Total Drama Chaotic Camp
Episode 16- Dances, Costumes and Hearts.
Chris: Last time on Total Drama Chaotic Camp.
Chris: We put the teams through a physical and mental endurance test at the same time by having to do a race with academic tests.
Chris: They had zoology classes by separating animals, History and Geography in a cave, Math with objectives, and a puzzle.
Chris: Melody's animal connection seems to have followed Paul, while Lucas proved there is some brains in his concrete head.
Chris: But in the end, Bryan sabotaged his team and the votes to get rid of Sarah, creating a rift between the 2 remaining girls on his team. And now he has his 4 teammates entangled in his hands, and they don't know it.
Chris: With 12 campers remaining, tensions are escalating. Will today's challenge be able to explode some? Find out. In Drama. Total. Camp Chaos.
-INTRO-
We see a camera coming out of the middle of a tree, a set of lights coming out of a garbage can, a second camera coming out of a burrow pulling out a Mole, a last camera came out of the water in front of a beaver, who showed his middle finger out to the camera.
Dear Mom and Dad I'm doing fine,
You guys are on my mind.
The camera passes across the road, along an old bus, and through the forest to the camp, where Chris was with his cellphone and a coffee, while Chef was chasing a raccoon that was taking an apple.
You asked me what I wanted to be
and now I think the answer is plain to see,
The camera enters another section of the forest where Rose is seen feeding a squirrel, when the branch they are on breaks and falls to the ground, next to Melody who was sitting on a nearby log petting a rattlesnake, which was wagging its tail like a dog. The camera panned a bit showing Sarah doing her tricks on her skateboard, until she hits a jump that sends her flying, fortunately, Lacey caught her, the skateboarder hugged her while the biker rolled her eyes.
I wanna be famous…
I wanna live close to the sun,
The camera pans to a section of the river where Corey and Laney were arguing in a canoe, which fell over the waterfall.
Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,
The two passed behind a log where Lucas and Damian were having a fight, until the log broke causing them both to fall. The camera moves to the confessional where Shane was trying to open the door, until Lara, dressed as Raven from the "Teen Titans" scares him, making him go through the door.
Everything to prove, nothing in my way
I'll get there one day.
Cause, I wanna be famous!...
The camera moves to the base of the mountain, where Nikki was writing something in her notebook, while watching Helen playing a song on her guitar. Then the camera moved to the side showing Bryan smiling awkwardly for a selfie with Alan, when out of nowhere, Elias scares the influencer, causing the photo to go wrong.
na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na...
The camera pans over the lake, where Anthony was observing his surroundings with a spotting scope, while Keith and Jane were trying to knock each other off platforms with sticks.
I wanna be,
I wanna be,
I wanna be famous,
The camera moves to the dock where Ethan was sharpening his sword, being watched by Valerie, until a bucket of water falls on her, showing that Paul had thrown it. Valerie jumped on him and they began to fight.
I wanna be,
I wanna be,
I wanna be famous...
The camera goes up to focus on the sun, and it changes to the moon, then down to the bonfire, where Carly was looking at Deán blushing, he notices and approaches her, but Olivia comes out in the middle of them both and raises a sign with a heart and the letters CD, making them both blush even more.
-Whistling in tune-
The camera zooms out showing the 24 Campers around the campfire, and the season sign is shown.
-end of the intro-
A bird flew over the camp's skies carrying some worms for its young in the nest. While some squirrels were eating some cereal bars they had stolen from the inmates.
The remaining 5 members of the Mooses were in the mess hall eating breakfast... whatever was on their plates. Each in their own place, but you could feel the tension.
On one side Lacey was not taking her eyes off Helen, who right now wished she could just disappear. For she felt like the Biker was shooting arrows at her with her eyes.
While at the other end of the table. Lucas and Shane were staring at each other, barely blinking. The tension between the two had escalated quite a bit, and while it hadn't yet translated into physical conflict, it was easy to predict that wouldn't take long.
