Courtney sat downstairs on a couch while eating from one of DJ's plates.
DJ sat next to her.
DJ: Pepper? (He offered while holding the grinder up to her)
Courtney: I'm fine, thank you.
DJ: (Peppers his eggs) I'm glad Lightning and Leshawna made up. Ezekiel and Dakota came around too. Don't even get me started on what Duncan did for Sammy.
Courtney: Yeah...
DJ: (Looks at Courtney) You ok?
Courtney: I'm fine.
DJ: Is the kiss still bothering you?
Courtney: ...(Sighs) DJ, do you remember when you told me that you want to know what being in love feels like?
DJ: Yeah.
Courtney: Well...I never appreciated Duncan for who he was. Instead of leaving him, I always tried to change him...maybe I have never properly been in love either, considering I can't keep a guy.
DJ: (Gives Courtney a sad look before attempting to joke with her) So, you're saying we're both losers?
Courtney: (Chuckles)
DJ: Courtney, move on and find love again.
Courtney: (Takes out her PDA) I think I'd rather find out what my lawyers have in store for our lawsuit.
DJ: Hey...
Courtney: (Looks at DJ)
DJ: You CAN find love again. Love is not an easy thing. It takes WORK to love someone. I'm sure you'll get there, and I think I will too. Just be patient.
Courtney: ...I'm not good at being patient...I don't think that's gonna happen, DJ. (Continues using her PDA) I'm sure you have a chance though. (She said while looking at her screen, feeling defeated)
DJ: (Gives Courtney a sad look)
The final six competitors met outside to be given their next challenge by Chris.
Courtney saw The Killers approach and became enraged.
Courtney: YOU TWO! (She yelled at Alejandro and Amy before Sammy and Leshawna held her back)
Alejandro: ¡Buenos Días! (He causally said to Courtney with a wave, despite her anger)
Courtney: I KNOW WHAT YOU TWO DID!
Amy: Topher! You're a snitch!
Topher: And you're a word that rhymes with snitch!
Amy: (Scoffs)
Sammy: You two tried to turn me against Duncan and Courtney!
Amy: And we would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for that meddling kid! (She said referring to Topher)
Topher: What does that make you...the monster, or the dog?
Amy: STOP CALLING ME A...!
Chris: (Approaches the area) Did Topher speak?
Amy: YES, CHRIS! HE WAS OVER HERE CALLING US HORRIBLE NAMES AND EVERYTHING!
DJ: "Us"?
Topher: (Looks at camera) Seriously, and she called ME the snitch?
Chris: (Approaches Topher) Topher, I have a different job for you today. (Takes Topher's camera)
Topher: What's that?
Chris: Well, after my little outburst the other night, I decided to start a new hobby.
Topher: Really?
Chris: Yep! (Pushes an empty bucket into Topher's hands) I am collecting bear hair.
Topher: Bear hair?
Chris: It is quite a dangerous hobby, which why I need YOU to go out into the forest and fill this entire bucket with bear hair.
Topher: ...Can't you ask an intern to do this?
Chris: I lost my last intern the other night. After I got too angry, I pushed her into the flames while she was extinguishing them.
Topher: (Drops mouth in horror)
Chris: (Laughs) She'll be fine. She's in the hospital setting up a lawsuit...so...GET TO COLLECTING!
Topher: (Fearfully runs into the forest)
Confessional (DJ): That dude Chris...how do I even comment...wow...just wow.
Courtney: Alejandro, I am FURIOUS with you for what you and Amy did!
Alejandro: Chris asked us to do it.
Courtney: AND YOU SAID YES?!
Alejandro: To be fair, he is our host.
Amy: He's also the man who signs our checks, not that I need much of a bonus payment to mess with YOU, Miss Thing! (She mocked)
Courtney: You are gonna be Miss Hospitalized if you don't WATCH IT!
Chris: Today's challenge is a test of knowledge and strength. But first...Courtney, you will be SWITCHING teams.
DJ, Sammy and Leshawna gasped.
Courtney: WHAT?!
Chef Hatchet grabbed Courtney and moved her over next to Alejandro and Amy.
