Total Drama Retrospective Interviews: A decade-ish later

by VeryUnknown

The network that ran Total Drama wanted to do something to celebrate the annual-ish anniversary of the show. Josh was called in to interview the 24 contestants from the first generation, 13 from the second, and 14 from the third generation to get the tea on their relationships with one another from their time on the show, and since the show, while catching up with the cast.

37. Tyler

Josh was waiting around, exhausted but excited, "So it seems like we're finally finishing the first generation, since it seems like Ezekiel doesn't want to be contacted. Tyler shouldn't be very long, and the other generations don't have as much to go on, so I THINK the hard stuff is behind us."

The production crew started clapping in agreement, when a muscular and toned man, with silky smooth hair entered the room, "Hey everyone. What a nice greeting to have. It feel snice to be back here after over a decade. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Uh... sure, that's why we were clapping. Come sit down," Josh hurried, as Tyler sat in front of him, "So I am going to go through everyone that you competed with alphabetically, I will hand you a picture, and you will describe your opinions on them while doing the show, and since the show. Alejandro is first, and apparently you were the only person to keep contact after the show. Why were you so drawn to him, even after he flirted with Lindsay, and sandbagged you for Duncan?"

All Tyler did was sigh, and his arms noticeably became more tense, "I did find it weird that he was being so friendly to Lindsay, but I felt like it was her pursuing it more, since she was still mad at me about stuff that happened outside of the show. It bothered me, but it really wasn't him who I was bothered by. A few days later, he told me that he has no interest in Lindsay, and told her to stop speaking to him, so I warmed up to him. Noah and I never had the best relationship through the show, and I was never close with Owen or Izzy, so I just ended up hanging out with him. Something about how he carried himself interested me, and he talked about his experience with sports. After the fashion challenge, he talked to me about fashion, and how I could improve my wardrobe, so we did have a lot of bonding moments. There were some times where he would get very angry, mutter something in spanish, or get really weird, so his mask was slipping to everyone pretty quickly. The biggest example of him slipping was where he told me accidentally that he liked Heather, and then started telling me stuff about his family. Once he accidentally slipped with that, he later on started using it to manipulate me. We had a lot of great times on the plane."

Josh wanted to stir things up, "So, were you hurt when he betrayed you for Duncan of all people? You thought that he was your best friend, but he tossed you out like nothing. How did you react to that, and how did you feel about seeing him on the yacht? He decided to choose you to be a volunteer for him in the finale, but you were unable to do so."

"Like I said before, he had a dark aura to him from the beginning, but it became more clear as the season went on. What he did to DJ made me very uncomfortable, and I am not about sabotaging people. He started rambling more and more about these plans that he had, and he wanted me to join. There was the whole cheating thing that he forced me to out, and I was mad at him for putting me in that position. We got into an argument behind the scenes about him wanting me to cheat on Lindsay, and flirt with Courtney. I didn't want to do it, but I didn't think that it would cause him to vote me out. I wasn't upset, but I was mainly disappointed with him, since I knew how much he hated Duncan, and how Duncan was rigged into the season. We didn't speak for-say, but I did message him about his injuries, and told him that he didn't deserve that. He wrote back to me, thanking me for being one of the 2 people who actually checked on him, and wished him luck. When we got to the yacht, everyone started coming for him. Like, picking arguments with him several times, physically attacking him, and it was just horrible to watch. The two of us hung out A LOT during this time, and he was... vulnerable. It was nice, but creepy to watch. He told me EVERYTHING about Heather, his family, and all of his regrets. We haven't kept in touch after that, but we have some great moments on that boat, and he isn't as bad as people make him out to be."

He decided to hand Tyler a picture of his wife's friend, "So you and Beth never spent much time together in the competition, and she competed in Season 2, while you competed in Season 3. She is still Lindsay's friend, so you two must have interacted a lot through the years. What are your thoughts on her?"

