"Last time on Total Drama Lights Camera Finale," Chris said, narrating a summary of the previous episode. Flashbacks occur as he retells these events.

"The team participated in a bet off of who can survive the longest without doing a habit. Some had it easy, others not. Tricks and deals were made during the challenge, courtesy of Georgia and Jett who both teamed up to work with each other. Daniela had some fun quality time giving a nice massage to Knick. Janet and Edgar also had fun with each other, somewhat. At one point the remaining contestants in the challenge got into a sudden death match of who leaves the tent loses it for the team. Daniela managed to annoy Casey so much that the stuntwoman caused her team the loss."

"Luckily, the Freezing Grips had someone else to blame for their loss. That was Tamera, who was fooled by Georgia into sabotaging her own team."

The flashbacks end. Chris is shown around the lot watching Meredith carrying large amounts of film equipment like c-stands, cameras, and lights to him.

"Three down, twenty-one to go!" Chris exclaimed contently. "Which contestant will be the fourth eliminated from the final season? Find out now on…"

Meredith, no longer able to withstand the weight of all equipment accidentally drops them on Chris. She looks nervous and worried. This could come out of her paycheck.

"Total, Drama, Lights Camera Finale," Chris muffled from under the equipment.


The theme song for Total Drama has an orchestral vibe to it while still being groovy. A camera pops out of the entrance to the Crowstillo Caverns from Crowstillo Island. Another camera pops out from a carnival booth. Then one shows itself from a clothes racket at the film lot. A smooth transition occurs on Camp Wawanakwa's high cliff. The camera drone dives into the water around the cliff, creating a splash.

Dear mom and dad, I'm doing fine

The full cast of Total Drama Island is shown inside the dodgeball court. Everyone is throwing dodgeballs at each other. It looks to be the Screaming Gophers on the left side of the court facing the Killer Bass on the right side of the court. Teens throw and get hit. Owen throws a fastball.

You guys are on my mind

The fast-moving dodgeball transitions to a tire. The camera pans out to show Duncan driving the Action Cast in a tram. He looks to be annoyed by Courtney's talking. This distracts him and crashes the tram with him and the cast into something off-screen. The smoke released from the tram enlarges.

You asked me what I wanted to be,

The smoke disappears to show the jumbo jet soaring in the sky.

and I think the answer is plain to see

The World Tour Cast jumps out of the jumbo jet with parachute bags. Alejandro winks at the audience before deploying his parachute. Quick zoom on the parachute.

I wanna be famous!

The parachute descends to show Cameron in his robotic suit fighting Lightning who has armor and carrying a mannequin leg with spikes at the 'coliseum' Chris build. The rest of the Revenge Cast are sitting at the bleachers cheering for either combatant. The fight ends when Cameron charges a ball of electricity on his iron suit's right fist and shoots at the camera. Though, it is clear it is for Lighting from the athlete's person of view.

I wanna live close to the sun

It is night and the blue madness full moon is glowing brightly. Mike inhales and turns into Mal. Someone throws Mr. Coconut at Mal's head off-screen to bring Mike back in control.

Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won

The camera pans to the right to show who throw Mr. Coconut. It is Zoey, who is smiling happily at getting her boyfriend back. The rest of the All-Stars cast is running away in the background from rabid fluffy rabbits.

Everything to prove, nothing in my way

Another transition displays itself. The Pahkitew Cast is inside the labyrinth of the artificial island running away from scuba-bear and a mechanical orange cat. The cat stops to breathe fire from its mouth.

I'll get there one day

The fire stops and the next part shows the finalists of Crowstillo Island trying to complete the obstacle course. The rest of the cast is cheering for their favorite at the peanut gallery. Knick, Saraphina, and Casey take out one of their accessory clothes and throws it at the camera.

Cuz' I wanna be famous

The trench coat, scarf, and jacket fall from the camera lens. The Back to the Islands Cast is shown at Boney Island's Fun Zone using anti-mutant guns with the orange liquid in it to turn the mutants from the show into normal animals. Jeremy accidentally shoots some liquid at the camera.

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

The cameraman wipes off the orange liquid with a small handkerchief. Once done, at a cliff of Crowstillo Island, Yves and Knick are shown doing a sword battle against King Crowstillo. In the background, the rest of the Radiant Cast faces off Henry in his robotic suit. Henry activates a laser cannon from the suit's left arm and unleashes a laser blast.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!

Once the laser blast disappears from sight, the Calamity Cast is riding the roller coaster at the carnival. Some are frightened, some are having fun. JJ takes out a colorful streamer-like grenade from her wig and throws it into the air. The grenade explodes and streamers cover the screen.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!

The streamers end up at the Glided Chris Awards stage where the Lights Camera Finale Cast is getting ready to have a picture taken. The streamers end up on everyone. Some find this annoying while others continue to smile. All contestants, Chris, Chef, and Casey whistle. Once the song is over, the picture is taken and the intro ends.


The episode starts with Georgia and Jett meeting up at a palm tree in the prehistoric set.

"Tell me why you had to interrupt my fifteen-minute shower to walk all the way here and get sweaty which will make me need another shower," Georgia cut right to the chase.

"Because No Act you have been exposed," Jett rudely responded. "Your little stunt was exposed by Tamera. Now my team knows your intentions and are going to try harder to win to eliminate you."

Georgia turns around from the runaway to think to herself. "Hmm, that can be used as an advantage."

"That's right you're screwed, wait what?" Jett paused, confused by what the actress said.

"Thank you for giving me this valuable information Jett," Georgia turned around to look at the Freezing Grip. She begins to walk away. "Have a quite wonderful morning."

Confessional – Jett – Freezing Grips

He is stunned by the tranquil reaction his partner gave. "W-what? She got exposed! They're out for her and she's taking it calmly? What kind of competitor reacts like that when their plan has been revealed? Either she's actually a decent actress or is just stupid."

Confessional – Georgia – Blazing Gaffers

She smiles joyfully. "The Freezing Grips having their focus on me is a nice advantage. I mess with their heads, get their eyes on me, and my teammates will take care of winning today's challenge. This tactic will stop working eventually but might as well take it right when is ripe."

End Confessionals

Georgia enters the Blazing Gaffers girl trailer, done taking her second shower. She closes the door gently and notices her teammates looking at her with wide smiles except for Lucy who is sitting on the part of her shared bunk bed. Niu is standing in the center with Sua and Janet beside her. Niu is holding a twelve-inch carry-on luggage bag in her hands.

"Anyone care to enlighten me on these charming times?" Georgia politely asked.

"Niu wants a make-over," Janet squealed. "We're going to make her as beautiful as the Earth."

"Polluted?" Lucy joked then lets out a small chuckle.

"Niu wants to find a different way to impress Buck," Sua told Georgia as she grabbed the goal digger's left arm. She brings herself and her teammate closer to Georgia. "Lucy thought you could help Niu get into that southern slang stuff since you probably had roles on acting it out."

"Lucy?" Georgia questioned, looking at the detective. "And what will she be offering?"

"I gave Niu the ideas," Lucy answered proudly yet not prideful. "Well, just for who gets to do what. It would be nice to help a teammate in need, right Georgia?"

"Yes, yes it would," Georgia admitted, knowing Lucy's angle. She turns her head to face the carry-on luggage Niu has in her hands. "And what could be inside there?

"Oh, inside here is an outfit my brother Jun designed for me," Niu said as she gets out of Sua's grip. "I told him I wasn't going to wear it because of how…" She blushes. "It looks, but this might be the only chance Buck will notice my crush on him."

"Darling, you're too good for him," Georgia stated smugly. "A relationship with that hillbilly won't last long at all."

"Like how yours did with Pharoah?" Niu retorted, not liking the jab the actress is doing at her crush.

Georgia gasps, repulsed by the comment. "Why you little…"

Niu makes her eyes big and sad like a cat wanting to be petted.

"No, stop that," Georgia commanded, trying not to fall into the gaze.

Niu continues her pleading eyes, quivering her lip, and allowing some tear-jerkers to come down her eyes.

"Ugh, fine, I'll help you get with Buck," Georgia gave in.

Niu goes to hug the actress. "Thank you so much!"

Sua grabs Niu's luggage, puts it on the floor above the carpet, and unzips it. The Korean looks inside to see the outfit. She is amazed. "Wow, your brother did good work on making this. He also left you a note."

Janet directs Niu to sit on the chair next to the cabinet so the space geek can put makeup on the goal digger. Sua passes the note to Janet and the receiver passes it to Niu.

"Buck is totally going to check you out once we girls are done," Janet assured Niu, having her likable charming smile not escape her face once.

Niu blushes, ready for her plan to work as she reads her brother Jun's note.

"Are you using my makeup?" Georgia asked Janet, feeling disgusted.

Confessional – Lucy – Blazing Gaffers

"Niu should just confess to Buck already. Pretty much everybody here knows she has a huge crush on him. I tried to explain to her that, but she's playing hardball just like Buck is. Though sometimes I think Buck is not intentionally being oblivious and just is. Which is weird, considering Violette was able to manipulate him during Back to the Islands."

End Confessional

Maverick, Buford, Edgar, and Pharaoh are inside the Blazing Gaffers trailer. The boys minus Edgar are doing pushups.

"So, can anyone explain to me why you three are doing pushups?" Edgar asked, sitting on his bunk bed.

Seconds passed as his teammates continues doing exercises. Maverick decides to stand up to explain to Edgar the reasoning.

"Looks like we got our first quitter," Buford joked as he continues his pushups against Pharaoh.

"The boys and I are just having a friendly competition on who can do the most pushups in one sitting," Maverick answered Edgar smiling.

Pharaoh is unable to keep up with Buford and hits the ground.

"Nice," Buford acknowledged his win and stopped. He stands up and wipes the sweat off his forehead with his left arm.