Alejandro: Welcome to The Killer Bass, Courtney!
Courtney: I was a member of The Killer Bass before you and LAME-Y were even THOUGHT OF! (She angrily yelled at Alejandro before turning back to Chris) YOU'RE PUTTING ME ON A TEAM WITH THE PEOPLE WHO SET ME UP YESTERDAY?!
Amy: Oh my GAG! Why would we want Courtney on our team?!
Chris: The challenge involves one competitor at the bottom holding up two teammates for each team. This is the only way to make the challenge fair.
DJ: It's not our fault that The Killers keep losing challenges!
Amy: Oh whatever, we're totally going to beat you today...even with Courtney!
Courtney: (Grunts at Amy)
Confessional (Courtney): It is taking every ounce of my power not to crush Amy's neck...don't even ask me what I what to do to Alejandro. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
Chris: DJ...Alejandro...could each of you hold up your arms, please?
DJ and Alejandro obeyed before a pallet was dropped on each of their hands.
Alejandro: Woah! (Struggles to regain his balance)
DJ: HEY! What the...were you TRYING to crush us?!
Chris: No, but you probably will get crushed if you drop those things.
Chef Hatchet picked up Leshawna and Sammy before shoving them in a cannon. The cannon fired Sammy and Leshawna on top of DJ's pallet.
Chef Hatchet picked up Courtney and Amy before shoving them in a cannon. The cannon fired Amy and Courtney on top of Alejandro's pallet.
Chris: Have you guys ever seen one of those island challenges on TV when the contestants hold onto an object for the entire challenge, and the last one to let go wins?
Courtney: Yes, those are called endurance challenges. This is NOT the same thing!
Chris: I know! This is MUCH more entertaining! The first teammate to drop their team loses. However, the first teammates to win the mental part of the challenge could ALSO win for the team. It's a battle of endurance with both BRAINS and brawn!
Chef Hatchet handed each of the contestants on the pallets a buzzer and a paper.
Chris: Since most of you are in college, I put ten of the most difficult academic questions on those papers. Hit the buzzer to answer a question. The team that answers the most questions wins.
Leshawna: Are you ok down there, brother?
DJ: I'm good. (He said, casually holding the pallet)
Amy: Do NOT drop us, Alejandro!
Alejandro: Of course, Amy. I cannot imagine why any man in his right mind would dare drop a woman like you (He said sarcastically, but in a charming tone)
Confessional (Alejandro): Accept her father. My objective is to eliminate DJ, so I truly hope Amy actually helps us WIN the challenge.
Chris: (Pulls out a card) Question one, when a parent asks a man to fill a balloon for his child, what are balloons generally filled with?
Amy: (Hits buzzer) AIR, obviously! (She said confidently)
Chris: True...but that is not the word I'm looking for.
Sammy: (Hits buzzer) Helium?
Chris: Same-y takes the first point for the Gophers!
Leshawna: Her name is SAMMY, Chris. Good work, girl! (High-fives Sammy)
Courtney: Ugh! Next time, let ME use the buzzer! (She snapped at Amy before snatching the buzzer away)
Chris: Question two, earth is a planet, but what is the sun?
Amy: (Hits the buzzer while it's in Courtney's hand) It's basically a giant floating lightbulb that doesn't need to be plugged in. (She said confidently)
Courtney: (Drops mouth while glaring at Amy)
DJ: (Shakes head in disappointment)
Alejandro: ...
Chris: Um...again...not exactly the word I'm looking for.
Leshawna: (Hits buzzer) A star?
Chris: Leshawna earns a second point for The Gophers!
Sammy: Yay! (High-fives Leshawna)
Courtney: Amy...(she said while her hand was on her face in disappointment)...if you touch this buzzer one more time...
Amy: Alright, alright! Just win us a point already!
Confessional (Courtney): I knew the answers to BOTH of those questions! Ugh!
Chris What is the second largest country in the world?
Amy: (Hits Buzzer) I HAVE AN ANSWER!
Courtney: AMY WAIT! The answer needs to be CORRECT. Think for a moment! Where are we RIGHT NOW?