He signed, once the picture of Beth was handed to him, "We did not speak a lot throughout the years. I remember her covering for Lindsay and I when the two of us would sneak off in the first season, so when Beth was eliminated, I did thank her for helping us get together. When we were in Playa, neither one of us spent much time together, and for the next two seasons, we never got the time to know one another. I didn't deal with her until after the show, where Lindsay and I got together. The two of us had a lot of relationship issues, and I asked Beth for some advice on how to handle situations. Beth took this opportunity to make things worse for us, as she started to twist a bunch of information, and told Justin about it, who didn't have the best relationship with Lindsay. I called Beth out on it, and what resulted was a nasty argument. She said that she would stay out of our relationship, and will refuse to speak on it ever again. We haven't spoken since, and that was about 5-ish years ago. Lindsay didn't want to choose between either of us, so Beth and I agreed to keep our distance."

"Interesting indeed," Josh muttered, as he prepared to hand Tyler the next picture. "Apparently people thought that you and Bridgette had a slight attraction to one another, that turned into a big misunderstanding in the first season. What is your thought on this?"

All he could do was laugh, "Here is what happened. The two of us are the clumsiest people on the island, so we would fall, and the other would end up catching the person who fell. We had some great conversations about sports, being vegan, and a bunch of that stuff, but people took it the wrong way. Lindsay was verbally angry about this, since I guess she saw Bridgette as some sort of competition, which wasn't even the case. She's a pretty girl, but I was never attracted to Bridgette like that. And I noticed Geoff was getting annoyed with me too. Bridgette stopped speaking to me after the talent show, and there was some tension with me and the other Bass guys, where she threw me under the bus, and made things worse. I did not appreciate her and Geoff making fun of me when I was eliminated, especially when they didn't complete their fears either, and I laughed at them both when Duncan turned on them later on in the season. Bridgette came to me and apologized for everything when we were in the Aftermath hotels, and we became close again. I started telling her about the action reality shows I wanted to do, and she told me that she and Geoff were getting opportunities to join them. Geoff said no, so she asked me to do it. I said yes, and then she dropped out, so Leshawna came on board to do a bunch with me. We had some fun with our partners once we were booted from season 3, but there was a fallout, since I was defending Alejandro after everyone attacked him, and she told me that anyone who defends that sociopath deserves to rot, and told me to fuck off. I haven't spoken to her since, and I was really offended with how she treated me."

The host went to hand him a picture of a guy he spent a lot of time with, "So you and Cody were early boots in Season 1, did not compete in Season 2, and were both on Season 3, where you both lasted quite a bit. What was your interactions with him like?"

"So when we were in the first season, we did not get a chance to hang out like that much, but he did seem cool from the little that we did hang out. It wasn't until we were at Playa where we started getting pretty close. He wanted me to help him work out, and I wanted to know more about his tech skills, so we would get up every morning to go on a walk, and to lift some weights to bond with one another. Cody had a thing with Beth at this time, so when Lindsay arrived, the four of us would go on double dates. We had some good times, and continued to be good friends while sitting out of Season 2. I was losing my mind with seeing Lindsay and Justin hanging around and fooling around, and I went to him for advice. Cody was trying to pursue Gwen, since she just became single, and I told him that he should wait a bit before doing so. We hung out a lot behind the scenes during "World Tour", and the camera moment with Gwen is something I still cringe over. I remember before the season, he tried to force me to go on double dates with him, Katie, and Sadie, but I wasn't feeling it. While on the yacht, he got very mad at me for not wanting to bully Alejandro, and that was another friendship that I didn't maintain after the show. I called him an opportunist, since he was trying to stir stuff with not only Justin and I after "Action", but with Alejandro and I on the yacht as well, which he has done to several people as well. He's a "good guy" type, you know?"

"So Courtney is next, and it doesn't seem like the two of you had a great relationship with one another. She made it known from the VERY beginning that you sucked, when she tries to save her ass from being the first boot, claiming that it should be you."

