Chapter Five: Not Quite Famous
Chris: Last time on Total Drama Island, the Screaming Gophers faced their second loss against the Killer Bass, though not before putting up one heck of a fight.
[footage of the dodgeball game is played, showing both sides making and taking hits]
There were bruises and risky moves on both sides of the field, and in the end, it was the small fry Tails who won the day for Killer Bass while the legendary hero Mao Mao got the boot.
[scenes of Tails' catch, the Killer Bass' victory, and Mao Mao's elimination are shown while the host is talking over them]
This week, another challenge will send one more camper on a cruise to Loserville, Population: Four.
[scene cuts to Chris standing on the docks]
Who will sink, and who will stay afloat? Find out right now on Total...Drama...Island!
(Fade to Opening Theme)
Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doin' fine;
You guys are on my mind!
Ya asked me what I wanted to be,
And now I think the answer is plain to see!
I wanna be...famous!
I wanna live close to the sun!
Well pack your bags, 'cause I've already won!
Everythin' to prove, nothin' in my way;
I'll get there one day.
'Cause I wanna be...famous!
(Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(Fade to Episode)
[the scene opens with a shot of the treetops against the morning sky, the camera panning down to show the two cabins. The shot cuts to inside the boys' side of the Bass cabin, showing Wolf, Fox, Robin, Prince John, Daffy, and Tails still fast asleep, then switches over to the girls' side of the Gopher cabin where Angelina, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Charlotte, and Usagi are slumbering]
[the scene shifts back outside, to a close-up of a seagull nesting in the horn of a loudspeaker. The brief sound of a siren sends it flying]
Loudspeaker: Alright, campers! Enough beauty sleep! Time to show us what you're made of!
[scene cuts to the inside of the bathroom where Wolf is about to step out of the shower when he hears voices coming from the other stalls]
Prince John: [off-screen] It's only natural that I look my best for the camera, I'm more than a worthy picture to have broadcast.
Daffy: [off-screen] Hah! You don't know the first thing about looking your best compared to me, I've been doing this for much longer than any of you combined.
Wolf: [under his breath] Oh, God, not this again…
Prince John: Oh, please, I'm sure the viewers want someone with more glitz and glamour to occupy their time than some stuffed turkey.
Daffy: So essentially, they wanted a broomstick who looks skinny enough to be a rail and sucks his thumb like he never got out of wearing diapers.
Prince John: I'll stick it in places you didn't know you had if you keep that lip up!
Daffy: Oh, no, the princess is gonna tear me limb from limb, whatever shall I do?!
Wolf: [off-screen] I'll tell you both what's gonna happen if you don't shut the hell up! [on-screen] You really think I wanna listen to your stupid bickering at this time of day? Can it before I come over there and wring your asses six ways to Sunday!
[the lupine huffs out of the shower as the lion and duck slowly creep their heads out behind the curtains in slight apprehension, before shooting each other a dirty look]
[static buzzing]
Wolf: If I sound pissed off, it's because I've been having to deal with the sound of those two quarreling for ages now, they never know when to shut up once they get started and it's driving me insane! Either they straighten up or I'll make them. [punches his fist in his palm]
[static buzzing]
[the footage skips ahead to a shot from behind the campers; they have assembled on team bleachers in front of a small outdoor stage while Chris and Chef are standing onstage]
Chris: Welcome to our brand new, deluxe, state-of-the-art, outdoor amphitheater! Okay, this week's challenge is a summer camp favorite! A talent contest!
Usagi: Ooooooh, a talent contest, I can't wait to perform!
Chris: Each team has eight hours to pick their three most talented campers. These three will represent them in the show tonight! Sing, dance, juggle, anything goes as long as it's legal!
[Katz and Top Cat look away upon hearing this, as do Wolf and Carmen]
You'll be judged by our resident talent scout, former DJ, VJ, and rap legend, Grand Master Chef! Who will show his approval via the Chef-o-meter!
[a picture of a wooden spoon appears on the top of the screen; the bowl holds a portrait of Chef, and set in the handle is the nine-sectioned meter that displays the score by lighting the appropriate number of sections green]
The team that loses will send one camper home tonight. Good luck!
Daffy: [clears throat] Since I have experience in this field, I suggest that I be the leader of this challenge.
Carmen: Knock yourself out, I guess.
Wolf: Please do.
[scene cuts to the front of the cabins as Katz stands in front of his team with a clipboard in hand]
Katz: Alright then, I'll be taking over as the talent scout for the team, if you have something to do that counts as a skill, don't be afraid to speak up. But make sure that you can do your stunt without mishap, given that we will be judged on precision.
