket. "If this bounces you will hear from a lawyer."
"Yeah, yeah. So you ready to play?!" Chris exclaimed.
"Game on!" Kitty agreed.
Chef smiled as he tore the giant check in half. Chris regained his smile. "That's the spirit." A member of the camera crew picked up the silver suitcase and walked away with it. "Throughout the day, I'll give you all hints from the loud speaker, just to make sure you're not completely lost."
(confessional)
Jo: Okay things have gotten interesting. That million dollars is mine.
Static
Chris has a cork gun in his hand. "Alright campers, the ultimate million dollar challenge starts," he shoots the gun. "Now!" A seagull with a drink ring around it's throat is hit by the cork. It falls to the ground, and Kitty runs off. Chris and Chef look at the other teens if surprise. No one has started to move. Dramatic music plays as the teens are shown. First Trent, Sammy, Duncan, Geoff, Xena, and Jo, who were all around, or in, the hot tub. Then the group by the pool, Amy, Noah, Crimson, Max, Tyler, Ella and Dawn. Then Anne Maria, Alejandro, Amber, Harold, and Ellody. Finally Camron, and Lightening.
"So let me get this straight. After tormenting us all summer, you expect us to go running around the island again?" Amy rolled her eyes.
"That's right." Chris smiled and nodded.
"But how do we know you actually have a million in that suitcase?" Amber asked.
"You don't." Chris replied.
"I'd love to play another round of humiliating the teens, but I have other things to do." Noah replied.
Duncan walked past Chef and Chris. "Aw, sit on it." He scoffed.
"Yeah!" Lightning said.
"Fine..." Chris shrugged. "Suit yourselves, I'm sure Kitty will be happy to have no competition, while she makes the easiest million dollars in TV history. "
"Fine." Noah said.
"Fine." Ella said.
"Indeed." Alejandro agreed.
No one budged. Tension was in the air. Jo looked like she was considering going for it, as was Scott, Lightning, Amy, and Alejandro. Eventually it was Jo who spoke up. "Well you guys can stay here! I'm gonna get that million!"
At the exact same time everyone moved to get started. They ran past Chris and Chef... and immediately all ended up in a huge pile up. Everyone groaned as they all attempted to escape. Chris and Chef were smiling. Chef whistled to get everyone's attention. After a beat of silence Ella spoke up. "Why don't we work together friends?! We could split the prize money between all of us."
There was another beat of silence, then everyone began to argue again. At the bottom of the pile is Alejandro, struggling to be free of the pile up. Amber grabs his hand and pulls him out the pile. She grins wildly. "We can compete together this time! We both made it far in the competition, so if we work together we'll be unstoppable! We can spilt the prize money fifty- fifty!"
Excited as the bookworm was she kissed Alejandro passionately. She pulled away and Alejandro smirked. "I love it went you get like this."
"Can come wit' you?" Ann Maria asked.
"No! The last thing we need is someone who won't do anything for fear of breaking a nail!" Amber snapped.
(confessional)
Amber: I'm really glad Alejandro's partnering with me on this. He's strong, smart, talented, and charismatic. He can take anything anyone throws at him. Literally the best person to team up with from a strategic point of view. Even if he wasn't my boyfriend.
Static
Harold, Ellody, Camron, and Xena were all grouped together. "A nerd's alliance? With our combined wit we should be able to find the suitcase in no time!" Harold said.
"I'm not sure of that. Certainly our mental fortitude is unparalleled but our physical prowess is lacking to say the least." Xena pointed out.
"True, but we're four people so we could use our numbers against the other team." Ellody said.
"I suppose that is true, still it would benefit us to seek out someone physically fit." Xena suggested.
Camron walked to Tyler. "Hey, you want to join the four of us?"
"Yeah!" Tyler agreed. He ran over and tripped.
Anne Maria and Lightning stepped over him. "Nice moves dweeb." Anne Maria laughed. Jo trailed behind the two, Clearly not enthused to be working with them.
"Dawn, would you like to partner with me?" Ella asked the moonchild.
"I'd be delighted." Dawn replied.
"I was hoping Ella would partner with me?" Amy frowned.
"You can join us." Ella told her. "Right?' She asked Dawn.
"I'm not fond of you Amy, but you're friendship with Ella is genuine so I will partner with you." Dawn said.
"Whatever." Amy brushed her off.
Scott approached them. "Hey ladies it's your lucky day because I'm in the market for an alliance."
None of the girls looked amused. "Scott, past experience has told me you're a terrible team player." Dawn said.
"Not you mention you smell." Amy scoffed.
"And you aren't very nice..." Ella said. "Sorry if that's too harsh."
The girls walked away.
(Confessional)
Scott: It's almost like sabotaging your team makes you untrustworthy. Still there's gotta be at least one sucker willing to team up with me.
Static
Scott scanned the people and spotted Duncan, Kitty, and Geoff.
"We're gonna win this million!" Geoff said.
Scot smirked and approached them. "Hey, we were all on the Bass, and I think we did pretty good for ourselves. Together the four of us can totally get this suitcase."
"Please, like we'd trust you for a second." Duncan scoffed.
"Yeah I'm usually pretty open to people, but you tried to give Geoff bad luck." Kitty said.
"Seriously not cool bro. That tiki thing was cursed." Geoff glared.
"Besides you didn't even make the merge." The selfie lover said.
"Why are we wasting time on this dork anyway?" Duncan smirked. They all walked away. Scott grit his teeth in frustration.
Noah and Crimson walked by, completely ignoring Scott. The deviant frowned and moved to a nearby tree where Sammy and Trent are standing. "So. you wanna team up to get this million?" Sammy asked.
"It'd be my pleasure." Trent replied.
"Hey, Trent you made it pretty far in the competition. What say we team up?" Scott asked.
Trent gave him a flat look. "Do you even know my girlfriend's name?"
"Isn't it Samey?" Scott said.
"Point proven." Trent said. He and Sammy walked off.
Max Approached Scott. "You're in luck! I'm-"
"No." Scott snapped.
