Episode 7 Phobia Factor
Last time on Total Drama Island….
The campers put their survival skills to the test when they had to spend the night camping in the woods. Allen and Ramona got separated from their team, and got into an argument over who's fault it was. Garry's ghost story freaked out the Gophers and Chef scared the Bass by dressing up as a bear. Unfortunately, a real bear showed up and the Bass spent the night in a tree which really stunk for them. Chelsea got on everyone's nerves talking bad about everyone and just being a general annoyance, and then it rained. Basically, no one got much sleep last night. Ultimately the Gophers were on the chopping block leaving Chelsea without a marshmallow.
Yep the last challenge was rough all right, and if i have anything to say about it, today's will be even more brutal. Luckily I do! What fresh horror do we have in store for our campers? Find out next time on..Total Drama Island!

The Gophers were sitting around at the campfire shortly after Chelsea was eliminated. "This really does suck," Jonathan commented.
"We may never win a challenge at this rate." Garry said. Molly hung her head in defeat.
The Killer Bass had walked up to where they were sitting.
"Are you here to gloat over your victory," Ramona asked annoyed.
"We got some extra dessert from our tuck shop party" Evan explained as Christian held up a plate of green getlin with a gummy worm inside. "Thought you might want some."
"You guys got that for winning?" Erica asked.
"Yep," Brenda replied, "You always get a reward for winning, not that you would know."
"Regardless," Nick interrupted, "I think this is a great opportunity to get to know each other without the competition lording over us."
"What he said," Christian seconded as he and Lamar carried a plate over to the Gophers where Garry noticed the gummy worm.
"Is that a snake?" he asked.
"Snake!" Lamar yelled as he knocked out the plate out of Christian's hands. The plate landed on Faith's head and she was covered in gelatin.
"Dude, it was just a gummy worm," Christian deadpanned.
Sorry for trippin" Lamar apologized, "Snakes just freak me out."
"I feel you man," Christian said, "Frogs give me the creeps"
"You're afraid of frogs?" Ramona asked.
"That's really lame dude," Evan mocked.

Erica - So suddenly everyone starts having this big share fest by the fire. Caroline talked about being afraid of Tornadoes since she was a kid, Jonathan's afraid of Clowns, and for some reason Jake is scared of Lawyers
"What's my worst fear?" Erica thought. "I guess being buried alive."
Caleb added, "Going back to juvie."
"Ever since an encounter I had as a kid." Nick said. "I have been terrified of dogs"
"But dogs are so cute!" Faith replied, "I'm scared of bad haircuts"
"I hate spiders," Ramona shared. "Anything with that many legs has got to be evil."
"Gorillas," Evan said simply.
"Being Poor," Brenda said.
"Cockroaches," Molly said.
"In the spirit of honesty," Garry snarked. "I guess i can tell everyone i'm afraid of the chuck e cheese mascot"
"I don't really wanna talk about it," Allen said nervously.
"Come on, everyone else already shared theirs," Caleb goaded
"Jasmine hasn't," Caroline pointed out.
"Neither has Annie," Christian said.
The 3 campers called out and looked at the other campers. Allen caved first and admitted "Mimes" very sheepishly
"Dude, what?" Evan asked with a barely contained excitement. Allen hid his hands in his face.
"Come on guys," Erica defended, "There's no such thing as a stupid fear." She sent over an encouraging smile to Allen that went unnoticed. "Besides, Jasmine and Annie still haven't told us their fears yet."
"Ok," Jasmine said, "I hate confined spaces, like a lot. Come on Annie you're afraid of something. Spit it out"
"Being picked up," Annie said.
"Let's all get some sleep," Christian suggested, "I've got a bad feeling about tomorrow."

(Main Lodge)
Chris whistled to get everyone's attention at breakfast. "Campers!" he said in a cheesy announcer's voice. "Your next challenge is a little something I like to call: Phobia Factor! Prepare to meet your worst fears!"
"Worse than this?" Ramona asked, looking at hary grey sausage.
"We're in trouble" Molly deadpanned.
"Now for our first victims," Chris read a cue card, "Jake! Meet us at the amphitheater, it's time for a little trip to see," Jake had been drinking out of a mug. "The lawyer!" Jake spit his juice and hit Evan in the face. "Erica, you, me, the beach, a few tons of sand?" Erica gasped.
"I knew it," Christian said.
"Unfortunately," Lamar replied.
"The campfire last night," Allen realized as he was confronting Erica.