Tyler groaned as a picture of Courtney was presented to him, "We... did not have a good relationship to say the least. I was telling people that she should be the first boot because not only was she bossy, but she couldn't jump down the challenge. She just seemed to be all talk, so I wasn't shocked when she tried to get everyone to vote me out. Out of the Killer Bass members, she was one of the few who really harassed me, and would literally wake up in the middle of the night to catch me sneaking in and out of the cabin to see Lindsay. I felt really emasculated with how she made fun of me, and belittled me throughout my time on the show, and she got some of the others to torture me too. I think a lot of it had to do with her being VERY jealous of Lindsay, even in the first season. When we sat out of the second season, she would mention how Lindsay was fooling around with Justin, and how she forgot about me already, but I just threw it in her face that Duncan forgot about her, but getting with Gwen. She shut up, but she would continue doing this stuff to piss me off in the third season, though we didn't speak until Lindsay got sent home. I was completely turned off with Courtney trying to get me to cheat, and then it all made sense. I think she had this weird attraction to me, and also wanted to stick it to Lindsay. It was borderline sexual harassment."

Josh wanted to get through some names, "DJ is next. You two were on the Killer Bass together, and you also blamed him for Lindsay's eviction in Season 3. Did you ever care for him?"

"I became frustrated with DJ, since we actually got along a bit within the first few episodes, but there was some tension and drama that I was getting from Geoff and Duncan. With DJ claiming to be this "generous, good" person, he enabled a lot of the bullshit that people like Harold and I were receiving from the team. After I left, I heard about the stuff he did to people like Harold, and I was... horrified. Of course he got booted, and due to Geoff and Duncan hanging out with their girlfriends, he started hanging out with a bunch of us. So we were cool by the time of the special, and we worked out with one another throughout the next few years. It was annoying because he talked so much about wanting to quit, and how he felt bad about sinking his entire team, but refused to leave. When Lindsay left, I just snapped at him, and they didn't even show half of it. Now that I think about it, Alejandro made the entire situation worse between us, as he told me some things, and told DJ some other things. Overall, we are friendly acquaintances at-best now."

He moved on to hand a picture of Duncan, "So I was told throughout the interviews that he didn't just bully Harold with his henchmen, but Duncan bullied you too through the first season. What happened, and was that the reason why you didn't want to deal with him in the third season?"

Tyler got more visibly red and irritated, "He is a horrible person, truly. I remember him glaring at Lindsay and I as soon as we entered the cabin, and after he killed the bug for her. I overheard him say something about "guys like me getting everything, despite being less than mediocre". He would say things about me to others, which I would sometimes hear, or Harold would tell me, and discourage me before, during, and after every challenge, laughing the entire time. I would sneak out and back in the cabin every night to have some fun with Lindsay, and I caught him watch me go to sleep at times. I think it was after the dodgeball challenge, where he made fun of me, and I said that he's just jealous that I was in a relationship, and he had blue balls. He pranked and harassed me for the rest of the time I was in the show. When he was rigged back into the third season, I wanted nothing to do with him, and it was really just a coincidence that I saw him kiss Gwen. He somehow knew that I saw, and I think the producers told him. During my final episode, him and I got into a HUGE blowout that no one saw, and I made fun of him for not having DJ and Geoff fucking with him anymore, while also saying that he will do the same to Gwen. I remember Al trying to force us to hang out together, since we were the only two who didn't hate him at the time during the boat, and it just caused more issues."

"Okay so Eva is next. You two were both early boots on the first season, and were not on the second season. How was it like dealing with her?"

"Well, I admired Eva at first. To be stronger than all of the men, being into feminism as much as she is, and she didn't care what people thought of her. But... we did not get along at all throughout the season. When I was eliminated, I made an attempt to be on good terms with everyone, so I told Eva what all of the Killer Bass women were saying about her, and told her that she deserved better. I also got her to help train me over the two seasons, especially in "Action", but it did not turn out well, and she ended up throwing a HUGE tantrum. Like, throwing dumbbells at me, cursing me out with every other word, throwing weights at me, and she had to be held back from attacking me, since I felt like her routine was too vigorous. I also did not appreciate how she trashed Lindsay and I's relationship, and I remember her cheering Duncan on for how he handled the triangle mess in the third season, so I have no respect for her."

Josh looked very uninterested as he handed another picture to Tyler, "Ezekiel is the first boot of the season, and is someone you must have spent quite a bit of time with during the first two seasons. What was your experience with him overall?"