(confessional)
Scott: So I might be desperate for a partner, but desperate enough to hang out with his evil annoyance? No. Probably.
Static
Max ran after Scott. "You didn't let me finish! I'm recruiting a new sidekick and I think you'd be perfect for the job!"
Scott took a deep breath. "I'm gonna hate myself for this." He muttered. He put on a smile and turned. "Hey, now that you mention it, that sounds like a good deal."
"Yes! I knew you wouldn't refuse! Together we will-" Scott was already walking away. "Wait a minute, you're the sidekick I'm supposed to lead!"
The next little bit was the Total Drama theme song playing in the background as all of the groups were shown looking for the suitcase.
/
A full shot of the island was shown. The loud speakers turned on and Chris' annoyed voice came through. "Okay this is pathetic campers." The loud speaker was shown in close up. "It's been two hours now and no one has even come close to finding the suitcase. "So here's your first clue. It's just hanging around."
Crimson and Noah were shown walking through the woods. "How many square hectares is this island again?"
Crimson shrugged. Scary dramatic music played as animals were shown running away from Crimson. Two squirrels dared to jump down a tree branch towards Crimson. They look one look at her deadpan face and one of the squirrels fainted from fear leaving the other one to catch them. A bird flew by and was so distracted by Crimson's aura of scary that it flew into a tree.
"Any sign of the suitcase?" Crimson asked.
"No, but at least we know the animals won't bother us." Noah smirked.
/
Anne Maria, Jo, and Lightning are searching through the woods. Lightning is still excited, but Jo is frustrated and Anne Maria is filing her nails. "How big is this Island?! Maybe we'd have found the suitcase by now if someone was pulling their weight." Jo said, glaring at Anne Maria.
"Okay, I've been lookin'. So don't you mouth off ta me." Anne Maria snapped.
Before Jo could say more Lightning interrupted. He had climbed up a tree. "Man, Lightning doesn't see that suitcase anywhere! He's starting to think Chris is holding out on us."
Jo rolled her eyes.
(confessional)
Jo: Lightning might be dumb, but he's the strongest person on island, aside from me. So I'm willing to 'partner' up with him.
Static
"I see you're having trouble finding the suitcase as well." Alejandro's voice came from off screen. He and Amber joined Jo and Anne Maria under the tree.
"Ugh. Al we're not interested in joining forces with you." Jo scoffed.
"Speak for yourself." Anne Maria said.
"Well I wouldn't want to join up with you either." Amber glared.
"Aw well," Alejandro smirked. "More money for us." With that the two walked away. Jo grit her teeth angrily.
/
Meanwhile the suitcase is shown hanging from a tree. Dawn, Ella, and Amy are walking towards it.
"It's so nice to be in nature." Ella sighed happily.
"Yes, and nature is truly happy to be around you." Dawn smiled.
Amy pretended to gag. "Enough with the lovefest. Has anyone seen that suitcase?"
At this point they are directly under the suitcase, but somehow none of them thinks to look up. "Sorry I got distracted by the majesty of the island's wildlife." Ella admitted.
"Well we're not gonna find it standing here. Come on!" Amy insisted. Running forward, Dawn and Ella follow along.
Sammy and Trent arrive next, with Sammy looking at the ground sheepishly. "Amy's been looking for the suitcase too. You think she found it?"
"Even if she has, we can always steal it from her. It's whoever reaches the dock first, not whoever finds it first. Besides you're still a great person Sammy, no matter what." Trent told her.
Sammy smiled and the two kissed with the suitcase hanging over them. Then they continued walking. "Still, I hope Amy doesn't win. If only so she can't lord it over me."
Chris and Chef are shown riding in the red helicopter from previous episodes. Neither can believe two groups of teens just walked under the very obvious suitcase. "Okay this is ridiculous."
/
Geoff, Kitty, and Duncan are just outside a cave. "Dude, that'd be rad to explore." Geoff said.
"Yes! but I don't know if we have time." Kitty replied.
"Focus guys we're trying to find the suitcase." Duncan said.
"How do we know the suitcase isn't in there?" Geoff asked.
"Chris said it was hanging around. So it's probably up a tree or something." Kitty said.
(Confessional)
Kitty: I'm just so glad we're doing this together. Duncan's got the focus, Geoff's got the strength, and I've got the drive. I feel like we can do anything.
Static
The three headed away from the cave, almost immediately running into Crimson and Noah. "Hey guys!" Kitty greeted.
Noah smiled in spite himself. "Hey, where have you three looked?"
Duncan stopped Kitty before she could say anything. "We're not giving you that info."
Noah's smirk widened. "Worth a shot. Okay, We'll tell you where we've looked, if you tell us where you've looked."
"You trust me to give you that information?" Duncan asked.
"No, but Kitty and Geoff will." Noah replied.
"I think its a fair deal bro." Geoff chipped in.
"Okay, so we've looked at west edge of the island." The cynic told them.
"We've combed the beach." Kitty replied.
"Cool." Noah nodded. He and Crimson took their leave.
(Confessional)
Duncan: I guess that was helpful. Personally I'd have skip out on the deal.
Static
Max was heading up the island, while Scott trailed. "Hurry up sidekick!" He snapped.
"I'll show you a side kick." Scott muttered.
Meanwhile the nerds, and Tyler, have reached the tree with the suitcase hanging from it. Harold sees it first. "There's the suitcase!"
The others looked up. "Excellent observation skills Harold." Ellody complimented. Harold looked proud.
Chris and Chef are shown in the Helicopter again. "Finally!"
Tyler and Camron cheered. "We still need to get it down." Xena pointed out.
"As the most physically adept of us, I nominate Tyler to climb the tree." Ellody said.
"I second that!" Tyler agreed. climbing the tree. Leaves fell as he made his way up there. He ended up falling in front of them. "That was just a warm up!" The jock claimed.
As he climbed up the tree again, Xena commented. "Perhaps Tyler was not the best person to bring along for physical prowess."
