Total Drama Action (Complicated Chaos)

Chapter 16: Million Dollar Babies


Recap

Chis: "Previously on Total Drama Action, the caveman movies made everyone revert back to the stone age. After the team swap, Courtney and Geoff quickly aligned together even if Amy seems suspicious of Courtney's intentions, probably her own paranoia. Speaking of Amy, she hated her new team as she and Katie felt the pressure of being on the bottom of a tight group of four in Harold, Jen, Brick, and Leshawna even if Harold and Brick have a new fear of beavers. Katie got a new wig gift that she almost lost in the process. Meanwhile on the Grips Lindsay won an advantage for her team but ultimately the Grips fell short when Geoff fell for Amy, again. At elimination, Lindsay sacrificed herself for Beth, getting both Jay and Topher to vote her off stunning Geoff, Courtney, and Beth herself. But on the bright side for Beth it does seem like she managed to make things up with Jay. Will Katie keep her hair and her spot in the game, will the Gaffer alliance hold or is Brick's conscience finally starting to get the better of him, and finally when will one of these couples kiss and make it official? Folks we are almost at the merge, 11 players remain and there are only 10 spots in the merge. Someone is going home tonight, right here, right now on Total Drama Action!"

Boys Trailer

(trumpet sounds are shown waking Harold up)

Harold: "I can't take the shelling any more, sarge I just can't take it."

Jay: "Um Harold that was just a trumpet."

Geoff: "Yeah and dudes if any of you added trumpet sounds to your snoring, you are sleeping outside tonight. It's bad enough we have Brick's alarm clock."

Jay: "Pretty sure that's not possible, and this is probably a challenge."

Topher: "Oh it would be cool if it was a music movie genre?"

Geoff: "Really, I never thought of you as a music type of guy."

Topher: "Oh yeah definitely a fan of music, the industry, all that stuff."


Meanwhile Right outside the Girls Trailer

(Beth is shown twirling an item around while asleep)

Courtney: "Hey that's my PDA!"


Confessional: Courtney

"I kind of snuck this thing in this season, keeps me in touch with my lawyers if need be. Didn't use it until recently, mainly because Duncan always kept me busy. But I know if Chris finds out about this I am in massive trouble."


Back to Scene

Beth: "Huh (sees Courtney dive for the item) "Oh my goodness I must have been sleep twirling again!"

Leshawna: "Did you just say sleep twirling sweetie?"

Beth: "Yep, it's my own version of sleepwalking."

Courtney: "This PDA is my illegal right in this game, touch it again Beth and you will be out of here so fast before your feet touch the ground."

Beth: "I mean you already voted for me." (shrugs)

Courtney: "What did you say?"

Jay: "Hey Courtney back off. It was an accident and besides you shouldn't even have that here, none of us were allowed to sneak anything in."

Courtney: "You go mind your own business Jay, it's my PDA." (trumpet sound is heard as Chris comes and Courtney quickly hides her PDA)

Chris: "Morning sports fans, who is ready to put up a good offense?"

Chef: "Spaghetti here, get your piping hot spaghetti here."

(Leshawna, Amy, and Jen get theirs first)

Jen: "Ugh cold wash for this pajama outfit."

(each of the guys get hit)

Harold: "Woah, woah, that's a spitball."

Jay: "Trust me dude, that is not a spitball."

Chris: "Consider it breakfast."

Katie: "Pasta is for breakfast?"

Courtney: "Yeah seriously?"

Chris: "It's called carbo loading. Today's challenge is the sports movie challenge. Also I have an announcement."

Geoff: "This has to be the merge dudes."

Topher: "Yeah more than half of us are out at this point."

Chris: "Well it's a bit hard to explain."

Courtney: "Excuse me."

Chris: "You guys are in a kind of situation that I have dubbed mergatory. Let me explain. First of all former Gaffers, that being Jen, Katie, Amy, Leshawna, Brick, and Harold, one of you will win an automatic spot tonight in the Top 10 after our warm up challenge."

Harold: "Sweet."

Chris: "Important to note everyone is doing the warmup challenge. This will determine who will face off against who in the challenges. Win your match, you win immunity tonight and a spot in the Top 10."

Topher: "What other rules are there Chris, it can't be that simple?"

Chris: "Honestly it is, everyone votes for the remaining 5 players vulnerable and one of you guys will just miss out in the Top 10 so good luck everybody. First things first, eat 3 spaghetti balls here and then run 3 kilometers."

Leshawna: (with mouth full) "Chris you are cruel."

Chris: "Ooh, I almost forgot, there is a reward for the teams. The team that has the most people winning a matchup today will win an advantage in the first official merge challenge next week."


Confessional: Katie

"Oh my gosh, I made it to the merge-ish. I really hope I can show my more competitive side now that we are near the individual phase now."


Confessional: Courtney

"So glad to be near the individual portion of the game. I need my plan on breaking up that alliance to happen sooner than later."


Confessional: Harold

"Kind of happy to make it this far twice now. But now all of my allies and I are in danger with Courtney and Geoff spouting their nonsense off. Not to mention Brick's guilt is still consuming him."


Confessional: Brick

"I have broken my code so many times, betraying Duncan, pursuing a girl who has a boyfriend in Jen. I don't know what to do. This game, is becoming too much."


Pre-Challenge

(all the contestants are shown running to a football field set)

Chris: "Is that all you got sports fans? Man up!"