Tyler groaned when Ezekiel's picture was handed to him, "Yikes... I tried to give him chance after chance for him to redeem himself, and to actually grow into a better person from the experience, but he just never took it. When I was eliminated, he asked me why I was booted first, and I explained it all to him. It seemed like he was getting it, but he would revert back. He would continue asking me questions about how to improve himself, I gave it to him, and then he kind of spat on it. It got to the point where he told me by the end of the first season, that I didn't know anything, and how everyone made fun of me behind my back. We did not speak while sitting out of "Action", and things got even more tense, once he got this "gangsta" persona or whatever. He continued mocking me during that time, and I just lost it on him eventually, and things never recovered."

"So, it's been discussed that people thought you and Bridgette had some sort of connection, and I want to know if this... speculation affected your interactions with Geoff? What do you think of him in general?"

The blond man's picture was presented to the bodybuilder, and an emotionless reaction was on his face, "Geoff was a disappointing man, and is one of those people who truly lack character. He was fine helping Duncan do all of the horrible shit that was done to people like Harold, myself, and others, and claimed to be a "good loving guy", but I never saw that side of him while I was on the island, and when we were on the Aftermath hotels for "Action". He did not like Bridgette and I becoming friends during that time, and I believe he told her to not do any of those reality shows with me. I remember when that time was ending, I asked him why he hated me so much, and he said the same thing Duncan said; people like me get everything handed to me in life. So he was jealous. We did make up by the time I got eliminated from "World Tour", and we spent a lot of time together with Bridgette and Lindsay, especially after that season ended. The four of us had a lot of fun together, and they knew what to do with... hehehehehehe. But he again showed his ass the next year with the whole Al think on the yacht."

Josh rolled his eyes, "Of course they fucked the both of you. Anyways, you and Gwen were on opposite teams on your first season, and you were booted early. She was booted early in the second season, so you must have seen a lot of her at the hotel, and you both were booted within an episode of one another in season 3. What do you think of her overall?"

"We... didn't speak at all really. There was no time where I would have spoken to her during the first season, though I do not like the way she spoke to Lindsay. Cody and I were friends during the time of "Action", and he was one of the few who would hang out with her at that time, so we would hang out then, and it was a bit... weird. I didn't care about the Trent stuff, so I refused to talk about that, and trying to get to know her was so hard to do, since she's so closed off, and kind of judgmental. She was a brick wall, and I didn't speak to her at all really in the third season, though she did tell me after she got eliminated that she doesn't blame me for anything that happened, and to not take any of it to heart, so that was a relief. For some reason, Leshawna and Harold got us to go on a few group dates a few years later with Gwen and Trent, but it just didn't work out."

"Alright, we're going to move onto Harold."

A smile came on his face when a picture of Harold was given to him, "It's really funny, since we didn't get along at first. I did think he was the worst competitor out of everyone in the Killer Bass, and I would tell him that he needed to step it up. He just laughed at me the first few times, before blowing me off. It pissed me off, but we never got into an argument or anything. After I was harassed by the Killer Bass team, he cheered me up, and got through a really bad moment of mines on that specific season. We got really close after that, and would defend one another when the horrid 3 would try their bullshit. He was shocked that I played a bunch of video games, and had a Yu-Gi-Oh card collection at my house, so we got close over that dorky stuff. We were close for the rest of the season, but obviously I didn't have any time to hang out with him in the second season. Of course there was the mess with Leshawna, though he was initially fine with us doing the shows together. Before she and I even did anything, he started sending me these weird text messages, and they were almost threats. We were able to get on a good place before he was eliminated off the plane, so I am glad for that, and we did hang out a bit once I was booted too. There was some tension again on the yacht, due to me not jumping on the "hate Al" bandwagon, and we did argue for a bit then, but once Al was out of my life for good, we became good friends, but not best friends again. I helped him somewhat with his appearance, and talk once or twice a year."

Josh saw the nerves on his face while getting the next picture, "So Heather was very clearly not impressed with your relationship with Lindsay, to the point where she threw a canoe on you. What did you think of her, and did you interact with her at all during the third season?"