"He's doing his best Xena." Ellody told her. Tyler fell from the tree again.
"His best seems to be inadequate." Xena deadpanned.
"I was this close!" Tyler claimed. He climbed the tree again and this time the suitcase came down. Camron attempted to catch it and ended up in the ground.
"We got it." Camron groaned.
From within a nearby bush Scott and Max spy the case. "Did you hear that Sidekick?!" Max exclaimed. "They have the case! We-" Scott covered the 'evil' genius' mouth.
"You're gonna alert them. How's about a sneaking mission?" Scott suggested. Removing his hand so Max could speak.
"That was my idea, I was just testing you." Max claimed. Scott rolled his eyes, but Max didn't notice as the two crawled off.
"Alright! We found the million!" Tyler cheered.
"Do not celebrate yet, we still have to bring it to the dock." Xena reminded him,
"Actually I find Tyler's enthusiasm refreshing." Ellody told her.
"So long as he keeps hold of that suitcase, I suppose I will tolerate it." Xena decided.
"You're gonna let me hold it?" Tyler questioned.
"You are the least likely to get fatigued from carrying it." The over logical girl said.
"He's so clumsy though." Harold pointed out.
"Hey, I can totally do this dude! Trust me." Tyler defended.
Harold sighed. "Normally I would argue with you and stuff, but I know what it's like to be underestimated."
"So are we all in agreement on who's holding the suitcase?" Ellody asked. Everyone said some version of yes.
"Thanks guys!" Tyler cheered.
/
Elsewhere in the woods Topher is looking around. He turns to find Gwen glaring at him. "What are you doing?"
"Looking for the suitcase obviously." The blonde said.
"But that contest is for the contestants." Gwen pointed out.
"Chris didn't say that. He said whoever makes it to the dock of shame with the suitcase first wins. I know enough about Chris to know if someone is smart enough to exploit a loophole he'll let them." Topher explained.
"Are you really gonna run around the island like an idiot looking for a suitcase?" Gwen frowned.
"Let me put it to you this way. If there's a chance to win a million, wouldn't you take it?" Topher asked. Gwen looked thoughtful.

Back with the nerds they have started to head out. "So what are you planning to do with your 200,000." Ellody asked.
"That's easy, I'm gonna spend it some of it on vintage comic books. You get them in mint condition, and they appreciate value ." Harold said.
"I'm going to use it for research equipment. If I create something good enough, I should get a scholarship easily." Ellody explained.
"I intend to use what I need for my collage fund, then save the rest for emergencies." Xena chipped in.
"I'm not sure. Maybe some books?" Camron said.
"Wait you guys know what you're gonna do you with the money?" Tyler said.
"Of course, any logical person would plan on what to do ahead of time." Xena said.
"I've been looking for a way to get money for a while." Ellody admitted.
"Money management is one of my mad skills. I went to Management Steve's Management camp." Harold said proudly.
"I feel a little weird not knowing what I want to do with it now." Tyler frowned.
"Don't worry, I have no idea either." Camron comforted him.
"Of course none of us will be able to use the money if we don't make it to the dock." Xena said.
At that moment Max fell out of a tree in front of them. Leaves flying everywhere. Startled, Tyler dropped the suitcase. Seizing his moment Scott grabbed the suitcase and ran off. Max seeing this gasped. "Sidekick! Get back here with my case!" He ran after Scott.
Xena sighed. "Tyler, when we retrieve the suitcase, you will not be carrying it."
Tyler frowned. "Fair."
/
Kitty, Duncan, and Geoff are shown running through the woods. "Okay, so are we sure it isn't back there?" Geoff asked.
"We already searched that entire area." Kitty sighed.
"We have a lot of island to cover so we'd better press on." Duncan agreed.
/
Scott is running up a cliff away from Max, who follows behind him gasping. "Sidekick I demand you hand the case over to me at once!" Max ordered.
"Finders keepers sucker!" Scott called back. At this point he had reached the top of the cliff.
Max confronted him. "I am not a generous man. Now give me the case or face my wrath!"
Scott scoffed. "What wrath? You're about as evil as a bunny."
"You mean the foul creatures laying waste to Australia's food supply?" Max grinned. "Flattery will get you nowhere. Now give me the case."
"Just try to get it." Scott smirked, jumping off the cliff behind him.
Max glared. "This isn't over!"
The scene faded to black.
/
A shot of the island is shown as Scott screams. He lands headfirst into a beaver dam. The case lands in the river. "Ugh!" Scott growls. The inside of the beaver's dam is shown. "You stupid vermin! I would have had a perfect escape if it wasn't for you!" One of the beavers slapped him with his tail.
The suitcase was shown floating down the river briefly, then the loudspeaker was shown as Chris made another announcement. "The case is wet! I repeat the case is wet!"
Dawn, Amy, and Ella are walking nearby when this announcement is made. "The case is wet! Quick into the river!" Amy ordered.
The three entered the river. "That was smart of you Amy." Ella smiled.
"Of course it was." Amy said.
Dawn smiled. "You're brushing it off in an attempt to hide how rarely you get complimented by someone whose opinion matters to you."
"Dawn! Cut it out with the creepy aura reading thing!" Amy snapped.
"I can't. It's as natural to me as breathing." Dawn explained.
"Well can you at least stop telling everyone about what you see in my aura?!" The older twin asked irately.
"If it bothers you that much..." The moonchild trailed.
"It does!" Amy said.
"Guys! I see the case!" Ella cheered pointing to the case as it floated by them in the water.
Amy snatched it up. "Well that was easy." A hook attached itself to the case and took it away. "My money!" Dawn gave her a look. "I mean our money." Amy corrected.
On the river's other bank Alejandro and Amber stand. The bookworm is pulling in the case on a fishing rod." I got it! It's heavy though."
"Allow me to assist." Alejandro smirked wrapping his arms around her to grab the fishing rod.
Amber blushed, but focused on the case. Together the two of them got the case to them. A crocodile popped out of the water, clearly intending to eat the case. "Am I seeing things or is that an alligator?" Amber gulped.