Amy...Ah! (Turns to Chris) The second largest country in the world is MUSKOKA!
Courtney: AHHHHHHHHHHH! (She yelled in frustration)
Chris: That's...very...very wrong.
Amy: WHAT?! Courtney, look what you made me do?! (She yelled)
Leshawna: (Hits buzzer) I'm no geologist, but I'm gonna say Canada.
Chris: The Gophers have lead with a score of three to zero!
Courtney: Alejandro, you are more than welcome to drop us both. (She said with a defeatist attitude)
Alejandro: Amy, I think you should allow Courtney to answer the questions!
Amy: Fine! I will! (She said, feeling annoyed)
Chris: What is the most common religion in the world? I'll give you a hint, it's named after yours truly.
Courtney: Oh, please (She said as she rolled her eyes at Chris and hit the buzzer) Christianity!
Chris: Correct! Feel free to worship me at any time.
Amy: Do we actually get extra points if we do that?!
DJ: Next question, please.
Chris: What kind of animals are humans considered as?
Courtney: (Hits buzzer) Mammals.
Chris: Correct!
DJ: Phew. (Wipes off his sweat with one hand, while continuing to hold up the pallet with the other hand)
Alejandro: (Widens eyes at DJ) Did he just...?!
Chris: Next question, how many bones are in the human body?
Courtney: (Hits buzzer) 206.
Chris: The Killer Bass come back strong with a score of three to three!
Leshawna: Good job, Court!
Sammy: Yeah!
Courtney: (Pouts)
Confessional (Courtney): The team swap has me so stressed. I hate, hate, HATE losing! If I lose the challenge, Alejandro and Amy will send me home. If I win the challenge, I lose one of my former teammates! I DON'T WANT TO LOSE ANYTHING!
Chris: DJ...Alejandro...how are you two...HOLDING up? (He asked with a chuckle)
DJ: I'm fine. (He said calmly while sweating)
Alejandro: And, I too. (He agreed with a slight struggle in his voice and more sweat than DJ pouring down his face)
Chris: Well, it appears that no one has been dropped on their head yet. Let's continue into our final three questions. The team that scores the most points for this round wins the entire challenge...unless anyone would like to...DROP out now. (Chuckles)
Alejandro: PLEASE...(Inhales and exhales deeply) proceed.
Chris: Alright (Throws each member on the pallet a worksheet)
Chris: Question one, the numbers are 16, 06, 68, 88, BLANK, and 98. What number is...ok, this is getting REALLY BORING (Pushes a button on his remote)
Suddenly a circular trench opened around DJ, and then one opened around Alejandro. Inside each trench was a pool of piranhas and electric eels.
Alejandro: (Gasp)
Leshawna and Sammy: (Shriek in horror)
DJ: Seriously, Chris?!
Chris: Anywho, which number is missing in the blank spot?
Courtney: Um, ok...so the the first two numbers are 16 and 6, so maybe the pattern is to subtract ten...but how would that explain 68? (She said to Amy, while trying to answer the question on the worksheet)
Amy: Well, you and Alejandro told me to stop using the buzzer, so this is all on you. (She said with crossed arms and a bad attitude)
Courtney: This requires a TEAM effort, genius! At least ATTEMPT to be useful! (She said out of frustration)
As Courtney and Amy continued arguing, Leshawna and Sammy struggled to find the answer.
Sammy: (Scratches head) I just don't know. It seems so hard to figure out in such a short time.
Leshawna: (Moves the paper around, smiles, and then hits the buzzer) 87!
Chris: Leshawna scores the point for The Screaming Gophers!
Courtney and Amy: (Gasps)
Alejandro: How?!
Sammy: Wow! What was the pattern?
Leshawna: There is no pattern. Sometimes to solve a problem, you've got to look at it from a different angle (She said as she turned the numbers upside down, revealing to be 86, BLANK, 88, 89, 90, and 91)
Sammy: Whoa! Great job, Leshawna!
Courtney: Chris! What kind of game are you running here?! I shouldn't have to turn a paper upside down to get the answer.