"We told them our fears," Christian said, "and they built a challenge around it."
"Chef!" Chris interrupted, "Didn't you have a special order for Christian here today?"
The cook nodded impishly and pulled a basket out of the deep frier that had a whole deep fried frog in it.

"I feel you man," Christian said, "Frogs give me the creeps."

Christian picked up the frog and quickly took a bite of it's head. An actual frog's head popped out of the cross section, causing him to scream and back away.

All the campers had assembled in a kiddie pool filled with cockroaches.

"Cockroaches," Molly said.

Molly looked terrified and considered running away, until Garry placed a confronting hand on her shoulder. She looked at him with a soft smile and then jumped in the pool. Her resolve weakened a bit when more of the roaches were dumped on her, but in the end she gained a point.
"And Molly sets the bar way up there!' Chris announced as her teammates cheered. The score was 1-0 in favor of the Gophers.

(Bass Cabin - Girls Side)
Brenda saw a note attached to where her bed was. "Dear Brenda, to do this challenge for you, we have stripped all your possessions, to make you feel poor. Signed the producers. To gain the point you will have to last the day without asking for your stuff back.

Nick was walking in the Forest with Faith who was given a bad wig to wear for the rest of the day.

Nick said, "I have been terrified of dogs,"
Faith replied, "I'm scared of bad haircuts."

They finally came to a mysterious bunker. As they crept up to it, several barks could be heard inside as Nick froze in fear. A cute dog burst out from inside it and Nick ran away from it, in the process he knocked over Faith whose wig fell off and both of them failed the task.

(Communal Washroom)
Jonathan was in one of the stalls when a large clown appeared. He had a nervous look when he opened up the stall. He however sat there looking him in the eyes and touched the clown on the chest.
"That's good enough for me," Chris announced, "I'm counting it!" Gophers were in the lead 2-0

(Campgrounds)
Ramona walked up to the spider slowly.. She picked it up with her hands and received a point. The Gophers lead 3-0.

Evan was wandering aimlessly when he came across a gorilla. Evan looked confused while it walked up to him. He screamed and ran off, losing the point.
Chris spoke over the loudspeaker "Wow 3-0, Bass are getting their butts kicked"

Chris - to say that Brenda was having a trouble with the little surprise we left her, is a bit of an understatement.
Brenda - This is bad, but i guess it's not being poor if it's just on the Island right? Stupid Chris and his stupid challenges.

(Beach)
Chris was filling up a hole in the sand. Said hole contained another glass coffin, but this one had Erica in it. Allen leaned over her, "There's enough air for an hour. You only need to do 5 minutes," he told her.
"As long as we decide to dig you up," Chris added.
"Not funny Chris!" Erica yelled.
"Sheesh, take a pill."
"I'll be listening the whole time," Allen said, handing her a walkie talkie. "If you panic, just yell and I'll dig you right up."
"Goodbye cruel world," Erica said.
(Amphitheater)
Lamar stood on a stage with a small terrarium holding a snake.

"Sorry for trippin" Lamar apologized, "Snakes just freak me out."
"You can do it Lamar!" Caroline said. Lamar stared down the snake for a moment until it blinked. He screamed and backed away.
"It blinked!"
"Come on Lamar, you're an athlete that snake should be afraid of you!"
"But it's so slimy and scaly and slitherly."
"We are on a time limit you know," Chris added.
Lamar took a deep breath and picked up the snake. Making the overall score 3-1 in favor of the Gophers.

Allen sat by the spot Erica was buried. "You still alive in there?" he asked in the walkie. "Only three more minutes."
"And then you'll dig me up right?" Erica's voice responded back.
"Yep, i'm not going anywhere, I promise."
"I need a distraction, tell me a story. Why do you hate mimes so much?"
Allen signed and stood up. "My mom took me to this carnival once so I could see the elephants. I was stoked."
"Yeah"
"I was so busy watching them that I lost her for a minute. I called, but when I turned around all I could see was this white face with black lips pretending to be me. I screamed and tried to run, but every time I turned around there he was doing this creepy fake-run-and-scream routine." It was then that a white hand tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around, saw a mime, screamed, and ran: dropping the walkie as he did so.
"Allen?" Erica asked.
He ran past Chris and the others, and the host told him over the loudspeakers, "Just talk to him bro and ask him to go away. Okay we've got 2 minutes before Erica's done. Garry! You're up!"