"I see it too. Why is there an alligator in Misoka?" Alejandro asked. The scene zoomed out to show Chris and Chef watching on a set of screens as they ate sandwiches.
"Alligators your idea?" Chris asked, turning to Chef. The cook nodded since his mouth was full. "Good one."
Back with Alejandro and Amber, Alejandro gives Amber a reassuring smile. "I'll take this." Alejandro told her. "Hello Mr. Alligator . What a devilishly handsome figure you have." The alligator bared its teeth. "And such well kept teeth, you must work hard to maintain them." The alligator smiled, in as much as an alligator can smile, and looked down. "No need to be modest, it's true. I'd like to humbly request you allow us to retain the suitcase. Such a thing is not worthy of your fierce some bite." The alligator nodded and swam back into the river.
"Your charisma still astounds me." Amber smiled, taking the suitcase off the fishing line. They started to walk off. "You know part of me is expecting you to betray me now that we have this."
"Chica were it anyone else, I assure you I would. I betrayed you by voting you out, and it was the first thing I've felt guilty about in years. I will not make that mistake again. You make me want to do right by you."
Amber kissed him. "I appreicate it. Now let's get this to the dock before anyone else does." The two of them run until they hear a rustling sound. "What is that?"
"Sha bam!" Lightning shouted as he dropped down on the two from the trees about. "And Lightning gets the case! Sha score!" He cheered as he ran past.
Anne Maria walked past spraying her hair. "Yeah Lightning baby. You show'em!"
Jo showed up next and she paused to gloat. "Wow braids, you and Al suck at this more than I thought. Well I gotta go, before Brightning loses the case doing something stupid."
Alejandro and Amber stood up with a groan. "So that's what it's like to get tackled in a football game. Can't recommend it." Amber remarked.
"No time for your astute observations now chica." Alejandro said. "They're going to get away with the money!"
"You're right. I need to take revenge on Lightning for knocking me down!" Amber said angrily.
Alejandro smiled. "I love when you get vindictive."
Behind a nearby tree Topher is watching the two run off with a frown.
(Confessional)
Topher: Alejandro was robbed last season. He should have been the last villain standing. Alejandro has amazing villain potential. He's just being held back by Amber. If Amber wasn't such a good influence on him, he could've been the villain I know he is. Not that he'll get the chance now.
Static
Gwen is walking along the river side. "I can't believe I'm doing this." She looks further up the river to see Scott with his head in the dam. She laughs. "That's just too good." She continues down the river.
(Confessional)
Gwen: Topher might have got to me. I guess I figure if I have to work as an intern I might as well try to win the money. I have nothing to lose. Even if I am breaking some rule, what's Chris gonna do? Fire me? I'd love to be fired.
Static
Gwen is running in one direction, the camera panned to show Geoff, Duncan, and Kitty running in the other. They're distracted enough to run into each other. "Ow! Watch it!" Gwen snapped.
"You watch it!" Duncan snapped back.
Gwen took a deep breath to calm herself and opened her eyes to see who she'd run into. "Duncan? Kitty? Geoff?"
"Dude how's she know our names?!" Geoff gasped.
"She's an intern, of course she knows our names." Kitty replied. She stood up and held her hand out to Gwen. "Sorry about running into you."
Gwen took her hand. "It was kinda my fault too."
"Are you looking for the suitcase too?" Duncan asked.
"Well, look its really stupid and a total long shot, but I gotta try right?" Gwen said.
"Totally. We're gonna look back up along the riverside. You wanna come?" Duncan offered.
"Already looked that way, but you could see something I didn't. Good luck." The goth said.
"You too." The delinquent agreed. Gwen walked off and the three continued up the bank to see Scott in the beaver's dam. A beaver had climbed on top of him and was currently beating him up with its tail.
"Isn't that Scott?" Kitty said.
"Dude that beaver is totally owning him!" Geoff exclaimed.
"Karma is awesome!" The selfie lover cheered.
"Is it bad that I kinda like watching him get beat up?" Geoff asked.
"No, I'm enjoying it too." Duncan smirked.
"Hey guys how about a little help here?' Scott said from indie the beaver dam.
"Normally I would, but you tried to curse my boyfriend with a totem so no." Kitty told him.
As the three walked off Scott yelled. "You'll regret this!"
/
Jo, Lightning, and Anne Maria are running around a bush. Jo trips Lightning and grabs the case. "You didn't think I was gonna share it with you? Yeah right! See you never losers!" Jo ran off, and right into an invisible wall, knocking her down and causing her to drop the case. Lightning and Anne Maria looked at each other and smirked, grabbing the suitcase and running back around the bush. Amber and Alejandro spot them and run after.
The camera panned back to Jo. A flock of pink birds flew around her head. "What?" Jo gasped staring at the glass before her. A camera was attached to this wall. Jo batted the birds away from her head, and they flew off, with one of them looking upset at the way it was dismissed. Jo stood up and knocked on the glass wall. "This forest is fake?!" She glared at the camera. "McLame that's a dirty trick!"
Like earlier the scene moved out to show Jo on screen yelling at the camera as Chris and Chef watched. "Wow, she looks really peeved." The host said as the two looked at each other, slightly nervous.
"When I get my hands on you-" Jo began from onscreen.
Chris used a remote to mute her. "Think I'll just turn this down a bit. That's better." He smiled. He held up a plate with some kind of meat on it. "More pâté?"
Chef regained his own smile. "Don't mind if I do."
/
Anne Maria and Lightning are running through the forest. "Ha! Nice try Jo! Thanks ta her we got the suitcase all to ourselves."
"Sha sweet! Lightning can almost taste the money!" The football jock said. He frowned. "What does money taste like?"
"Victory of course!" Anne Maria cheered.
They skid to a stop as Noah and Crimson entered the scene. "Great, nerd girl's here to try and snatch victory from Lightning!"