Leshawna: "All I got in me is a nap. What is this? Plastic lawn?"

Chris: "Astroturf, hello film lot. Today's final team-ish challenge will require sweat, guts, heart, and sweat."

Courtney: (raises hands) "Chris you said sweat twice?"

Chris: "That's because the Gaffers will also be dealing with Chef's sweat as well. They will be pushing Chef the length of a football field and keep in mind he just ate a ton of spicy food too."

Jen: "So we have to push Chef like he's a football dummy with all that sweat? Ew."

Chef: "Hey don't call me a dummy."

Amy: "Yeah no, I am not swapping sweat with an oversized jalapeno."

Leshawna: "Oh hell no, you are doing it with the rest of us on the team. Now get your cheerleading behind and push that dummy!"

Chef: "What did I say about you calling me a dummy?"

Amy: "I'll take that risk? (Leshawna picks her up) "What the hell?"

Leshawna: "Push that dummy now or you are going home."

Amy: "Fine."


Confessional: Leshawna

"Amy is such a massive pain in the ass. That girl needs to learn some respect."


Back to Scene

Chef: "Is that all you got? I can push better on my day off."

Katie: "Don't talk shit to me"

Leshawna: "Or me." (both push Chef fiercely knocking him over) "Guess we played hard ball."

Harold: "Katie, since when were you this athletic?"

Katie: "Just proving my worth to everyone here instead of my defeatist attitude last season."

Jen: "Girl, that's amazing."


Grips Warmup

(Grips try to run through a set of tires but everyone gets stuck in a pair of tires)

Beth: "These are not normal tires."

Geoff: "I know dudes, my feet are stuck."

Chris: "Awe wait until they get a load of the mouse traps."

Grips: (groan and shout in pain)


Mud Pit

(everyone sans Brick groans in pain)

Courtney: "I have never seen my high school football team do this before?"

Chris: "You're right Courtney. But we had some mud and barbed wire left over from the war challenge so we figured this would be the best place to use it."

Katie: "Ew, ew done!" (gets out of the mud)


End of Pre-Challenge

Amy: "Okay who won for us Gaffers and who gets immunity, obviously me since I am the most athletic."

Chris: "Nope. Here are the results. Facing off in our boxing match will be Harold and Beth as they scored the worst on their teams."

Harold: "Aw man."

Beth: "Really?"

Jay: "It's okay Beth, I probably didn't do much better."

Chris: "Right you are Jay as you will be facing off against Jen in our badminton match."

Geoff: "There wasn't a movie about badminton."

Chris: "There was Geoff and it was glorious. Anyway, you and Amy will be wrestling."

Geoff: "Cool, wait, Topher did better than me?"

Chris: "Yep, he and Brick will be facing off in a basketball game."

Topher: "What, why is it shocking I did decently well."

Geoff: "Dude you care way too much about your appearance."

Chris: "Final matchup will be cheerleading with Courtney taking on Leshawna."

Katie: "Wait, so.."

Chris: "That's right Katie. You did the best of everyone here and as such you have earned a spot in the Top 10 and are safe no matter what."


Confessional: Katie

(teary eyed) "I did it. I actually did it. I won the challenge for myself, after so many challenges where I didn't stand out in the crowd and the caveman challenge where Beth dropped me and I lost was me at my lowest as I sensed it was my time to go and instead today I pulled through. I know Trent and Sadie are gonna be proud of me and this is for both of you."


Boxing Ring

Chris: "In the right corner-ner-ner from the Killer Grips is-is-is the nerdy, braces free Beth!"

Beth: "Yay!"

Chris: "In the left corner-ner-ner is-is-is Screaming Gaffer Harold."

Harold: "Awesome now glove me (is wearing marshmallow gloves) but these are marshmallows?"

Chris: "Props Harold, so we don't hurt those pretty actor faces. Also in true boxing movie fashion we recommend you guys do this game in slow motion."

(bell dings)

Harold: (in slow motion) "You are going down Beth!"

Beth: (not in slow motion) "Take this!"

Harold: (gets hit in the face and dramatically throws himself back)

Leshawna: "How does he do the slow motion so effectively?"

Geoff: "Probably due to how much Duncan beat him up this season and last."

Harold: (in slow motion) "Waah!"

Beth: (takes a bite of the marshmallow) "Mm tasty!"

Courtney: "Don't eat it block it" (her PDA falls out)

Jay: "Uh Courtney."

Courtney: "Play dirtier."

Leshawna: (giggles)

Courtney: "What's so funny, spa stealer?"

Leshawna: "It's funny you pretend to care about Beth at all." (her and Courtney start trash talking across the boxing ring but gets drawn out as the camera focuses on Jay)

Jay: (quietly) "Topher check this out it's Courtney's PDA!"

Topher: (quietly) "Should we hand it back to her?"

Jay: (quietly) "No way I want to message my brother also just for the fun of it, selfie?"

Topher: (quietly) "What the hell, goofy pose though."

(both take a picture while Courtney is still distracted with both looking very silly with Topher putting his hands over his ears while Jay gives a fake panicked look)

Topher: (quietly) "Ooh I wanna see what's being said about us on the Total Drama website, wait a minute what is, holy shit!"

Jay: "They didn't."


Back to Challenge

Chris: "Round 2!"

Jen: "More like ew, ew, ew!" (Chef is wearing a showgirl outfit)

Chef: "Girl you are just jealous."