"She was awful from the beginning to end. I honestly think she was jealous because Lindsay found someone so easily, and no one was interested in hooking up or getting into a relationship with her. After what you saw on the early episodes, I didn't have to deal with her... until she was eliminated from "Action". Heather claimed she was genuinely doing the right thing with her motivations of telling me about Lindsay and Justin. I told her to leave me alone, since she kept on harassing me about it, and I blew up at her. We didn't speak at all during Season 3, since she remembered when I told her to never speak to me again after that situation. There was a situation on the yacht, where Lindsay and I were having some issues, so Heather used it as an opportunity to cause some drama, so she CONVENIENTLY remembered that Alejandro told her that Lindsay tried to assault him, which he didn't even confirm when I asked him about it. Lindsay and I both yelled at her."

"Wow, was Heather obsessed," Josh commented.

Tyler raised his hand as he spoke, "That wasn't even the worst of it. Apparently Heather and Alejandro, mainly Heather told Lindsay about stuff I supposedly said to Al on the yacht, and she told Lindsay this when the three of them were on "All-Stars". Of course it was a bunch of lies, and it caused the four of us to go at it PRETTY HARD during the premiere for that season. Horrid."

All he did was shake your head, "I could see how that would ruin any sort of truce or peace you had with Al. So I am going to move onto Izzy, who I don't remember if you ever spoke to throughout the show."

"Because we never really did interact. She really liked Lindsay and I as a couple, and she would mention it, but she found us amusing, and I didn't know if this was a good thing or not. It got to the point where she would follow us, when we would try to hang out and... do what couples do, which made me uncomfortable. She then started laughing at me a lot from the "TDI" special, and it just made me feel weird. Due to her being friends with Eva, who I did not get along with, we did not gel throughout the "Action" aftermaths. Being on the Team Chris team with her was a mess, and she was a bit more calm, but she still saw me more as a joke and a punching bag, rather than a person. And then it was clear that she was involved with a bunch of drama that I didn't care for."

He wanted to get to the juiciness, and couldn't hide the smirk on his face, "So it's been discussed about Lindsay and Justin getting close during the second season, and people told you that she outright cheated on you. What do you think of Justin? I mean, you must hate him."

All he did was laugh, "Interesting to say the least. While we were on the show, I HATED Justin. Something about him just seemed so off and phony, and I didn't believe that he never spoke, so when I was eliminated, I tried to speak to him to get him to talk, but he wouldn't budge for a while. A part of me did admire his aura and physique, so I wanted his assistance. He blew me off, and did so quite rudely. Not only did he try to use Lindsay on the second season, but we would sometimes get live clips of stuff that they didn't air on the episodes, so I saw him say some flirty filthy things to both her and Beth, which did piss me off. He kind of badmouthed me in some of the clips that they sent to me, so when he was eliminated, we DID have words. I remember calling him a bitch, and nothing but a surgical creation because his mom wanted to pimp him out, and then he said something about being mad because my parents tried to pimp me out through several of their business, but I still ended up being a disowned flop. I tried to swing on him, and things got ugly. I don't know how it started, but we became cool. There definitely was quite a few arguments while we were on the yacht, since he didn't get why I hated him, but forgave Alejandro for all of the foul shit he did. I guess with time and distance from the show, and sometimes meeting with Beth, or Harold, Justin would be there, and we started joking around. He has a really silly and easygoing personality, so we kind of just vibed, and I remember one tiktok video of ours just started trending. We are planning to make a tiktok series of it. Justin's cool in my book."

"That is great... Katie and Sadie, what do you think of them? You were all early flops in the first season, and didn't compete in the second season. You must have some great, or not-so-great stories about each of them."