Angelina: I'm one of the best ballet students in my class, so I'd like to propose my services to the show.
Usagi: Oh, I can dance, too, I am the daughter of Queen Serenity, so this should be a snap.
Katz: Hmm, I'd rather see which of you is the better dancer given that we can't have two of the same act as Chris didn't mention anything about pairs, whichever of you impresses more will be in the show. The same goes for the rest of you.
[scene cuts to the Killer Bass as they watch Ivy running from tree to tree before she does a summersault and lands perfectly on her feet, standing before her team with a bow]
Daffy: Eh, it's alright, for a warmup act.
Ivy: Really, I'd like to see you try to copy my level of gymnastics.
Daffy: Honey, I've done more risque things in the past compared to that, I've even evaded death.
Ivy: Is that supposed to be your talent, Mr. Talent Scout?
Daffy: Oh, no, what I've got in store is a surprise that'll sweep you all off your feet.
Ivy: [rolls her eyes] Yeah, sure, whatever you say.
[scene cuts back to the Gophers as Angelina is shown performing a traditional ballet against a radio playing the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Thus far, the members of her team appear to be impressed with her performance. Usagi is then seen dancing next to her, doing a ribbon twirl, though her performance is less coordinated than the mouse in pink. Angelina finishes her act graciously as the music finishes]
Katz: Okay then, I believe I've reached a decision for who will be one of our acts; Angelina has shown clear capability of her ballet skills so she has my vote, any objections?
[no one raises an objection]
Angelina: Thank you, I'll make sure to dazzle the audience with a grandoise performance for tonight.
Usagi: Uh, what about me?
Katz: Your coordination is off, you missed several steps, and your ribbon twirling needs work…[halts as he tries to sound more 'polite']...but, it was a decent effort, I will grant you that…
Usagi: [groans] Why can't being related to a queen of the moon have her skills come naturally to me?
Angelina: [comes up alongside Usagi] You know, with a bit of practice, you could ace ballet as well as I can.
Usagi: [blushes] Awww, thanks, Angelina.
[scene cuts to the Bass watching at Robin standing several yards away from three targets. The red fox positions his bow and arrow accordingly and then quickly shoots three arrows, one after another, landing the bullseye for each target. He is given a small round of applause for his display]
Daffy: Hmmmm, okay, I'll admit, not everyone can fire three bullseyes on the dot like that, Robin, you're in.
Robin: Much appreciated, my good man, I'll be sure not to disappoint for tonight.
Daffy: Yeah, yeah, you just make sure of that.
[scene cuts back to the Gophers where Rainbow Dash is rocking out on an electric guitar]
Rainbow Dash: Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
[the pegasus finishes her performance with a grandiose bow, her teammates having various reactions to the song]
Rainbow Dash: So, tell me, do I know how to rock or do I know how to rock?
Angelina: Wow, modest, aren't you?
Usagi: Well, I thought it was nice, I didn't know you knew how to guitar, Dash.
Rainbow Dash: Yeah, I'm pretty slick when it comes to this baby right here, nothing much to it besides knowing how to rock!
Rarity: I do think that Rainbow Dash has a shot of making good at the show, from what I've seen at least.
Katz: [sighs] Alright, she's officially in, that's two acts down at least.
[scene cuts back to the Killer Bass as Carmen is standing in front of a tall red box]
Daffy: You know, for a world famous thief, I'd have thought you'd be doing something a little more grande than simple magic tricks.
Carmen: That's because you haven't seen my version of them. Allow me to give you all a demonstration.
[Carmen steps inside of the box that is suddenly encased in a thick smokescreen. When the smoke clears, the box is still there]
Daffy: That's it? Seriously? [goes up to the door] Well, I guess we all can't be...bangers…?
[the duck finds that the box is completely empty]
Carmen: [off-screen] Look a little to your left! [on-screen, standing on the branch of a tree] How's that for a trick?
Wolf: Hot damn, that woman's crafty.
Robin: I've got to learn how to try that.
Ivy: Wow, that's...actually quite impressive…
Daffy: I...okay, you got me there, I suppose we can make room for Carmen's...thing...
[scene cuts back to the Gophers as Yogi is twirling a set of batons, both of which have been lit ablaze. The shot zooms out to show his team sitting on picnic tables behind him, then focuses on Angelina, Katz, and Rarity as the bear swings a baton too close for their comfort]
Rarity: Uh, darling, are you sure that's safe?
