Lindsay had won the animal buddy challenge and is immune. Courtney tells Duncan that they will be voting Owen for working with Chris and for being the only option left. She also told him to memorize the 32 page letter by tomorrow morning and walked away. Duncan had been questioning his new old relationship with Courtney. With Duncan in his trailer.

Duncan: Let's see pros and cons on being in a relationship with Courtney. Cons, she's controlling, she's the my way or the highway type of girl, she's uptight, she always wants to change me, she kicks me in the kiwis, and the 32 page letter. And the pros, she's hot. Argh they both weigh each other out evenly. I need some fresh air.

Duncan walked out of the trailer and took a stroll around. When he was near the confessional trailer, he heard Courtney mention his name in there and decided to take a listen from the side.

Courtney: (confessional) I so have this game in the bag. When Owen gets eliminated, me and Duncan can easily take out Lindsiot. And after that it's me vs Duncan. I'm gonna have Duncan let me win. Having him study that letter will have him too tired to compete. And once I win I'm gonna dump his sorry butt. But on the off chance he doesn't let me win and he wins he'll still wanna split it. All he'll have to do is sign this document stating that we split the money. But the fine print says that I actually will receive all the money he wins. And knowing him he won't give the fine print a single glance. Of course none of that will happen because I've got him rapped around my finger. He'll do whatever I say. This plan may not have worked last season, but it will this time. Lindsay may have thought she was making me jealous with taking Duncan to the movies, but she was actually doing me a favor. A night without that ogre is a good night. That millions dollars is as good as mine.

Duncan couldn't believe what he just heard. Courtney was only using him for the money and was planning on dumping him soon after. Deciding that he heard enough ran back to the trailer. Courtney then walked out of the confessional and to the females trailer. Both Duncan and Courtney were unaware that a certain blonde was standing behind the confessional and heard everything Courtney said. She also saw Duncan running away to the trailers, letting her know that he heard everything too. Upset at what Courtney was doing went to go find Owen who was of course eating in the mess hall tent.

Lindsay: Hey Owen.

Owen: Hey Lindsay. I'm sorry about the whole being a mole thing.

Lindsay: It's ok, but I wanna know who you plan on voting for tonight.

Owen: I was thinking Duncan. I like him but he eats more than you or Courtney, so more for me.

Lindsay: "in a serious tone" Owen, I need you to vote for Courtney with me tonight.

Owen: Why?

Lindsay then explained to Owen everything that had happened. By now Owen was feeling a mix of shock and anger.

Owen: How can she just use him like that. It's just wrong, poor Duncan he doesn't deserve that. I'm so voting for Courtney.

Lindsay: Good, Courtney is as good as gone.

Later at the awards ceremony. Everyone was waiting for Duncan. When he showed up his eyes were red and puffy and he looked miserable. Courtney just assumed he was tired, but Lindsay and Owen know that he'd been crying, as much as he'd decline it.

Chris: Well this is it, we're nearing the end ppl. Time to vote.

Everyone votes and the screen cuts into squares with everyone in one and chris is in the middle.

Chris: The gilded Chris goes to, LINDSAY.. and.. DUNCAN!! Courtney, since everyone voted for you, ur eliminated. Owen, I'll deal with you in a moment.

Courtney: WHAT! You voted for ME Duncan?! Why?!

Duncan: BECAUSE UR A FUCKING BITCH!!!

Everyone, even Chris and Chef, were startled from Duncan's roar.

Courtney: "anger building up" What did you just say?!

Duncan: YOU HEARD ME YOUR A FUCKING STUCK UP USING SON OF A BITCH. I HEARD EVERYTHING YOU SAID IN THE CONFESSIONAL. THIS WHOLE FREAKING TIME YOU WERE JUST USING ME TO GET THE MONEY. YOU WERE GONNA TRY AND TRICK ME INTO GIVING YOU THE FLIPPING MONEY.. DESPITE YOU ALWAYS BOSSING ME AROUND AND TRYING TO CHANGE ME KICK ME IN THE KIWIS AND GIVE ME A 32 PAGE LETTER I STILL LOVED YOU AND WAS WILLING TO LOOK PAST ALL OF THAT AND THIS IS WHAT I GET FROM IT. I KNOW I CAN BE A JERK AT TIMES BUT I DON'T BETRAY THE PPL I CARE ABOUT. I MAKE FRIENDS, YOU DON'T. I EVEN SHOW RESPECT FOR PEOPLE I DON'T LIKE. HAROLD MAY BE A DORK BUT HE PROVED HIS WORTH THIS SEASON. YOU CAN'T THINK OF ANYONE KR ANYTHING BUT YOU AND WINNING. IDK WHY I CHOSE TO PUT UP WITH YOU. NOW I WANNA HERE IT. I WANNA HERE WHAT YOU REALLY THINK ABOUT ME AND ONCE UR DONE I'LL LEAVE WITHOUT SAYING A WORD!