His face was unreadable for a while, "I didn't get Katie or Sadie while we were all in the game, and I found Katie trying to so much better than Sadie to be off-putting. You noticed it on the island that she would kiss up to the likes of Courtney, and Sadie would refuse to do so. I think people saw through it, which is why Katie was booted over Sadie. I did somewhat get to know Sadie in my last episode, and she seemed more transparent and honest. Katie and I didn't get along at first when I was eliminated, since she thought I was jealous of her being athletic or whatever, so there was a bit of tension. But then the two of us got closer, as she was dealing with a lot of trauma with being away from Sadie, and she told me the backstory of their mothers. We were cordial throughout "Action", but I noticed that they didn't care much for the situation with Justin and Lindsay, and was defending them to a point. I've probably seen them a handful of times since the show, but are social media friends at best."

Cackling noises came from the interviewer, as he handed Tyler a picture of Leshawna, "So you two barely spent any time together throughout the first two seasons, but then you suddenly ended up on a bunch of reality shows together, and slept together. Was it a full on romantic relationship? Spill ALL THE TEA. I totally get why Lindsay would feel a way."

Nervous chuckles came out of his mouth, "Bridgette offered me a few reality tv spots that she was offered, since she knew that I was depressed, and Geoff didn't want to participate. She dropped out, and told me that she could get Leshawna to do it, since Leshawna wanted to make enough money to move her family out of the projects. No one thought "Total Drama" would continue, and I wanted to make a name of myself, and prove something to not only my family, but to myself. We shockingly did well during the first show, and kept things going. I never really got to see Leshawna's compassion for myself until we were stuck in hotel rooms, hospital after hospital due to me injuring myself, and just being a leader. I had to hear her rant about the drama Harold put her through, and we ended up consoling one another. One thing lead to another,... one sex romp lead to another, and... one scare ended it all."

"BITCH!," Josh screamed, right when he was in the middle of a drink, and was choking from what went down. "WHAT SCARE? WAS SHE PREGNANT?"

He instantly regretted bringing it up, "Yeah... there was a scare that she was pregnant, since she felt sick, and started throwing up quite a lot within a 2-3 day period. Turns out, it was just an infection. Everything became too much, and we agreed to end it once and for all. When we were on the third season, the four of us agreed to never mention it, and we didn't. She was mad that I kept on defending Alejandro when we were on the yacht, and it made things difficult while we were there. But I DID get a phone call a few days ago, as she said that after talking to you, she realized that I told Alejandro stuff about what we did, which is why he knew how to seduce her. None of it was my intention, and now I don't know where we stand."

A quizzical and suspicious look was sent Tyler's way, "I don't know if I believe that, but I'll leave it alone. We're saving Lindsay for last, so it's time to discuss Noah. You were both early outs on "Island", didn't compete in "Action", and were midseason boots in "World Tour", so you spent the entirety of the three seasons together. What was dealing with his moody ass like?"

"When I arrived, we did spend quite a bit of time together, but it was because he hated all of the others more. He confused me, since there were times where he would let his walls down around me, like telling me that he secretly wants friends, but then he would throw shade at, and humiliate me in front of others. So over the course of Playa des Losers, we fell out, and drifted away from one another. No one thought that there was going to be a second season, especially right away, so we actually had time to make up and clear the air when we sat out of "Action". I thought that he liked making me a punching bag in front of everyone, and he thought that I was going to abandon him for the cool guys, like Cody and others in his life did. It was a really good time, and I felt them cheering me up while watching Lindsay do... what she did on that season. Noah REALLY wanted to do a bunch of shows, and once I started getting offers, he got... mad about it, since he thought I was the most irrelevant one."

Josh was actually shocked, "Very interesting indeed. He framed it differently, but it's clear that there was tension between you two over this, and it makes sense with him getting more shows later on. How were things in "World Tour?" He mentioned that your support of Alejandro ruined your friendship with him forever."

