-Last time, on Total Drama Island!- Chris started the recap of the previous episode while the camera showed various scenes that unfolded then.- Twenty-Four campers have signed up to spend eight weeks right here at this crummy old summer camp, then have to face the judgment of their fellow campers!- Chris ended as the camera showed one last clip from the end of the previous episode.

-What do you think they'll make us do, Jasmine?- Beth asked as she turned towards the Outback Survivalist.

-Probably something easy. It's our first day, after all.- She commented with a shrug.

The camera then showed all campers, standing at the top of the cliff's edge, all wearing their swimsuits, and looking over the edge. The camera then zoomed back twice, with each zoom revealing a bigger amount of the cliff's true height, which turned out to be the tallest place in the area, nearly reaching the clouds.

-Oh $#$#!- Beardo finally said his first words on the show as the screen went black.


OPENING INTRO

The camera showed the top of a few tall pine trees as a spotlight appeared from the bottom of the screen and stopped in the middle as it turned on. Then the camera showed the spotlight swinging down as it turned on as well. Then the camera showed a small camera popping out of the single den in the ground with a single, brown gopher on top of it. And the last camera showed up from the tree hollow, with a squirrel and various nuts being thrown away from inside the hollow. Finally the clapboard appeared from the left and as soon as it stopped clamping down the camera showed the entire island and after that the camera was sent flying towards it. The camera passed the sign displaying "Camp Wawanakwa", both cabins.

Dear Mom and Dad I'm doing fine,

The camera then flew next to Chris McLean sitting in the director's chair and drinking coffee. Then the camera was shown flying through the trees, quickly reaching the top of the hill until it stopped after it showed the ring of buoys all the way down in the water.

You guys are on my mind

The camera then quickly flew into the ring and underwater and revealed Shawn who was currently in the middle of fighting off piranhas away from himself.

You ask me what I wanted to be

The camera started going upwards until it finally emerged from the water and showed both Geoff and Noah as they both talked casually with each other while floating on the surfboard. Geoff was obviously more excited about everything than his partner, while Noah was having his arms crossed and was pouting about something.

And now I think the answer is plain to see

The camera then shows a dead piranha emerging from the water, having startled the two boys, but it was soon being taken away by a bald eagle. The Eagle was then shown flying high into the sky when it finally reached the point in the sky just in front of the sun and dropped the fish.

I wanna be famous

The camera then showed the fish starting to fall from the sky. The camera then went downwards, into the middle of the woods and showed Ella sitting on the rock and singing to the animals who were situated next to her, and who were listening to her. Then the fish from earlier had fallen right on the ground in front of her, causing the nearby animals to jump at her and start biting onto her limbs, while she ran away in pain. The camera then moved more to the front and showed both Duncan and Sugar, who were observing the entire situation and started laughing at Ella's misfortune.

I wanna live close to the Sun

The camera then showed the top of the waterfall and showed Amy and Samey who were floating down the river in an inflatable raft. They both are currently slap-fighting and when Amy finally noticed the waterfall, it was too late and both of the girls screamed as they went over the edge.

Pack your bags 'cause I've already won

The camera then moved down and showed Beardo doing push-ups on the broken log, suspended across two rocks at the bottom of the falls, with Sky sitting on his back with a proud smirk forming on her face as he managed to do another push-up. They were too busy to notice the girls falling down the waterfall behind them. Their eyes widened though, when suddenly Ezekiel out of all people was shown swinging down the rope just in front of them, from the right side of the screen to the left. He was visibly happy and was filled with adrenaline.

Everything to prove nothing in my way

The camera then moves towards the confessional toilet as Ezekiel eventually slammed into it, causing Cameron who was currently inside of it to fly out of the door, with visible confusion on his face. The camera then moved left and showed the window of a main lodge with the silhouette of Chef visible in it.

I'll get there one day

The camera then moved inside the room and showed Chef Hatchet looking for something with a smirk inside the pot of some greenish soup-like thing. Chef then looks to the left and the camera reveals that both Heather and Jasmine, who were currently tied with ropes, were sitting at the table next to Chef with looks of fright on their faces.

'Cause I wanna be famous

The camera then moved to the left and showed 'Mike' and Scarlett sitting not too far from them. Both of them were in the middle of arguing about something very important, the former throwing his hands in the air in anger and the latter blackmailing the boy with some video tape. The camera then went outside to the beach and showed both Lindsay and Beth, sitting on the stairs leading to the beach and looking forward and joking together about something they were seeing. The camera then went forwards and revealed that the girls were looking at a particular boy

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

The boy turned out to be Leonard, who was currently trying to cast a spell on a goat, which in the return bumped its head right into his kiwis, causing the LARPer to groan and kneel in pain. The camera then moved to the water where a bird was floating on the surface when suddenly a fish jumped out of the water, followed by the shark that ate that said fish, came back to the water, while the bird was taken by the pink tentacle.

I wanna be

I wanna be

I wanna be famous

Then before the camera appeared an ivory-skinned hand which stole the camera further into the end of the docks. The camera then reveals that the person that stole it was Topher who wanted more spotlight for himself. He then started posing and acting in various scenes from well-known plays until a splash of water landed on him causing him to look really annoyed.

I wanna be

I wanna be

I wanna be famous

The camera then moved upwards and revealed that the person who spilled the water on Topher was Chris McLean who was currently in his jetpack and was having a really angry face. He then dropped the bucket. He then flies off leaving flames behind him. The camera soon revealed that the remaining flames were coming from the campfire.

Then the camera moved downwards and revealed Sam and Dakota, sitting at the campfire and leaning towards each other with blushes on their faces and obvious attraction towards each other when suddenly they got stopped by Sugar, who popped out between the two guys and forced them into a friendly hug by throwing her arms around their shoulders, while the two campers looked away, surprised by the sudden appearance of the Pageant Queen. The camera then moved back and zoomed on the whole campfire revealing the rest of the contestants sitting at the campfire and whistling together. They were all looking happy and cheerful. The camera then zoomed even more back and revealed a sign saying "Total Drama Island" at the entrance to the campfire.

OPENING INTRO


The camera once again showed the view of an entire cliff before quickly changing to the shot of every contestant watching over the edge of the cliff, with all of them already wearing their swimsuits.

-Okay!- Chris, who was currently standing in front of everyone and next to the crate with a picture of a chicken on it, got all of the campers attention towards him and started explaining the challenge.

-Today's challenge is a threefold!- The host announced happily.- Your first task is to jump off this one-thousand-foot high cliff into the lake!- Chris revealed with a smile on his face.

-It doesn't sound so bad.- Sky commented with a smile.

-Maybe for you. I don't know about myself.- Sam replied, slightly shivering in fear.

-If you look down, you will see two target areas.- Chris continued as the camera showed a view of the water, particularly two areas formed by the buoys placed at the surface of the water, a larger semi-circle and a small circle inside the former, from the point of view of the contestants on the top of the cliff.

-The wider area represents the part of the lake that we have stocked with psychotic, man-eating sharks!- Chris announced and started chuckling as the camera panned to the bottom of the cliff and showed three dorsal fins circling around at the surface before one of the sharks jumped into the air from right to left and back again.

-Inside that area is a safe zone, that's your target area which we're pretty sure is shark-free!- Chris announced and then continued to chuckle.

-What do you mean by "pretty sure"?!- Shawn asked with his eyes widened.