(Courtney closes her eyes as Jay puts the PDA back in her back pocket

(Harold and Beth keep fighting with Harold doing so in slow motion)

Leshawna: "Come on Harold baby, that's my man. You got the moves and the grooves."

Harold: "Thanks Leshawna, it's nice to feel loved- (Beth hits him off guard)

Courtney: "Yes!"

Chris: "One, two, three-"

Leshawna: "Harold get up!"

Chris: "Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten. The winner is-is-is-is Harold! Second person to earn a spot in the Top 10."

Beth: "But wait, I knocked him out?"

Chris: "He scored a ton of points for doing such great slow motion and I had to dock you points for eating the props, very unsportsmanlike female Mike Tyson."

Beth: "This is crap, I wanna beat Chris up now."

Jay: (grabs Beth from behind) "Beth, Beth, calm down, you'll be fine I promise."

Beth: (tears up) "I guess."

Chris: "Alright let's move on to round 2. Jay and Jen will be facing off in badminton."


Confessional: Beth

"I really thought I had it there, the challenges lately have been so overwhelming for me. Maybe Jay's right, but I don't feel safe."


Badminton Game

Chris: "Battling for immunity in this round is Jay and Jen."

Jen: "Against Jay? I will pull this off in a totally fashionable way with style."

Courtney: "You can do it Jay."

Chris: "Watch the birdie." (birdie squeaks)

Jay: "Aahh! It's alive!"

Chris: (walks up to Jay) "It's a birdie with a squeaker, is that okay Chicken Little. Point to Jen who will serve next time."

(Jen serves it and Jay misses the birdie shocking him)

Leshawna: "Woo-hoo bring it Jen, tell that boy who is the one in charge. Come on guys cheer her on."

Amy: "Go Jen, show her no mercy."

Harold: "Serve him up a huge bowl of humiliation."

Leshawna: "Jay, your chances of winning are about as real as your confidence."

Jay: (gets a determined look on his face) "I got this, I can do this."

Beth: "Come on Jay, I believe in you!"

(Jay is shown even more determined and does an amazing job at badminton until the birdie gets stuck in Jen's hair)

Jen: "Oh my gosh, get it out of my hair. Oh my gosh!" (Brick gets it out for her) "Thanks."

Chris: "We have a winner, Jay is safe tonight earning a spot in the Top 10."

(Beth, Topher, Geoff, and Courtney carry Jay in celebration as Jay looks proud of himself)

Leshawna: "You may have some game boy but you still don't have my confidence."

Topher: (to himself) "Oh no."

Jay: (gets off his teammates supporting him) "You just resent me for my fashion choices like this blue hoodie. Just like how you and Jen resent everyone here sans your boyfriends."

Leshawna: (looks offended) "Excuse me. What are you talking about, short stuff?"

Jay: "No, I am not backing down from this. I had a moment of triumph winning and earning my spot in the game and you ruined it for me just now, so consider this karma. Why don't you and Jen admit what you said about all of us on the spa day, or do you want Courtney to play what was said on her PDA."

Chris: "Woah, woah, hold on Courtney has a PDA? The producers and I made sure heading into this season that no one was allowed special advantages and that includes contact with the outside world."

Courtney: "Okay first of all, I am stealthier than I appear and your security team sucks Chris that being Tyler and Cody. Beth was the one who was sleep twirling my PDA like a baton this morning, why aren't you mad at Jay and Topher for touching my stuff?"

Chris: "Ignoring the fact you said Beth sleep twirled which I am pretty sure is not a thing?"

Beth: (off-screen) "It is."

Chris: "Anyway, as for you Courtney, since you broke a rule you are forfeiting your right for immunity tonight, you broke the rules and as such you must face the consequences."

Courtney: "What?"

Chris: "Not done. You will have an automatic penalty vote cast against you tonight and let me make this clear to all 11 of you, if anyone is caught cheating again in this game, the punishment will be more severe, so congrats Leshawna, since you don't have an opponent you get an automatic immunity pass into the Top 10. Oh and as for Jay and Topher what all did you guys do on her PDA.

Topher: "We browsed the Total Drama website and took some funny selfies."

Chris: "I don't know, Courtney hand me the PDA I need to see how funny these selfies are" (Courtney hands it over) "Oh Chef check this out!"

(The picture shows a second selfie with Topher and Jay making a goofy face with Topher pointing to Courtney with an L sign and Jay standing confident while smiling at the camera with Courtney is shown yelling in the background presumably at Leshawna)

Chris: "This is so funny."

Katie: "Not to bring this back to the initial conversation, but what about Leshawna and Jen talking about us?"

Jay: "Right it's on the Total Drama website, Leshawna and Jen, everything both of you said about all of us besides Brick and Harold when you went on that spa night."

Jen: "I don't remember saying anything bad."

Jay: "Really because (walks over to Chris) let me play what was said. Just so Topher and I aren't the only ones to know about it."

Leshawna: "There's nothing to see, you guys will be bored."

Jen: "Yeah I never said anything bad about anyone."


Limo On The Night of Spa Reward

Leshawna: "Ugh, Amy is mean for the sake of being mean, she likes to act like she is interested in Geoff but he's just a love sick puppy for her and she is just using him."

Jen: "Not to mention that ugly mole on her face, girl have you heard of cover up."