"You're welcome to join our exercise routines. We might even make our own obstacle course for fun," Pharaoh offered Edgar.

"I'll pass," Edgar answered dryly, finding no fun in exercising.

"You're not a real man if you don't exercise," Buford joked to the emo.

Maverick and Pharaoh let out a chuckle.

Edgar rolls his eyes. He understands the joke, but he still will not do it.

Confessional – Buford – Blazing Gaffers

"Step one, mess with Edgar a bit then I'll smooth my way into a conversation. He's going to be a bit tougher to befriend than I thought since he's not sociable. But that's not going to stop me from getting him into an alliance."

End Confessional

Raymundo, Axel, Knick, and Christopher are each sitting on their bed inside the Freezing Grips trailer. Axel's teammates notice his grieving posture and dejected face.

"We need to get rid of Georgia pronto," Axel told his teammates, looking at the carpet.

"Axel, do not go into this intense phase again of targeting a single player," Christopher advised as he gets up from his bed.

"Intense phase?" Knick wondered, getting up from his bed as well.

"Axel was targeting Caleb throughout his run in Carnival Calamity and failed to get his opponent eliminated," Christopher informed, taking a quick glance at Knick before looking at Axel again.

"Well, it's a good tactic depending on how you handle it," Knick concluded. "But I agree with Christopher, is better not to engage on just going after Georgia."

Axel scoffs at Knick as he gets up from his bed. "Of course, you will say that. Bet you want Georgia to cause more eliminations to make it easier for you to stay in the game."

"For a so call gentleman, you're pretty terrible at acting like one," Knick wisecracked.

"I agree with Axel," Raymundo took a stance, trying to prevent drama from coming to his teammates. "By focusing on Georgia and getting her team to lose we save a lot of potential harm she can do."

"How do we know that's what Georgia wants?" Knick questioned the idea. He adjusts his beige trench coat. "I've been teammates with her. We give ourselves into wanting her out we will be blinded by the other Blazing Gaffers. Who's to say they won't do their own deeds in order to win?"

"Yeah, but I have been teammates with Georgia too," Raymundo reminded, giving his own point. "When she set her eyes on something she will do anything to own or get rid of it. Is why she planned my elimination since I was a threat in my first run."

"You were a threat?" Knick asked baffled. "Georgia really knows how to pick off the players," He finished sarcastically.

"Knick, stop," Christopher advised his alliance member.

"I don't know how you see the case of allowing Georgia to stay benefits anybody," Axel gets close to Knick. The two Freezing Grips stare at each other with poker faces. "If you were smart enough, you know making Georgia look bad in front of her teammates sends her packing tonight."

"And if you had the slightest idea of how the game works, Georgia is already at the bottom of her team given how she treats them," Knick responded back.

"Then explain why Lilith was eliminated," Axel required an answer.

"Oh geez, let me think. Is the correct answer finalist ring a bell to you?" Knick retorted.

Raymundo gets up from his bed worried. "Hey, guys chill out. Let's head to the tent and pop up a couple of drinks."

"Axel and Knick, this is not necessary," Christopher agreed with the beach bro wanting peace. "Just do your own plans for the challenge."

"If Yves was the one to take the fall, you'll be on my side," Axel stated, not leaving his gaze on the journalist.

Knick glares at his teammate for that comment. "Yves and Georgia dislike each other so much that she will not let Georgia manipulate her into doing something that stupid. But let's face it, Axel, you seem to be the type of guy who likes making their life harder. You and Tamera will never get together."

Axel grabs Knick by his green shirt, lifts the journalist up a bit, and brings his teammate to a wall. Knick is not scared in the slightest.

"Take it back, now!" Axel exclaimed furiously at Knick.

"Why should I take it back? You didn't have the guts to tell her, and you wasted it. You're doomed to fail Axel. In this game and in your love life," Knick backed down from apologizing.

Axel raises his left fist to punch Knick in the face, but Christopher grabs his arm to prevent a fight.

"We're done with this," Christopher spoke with authority. "Take a shower to blow off steam or go to the prehistoric set to get the anger out of your system."

Axel tries to break free, but Christopher has a strong grip on him. He lowers his arm so Christopher can let go, which the warrior does. Without saying a word, Axel releases his grip from Knick and storms off, leaving the trailer.

"Follow him," Christopher told Raymundo.

"Right," Raymundo nodded and heads out of the trailer.

Knick puts his hands in his trench coat's pockets. He notices the frown Christopher has.

"What?" Knick asked bluntly. "Something on my face?"

"What did we talk about being nice and understandable to our teammates?" Christopher reminded as he crosses his arms.

"He had it coming," Knick said. He looks to his left, getting gloomy with a frown. "Trying to make my girlfriend feel like an incompetent buffoon."

Christopher notices the change of tone and body language Knick has. Is colder, confused, and hurt.

"Where is your girlfriend by the way," Christopher softly asked. "She did get an invitation to be here in the final season."

Knick walks to the small cabinet to see himself in the mirror. "I don't want to talk about it." He looks at his alliance member. "Sorry for continuing to mess up the plan we have. I know I need to do better. I just… need to write some stuff alone."

Confessional – Christopher – Freezing Grips

He is concerned about the journalist. "Judging by his reaction to Axel talking about her and Knick being a bit more cold-hearted, it seems like my alliance partner is dealing with hardships between him and Yves. It will be hard to help since Yves isn't here, but I'll do what I must to at least make Knick feel a bit better. Especially since he's practically enemy number one on the team."

End Confessional

Saraphina, Daniela, Melissa, and Kristie are inside the Freezing Grips girls' trailer, getting ready to head to eat breakfast.

"Wonder what today's challenge will be about," Sara pondered, looking out a window to see baby birds in a nest on a tree branch. The mother bird comes in with food and vomits on each baby bird's mouth. "Bleh, talk about déjà vu."

"As long is not a sports movie theme challenge," Melissa added before looking at Kristie's phone. "What are you texting about in your blog?"

Kristie is texting rapidly. "How Georgia ruined the number one potential couple forming," The fan answered as she now violently presses her fingers on the phone's keyboard.

"Can't win them all," Daniela stated with a chill smugness as she opens the trailer door. "Chef is cooking today, so I expect it to be gruel. Let's head down there first since the first batch is better than the second. There's barely any difference, but I'll take what I can get."

"Speaking of first, you don't have the title to yourself anymore," Sara told Daniela, grabbing the door's handle, and closing it so the girls can have a private discussion together.

"What do you mean?" Daniela wondered, turning her head to her left to look at the sweet bad girl. Melissa and Kristie also ponder too.

Sara puts her left hand on her waist and raises her right hand a bit to act complacently. "Well, your performance cost us the challenge last time. Sure, you won the superhero challenge…"

"Superhero vs supervillain challenge," Kristie corrected.

"Whatever," Sara rolled her eyes. "Point is I should be in charge now." She crosses her arms with her smug look. "I haven't screwed up."

"Yet," Daniela countered, pointing her right index finger at her teammate. She drops the finger-pointing. "Look, Sara, I'm the leader of this team. I give the commands."

"Unless it's Knick," Sara remarked.

"You know he's a different case," Daniela casually brushes off the remark. "I was team leader of the Skull Serpents. Which by the way, won the most challenges in Back to the Islands."

Sara stops crossing her arms. "Okay, but…"

"I'm better than you," Daniela interrupted. "Don't be in denial, we all know I'm more suitable."

"I can see you inherited Knick's cockiness and ego for being such a fan," Kristie mused as she adjusts her glasses. "Guess you'll choke in the finale if you get that far."

Daniela opens her mouth to throw an insult, but Melissa decides to get into the conversation to ease the tension.

"Hey girls, let's not fight over who gets to lead. At the end of the day, as long as we win today's challenge, we're all good," Melissa advised. "But since I figure you two will butt heads," She refers to Sara and Daniela. "Why don't we wait until Chris explains today's challenge to determine who should be the leader?"

Sara and Daniela stare at each other for a good few seconds.

"Fine, we'll wait," Both Grips girls spoke in unison.

Confessional – Melissa – Freezing Grips

"Feels good not going for the team leader. I just get to kick back and let the others make themselves mess up. Wait, was that too competitive sounding? It feels like it did. Sorry, still working on that."

Confessional – Saraphina – Freezing Grips

"I don't want to say it in front of her, but Daniela has a point. She's a stuntwoman so she knows how the film industry works. And given this season takes place in the film lot, people will side with her no matter what." She huffs. "Which stinks because I want to prove that my placement in Crowstillo Island isn't a fluke."

End Confessionals

Simon, Buck, and JJ are the first to arrive inside the crafts and services tent.

"I'll talk to you more in a bit," Simon told JJ and gives a wink.

JJ gives a thumbs up, picks up a tray, and leaves the two boys alone to be served breakfast by Chef. Simon and Buck sit at the Blazing Gaffers picnic table.

"Trying to score her dude?" Buck teased, elbowing Simon's right shoulder.

Simon laughs. "Yeah, hasn't been easy though. I tried asking Melissa for advice, but she keeps avoiding me every time I bring it up." He rubs the back of his head, glancing briefly at JJ who is happily eating her breakfast gruel. "And I'm not exactly a smooth talker myself. You have a girl into you, how do you do it?"

"What girl?" Buck wondered confused.

Simon chuckles half-heartedly. "Come on bro you know." Is his turn to nudge Buck's shoulder with his elbow. Noticing Buck's blank expression, Simon questions his friend. "Dude, it's Niu."

"Niu?" Buck pondered and did a slight snicker. "She's not into me. She just likes hanging around me as good friends."

"Dude, I asked her earlier if she likes you and she started drooling," Simon stated. "On my shoes." He lifts up his right leg to show Buck his shoe covered in drool.