-You are not implyin' that a few sharks might've actually gotten into the safe zone, are you?- Jasmine questioned the host, looking slightly startled by the fact that he wasn't responding to this.

-For each member of your team that jumps and actually...survives, there will be a crate of supplies waiting below.- Chris explained further as the camera showed the crates already waiting at the beach next to the bottom of the cliff.- Inside each crate, are supplies that you'll need for the second part of the challenge...building a hot tub!- Chris announced as the camera showed an already built hot tub as an example.

-The team with the best ones gets to have a wicked hot tub party tonight!- Chris announced with a grin on his face before the camera changed to the view of a pair of suitcases left alone on the edge of the dock at sunset.

-The losers will be sending someone home for the first time.-Chris said with a little bit of sadness when suddenly the right suitcase opened and a pair of green eyes could be seen in the dark of the suitcase's inside.

-Let's see...Killer Bass! You're up first!- Chris announced as the camera focused on him once again.

-Umm…isn't the jump from 1000 feet considered quite…deadly?- Samey questioned, quite scared by the idea of jumping, as she was shown looking over the edge of the cliff.

-Oh, please. It is quite obvious that Chris is exaggerating when it comes to the actual height of this cliff.- Scarlett stated as she placed a hand on her glasses.- My best guess for the actual height of the cliff would be around 20 meters, so around 65 feet.

-It looks like it's a lot higher though.- Sam commented as he looked over the edge of the cliff.

-Optical illusion.- Scarlett simply replied.- The idea of a jump makes you nervous and nauseous and so the brain exaggerates the distance between the top of this cliff and the water.- Scarlett explained as simplistically as she could to her teammates.

-If you're so smart then why don't you jump off first?- Duncan taunted the brainiac.

-Ugh…Fine.- Scarlett groaned in annoyance as she glared at Duncan.- It's not like it's a big deal. After all, I could only be eaten alive by a handful of Selachimorphas.- Scarlett commented and soon after she took a big dive and started falling off the cliff. The camera slowly followed her movement and soon showed her landing in the safe zone, waving to the others after she emerged from the water.

The camera then moved back to the top where Sky, Geoff and Shawn were observing the entire situation from the edge of the cliff.

-Okay, guess I'm next.- Shawn gulped, before taking a few steps backwards in order to do a run-up towards the edge of the cliff. He then jumped off the cliff and after a few seconds a splash of water could be heard from the bottom of the cliff.

-Um, actually, I have to go back to the cabin real quick.- Leonard said as he took several steps away from the edge of the cliff.- I forgot to take my spell book with me and I need it to get some flying and water breathing spells for myself.- He added before turning around and promptly bumping into Duncan

-You know what, you little gremlin? I'd really like to have that hot tub so how about I'll motivate you to jump in my own way?- Duncan told Leonard and banged his fists as if to threaten the other boy, who gulped in response.

Few seconds later the camera showed Leonard falling off the cliff and screaming for his life, probably having been thrown off it by Duncan.

The camera then showed Scarlett and Shawn observing the entire situation from the boat at the bottom of the cliff as their gazes were following Leonard during his fall until finally a loud thump could be heard everywhere.

-Oh, that must've hurt.- Shawn commented as the camera revealed that Leonard had hit one of the buoys and was currently moaning from pain.

-HP…decreases.- Leonard commented quietly, obviously overcome by pain, as he slowly slid from the top of the buoy into the water.

The camera then showed Geoff, in the middle of falling off the cliff, as he was yelling with excitement and throwing his hands into the air.

He was then soon followed by Duncan, whose arms were crossed and who had a dull and uninterested look on his face and he was not even in the usual diving position, instead falling with his feet down.

The camera shortly after that display returned to the top of the cliff and focused on Dakota, who was currently overcome by fear.

-Yeah, there is like, no way I'll do it.- Dakota said, clearly overcome by fear.- It's way too dangerous. I can't risk my natural beauty just like that.- Dakota explained while a few of her teammates glared at her.

-What?- Dakota questioned them.- Like the other team would do this!- Dakota commented.

-Are you sure that you won't jump, Dakota?- Chris questioned her.

-Um…yeah!- Dakota replied.

-Oh, well, unfortunately for you that makes you a chicken.- Chris exclaimed as he approached the Fame-Monger.- So you'll have to wear this for the rest of the day.- Chris explained as he put the chicken hat on top of Dakota's head.

-What?! It's, like, so not fair!- Dakota complained, clearly not happy with that decision, to which Chris replied by making chicken sounds.

-That means the chicken path is that-a-way!- Chris announced as he pointed behind him and soon after we got the shot of Dakota walking towards the top of an escalator with her arms crossed.

Beardo was then shown commenting on the whole situation by making a bunch of chicken sounds.

-Hey, man! Not cool!- Sam told Beardo and pointed accusicantly at him.- How would you feel if someone made fun of you for not jumping?- Sam questioned him, to which Beardo replied by making the sound of a Pacman game over sequence.

-That's what I thought.- Sam replied and crossed his arms, before approaching the edge of the dock himself.

-Okay, Sam. Just imagine it's one of those skydiving games you played last summer! Nothing bad can happen to you!- Sam yelled at himself before jumping off the cliff. He then started yelling from excitement…right before he hit protruding rock halfway down which sent him spinning around until he landed in the safe zone.

The camera then showed the members of the Killer Bass that have jumped already, waiting on the beach nearby and cheering for Sam as he landed in the safe zone and gave them a thumbs up.

The camera then turned towards Amy, Samey and Sky who were standing together.

-C'mon girls, you can do it!- Sky motivated both girls to jump.

-As if! There is no way I'll do it until Samey does it and check if it's safe for me!- Amy explained with her arms crossed while Samey groaned in annoyance.

-Why do I have to check if it's safe for you?! A lot of people jumped off already so it's obviously safe!- Samey yelled at her sister, causing her to gasp.

-How dare you raise your voice against me?!- Amy yelled at her.- Did the height already mess up with your brain?!

-Oh! You will so get it!- Samey yelled and just as she was about to jump at Amy, Sky grabbed her shoulder and pulled her away.

-Samey, calm down.- Sky whispered to her.- Nothing will come out of this if you two just continue to argue like that.

-I know! But she is just so frustrating!- Samey complained while grabbing her head.- It's always "Samey do that!", "Samey don't do that!". When will I finally get the chance to do something I want?!

-Samey, trust me. You will get that chance, but for now we need to win this challenge.- Sky explained.- We're already at a disadvantage because Dakota refused to jump and it looks like Amy will do the same. We need every jumper that we can get. So prove that you are better than Amy at something and jump first. What do you think about it?

-You're right!- Samey agreed with the Athlete.- When others see that I was the one to jump first, they'll for sure understand just how fake Amy really is! Thanks, Sky!- Samey thanked her new friend, before running towards the edge of the cliff.


Confessional-Sky

-My sister was always telling me that I always make exceptional motivational speeches. And just look at that. I managed to make Samey jump. I just really hope that whatever she and Amy have going around them resolves quickly. Arguments and hate among teammates can really bring the morale of our team down. And I can't allow my team to lose!


The camera then showed the safe zone, as Samey landed perfectly in the middle of it.

-Oh em gee, I did it!- Samey cheered as she emerged from the water.- Take that, Amy!

-Break my fall!- Amy's voice suddenly could be heard from above Samey.

-What?- Samey asked with a confused look on her face, when suddenly Amy landed right on top of her.