Chris: Unpredictable game means unpredictable challenges. Next question, what word is always spelt wrong in every single dictionary?
Courtney: (Hits buzzer) The word "wrong"!
Chris: Correct! That's another point for The Bass!
Confessional (Courtney): And I should know, because I have checked dictionaries for spelling errors many times.
Chris: Alright, turn your pages!
Leshawna, Sammy, Courtney, and Amy turned to the next page to find a very difficult math equation.
Leshawna: Uh oh...
Chris: So far, the score is four to four. The first team to either keep their pallet steady longer than the other or to solve this crazy math problem wins the whole challenge.
Sammy: (Sits down with Leshawna and begins solving the equation) Ok, first we need to add these two together!
Leshawna: (Takes out her pencil and begins helping Sammy) Got it! Don't forget to multiply this number with that number in the parentheses.
Sammy: Should we divide on both sides?
Courtney: We could carry this number over and multiply x on both sides! (Stops writing and looks over to Amy while they're sitting together) Amy?!
Amy: What?! I normally have Same-y do this type of stuff for me! Can't you solve it alone?!
Courtney: Why would I solve it ALONE?! We are supposed to be a team!
Alejandro grew tired of his team's bickering. He also grew tired of holding the pallot. He looked over and noticed DJ's resilience in comparison to his own sweaty visage. Alejandro could only hold on for much longer. He turned towards Chris, and called out to him.
Alejandro: Chris!
Chris: (Turns to Alejandro)
Alejandro: (Glares and angrily shakes his head towards DJ)
Chris: (Nods in response) Chef! Blaineley!
Chef Hatchet and Blaineley approached Chris. Chris took the two in a group huddle.
Chris: My next big star is struggling a bit. I need you two to walk over to DJ and...level the playing field.
The three of them snickered before Chef Hatchet and Blaineley left the group. As they left, Topher returned.
Topher was covered in cuts, bruises, and scratches. He was badly hurt by a bear.
Topher: (Hands Chris a bucket full of bear hair)
Chris: Nice work, dude! (Throws the bucket into one of the trenches) But, I just realized that collecting bear hair is kinda weird. (He teased Topher)
Topher: (Glares at Chris before failing to the floor in pain)
Chris took out a remote and pressed a button. A bridge appeared in the middle of DJ's trench. Chef Hatchet and Blaineley crossed the bridge and approached DJ ominously. DJ gave them a concerned look.
DJ: What's going on?
Chef Hatchet: Hey kid, (Puts on a rubber glove and takes an electric eel out of the water) I just wanna wish you good luck, OOPS (Throws the eel into DJ's shirt)
DJ: WHOA...AH! (He shouted as the eel electrocuted him.
Blaineley: I'll get it! (Begins beating DJ with her purse)
DJ: OUCH! OUCH! STOP! (He cried in pain before being electrocuted again)
Chef Hatchet: It's slipping down there! (Punches DJ's stomach)
Blaineley: I think I see it! (Kicks DJ in his crotch)
Tears fell from DJ's eyes as the eel finally fell out of his shirt. The pallet rocked back and forth.
Sammy: Whoa! (Holds onto Leshawna for stability)
Leshawna: (Struggles with Sammy not to fall) We're almost done, DJ! (Leshawna pleaded, hoping DJ would stop rocking the pallot)
DJ groaned and grunted in agony as more tears fell from his eyes.
Chef Hatchet: Sorry, kid...(Leaves)
Blaineley: It's just business, hun. (She said with a slight smile, wiping away one of his tears as she walked off)
After Chef Hatchet and Blaineley crossed the bridge, Chris used his remote to get rid of the bridge. Alejandro smirked at DJ's pain before giving Chris a nod.
Chris responded with a thumbs up before giving Chef Hatchet and Blaineley a high-five.
Blaineley: Did anyone notice?
Chris: Nah, we're good...except for DJ. Ouch! (He said mockingly, covering his crotch in false empathy with a chuckle)
DJ: Ahhhhhhhhhhh...