Leshawna: "Katie probably has half a brain cell this season. She doesn't want to admit it but Sadie is the brains of their little duo."

Jen: "Oh and did you see how she refuses to button her shorts? Girl you are skinny enough you can do that."

Leshawna: "Courtney likes to act all innocent, but I know she has it out for me and Harold probably because her relationship with Duncan isn't stable like Harold and mine is and she is just insecure she got cheated on."

Jen: "What about Beth and her fashion choices? Seriously, those pink slacks are not a good look for her."

Leshawna: "She actually wears a side ponytail, a side ponytail! Makes sense why Jay talks to her; he is a fashion disaster too."

Jen: "I know with that awful hoodie. Such a basic thing to wear, not to mention his pants are so blah. At least Brick does military which is neat to see"

Leshawna: "I mean Topher is the worst girl, at least Jay dresses basic, he dresses like Chris and acts like such a pretty boy but probably has the other half of the brain cell Katie's missing."

Leshaniqua: "Girls, I didn't realize you dealt with so many disasters."

Rock: "The Brick guy and Harold guy sound great."

(feed cuts)


Back to Scene

(everyone sans Harold and Brick glare at Leshawna and Jen while Harold looks down sadly and Brick looks nervous)

Leshawna: "You guys don't understand."

Jen: "Yeah that was outside the game, we didn't think anyone would see it."

Katie: "So wait you guys weren't joking when you said I don't have a brain cell and that I should button my shorts?"

Leshawna: "Heh yeah we both wanted to have you guys see it."

Katie: "Okay yeah no, I am a bit naive but yeah you are a total fraud Leshawna, how dare you shame me for voting you off instead of Duncan, at least he never talked that much smack about me. Also how dare you Jen for the button issue. I always did that to support Sadie since she feels insecure about her weight."

Jen: "Oh, wow, heh, sorry about that."


Confessional: Jen

"All I wanted to do once that was revealed was just curl up in a ball. I just lost my chance at immunity, and now me critiquing many people's fashion choices was exposed to everyone in the game. I will stay though, make my apologies and keep fighting in the game."


Confessional: Jay

"I was actually tempted to not say anything about Leshawna and Jen, honestly I was willing to work with them, as I am not personally a fan of any of Amy, Courtney, and I know Topher doesn't trust those two or Geoff and I didn't believe what Courtney and Geoff were spouting off about the Gaffer Final 4 alliance. But between the trash talking, the fact Harold and Brick were left out of it, and the insults they made about Beth. Yeah I want to flip on them tonight, even if Leshawna is now safe. Just need to make sure Topher is on board as well"


Confessional: Harold

"I am so pissed. Now Jen is vulnerable, in a way her and Leshawna exposed our alliance and the people I wanted to approach Jay and Topher are angry at them. The only good thing is that Leshawna is immune."


Wrestling Match

(everyone is sitting on the bench with Leshawna and Jen more distant from everyone else)

Amy: "I don't see what the big deal is, Leshawna and Jen just told some of us how it is."

Katie: "Really Leshawna called you mean and Jen poked fun at your mole."

Amy: "I've had worse thrown at me by others like my lame sister or my ex boyfriend. I can live with what she said"

Topher: (rolls eyes)

Leshawna: "You can?"

Jen: "Thanks girl."

Amy: "Neither of you push it. We are not BFF's."

Chris: "Silence! Now time for Round 3, Geoff will be facing off against Amy in Greco Roman wrestling."

Geoff: "Awesome! He shoots and scores!"


Confessional: Amy

"My heart isn't swayed by any party boy animal oozing a good time out of every pore. I am a fit, mean package of pure adrenaline, and competition."


Confessional: Geoff

"Oh dudes Amy is definitely a little package of something alright. But I won't go there with her, even though I could, remember what happened to her and Topher, yeah I don't want that to happen to me. Ugly."


Back to Scene

Geoff: (to himself) "Just compete, just compete."

(ball pit drops)

Geoff: (pops up) "Wait a minute I have to compete against her in a kiddie ball pit?"

Amy: (pops up) "Ew, how long has it been since this has been washed?!"

Chris: "Never of course, we got this ball pit from a carnival, a cheap skeevy one! Now play ball!"

(Amy and Geoff dive into the ball pool only for Amy to have Geoff in a chokehold)

Amy: "Come on Geoffrey boy let's compete!" (notices something) "Ooh a diaper shark!"

Geoff: "Put that in my mouth and I will vote you off."

Amy: (shoves the diaper in Geoff's mouth) "I'd like to see you try. Come on tough boy, not manly enough I guess"

Geoff: (throws Amy off into the pit) "That's it no more Mr. Nice Guy." (tackles Amy into the pit as everyone gasps)

Amy: (pops up out of the ball pit stunned for a second) "What the hell lives under here anyway a daycare?" (little kid appears)

Little Kid: "Momma?!" (Chef appears and takes the kid away)

Amy: "What the-"

Geoff: "Yo Amy, (puts Amy in the chokehold she put him in beforehand)

Amy: "Aack! I concede, I concede."

Chris: "Congratulations Geoff, you have earned the 5th spot in the merge, Amy you are vulnerable."

Geoff: (let's go of Amy) "Aw sweet dudes. I am the ball pit wrestler king. (notices she still looks exhausted) Oh are you okay?"

Amy: (gets up) "Don't talk to me."

