LaCuevademigustos: Yes, Mal showing fear was funny to write.
Ellismskd24: Yeah that's spot on actually.
acosta perez jose ramiro: Yep after what Duncan did, hardly anyone trusts him.
Benji The Monocat(chapter 1): They seemed to be tied.
Benji The Monocat(chapter 2): Glad I was able to do so.
Benji The Monocat(chapter 4): He's gone now so it's not too bad.
Benji The Monocat(chapter 5): Hahahaha!
Benji The Monocat(chapter 10): Forming ships I see, that's cool.
Benji The Monocat(chapter 12): It appears I'm doing my job too well then.

Girls: Amy, Heather, Sky
"Last time on Total Drama Action, It was every dude and dude-ette for themselves, as the teams were busted up. But that didn't stop most of the Grips from sticking together. Sky wowed everyone with her gymnast skills. The cast made it out of a fake exploding building, but failed to defuse some serious stink bombs. Which forced them to de-stink in tomato juice baths, I love my job." Chris recapped, "In the end Sky and Duncan won a fabulous reward, a trip to a local stinky cheese factory!"
"Will the Grips alliance make it far? And will Sky and Duncan be able to make the whole day without arguing, all of this on today's episode of Total! Drama! Action!" Chris said.
(After theme song)
We first cut to Mal sleeping in his trailer alone before he heard a banging noise.
"Ugh." Mal growled before opening the door to the guys' trailer to see Heather outside.
"What?" Mal asked, annoyed at Heather's arrival.
"Look, I should probably tell you now that the former Gaffers are forming an alliance against you and pretty much everyone else." Heather told the Malevolent One.
"Hmm, that does sound like something they would do, so what should we do about it?" Mal began putting a finger to his chin in thought.
"I say we form an alliance to get rid of the Gaffers and try to convince Duncan and Sky to vote with us." Heather suggested.
"Ha, after Duncan's little stunt I doubt Sky will be working with him." Mal said angrily.
"Oh I think I'll be able to convince her, just you wait." Heather smirked.
Soon we see night turn to day as a high pitched scream was heard, we then see that Chef was in a pink floral nightgown, tied up and dangling from a rope above a street.
Soon the final seven who were still in their pajamas began walking over to the scene.
"What is going on out here?" Duncan yawned.
"And why is Chef wearing a nightgown?" Noah asked, disgusted.
Soon we see Chris was on top of a building wearing a batman-esque costume with a floodlight at his back and a rope around his waist. He then jumped off the roof and caught Chef while being held by the bungee, Chris and Chef soon were going upwards by the rope, until it broke sending them both to the ground.
"I knew that bungee wouldn't hold!" Chris yelled angrily, with his hair disheveled as he got off of Chef, "That's what happens when production cheaps out! And now my hair is all mussed up!"
"Can you please explain what is going on here?" Mal asked, annoyed.
"When! I! Feel! Like! It!" Chris said angrily while fixing up his hair and once he did he had a calm smile, "And now I feel like it! Today's challenges are inspired by the superhero flick!"
"Today's challenge?" Heather asked incredulously, "No way we just woke up and we're still a bit drowsy."
"And we haven't even had breakfast yet." Amy said angrily.
"I'm going back to bed." Duncan said dismissively but he was stopped by Chris.
"Evil never sleeps, and neither will you! Besides, superheroes don't do the things of mere mortals! They have screaming ladies to rescue!" Chris said as Chef was shown fanning himself.
"There are some mortal superheroes like Owl Man." Amy said before everyone looked at her in surprise, which provoked an angered response from her, "What I like comic books, sue me!"
"And would you go toe to toe with an owl who can claw your eyes out?" Chris asked pointedly.
"Okay you have a point." Amy said, annoyed.
"Yeah I thought so." Chris smirked, "There are three things intrinsic to all good superhero movies, One: superheroes have super powers. Two: superheroes save people. And my personal favorite, three: superheroes wear tights. Which means you will all be wearing teensy-tiny tights!"
Everyone cringed at this superhero fact as Chris continued to speak, "Why are you all in your PJs?" Chris scowled. "Get dressed and meet me back on set at superhero speed. Which means, you should already be back here." Chris then laughed at his own joke, "And make sure to wear something that goes with brightly-hued spandex!"
Soon we see everyone walking back to the trailers when Mal begins to taunt Noah, "Well Noah, I'm not sure if this challenge really fits you, after all you aren't exactly a hero." Mal smirked.