Noah glared. "Are you entirely brain dead? That's the only explanation for why you keep misgendering me! Either that or you're doing it on purpose! Can you at least call me by my name?"
"Fine nerd gir- Noa. Lightning's gonna assume you want his money." Lightning said.
Noah's glare became a smirk. "Who's money?"
"Lightning's money? Weren't you listening?" The football jock said.
"Don't you mean our money?!" Anne Maria frowned.
"Why should Lightning give anything to you? He's done all the work!" Lightning said.
"Oh no you did not just say I was useless!" The jersey reject said.
"You've spent more time on your stupid hair than you have looking for the case!" Lightning accused.
"That's it! No one insults the hair!" Anne Maria glared, launching herself at Lightning. The two began to fight, oddly enough they seemed to be evenly matched. In the tussle they drop the suitcase.
Noah walked forward and grabbed the case. He smirked as he returned to Crimson. "Like maggots to rotting flesh." The goth deadpanned. They walked away.
(Confessional)
Noah: Honestly human stupidity just keeps topping itself. Every time I think, 'this is it, this is as dumb as humanity can get', I'm proven wrong.
Static
Anne Maria sprayed Lightning in the face with her hairspray. "Ow! Lightning can't see!" The football jock cried out.
The sound of someone clearing their throat cause the two to pause in their fighting. The scene zoomed out to show Amber and Alejandro glaring at them. "Where did you idiots lose the case?" Amber asked, an eyebrow raised saltily.
"We didn't lose anything! The case is right-" Anne Maria reached to where Lightning had dropped the case, only to be met with thin air. "Here? It's gone!"
"Gone, but Lightning had it right here!" Lightning gasped.
"Well it seems to have slipped your grasp amigo." Alejandro smirked.
"Noah!" Anne Maria snapped. "That shrimp must have taken the suitcase while we were fightin'!"
"Aww man, Lightning doesn't want to lose to Noa and her girlfriend." The football jock said.
Anne Maria rolled her eyes.
"Well, then we'll just have to find Noah!" Amber decided.
"Do you have any idea which way he went?" Alejandro asked.
"Sorry hot stuff, I wasn't really paying attention." The jersey reject admitted.
"A lot of help you are." Amber said.
Chris' voice came over the loudspeaker. "Attention, campers! The case is now somewhere Creepy and headed towards camp."
"Come on Lightning!" Anne Maria said dragging the football jock up. "We gotta get the case back from that nerd!" The two ran off to the right.
"Why don't we go the opposite direction?" Alejandro suggested.
"Sounds like a safe bet. " Amber agreed.
/
Trent and Sammy are on top of the cliff from episode one. "Somewhere creepy and headed for camp? Maybe Amy has it." Trent chuckled.
Sammy laughed. "I hope not. She already has a big ego. She doesn't need a million dollars to make that bigger."
"It's nice to see you've relaxed a bit." Trent smiled.
"Yeah... you make it easier to laugh. I hope when we go home i hope I can find some more people to support me." Sammy sighed.
"Hey, you'll find them. You know you could look online. Maybe set up a chatroom where you could talk to the friends you've made here." Trent said.
"I'd like that." Sammy smiled. "Where do you think the case is?"
"If I had to guess? Somewhere in the woods. Which doesn't narrow it down much." Trent admitted.
"Let's get looking then!" Sammy said.
/
Back with Jo she has found a vine and tied it to the camera at the top of the glass wall. Chris and Chef was shown watching this in concern. Chris does a spit take. "Chef, you better get out there!"
The cook ran to the red ATV Chris often used and drove off. A wall with a brick trim is shown as Jo's hand climb over it. She pulls herself up. "No way!" She yells as the camera zooms out to show a burger sign attached at a speaker box. "We've been this close to good food this whole time?!"
A red truck pulls up with a large black man wearing a red hat and red and white jacket inside. "May I take your order?" The man opens his mouth to tell the worker but its cut off by Jo. He seems annoyed.
"Yes! You can take my order! I'm haven't had a good burger in hours!" Jo said. She was hit by a boom mike from above. "Hey!" The camera zooms out to show a camera crew member in a hot air balloon. He is a white brunette who has on an orange cap, and a white shirt with green collar and cuffs. Jo grabs the boom mike. "Get down here!"
The cameraman talks to Chris through a walkie talkie. "Uh, Chris? Uh, we have a situation here."
Back in front of the screen Chris is watching with wide eyes. He yells through the walkie talkie. "Bail, Bail," The cameraman is shown jumping out of the hot air balloon. "Abort Abort!"
Jo climbs in the balloon and pulls the cord. "See you later suckers! There's no stopping me now!"
/
Scott is walking along the bank finally away from the beavers. His face is bruised from the beating he took. Max arrives in a canoe. "Ran into some beavers? Serves you right for betraying me like that!"
"Is there something you want?" Scott glared.
"Yes! I thought about it, and your betrayal is a good sign of evil! So I am here to give you the opportunity to be my sidekick again!" Max declared.
"Are you kidding me?" the deviant said, sounding like that was the last thing he wanted to do.
"It's a generous offer I know. Serving me is an honor few receive." The 'evil' man said smugly.
"I would rather work alone." Scott snapped.
"I understand. You do not believe you deserve a second chance." Max said, completely misinterpreting Scott's words. "But you have potential to be evil. Not as evil as me of course, but who is?"
Scott smirked. "Okay then. I suppose I could take you up on that offer. If you agree to split the money with me."
"Extortion? I have taught you well." Max said sounding impressed. "Very well then sidekick. I will allow you to keep some of the money."
Scott got into the canoe. Max handed him the oar. "Now, move it sidekick! Faster!"
Scott started to row. "Don't make me regret this."
/
Noah and Crimson are shown standing with suitcase. "Hey! Noah found our suitcase!" Tyler said. The scene zoomed out to show the group of five nerds, and Tyler, in front of them.
"Your suitcase? I seem to be the one holding it." Noah smirked.
"We found it first!" Tyler said.