Yogi: Not to worry, miss, I'm more coordinated than the average bear as demonstrated.
[Yogi throws his batons into the air, but his aim is off and the batons spiral out of control]
Rarity: Hit the deck!
[most of the Gophers duck behind the tables to avoid getting hit. Applejack manages to catch one of the batons in her hand, but the other one lands in a bush, setting it on fire]
Rainbow Dash: I'm on it! [rushes into the bathroom and comes out with a fire extinguisher to put out the flaming bush]
Katz: [glares at Yogi] More coordinated, eh?
Yogi: [rubs the back of his head] Well, hehe, you can't always get 'im right.
Angelina: You could have burned one of us with your carelessness!
Yogi: Gee, I'm sorry about that.
Katz: [sighs] I guess I know which of us won't be performing.
[scene cuts to the Bass with Aquamarine standing confidently in front of her teammates]
Aquamarine: I'm going to demonstrate to you all about the power this wand of mine has in terms of levitation. Observe.
[the blue gem flicks her wand up and tases a nearby bucket of water. With one eye open, she lives the actual water out of the bucket and twirls it about in the air, passing in between her teammates and even the wildlife]
You see, I'm not only able to lift up phsyical beings, I can also leviate aspects of the environments with a simple flick of the wrist. It's essentially the more practical version of what you all refer to as 'juggling'.
[static buzzing]
Aquamarine: Having a wand like this really instills the sense of power you have, really shows just what I'm capable of.
[static buzzing]
Daffy: Okay, that might be impressive if you were a monkey, but I highly doubt it's gonna dazzle Chef in your current state.
[Aquamarine scowls at this and drops the power from her wand, causing the water to fall on Daffy, and those standing close to him]
[static buzzing]
Aquamarine: That condescending little pigeon, he is so going to regret it.
[static buzzing]
Daffy: What do these suckers want, high praise for the bare minimum, I've been in my fair share of acting to know that it is really hard to impress unless you look and do something unique. And I had to work my ass off to impress a fair few ungrateful crowds.
[static buzzing]
Carmen: Why don't we all take five, stretch up a little bit before we make any more decisions?
Daffy: Hey, hey, hey, I'm the one calling the shots on that.
Prince John: Well, I object, so I say we shall 'take five' if you don't mind.
Daffy: I don't like your tone, mister.
Prince John: Aww, well, that's just your bad luck, isn't it, peasant?
[Daffy and Prince John get up in each other's faces, glaring each other down]
Wolf: [with two fingers between his eyes] I just, I can't take this, I'm not losing a vessel watching this, you two...do whatever…[walks away]
[static buzzing]
Prince John: I don't know where that duck got the idea thinking he has the right to boss us around. That's supposed to be my job, I've got to find a way to take it from him, but how?
[static buzzing]
[Prince John walks toward the forest when he notices something sticking out from behind the bushes]
Prince John: What on earth…?
[he quietly approaches behind the trees to notice Katz crouching behind the bush. His expression turns suspicious as he approaches the red feline]
Prince John: And just what do you think you're doing?
Katz: [raises a brow as he looks to his right] Pardon?
Prince John: Spying on us, I see? I should expose you right here and now.
Katz: And just what good would that do you when I have valuable information that just might be useful?
Prince John: Oh, please, as if I'm going to fall for that old excuse.
Katz: Fine, then you won't want to hear about how you can get that duck out of the picture.
Prince John: [pauses before continuing cautiously] Go on…
Katz: You see, it's clear that Daffy is in a position where he believes to be in control of the team, given how pompously he's been judging as the scout while not revealing just what his talent is. In the case that something should...go wrong, or his act is not up to par with what he advertised, it will open the door for you to knock him off his pedestal and assume command.
Prince John: I see...well, I do like the sound of that...both parts...if what you're saying is true, then I just might see fit to reward you handsomely...if not, then you shall suffer the consequences.
Katz: I understand completely and wish you luck on your goal.
Prince John: Appreciated, but I don't need luck, I've already got an ace up my sleeve. [walks away with a satisfied smirk]
[static buzzing]
Prince John: Looks like I might have just found the ticket to rid Daffy off the team in case he screws up, glad I thought of it.
[static buzzing]
Katz: Why did I make an agreement with Prince John of all people? It's simple, really; he's egotistical, spineless, and another vote to secure should both of us make it far. If his goal is a success, he'll owe me for it. If it doesn't, it's no great loss to me, I already have the majority on my side.