-Oops…sorry.- Amy mumbled out her apology, although she didn't sound very sorry at all, while Samey groaned in pain as she emerged from the water once more.

-Finally!- Sky said from the top of the cliff and jumped soon after them, also hitting the center zone with a happy look on her face.

The camera then focused on Chris as he looked through the list he was holding.

-Okay. So let's tally up the results.- Chris said before noticing something.- Hold on, that's nine jumpers and one chicken. We're missing one.- Chris revealed when suddenly the sounds of someone falling from the cliff, hitting the water, and said water splashing away could be heard in the distance.

And then the camera revealed that those sounds were made by Beardo, who was currently lying on the grass and chilling.

-Um, Beardo? There is a challenge going on, so um, will you jump or not?- Chris asked the Human Soundboard, which caused Beardo's eyes to widen in fear and he looked over the edge of the cliff and gulped in fear.

-Huh, who would've guessed? The guy who made fun of someone being a chicken, is a chicken himself.- Chris commented, to which Beardo sighed in defeat.

-Can you at least give a proper reason for why you are not jumping?- Chris asked him.- You know…since this might cost your team the win which will cause them to hate you in return.

Beardo then replied to Chris by making falling sounds, followed by the sounds of a bone cracking.

-Oh, I see…you broke some bone of yours in the past, doing something similar.- Chris commented.- Well, you better pray that you're team is sympathetic to that then.- Chris added before putting the chicken hat on top of Beardo's big hair.

-Okay, so that's nine jumpers and two chickens.- Chris tallied up the final results of the Killer Bass as Beardo went towards the escalator.- Screaming Gophers, if you can beat that, we'll throw in a pull cart to put your crates on! But if you don't even match their result then the carts will be given to the Killer Bass.- Chris explained as the camera showcased the reward in the form of the wooden pull carts.

-Nice! That's very generous of you, Chris!- Topher exclaimed in his fanboy voice. Anyway, which one of us will jump first?- He then asked his teammates in his normal voice.

The camera then showed all the members of the Screaming Gophers eyeing themselves out, all of them reluctant to jump.

-Um…don't interns do that sort of stuff beforehand to check if it's safe?- Mike asked nervously.- Cause if it's the case then we shouldn't have problems with it, ourselves, heh.- Mike laughed awkwardly as he rubbed his shoulder.


[FLASHBACK]

The camera now showed the footage from earlier that day, showing both Chris and Chef, who was wearing his swimsuit which consisted of pink, Hawaiian swimming trunks plus orange swim tubes given to him by Chris.

-We need to test the stunts first!- Chris explained to the cook, looking really impatient.- You know that!

-Do I look like an intern?- Chef asked as he raised his eyebrow.

-No, but the ones we had are all in the hospital.- Chris explained, not really caring about them that much.- Come on, just it you big chicken!- Chris dared Chef as he began making chicken noises.

-I don't get paid enough for this, man.- Chef replied with a bored expression as he put the goggles on his eyes and then jumped.

The camera then showed yelling Chef as he finally landed in the water. Unfortunately for him though, he didn't manage to land in the safe zone.

-Hey! I made it! I made it, man!- Chef yelled as he emerged from the water, when suddenly the point of view of the camera moved underwater and was shown slowly approaching Chef's feet and butt.

-Something just brushed on my foot!- Chef yelled, disturbed by that fact and started looking around him in fear.- Hey, Chris, man! Something ain't right down here!- Chef added, visibly scared for his life at that exact moment, before he got pulled underwater by something.

He then quickly jumped above the water level, yelled, and ran away in the air, as one of the sharks attempted to eat him.

-Well, that seems safe enough.- The camera then showed Chris writing something down on his papers.

[FLASHBACK END]


The camera then showed all the members of the Screaming Gophers eyeing themselves out once again.

-I'm sorry. There's no way I'm doing this.- Heather suddenly said while crossing her arms.

-Why not?- Beth asked, slightly surprised by Heather's announcement.

-Hello! National TV! I'll get my hair wet.- Heather replied, remaining as calm and collected as she was before.

-You're kidding, right?- Noah asked as he raised his eyebrow.

-If she's not doing it, I'm not doing it!- Lindsay announced and then looked at Heather with a sense of understanding in her eyes.

-Hey, do not give up so easily, guys.- Jasmine interrupted them.- We need almost everyone to jump in order to win, remember? Wouldn't you want to win?

-I mean…yeah, but not at the cost of my hair.- Heather replied with her arms still crossed.

-Oh my gosh, me too.- Lindsay added.

-But we will lose then.- Jasmine told them.

-So? It's only the first part of the challenge. And I doubt that we will lose the second one.- Heather explained to her.

-Someone's quite cocky.- Topher commented with a grin.

-Listen here, Heather. You better jump or else…- Before Jasmine could finish her sentence Heather interrupted her.

-Or else what?! Do you actually think that I'm scared of such an excuse of a fashion sense such as yourself?!- Heather exclaimed loudly, causing other people to gasp.

-Excuse me?- Jasmine asked as she raised her eyebrow.

-Yeah, you heard me! Your normal shorts are hideous! The jacket makes you look sweaty all the time! The hat you wear, oh please, it looks like you found it in some garbage! And don't make me start on your bikini! What kind of girl wears brown bikinis when her skin color matches it!- Heather went on with her rant, while Jasmine glared angrily at her and groaned in annoyance.


Confessional-Jasmine

-Please don't judge me. Normally I'm pretty patient and kind, but that girl really made my blood boil inside of me! How dare she disrespect my fashion sense! I may not be the most girly girl in the world but I have a good enough fashion sense, I'll let you know that! Anyway, please don't judge me for what I did next.


The camera then showed Jasmine pick Heather up and throw her off the cliff, then it showed Heather falling and yelling for her life, before finally landing in the safe zone.

The camera then showed Heather emerge from the water and sneeze.

-Jasmine! You are so dead to me!- Heather yelled at the Outback Survivalist.

-You got what you deserved!- Jasmine yelled angrily at her.


Confessional-Jasmine

-Yeah…I may have a teensy, little problem with grudges.


The camera then returned to the top of the cliff and showed Jasmine as she jumped off of it and landed right next to Heather.

The camera then returned to the top of the cliff and showed Lindsay at the edge of the cliff with Chris standing next to her.

-I thought this was going to be a talent show.- Lindsay revealed in fear, while Chris started just laughing in reply.

-Yeah, no!- Chris then stopped laughing and frowned at the girl before the camera showed Lindsay falling from the cliff, throwing her hands and legs everywhere in the process.

The camera then showed as Noah, Ezekiel, Sugar and Ella followed them. Noah was more scared of the jumping, while both Ezekiel and Sugar were shown enjoying the jump.

The camera then focused more on Ella as she landed outside the safe zone.

-Look out! Look out, Ella!- Both Ezekiel and Jasmine were shown yelling at the Fairy Princess from the boat, trying to warn her.

-She's right in the middle, sharks!- Sugar then yelled, causing Ezekiel and Sugar to raise their eyebrows at her.- What?! It's not like she'll survive this anyway.

The camera then showed two shark's fins as they slowly approached Ella, who just emerged from the water, and turned towards the sharks.

The sharks then emerged from the water, wide-opened their jaws and continued swimming towards Ella, before they suddenly stopped.

-Oh, hello there, my two little fellas.- Ella greeted the sharks with a smile on her face.- Care for a song?- She asked before clearing her throat.