"Chris didn't say the money went to the person who found it first. He said it went to the person who brought it to the dock first." Crimson deadpanned.
"She is technically correct." Ellody admitted.
"Well, we could split it?" Camron said
"We're already splitting it five ways!" Harold complained.
"Noah is a reasonable person. I say we make an attempt to parley." Xena agreed with Camron.
Noah rolled his eyes. "Gee split the money with six people or just my girlfriend. Such a hard decision to make."
"So that would be a no?" Ellody questioned.
"You catch on fast." Noah replied. The scene zoomed out to show the two groups in full.
"Fine give us the case or we'll mess you up!" Tyler threatened.
"You'll trip before you get there." Noah smirked.
"Strength in numbers! We can overwhelm him!" Camron gasped.
The four nerds, and Tyler, rushed Noah, and while they were weak individually, together they were more than a match for Noah. Even with Crimson's help. They took the case and we see Crimson starting to help Noah up as they run off. Tyler has snatched the case. The camera follows them, revealing that this confrontation has happened, once again, at the top of the 1,000 foot cliff. The nerds, and Tyler, stop to avoid going over the cliff.
"In retrospect we ought to have seen this coming." Xena deadpanned.
They turned to run back only for a grizzly bear to growl at them. "What do we do!" Camron panicked.
"Make no sudden move-" Ellody began, but she was cut off by Tyler screaming and running away from the bear, leading to him falling off the cliff. Tyler grabbed the nearest thing, which happened to be Camron, then Camron grabbed Ellody, Ellody grabbed Harold, Harold grabbed Xena and Xena grabbed onto the cliff.
"HELP!" Camron cried out as the scene faded to black.
/
The nerds, and Tyler, are still holding on to the cliff. "What do we do?!" Camron gasped.
"Remain calm." Xena deadpanned, still looking emotionless.
"Stay calm?! We're hanging for our lives on top of a cliff!" Tyler protested.
Xena did not reply but rather attempted to pull herself up so as to gain a better grip on the cliff. The piece of cliff broke off and everyone, save Xena, screamed. The Camrea followed them as they fell until they landed off screen with a groan. The hot air balloon Jo had stolen earlier floated on screen to reveal Tyler's leg had been wrapped up by the boom mike's cord. Everyone else held on to each other desperately.
"Can we panic now?!" Tyler cried.
"Jo would you use your great upper body strength to pull us up?" Ellody asked.
"Only if you nerds give me the case!" Jo said.
"No way!" Tyler responded.
"Whatever." The jockette shrugged.
"Jo a fall from this height would kill us!" Camron cried.
"Yeah, and then I can get the money. What's your point?" Jo smirked. Whether she was bluffing or not was hard to tell.
"I think we should give her the money. It is not worth our lives." Xena told them.
"It would be an honorable death." Harold said dramatically.
"No, don't make any deals, I can save us!" Tyler said. Dramatic music played as the jock reached up and grabbed his ankle then he climbed the boom mike to the basket of the balloon and grabbed onto a rope attached to it.
"Tyler, that was an amazing display of upper body strength and grip. Perhaps I misjudged you." Xena deadpanned.
"And now we can keep the case!" Tyler cheered.
"We'll see about that." Jo smirked. She pulled down on the balloon cord making the balloon lower until the nerds, and Tyler, were being dragged through the forest below. The boom mike's cord somehow wrapped around the foot of the grizzly bear from before. The nerds began to scream as it was shown the bear was now looking up at them and growling. It began to climb the rope.
/
Sammy and Trent are looking in the forest themselves, "Well no sign of the case so far." Sammy sighed.
"Hey even if we don't find it, doing this hunt with you has been fun." Trent told her.
Sammy smiled and gasped as she saw a small moose attempting to eat the leaves from a tree, having trouble due to it's size. "Look at that moose! It's so cute."
Trent smiled "Having trouble little guy?" He said gently and moved to lower the branch so the moose could eat it. Unfortunately for him he tripped on a rock as he approached the moose sending the two of them flying. They landed with Trent on top of the moose. The baby cried out as the shot zoomed out to show it's parent. "Uh, this looks worse than it is." The guitarist said smiling weakly. The moose snorted angrily.
(Confessional)
Trent: So sometimes I can be a bit accident prone. Like that time I got stuck in quick sand during the boney island challenge. I'm just glad I'm the one who tripped and not Sammy.
Static
Sammy and Trent are seen running away from the moose as they scream loudly.
/
The loudspeaker is shown as Chris talked through it. "The case is almost at the campgrounds! Get your butts in gear, people! It's a million big ones!"
Kitty, Geoff, and Duncan are shown running through the forest. "Dudes we gotta hurry!"
"I wish there was a way we could get to the campgrounds quicker." Kitty sighed.
Chef drove up to the three on the red ATV. "Hey! Any of you punks seen a hot air balloon go by? Jo took it from one of our cameramen."
"That doesn't surprise me." Kitty said.
"She's totally gonna win!" Geoff said. As the two responded Duncan snuck his way around Chef.
"She got the case too. On her way to the finish line." Chef said, Duncan's hand was shown picking up a stick. "If I had to bet on anyone, I'd put my– oof!" Duncan slammed the stick into Chef's head.
He climbed on to the red ATV, looking at a shocked Kitty and Geoff expectantly. "Well get on!"
/
Topher is walking through the woods when he smirks running faster. The camera follows him as he catches up to Gwen. "So, any luck?"
"With the stupid case? No. Honestly I'm considering giving up." Gwen told him.
"But we know it's headed for the campgrounds. We should head that way." Topher told her.
"You sound awfully excited to go there." Gwen said with a raised brow.
Topher chuckled. "Let's just say a couple campers might drop in."
Before Gwen could ask what he meant by that, Sammy and Trent ran by. "Run!"
"Why?" Gwen called. The two interns looked back and gasped and they too ran off, a rampaging moose after them.