"I wouldn't be talking if I were you, Malevolence." Noah smirked back, "You aren't exactly heroic yourself."
Confessional:
"Mal's just making himself an easier target by the minute. Soon me, DJ, and Amy are gonna vote him off and then he will finally be gone." Noah smirked.
XXX
"Noah has no idea what me and Heather have planned, by the time we're done that pathetic alliance will be no more." Mal laughed.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to the cast mates standing between Chris, some sewing machines, and a few bins of cloth.
"For your first challenge, each of you will create your own superhero identity." Chris announced.
"Alright." DJ cheered.
"You'll make your own superhero costume using nothing but your fertile imagination, and tons of spandex!" Chris continued before adding, "And some other junk."
"You'll be judged on originality and style of costume, how rocking your superpower is, and how cool your superhero name is! Top score wins an advantage in the next round. Chef will, of course, play the supervillain which let's face it, won't be much of a stretch." Chris said.
Soon a green-and-yellow circular logo of snake's head spun rapidly to the camera then zoomed out to reveal Chef in a python costume along with an orange cat in a green mask.
"Meet, Pythonicus and his sidekick kitty, Dander Boy! They will sabotage you at every turn." Chris announced.
"Any questions?" Chris asked and all seven contestants raised their hands which Chris ignored, "No? Perfect! Aaaannnd, action!"
Soon we see Amy running up to a yellow roll of spandex and grabbing it when Heather tries to take it away from her, "Give it to me, it's mine."
"No it's not." Amy said before kicking Heather in the stomach making the Queen Bee recoil in pain as Amy runs off.
Confessional:
"She is going down." Heather said angrily.
Confessional Ends
The Pythonicus circle spun to the camera as it cut to Chef's sabotages.
We first see Amy measuring a green small shirt when Chef releases Dander boy onto the shirt which the cat then tore up much to Amy's shock.
We then cut to DJ picking out a log but then Chef's hand grabs the log and shredding is heard off-screen.
We then see Mal staring at Chef with a bored frown in which Chef walked away in annoyance.
We then see Sky sewing a purple outfit when Chef was under the table and place a loose wire on the sewing wire and then Sky began to get electrocuted.
Soon we see the snake logo spin and we see Chef and Dander Boy doing poses in their costumes.
We then cut to Chris, Chef, and Dander Boy at the judges' table where a model walkway was.
"Now wearing a superhero costume of her own design, our first supermodel." Chris said.
Soon the curtain opened up to reveal Amy in a green shirt and green shorts.
Chris then sighed and began speaking, "State your name and superpower."
"I am Green Girl, and my superpower is bending nature to help me fight bad guys." Amy said as she took a water balloon out of her pocket and threw it at Dander Boy making it hiss and run away.
"Well that's worth a whole five points." Chris said nonchalantly.
Soon DJ showed up with a bunch of wood wrapped around him.
"Well this looks stupid." Chris said plainly.
"I am The Lumber Man, and I can grow trees and make fires with the wood." DJ explained.
"Really, that's your superpower, two points." Chris sighed in annoyance.
Next up was Noah who had glasses and a brain hat on his head.
"Seriously, this is getting lazy." Chris complained.
"I am Brain Boy, my superpower is the ability to read people's minds." Noah smirked, "Currently you are thinking about how awesome and spectacular you are."
"Hmm, I definitely am." Chris smirked, "You get nine points because the costume was a bit lazy."
"Yes." Noah cheered.
Next up was Duncan who just had a fake eye on his forehead.
"This is worse than Noah's costume, and where are your tights?!" Chris yelled out.
"I don't do spandex," Duncan replied. "I'm The All-Seeing Eye and I've got psychic powers. I can see into the future."
"This is a waste of my time, you only get one point." Chris said which made Duncan roll his real eyes before walking away.
Heather soon showed up wearing a bee costume and had three darts in her hand.
"I am the Queen Bee, and my superpower is being able to sting my victims to submission." Heather smirked before putting a dart into a mini tube and then shot it out, hitting Chef's shoulder, he soon was knocked out.
"Well that was pretty hilarious, you get eight points." Chris laughed as he wrote down the score on his paper.
Next was Mal and he was wearing a white shirt and pants with four stripes, one red, one blue, one yellow, and one green, "I am Multi Man, and I can harness many abilities."
Mal soon took out a lasso, used it to snare Noah, hoist him up, jump, do a flip, and stomp on Noah's back.