-I am swimming next to two, fine sharks!

-On what crazy journey, oh, I embark!

-I really hope you won't eat me whole!

-That would really put a toll on my soul!

The sharks' eyes then turned into small hearts and they were shown helping Ella swim to the bank, much to other people's astonishment.


Confessional-Ella

The camera showed Ella sitting in the confessional with various animals, such as birds, deers, and squirrels.

-I love animals. And animals love when I sing. So why shouldn't I sing to them all the time?


Confessional-Sugar

-Darn it! I cannot believe in what I have just witnessed. That Ella girl is some kind of shark whisperer! Ugh! How can I beat someone with such talent! Guess I will have to start thinking 'bout the ways to bring her down!


The camera then showed Beth and Chris, standing at the edge of the cliff, with the former being shown to shiver in fear.

-I can't do it. I'm too scared.- Beth said as Chris pulled out a chicken hat.- I'm sorry!- Beth then yelled to her teammates at the bottom of the cliff. The camera then showed Noah and Sugar making fun of her by making chicken noises.

-That is, like, so lame, right?- Lindsay asked Heather, both of them standing on the beach.

-Fully lame.- Heather agreed.

The camera then returned to the top of the cliff and showed Beth walking towards the escalator as Topher's face jumped right in front of the camera.

-And just like that, the Wannabe put her other three remaining teammates on pressure! They have to jump in order to win the challenge! But will they?!- Topher started commentating before he got interrupted by a cough.

-You done, Topher?- Chris asked, looking slightly annoyed.

-Oh, Chris, didn't see you there.- Topher said nervously.

-Oh, I didn't see you here too.- Chris replied with a smile before pushing Topher off the cliff in anger.

The camera then showed Topher yelling in fear and falling as he soon landed in the safe zone.

-Oh, I knew Chris wouldn't allow me to land in the shark zone!- Topher exclaimed happily as he emerged from the water.

-Darn it! I was trying to make him land in the shark zone.- Chris then mumbled from the top of the cliff.

-Well, guess it's my turn then.- Mike said nervously.- No biggie…just a jump from so…many…feet…- Mike then suddenly closed his eyes and shook his head and as soon as he did that, he was overflowing with confidence.

-This is ze perfect task for Svetlana, ze Russian olympian!- 'Mike' yelled in an overly girly voice, as he jumped off the cliff.

He was then shown performing various stunts mid-air, before finally landing in the safe zone, right next to Topher.

-Wow, Mike, that was amazing! Where did you learn that?!- Topher asked, amazed by Mike's talents.

-What?- Mike asked as he emerged from the water, his voice back to normal.- How did I get down here?

-Um…you jumped?- Topher said, slightly confused by what Mike meant.

-Oh! Yeah, right! I…jumped.- Mike laughed nervously while Topher just stared at him.

The camera then returned to the top of the cliff and showed shivering Cameron standing at the edge of the cliff, together with Chris who was holding a megaphone.

-Okay, campers! There's only one person left!- Chris started yelling through the megaphone.- You guys need this one for the win! No pressure, dude.- Chris said as he turned towards Cameron.

-Okay, there's pressure!- Chris suddenly yelled, causing Cameron to scream and grab his head.

The camera then showed the members of the Screaming Gophers, standing on the beach, cheering on Cameron to jump.

-C'mon Cameron!- Jasmine cheered with a smile on her face.

-You can do it, Cameron!- Ella cheered happily for the Bubble Boy.

-Do it! Just do it, Cameron!- Heather yelled at the boy, looking really irritated, as Cameron was shown to gulp in fear.


Confessional-Cameron

-You see, I was pretty nervous. I never really done anything as dangerous as this in my life! Plus all of the injuries I may get from this! Oh, I bet my mom is having a heart attack watching this at home!


Confessional-Geoff

-I'm looking at this guy and thinking, "There is no way he's gonna make it."


Confessional-Sky

-I actually thought that his body would break on impact!


Confessional-Scarlett

-Yeah…there is no way he'll actually survive this.


-Take a good run at it, buddy. You can do this!- Chris cheered up Cameron, as the latter took a few steps away from the edge and then sighed.

-This is highly illogical! There is no way I won't come out of this without any serious injuries! Statistically speaking, I have 99.999999% of dying!- Cameron exaggerated as he started to bite his nails.

-No! I can't do this! I'm gonna die if I do this! There is no way statistically that I'll survive the fall!- Cameron protested, looking terrified by the idea of jumping off the cliff.

The camera then started showing everyone looking up at Cameron, whether it was the members of his own team at the beach, the members of the other team, or Topher and Mike, who were still in the water.

-So…are you gonna be a chicken?- Chris asked Cameron as he pulled out a chicken hat and started imitating one.

-I…I…- Cameron stuttered and readjusted his glasses.- I'll do it!- Cameron yelled out.


Confessional-Cameron

-I don't actually know what came over me. My most probable theory as of now is that the pressure I received from others, as well as the strong amount of adrenaline that was probably pumping through my veins at the moment, did the job.


The camera then showed Cameron as he started yelling and running towards the end of the cliff, passing a very confused Chris in the process, and finally the Bubble Boy jumped off it with a scream.

The camera then started slowly following him to his doom, as he started falling faster and faster with each passing second, with his scream getting stronger as well.

Then, the camera then cut to two sharks slowly emerging from the water at the surface of the lake with their mouths wide-opened, getting ready for Cameron's landing.

Next, the camera showed Cameron falling off the cliff and screaming for his life.

Finally the camera showed the terrified looks on Beth's and Jasmine's faces as they were trying to comfort a very distraught Ella as the screen went black.

And finally, a loud splashing noise could be heard, and the camera revealed Cameron, who just emerged from the water, having managed what was thought to be impossible to be done by him. As soon as the Screaming Gophers noticed what had just happened, they started cheering for Cameron and started celebrating.

-THE WINNERS! THE SCREAMING GOPHERS!- Chris yelled through the megaphone with the biggest excitement that he has shown so far on the show.

-Cameron! That was awesome!- Mike cheered for the shorter boy as he swam towards him.

-Yeah, I am really impressed by you.- Topher added after a second.

-Um…that's great…but has someone seen my glasses?- Cameron asked and the camera revealed that indeed, the glasses went missing from his face.

The camera then moved towards one of the sharks, who now had a pair of glasses put on, as they probably fell down on him.

-Um…I think it might be a little hard to get them back.- Mike commented and laughed nervously.

-Ugh…-Cameron sighed in defeat as the screen went black.


The camera now showed all of the members of the Screaming Gophers, already having changed out of their swimsuits to their usual attires, as they were walking down the beach. They were pulling four carts alongside them, with each one having 3 or 2 crates on them. The ones pulling the carts were: Jasmine, Noah, Lindsay, Beth, Ezekiel and Sugar, while others walked alongside them. Everyone looked pretty content with the situation, and had wide smiles plastered on their faces.

-Yes! We're in the lead!- Lindsay cheered happily while looking behind her.

-Yeah, I don't even see the other team anymore, eh!- Ezekiel agreed with her.

-This just in!- Topher exclaimed loudly while holding an imaginary microphone to his face.- The Screaming Gophers have an incredible lead on the Killer Bass. Would the other team be able to catch up to them? Or will they lose before even reaching the cabins?

-Wow, imagine if we won that easily.- Mike spoke up.- That would be so amazing!

-Yeah, according to my statistics, there are only 5% of chances of us losing now.- Cameron added while readjusting his glasses.