Which was a delight for the fifth member of the team. Bryan. Who was watching his two duo of teammates nervously, but inside he was grinning like he was the Joker.
-confessional-
Bryan: Ah, nothing like a little dose of tension in the air to have a good breakfast. Lacey's confidence is snapped like a tree twig, while Lucas and Shane are on the verge of exploding like two bomb monkeys. And it's just a matter of making my next part of the plan. Now, are there any Argentinian idioms for romance?
-end of confessional-
Meanwhile, the owls were once again enjoying the winner's mansion, Keith was repeatedly hitting a punching bag, with the Eye of the Tiger theme playing in the background.
-confessional-
Keith: I've made it to the halfway point of the season, which is good progress, my next goal will be to get Jane out of the way, Shane can wait until the merge, if he doesn't get voted out first of course.
-end of confessional-.
In the waiting room, Valerie and Carly were looking through some fashion magazines.
Valerie: Uhhhh, you would look great in this dress.
Carly saw a picture of a Scarlet Red dress, with an embossed skirt and shoulder pads of a fluffy material that resembled those of the red queen in Alice in Wonderland.
Carly: Isn't it a little... stuffy.
Valerie: Hey. My mom always said, Either you make a great impression. Or you stay home.
Carly: I don't know. I prefer something a little simpler. Like this one here.
Valerie saw a picture of a yellow dress with a little sparkle on the chest, forming a "chain" of gold flowers.
Valerie: Mmm, not bad. With a gold lipstick to seal the deal and all the banks are going to claim you.
At that, they hear a noise and see a broken hotel window, with a soccer ball in it.
Dean: Emmmm... Oops?
Paul: You know. We're lucky that technically, Chris is paying for this.
Chris(loud speaker): Yeah. But don't push your luck, or you'll be keeping Duncan company in jail for property damage.
Paul: But I don't have a record.
Chris(loud speaker): But I have connections.
Dean: And you think it's a good idea to say that on international television?
Chris (loud speaker): Um... forget I said anything. McLean out.
Deán smiled when he saw that he had silenced the presenter. Carly smiled too, she loved the kid's no-bs attitude.
-confessional-
Valerie: I need to find a way to really break things between Carly and Dean, if those two get even closer. Or worse, lips, they'll be a danger. Maybe Bryan has some sabotage hidden in there.
-end of confessional-
Jane finished taking a shower after walking around the camp to warm up. When she came out of her room she found a tray with some food, a bouquet of roses and a letter.
Jane: Huh?
The black haired girl opened the note, finding a poem..
Jane: Estar contigo o no estar contigo es la medida de mi tiempo.
Ya el cántaro se quiebra sobre la fuente, ya el hombre se
levanta a la voz del ave, ya se han oscurecido los que miran
por las ventanas, pero la sombra no ha traído la paz.
Es, ya lo sé, el amor: la ansiedad y el alivio de oír tu voz,
la espera y la memoria, el horror de vivir en lo sucesivo.
( El amenazado. De Jorge Luis Borges)
Her cheeks turned slightly red. It was the first time she had ever had a poem dedicated to her. She looked at the paper again and saw no signature.
Jane: ummm, he still doesn't want to move forward. She might have to...
Chris: attention teams. Time for your special challenge today. Meet me at the talent show stage.
The two teams gathered at the venue, where there were no longer seats, and in their place was now a wooden floor.
Keith: Another theatrical challenge? We did one less than 4 days ago.
Shane: I don't think so, this must be different. They even installed a floor.
At that a ceremonial music started playing, and Chris came out on stage wearing his blue tuxedo.
Chris: Greetings students.
Lacey: Youre joking, another educational challenge.
Chris: No. That was the one before that. And that was their graduation from the first phase, so we officially have half of the players. Which means.
Valerie: Is it merger time?
-confessional-
Keith: Perfect.
Valerie: Great.
Paul: Time to kick it up a notch.
Shane: Plus Ultra.
Jane: Yes.
Bryan: Oh I like this.