"She must be very hungry then," Buck concluded. "I get like that when working up an appetite back at the farm." He thinks of the food back at his farm and rubs his tummy. "Hmmm, cheeseburger."

Simon is dumbfounded by his friend's obliviousness.

Confessional – Simon – Freezing Grips

"Everyone on the island knows Niu is into Buck. Everyone except him. How does he not see it!? Furthermore, I suck at getting dating advice. Maybe I should talk to Christopher and Sara. They've been going steady for almost three years now I believe."

End Confessionals

Axel is at the prehistoric set, using a dinosaur bone prop to smack a stone house down. This does not do anything since the stone is stronger than a bone. Axel keeps banging the house though thanks to his anger. He grunts every time he takes a swing.

Raymundo arrives at the set running. He stops when he finds Axel getting a few cracks on one of the walls of the house that the ruthless teen is attacking.

"Axel!" Raymundo called.

"What!?" Axel exclaimed as he turns around a bit to look at the beach bro.

"First, put down the bone," Raymundo ordered, sounding with authority mix gentleness to not get the wrong idea.

Axel growls and throws the bone away. The bone ends up hitting a brown bird that just happens to be inside the studio.

"Can't you see I'm busy?" Axel shouted.

"Destroying props and becoming violent is not going to bring Tamera back to the game," Raymundo truthfully spoke as he approaches closer to the angry boy. He stops at a safe distance just in case Axel wants to pick out a fight.

"I know!" Axel confessed.

"Then why are you this mad?" Raymundo worried. "You know you and I want to stop Georgia's path. Our other teammates will also assist us on wanting her gone and her team to lose," He referred to the Grip ladies. "Forget about Knick and Christopher's decision."

"How can I forget when Knick is right!?" Axel exclaimed at the top of his lungs. "If I didn't keep denying my feelings for Tamera, she would be my girlfriend now. I could have saved her from falling into Georgia's tricks. She could still be competing with me." He gets on his knees, gazes at the floor, and sobbers.

"I failed miserably," He finished letting out his emotions.

Feeling safe, Raymundo gets close to his teammate. He gets down on one knee to sort of meet Axel's height and hugs him.

"Hey bro, is not all your fault. Tamera was the one who made her choice. You can confess to her later on, but right now she needs you to avenge her. You think she's gonna want a man who gives up?" Raymundo comforted.

"No," Axel answered, stopping himself from whimpering more.

"Then stand up. Prove to everyone and yourself that you can play the game. Win Tamera's heart," Raymundo encouraged.

"Yeah, yeah you're right," Axel agreed.

Raymundo lets go of Axel so the gentleman can stand.

"I'm going to win this last season for Tamera," Axel declared, raising his right fist to the sky.

All the contestants are at the cafeteria eating gruel for breakfast except for Janet, Sua, and Niu. The three mentioned are not in the tent.

The Freezing Grips notice those Blazing Gaffers missing. No one on the team decides to say anything and continue finishing their meals but do find it weird how time has passed and all the contestants are not at the same spot.

"Hey Lucy," Maverick called the detective. "Where are the others?"

"They will be arriving shortly," Lucy answered smiling. She drinks water from her plastic cup.

"I wonder how many of you boys will stare upon the arrival," Georgia told the guys, being loud enough so the Freezing Grip boys can hear as well.

"What arrival are you talking about?" Jett wondered, finishing his gruel. "None of the hosts are worthy to gawk at."

Several snickers from various contestants come thanks to Jett's remark. Sua and Janet arrive at the tent excited.

"Attention everyone," Sua declared, getting everybody's devotion to her and the space geek.

"Presenting an exclusive one-of-a-kind moment," Janet added, containing her giggles.

"It's Niu!" Sua and Janet said in unison, putting their arms in the form of a ninety-degree angle V.

To everyone's surprise except the Gaffer ladies, Niu is wearing an outfit that no one expects she would wear. A lace black busty bodysuit with black skinny jeans and red open-toed cutout high-heeled pumps. To amplify her sex appeal, Niu has on darker eye makeup, red lips thanks to Janet applying lipstick on it, and has her black hair down instead of a ponytail. Lastly, she is sucking on a lollipop. Somehow the light from the sun shines on her back to make her look more stunning.

Niu takes the lollipop out of her mouth to say seductively, "Howdy boys~."

Sara rapidly covers Christopher's eyes with her right hand, so her boyfriend does not see Niu. Simon puts his bowl on top of his head to not look at Niu. Sadly, the bowl he uses has gruel in it. Some of it drips down his head. JJ looks at him and lets out a silent giggle, covering her mouth with her right hand. She finds it cute that Simon will not look because he is into her.

Jett is certainly checking Niu out. Knick and Axel are not gawking, as they feel like it is a different outfit the Blazing Gaffer wanted to try on. So, the two simply continue eating their breakfast. Kristie is blushing at Niu for showing a bit of her chest. Daniela smirks, impress that the girl has done this.

Raymundo whistles for Niu, amazed by having a better glimpse at the lady's figure. Melissa slaps the back of his head for staring too long.

On the Blazing Gaffers side, all the boys minus Buford are looking at Niu. Buford looks at his almost finished gruel and eats slowly. He does not want to be caught staring at his teammate if Meredith shows up. Lucy crosses her arms, not liking the fact Pharoah is staring. Georgia smirks, knowing she was right.

Niu struts her way to her teammates slowly, provoking the boys' interest to still be amazed by her. She stands next to an empty seat space, coincidentally being in front of Buck. Niu turns to her left and leans forward, putting her left hand on the table while the other hand puts back the lollipop in her mouth.

Jett decides he has enough staring and drinks his cup of water. Raymundo on the other hand passes out after looking at Niu's butt.

"Hey there Niu, nice lollipop," Buck greeted his friend with a friendly smile.

Niu takes out the lollipop from her mouth again. "Thanks, you got a nice lollipop down there in your britches partner," She spoke with southern country slang.

Edgar, Maverick, and Pharaoh blush from hearing that comment. Sua and Janet are surprised to hear that comment as they both sit down next to Niu.

Confessional – Lucy – Freezing Grips

"No doubt in my mind Georgia convinced Niu to talk like that. I bet she's laughing up a storm in her head right now."

End Confessional

"How's about a purdy man like you get larking with this rag-baby you're witnessing," Niu continued.

As Raymundo gets back on his seat, he sees Niu put her right leg on the Blazing Gaffers table. Everyone heard the sound of her stepping. Raymundo's mouth foams and he passes out again.

Buck and Niu look at each other in the eyes. The MacGyver sweats, doing his best not to look down.

"Niu," Buck said. "Do you…"

"Yeah, yeah Buck?" Niu smiled, anticipating her crush to figure out she likes him.

"Know what happened to your pink hair tie? Is missing," Buck finished, more sweat dripping down his face.

Everyone inside the tent groans with annoyance, even Chef. Niu takes her leg out of the table, staring dumbfounded.

Chris comes in with his pearly white teeth smiling. "Good morning campers!" He notices the new outfit Niu is wearing. "Yo, Niu, looking good."

Niu throws her lollipop at Chris' hair. The lollipop gets stuck in Chris' hair. Niu sits on the seat of the picnic table and smacks her head on the table with disappointment. All her teammates are concerned except for Georgia who no longer has compassion.

Chris tries to get the sticky lollipop out of his hair. After several pulls, he gives up. "Well, this stinks. Anyhow, teams, come outside the craft and services tent. Today's challenge is about to begin."

"Perhaps you should listen to my advice," Lucy whispered to Niu, who still has her head down on the table. Niu mumbles words that the detective cannot understand.

The teams, Chris, and Meredith are outside the tent. Meredith and Buford wink at each other. The intern is standing next to Chris, who is looking at the remaining twenty-one contestants. The host no longer has the lollipop in his hair.

Casey and Chef arrive in big trucks. The contestants get out of the way, so they do not get run over. Chef and Casey park their truck near the tent.

"Wasn't Chef making food though?" Maverick asked perplexed at how fast Chef went to get a truck and came here with it.

"Is better not to question it," Sua told the promoter.

"What I want to question is why we almost got run over by the hosts who need us for their job," Sara said annoyed.

"Relax, as if those two would crash into you moneymakers," Chris could care less, knowing his co-hosts would not do it. "Anyway, is time to explain today's challenge."

"Which is?" Sara uncaringly asked.

"A combination of drama and documentary films," Chris answered, not letting the sweet bad girl get to his head. He goes to the truck on his left and opens the back to show the contestants the amount of film equipment in there.

Which are c-stands, cameras, tripods, flags, gaffer tape, reflectors, cables, and gaffer lights inside.

"Meredith will now give a historical fact," Chris looked at the contestants.

Meredith opens the back of the other truck filled with more film equipment. Then she faces the two teams to speak. "One of the first-ever documentaries in film comes from Nanook of the North in 1922 by Robert Flaherty. Though, some critics describe the film to be more on the docudrama side or perhaps not even a documentary at all."

"What are we going to a document about?" Daniela wondered.

"About the one and only Chris McLean," Chris announced joyfully as he raised his arms.

The contestants boo at the host.

"Oh, come on don't be jealous," Chris smirked, putting his arms back down.

"You already have one of the biggest egos on the planet," Buford said, not content with filming. "At this point, you're jerking it for kicks."

"And I highly doubt you will want the document to be one-hundred percent truth," Melissa added.

"Plenty of propaganda documentaries out there," Pharaoh decided to talk. "I bet we'll just be filming the good side of Chris."

"If there even is a good side," Lucy snickered. Pharaoh snickers as well.

"Oh, he totally had a good side," Kristie assured. "But that was gone when heading into middle school and…"

"Do not pull a Sierra on me," Chris interrupted the fan. "Ever!"

Kristie smirks and pretends to unzip her mouth.

"Don't you do it," Chris demanded.

"Chris, challenge explanation," Simon reminded, holding in his laughter.