Geoff: "Uh oh."


Confessional: Geoff

"I feel a bit bad but I wanted to win and after putting a used diaper in my mouth I figured it was fair for me to try and win. But I do feel bad that she is vulnerable tonight."


Confessional: Amy

"I don't even know what happened, I mess around with him, next thing I know a little kid screams out for his mother which threw me off my game, and I am lost on what makes Geoff think it's okay for him to treat me that way."


Basketball Match

Chris: "Well looks like we are at the final round since someone cheated. Brick and Topher you guys are up. Slam dunk competition, the most creative one wins the last immunity spot tonight. Play it up for the camera. Oh and if Topher wins his teammates and him get an advantage in the first merge challenge, if it ties no one gets the advantage"

Courtney: "Brick is pretty good playing it for the camera, he is a backstabbing snake with an alliance full of them. Traitor!'


Confessional: Brick

"After Jen and Leshawna's little incident, I just wanted to hide in the bleachers in shame for what they said and my association with Leshawna. A dunk from the bleachers would have been cool. Doubt anyone has done that."


Back to Scene

(Topher and Brick were standing next to each other)

Topher: "You okay dude?"

Brick: (gives a stare with no emotion)

Chris: "Yo, earth to Brick. You're up first." (hands basketball)

Brick: "I call this the Honor Dunk" (Brick runs up to the trampoline and just dunks it with no special effects)

Jen: "What the heck was that?"

Chris: "Okay, Topher let's see what you got."

Topher: "Yes Chris, I call this the Topher! (Topher proceeds to pose for the camera with the ball, spins around, goes to the trampoline and does a flip)

Chris: "Not too bad, and unlike Brick there was effort. And that should do it for the challenge."

Leshawna: "Wait can't Courtney and I do the cheer portion regardless, I have something I want to say."

Courtney: "Well I am not associated with that back talking cheater."

Leshawna: "Just give me the pom poms."

Chris: (sighs) "Fine, I'll be right back." (leaves)

Jen: (quietly to Leshawna) "Girl what the heck are you doing?"

Leshawna: (quietly) "Trying to make sure I leave with some friends and make sure you aren't the one going home tonight, follow my lead."

Chris: "Okay the challenge was gonna be to cheer for someone you admire and that deserves a cheer, does little miss cheater Courtney have one?"

Courtney: "You know what I don't actually because I want to put this stupid day behind me."

Leshawna: "I do, Jen come with me!" (grabs Jen and both grab Pom Poms)

Jen: "What the-"

Leshawna: "Courtney, Courtney, she may not be my pal, but with a PDA I imagine she is an organized gal."

Jen: "Oh I get it now, Katie and Geoff may not be smart, yet I imagine they both have a really big heart"

Leshawna: "That's it girl, Amy, Amy the queen of mean, she's got nice moves for a decent teen"

Jen: "Topher, Beth, and Jay are quite a trio, one's handsome, one's goofy, one's afraid, but they would look great in a really nice photo.

Leshawna and Jen: "Harold and Brick are quite the guys, they may be fearful but they got our eyes."

Chris: "Okay wow, that doesn't change much, but I will give you guys credit for effort. Nothing changes. Important to note, the now former Grips that being Jay, Topher, Beth, Courtney unfortunately, and Geoff all of you will receive an advantage in the next challenge provided if our two vulnerable ladies survive tonight. As for everyone I will see you in the theater tonight where someone will be the 15th player eliminated tonight and come one step short of the top 10. That someone being one of Brick, Amy, Courtney, Jen, or Beth"


Confessional: Leshawna

"Ugh, I was doing that to also save Jen tonight. Maybe she will stay safe. I did mean every word I said. It did help that I cheered for two people I am not the biggest fan of, but I am so scared for Jen and Brick."


Confessional: Jay

"It was nice of Leshawna and Jen to make that cheer as it felt genuine so I don't really hold many hard feelings. Like I said, I can't hold a grudge. But I can't believe I actually won a challenge. Never thought that would happen. But I am happy, happy to be safe now I need to figure out what to do about elimination tonight. See where Topher stands, and maybe, just maybe pull something big off tonight and shake this whole game up."


With Geoff, and Courtney

(both were on the western set)

Geoff: "Feels good to be immune, but do we know who to target tonight? I need to relay this back to Amy."

Courtney: "Look I would love to target Harold or Leshawna, but they are immune. Gosh where is Katie?"

Katie: (runs into the scene) "I am here. Sorry, I was just busy trying to make sure no one saw me coming over here."

Geoff: "I have to imagine that alliance of 4 is hounding you about the vote."

Katie: "They aren't yet, but I agree with you guys to not let that group go any farther."

Courtney: "Okay this little trio we have is great and with Amy we have four, but we need 6 to overthrow. Where is Amy?"

Geoff: "She will take care of the last couple of votes we need. Jay and Topher."

Katie: "What?! That's a horrible idea. Amy and Topher used to date, they hate each other."

Courtney: "Not to mention doesn't Jay also hate Amy?"

Geoff: "Yeah and I don't care, the more they fight against each other. The stronger that alliance of 4 becomes. I think we can all agree to not leave a group of those four together and that's why I say we get rid of Jen tonight."

Katie: "Jen, why her?"

Geoff: "Think about it dudes, she is smart, she is actually the glue of that group without her, Leshawna and Brick will be at each other's throats. Didn't you guys both say that up until the bank heist challenge Leshawna seemed dead set against Brick?"