-End of confessional-
Chris: Almost. But no. It's time for Pre-Fusion, over the next few days, they will compete in two new teams with two very delineated themes that are a nod to Pre-Fusion from the first season.
Dean: Wait. So the new teams are...
Chris: Guys, vs, Girls. The battle of the sexes. Part two.
Everyone was surprised and looked at each other.
Lucas: All right, to Caesar what is Caesar's. I didn't see that one coming.
Chris: Before explaining their challenge, all the boys officially move on to the Screaming Elks, while all the girls move on to the confused owls.
They all did as they were told.
Chris: Okay, now. Your challenge today will have a school prom theme, the dance that everyone is looking for a partner for so you're not the poor sap going solo. It will consist of three stages, decorations, clothes and music. Since each team has 6 members, they will divide the tasks, the decorators will be in charge of beautifying their half of the venue, i.e. the stage and the floor. Using the supplies that are arriving now.
Some helicopters dropped off some boxes, and these were opened showing tables, chairs, tablecloths, boxes of glasses and other things.
Chris: The costume managers will have to take the measurements of their colleagues and make outfits for the ball. Which will be judged by the chef, myself and our intern Stan.
Paul: Isn't he the one Lucas kicked?
Stan: Yes. But he already paid for that.
Lucas: I gave them the best dinner of their lives. An asado as only Argentines know to make. But seriously, you should pay them more, or at least feed them.
Chris: I'll take that into consideration. The third part is the music, the two members of the team that will be in charge of that will have to play a song for a graduation.
Helen and Nikki high fived, that was their area.
Chris: And. Just in case we have a tie. I have a fourth challenge set up. A dancing duel.
Keith, Dean, Paul, Lucas and Lacey snorted at the last challenge.
-confessional-
Keith: Great.
Lucas: Have the dancing skills of a rock.
Paul: I don't dance.
Dean: Last time I danced, I broke two flower pots.
Lacey: I hate dancing.
-End of confessional-
Chris: You have a total of 4 hours to complete all activities. Good luck.
The two teams put some distance between each other and debated their roles.
Guys
Keith: Alright, it's clear that we're going to require some strength to set up the tables and all that, so I'll be one of the decorators.
Bryan: I can help you with that, I usually help with the sets for the plays.
Keith: Well, the toothpick and I are decorators.
Shane: I can handle the costumes. I made mine myself.
Dean: Let me help you, I worked in a tailor shop for a few months.
Lucas: That leaves me and Paul in music.
Paul: But I don't know anything about that.
Lucas: don't worry, we'll find a way around it.
Girls
Lacey: I'll take care of the decorating. It's the only thing I have any experience with.
Valerie: I think Carly and I should take care of the dresses.
Jane: Helen, Nikki, can we leave the music to you?
Helen: Yes, Captain.
Jane: That is not necessary.
Helen: Understood my captain, I mean Jane. Sorry, I get excited when music is involved.
Nikki laughed at the blonde's energetic attitude.
Jane: Then I'll help Lacey with the decorations.
Lacey: Okay, let's go...
Carly: Wait, let her take her measurements first, that'll save us time with the dresses.
Lacey: What dresses? No, no, no and of course not. I'm not wearing a dress.
Valerie: Uh. You have to. It's a ball.
Lacey: it's not the 18th century to have to wear a dress.
Chris(loud speaker): oh, did I forget to mention that it's mandatory for girls to wear dresses and boys to wear suits? Yes, I know it sounds like last century. But it's more cliché, and guarantees reactions from both you and the fans.
Lacey: Right. But nothing over the top, I'll just use it for the challenge.
Carly: Great. Now take off your vest so we can measure.
Once both teams had their jobs on, they split up to work.
Lacey: All right, what's the idea?
Jane: Tables on the sides, I was thinking white tablecloths with red accents to match the red curtains.
Lacey: Mmm, sounds good. McLean said he liked clichés, and those are the most cliché colors for this kind of thing.
The two set about moving one of the tables.
Jane: How were things on your team? You know, before this semi-merger.