Chris glares at the contestants snickering. Then he puts on his casual demeanor. "Today's challenge is all about documenting my awesome lifestyle. Which by the way is better than all of you."

Most of the competitors narrow their eyes at that comment.

"Each team will divide into parts to help document the film. The gaffers, the grips, director of photography, the boom operator, and the editors," Chris continued explaining.

"But Chris, there are already Gaffers and Grips," Janet informed, thinking the host is talking about the team names.

"I'll explain to you about that later," Sua told the space geek.

"Thanks Sua," Chris expressed gratitude. "The selected editors of each team will be in the crafts and services tent to finish the film on Total Drama's state-of-the-art computers."

Meredith brings computers, keyboards, mouse devices, and cables into the tent. Kristie notices the model of the computers and gasped.

"Chris, are you giving us the Casements computers to work with?" Kristie feels disgusted. "What happened to the Pineapple computers I requested to start using?"

"Oh yeah, we got those," Chris confirmed. "The editors and producers just decided to dump the Casements onto you folks for fun."

"But Pineapples are better," Kristie whined. "You can't expect us to use Casements. Pineapples give a better visual on videos with easier access tools and…"

"No one cares nerd," Jett interjected with annoyance.

"I wouldn't call Kristie a nerd," Chris told the runaway. He realizes something when looking at the teams. "In fact, this cast doesn't have a nerd. That's going to take away certain audiences." He shrugs. "They're losers anyway."

"I thought I am a nerd," Janet believed.

"You're the space geek. There's a difference between those two," Chris told the Blazing Gaffer.

"Do you know the difference between a nerd and a geek?" Maverick genuinely asked the host.

"Of course I do!" Chris said in a matter-of-fact tone. "Nerd is a person who has an obsession for a certain field."

"Chris that's geek, not nerd," Knick stated. "Need a dictionary?"

"Please, Chris would open the page and be like, 'So many words!'," Sara mocked the host.

"Chef, can you read this for me?" Jett pretended to whine.

"Chef, can you tuck me in bed tonight and read me a bedtime story?" Georgia continued the sardonic.

Several contestants chuckle. Chris is steaming with annoyance.

"Each team has two hours to film a documentary of my everyday activities of being a host. Then another two hours for the editors to finish the film. At sunset, all three hosts and teams will watch both films at the campfire near the trailers. I will decide which team has the best film and wins immunity," Chris finished explaining the challenge, keeping his composure.

"How many minutes do we have to gather the materials?" Raymundo asked.

"One, one minute which starts now," Chris happily answered.

The contestants rush into a truck to grab as much film equipment as possible. There are two trucks available, but both teams decide to go to the same one. So, many of them shove each other to get the better gear.

Confessional – Edgar – Blazing Gaffers

"I wonder who'll take charge of this challenge in my team. Almost half of them know about this film stuff. Hopefully, I get paired up with Janet, so I don't have to talk to anyone else."

End Confessional

"Alright Freezing Grips listen up," Daniela got her teammates' attention. "I'm in charge of directing this film. Any objections?"

"Sadly no," Sara spoke.

"Good," Daniela replied triumphantly. She looks at the pile of equipment and then back at her teammates. "Knick and I will partner up on…"

"Sorry for the interruption, but I believe is best for you to direct solo and give us the tasks," Knick stated. "Don't want you to get distracted looking at me."

"Pfft, I don't stare at you," Daniela brushed the statement off. Some of her teammates raise their eyebrows at this. "But you have a good point as always Knick. Anyway, Axel and Christopher will be the grips."

Christopher grabs two c-stands while Axel carries the flags and reflectors.

"Wouldn't it be smarter for Christopher and me to be on grip duty?" Sara asked Daniela, not seeing the purpose of her boyfriend partnering up with another teammate.

"Like I'll have you two together. Two minutes in and it is the make-out city," Daniela gave her reason. "Destination, your boyfriend's tunnel."

Sara and Christopher blush.

"Come on Daniela, we can control ourselves just fine," Christopher assured, almost hitting Axel with a c-stand when turning to look at the stuntwoman.

"Watch it," Axel warned the kung fu warrior.

"Nope made up my mind. You're with Axel and Sara is with Knick on editing," Daniela confirmed as she told Christopher.

"Daniela, I suggest not to put me up for editing," Knick stated.

Daniela raises an eyebrow at the journalist. "Dude, you're awesome and crafty and that stuff, but leave the leader, which is me, to do their thing."

"Most leaders usually have a counselor to provide advice," Knick quantified.

"You are editing with Sara, end of the discussion," Daniela already has her mindset.

Knick puts his hands in his trench coat pockets. He is displeased.

"Raymundo and JJ will be boom operators," Daniela continued assigning tasks.

Raymundo and JJ look at the pile of equipment strangely, not knowing what to pick up.

"You see that pole attach to a mic? Yeah, grab that with the gray fluffy blimp," Daniela pointed at the blimp, which is not the blimps that roam in the sky. Rather, the mic blimp used for filming.

Raymundo grabs the pole with the mic attached to the shock mount. Seeing the mic blimp has a hole that fits the microphone, he puts it in.

"JJ, grab that portable audio recorder and the cables near it to connect it with the mic," Daniela instructed.

JJ happily picks up the recorder and two cables, following instructions, and helping Raymundo set up.

"You know Daniela, maybe JJ and I can be the boom operators," Simon suggested. "I am the second tallest out of everyone on the team."

"Yeah, not happening," Daniela denied. "You're with Jett on gaffer duty."

"Which means?" Jett wondered.

"You two set up the lights," Daniela simply answered. "Luckily these lights don't need a cable which would be a drag."

Simon and Jett grab the film lighting equipment.

"Lighter than expected," Simon admitted.

"What you wanted it heavier to impress the clown?" Jett rhetorically asked the jester.

"No, of course not," Simon lied.

"Lastly, Kristie and Melissa will be on camera duty," Daniela finished.

"Great idea Daniela," Kristie gave a thumbs-up as Melissa grabs two cameras and two tripods. "Since I helped with production on the show, I have good knowledge about camera angles."

"Then how come you don't lead this challenge?" Sara wondered, standing next to Knick.

"Daniela suits it better," Kristie shrugged.

Confessional – Kristie – Freezing Grips

"That, and because becoming leader has a risk of getting voted off if the plan doesn't go your way. Then again Knick is on the team. But also, the fact is, the winners were never truly leaders of their team except for Lilith and Yves. The former who only became it after Maverick's elimination and the latter stopped leading because she sucked at it."

Confessional – Daniela – Freezing Grips

"As someone who's been on multiple films being the stuntwoman, I know for a fact that documentaries do not tend to have artificial light when filming unless it's interviewing about people. But this is Chris we are talking about. So, I guess Pharaoh was right on how this will be propaganda of treating Chris like the best person in the world."

End Confessionals

"Alright team, here is how we are going to do it," Maverick enforced himself to lead.

"Why should you be in charge?" Buford asked the promoter as Janet is shown poking the film equipment with a stick. "Do you have any expertise in filming?"

Maverick tries to answer. "Well, uh…"

"That's what I thought. My dad has a few photographers who take pictures and videos of him," Buford informed then gives a blank expression. "Even had me do it at some point."

"I suggest having me lead this challenge," Sua decided to take on the role. "Being in a K-pop group has given me the chance to work behind the scenes such as making special effects, camera angles, and lights."

"Sounds like you should be working on the field than directing," Buck told the idol.

"If only someone knew where to direct to," Niu mumbled bitterly.

"Pharaoh will partake as the leader in this challenge," Georgia declared, surprising the teammates with her decision.

"You want your ex to take charge?" Lucy asked the actress, confused by the declaration.

"Out of everyone in this team only Pharaoh and I have true experience in films," Georgia informed.

Sua raises her hand. "But I…"

"None of you will give me the chance on taking charge, so Pharaoh with his expertise shall be more suited for this role," Georgia continued, knowing she interrupted Sua.

"Can't argue with that," Edgar admitted. The other members nod. Maverick looks at the emo suspiciously.

"Thanks Georgia," Pharaoh hesitantly told his ex. "You can partner up with Edgar in grip duty."

"Of course, give me the one that barely gets any traction," Georgia said miffed. She proceeds to grab some flags and reflectors. "You carry the c-stands," She told Edgar.

Edgar lifts up a c-stand and can barely hold it.

"Sua and Janet, you two will be on gaffer duty," Pharaoh ordered.

"By gaffer he means?" The space geek asked the idol.

"Working with portable lights," Sua answered sweetly.

"Ah, okay," Janet understood and happily grabs a light, accidentally smacking Sua with it. "Sorry!"

"It's okay, what hurts you makes you stronger," Sua forgave.

Janet notices a butterfly flying by and gazes at it, once again accidentally hitting Sua with the gaffer light. Sua falls unconscious to the ground.

"Buford and Niu will be the editors," Pharaoh continued.

"Pharaoh, may I please partner up with Buck," Niu kindly asked.

Pharaoh makes sure to stare at Niu's face and eyes. "Sorry Niu, but we can't have distractions. That's pretty much why I have you in editing."

"I guess that makes sense," Niu frowned.

"Ah cheer up, Niu, after the challenge we can still hang out," Buck assured the goal digger.

Niu sighs sadly.

"Alright, I already have a feeling about these selections, but why do I need to edit?" Buford genuinely asked the fake royal.

"It's because your dad is a politician, so he believed you know how to make people look good," Georgia mocked.

"That's sadly the truth," Pharaoh admitted. "Sorry dude," He apologized to Bo.

Buford lets out a chuckle. "Nah man, I appreciate you keeping it real."

"Lucy will be on camera," Pharaoh said to the detective.

Lucy grabs a tripod and camera with a large lens. "I'll put my investigating skills to good use."