-Let's hope that we're not in that 5% universe then.- Noah grumbled and rolled his eyes.

-Oh, cheer up, Noah!- Ella said happily as she danced over towards the Bookworm.- I'm sure that nothing will go wrong as long as we work together!

-Ella's right!- Jasmine agreed with the Fairy Princess.- The key word here is teamwork! Remember that!

-I thought the key word was six-four-seven-two!- Sugar suddenly exclaimed.- After all, that's my ma's password for her credit card!

-Oookay…- Jasmine slowly said, slightly confused by Sugar's comment, but before she could say anything more a loud sound of a racing vehicle could be heard in the distance, slowly becoming louder and louder.

-What was that?!- Beth asked, looking startled by the noise.

-Don't tell me that the fishies found some random car on this deadbeat island! It's impossible!- Heather yelled, clearly irritated by what the noise was inquiring about.

-Okay, team! I think we need to hurry up now!- Jasmine exclaimed and then started running.- Move! Move! Move!- She ordered and soon everyone started running as well, hoping to not get overtaken by the Killer Bass.


The camera then revealed that the source of this sound, just like all of the others noises from earlier, was no one other than Beardo, who instead of pushing his crate forward, just like the rest of his team, was currently lying on the sand and imitating the sounds of the race vehicle.

-Ugh! Could you stop already!- Sky, who was just passing him, yelled at the Human Soundboard.- It's so annoying! And furthermore, why are you not pushing your crate?!- Sky asked, to which Beardo replied by making the sounds of Hawaiian music and put his hands behind his back and relaxed.

-Ugh! Now is not the time for breaks, Beardo! We're already so far behind others!- Sky explained, looking really irritated by Beardo's actions.

-I wouldn't be surprised about that if I were you.- Scarlett suddenly spoke up from behind them, barely managing to push her own crate forward.- As you may have noticed before, our team isn't exactly the most physical team out there.- She added and then pointed to their several teammates, who were also struggling with their crates.

-Ugh! Why doesn't my strength potion work?!- Leonard complained, barely being able to push his own crate.

-So…tired…need…regeneration…- Sam stuttered out, while lying on the beach and sweating heavily.

-Go on, Samey! Push harder!- Amy ordered her sister, who was pushing both her and Amy's crates.

-I would if you actually helped me push our crates!- Samey replied, looking even more irritated with her sister than before.

-Ewww…I think I just saw some bug walking on my crate! Kill it! Kill it!- Dakota yelled, scared for her life.

The camera then returned to both Sky and Scarlett, showing that Sky's eyes have widened due to what she had just witnessed.


Confessional-Sky

-You've GOT to be kidding me!


The camera then returned to the Screaming Gophers and showed them running as fast as they could, while still pulling the carts with the crates on them.

-Quickly! We're almost there!- Jasmine yelled to the others.

-Can we slow down a bit?- Beth suddenly asked, looking slightly green in the face.- I don't feel so good.

-Me…too…- Noah gasped out, looking as if he would pass out from exhaustion any minute now.

-I would like a five-minute break, eh.- Ezekiel spoke up.

-Me too! My legs hurt me already!- Heather whined, while glaring angrily at Jasmine.

-Ugh…okay, fine. Let's take a five-minute break, then.- Jasmine announced and promptly stopped, with everyone else stopping soon after.

-Oof…thank god…finally…- Many voices of agreement were then raised by a few teammates as everyone started breathing heavily.


Confessional-Jasmine

-I must admit that I overestimated the situation. I forgot that not everyone is well suited for these kinds of challenges. I should have been more open-minded about telling other people what to do in the future. To be sure that they won't overwork themselves because of me, that is.


The camera then turned to the shot of Amy and Samey, alone on the beach, with Samey still being forced to push both her and Amy's crates.

-Ugh! Great! Now, we're so far behind that I don't even see our own teammates!- Amy complained loudly.- Great job, Samey! It's all your fault!

-How is this my fault?!- Samey asked, totally confused by it.- You're the one who's not doing anything!- Samey yelled and pointed her finger at her sister.

-Excuse me?!- Amy yelled back at her sister after she slapped the finger her sister was pointing at her away.- What did you just say?!

-What you heard! If you want to win so badly then just help me already!- Samey argued with Amy.

-Oh, you're gonna regret what you just said!- Amy said menacingly.


The camera then moved so far forward to where Duncan was kicking his crate forward, with Geoff pushing his crate alongside the Delinquent.

-So what did you get into juvie for?- Geoff asked, trying to start the small talk.

-Lots of things.- Duncan scoffed back at Geoff.- Why do you care?

-Oh, it's just I've never known anyone with a criminal past before, man.- Geoff replied honestly.- And I must say that you look pretty badass with all those piercings and all.

-Hmm…they come right with the package, as they say.- Duncan commented with a smile.

-Oh, killer!- Geoff exclaimed, sounding really excited by that.

-Anyway, while we're at it.- Duncan suddenly spoke up.- What do you think about Mike?

-Who?- Geoff asked, not really remembering everyone's name just yet.

-The scrawny guy, blue shirt, gap tooth, on the other team.- Duncan described the boy to Geoff.

-Oh! Him? Seems like a pretty chill dude! Maybe a little nervous.- Geoff replied.

-Hmm…


Confessional-Duncan

-I swear I know Mike from somewhere. I just can't figure out from where exactly. That's why I have been asking others what they think about him. But so far, he sounds like a normal wimp! Ugh…just what secret is he hiding?


The camera then came back to the Screaming Gophers and showed them walking at the normal pace once more.

-Hey, look!- Beth exclaimed suddenly and pointed forward.- There's the campgrounds!- Beth yelled and then everyone on the team started cheering.

-And I can't see any Bass members.- Mike said.- Maybe they didn't find any vehicle after all?

-Who cares about them?! Let's get to work, people!- Heather ordered everyone and soon after they started running towards their cabin.


The camera then returned to the Killer Bass, more specifically it focused on both Leonard and Shawn, as they continued to push their crates, and were seen talking to each other.

-So then, I used the conjuring spell to get a bucket of glitter! The only known fuel that allows magic to stay inside the wizard tower instead of just leaking away from it!- Leonard recounted a story to Shawn, who just raised his eyebrow.

-You actually built a twelve-feet-tall tower out of stones? Never would've guessed.- Shawn commented with disbelief in his eyes.

-It took me a lot of levitating spells and strength potions but I eventually managed to do it.- Leonard replied happily.- You should have seen the look on other mages' faces when I was done! They were so jealous of my magic essence!- Leonard gloated as he added that little fact.

-Say, are there any useful spells against zombies?- Shawn asked, curious about the topic.

-Hmmm…I would have to check inside my spell book once we're back at the camp.- Leonard explained to the Zombie Conspiracy Nut.- But I think my fellow mage, Tammy, used to fight against a horde of the undead! I don't remember if those were zombies or vampires though.- Leonard added after a moment.


Confessional-Leonard

-I was never so happy in my life! Someone actually listened to one of my stories for once instead of throwing me into a locker! Maybe it might be the beginning of a legendary quest with Shawn as one of my fellow warriors!


Confessional-Shawn

-Leonard's a pretty funny guy. Of course, I know magic isn't real, not like zombies, but I'm not gonna ruin the guy's fun. I just hope that this won't make him an easy target for the zombies.


The camera then returned to the Screaming Gophers, who were in the middle of opening their crates…with their teeth?