Lacey: Not great, the last one to leave was my friend, and I think one of us is sabotaging us.
Jane: Why do you say that?
Lacey: Why do you care so much?
Keith and Bryan were trying to define their side of the "room".
Keith: Well, I say 4 tables, parallel, with white tablecloths and some flowers in the middle.
Bryan: That's very formal. Plus we have to leave room for dancing, even if they move them to that side.
Keith: Okay. So... like an arch. It will leave enough room to dance.
Bryan: That's better. Now, the stage.
The two of them went to the back.
Keith: Alright, now that we're away from the girls I want to propose something.
Bryan: amm, ok?
Keith: It's obvious that we're getting closer and closer to the finals, and you're not exactly the most physically graceful. But, you are creative and resourceful. Something I can respect.
Bryan: Are you suggesting an alliance?
Keith: Clearly. Do you like the deal?
Bryan: Well, Lucas and Shane seem to be nothing short of exploding, and I've already tried to calm them down. I guess I could use an ally in case things get out of hand.
Keith: Then it's a deal.
-confessional-
Keith: A deal I don't intend to keep.
Bryan: Idiot.
-end of confessional-
At the mansion, Valerie and Carly were working on dresses, they had 6 mannequins that matched the other's measurements, and they also had 2 sewing machines, lots of fabrics, etc.
Carly: Well, I was thinking of a navy blue for Jane.
Valerie: Mmm, that sounds nice. But I think she would look better in a dark purple, maybe with a mid-cut skirt, to give her freedom of movement.
Carly: mmm, but she already has her pearls in that shade, maybe a yellow dress to break up those tones.
Valerie picked up a fabric.
Valerie: how is it?
Carly: Yes, exactly.
-confessional-
Carly: Making the dresses was the most fun I've had since I got here. I felt just like I did when I played with my dolls when I was 6 years old, only the dolls were now life size.
Valerie: Oh, it's so easy to gain their trust. Still, I must admit it's nice to have someone with a similar interest.
-end of confessional-
Dean and Shane were working in the cabin.
Shane: Okay, so Lucas and Keith in black, you and Paul in gray, and Bryan and I in white.
Dean: Sounds good, we'll be the same with neutral tones, nothing too spectacular.
Shane: Great, I'll get to work on the black suits.
-confessional-
Shane: I've had a lot of suits, and I've made those for several of my fellow heroes. After all, a hero must always be ready for duty.
-end of confessional-
Lucas and Paul were in an area of the forest thinking about what to play.
Lucas: Well, do you know it?
Paul: No.
Lucas: This one?
Paul: no.
Lucas: at least?
Paul: No.
Lucas: Well, you obviously don't have that much of a musical repertoire.
Paul: and I didn't go to my graduation either, so I don't know what you dance to there.
The masked man got to thinking.
-confessional-
Lucas: Maybe I can use this to make a play with Jane. What better than a song to touch a girl's heart. Lucas, a veces eres un genio
-end of confessional-.
Finally, Helen and Nikki were in a room going through an extensive playlist.
Nikki: Very heavy. Very dirty. Very warlike. Too meme.
Helen: You just threw out all the good ones.
Nikki: Yeah, the good ones for situations other than a prom.
The pure rocker pouted, which made Nikki's cheeks blush at how adorable she looked.
Helen: Okay, we can sing something slow, just to get the mood going. Now... I know rap is your area, but I don't think it's entirely appropriate for dancing.
Nikki: Don't worry. I know how to sing another beat.
Helen: In that case.
The blonde started going through a notebook.
Helen: How is it?
The rapper took a look at it.
Nikki: I love it.
Helen: Alright, tune the vocal cords, I'll tune my guitar strings.
-confessional-
Nikki sighs with a smitten look on her face.
Nikki: She's so beautiful when she gets excited.
Helen: It feels great to have patched things up with Nikki, we have a lot of things in common, she's very funny, talented -she starts fantasizing- she has a beautiful voice, a great personality, sparkling eyes and lips that scream kiss me... em. I mean, lips that are there to kiss. Gah.