"In the spirit of honesty," Garry snarked, "I guess i can tell everyone that i'm afraid of the Chuck E Cheese mascot"
Garry and Chris stood at the entrance of a striped tent. "Ok Garry," the host said. "All you have to do is go inside, sit there for the full show, get tickets after the show, take them and walk out. Walk not run. You got it?"
"Y-y-yeah" Garry said shakily
"Good, I gotta go set up the next challenge. Be right back."

Allen was still being chased by the mime when he saw the docks and got an idea.

Caleb added, "Going back to juvie,"

Caleb stood in front of a cell
"Just one hour and you're done," Chris said.
"T-that looks like an actual prison cell"
"It's okay if you can't do it," Brenda said.
"I'm sorry, I can't," Caleb said.
"No point for the Bass, wonder how Allen's doing?"

(Dock)
Allen ran full speed down the dock and jumped into the water. The mime followed him and looked ready to jump also, but Allen said, "Stop! Your makeup will run" The mime nodded sadly and walked away.
"Well done Allen, Chris told him. "You just earned another point for your team, it's now 4-1. Unfortunately I don't think things are going as smoothly for our buddy Caroline."

Erica - Caroline talked about being afraid of Tornadoes since she was a kid

Caroline was relaxing on the beach not far from where Erica was buried when he noticed it had gotten significantly darker. She looked up to see a Tornado touch the ground next to her, She screamed and ran away as the tornado followed her. She passed some of the campers who watched the sight.
She ran past where Erica was buried, who apparently had been buried for well past 5 minutes. Allen saw Chris messing with a controller and realized it was controlling the tornado Carolina was running from. "Can you make it to where the Tornado hits closer to her?" he asked the host.
"You are one sick dude," Chris said. "But yeah." He and the Host smiled as Caroline's scream got louder.
"That's awesome," Allen commented. "Do you ever feel like you've forgotten something?"
"Sometimes,' the host admitted, "I usually ignore it and the feeling goes away." He chuckled, "Watch this, I'm gonna make her think she's being zapped into an early grave.
"Grave? Oh crap Erica!"

(Garry's Challenge)
Garry walked out of the striped tent with wide eyes and carrying some tickets. The Score was now 5-1
Confessional
Brenda - It really doesn't matter to me if we lose, we have too many people on this team anyway. Since quite a few Bass have already failed I figured i'd ask for my stuff back now.
XXXXXXX
(Beach)
Allen and Chris frantically dog up Erica. "Erica," Allen said, "you did it."
"She's all right!" She's all right!" Chris announced. It was then Brenda walked up to Chris. "I want all my stuff back, give it now!"
"Brenda relax," Chris said as he gave her everything and she walked away. "The score is 6-1 with no signs of a comeback!

Jasmine shook in fear at the thought of going in a confined box.

"Ok," Jasmine said, "I hate confined spaces, like a lot.
She took a small step forward before backing away in fear again.
"Well," Chris said, "It's mathematically impossible for the Bass to catch up so the Gophers win the challenge!" The Gophers cheered and the Bass groaned. "So there you have it, The Gophers finally win something"

Evan - So many people didn't do they're challenge and I'm one of them. Hopefully my new alliance pulls through.
Christian - I mean this loss really doesn't matter much, but the fact that we got beat so bad is concerning.
Lamar - Thinks stinks! I'm the only one on this team who got a point. How is that even possible?
(Campfire Ceremony - Bass)
"There are only 2 marshmallows on this plate." Chris told Annie, Brenda and Faith. "The three of you all got votes, one of you is going home and can not return e-ever. The next name I'm gonna call…is….Faith!" She smiled and got up to claim her marshmallow. Brenda looked at Annie with a smirk. "The final marshmallow of the night goes to…Brenda"
Annie signed in defeat and walked off.