"Ow!" Noah said in a squeaky voice.
"Whoa, that was pretty cool dude, you get nine points." Chris smirked.
"What?! That's so unfair he never stated what his abilities are!" Heather said incredulously.
"Yes but he said he had many so I count it." Chris countered making Heather scoff.
Soon we see Sky dressed in a black leotard and did a backflip onstage.
"I am Gymnast Gal, and my superpower is doing very good flips and I have super reflexes." Sky explained.
"Like you do every day, yeah you get five points for at least wearing tights and doing something cool." Chris said.
Sky huffed in annoyance but accepted the score anyway.
"Anyway since I am the judge of this competition, I declare the winner to be Mal." Chris smirked.
Mal smirks as everyone groans in annoyance.
"You may have won the first one but we'll see who comes out on top next round." Heather glares at Mal before giving him a subtle wink.
"I love this job." Chris smirks at the camera.
(After commercial break)
Soon we see a fake city obstacle course with a wooden burning building with wooden flames up on stilts, then a mattress laying in front of a forest backdrop, then a fake skyscraper, and at the end there was a large trampoline in front of an evening backdrop on the far right.
"For your second challenge, we will be testing your super prowess." Chris announced to the final seven.
Confessional:
"I hope Chris doesn't think we have actual superpowers. Although I do have a lot of great abilities I'm not a superhero." Sky said.
Confessional Ends
"You'll have to leap over a building in a single bound," Chris told the contestants, "using this trampoline from the set of the movie Trampoline Thunder 2! Awesome flick," Chris gave a thumbs-up at the camera. "You'll be judged on how far and how high you jump," Chris continued and the camera soon cut to a diving board on the top of the ladder. "And please, properly time your landing as we wouldn't want you to land anywhere other than on this soft, cushy mattress."
Once he said that the camera cut to Dander Boy, who was washing his paw with his tongue but soon a spring popped up sending the cat flying.
The contestants minus Mal gasped in shock before Chris continued, "Our first and foremost priority at Total Drama Action is your safety and well-being," Chris then told them before he broke out into laughter. "Next, you'll have to save a woman falling from a building," Chris said as the camera panned over to the wooden building with fake fire.
"The woman will be played by a sack of potatoes in a dress," he said as Chef(still in his snake costume) leaned out of the building's window holding the dressed-up sack. "Which will be a real catch for you guys," Chris quipped, pointing at an annoyed Duncan.
Confessional:
"Like Chris is one to talk," Duncan said angrily, "He probably had dinner with that thing last night."
Confessional Ends
A brief clip shows Chris and the sack of potatoes at a red carpeted table, Chris soon pours some wine for the sack.
"And finally you'll walk across a power line during a meteor shower!" The camera showed some power lines with a few mattresses below them, and Pythonicus tossing a bowling ball in one hand. He tossed it, and it went straight through a water tower which caused water to come gushing out of both ends.
"The person to finish the course with the best time wins invincibility, Mal you're up first, ten seconds will be shaved off your time for winning the first challenge." Chris said, making Mal smirk haughtily.
"And action." Chris said with a stopwatch in hand, the camera flashed to Mal jumping off the diving board and then he flipped onto a trampoline, soon he landed on the mattresses. Chef then dropped the sack of potatoes and Mal caught it before throwing it away.
Mal was then seen on the power line as he dodged the bowling balls Chef threw.
And soon he made it off the power line and finished with a smirk.
"And Mal got twenty five seconds but due to his advantage he's docked down to fifteen." Chris announced.
Mal then walked by Noah and smirked at him, "Top that Brainless Brat."
Noah just glared at him before a montage began.
First we saw Duncan running on a power line, he got hit with a bowling ball and almost fell but grabbed onto the wire and swung back on top of them.
DJ tried to keep his balance on the wires but he fell on a wire and it electrocuted him.
Next Noah jumped on the trampoline, he soon lost balance and landed on the mattress which had a spring bounce on his face.
We then see Heather expertly dodge the bowling balls and had exceptional balance and made it to the end.
"While The Queen Bee did a surprisingly good job, the winner of the superhero challenge is Multiple Man." Chris said happily.
"As expected." Mal smirked haughtily, gaining glares from everyone but Heather did wink at him which went unnoticed.
"You all may be superheroes," Chris began, "but you smell super gross." Chris waved the clipboard over his face and said, "Time to hit the showers, and decide who's gonna get kicked to the curb."