-end of confessional-
The camera shows a montage of both teams at work, Keith setting up the tables while Bryan put some decorations on the stage, Lacey setting up the chairs, while Jane used her agility to put up some decorations around the place. Then to Valerie and Carly working in sync on dresses, with lots of materials. Shane sewing a gray tuxedo, while Dean was cleaning a white one. Helen tuning her guitar while Nikki sang, and similarly, Lucas practiced his singing while Paul tried to keep up with the guitar. Until a horn interrupted the work.
Chris: Time's up Campers. Now, get dressed for the occasion and meet at the fashion show we've set up at camp.
Helen and Nikki poked their heads over the balcony and saw the stage.
Helen: How did you put that together so quickly?
Chef: Military secrets.
Chef leaned over a box that said "Instant Fashion Stage."
Chris: Who will have the best fashion? Find out, when we come back.
-commercial break-
The camera returned to the stage, with Chris, Chef and Stan ready to judge.
Chris: All right, Screaming Mooses, you'll go first.
Shane was the first to come out, wearing a white colored suit, with a black shirt, he had his neatest hair and had a mask that looked more like a dancing mask (you know, elegant mask dance and stuff).
Bryan wore a similar one, but the shirt was gray and he wore a white tie with horizontal stripes.
Paul wore an ash gray suit with a black shirt and a tie the same color as the jacket.
Dean wore the other gray suit wearing a gray suit with an open collared white shirt and a gray bow tie.
Keith was wearing a black suit, which was larger to support his physical frame, as well as wearing the first buttons of his shirt open.
But the one that stole a couple of glances was Lucas, as he was wearing a Black suit, with a white turtleneck shirt underneath, as well as wearing black gloves and one of his masks, this time, in black and gold, to match the buttons of the jacket.
Chris: You guys went for the basics.
Chef: Except for mysterious and Captain Flash.
Lucas: Hey.
Shane: Hey.
Stan: Nothing too spectacular, but I guess they're not exactly bad.
Stan raised a 7, Chef a 6 and Chris a 6.
Chris: And with that they have a total of 19 points. Not bad, but the girls could beat them up.
Lucas: Good. At least I've got an outfit in case I end up in a Tuxedo match someday.
Dean: Where do you get so many masks to begin with?
Lucas: I have a bag full of them.
Keith: Well, maybe if you took it off, you'd be more presentable and we would have won a couple of points.
Lucas: That's something that will never happen.
Shane(muttering): hiding his face, like a good villain.
Chris: I don't want to interrupt conversations.
Bryan: Bullshit.
Chris: But it's time to give the ladies their place.
The 6 guys came down from the stage, and the girls came out on stage. Everyone was shocked.
Valerie was wearing a red dress with a skirt that looked like an inverted flower, shoulder pads in the same style, and had her hair tied in two pigtails.
Lacey had a black dress, with a skirt cut off at the hem, as well as wearing chains in the exposed area, the top looked like leather and she had her hair tied back with a black rubber band, as well as not wearing her bandana.
Helen had a similar fashion, with a black and red dress, the skirt was striped so when spinning it looked like a swirl, she wore thunder earrings and a hair clip with the same symbol.
Nikki was wearing a curiously underground dress, as the skirt was made up of patches of many bands, brands, etc. And the top was made of jean fabric, with a black fabric on the bra part.
Carly was wearing perhaps the most traditional, as it was a replica of the yellow dress she had seen earlier, coupled with the gold lipstick Valerie mentioned and a spiked headband of the same color. Dean was stunned to see her looking as radiant as the sun.
And finally, Jane finished off with a light purple dress, with a wavy line of a yellow tone that crossed from the shoulder to the uncut side, revealing her left leg. Lucas's jaw almost broke as his mouth fell open in amazement, while Shane had to lean back to keep from falling over.
-confessional-
Shane (gawking): Angels do exist
Luke (gawking): Fuego, fuego. Shushi llama a los bomberos.