Topher: (Stares at DJ with empathy while picking up a camera to film with)
Sammy: Almost done, DJ! (She said as her and Leshawna continued working)
Amy: Don't you DARE drop us, Alejandro!
Alejandro: Excellent advice as always, Amy! (He responded through clenched teeth, trying not to deliberately dump Courtney and Amy into the trench)
Leshawna: Girl, we keep going in circles! I tried everything, including the Pythagorean Theorem! I feel like an idiot!
Sammy: (Puts hand on Leshawna's shoulder) Hey! We BOTH are struggling with this! (She comforted Leshawna)
Courtney: No matter how many times I restart my work, I CANNOT SOLVE THIS STUPID PROBLEM!
Sammy: Wait a minute! (She said as she looked at Leshawna) Some equations cannot be solved! Maybe we can't find the answer because...
Leshawna: The answer does not exist. (She said in realization, before smiling with Sammy)
Sammy: (Hits buzzer) THE ANSWER DOES NOT EXIST!
DJ: Ahh...I can't hold this anymore...(DJ said in agony before tipping the pallet)
Suddenly, the entire team of the Screaming Gophers fell into the trench. Immediately after, the entire team of the Killer Bass fell into their trench.
"Ouch! Ah! OUCH! AHHHHH!" Everyone screamed as the piranhas and electric eels seized them.
Chris, Chef Hatchet, and Blaineley: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (They laughed hysterically)
Topher filmed from afar, feeling pitiful and guilty as he watched everything.
Alejandro frantically bounced up and down in the water while being attacked by all of the sea life, but Amy casually floated next him.
Amy: (Gasps and looks around) My earrings are gone! OH MY GOSH! MY EARRINGS! I'm gonna CRY! (She exclaimed as she started crying while Alejandro continued being attacked right next to her)
Despite her hatred for them, Courtney fiercely grabbed onto Alejandro and Amy. She pulled them towards shore with all her might, Alejandro got out of the water and pulled the rest of his team out.
Knowing they were out of danger, Courtney left her team and ran over to help The Gophers.
Leshawna: SOMEBODY HELP ME! (Leshawna cried as she struggled to pull DJ and Sammy out.
Topher dropped his camera and ran over to help Courtney and Leshawna bring the rest of the Gophers out of the water.
Chris: What the...? TOPH! Dude, c'mon! (Chris said in a disapproving tone)
Topher successfully helped Leshawna pull DJ onto shore while Courtney pulled Sammy onto shore. Both DJ and Sammy were unconscious.
Alejandro: (Looks over to the Gophers with concern) Oh no...are they...?
Amy: MY DIAMOND EARRINGS ARE GONE! (She screamed in Alejandro's ears, much to his anger)
Leshawna: I don't know CPR!
Topher: Chris, does anyone on the show know CPR?!
Chris: I guess could've learned CPR when I was younger. I've always wanted to be a firefighter, but I didn't want the hat to mess up my hair, and the flames are just so hot. The uniforms are kinda cool though.
Blaineley: So true. Uniforms are hot, but that work is NOT. (She joked)
Topher: YOU'RE NOT HELPING!
Suddenly, Sammy rose up and inhaled. Courtney had given Sammy CPR while Chris was talking.
Leshawna: Sammy! (Hugs Sammy)
Sammy: Oh my gosh! Thank you!
Leshawna: It wasn't me. (She responded as both of them looked towards Courtney)
Courtney was resuscitating DJ as fast as she could.
Topher, Sammy and Leshawna stared at them both in fear.
DJ woke to see Courtney's hands on his face, but at first, he couldn't recognize her.
DJ: Oh no...I lost the challenge...and my LIFE?!
Courtney: No, DJ! You're fine! (She said happily, much to everyone else's happiness)
Chris: Not only that, but for answering the question correctly, THE SCREAMERS WIN THE CHALLENGE!
Amy: WHAT ABOUT MY EARRINGS?! (She said angrily while still crying) My diamond earrings fell into the water! My diamond earrings ARE GONE!
Courtney: Amy, your sister was over here dying.