-Remember, you guys can only use your teeth to open up the crates.- Chris explained as he walked past Noah and Ezekiel who were struggling together to open up a crate, and stopped right next to Topher, who was using a slightly different technique, more specifically, he was holding a crowbar in his mouth and trying to place it in such a position that would open up the crate.

-I came up with that one.- Chris smirked to the camera after explaining that rule.

-Oh, Chris! You're really amazing at this.- Topher complimented the host, though the crowbar he was holding in his mouth.

-Thanks, Topher. I know I am.- Chris praised himself before leaving the scene.

-Oh! Hey! I think I got mine opened!- Topher suddenly exclaimed, and at the same time, his crate fell apart to reveal that it was containing a small red engine and a pipe.

Topher then threw the crowbar out of his mouth and groaned in pain.

-Ouch! My jaw!- Topher groaned in pain as he grabbed his jaw.

-Good job, Topher!- Jasmine praised her teammate.


The camera then moved back to another pair of the Killer Bass members, this time Sam and Dakota.

-Ugh…I can do it…- Sam groaned as he continued to push the crates, still looking pretty sweaty.- Can you help me now, Dakota?

-Ewww…no! You're too sweaty, it's so gross!- Dakota exclaimed with disgust.

Right then, they were approached by Chris driving a red ATV.

-You guys, are way behind the other team…like waaaay behind.- Chris commented.- What's the problem?

-Ugh! This challenge is the problem!- Dakota exclaimed.- My daddy never said they would be this hard when he promised to get me on the show.- Dakota explained to the host.

-Oh, right! You're Mr. Milton's girl, aren't you?- Chris questioned her.

-Um…Duh!- Dakota replied.

-Explains why you are so…you know…complainy…- Chris commented and rolled his eyes.

-What was that supposed to mean?- Dakota questioned the host.

-Nothing. Anyway, good luck with getting to the cabins!- Chris ignored her question and drove away.


Confessional-Dakota

-Chris is, like, the meanest person ever! Ugh! I will, so, message my daddy to see if they could replace him for a much nicer host.


The camera then, once again, swapped the perspective to the members of the other team, this time revealing that most members of the Screaming Gophers already managed to open up their crates.

-Look, guys! I've got some tools!- Cameron exclaimed as he took a hammer and a screwdriver out of his crate.

-And I got some very useful pool liner!- Ella added happily as she pulled out a blue piece of cloth from her crate.

-And I got lots of wood, eh!- Ezekiel cheered.

The camera then turned towards Jasmine and Noah taking out other pieces of wood from their crates.

-Putting wood in wood crates, such unnecessary consumption of really important materials.- Jasmine commented with a disappointed look on her face.

-Well you can't expect the producers to actually be smart if they forced us to jump from the one-thousand high cliff.- Noah commented with sarcasm in his voice.

Both of them then got interrupted by Heather and Lindsay, the latter walking alongside Heather like a cute, lost puppy, who approached them.

-Can I steal Jasmine for a quick second here?- Heather asked really nicely and then took her arm and started pulling her away.- Thanks.

-What do you want, Heather?- Jasmine asked, still a bit sore about what happened earlier.

-I just wanted to say that I didn't mean all those mean things that I said about your fashion sense. And I love you hat. It just looks so pretty on you.- Heather complimented the Outback Survivalist.

-Wow, you really mean it?- Jasmine asked.

-Yes, of course.- Heather replied.

-Well, then I guess I'm sorry about throwing you off the cliff.- Jasmine apologized.

-No biggie. I needed that push. I should actually be thanking you.- Heather commented.

-Well then, truce?- Jasmine asked.

-Truce.- Heather replied and then bumped her fists with Jasmine, and soon after both her and Lindsay left the scene.

-Did you mean all that stuff you said to Johanna, back there?- Lindsay asked the Queen Bee.

-Jasmine? Ugh, no!- Heather revealed.- She's going down! And PS. that was the ugliest hat I have seen in my life!- Heather commented which caused Lindsay to look slightly nervous. Heather then stopped and started applying the lipstick onto her lips.

-Oh, so if you hate her, then why are you being nice to her?- Lindsay asked, not really understanding the situation at hand.

-Have you ever seen one of this shows before?- Heather asked Lindsay before turning her head and raising her finger into the air.- Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer!

-Ooooh!- Lindsay gasped as she finally realized what Heather meant.- I'm your friend, right?

-Oh, yeah. For now.- Heather replied and then left Lindsay alone.

The camera then showed Scarlett, Sky, Beardo, Duncan and Geoff finally arriving at the campground with their crates.

-Ugh…finally!- Scarlett said and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

-Oh, hey guys!- Mike said and waved to the other team, while holding a piece of wood.

-Say, aren't ya missin' a couple of fishies?- Sugar questioned them as she emerged from the inside of their crate.

-Who? Those other guys? I'm sure at least half of them got eaten alive by a bear by this point.- Scarlett commented and rolled her eyes, while Beardo let out a bear roar.

-Yeah, so sad.- Duncan added with a smirk.

-Guys, don't say things like that! I'm sure everyone will turn up at some point!- Sky said to her teammates.

-Sure, if you believe in miracles.- Duncan scoffed at Sky's optimism.

The camera view then changed to show Geoff standing on top of the crates.

-Okay, dudes! It's not too late! We can do this!- The Funniest Guy Around motivated his team, while the camera showed most of them, now also including Shawn and Leonard, sitting at the porch of their cabin and looking disinterestedly at him.

-Yeah…no.- Duncan replied with a bored look on his face.

-Yeah, and even if we wanted to, we're still missing four crates!- Shawn pointed out to his teammates.

-I would count again, my good friend, cause I think another two have just arrived.- Leonard announced and soon the camera showed Sam shoving both his and Dakota's crates towards the campground, before promptly fainting from exhaustion.

-Still missing two, what if there is something really important in those two?- Shawn questioned.

-Then, we'll improvise.- Scarlett announced as she stood up.- Enough with lazing around! We actually need to do something if we want to win!

-Any great ideas then, Miss Oh-So-Smart?- Duncan teased the Quiet Brainiac.

-Ugh…Beardo and Leonard, start opening the crates! Duncan, Shawn and I are going to build the hot tub! Geoff, your task is to take care of Sam and make sure Dakota does something useful! And, finally, Sky, you're really fast so try to find Amy and Samey!- Scarlett ordered everyone what to do, to which everyone nodded.

The camera then started the montage of the Screaming Gophers working together, quickly building the hot tub's body, nailing the nails to the wood, helping each other all the time, and even giving each other hammers and screwdrivers. Overall, their hot tub looked as if a professional had built it.

Meanwhile, on the Killer Bass' side, things weren't as successful.

-Um…Scarlett?- Leonard turned her attention towards himself.

-What now, Leonard?- Scarlett questioned the boy.

-So…we opened all of the crates thanks to my jaw magic but there weren't any hammers and screwdrivers anyway.- Leonard voiced his concerns to the Brainiac, who in response face-palmed herself.

-Ugh! Just my luck! Amy and Samey surely had those in their crates!- Scarlett groaned in annoyance.- Guess, we'll have to improvise.

-I have this piece of really strong magic tape.- Leonard proposed as he pulled out a normal-looking tape from his robe.