[static buzzing]
[the scene cuts to the Killer Bass waiting on stage; Wolf is playing cards on a few crates with Carmen, Robin, and Ivy, Prince John is meticulously examining himself with a mirror, and Daffy is warming up with a few stretches. It then cuts to the Screaming Gophers on another part of the stage as Angelina is practicing her ballet, Rainbow Dash is tuning her guitar, and Usagi is playing jacks with Charlotte, Rarity, and Top Cat]
Usagi: Hey, Angelina, do you have a favorite ballet?
Angelina: I would say one of my favorites would have to be when I performed Sleeping Beauty for the queen, alongside her daughters.
Usagi: Wow, that's so cool! I wish I could perform like that, I'd just love to wear a pretty dress and dance along the stage in a gracious manner, it's everything a girl could ever dream of.
Angelina: Well, I did say I'd be willing to show you a few steps if you want to.
Usagi: [stands up] Okay! [rushes up to the mouse] Show me what you've got.
Angelina: Okay then, first lift your leg up. [raises her left leg back as Usagi mimics] Then, turn and stretch. [turns to her left and points her leg out several times, to which Usagi tries to copy] Now spin on one leg. [slowly spins around and Usagi does the same thing, only she spins too quickly and ends up like a top]
Usagi: [when she finally stops, her eyes rolling about] Euuuuugghhhhh, why's everything spinning…?
[Usagi's dizziness causes her to fall back into the rope of a stagelight, getting her tangled up in it. She tries to loosen herself from it, but the light above also starts to become loose until the rope starts pulling quickly. Angelina gasps as the light begins to fall towards the stage, close to where she is. Usagi is only just quick enough out of panic to grab hold of the rope as Angelina jumps out of the way before being possibly hit, the light stopping just a few inches from what would have been her head]
Angelina: Oh, dear lord!
Usagi: Oh my God, Angelina, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to!
Rarity: [rushes to help Angelina up from the floor] Are you two alright, that was a nasty shock.
Angelina: Y-Yes, I'm fine...just a little shaken is all…
Usagi: [groans] That was only too close for comfort…[plops onto the floor]
[static buzzing]
Angelina: I could have very well chewed out Usagi for nearly impaling me with a stagelight, but it just didn't seem right at the time, and she did prevent it as I moved out of the way.
[static buzzing]
Usagi: [sighs] Maybe I should just steer clear away from dancing of any kind…
[static buzzing]
[the presence of Angelina, Rarity, and Katz preparing backstage with Carmen and Robin indicates that the footage has skipped ahead to shortly before the competition. Daffy appears from stage right, a lavender sheet draped around his shoulders which hides most of his body. He struts confidently past the other campers, earning most of their attention and a variety of looks]
Daffy: I hope you're all ready to lose because the main attraction has arrived.
[static buzzing]
Daffy: I'll be sure to wipe the floor with everyone tonight, they haven't seen anything from Daffy Duck.
[static buzzing]
[the static cuts to a spinning background of orange and yellow rays, upon which the Killer Bass and Screaming Gopher logos rotate into view in the middle of the screen]
Chris: [voice over] IIIIIIIIIIIIT'S the TDI Talent Extravaganza!
[the facing logos back away from each other before colliding in a shower of stars. The camera cuts to a distance shot of the host on-stage; night has fallen and the non-competing campers can be seen watching in the stands]
Chris: Welcome to the very first Camp Wawanakwa Talent Contest, where six campers will showcase their mad skills, and desperately try not to humiliate themselves. First up for the Killer Bass is Robin!
[a brief cut is shown of the Bass applauding and cheering their teammate before the focus shifts to the stage]
[Robin takes a bow as he walks onto the stage, before him to the left are now five targets as opposed to three. The vulpine waits for the applause to subside before he aims his arrow carefully on the bow. Several split screens follow showcasing each of Robin's arrows making the target right in the center. This results in another set of cheers from the Killer Bass]
[static buzzing]
Robin: It takes years of practice and precision to be as experienced as I am when it comes to archery. Lucky that it came in handy in a contest needing to impress.
[static buzzing]
Chris: Okay, dude, those were some pretty awesome moves, and it looks like I'm not the only one who thought so!
[the host puts his arm around the archer's shoulder as the 'Chef-o-meter' appears on the top of the screen, the first eight sections filling with green and dinging. Once again, the Bass are shown cheering]
Chris: First up for the Screaming Gophers; make some noise for Angelina!