A huge sigh came from his mouth, "Noah is VERY entitled. I didn't get why he was so furious with Sierra and Alejandro being a part of the cast, and to ME, it seemed like he knew that they would get a lot of attention, which means that he would get NO attention. He told me A LOT of NASTY, PERSONAL things about the both of them that he found out while interning for Chris, and it just made me gross. I did tell Alejandro some of it, and this was while Lindsay was still in the game. Noah could tell that I told him, and it caused the two of us to go at it HARDCORE. I called him a clout chaser, who just wants attention, and how he's STILL mad at me about the shows he didn't get. Him and I refused to deal with one another, unless it was about the challenges. When I got eliminated, he decided to taunt me, and then I told him that he didn't even care about Owen until recently, since it was his last grasp for relevancy. Some more of the yacht stuff happened that involved Alejandro, and I told people to stop jumping him, since I'm a good human being. He didn't like it when Eva and Izzy jumped him after his elimination, but was demanding everyone to continue jump Alejandro. I haven't spoken to Noah since, and I'm not shocked he turned on Owen once he got everything he wanted from Owen's popularity."

"About Owen... What was it like dealing with him? Was it as contentious as it was with Noah?"

"We didn't speak in the first season, and it wasn't until after he won, and we spent about a week or two getting to know one another. We started talking about all of the shows we wanted to do, all of the adventures we wanted to take, and we have a lot of similarities, with wanting to be liked and all of that. He told me that in the next opportunity he got, we would work together, so that's why we teamed up during the special. Of course he saw that I was pissed off when he was eliminated, due to what Lindsay was doing, and he told me the honest truth. Before he was brought back into the game, he told me that he could tell her a message, and I told him to tell her that I'm disappointed, but I partially have myself to blame... When we were on the same team together in "World Tour", the vibe was different. I felt like an outcast on the team, Owen was coddling and befriending Noah, so I felt like he distanced himself from me to make Noah feel better. There was no fallout or anything, and we did talk about a few things, but there was distance. HE railed me over the coals when we were on the yacht, since he called me a traitor, and that I'm pathetic for wanting to suck Al's cock. He called me a loser, and how everything people said about me was true. He was harsh, and I... can't forgive him for the foul stuff he said to me that day."

Josh flipped through the last few pictures, "So we discussed Sadie above with Katie, so Sierra is next. You claimed that you didn't have much issue with her being on the season, but how do you feel about her personally?"

Tyler shivered dramatically to get his point across, "Man she is creepy. Cody would tell me all of the stuff she did behind the scenes, and I couldn't believe the horror that she inflicted on him. And even with me, she REALLY interrogated me about the issues I had with Lindsay, Leshawna, and Harold, as she wanted to know the tea. This continued happening EVEN AFTER THE THREE OF THEM WERE BOOTED FROM THE SEASON. I just didn't care for her antics, and then she asked me if I was sleeping with Alejandro as a joke, which I knew was odd, because Izzy said the same thing. And then I remember in "All-Stars" she was spreading rumors of Lindsay and Lightning potentially sleeping together, so I just didn't care for her whatsoever."

"So the last person from the original cast is Trent. You only competed in the first season with him, and you were booted early. Apparently there was some tension, since you didn't like how close him and Lindsay were..."

He sighed thinking back at it all, as he received a picture of the musician, "We never got along, and we still don't get along, though there isn't any hatred. AS SOON as I was eliminated, he was flirting with Lindsay all over the place when they were doing that challenge, and this was when he was trying to hook up with Gwen. To me, that showed that he's a low-key player, and I did agree with some of the others who said that he had multiple personalities. He then used Lindsay to cause more conflict with Duncan and Gwen, which I told him that I didn't appreciate, and then he started acted a victim about the entire situation. After a while, we started getting in a good place as the season was ending, and when I was eliminated in "World Tour", but I do think he fanned the flames between Harold and I when that mess was happening, which Cody told me about while the season was happening. He got REALLY MAD at me for the whole Al mess on the yacht, and I called him out for intentionally doing mess to try and cause mess with Duncan and Gwen's relationship. I wasn't the closest with many people from the show, but a lot of ties were permanently ruined from that yacht on the fourth season."

Josh sighed, as he handed the final picture, "So let's talk about Lindsay. We saw you two hook up through your time on the show, before being split up within a few episodes. Why did you cling onto her so quickly, and why did you let her continually make a fool of you?"