-I guess we can't sink any lower than this anyway…- Scarlett sighed in defeat as she took the tape from the LARPer


Confessional-Scarlett

-As an inventor and master builder I was so humiliated by this challenge! Don't get me wrong, I would've done this with my eyes closed. But even I have my limits! I can't build a hot tub without basic tools, like a hammer or a screwdriver! If only Amy and Samey weren't so much behind! Ugh! They are so useless! They all are!


The camera then showed a poorly-built hot tub that belonged to the Killer Bass. It was basically holding up together only thanks to the tape that was provided by Leonard, otherwise, it wouldn't even stand straight. The wooden planks were attached really messily to the skeleton, and it had so many holes that it would be a miracle if it didn't leak in the end.

The camera then started showing the two teams filling their tubs. Once again, the Gophers showed greater coordination by making a line from the lake towards the hot tub, and taking the filled bucket from one hand to the other. The Bass, on the other hand, were shown trying to deal with a sudden leak, with Leonard quickly resolving the problem with simply applying more tape to the construction.

The scene then changed to a shot of both teams standing in front of their cabins with their hot tubs. Chris was then shown examining the two tubs, with the camera doing close-ups of each team looking nervous. The host lingered on the Screaming Gophers' steaming masterpiece and threw up his arms.

-This is an awesome hot tub!- Chris exclaimed and as soon as he said that the Screaming Gophers started cheering.

-Ugh! Help me! I'm drowning!- Cameron suddenly yelled, as he emerged from the hot tub, and surprised everyone.

Chris then approached the Bass. The eleven teens gasped as Chris tapped the side of the worse-made tub, and was squirted by a sudden new leak. The camera zoomed out to show several other jets of water spurting out from the tub and soon after, the entire hot tub got destroyed by the leaks.

-Well, I think we have a winner here!- Chris announced as he smiled to the camera.- The Screaming Gophers!- Chris finally announced, prompting the winning team to start cheering.

-Gophers! You're safe from elimination and you get to rock this awesome hot tub for the rest of the summer!- Chris announced to the winning team.- Bonus.

-Killer Bass, what can I say?- Chris asked when he turned towards the losing team.- Sucks to be you right now. I'll see your sorry butts at the bonfire tonight.- Chris announced with a smirk on his face before walking away.

-We won!- The camera then focused on cheering Lindsay.- We all get to stay here for another three days!- Lindsay cheered together with Heather and Beth as the three of them hugged.

-I'm so happy that we've won! Aren't you, Sugar?- Ella asked the Pageant Queen with a smile on her face.

-Yeah…Of course I am! I can't wait for all those killer hot tub parties we're about to have!- Sugar exclaimed happily.


The scene then moved over to the Main Lodge, where the campers were having their dinner, and soon the camera zoomed on the Killer Bass.

-Soooo…what are we gonna do now?- Sam asked his teammates, sounding really worried.

-Well, of course we need to figure out who to vote for.- Scarlett replied.

-But how are we gonna decide on that?- Shawn questioned her.

-I think it should be the princess, or the human noise maker.- Duncan replied while pointing at both Dakota and Beardo.

-What?- Dakota asked, sounding confused.- Why me?

-Because unless I'm mistaken, you two are the only ones here wearing chicken hats.- Duncan replied to her.- But, if there ever was a challenge in which we would have to lift something big, I would've preferred if we kept the big guy.- Duncan commented and then high-fived Beardo, who let out a sound of a celebrating crowd.

-What?! No! You can't vote Dakota out!- Sam suddenly yelled as he stood up, which caused everyone on his team to stare at him, with suspicious looks in their eyes.- What I meant is that…ugh…there are a lot more people who caused us to lose today, you can't blame everything on Dakota!- Sam defended the Fame-Monger as best as he could.

-Wow…Sam…You're really…nice?- Dakota complimented the Gamer guy?- Is that what people say when someone does that?- She whispered her question to Geoff, who was sitting next to her.

-If you're so smart, then who would you pick?- Duncan questioned him.

-Um…what about him?- Sam asked and pointed at Leonard.

-NOOO!- Sugar suddenly yelled from across the hall, as she overheard what Sam has just said, while her teammates looked at her with questioning looks.- What?! You would have to be an idiot to vote out a real wizard!

-But at least, Leonard jumped.- Sky replied to Sam.- It wouldn't be fair if we voted for him. We should instead vote for someone who didn't contribute to the challenges, like, at all.- Sky proposed to her teammates.

-You want someone who hasn't contributed at all?- Samey asked with hope in her eyes.- I have someone like that!- She revealed it to the others.

-Wait, really? Who was sabotaging us all?- Leonard questioned the Nice Cheerleader.

-It was Amy!- Samey yelled loudly, stood up, and pointed at her sister.- She's always bossy, never does anything to help others and all that she has done today was ordering me around!- Samey revealed which caused everyone to gasp in shock.- She deserves to be eliminated over everyone else!

-Um…Samey, that isn't exactly what I meant by standing up to your sister.- Sky said slowly, not believing what she was just witnessing.

-It doesn't matter! What does matter is that Amy didn't do anything during the second half of the challenge! So we can vote her out, right?!- Samey asked everyone with hope in their eyes, which quickly faded as she heard the sounds of a very familiar person crying.

-I can't believe you just said that, Samey.- Amy sobbed quietly as she looked at her sister.- What kind of sister says that! You know very well that I sprained my wrist recently and can't use it too often.- Amy showed her wrist to everyone and then continued sobbing.- To think you would have wanted me gone so soon! What kind of sister are you!- She then bursted out crying, which caused Scarlett, who was sitting next to her, to hug the Mean Cheerleader in order to comfort her.

Everyone then started glaring angrily at Samey.

-Not cool, Samey.- Geoff spoke up first.- You shouldn't say things like that about Amy.

-Yeah, she's your own sister, what kind of monster are you?- Shawn questioned her.

-Even I'm not that cruel to my older brother.- Scarlett commented with a frown.

-Are you secretly a witch in disguise?- Leonard questioned her.

-That outburst was, like, so not good-looking for you.- Dakota commented in disgust.

-What do you all mean?!- Samey questioned them.- I'm the nice one, right?! Amy is just a monster!- Samey yelled, causing everyone to gasp and Amy to cry even louder than before.

-Samey, what is wrong with you?!- Sam questioned her, offended that she even said something like that.

-Yeah, again, she's your sister! Does no one value their family anymore?!- Shawn questioned with wide eyes.

-But…but…- Samey suddenly realized what she had just said and noticed that Amy was secretly grinning at her, in-between her cries.

-Oh…no…- Samey let out as she realized that she played right into Amy's trick.


The camera then changed into the shot of The Killer Bass sitting on the stumps around the, now lit, campfire pit while the clearing on the left was now lined up with burning torches and small strings of lights. In the back row sat six campers: Leonard, Amy, Samey, Sky, Beardo and Geoff. And five people sat in the front row: Sam, Dakota, Scarlett, Shawn and Duncan.

The camera then zoomed on them and showed that most of them were staring at Samey with annoyed looks on their faces.

-Like what you're seeing?- Amy asked with a smug look on her face while Samey sighed quietly.

-Now, Killer Bass, at camp marshmallows represent a tasty treat that you enjoy roasting by the fire.- Chris started saying while the camera focused on the plate with ten marshmallows on it.- At this camp, marshmallows represent life.- Chris explained while the camera panned to the sight of, now, slightly nervous campers.- You've all cast your votes and made your decision.- Chris explained slowly while building a tension.- There are only ten marshmallows on this plate.- Chris explained while the camera focused on a plate once more.