[Angelina steps onto the stage and takes a courteous bow. She then snaps her fingers as the "Candy Cane" section of The Nutcracker begins to play. As such, the mouse dances in accordance with the piece, leaving some of the crowd surprised that she would choose such a grandiose piece to perform, but the girl in pink is unfazed as she finishes her performance with grace, resulting in her teammates cheering her on]
[static buzzing]
Angelina: I could have gone with something more dainty, but given this was Chef we're talking about, I needed to do something more...aggressive, so to speak.
[static buzzing]
Chris: Not bad for a ballerina, I'll say that, but what does Grandmaster Chef think? [raises his arm and the Chef-o-meter appeared once more, registering a close seven] Oooooh, only just short of Robin. I'll give ya' this, you subverted his expectations.
Angelina: I suppose a seven is better than nothing in that regard.
Chris: So, with two down and four acts to go, the Killer Bass are holding the lead, if only by a margin. Next on stage; Carmen!
[the woman in red rolls the box onto the stage]
Yogi: Huh, thought she'd be doing something more extravagant…
Carmen: You might think that this is just a simple magic trick, but what you don't know is that you haven't seen my version of it…[steps into the box, and the same smokescreen from before happens again. The door opens to reveal that Carmen is gone, only for a yelp off-screen to be heard]
Chris: I take it by that reaction Chef's found Carmen. Let's see what he has to say on the score.
[the Chef-o-meter shows a score of nine as Carmen walks back onto the stage]
YOOOOO! Carmen's killin' for the Killer Bass, they're now way up!
[the Killer Bass cheer for this, even Ivy gives a slightly impressed applause]
[static buzzing]
Carmen: It's no surprise, really. I'm simply the best at what I do, plus, a magician never reveals her secrets.
[static buzzing]
Chris: Three down, three to go, can the Screaming Gophers make a comeback to the Killer Bass' score? Let's hear it for Rainbow Dash!
[the pegasus proudly makes it onto the stage, carrying her guitar]
Rainbow Dash: This one goes out to yours truly!
[Rainbow Dash starts up the tune with an electrifying solo]
Yeah, you see me ridin' on a sonic boom,
Got my guitar shreddin' up the latest tune!
There is nothing you can do to beat me,
I'm so good that that you can't beat me!
Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
Step aside now, you're just gettin' in ma' way,
I've got sick chops you can never hope to play!
When it comes to makin' music, I'm the ruler,
You just wish you could be 20% cooler!
Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
I'm awesome, take caution!
Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!
[the tune ends with a single guitar riff]
Chris: Ya' know, I didn't think it was possible to sing an ego trip more than myself, but it seems Chef agrees.
[the Chef-o-meter gives out a mere four]
Rainbow Dash: Awwww, what? That performance was worth at least four more points! Not cool, man! [huffs off the stage]
Chris: Looks like the Gophers are still lagging behind the Bass. We'll take a quick break, and then see how our last two contestants fare!
[a simple black-and-white animation of a man ironing a shirt, and his hand, in front of an old television set was shown as a means of transition]
[static buzzing]
Rainbow Dash: A four out of ten? For the performance I gave? Pfft, that Chef just has no taste for good music.
[static buzzing]
[the clashing logos animation plays again]
Chris: Welcome back to the TDI Talent Extravaganza! When we last left off, the Killer Bass had the advantage over the Screaming Gophers. It's up to our last two competitors to score higher than their teammates did, so, without further delay, here he is for the Bass, Daffy!
[the stage becomes dark as a single spotlight shines on the curtains before unveiling Daffy hidden by a cape and a gentle piano accompaniment]
Daffy: I've seen many a thing in my years, from black and white to color TV
But there's something deep inside, something cased within yours truly
I've seen them come and go, and few really get to stay
But now it's time to show you how we did things in the old-fashioned way…
[the gentle melody is replaced with a grandiose tune, Daffy's outfit changing into a zoot suit with a stylish pompadour]
We would sing, and we would dance!
We'd touch the sky with our own two hands!
We'd say to the world what we would be,
In front of the theater for all to see!
We'd dance, dance and sing,
We'd show them all what we could bring!
I could jump on the moon, I could play the bassoon
I could fly a balloon, I could be a model for June!
Like a flapper on the fling, like a rosebud in the spring,
Like a puppet with no string, like the world's richest king!
Like the most precious diamond ring!
[the avian pulls out two flaming batons from seemingly nowhere]
Yogi: Hey, that was my act!
[Daffy throws the batons into the air with no hesitation whatsoever]
Daffy: I wanna be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-
Wolf: Daffy, you're on fire!