Katie: "Yeah we did."

Geoff: "Exactly so who's the one person connecting both of them, Jen. Get rid of her, it makes Brick a total free agent heading into the merge, and after today's challenge it's not like his head is in the game."

Courtney: "Let's just hope Amy can get into Topher and Jay that they shouldn't work with that union."

(Jen, Leshawna, Harold, Brick, Jay, and Topher were all at a table)

Jay: "Hey, I just wanted to say thank you girls for the cheer, and sorry for exposing what was said on the spa day."

Jen: "No, it's fine. I am sorry for what I said, I get into fashion critique mode way too much, and it makes me come across kind of mean. Congrats on winning immunity."

Jay and Topher: "Thanks."

Leshawna: "Does stink that Geoff won immunity he's the biggest threat physically here."

Topher: "So I assume that means we vote for either Amy or Courtney?"

Leshawna: "You know it boy, those two are a bit more sneaky than Geoff and I don't trust either of them. I may have apologized to them, but I am not working with them. I would not mind seeing either of them leave tonight"

Jay: "Well Courtney is an option especially with that penalty vote, and she is still a wildcard."

Topher: "I agree, Courtney is also a good competitor."

Harold: "She's not a bad choice, but I do think she's still upset about Duncan leaving and is focused on that. Meaning she won't be someone to worry about for a while"

Topher: "Or she is just biding her time and waiting for the right moment to strike."

Brick: "Let's just uh, let's go back to that."

Jay: "Okay what about Amy. She's pretty dangerous too. She can be very persuasive and conniving as someone who was on a team with her.

Topher: "And someone who dated her."

Jen: "Yeah, but she's not very strong though. I honestly think any of us sans Jay no offense could beat her easily in a challenge. Courtney and Geoff are much bigger threats physically heck even Katie is."

Jay: "Thanks?"

Leshawna: "Wait a minute, I have an idea. I am just throwing it out there and if you guys don't want to do it, we won't do it. If Geoff is immune and we aren't worried about Amy and Courtney now. Let's go after Beth."

Topher: "Really?"

Leshawna: "Yeah just think about it. She is not really working with anybody anymore. Her leaving keeps the game at peace, and I think she's a lot craftier than the others sans maybe Geoff. Given the options it may not be a bad idea."

Jen: "Well Jay I know you've been close to her up until recently, would you want to do this?"

Jay: "I know that Beth has had her fair share of problems but shouldn't the plan be to get rid of the other 3 in Geoff, Amy, and Courtney"

Harold: "Don't worry Jay we will but Leshawna is right, Beth right now is the biggest problem to all of our games. We let her slip by any farther she may just win this whole game. We have the numbers, let's just eliminate her."

Brick: "I'm in." (looks outside and away from everyone)

Jen: "Me too."

Topher: "Okay."

Jay: (sighs) "Fine."

Leshawna: "You boys are okay with this right?"

Jay: "Uh yeah. I guess so."

Leshawna: "Okay let's break up and I will see you guys at the elimination ceremony." (Jay and Topher are the only ones left)


Confessional: Leshawna

"This plan has to work, the alliance has been exposed and playing it as safe as possible is the way to go."


Back to Scene

Topher: "Dude, what are you thinking? Because I have a lot I need to say."

Jay: "I wanna flip right now on them. I don't care. They didn't listen to any of our suggestions and I want to shake this game out to help both of us"

Topher: "Can I ask why, does it involve Beth?"

Jay: 'Look yes it does deal with Beth a bit, it's the fact they are targeting her now that's freaking me out. Beth is loyal to me, I know it, I know in my heart that if we make her feel safe she will stay with us and down the road they may be like I am not worried about Amy or Geoff let's target Jay or Topher."

Topher: "But Beth still betrayed me, and got rid of Sammy."

Jay: "Maybe but I can't in good conscience keep blindly following orders from them. If we keep with that group of 4 we will eventually run out of options and we will be up the creek."

Topher: "But I have Brick on our side. He will betray them. I know it. He told me about this alliance a while back."

Jay: "I am not leaving my fate in his hands down the road. I can't do it. Beth told me she wanted to be friends again with me and I imagine the same applies to you. Brick is shutting down emotion wise. This competitive strategic backstabbing game isn't for him and he needs out."

Topher: "Well then where the fuck are you gonna get the votes to send him packing, we only have of us two which I don't even want to do this I would rather get rid of Jen if we are targeting that alliance. I guess we have Beth on our side."

Jay: "Here's the other thing that side of Geoff, Courtney, and Amy is dysfunctional. You dated Amy, doesn't she get super insecure when other girls would talk to you?"

Topher: "Yeah that was part of the reason why she treated Sammy so horribly. Oh I get it, she is interested in Geoff but because Courtney is talking to him she will eventually betray Geoff and take Courtney out just not right now. But why is it Brick first even over Jen?"

Jay: "Get rid of Brick, and I can guarantee you Topher, that Amy, Geoff, and Courtney will still be after Leshawna and Harold. If we get rid of Beth we get rid of a loyal number. Get rid of Jen, the whole alliance falls apart with Leshawna and Harold."

Topher: "Shouldn't we want the alliance of 4 to fall apart?"

Jay: "No, I don't want it too. I want it to take a hit but not crumble, because we need to get Amy against Courtney sooner than later, but we can't until that alliance of 4 is whittled down but not collapsed."