"Lastly, Buck and Maverick will be the boom operators," Pharaoh. The two boys mention high five each other.

Confessional – Buford – Blazing Gaffers

"Meredith, I love you, babe. It is taking me everything in my willpower to not gawk at Niu's outfit. Just letting you know for how long I'm in the same room with her, I'll be thinking about you."

Confessional – Maverick – Blazing Gaffers

"I'm still confused about the whole situation with Lilith. It looked like Edgar and Georgia had teamed up but then again how am I supposed to know if that's true? Guess I should ask Edgar later on. The dude doesn't look like a liar unless he is. Ugh, why was he eliminated first in Calamity? I don't know the guy at all. Only two things, he likes horror and wears black."

End Confessionals

Chris is at his jacuzzi lounge in a brown speedo, enjoying the water in the tub. He has a tray floating nearby with some cookies and milk on top.

"Is this what you always do when not hosting?" Melissa wondered as she sets up her camera and tripod near one of the edges of the jacuzzi.

"Yep, sit back and relax. Too bad I have to share this with Casey," Chris admitted with an annoyed expression at the end.

"Filming documents 101, do not engage with the person being filmed," Daniela advised Melissa.

"Those are usually for nature documentaries though," Kristie interjected as she puts her camera and tripod in another corner of the jacuzzi.

Pharaoh notices Lucy putting her tripod down and approaches her. "Use your camera to take different angles of Chris. That way it makes the film more engaging than having the same ones going back and forth."

"Got it," Lucy understood.

Sua, Janet, Jett, and Simon are putting gaffer lights all over the room, directing each light to Chris's face. Chris takes out a pair of sunglasses and puts them on to block the light. Edgar, Georgia, Axel, and Christopher are holding the reflectors, but are not doing anything with them since the way the lights have been set up takes away the shadows of Chris.

JJ is having trouble figuring out how the voice recorder works as Raymundo moves the boom mic closer to Chris in case the host speaks. The mic is shown in Lucy's view of shot. The detective decides to move around and make sure the mic is not shown on the camera. Buck and Maverick have no trouble with setting up their boom mic.

Outside the jacuzzi room, the editors are sitting on the ground. They are waiting for either team to come out and finish. Knick watches Sara writing in the blank book he gave to her.

"Feel like you should be more descriptive on the backgrounds," Knick suggested. "Gives the reader a better understanding of what scenery you're trying to create."

"Right," Sara understood and makes arrangements with her pen.

Buford watches the dejected Niu have her arms wrapped around her legs.

"Want to talk?" Buford offered a conversation.

"I don't feel like speaking at the moment," Niu answered as she puts her head on her knees.

Buford hears sobers from Niu. This is getting awkward for him. Even for Sara and Knick.

"She's your teammate dude," Knick stated to Bo, keeping a sharp eye on Sara's writing.

"Yeah, make her feel better," Sara added with a small smirk.

Buford simply rubs Niu's back as his teammate keeps sobering.

Minutes go by and several contestants inside filming are feeling rather bored. Especially those who are holding the reflectors and not doing anything. Why are they even here in the first place? Chris is just eating cookies and milk in his pool. How is that worth capturing on film?

Georgia, noticing the expressions decides to spice things up. She raises her reflector and heads to the gaffer light Janet put. She puts the reflector in front to direct the light toward Raymundo's eyes.

"Ah, I'm not ready to leave Earth yet!" Raymundo cried out, blinded by the light. Walking backward, Raymundo accidentally trips onto JJ, and the two fall into the jacuzzi with a splash.

"JJ?" Simon noticed her in the jacuzzi. He goes to rescue the clown, unintentionally bumping his light in a way that aims at Jett's eyes.

As Simon swims into the jacuzzi for a rescue, Jett gets blinded by the light. Moving a tad bit to his right, the runaway trips on his gaffer light which collides with Simon's, breaking both.

"Alright this is too much," Chris mentioned and gets up from his jacuzzi and leaves the room. All members of the Blazing Gaffers follow him.

Simon helps JJ get out of the jacuzzi and gently puts the mute girl on the floor. JJ coughs out water. Raymundo swims out of the jacuzzi, just as wet as the other two.

"Sorry, my bad," Raymundo apologized. "I was going to bring JJ up, but Simon beat me to it."

Daniela narrows her eyes. "You four," She referred to her teammates that got into the pool and Jett. "Dismissed from helping in the challenge. I'm not having distractions on my set."

"Fine by me," Jett liked the idea as he gets up from the floor. He chuckles and runs out of the room. Raymundo follows him with a frown.

"Christopher and Melissa, you two are now on boom operator duty," Daniela ordered.

The two called looked at each then their leader.

"Shouldn't one of us handle the lights?" Melissa genuinely asked.

Daniela gives an emotionless blank stare as she points at the destroyed lights.

"Oh, I see," Melissa realized.

Confessional – Daniela – Freezing Grips

She has her arms crossed with a forced smile. "Is fine, we don't need lights. Who needs light when filming am I right?"

End Confessionals

Inside one of the soundstages, Chris is barking orders at interns moving around props for a set. He is back wearing his everyday clothing. The Blazing Gaffers hear the host as if he is barking like a dog while setting up their equipment. Thanks to Georgia, the team was able to arrive faster since Daniela had to explain to Melissa and Christopher how their new position works. Everything is going well for the Gaffers until Janet gets distracted by gazing at some large size balls in the appearance of different planets that are being held by various interns. Her left elbow smacks her light. Which falls and aims directly at Sua's face. It takes a few seconds for Sua to realize the harsh light is hurting her eyes.

"Ouch," Sua giggled before getting away from the light. Only to trip on her own gaffer light and break it. The sound makes everyone pay attention to her.

Pharaoh walks to Sua to talk with her privately.

"Hey, Sua, don't take this personally but filming requires no distractions," Pharaoh informed. "Go and take Janet outside of the soundstage please."

Sua frowns but immediately smiles after. "I understand." The idol approaches Janet and takes the space geek by her left arm.

"Where are we going?" Janet asked her teammate perplexed.

"Pharaoh doesn't want us on set," Sua answered. She smirks. "Which means we keep the Freezing Grips at bay."

"Bay? But there isn't an ocean here," Janet pointed out.

Sua chuckles. "Not like that." The two arrive at the door entrance of the soundstage. The skinny idol sees a long metal chain and a sturdy metal open lock on the ground. She picks both objects up. "Hold this please."

Janet takes the lock and looks inside the keyhole. "Is it true that one can unlock this with a bobby pin?"

Sua wraps the two handles of the door with the long metal chain. Then she takes the lock from Janet to attach it to the chains, locking it in the process.

"There, now the Freezing Grips won't be able to get inside," Sua contently said with satisfaction.

"Isn't it wrong to leave them outside during the challenge?" Janet wondered, feeling guilty for unintentionally helping Sua sabotage.

"No, don't think of it as sabotage. Think of it as an advantage for our team. They stay out there, and it is more peaceful for our teammates to film," Sua spun it around.

"I guess that makes sense," Janet hesitantly agreed. "Do we just sit here and wait for our team to be done?"

Sua nods.

Confessional – Sua – Blazing Gaffers

"It's part of the game. Just because I'm trying not to be psycho again doesn't mean I can't give my team an easier win."

End Confessional

The Freezing Grips with the exception of Jett, Raymundo, JJ, and Simon arrive at the outside entrance of the soundstage. When Daniela pulls on the handles, she cannot open the doors.

"What the?" Daniela exclaimed surprised. She continues pulling.

"Have you tried pushing?" Sara smiled and joked.

Daniela pushes and still cannot get the door open.

"I believe someone locked the doors from the inside," Knick stated, mildly annoyed but knowing is a good technique, so he is more impressed than aggravated like his teammates.

"I bet Georgia was the one who locked it," Axel alleged.

"Anyone from the Blazing Gaffers could have locked it," Christopher pointed out.

"Yes, but the chances are in her favor," Axel responded. "Also, I don't know why our leader decided to have four members leave the challenge. Isn't there a phrase that goes by the more the merrier?"

"Axel let's not start this. We're in a challenge," Melissa told the ruthless gentleman. "We need to figure out a way to get inside."

"By the roof?" Knick told the athletic nerd doubtfully.

Christopher takes out a dagger with his available hand since the other is holding the boom pole.

"No, no babe, we do not need to resort to crashing a roof again," Sara assured her boyfriend.

"Again?" Knick questioned.

"We should just wait until Chris makes his way to the security room. That's where he tends to go to in the afternoon when not hosting," Kristie suggested.

Her teammates look at her.

"And you know this how?" Daniela asked.

"I helped the show during Carnival Calamity," Kristie exclaimed. "Seriously, are you that ignorant to what your teammates talk about?"

"Girls, please," Melissa once again becomes the peacemaker. "Let's just head to the security footage and wait for Chris to get there."

Confessional – Christopher – Freezing Grips

"We only have one loss and yet the team is becoming more dysfunctional than I thought. I believed the only conflict was going to be with Knick and Jett, but if we don't solve our issues, we might end up losing constantly."

End Confessional

After some time has passed, the Blazing Gaffers are walking alongside Chris to the security room. Once Chris unlocks the door, Kristie and Christopher's hands are shown dragging him inside. Before the Gaffers can enter, Daniela halts them by putting her right hand out.

"Sorry, this place is only for the FGWs," Daniela faked apology.

"FGWs? What does that mean?" Pharaoh wondered.

"It means Freezing Grip Winners duh!" Daniela mocked then closed the security room door.

The Freezing Grips look at Pharaoh.

"What do we do now?" Edgar asked his leader.

"We'll just have Buford and Niu start editing the video now," Pharaoh answered. "Sure, we don't have as much footage as we hoped, but they have more time to make the video better."

Lucy takes out the SD card from the camera she used and gives it to Buford.