-end of confessional-
Chris: Well those dresses are... something.
Valerie: Thank you. Carly and I put a lot of work into all the details and that each can reflect our personalities.
Keith: That explains why Jane's is so simple.
The gymnast rolled her eyes.
Chris: Well, they are unique, that's obvious. But maybe they're too unique.
Valerie: What?
Chris: This is a dance. Not a carnival.
Chris held up a sign with a 4. The chef with a 6 and Stan with a 5.
Chris: Only 15 points. Somehow they were worse than the boys despite having two fashion amateurs.
Carly coughed the back of her neck in embarrassment, while Valerie had a nervous twitch.
-confessional-
Valerie: Amateur? AMATEUR?
The dressmaker gave the camera a hard kick.
-end of confessional-
Chris: The screaming Laves get the first point.
The boys celebrated.
Chris: Don't celebrate victory yet, there are two phases left. It's time to judge your living room decorations.
They all walked to the stage, Chris set about analyzing both sides. The girls' side had the 4 tables upright, with white tablecloths with red details, there was a lettering that said "Congratulations" and their half of the stage had red curtains.
The boys' stage had the 4 tables forming an arch, their decorations were more along the lines of streamers hanging from balloons that were tied to the tables. And the stage didn't have anything too outstanding.
Chris: Mmm, not bad. Not bad. But, I like the detail of the sign on the girls' side, and the tables leave more room. So, I'll award the second point to you guys.
The girls celebrated, now they were even.
Paul: So it's all about the music... great.
Lucas: Hey, you calm, I nervous. Just go with the flow and we'll blow the stage.
Paul: I hope so.
Chris: for the third and possibly final part, we'll flip a coin, heads is boys, tails is girls.
The presenter flipped the coin and it ended up hitting Lucas in the eye.
Lucas: Ahhh. Lo hiciste a propósito.
Chris: Yeah. And look at that, the coin landed on tails, so the ladies get the first musical number.
The two musicians took the stage, Helen plugged in her guitar, and Nikki tried the microphone.
Helen: 1, 2, and a 1, 2, 3.
Nikki: Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
I have died everyday, waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything, take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this
One step closer
I have died everyday, waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed, I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
I have died everyday, waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed, I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more.
(A Thousand years. By Christina Perri)
Nikki ended up pulling back, with Helen catching her and carrying her in her arms. The two looked at each other, until the applause of the others brought them out of their thoughts and they broke apart in embarrassment.
Jane: Way to go girls.
Lucas: Not bad. Not bad at all.
Bryan: I respect the talent.
Chris: That was pretty good, now get on stage guys, I want to see how well or bad you do.
The mechanic and the wrestler got ready. Paul plugged in the pre-tuned guitar, while Lucas stepped in front of the microphone.
Lucas: Ella durmió al calor de las masas
Y yo desperté queriendo soñarla
Algún tiempo atrás pensé en escribirle
Que nunca sorteé las trampas del amor
De aquel amor
De música ligera
Nada nos libra
Nada más queda
Lucas focused his gaze on Jane, who noticed and her cheeks reddened as she fit the puzzle pieces together.
Lucas: No le enviaré cenizas de rosas
Ni pienso evitar un roce secreto
De aquel amor
De música ligera
Nada nos libra
Nada más queda
De aquel amor
De música ligera
Nada nos libra
Nada más queda
Nada más...
Nada más queda
Nada más queda
Nada más queda
Nada más queda
(De Música Ligera. De Soda Stereo)
The masked man pulled out a rose and threw it towards "the audience", being caught by Jane. Lucas took a bow, while Shane held back his anger.
-confessional-
Jane: I think I found the messenger.
-end of confessional-
Chris: Well. They both sang really well... but neither one totally won me over.
Lucas: What did you want? A reggaeton.
Chris: Slow music. It wasn't even necessary to sing. I guess we'll have to move on to the tiebreaker.
Dean: You did that on purpose, didn't you?
Chris: No.