Soon we cut to Noah and DJ in the guys' trailer, they were currently back in their normal clothes and were discussing strategy.
"I can't believe Mal is escaping elimination again." DJ complained.
"Whatever, we have to go with the second best option, I say we go for Duncan, Sky's probably planning to vote him out as we speak." Noah said.
"Great idea, he kinda deserves it anyway, why the heck would he betray her trust again?" DJ said sadly.
"It's Duncan, of course he betrayed her." Noah rolled his eyes.
"I guess that is true." DJ sighed.
"Perfect I'll go tell Amy, and soon Duncan is gone." Noah smirked.
Little did they know is that Mal was watching through the window.
Confessional:
"How adorable, they actually think they'll get Duncan booted." Mal snickered before speaking seriously, "Duncan's not going anywhere if I have a say in it."
Confessional Ends
Soon Duncan was seen heading to the bathroom when Mal pulled him back.
"Listen, the Screaming Gaffers have formed an alliance and right now they're planning on booting you out." Mal said bluntly.
"You've gotta be kidding me." Duncan said angrily, "And why should I believe you?"
"Because you probably would rather not risk leaving tonight and besides it will benefit your game if you get rid of an alliance this late in the game." Mal smirked.
"Ugh fine I'm in." Duncan grumbled.
"Excellent choice." Mal nodded, "You won't regret it."
Confessional.
"Yeah that last part was a giant lie." Mal snickered.
Confessional Ends
Heather was sitting in the Craft Services Tent when Mal showed up and soon whispered into her ear, "Duncan's on board now you gotta go convince Sky to vote for…"
Soon we cut to Sky at the girls' trailer when Heather soon walks over to her.
"What do you want Heather?" Sky grumbled.
"Listen, I know we're not on good terms but I gotta warn you, the Screaming Gaffers that aren't Mal are forming an alliance that will likely dominate the game if we don't do something about it soon and I was thinking we vote for…" Heather looked around before whispering in Sky's ear.
"Wait really?!" Sky asked incredulously.
"It's for their own safety given Mal's around and I know they have loose ends to tie up so it's honestly for the best." Heather admitted.
Sky looked around in thought.
Confessional:
"I wasn't lying to Sky, the person I plan on voting off really needs to leave for their sake, it just benefits us as well." Heather confessed.
Confessional Ends
Soon we cut to the Gilded Chris ceremony as the Gilded Chris theme played as a montage of Chris moments were shown.
"And now we vote." Chris smirked, we see Amy, Noah, and DJ sitting on the bottom row while Sky, Heather, Duncan, and Mal sit on the top row.
Noah smirks as he clicks his vote, DJ looks a bit guilty but submits his vote, Mal smirks maliciously as he votes, and finally Sky looks nervous but clicked on her vote.
"And the Gilded Chris go to…" Chris began before Chef was lowered down on a rope, still dressed as Pythonicous and handed out the results.
"Mal."
"Sky."
"Heather."
"DJ."
"Now we are down to the final three… Noah."
"Yes." Noah said with a smirk.
"And finally…"
Duncan looked nervous while Amy smiled.
"Duncan."
Duncan looked relieved but Amy looked shocked.
"What how is this possible?!" Noah asked incredulously.
"We figured out your Gaffers alliance, a well played but you were caught before the first merge vote." Heather smirked.
Noah and DJ looked at each other with fear now that their alliance was exposed.
"Okay but why me?" Amy asked sadly.
"You were in danger due to exposing Mal's plans plus I'm pretty sure you have loose ends to tie with Sammy. Sorry." Sky explained.
"You know what, I'm not upset, at least now I can leave with some dignity." Amy smirked, "Bye guys, I hope anyone but Mal or Heather wins."
Amy kept her smirk as she went into the Lame-o-sine and soon it drove away.
"Noah and DJ may not have seen that coming but you should come to see what's coming next on Total! Drama! Action!" Chris smiled.
Exclusive Clip: Amy
"Well I certainly did better than last time, I mean I did make the final seven and grew as a person so that's gotta count for something right?" Amy smiled, "While Mal is a disgrace to the world, he did show me how truly awful I was to Sammy, hopefully I can make things right between us. Is there a place where all the losers hang out like last time?"
Exclusive Clip Ends
Author's Note: Amy was originally meant to only be an ally to Mal but then I decided on having her be redeemed so she isn't so one note. Now that she's become a better person, I had to let her go.