-When I call your name, come up and claim your marshmallow. The camper who does not receive a marshmallow tonight must immediately return to the Dock of Shame...- Chris explained slowly while the camera showed the dock, where the boat was already waiting to collect someone.- To catch the Boat of Losers. That means you're out of the contest!- Chris announced with a glare as he pointed at the campers.- And you can't come back. EVER!- Chris explained as most of the Killer Bass seemed even more nervous because of that reveal.

-The first marshmallow goes to…Geoff.- Chris announced and the camera showed the Funniest Guy Around ran forward towards the host, and Chris put the marshmallow on Geoff's stick.

-Scarlett.- Chris continued.

-Naturally. I wouldn't expect any other scenario.- Scarlett commented while adjusting her glasses and then stood up and went to claim her marshmallow.

-Shawn.- The Zombie Conspiracy Nut smiled and went to get his marshmallow.

-Sky.- The Athlete stood up and also followed the others to get her marshmallow.

-Beardo.- The Human Soundboard then imitated the sound of a Mario victory theme.

-Sam.

-Oh, yeah!- The Gamer Guy cheered and went forward for his treat.

-Leonard.

-Finally!- The LARPer let out a sigh of relief and joined the others.

-Dakota.- The Fame-Monger smiled happily as she took her marshmallow.

-Duncan.- The Delinquent simply stood up and went to get his marshmallow like the people before him.

The camera then focused on the host and the dramatic expression on his face.

-Campers, this is the final marshmallow of the evening!- Chris announced as the camera focused on a plate with only one marshmallow remaining before changing to the shot of both Amy and Samey glaring at each other, waiting for the final verdict.

The camera then focused on the extremely nervous expression on Samey's face as she started biting her nails before the camera turned to Amy who sat there looking quite confident about her chances of remaining in the competition as the dramatic music started playing in the background. The camera then started constantly changing from Amy, to Samey, to marshmallow, back and forth, before Chris started pointing at them with his finger, constantly changing his target from one teen to the other until finally he spoke…

-Amy.- Chris finally revealed with a smile on his face.

-What? But…How?!- Samey stuttered out, totally confused by what just happened.- You mean to tell me you picked Amy over me?

-What else did you expect, sis?- Amy teased her.- At least some people finally realized how useless you really are.

-Yeah, can't say I'm shocked myself.- Chris interrupted them.- Yelling at your sister on your first day here, and in such a way? Not cool.- Chris added with a frown on his face.

-But…But…- Samey, who was on the verge of tears, wanted to say something but nothing could actually escape her mouth.

-Oh, zip it and do us all a pleasure by going home already!- Amy yelled at her.

-Just so you'll know, the dock of shame is that-a-way.- Chris explained as he pointed off-screen.

-You…You all made a big mistake! It should've been Amy going home, not me! And if you have at least some brain then you'll realize your mistake sooner than later.- Samey commented, with tears now fully coming out of her eyes, as she started going away from the campfire.

-The rest of you!- Chris said as he turned to the mostly guilty-looking gophers.- Enjoy your marshmallows! You're all safe...for tonight.- Chris added with an evil smirk on his face.

The camera then focused on Samey walking down the dock, carrying her bags in her hands, with her head down and with a depressed look on her face as she slowly approached the Boat of Losers, driven by Chef.

-Here, let me help!- Chef told her as he stepped from inside the boat and took the bags from Samey, helping her carry them to the boat.

-Whatever...- Samey sighed in defeat as she entered the boat.


Confessional-Sky

-And just like that, my first friend is gone. I can't believe that they actually got rid of Samey instead of going for someone like Beardo, who didn't even contribute to the challenges! It's just so frustrating when people decide to go with their emotions instead of their logic. Anyway, I'll have to make sure my team won't lose again like that. Wish me luck, it won't be easy.


The camera then moved towards the outside of Gophers' cabin with the sounds of the party all over the place. Ezekiel, Heather, Lindsay, Mike and Topher were currently enjoying the hot tub with the Chris Wannabe raising a glass to toast.

-To the Screaming Gophers, my fellow teammates! The best team in the entire world!- Topher yelled with excitement in his voice while all the people in the hot tub cheered.

-Hey, Noah, you're not going to join us, eh?- Ezekiel asked the Bookworm who was currently sitting alone at the porch of the cabin, and was reading a book.

-I would love to but I don't want to catch a case of craziness from any of you.- Noah said and rolled his eyes at them.

-What? Someone's crazy up here?- Sugar asked as she approached the guy.- I bet it must be Ella then, huh? With her constant singing and all that.

-Oh, Sugar, you don't need to worry about me. I'm perfectly sane.- Ella replied, mistaking Sugar's malice for care.

-Go Screaming Gophers!- Beth exclaimed once more, sounding really excited by their win.- I still can't believe that we've actually won!

-You better do then. 'Cause we all earned that victory.- Jasmine replied to her.

-Even me? I mean, I didn't jump after all.- Beth asked, looking slightly embarrassed now.

-Oh, don't beat yourself down. I'm sure that there will be a lot of points when you would be able to prove your strengths to us.- Jasmine reassured her.

-Oh, thanks Jasmine.- Beth smiled at the other girl and then they all returned to their party.

In the same moment the camera moved slightly closer to the woods and revealed one particular person, observing the winning team and their celebration while writing something down in a notebook of some sorts. The person in question was no one other than Scarlett herself who as soon as noticed the camera, turned towards the cameraman.

-Are you still recording this?- Scarlett asked the cameraman while they nodded.- Good, because while those losers think of themselves as winners at the moment, they do not realize that I am actually the person who holds the biggest amount of power in this game.- Scarlett added and then pointed towards her head.- With this, and some extra fancy words, this entire team and mine as well, would kneel before me. I won't hesitate to mess with those people. And mark my words, I may not be the strongest competitor but I would be the person who will end up with the winning prize. Not Jasmine. Not Sky. Not Heather. Not Duncan. Me!- Scarlett pointed at herself while a devilish smirk formed on her face and she started laughing maniacally as the screen went black and the episode ended.


TEAMS

Screaming Gophers: Beth, Cameron, Ella, Ezekiel, Heather, Jasmine, Lindsay, Mike, Noah, Sugar, Topher (11)

Killer Bass: Amy, Beardo, Dakota, Duncan, Geoff, Leonard, Sam, Scarlett, Shawn, Sky (10)


ELIMINATION TABLE

22nd: Samey [The Nice Cheerleader]


So, a double update, huh. I hope you like it.

Anyway, the reason for eliminating Samey this early is pretty simple: This isn't a season that's about her. Sorry, Sammy's fans. Her time will come, but just not now. I actually need her gone this early in order for my plans to work properly for her future appearances and I hope that you'll forgive me for this. This decision also opens a lot of other possibilities for me, like what would happen to Amy, now that Sammy's gone and there is no one to do her dirty work for her anymore. Or how will her teammates react when they'll realize that they made a mistake when keeping her instead of her sister, or getting rid of someone more useless, like Beardo for example. I would just love to work with that.

Anyway, that's all for Sammy's elimination. Anyway, I would be grateful if you could say what you liked and what you disliked about the chapter in the reviews. It would really help me out.

Also there is a discord server for this season so if you want to join it, then simply PM, saying that you want to join it, and I'll send you an invitation. My nickname on the discord is Rudy08#0779

That's all for today, MTDN signing off!