-confessional-
All: Yes he did.
Chris: Yes I did. I may not be able to interfere in the drama as directly. But I can still move the stakes in my favor.
-end of confessional-
Chris: for this tiebreaker challenge. we'll have a little nod to our trip to Germany in season three.
The presenter pulled out a button and the wooden floor opened up, giving way to 6 dance platforms just like the ones in that challenge.
Chris: You will be put into dance pairs with one team member and opposite gender. Your goal is to knock each other down while trying to keep up, if you lose it and step wrong, you will receive a powerful shock. The first team to lose all 6 players will have to go to the bonfire ceremony.
Time for the dance duel.
The 6 teams went up to the platforms. The "dance couples" were Lucas and Jane, Keith and Helen, Dean and Carly, Bryan and Nikki, Shane and Valerie, and lastly, Paul and Lacey.
Helen: Something tells me that some of these couples were on purpose.
Chris: You're not wrong. Now, let's start dancing.
The chef turned on a player and some calm music began to play, but it had a couple of loud chords to give a fighting injection. The 12 of them started dancing trying to keep up, some were completely focused, while others even had a little fun.
Helen: Ok, I like this.
Keith: Well, I'm going to ruin your fun.
Keith tried to take her down with his arm, but the rocker evaded him.
Dean and Carly were facing each other following the music, but they didn't launch attacks, neither wanted to hurt the other, and that led to both of them making a false step and receiving the shock.
Chris: Dean and Carly are out.
Bryan didn't have much trouble following the music. Fortunately being an actor also led him to learn a little dance. Nikki for her part was trying to keep up, as she wasn't used to dancing to that music, she tried to trip the actor, but that only caused Amal to track and take the shock, still Bryan had to keep dancing.
Chris: Nikki is out.
Shane and Valerie danced determined to stay on their feet and take the other one down. Lacey ended up tripping because of her height and took Paul down with her.
Lacey: And that's why I hate dancing.
Keith slammed his shoulder into Helen knocking her off the platform, fortunately, Nikki caught her. Keith celebrated her action, but that caused her to electrocute herself by stepping wrong.
Chris: Let's do a close shot.
The chef changed the music to one that was more romantic but still had some strong chords. Lucas instinctively grabbed Jane by the hands and they began to dance a sort of aggressive Tango. Trying to knock each other down as they danced in sync. Shane got distracted by that and Valerie ended up kicking him off the platform.
Chris: Uh. Lucky she's not wearing heels.
Lucas and Jane continued their tango, side to side, carrying each other, Lucas managed to lock her leg, but instead of dropping her, he held her by her arm and waist and lifted her back up to continue the dance.
-confessional-
Lucas: I guess it doesn't matter if I have zero dancing skills. El Tango corre en la sangre Criolla.
-end of confessional-.
At one point Lucas stepped wrong and almost fell, but Jane returned the favor from earlier and picked him up. But when she lifted him back, she ended up making their lips collide in a kiss. They were both in shock and ended up taking the shock of the platform falling to the ground on top of each other.
Chris: Ohh, electrifying.
Jane: I'm sorry... n-no, that was it. We-we and...
Lucas could only babble.
Shane couldn't take it anymore and left the place so as not to make a scene.
Chris: All right, in view of the fact that the last players standing don't have partners. We'll stop the action for a second to put them on the same track.
The actor and the dressmaker exchanged determined glances, but deep down they were nervous, for now, victory and defeat was between the two of them. No excuses, no tricks. It was all or nothing. And the loser would be in danger of walking away.
Bryan: I will show no mercy.
Valerie got the message.
Valerie: Perfect. Because I'm wont either.
The two started dancing, trying to make the other one fall, tripping, pushing, false moves, everything possible to win.
Bryan (thinking): Time to take a page out of Lucas' book.
The actor grabbed her wrist and pulled her close for a kiss right next to her lips, this was enough to break the dressmaker's concentration, and let Bryan pull her off the platform.
Chris: The screaming moose win the challenge.