Amy: THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! (She said to Courtney)
Courtney: That your sister was dying? (She asked, almost sarcastically)
Amy: (Turns to Alejandro) Do you see how loyal she still is to her old team! She's just like Lightning! She clearly threw the challenge! We are SO voting you off!
Courtney: DO IT! (Looks at the Gophers) I'm just glad you guys are safe, and thanks Topher! I knew you had a heart in there.
Topher: Are you kidding?! You're the medic who saved the day.
DJ: (Pushes himself from the ground) Well, she was a C.I.T. (He complemented Courtney)
Courtney smiled before her Topher, Leshawna, and Sammy hugged DJ.
Chris: Alright! Alright! Nobody died! (He said, tired of watching the group hug) Which means someone is going home tonight! Killer Bass, I will see you at the bonfire ceremony...again!
Back at the house, Courtney began packing her things.
Leshawna: Maybe Alejandro will vote off Amy.
Courtney: Why? So I can help you guys vote him off tomorrow? Amy is Alejandro's closest thing to an ally. He's not just going to let her go.
Sammy: (Kneels next to her) If you go and I win, I'm splitting the money with you.
Courtney: Don't!
Sammy: It is the least I can do!
Leshawna: That was awesome, Court!
Courtney: What's awesome is how smart you two were. Combined with DJ's strength, I'm sure you'll make it to the final three without me. (She said in a somewhat depressed tone while closing up her suitcase)
Leshawna: (Kneels down on Courtney's other side) I'm sure you'll get your prize after you take Chris down in that lawsuit.
Sammy: You have our full support, Courtney! Chris needs to be stopped, and if anyone can shut him down...it's you.
Courtney gave a weak smile.
Confessional (Courtney): Sixth place, huh? Looks like I've lost another season. And I got rejected by Duncan! I could've made 8,000 anywhere else! I went through all of this trouble FOR NOTHING! (Knocks out lamp and then lights a candle) Yeah, taking down Chris will be nice, but taking home that million dollars would've felt SO much better. Too bad I'll never get it.
Courtney stood in the kitchen, staring at the moon through the window. Alejandro entered the room.
Courtney: Are you here to boast?
Alejandro: Follow me.
Courtney: What?!
Alejandro: Follow me.
Courtney: (Raises her eyebrow) I don't want to follow you anywhere!
Alejandro: Do you want to stay in the game?
Courtney: ...of course, but...
Alejandro: Please, follow me. (Turns around and slowly walks away)
Courtney: (Glares and follows)
Alejandro led Courtney out the mansion, into the woods, and towards a large rock.
Courtney: Where are you taking me?
Alejandro: (Pulls out a radio) Were we followed?
"You're all clear! C'mon in!" A voice in the radio responded before the rock unexpectedly opened up, revealing to be yet another artificial part of the island.
Courtney: (Drops mouth in shock)
Alejandro: After you...(He politely directed her into the hole)
Courtney: (Sighs) This is the strangest thing I have I ever signed up for. (Jumps inside)
Alejandro: (Jumps in after Courtney)
The rock closed back, hiding the secret opening.
Courtney slid into an underground lair where she was greeted by Chris, Chef, Blaineley, and Topher.
Other staff members worked by the computers. Some of the workers started screaming and running from malfunctioning killer robot animals.
Chris: Welcome to our underground control room!
Courtney: Is there any particular reason why we couldn't just meet in your production room back at the mansion?
Chris: After DJ stole Ezekiel from us...
Courtney: (Crosses arms and glares)
Chris: Uh...I mean...after DJ let Ezekiel out to go play, I decided that business needed to be handled more discreetly.
Courtney: And what business do you have with me here?
Chris: I am interested in sending you and Alejandro straight into the finale!
Courtney: What?!
Alejandro: l like you Courtney, and I do not like Amy. I am willing to help you vote for Amy, so long as you pledge your allegiance to us.
Chris: You will be given many advantages, you will stay until day twelve, you will receive the full 12,000, and you will have a guaranteed position as a finalist!
Blaineley: It's an offer you can't refuse...so long as you don't sue.
Courtney: YOUR GAME IS EVIL! WHY WOULD I NOT SUE?!