"You know what you're doing?" Lucy quietly asked.

Buford nods with a smile. "I can manage."

Buck handles Niu the voice recorder. Niu holds onto Buck's hands, not letting them go.

"Uh, you can let go now," Buck smiled, trying to pull his hands away.

"Do I look pretty to you?" Niu calmly asked, not realizing she is clenching her hands onto Buck's hands.

"Niu, you are hurting me," Buck mumbled in pain.

"Do you find me attractive?" Niu asked another question, pressing harder.

"Niu please let go," Buck begged.

"Maybe a proper demonstration will show you," Niu figured as she brings Buck's hands close to her chest.

"Okay no!" Buford quickly shouted and grabs Niu by the back of her black bodysuit. "Let's go editing Niu!"

The sudden grab lets Buck take his hands off Niu's. The goal digger still has the sound recorder.

"I'll win the challenge for you Buck!" Niu said confidently as she gets dragged away by Buford.

Buck looks weirded out and confused. He looks at his teammates and lets out a small chuckle. "Wow, she has nuts in her brain. For a moment I thought she actually likes me."

Buck's teammates sigh in disappointment.

Confessional – Pharaoh – Blazing Gaffers

"I just realize that Buford and Niu will have to find sound and music soundtracks for the video. In that case, I should have given the editing to Sua, Georgia, or even myself. Hope I didn't mess this up for the team. I included narration by using my voice to talk about how awesome Chris is. He's really not, but I have to win this challenge. I just hope if we lose, I don't get the full blame."

End Confessional

The editors of each team are inside the crafts and services tent. Buford and Niu are practically almost done with their editing while Knick and Sara have just commenced.

"Buford, I need advice," Niu kindly requested, the two Blazing Gaffers sharply looking at the computer for some editing touches. "Maybe you haven't noticed, but I have a crush on Buck."

Buford is about to give out a sarcastic comment but bites his tongue. "Have you been trying to impress him?" He clicks on some buttons with the computer mouse.

"Yes, but nothing seems to be working. It feels like everything I have done has been in vain for him to notice me," Niu confessed.

"Have you told Buck you like him?" Bo asked as he deletes a small clip from the editing program.

"No, and that's the same advice Lucy gave me," Niu answered. "And the one my brother Jun gave me as well."

"I never had what you are going through right now Niu. However, I think it's time to finally tell him how you feel. If it works out, it works out," Bo advised. "If not, it's going to hurt, but you'll have to move on."

"I guess you're right," Niu realized, conflicted on whether to do it after the challenge or not. Buck did say he wanted to hang out with her.

With Knick and Sara, the sweet bad girl notices the journalist having trouble figuring out the program on the computer.

"Knick, let me handle the editing. You just tell me what looks good or not and needs adjustments," Sara stated as she puts her hands on the keyboard and computer mouse.

"My bad, haven't been accustomed to certain technology yet," Knick apologized as he observes the footage.

"Accustom? What, did that island you stayed with your girlfriend not have modern technology?" Sara wondered then smirks. "Some awesome vacation that must have been," She spoke sarcastically.

Noticing Knick not liking the joke nor commentating on that, Sara narrows her eyes. She pulls the plug on the computer, making it shut down instantly.

Knick looks at her mildly irritated. "You do realize that you pulled…"

"Yes, I know I pulled the plug, but editing isn't important right now," Sara interrupted.

"It's part of the challenge," Knick replied bluntly. "In fact, if we don't do well is possible our teammates will target us."

"I'm not editing for another second until you tell me what's going on," Sara stated. "Whenever Yves is mentioned, you get gloomy and abrasive. Christopher told me what happened this morning in the boy's trailer. Now spill."

"I don't need to tell you anything," Knick snapped. This gets the attention of the two Freezing Grips on their tableside. "My issues with her are no one's business."

Sara takes a deep breath and breathes out. Is time to play good cop. She puts on a gentler expression. "Knick, remember the time in Radiant Redemption when I was enraged with Christopher being eliminated. You comforted me in a moment I needed someone to talk to and let out my feelings. How much it hurt for me to not even say goodbye. I'm your friend Knick. Please, tell me what's wrong just like what you did with me. I may not understand it, but at least these feelings are not trapped in a bottle."

Niu and Buford are eating popcorn from brown bags, watching the conversation.

Knick sighs. "I wasn't exactly on the island as a vacation with Yves per se. Yes, we were supposed to go on a date there, but a certain event caused it to not be that way. The employees from the show found me. But Yves was never found."

Eyes go wide open for the three teens hearing the conversation.

"Yves and I got separated and the rest are history. My goal is to win the cash prize to find her myself somehow," Knick finished.

"So, you don't know if she's alive or…" Sara stops. "I'm sorry Knick."

"Don't be, is my fault I let her manipulate me into going there when I knew it was a bad idea," Knick stated. He grabs the cable from Sara to plug it back into the nearest outlet. "Let's just wrap this up."

Silence falls inside the crafts and services tent. Until Daniela shows up.

"Hey, I need you both to come with me. Just realized I needed to make narration for the video. Chris is still at the security footage, so I need you two with Melissa and Christopher," Daniela ordered. "Let's go."

Knick and Sara get out of their seats and leave with their leader. Outside, Georgia peeks up from a bush, watching the Freezing Grips go away.

"Well, guess sitting in a bush for almost a complete hour proved to be quite effective," Georgia told herself. "Although I wish I prepared myself more to stay longer," She says as she takes a small plastic bucket out of the bush. She sniffs it and almost gags. "I'll bring this to the bathroom after I put my plan into action."

Georgia makes her way inside the tent while humming. She proceeds to unplug the cable from the computer Knick and Sara were using. Then she grabs the computer, mouse, and keyboard. She is about to leave the tent until Niu speaks.

"Where are you going with that?" Niu asked.

Georgia turns to her right to see her fellow teammates. "Throw in the trash somewhere. Will make it easier for us to win."

"That's not fair though," Niu told the actress. "That's sabotaging which is wrong. Besides, Bo and I already have the editing done. Pretty sure our team wins without you being diabolical."

"Excellent point Niu, but there's nothing more entertaining than watching your enemies tear each other apart," Georgia gave her own point of perception.

"Bo, back me up here," Niu said to her teammate, glaring at Georgia.

"What if Knick and Sara are better editors than us? We don't know how good they are when it comes to this. Might as well play it safe," Buford sided with the actress.

Niu cannot believe Bo decided to vouch for Georgia. Oh, wait, yeah, she can. "Go ahead Georgia, just make sure not to get caught."

Smirking proudly, Georgia exists out of the tent. She notices Axel standing in front of her with his arms crossed, being stoic.

"Good evening, Axel, something on your mind?" Georgia grinned.

"Put down the computer now," Axel answered seriously.

Georgia makes a tsk-tsk sound. "Poor choice of words." She drops the computer, keyboard, and mouse. The computer's screen gets cracked and some parts break.

"No, Daniela told me to supervise it," Axel exclaimed in horror.

"Well, I must say you did a spectacular job on performing your role," Georgia cynically spoke. "Tamera would be impressed. If she was here of course."

Axel growls and glares at the Blazing Gaffer.

"Hey, did you two kiss once she got eliminated?" Georgia continued to pester. "Probably not, but don't worry. I'll make sure you join her eventually."

"You are the most despicable person I have ever met!" Axel exclaimed, trying to control his temper.

"Darling, flattery won't save you from your demise," Georgia laughed. "Go ahead," She points at her right cheek. "Give it to me as hard as you can."

Axel clenches his hands into fists and walks toward Georgia. The actress is waiting for the punch and closes her eyes. She opens them when she hears the computer that she dropped make a sound.

Axel is holding the computer, keyboard, and mouse in his arms and hands. Georgia watches him head inside the tent, putting back the objects on the table and plugging the cable. Pressing the on button, the computer turns on. Sure, the cracks and broken pieces of the screen make it harder to see what it is showing, but at least it still works.

Confessional – Axel – Freezing Grips

"I know what Georgia was trying to do. Get me mad about Tamera's elimination. In which I'll hit her, and she goes to my teammates to tell them how I beat her up. Good tactic, but I'm not that easy to fool anymore. My temper and ruthlessness caused my game against Caleb. I am not doing the same this second run."

Confessional – Georgia – Freezing Grips

"Well, that's one thing Axel is better at than Tamera. Though, I made sure to have a backup plan." She takes off her right glove and smacks her right cheek. "Really hope this doesn't permanently damage my incredible looks."

End Confessionals

The sun is about to set. With the editing done, everyone is at the trailer campsite sitting on logs. To the long log on the left is where the Blazing Gaffers are sitting. The Freezing Grips are sitting on the long log to the right. Chris, Chef, and Casey are sitting on a log in the middle with a projector in front of the female host, connected with a cable to the laptop on the girl's lap. The projector is on a tripod.

There is a large projector screen that is being held by four nails on two vertical standing logs. Casey turns on the projector and begins searching for the videos. Chris gets up in front of the projector screen to look at the contestants.

"Teams, it's been a long day," Chris acknowledged. "Now comes the final part of today's challenge. Watching and criticizing how terrible your videos are."

"Get on with it already," Sara said for fun.

Simon throws a tomato at Chris' face. The majority of the contestants laugh, seeing the tomato juice splatter on the host's face.

"Congrats Freezing Grips, all of you can thank Simon for having your film be shown first," Chris said. He goes back to his sitting spot.

Axel notices Georgia's face covered with bruises. He looks at his teammates, noticing several of them are giving disapproving looks.

"What did she do?" Axel wondered to himself with a whisper.

Everyone watches the video of the Freezing Grips.

"Chris McLean, a man of dishonor, greed, and hope for the patriotic Canadian eagle," Daniela's voice is heard in the video. The video shows Chris working inside the security room.