The guys celebrated, Bryan also stood up to celebrate and took a shock that sent him tumbling.
Valerie (thinking): well played Romeo. Well played.
Chris: Girls. I'll see you at the elimination ceremony.
Lucas and Bryan sat in the hotel lounge.
Bryan: Looks like you made a big step.
Lucas: Hey. It really was an accident. But I won't deny that I enjoyed it.
Bryan: So you wouldn't try to kiss her again in that situation?
Lucas averted his eyes in embarrassment.
Bryan: If you know that with the mask you can't see your blush?
The masked man ducked his head.
Bryan: Look, you should tell her directly, it's obvious that she drives you crazy.
Lucas: Maybe... maybe.
Unbeknownst to them, Shane overheard the conversation and clenched his fists. He wasn't going to give up that easy.
-confessional-
Bryan: Fool 1 is decided, tomorrow I'll cross fool 2's wires, and then. Let's enjoy the pyrotechnics.
-end of confessional-
The girls were in the ceremony area. This time, the other team was absent.
Chris: I have the votes. The following girls will stay another day on the island. Nikki.
The rapper caught the marshmallow.
Chris: Helen.
Helen: wohoo.
Chris: Carly.
Carly: Yeah.
Chris: two marshmallows left, and 3 girls. You are all here because you lost in one way or another on the dance floor. Valid reason to vote one out. But it won't be Lacey.
The Biker sighed in relief. Jane and Valerie watched the marshmallow nervously.
Chris: The dressmaker and the gymnast. Both lost the challenge at the lips of a gentleman, but the one who received forgiveness tonight is ...

Chris: Jane.
The Cree girl took the marshmallow in relief. While Valerie just folded her arms.
Valerie: I should have known. Seems like feelings are worth more than risk to you guys.
Carly: If it makes you feel any better. I didn't vote for you.
Valerie: Yeah, well. It doesn't matter, just stay alert and don't trust anyone. People know how to use masks to get close to you.
Nikki: Big words coming from you.
The dressmaker ignored the comment and went to the bus. Where Bryan was waiting for her.
Bryan: I guess that's the end of it. I insist I could have helped you.
Valerie: Oh come on. You were planning on dropping me sooner or later.
Bryan: Maybe... Or maybe not.
The dressmaker smiled and gave him one last kiss.
Valerie: Kick their asses. My beautiful rat.
Bryan: As you say, my beautiful Snake.
The redhead got into the vehicle and it drove off, while Bryan just walked back to camp through the woods whistling.
Chris: Ugh. I guess even evil love can be cheesy. What will Bryan's actions be now that his best ally is out of the picture? Will Jane and Lucas be able to speak to each other without stuttering? And is hero Shane about to switch to the dark side? All this and more in the next episode of Drama... Total... Camp Chaos.

Oh yes, there are new teams, tensions, there is love, there are confessions and there is chaos.
I wanted to put a bit of a twist on the dynamics and came up with the idea of using the battle of the sexes from season 1, but here it will be a bit more extensive, as the teams will remain ace until the ultimate merger
Now for our elimination. I needed to cut out an antagonist, and Valerie was the one. However, I wanted her karma to be somewhat light, and thus, she suffered a defeat in an area in which she has expertise (fashion), plus I liked the idea of humanizing her a bit by showing that she did enjoy some of Carly's company. Even though her goal was to manipulate her.
Moving on to the challenge, this one is based on one from user Dunsparce519, with a couple of extras added so it's not a cheap copy and paste.
Here the triangle plot gets more and more tense. And things are about to definitely blow up.
Valerie's words before she left are going to have an effect on Carly, and it's something that will be touched on in the coming episodes.
Helen and Nikki shared a few moments, Keith thinks he has Bryan in his pocket but it's actually the other way around, and intern Stan gets some camera time as a fashion judge.
In the next episode. Our teams will face a triple challenge, three different guys, with triple cameos, and an emotional brawl. Lots of triples for an episode that's a triple threat. Ok, I'll stop now.