"I thought she was an attractive, sweet woman that's worth getting to know. We instantly had that vibe with one another, and that... connection. It's funny, since I didn't know for sure if she liked me back, until she screamed that I shouldn't be booted first. It was during that night after the elimination, where I met up with her, and thanked her for defending me, and she said it was just payback for me defending her against the bug. We ended up meeting under the dock that night, and we just kept on meeting there. There was an event after Eva was eliminated, where I was hounded by the team, and I left crying under the dock. She met with me, and something similar ended up happening to her. After a while, some of our friends started helping us sneaking around, and it really did feel like Romeo and Juliet. She said that she was watching my ass when I was tied, and what people didn't see is that she caressed, tapped, and groped it, which turned me on, and then we made out."

"How did you feel about her once she was eliminated? She mentioned that you took her to meet your parents between seasons, and it didn't go well."

Tyler's face easily reddened from the traumatic memory, "They did not take to her well, as they claimed that her boobs was fake, and she wasn't a good look for my aristocratic family. I think after that, Lindsay pulled back, but she didn't tell me about it initially, so watching one on "Action", and getting more intel once the eliminated contestants showed up was... frustrating. When she did get eliminated, neither one of us spoke to one another, and it wasn't because neither of us didn't want to, but we didn't know what to say, or how to go about it. We did have a passionate kiss once we were drunk at the finale party, but nothing was official, and we didn't speak until... she and Harold put Leshawna and I on a four way, and had that huge blowup. It was also annoying, since there were pictures of her and Trent getting cozy, and I was being told that they were hooking up. By the Gemmies, things did cool off, and she acted like she didn't know who I was. While I do know that she does get trauma shocked at times, from... stuff that happened to her, I knew she was still mad at me. We made up based on what you all saw on the show, and it was really nice. Of course it did not last very long, and she was eliminated next. When I was eliminated, we ended up like Bridgette and Geoff were in the last season, and couldn't keep our hands off one another."

Josh looked bored, and wanted to get into some more mess, "So throughout all of this, it seems like neither one of you spoke about anything in depth regarding your relationship. It has been discussed that your relationship went downhill after the show, but you two are holding onto it for relevance. How were things like after the show?"

"We were happy for the first year or so, but on the trip, she got mad at me because Alejandro kind of got me into bodybuilding as a fuel to better myself, and she said that it made me miserable, and that I was letting my parents words get to my head. She thought that I was being exactly like how they wanted me to be; uptight and entitled, and her parents started disliking me. Our parents got into a fist fight around the time of "All-Stars", and I didn't see why she would want to go back on the show, with how she's been eliminated every single time, and how they especially made sure she lost early on in the last season. Turns out, her doing that season turned out really well for us, since we were able to think about our individual goals, and what we need to do in order to accomplish that, and move forward with our lives. I never believed the rumors between her and Lightning. So we started doing therapy right after the show officially ended, and we realized that both of our parents are toxic people who don't deserve to have a lot of access to our lives, and we wanted our relationship to be about us, and for us. We did get eloped a few years ago, and debate about whether we should have a wedding or not, but we are struggling to have children right now."

"Alright, have you interacted with any of the others from the later 2 generations?"

He listed them off pretty quickly, "So I am friends with Brick, Lightning, and Sam. We all met up a bit after their season filmed, and I've gotten to know Dakota, who is also a great friends of Lindsay's. They are the only ones I speak to, but I am closest to Lightning. Rodney is actually a good friend of mine, and he's really the only person I spend any time with from that weird ass cast."

Josh wanted to wrap this up, "So let's get this shit over and done with. What did you learn through the show, since the show, and what are you doing now?"

He actually thought about it for quite a bit, "I guess the main thing I learned is that I have to follow my own path, and to stop being what everyone expects, or wants me to be. People expected me to be a vain, mean person. I thought I had to be with the popular people, but I learned that I could be my own popular person. The main thing I did learn was coordination and discipline, which has helped me utilize my strengths, and to not be as clumsy. Instead of trying to be the best athlete, I used that to build my aesthetics. Being an aesthetic bodybuilder, and a sports model has done me a lot of good."

"Alright thanks," Josh cut in, pulling Tyler up, before walking him to the door. After closing it, Josh sighed, "So we just have the two casts now, and they should be relatively short and simple."