Many contestants, including Casey and Chef, giggle at the narration.

Confessional – Daniela – Freezing Grips

"What? Couldn't help myself. As if I'm going to waste an opportunity making fun of Chris."

"As you can tell by his butt chin exterior, McLean is a disgusting donkey," Daniela's narration continued as clips of him are shown in his jacuzzi.

The competitors, Casey, and Chef are hollering with laughter while Chris is blushing with embarrassment.

"My chin doesn't look like a butt," Chris murmured.

"It is surprising how fit he is considering he eats cookies and milk. Guess we have the new Santa Claus for this Christmas year," More Daniela narration came.

A small edit is shown with Chris' face on a terrible drawn Santa Claus.

"Parents, make sure not to send your kids to this Santa. He might try to show his North Pole," The narration continued.

Chris is fuming from the laughter of everybody and unplugs the computer connected to the projector. Once the laughs settle, all can see Chris' irritated and embarrassed face.

Confessional – Knick and Sara – Freezing Grips

The two friends are standing.

"Daniela really shouldn't have done that. We're bound to lose now," Knick stated.

"Eh, Chris' reaction is worth it," Sara smiled.

"Is it really worth it?" Knick joked.

Sara lightly punches his left shoulder. "Shut up. We put the narration in remember?"

"True."

End Confessional

"I have a clear idea which team is losing tonight!" Chris eyed the Freezing Grips. "But, to make things fair. We'll be watching the Blazing Gaffers video."

Casey connects the cable again from the computer to the projector and starts the video.

Pharaoh's recorded voice is narrating what is shown on the projector screen, Chris telling orders to various interns to work. "Chris McLean is a highly intelligent respectable human."

More than half of the Freezing Grips boo at hearing this. Lucy, Bo, Sua, and Georgia join in on the fun.

"Shush!" Chris demanded.

As the video continues, various transitions show the twenty-one contestants falling asleep one by one. The video finishes and Chris gets stands up happily.

"Thank goodness I decided to keep watching the other film. Feel like I'm a better man than I was five minutes ago," McLean told himself. He looks around the site and notices everyone sleeping. Including Chef and Casey. He takes out his airhorn to wake everyone up, which is successful.

Everyone stands, waiting for Chris to announce the winner.

"My team won right?" Raymundo hoped.

"Of course," Chris answered.

Raymundo gets happy.

"Not."

Raymundo frowns.

"Obviously the Blazing Gaffers won. As if I'll let the people that made propaganda about me win," Chris told the beach bro. The Blazing Gaffers cheer for obtaining their second victory.

"How is it propaganda when it's true?" Jett snickered.

"Yeah, wouldn't our documentary be more realistic that way?" Simon added, snuffling as well.

"All of you out of my sight, now," Chris ordered, fed up with the Freezing Grips.

Confessional – Maverick – Blazing Gaffers

He is excited. "Yeah! Two in a row! That's what I'm talking about! Great to see the team working together in this challenge. Going to make sure my team goes on a winning streak."

End Confessional

Buck is walking and whistling while minding his own business around the film lot. All of a sudden, he trips on something. He puts his hands on the ground first. He gets ups quickly and checks on what caused him to fall. His lucky wrench.

"Well, I'll be, what are you doing out of my pocket?" Buck wondered. He notices a bunch of other tools like screwdrivers, hammers, and tweezers on the ground forming some sort of path. Buck picks them up while humming a country song until making his way to a bird fountain in the shape of a heart.

There is JJ, having her right elbow leaning on the fountain.

"Oh, hey JJ," Buck greeted. "What are you doing here? By the way, can you stuff these tools in your wig? Might get too exhausted carrying them back to the trailer."

JJ nods and puts all tools inside her wig. Except for Buck's favorite wrench. JJ then pretends to be texting on a phone and points at the MacGyver.

"Do I have a phone?" Buck wondered if he got it right.

JJ pretends to text again, pointing at herself, then at Buck.

"You want to text me? Oh, you want to give me a message," Buck figured out.

JJ uses her clown horn to let the Blazing Gaffer know he is correct. She puts her right hand in her wig and takes out Niu from it. Buck blinks twice.

"That's a weird message," Buck admitted.

"Thanks JJ, I'll take it from here," Niu told the silent clown.

JJ takes out a clown car from her wig, gets in, and drives away. Niu and Buck look at each other. The sunset is finally here, giving a warm light to the two.

"Why were you in JJ's wig?" Buck kindly asked curiously.

"I needed transportation, so I don't sweat in this outfit," Niu answered. "But that's not important right now. I've been thinking about it during the challenge and from what Lucy, Bo, and Jun told me."

"Who's Jun?" Buck asked.

"My brother," Niu stated bluntly.

"You have a brother?" Buck is surprised.

Niu frowns. "Buck, have you ever considered getting into another relationship?"

Buck's gears in his brain stop working a bit until he comprehends what the goal digger told him. "I… don't know." He slouches a bit. "After being used by Violette and only being with Casey for a date I feel like my luck with women is bad. No offense to Casey, she's amazing. It just didn't work out."

"I see," Niu understood, putting her head down.

Buck gets closer and grabs Niu's hands. Niu looks up at the MacGyver's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Buck asked. "I don't want to see a friend sad like this."

This is her chance. Just tell him already. A few seconds pass by.

"I like you Buck," Niu confessed. "Since the days we competed on the same team in Back to the Islands I started developing feelings for you."

Buck's eyes wide up. He feels himself shaking ever so slightly.

"And I didn't realize until I found out you got hurt during Radiant Redemption. I sued the show to give you the chance you deserve to win cash," Niu continued.

"You did that for me because you find me more than a friend," Buck realized. "It's all making sense now."

"And when we got to be in the same season again, I just wanted to show how much I like you. Appreciate you," Niu smiled happily, her eyes beaming with delight. "But now I know you're not ready to start another relationship. We can still be friends Buck."

Niu takes her hands away from Buck's hands. She turns around and begins to leave until Buck grabs her right arm. The dirty blonde gently turns his teammate around to look at his face.

"All this time you've been flirting with me. And wearing this stunning outfit was to impress me?" Buck wanted confirmation.

"You're seriously figuring this out now?" Niu laughed.

"Well, sometimes I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed," Buck joked.

Niu giggles and her cheeks turn red. "One of the qualities I can let by and appreciate."

Buck smiles widely. He brings Niu close to him so she can lay her head on his stomach. He puts his hands on her back.

"B-Buck?" Niu stuttered.

"There is a saying about third times the charm," Buck said. "Never had a purdy lady do so much for me."

"P-purdy?" Niu stuttered again. She looks up into Buck's blue eyes. "Y-you want to give it a try?"

"I don't see why not," Buck answered contently.

Niu hugs Buck tightly and cries. This is probably the best day for her.

"Wow, that's a lot of water coming from your eyes. Could probably be enough for some cattle," Buck commented.

A wide shot is shown to picture the new couple under the bright and colorful sunset, using their shadows to look like silhouettes.

Inside the crafts and services tent, the Freezing Grips are discussing who to vote out at their table.

"For the last time, I did not beat up Georgia for almost breaking the computer," Axel stated, getting fed up with the accusations.

"Honestly I think she deserves it," Sara muttered.

Christopher gasps at that response.

"What, it's true," Sara told her boyfriend.

"Why can't you people understand I didn't do it. Look at my hands. They are clean," Axel showed his hands.

"You could have washed them," Raymundo countered. "She did come to us and told us what you did.

"Seriously?" Axel stated annoyed.

"Alright, let's give you the benefit of the doubt. Even if you didn't hurt Georgia, I'm considering voting for you because you can get too over the top," Melissa expressed.

"And you're not like that either?" Jett questioned. "Sounds like someone who wants to throw another under the bus."

"What we need to do is get rid of Knick," Axel told his teammates. "None of you are getting the picture that he's gone to the finale twice! We are literally letting him make it farther than he should."

"I'm not the guy who targets someone based on pure rage," Knick countered.

Axel scoffs. "If it was…"

"Do not bring that up again," Knick exclaimed, slamming his left hand on the table.

"You would make a good red lantern," Melissa told Axel.

"Sorry dude," Christopher apologized to Axel. "But when it comes down to it you seem to have the majority vote."

"Oh, so you're siding with him," Axel referred to Knick. "Should have known the Crowstillo members would work together."

"Is anybody going to realize that Daniela is the reason we have lost two challenges in a row?" Kristie added.

"Nah, they don't need to know that," Daniela responded self-righteously. "We got two perfect teammates up for elimination."

"Quit the smug face pendeja," Kristie decided to insult in Spanish. "I rather keep an actual competitor and a rage maker over someone who cost us these previous challenges. We would have won the last challenge si no fuera por tu boca idiota! And then you had to ruin it again today!"

"Hey, I gave everyone a good laugh," Daniela responded, glaring at the Total Drama fan. "Y no vuelvas a decirme pendeja fanático incompetente!"

"Do you understand what they are saying?" Simon whispered to JJ. JJ shrugs not knowing.

"Guys, calm down, this is getting way too intense," Melissa told her teammates.

"Intense like Axel's love for Tamera which he blew up?" Knick stated.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm not the one who keeps changing girls every two months," Axel exclaimed with fury. "I would not be surprised if you're having an affair."

Knick jumps to tackle Axel to the ground and the two roll around fighting each other. Kristie takes out her beanie and puts it on Daniela's head to cover the stuntwoman's eyes. Daniela grabs Kristie by the arms and throws her teammate at the tent's fabric, ripping a hole in it.

Daniela takes off the beanie and charges at Kristie and the two Grips fight each other like Axel and Knick. The other Freezing Grips watch in horror. Christopher and Sara pull Knick and Axel away from each other.

"Get off me!" Axel shouted at the kung fu warrior. He uses his elbow to smack Christopher's chin to let him go.