Daffy: Thank you, thank you, I know!
Ivy: No, seriously, you're on fire!
Daffy: Huh? [looks back to see his tail feathers, and part of the stage, ablaze] AAAAAHHHHHHH! [begins to panic across the stage in his classic, crazy manner with the sounds of a firetruck randomly playing until he falls off the stage]
Chris: [with a fire extinguisher in hand] Clean up on aisle nine, Daffy's set the stage in flames!
[the Chef-o-meter gives the performance a mere two]
Chris: Yikes, talk about a drawback for the Killer Bass. Well then, it's down to the final act of the night. Can Katz do better than Daffy? I certainly hope so. Can he do well enough to win for his team? Let's find out!
[static buzzing]
Daffy: A slight mishap with that last one, you could say, hehe, heeeee…
[static buzzing]
[scene cuts to Katz casually walking up onto the stage, the charred bits of the stage seemingly adding to the atmosphere as the stage light shines down on him, clearing his throat before talking]
Katz: Of Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal taste
Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
With the loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
Sing Heav'nly Muse, that on the secret top
Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed,
In the Beginning how the Heav'ns and Earth
Rose out of Chaos: or if Sion Hill
Delight thee more, and Siloa's brook that flowed
Fast by the Oracle of God; I thence
Invoke thy aid to my adventurous song,
That with no middle flight intends to soar
Above the Aonian Mount, while it pursues
Things unattempted yet in Prose or Rhime.
And chiefly Thou, O Spirit, that dost prefer
Before all temples the upright heart and pure,
Instruct me, for Thou knowest; Thou from the first
Wast present, and with mighty wings outspread
Dove-like satst brooding on the vast Abyss
And madest it pregnant: What in me is dark
Illumin, what is low raise and support;
That to the highth of this great Argument
I may assert Eternal Providence,
And justify the ways of God to men.
[scene cuts to the Gophers being silent...before they erupt into cheering, even the Killer Bass appear to be unable to hold back a round of applause]
Chris: That was some unexpected, yet deep poetry, but Grandmaster Chef seems to approve!
[the Chef-o-meter displays a full ten as Angelina and Usagi emerge from their seats to congratulate their teammate with the other Gophers swarming the stage]
We have a winner! Despite their efforts, the Killer Bass have been trampled by the Screaming Gophers!
Rarity: That was marvelous, darling!
Usagi: It was incredible!
Angelina: Simply brilliant!
Chris: And as for the Killer Bass, pick your favorite loser, and I'll see you at the bonfire.
[static buzzing]
Katz: It may come as a surprise to people that I have the know-how in poetry, but I say that's because you haven't seen that side of me, until now that is. And it appears I've done both jobs for myself and Prince John.
[static buzzing]
[scene cuts to the elimination ceremony]
Chris: Kudos to you all for an incredible night of entertainment! Stunts, drama, and some wicked wipe-outs! But now, it's time for the marshmallows...Robin! Carmen!
[the red fox and the woman in red walk up to claim their prizes]
Ivy...Wolf...Fox!
[the aforementioned three stand up one by one to pick up a marshmallow]
Aquamarine...Jasper...Tails!
[the three having their names called up step up to claim their respective treat]
Campers...there is only one marshmallow left on this plate.
[Daffy and Prince John glower at each other]
Prince John, you may have done absolutely nothing of value during this whole challenge, not that the others knew of, but Daffy, your weird spectacle ended up in a trashfire, after all you'd hyped up about it. Which is why the final marshmallow goes to…

Prince John: Hah! [haughtily steps up to claim the marshmallow]
Daffy: WHAT?! You all booted me over him?! What's wrong with you?!
Wolf: Hey, as long as I don't have to hear you two bitching, I don't care which of you leaves.
Carmen: I couldn't have put it better myself.
Prince John: You heard them, you're done, duck. [plops the marshmallow in his mouth]
Daffy: You know what, fine, be that way, just to let you know, this show just got 20% less talent up in it!
Rainbow Dash: [off-screen] Hey, that's my phrase!
Daffy: No one cares! [huffs off to the Dock of Shame]
[static buzzing]
Prince John: Daffy failing his act, plus the majority against him, equals the best day of my life...well, second best perhaps, you all know what would make it the best day, hmmhmmhmm, yeeeees…
[static buzzing]
[scene cuts to Prince John about to enter the males' side of the Bass cabin, a pompous strut in his step]
Prince John: There's only room for one star on this team, and that is moi. [winks at the camera before heading inside]
(Fade to Credits)