Topher: "Sheesh Jay I had no idea you were this observant."

Jay: "Face enough adversity in your life and you become much more aware of your surroundings and how people feel, it's like my mother always told me, you may not be able to beat them with these (points at his flimsy arms) but you can always beat anyone with this (points at the head)"

Topher: "True. Never thought of it that way. Look I will talk to Beth at the next challenge, but if she still is head over heels in love with me, I am taking her out the next chance." (Brick walks in while it is shown Amy looks from the window unable to hear what was said)

Brick: "Gentleman, I overheard the end of your conversation."

Topher: "Oh shit."

Brick: "I am just gonna say if you are defecting from the alliance-"

Amy: "What is that soldier doing right now?"

(audio is cut and shows Brick and Topher shaking hands and Brick giving Jay a hug)


Confessional: Amy

"I don't know what those 3 boys were saying but knowing Topher he probably still has it out for me to get rid of me, I mean who wouldn't.


Gilded Chris Ceremony

Chris: "Alright our first merge-ish ceremony just to reiterate where things stand Courtney has a penalty vote, Also vulnerable is Amy, Beth, Brick, and Jen. Everyone else is safe. So get to voting."

Amy: "Time to go tonight."

Brick: "Sorry, Jen."

Courtney: "Time to go home tonight smack talker."

Jen: "Sorry Beth, wish we could have hung out more."

Beth: "This was the vote I was told to do, and I do think you're a great person."

Geoff: "Bye girl."

Katie: "Sorry, you are just too powerful to keep."

Leshawna: "Safe vote, no hard feelings."

Harold: "Bye Beth."

Jay: "I hope Brick knows what he is doing by asking for this. Sorry Jen"

Topher: (sniffles) "I hate this so much."

Chris: "Okay so obviously safe tonight is Katie, Jay, Harold, Geoff, Topher, and Leshawna the six of you are safe."

Geoff: "Alright"

Topher: (flatly) "Yay!"

Chris: "Oh and tonight's vote is a mess let me tell you. Safe with no votes however is Amy!"

Amy: "Of course."

Chris: "Unfortunately safe with only her penalty vote is Courtney."

Courtney: "Yes."

Chris: "Next person safe with 3 votes is… Beth!"

Harold and Leshawna: "WHAT!?"

Beth: "Phew!"

Jay: (mouths) "I got you!"

Chris: "Oh and this is great the final Gilded Chris goes to

… nobody, it's a tie."

Everyone: "WHAT?!"

Chris; "Heh, heh that's right Brick and Jen you guys tied, luckily we have a revote to determine who goes home. We were gonna do a tiebreaker challenge but we are running a bit short on time, give a quick plea on why you think you should stay. Jen you're up."

Jen: "Guys I am sorry about what was said at the spa day. I want to stay here to prove I belong here. Just please keep me."

Chris: "Brick you're up"

Brick: "Please, if you guys are keeping me over Jen don't please. She deserves another shot here, she messed up once with talking behind people's backs. I messed up so much by trying to kiss this amazing lady standing beside me not because Jen isn't perfect she is more than perfect, but by doing that knowing she has a boyfriend. Betraying my word when I promised Duncan I would keep him. So if you are voting for her, vote for me instead."

Chris: "Okay we are gonna go in alphabetical order. So Amy you are up first."

Amy: "Gonna keep this simple, Brick I respect your request, but Jen made fun of my birthmark so consider this payback. I vote for Jen. Again!"

Chris: "Okay Beth it's your turn."

Beth: "I made a mistake once in this game, and as such I want to play fair and honest, Jen, I am not voting for you, I am voting for Brick."

Chris: "Okay Courtney you're up."

Courtney: "I vote for Jen. She is too much of a threat."

Chris: "Next is Geoff."

Geoff: "I am sorry but I have to go with Courtney on this, Jen I am voting you off."

Chris; "Next up Harold."

Harold: (teary eyed) "I am gonna miss you so much, I vote for Brick. My best friend, and thank you for being there for me."

Brick: "You're welcome."

Chris: "Jay you're up."

Jay: "I vote for Brick. I hope you don't regret your time here, because you are a cool dude."

Chris: "Katie you're next."

Katie: "I need to prove loyalty and trust to the people I am with. I vote for Jen. Sorry!"

Chris: "Okay where we stand it is 4 votes Jen, 3 votes Brick if the next vote is for Jen, she is out. Leshawna you're up."

Leshawna: (teary eyed) "I can't vote for my girl Jen. She is my best friend here and everyone knows it. I am sorry Brick, I am voting for you and I am sorry for how I treated you a couple weeks back."

Brick: "It's all fine."

Chris: "Okay Topher it is all up to you. Your vote decides who is going home. No pressure."

Topher: "Thanks."

Chris: "No problem."

Topher: (emotional) "Look I, I don't want to do this. It already killed me inside voting for you once tonight Brick. I turned you into a monster in this game. Because Brick gave me the okay to reveal this as he knew it would come to a tie and I have his blessing to reveal this. Back in the early part of this game, he and I formed an alliance. Ugh! Fuck I don't want to do this. Anyway, I encouraged him to be sneaky and play sides, and play hard. I turned Brick into something he is not which is a schemer and that all came to a head when he voted Duncan off. Brick, you were my first friend here, and I regret so much how things turned out."