Chris: C'mon, Court. Take a risk. Cut loose. I didn't let your team have a winning streak just so I could send you home with 8,000. We both know that's chump change.
Courtney: (Widens eyes) You...you manipulated the elimination order?!
Chris: Your team played the game well, but you didn't think I would just let Alejandro get eliminated so easily did you? Duncan never had a chance. Lightning wasn't smart enough to stick around. Ezekiel and Dakota are like animals. And Amy's just a useless brat. You, on the other hand, are a joy to watch onscreen. It would be an honor if you and Alejandro became my big stars for the finale...and maybe even for the next season.
Courtney: Is this why you made me switch teams, so you could pressure me into joining this horrible alliance?!
Alejandro: I've seen the way you play the game. As much as you claim to hate it, I can tell you desperately want to win. There is no need for you to go home tonight, Courtney. The merge is tomorrow. We could dominate the game together.
Chris: (Hands Courtney a pen and a new contract) Once you sign this, you and Alejandro will be the official finalists of the season. The game will continue in your favor.
Courtney: (Raises eyebrow) And my lawsuit will be dropped.
Chris: Yep! So...what do you say?
Courtney: ...Even if I wanted to do this...how do I know you won't go back on your word?
Chris held up two immunity idols.
Alejandro: (Smirks)
Courtney: (Gasps)
Chris: In the event that things go wrong and you are targeted at an elimination ceremony, just use your idol and the next person with the highest amount of votes with go in your place.
Courtney: This...cannot be real. I am ACTUALLY going into the finale?!
Chris: You are, only if have an agreement. I will be pushing you and Alejandro into the finale for the rest of the game.
Courtney: As much as I disapprove of your tactics...
Chris: ...
Courtney: (Signs contract) I play to win.
Chris: Awesome! Make sure you pretend to be clueless at Amy's elimination ceremony. We need to keep things looking suspenseful...
Courtney: In order to put on a good show.
Alejandro: (exchanges a smirk with Courtney)
Chris: Exactly! See you guys at the ceremony! Remember, BE CONVINCING.
Confessional (Courtney): YES! After all these years, I can finally WIN the show!
The scene transitions to Amy yelling at her former team after the last marshmallow is given to Courtney.
Amy: YOU TRAITOR! (She snapped at Alejandro) After everything I have done for this team, you decided to send ME home?! Courtney is going to eliminate you once she has the chance!
Alejandro: Well then, I suppose I am in trouble. (Stares at Courtney with a smirk)
Chris: Time to pack, Amy! The Boat of Losers awaits.
Amy: WHO IS GOING TO REPLACE MY EARRINGS?!
Chris: NO ONE CARES!
Amy: UGH! (Storms away)
Chris: (Turns back to Alejandro and Courtney) Congrats, you two are safe...for now (Winks at them).
Courtney and Alejandro winked back.
Courtney returned to her room and was immediately hugged by roommates Leshawna and Sammy.
Leshawna: I am so happy you are safe!
Sammy: We told you Alejandro would hate Amy's guts...(sighs).
Courtney: What is wrong, Sammy?
Sammy: My sister still hates me.
Leshawna: Yeah, that's rough. But remember girl, we're your sisters too! Right, Court.
Courtney: Y-yeah! Of course!
The three of them continued their passionate hug. Courtney began to feel guilty. Her guilt turned to anger. Suddenly, she like she wasn't wrong. She was just angry with how cluttered her heart felt.
In DJ's room, DJ walked out of the shower and put on his white pajamas. He threw himself on the bed, still in pain from the challenge. He reached towards the floor to grab his teddy bear, and then paused. Instead of grabbing the bear, he simply turned out the light and went into a deep sleep.
Amy angrily grabbed a bottle of water out of the kitchen and went upstairs to pack her things. As Amy walked down the hall toward her room, she saw Leshawna, Courtney, and Sammy standing outside their room. Amy rolled her eyes and took a sip of water.
Sammy: (Turns to Amy and smiles) In all seriousness, I hope you have a safe trip back home. I love you, sis.
Angered by Sammy's words, Amy turned towards the three of them and deliberately spat out the water onto them all.