/
The balloon has arrived at the campgrounds with the nerds, and Tyler, trying to get in Jo's balloon as an angry bear climbed after them. Everyone was in except Tyler who was slowly being pulled up. "Hurry guys!" Tyler cried. The bear slashed the air with it's claws as Tyler was finally pulled in just barely missing.
Jo immediately got Camron in a headlock. "Now give me the case or else!"
"That is a rather vague threat. I require an elaboration." Xena said.
"Okay, give me the case or I'll choke out string bean. That elaborate enough for ya?" Jo snapped.
"Indeed." Xena nodded.
"Try to take that case and I'll mess you up!" Tyler threatened.
"Guys maybe we should spilt-" Camron began.
"No!" Jo and Tyler snapped.
The camera moved down show Scott and Max in the canoe from earlier. "There it is! Faster sidekick, we must get it!" They stepped on to the beach and ran up the stairs. Just then Duncan, Kitty, and Geoff come roaring out of the forest on the ATV.
"Hey Scott! Hey hello to my little friend!" Duncan called.
"Dude this might be going a bit too far!" Geoff said.
"Bail!" Kitty said. The two of them jumped off the red ATV. Duncan gunned it towards Scott. The ginger screamed as Max jumped out of the way. Duncan ran Scott into the water, but managed to break before the ATV fell in itself. He got off.
Kitty, concerned about Scott, ran over to the water. "Sorry, that was too far! Let me help you up!" She reached down to Scott, who took her hand... and pulled her into the lake.
"Now we're even." Scott smirked.
The loudspeaker is shown as Chris speaks. "Attention campers! The case is still in play! Don't give up now!"
/
Anne Maria and Lightning are behind the communal bathrooms. "Remind Lightning why we're hiding out again?"
"'Cause, we're gonna ambush that scrawny shrimp Noah and get our money back." Anne Maria told him.
"What do you mean our money?" Lightning frowned.
"Hey! I came up with the plan ta get the suitcase back, so I get some of the money!" Anne Maria snapped.
"Sha please Lightning coulda come up with that plan." The football jock said.
"But ya didn't!" Anne Maria said. She sighed. "We'll work out the details later. For now focus on getting that case!"
(Confessional)
Lightning: Lightning doesn't know where Anne Maria thinks she gets off asking for some of the money. I mean I've done all the hard work. Lightning is carrying the team.
Static
Anne Maria: Ugh. I've had it up ta here with Lightning. He thinks he's so great with his strong muscles, but who's got the brains? That's right me! He'd be nowhere near the suitcase without me!"
Static
Anne Maria and Lightning peeked their heads around the communal bathroom. Sammy, Trent, Gwen, and Topher run by with a moose after them. "Maybe we should just wait here." Anne Maria said.
"There's the pool ladder!" Gwen said, pointing. The scene zoomed out to show the four teens approaching the pool ladder with the moose in hot pursuit. It zoomed back in to show Sammy and Trent climbing up first, followed by Topher and Gwen. The moose ran past. The camera focused on Sammy as she paused. "Trent, if we don't make it I just wanna say I love you!"
"I love you too!" Trent agreed.
"That's really sweet, but I need to get up the ladder before the moose maims me!" Topher snapped.
"Enough with the lovefest already! Hurry up!" Gwen agreed.
Trent and Sammy kept climbing. Below Duncan was looking up at them in interest. "Hey Pasty, what are you doing up there?!"
They pointed and the camera followed to show the moose looking at Duncan angrily. It snorted it's nostrils. "Oh no." Duncan said, his eyes wide. He screamed as he ran from the moose. The camera showed all of the groups watching. Topher, Gwen, Trent, and Sammy atop the pool ladder. Camron, Xena, Harold, Ellody, Tyler and Jo in the balloon, and the grizzly bear hanging off the balloon. When the shot returned to the ground it was showing the mess hall. The moose chased Duncan in, then ran out as Duncan held the moose head from the mess hall in front of him, mimicking the call of a moose as he chased it.
On top of the pool ladder Gwen smirked. "Well that's one way to get rid of a moose."
"I'll be back!" Duncan called as he ran off.
Sammy pointed into the sky with a gasp. The scene zoomed out to reveal the balloon was about to crash into the pool ladder. "It's coming!"
In the balloon basket Camron gasped. "With our current trajectory we're going to crash into the pool ladder!"
"Dude I could have told you that!" Tyler exclaimed.
The bear grabbed on to the side of the basket causing Camron, Tyler, Harold, and Ellody to panic.
"We have to jump for it!" Tyler said.
"Do you know how dangerous that is! Our odds of survival-" Ellody began.
"Are higher than if we remain here." Xena deadpanned.
"She's right, it's our best chance!" Harold agreed. "Grab hands, with luck that'll slow our fall due to the air resistance."
They grabbed hands and jumped landing at the top of the pool ladder, on the opposite side of the first group. The pool ladder sways dangerously but ultimately remained standing. From inside the balloon Jo glared. "If you think you're keeping the case that easily, you have another thing coming!" The jockette jumped out of the balloon. She landed in between the two groups and snatched the case from Tyler while he was still in shock. Immediately everyone began to fight over the case. In the ensuing struggle caused it to fall from the top of the pool ladder. The camera followed the case as it fell, where it bounced off the pool and landed in front of the communal bathrooms. Amy, Dawn, and Ella exited. "Has anyone seen that stupid case!"
"Amy! It's right there!" Ella cheered pointing at the case.
Amy picked the case up. "My money!" Dawn gave her a look. "Sorry, our money."
The sound of a plane was heard and Amy looked up in confusion. The yellow plane Chris had flown in at the beginning of the extreme sports episode was flying in the sky. The door opened to reveal Amber and Alejandro, both wearing helmets and both with parachutes on their backs.
From Chris and Chef were watching the host frowned. "How the heck did they get the keys to the plane?"
The cook looked just as confused. "I don't know."
(confessional)
Amber: So Alejandro and I are looking for the case when this blonde intern with hair from the 1950s walks up to us and offers Alejandro the plane keys! I'm suspicious of course but Alejandro sees an opportunity. The next thing I know we're flying a plane dangerously low without a pilot, and I'm about to jump out!