"Oh no you didn't! I did not just see you hit my man," Sara said to the ruthless gentleman and tackled Axel to the ground, throwing several punches not shown on screen.

On the other side, Melissa and Jett try to separate Daniela and Kristie but a similar result happens. Daniela accidentally punches Jett in the left cheek which causes the runaway to push Daniela to the ground. Jett then dirties Daniela's shoes with his out of pettiness.

"Those shoes were signed by Knick cabrón!" Daniela cursed in Spanish and gives a roundhouse kick to Jett's face.

Melissa wants to stop the brawl, but Kristie uses her yellow scarf to cover the athletic nerd's eyes. Raymundo does a football tackle on Kristie, but this also sends Melissa to the ground with the two.

Having enough punches, Axel gives a swift left hook to Sara's lips. This causes the sweet bad girl to back away and spit out saliva onto the ground. Christopher gasps and narrows his eyes at Axel.

"Ah crud," Axel realized what is about to happen.

JJ and Simon get out from the table once they see Christopher throw Axel there. The strength of the throw breaks the table in half as Axel was tossed. Axel lands on the ground groaning in pain. Yet, he still gets up and gets in a boxing position.

"I can do this all day," Axel spoke while looking tired from just that one throw.

As the brawl of the Freezing Grips continues, Simon notices JJ's face of suffering. She is scared, trembling in fact. Simon takes a large gong out of the clown's wig and hits it hard with his right hand after JJ covers her ears.

The sound of the gong makes everyone stop fighting and look at Simon.

"Look what all of you are doing to her," Simon outraged, making everyone see how terrified JJ is.

Yes, the clown has taken on the Ringleader before, but these are her teammates. They are supposed to work together.

"Do any of you expect violence to solve your issues with each other?" Simon genuinely asked.

The Freezing Grips look at each other with shame and guilty expressions except for Jett, who turns around to not face anyone.

"We all are voting for someone tonight. We choose who leaves and stays. Whoever stays we deal with the situation in a civilized manner. Talking to one another," Simon declared. "Understand?"

No one says anything but nobody starts another fight so each individual comprehends.

"Good," Simon smiled. "Now separate each other until we head to the elimination ceremony tonight."

As everybody goes their way, JJ hugs Simon tightly as thanks for stopping the madness. The jester hugs her back warmly.

Confessional – Axel – Freezing Grips

His face has a few bruises, and he is breathing heavily. "Dang, really glad Simon called off the fight. Christopher would have knocked me out sooner rather than later. Doesn't matter. I am getting rid of Knick tonight. With him gone, the team will make sure to have their eyes focus on getting rid of Georgia."

Confessional – Kristie – Freezing Grips

Like Axel, she too has bruises on her face but only two. Her glasses are cracked. "Daniela needs to leave now! She's causing nothing but trouble to the team. Always mocking everyone except for Knick because she's total dog loyal to him. If Chris didn't have that stupid rule, I would rig the votes tonight just to get rid of that *****!"

Confessional – Christopher – Freezing Grips

He is rubbing his chin from the hit Axel gave him. "Strong hit but lacks discipline. Guess is time to tell Knick and Sara about Axel's target."

End Confessionals

The Crowstillo alliance from the Freezing Grips have met up inside the prehistoric set, each sitting on a large stone.

"This is important right?" Knick wanted to make sure.

"Yep," Christopher nodded. "We need to get rid of Axel tonight. He's been targeting you since before the second challenge."

"Wait, since the second challenge?" Sara questioned. "You have kept this from us since then?"

Christopher notices the disapproving look his girlfriend is giving him. "Well, um, yeah, didn't think it would be important until now."

"Not important?" Knick is baffled by that statement.

"Christopher, if you told us this beforehand, we would have gotten rid of Axel instead of Tamera," Sara pointed out, clearly distraught that her boyfriend kept that secret. "Heck, if Tamera didn't self-sabotage Knick might have gone home."

"I wouldn't even consider fighting Axel if you just told me sooner. I could have kept my cool to prevent the brawl. I could have kept my mouth shut this morning. Now I have a high chance of leaving because I started the fight," Knick added, worried about his stay.

"Do you two expect things would change if I told sooner," Christopher said quietly with a smile.

"Yes," Knick and Sara answered at the same time.

Knick gets up from the stone he is sitting on and walks away.

"Where are you going?" Christopher wondered.

"To find Daniela," Knick responded, continuing to walk away. "If I leave the Crowstillo Alliance becomes shambles."

Out of sight, the couple looks at each other.

Christopher chuckles awkwardly. "Come on Sara, is it that bad I kept this from you two? We've been…"

"Babe, stop," Sara interrupted. "I'm not saying is completely your fault since Knick did put the target on him, but this could have been prevented if you immediately said this from the beginning when you found out." She sighs, gets up, and frowns. "I wonder what other secrets you have been keeping from me."

Christopher watches his girlfriend leave. He looks down at the ground. He messed up.

It is night. The Freezing Grips have arrived at the bleacher of the Glided Chris Award Ceremony. The males are sitting in the first two rows while the females sit in the two upper decks. Each contestant is holding their voting device. Chris is back wearing his formal attire. There is a glass table next to him. On the glass table is ten small Glided Chris awards.

"Whoa, what happened to all of you?" Chris asked, looking at some of the Grips who have bruises on their face.

"We had a fight," Melissa answered dejected. "Well, most of us."

Chris chuckles. "Awesome," His sadistic smile fades when he sees the losing team glaring at him. "At ease people. Use the device to vote off the team member of your choice."

Confessional – Knick – Freezing Grips

"Betting on Daniela to pull through. If she was able to convince some of our teammates to successfully get rid of Axel that will be amazing. Though, I'm scared of the idea of what should I repay her with on that possible outcome."

Confessional – Axel – Freezing Grips

"After the brawl and the team cooling off, I made said sure to talk with every single teammate besides the Crowstillo cast ones to vote off Knick. Do I believe all of them will vote him off? No, but I made a compelling argument to some and promised JJ I'll control my anger throughout the remainder of the game. That way I can have Simon and Melissa's vote as well."

End Confessionals

All the Freezing Grips minus Daniela, Axel, and Knick have a glided Chris award in their hand.

"And then there were three," Chris informed. "Daniela, you're at the bottom for causing your team to lose again by playing that ridiculous narration that does not coordinate with me at all."

Daniela remains quiet.

"Knick, once again you're at the bottom for being a huge strategic Total Drama threat. Also not being the friendliest teammate there is," Chris continued speaking.

"Can't be friends with everyone," Knick stated.

Chris looks at Axel. "Axel, you're in the bottom three again but for a different reason this time. Your ruthlessness and rage have made you quite the member no one wants to deal with it. Especially targeting certain people again like in Carnival Calamity. Will you seal your faith again here?"

Axel does not say a word.

"The next glided Chris award goes to…"

"Daniela."

The stuntwoman catches her glided Chris award that the host threw to her. Kristie is annoyed the girl she dislikes stayed.

Axel and Knick glance at each other. Then look at the last glided Chris award on the glass table. Chris picks the item up.

"The last award goes to…"

Knick and Axel continue to stare at the award. Both are extremely nervous, anticipating who stays and goes.

"Knick, congrats on another clutch stay dude," Chris told the investigator.

Knick catches his award and breathes a sigh of relief. Axel runs out of the bleacher and turns around to look at his teammates.

"Who? Who backstabbed and voted me off?" Axel wanted to know. When no one on his team answers he gets upset. "Come clean, who did it?"

Chris walks up to the eliminated contestant. "Dude, time to take the lame-o-sine."

Axel growls in frustration. "You know what? Screw all of you. I hope none of you make it to the merge." He heads down the walk of shame with bitter defeat.

"Man, I am loving this season," Chris happily said. "Every single elimination has been dramatic so far. All of you get some rest."

Confessional – Daniela – Freezing Grips

"Yeah, I was able to have Knick stay. Had to make deals in order to keep him in. But uh, nah, I don't need to tell him so soon. He doesn't need to know. Only the fact he owes me big time. Sure, I idolize him, but I still need to play the game."

Confessional – Kristie – Freezing Grips

"When playing Total Drama, one needs to strike deals to gain an advantage. Axel wasn't a deal maker. Though, if he actually played it smart on not blowing a fuse Daniela would be going home. Because if he could convince the others to vote her off, he would be in the game right now."

End Confessionals

Chris watches the lame-o-sine take Axel away. He looks at a camera to end the episode. "The drama temperature is rising over here on the film lot. How will the new couple Buck and Niu work out? Will the Blazing Gaffers continue winning? Can the Freezing Grips resolve their differences? What kind of deal Daniela made with some of her teammates? Find out next time on Total… Drama… Lights, Camera, Finale!"

Author's Note: A lot of mistakes several Freezing Grips did. Christopher keeping a secret, Knick causes a fight, Daniela blows the challenge again, and then there is Axel. Similar to Tamera, Axel was doing his best not to make the same mistake he did during Carnival Calamity. Sadly, the loss of Tamera and the obsession with wanting Knick plus Georgia out caused his demise. Perhaps if he went more strategical on his approaches he would have stayed. Like Kristie pointed out, Daniela would definitely have been eliminated if Axel was not stubborn about targeting solely one person. And with how that goes throughout the Crowstilloverse, it does not end well in most cases.

Thanks to LiittleRedline for coming up with the drama mix documental challenge. The title of the chapter is also a reference to the movie Nanook of the North. It also fits because Canada is up north on the Earth and the cast are all still in their teens. Well, nineteen is technically an adult in some countries, but teen is still at the end of the word.

Special shoutout to Skyn1nja123 for providing the outfit Niu put on this episode. Niu and Buck are now officially together, but will it last?

Thanks for reading! If you want to review or PM me your thoughts go ahead. Take care!