Topher: (Drops mouth)
Alejandro: (Gets surprised, while watching from his door)
Chris: (Smiles widely)
Blaineley: (Puts her hands on the back of Chris' shoulders in excitement for what would happen next)
Confessional (Courtney): ...All I remember thinking is...I'm about to beat this woman up.
Courtney slapped Amy so hard that Amy flew into Topher's camera. Courtney then lunged onto Amy and a brawl began in the hallway. Production rushed into the altercation as Courtney continued beating Amy.
The fight moved from one end of the hallway to the other. Courtney and Amy were eventually by the balcony entrance. The group barged through the balcony entrance doors and the fight continued outside on the balcony.
With all her might, Courtney grabbed onto Amy's hair and swung her over the balcony. Amy fell from the two-story balcony into the pool.
Leshawna: OOH! (She reacted with excitement, putting her hand over her mouth)
Sammy: Yikes! (She said with pity)
Chef Hatchet: Alright! Alright! That's enough! (He said, holding Courtney as she struggled to run downstairs and finish Amy)
Courtney: I'M NOT DONE YET! (She shouted as Chef escorted her, Leshawna, and Sammy into their room)
The staff closed Courtney's bedroom door and guarded anyone from coming out.
Chris, Blaineley, and a few other staff members ran downstairs to help Amy out of the water.
Chris: That was AWESOME! You got every shot, right dude?! (He asked Topher)
Topher: Yes, sir. (Topher answered in shame)
Amy: (Gets pulled out of the water) UGH! I'm all wet!
Blaineley: Yes, dear. Typically, water makes you wet. (She said wittingly while wrapping a big towel around Amy and putting a smaller towel against her head) OH NO!
Amy: What?!
Blaineley: Baby, your head!
Amy: Yeah, I hit the side of the pool a bit. it's just a scrape, or maybe a bruise.
Blaineley: Baby, this is a CUT! This is a very MESSY cut. We need to get you to the hospital. Your head needs stitches.
Amy: Stiches?! COURTNEY, I WILL DESTROY YOU! (She said, frantically jumping past production before being grabbed by security) YOU BETTER HOPE YOU NEVER SEE ME AGAIN! (She cried while being carried away to the Boat of Losers) YOU NEED ME, MCLEAN! DON'T YOU DARE LET ME GO!
Chris: An elimination is an elimination. Sorry, Same-y...oops...I mean Amy!
Amy: (Screams in anger while being carried away)
Back upstairs, Leshawna and Sammy sat on their beds mediating for Courtney.
Courtney: She spat all over us! How are you two so calm?!
Sammy: I've spent most of my life dealing with her. It's taught me to be very...forgiving.
Leshawna: Court...I'm over it. I think I'd rather turn the other cheek.
Courtney: TURN THE OTHER CHEEK?!
Leshawna: I mean, you could've just hit her once and then stopped. You took it to a whole other level. Don't you remember what I said DJ told me? These people WANT you to lose your cool and act a fool for the cameras!
Courtney: (Rolls eyes) I need to clean her spit off of me. This is ridiculous. (Walks into the bathroom and slams door)
Leshawna and Sammy exchanged a concerned look.
Confessional (Leshawna): I see where Court is coming from. Two days ago, I wanted to break Amy in half. Right now, I just want to keep it together. (Smells her skin) OH MY GOODNESS! Is that Amy's BREATH?! Her. breath. smells. like a TOILET! Her breathe smells like that GIANT TOILET from Total Drama All-Stars, ok?!
Chris: (Stands outside and looks at camera to do the outro) Well, that's one way to end an episode. Will Courtney throw anything or anyone else off of this balcony?
Courtney: DON'T TEMPT ME! (She yelled at Chris from inside the mansion)
Chris: Will DJ and Alejandro continue to carry their teammates through the challenges?! And will Alejandro lose yet another challenge?!
Alejandro: (Enters camera frame) I...AM...STILL...HERE!
Chris: (Pushes Alejandro out of the camera frame) Find out next time on TOTAL...DRAMA...FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY!