Courtney: "Get on with it."

Topher: "Fuck off Courtney. Anyways, where was I. Oh right, (deep breath) Brick I am voting for you tonight, you are my friend you want out and I want you to know. You are an amazing person and please never hold your head down in shame because tonight you did the right thing for your sake and you put yourself first. (grabs Brick into a hug) I am gonna miss you so much."

Brick: "I am gonna miss you too."

Chris; "I hate to break up this good TV but I do have to make it official. Brick you have been eliminated from Total Drama Action."

Brick: Thank you sir."

Jen: "Brick, I…. I…."

Brick: "Look whatever happens from here on out, I want you in my life forever even as a friend, more importantly I want you to stay strong, tough, determined, fierce, and fight to the end for both of us. Don't let my sacrifice go in vain. I will be rooting for you the whole time."

Jen: "I… (kisses Brick on the lips and quickly runs away) I'll miss you."

Brick: "Wow!" (enters the Lame-o-Sine soon after)


Confessional: Jen

(crying) "He sacrificed himself for me. He cared for me so much more than I ever realized. I know now what I have to do, win this for him. Rock I am so sorry babe. I am so, so sorry."


Confessional: Topher

(Looking down) "Brick told me he knows that Jay and Beth are voting for him and he wanted me to join on board along with him himself. He told me this cutthroat game isn't for him and to let him go. It was the hardest thing ever as he was genuinely my friend. The good news is that I have Jay as someone to bounce strategy off of. The bad news: neither side really got what they wanted. I do owe it to Jay to hear Beth out. But man Jay and I probably have some damage control to do."


Confessional: Amy

"I couldn't overhear that stupid conversation between Brick and Topher, but I guess Topher was an idiot and got rid of him. Oh well. Voting for Jen proves my loyalty to Geoff and them even if I am keeping an eye on Courtney and Geoff. I don't trust her."


Confessional: Leshawna

"My core group is still together, but seeing Jen almost leave crushed me. Harold and I need to be careful. The alliance has been exposed and I am back to the drawing board. I need to think of something fast."


Final Words: Brick

"That's the end of my journey here. Topher, I don't have any hard feelings and you are awesome. Harold and Leshawna same to you and Harold thanks for being a true friend. I did not like what this game brought out in me, feelings and impulses that I didn't even know existed. Jen, I will always have a crush on you and love you, but even as a friend I can live with that. Good luck to you especially and no hard feelings for what you said."


Author Notes

So I imagine Brick leaving is a shock. I knew for a while I wanted the final pre-merge boot to be someone who was significant to the story but not a main main character. As for Brick himself, writing him has been so much fun as he has been one of the more complex figures with his gameplay and the dynamic with Jen.

So let me first start off with why I casted Brick into this season. I was always a fan of Brick in Revenge and I knew I wanted him in this season but he was one of the only people not mentioned in Season 1 (Cody's Second Try) so I needed to figure out what story to do with him and how he would interact with the cast since besides Dawn, Lightning, and Staci no one else from Revenge was in the cast and I did not want Brick to be filler since I already had enough of those characters. That was when I remembered Brick's desire to go to fashion school at the end of Season 4, saw Jen was one of the people I was saving for Season 2 and knew I had something good.

Then came the complicated part, I had already established Jen as in a relationship with Rock. That was when I realized I could make it so much more messy and complex with Brick as he is a man of his word, and all about honor, but due to his love with Jen and revealing his want for fashion school (that scene will be in our deleted scenes chapter near the end, stay tuned for that) he begins going against what he should, has a crush on a girl with a boyfriend, forms a cross team alliance with Topher, plays the middle of his team for the longest time and then he betrays Duncan despite giving his word and feels too much guilt for that.

Now for his elimination and why I cut him now. I debated constantly in this chapter who to get rid of, trust me but I landed on Brick as it felt like Brick's role in his and Jen's story was coming to a close, and the guilt part of betraying Duncan wasn't something I wanted to keep going so I knew I had to eliminate him soon. The problem was the way the Gaffers were set up, there was no way I could get rid of him so I decided to have this merge-esque round, with the showdowns and the smacktalk at the spa from Jen and Leshawna push Brick over the edge and want out of the game, since he didn't want to see the girl he liked so much be in danger and no longer partake in all the messiness of this season. That's why the vote became so complicated as just to reiterate this is how it ended up

Brick 4 (Brick, Jay, Topher, Beth)

Jen 4 (Amy, Courtney, Geoff, Katie)

Beth 3 (Leshawna, Harold, Jen)

Courtney 1 (Penalty Vote)

Re-Vote:

Brick 5 (Harold, Leshawna, Beth, Jay, and Topher)

Jen 4 (Amy, Courtney, Geoff, and Katie)

Also everyone else who was vulnerable (Jen, Amy, Courtney, and Beth) I still had some story with as I did the immune players and I wanted to Brick end on a high but very emotional note/exit and hopefully be a blindside for the people who read this.

Other Notes: Next Chapter is the Final 10 where we get the fallout from this Brick vote, the Spy film genre, and much more. I have some rough ideas for this next chapter, and I have an idea of whom I am gonna eliminate but nothing is concrete. Don't expect this out until possibly the new year as it is gonna be a long one, per usual.

Please leave a review, comment, message me your thoughts on this chapter, all praise and respectful criticism is welcomed until next time see ya!