Static
"This is so stupid!" Amber cried.
"Have faith chica!" Alejandro said. With that they both jumped off. One confident and one screaming. The plane, no longer having a pilot crashes into the pool ladder, breaking the barely balancing board at the top from the ladder. It could fall at any moment.
Alejandro landed in front of Amy and tried to grab the case. The older twin is not having it. The two begin to tussle. Noah and Crimson arrive on the scene. The case comes loose in the tussle and Noah takes the opportunity to grab the case, only to be ambushed by Lightning and Anne Maria. The case flies out of his hands.
"Give us the case Noa!" Lightning said.
"I don't have anymore you morons!" Noah snapped. The case landed in a nearby Geoff's arms.
"Sweet! We're gonna be rich Kitty!" Geoff cried running off, but before he could get far he tripped.
Amber, Alejandro, Amy, Ella, and Crimson all saw the case was free and began to run towards it. Amber's still attached parachute wrapped around Noah's ankle dragging the cynic with her.
A top the pool ladder the board finally lost its staying power and fell. Tyler, Xena, Camron, and Jo all fall into the pool below as Duncan came by riding on the moose. The remaining six are still on the board as it slides down the side of the pool out of control.
The moose rides past Alejandro, Amber, and Noah, one it's antlers catching on to the couple's parachutes and dragging all three along for the ride. The case rolled across the dock as the moose bucked Duncan off. Behind him, the board containing Trent, Sammy, Gwen, Topher, Ellody, and Harold slides down the dock, dragging Amber, Alejandro, and Noah by the parachutes.
As the board moves forward, we see that Crimson, Amy, Ella, and Geoff are running after the case still. Kitty is helping Scott get out of the water. Tyler's eyes widened as the board knocked everyone into the water, Alejandro, Amber, and Noah all dragged in after. In all sixteen people enter the water. Chris and Chef are briefly shown wincing at the sight. In the water, Amy surfaces, looking for the case. The case is shown floating in the water nearby before being eaten by a shark. A nearby seagull with a soda ring on it's neck laughs before it to, is eaten by the shark.
"Great. Now what?" Noah groaned.
Chef lands the helicopter on the dock and Chris exits. The host walks forward. "So you lost the case. Way to go." He said sarcastically. "I didn't wanna have to do this, but since none of the sixteen of you officially won, you all officially tied, which means that you will all have another shot at winning the million dollars!" Everyone cheered. " In season two!"
(Confessional)
Amy: Excuse me? Season two?!
Static
Noah: Oh, no I am not going through this again.
Static
Alejandro: Intriguing.

Duncan complained. "Oh, forget this. I didn't agree to season two."
"Sixteen?! Topher and I are interns! You can't just make us new contestants!" Gwen added.
"Actually, I can, and yes Duncan you did agree to season two. It's called the fine print. Read it, live it, love it!" Chris said.
"I hate the fine print!" Gwen yelled.
The Scene moved out to show the remaining eight teens on the dock. These were Max, Anne Maria, Lightning, Xena, Camron, Tyler, Dawn, and Jo. Chris turned to them. "As for the rest of you, your treasure hunt ends here, along with all your hopes of ever winning any money off of being on this show." Anne Maria and Lightning are shown looking angry. "The good news, though? You'll be watching all the action on season two from the sidelines!"
"Excuse me?! You don't get to sideline me!" Jo growled.
Chris tsked and waved his finger back and forth. "Fine print."
(confessional)
Jo: Brightning's lawsuit might have failed, but that doesn't mean I can't try suing! No one sidelines me!
Static
Harold: Another season? Sweet! Another chance to showcase my mad skills!
Static
Gwen: This sucks. I guess I get a shot at the money though.
Static
Amber: You know, I'm kinda excited. Alejandro and I can work together this time! It'll be a great bonding experience.
Static
Topher: Season two! I'm gonna be on season two. The world of Total Drama won't know what hit it! You know if Amber's a good influence on Alejandro. I can be a bad influence! I have the chance to make him into the villain I know he is! May the better person win.

Sammy smiled. "It's not all bad. We get to stay together longer."
Trent smiled back. "Yeah. That's pretty cool."
Chris was shown in close up as he closed out the episode. "In exactly two days, you'll all report to a brand new location for a whole new challenge and the last one standing will receive one. Million. Dollars! So don't forget to tune in…" He pulled out a clapboard ans raised the clapstick. "to Total. Drama. Action!" He lowered the clapstick on the last word.
A/N: Finally! It took me so long to get this out. Long story short, I totally forgot this special was over two times a normal episode. With all my other projects, carving out enough time to write that much took awhile but I managed. You may wonder how I'm going to fit sixteen characters into Action. Simple. There's no Izzy to return on a techinicality, and I'm combineing the mole plot with the return of a contestant in Ocean's Eight or Nine.
Kitty got to keep 50,000 for her sister, because I couldn't see her giving that up when she knows how important it is to Emma. Technically in the countries Gwen wins there's some stupid line about how the contract says they can take back the money at any time, but that is such a cop out.
You may be wondering why I'm adding two new characters to action when that wasn't in the original. There are a couple First off, I have no plans to write anything beyond world tour and I wanted to get a few more characters in. And second, it will make Action a bit more interesting.
Before you ask yes I did randomize the returning characters. I was so lucky! Gwen is one of my favorites and exploring her relationship with Duncan if Courtney wasn't there is gonna be fun. As for Topher. I've always had the idea that if I wrote him earlier in the series timeline he'd be a deliberate drama causer, rather than wanting to take over the show. This is because Chris' isn't quite a washed up has been yet.
I'll admit a lot of the character interactions in this chapter were super fun to write. Anne Maria and Lightning, as well as Scott and Max, were so fun. Guess poor Max can't help but end up with sidekicks that are gingers more evil than him.
Some plotlines for the next season have been set up here. Can you guess which ones?
The first chapter of Total Reordered Action should be out on April 30th.