Courtney: Ok, you wanna know what I think, I THINK YOU ARE THE MOST OBNOXIOUS AND STUPID PERSON I'VE EVER MET! I INLY PRETEND TO LIKE YOU ALL THIS TIME TO GET MYSELF CLOSER TO THE MONEY. THE ONLY REASON I DIDN'T BREAK UO WITH YOU WHEN YOU WERE ELIMINATED LAST SEASON WAS BECAUSE I HEARD 2 INTERNS TALKING ABOUT A SEASON 2, SO I PLANNED TO USE YOU AGAIN. AND UR DUMB FOR THINKING I WAS INTO AN OGRE LIKE YOU. I LEFT YOU BEHIND WHEN YOU WERE FIGHTING THE ALLIGATOR LAST SEASON, I WAS WILLING TO LET YOU AND THE OTHERS DIE IN AN EXPLODING BUILDING AND I GIVE YOU A 32 PAGE LETTER, YET YOU STILL CHOSE TO STAY WITH ME. THAT'S UR FAULT FOR BEING LIKE A LOST PUPPY. NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS YOU STILL CHOOSE TO COME BACK YOU LOVE ME. YOU MUST HAVE SOME IMAGINATION IF YOU THINK A STUPID CRIMINAL LIKE YOU CAN GET WITH A PERFECT CIT LIKE ME! UR PARENTS WERE RIGHT TO ALMOST GIVE YOU UP FOR ADOPTION. UR NOT WORTH ANYONE'S TIME. ALL UR GOOD FOR IN THIS WORLD IS GOING TO JUVIE. HONESTLY, THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD BE BETTER OFF IF YOU WERE DEAD?! THERE I SAID HOW I REALLY FEEL HAPPY?!

Duncan did what he said and walked off somewhere without saying a word.

Everyone stood in silence for a minute to take in what just happened. Finally, Lindsay spoke.

Lindsay: HOW COULD YOU DO SUCH AN AWFUL THING COURTNEY?!

Courtney: WHAT, YOU GOT SOMETHING YOU WANNA SAY?!

Lindsay: YES I DO! YOU'RE THE WORST PERSON I'VE EVER MET, EVEN WORSE THAN HEATHER! DUNCAN MAY NOT BE THE NICEST PERSON IN THE WORLD, BUT HE CAN STILL BE NICE WHEN HE WANTS AND I THINK HE'S A GOOD PERSON. HE CAN MAKE FRIENDS, HE CAN RESPECT HIS ENEMIES, AND HE HAS COMPASSION FOR OTHER PPL. HE FOUND DJ A NEW BUNNY BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT HIM TO BE SAD. HE ALSO HAVE FEELINGS, AS MUCH AS HE TRIES TO HIDE IT. AFTER HE HEARD WHAT YOU SAID EARLIER HE RAN OFF TO THE TRAILER CRYING. AND I SHOULD KNOW BECAUSE I WAS BEHIND THE CONFESSIONAL WHEN YOU SAID IT. AND I KNOW IT WOULD TAKE ALOT FOR DUNCAN TO CRY. AFTER EVERYTHING HE WAS WILLING TO DO FOR YOU, YOU JUST STAB HIM IN THE BACK. ALL YOU EVER THINK OF IS YOURSELF AND YOU ACT LIKE UR QUEEN OF THE WORLD. UR NOTHING MORE THAN NO GOOD TWO FACED BACKSTABBING LYING LITTLE *!!!

Lindsay them pushed Courtney into the Lame o Sine.

Chris: Ratings Ratings Ratings! Anywho Owen, sorry to say this but you've been fired.

Owen: What, why?

Chris: What's the point of having a spy who's being spied?

Owen: Can I at least wait for the lame o sine to come back? I don't wanna be in there with her.

Chris: Sure why not.

Owen: Phew

Lindsay: I'm going to go look for Duncan.

Owen: K, goodluck.

Lindsay began to search for Duncan. She checked the trailers, mess hall, and confessional. Finally after 20 minutes she found him standing at the edge of the giant fake cliff look down. Duncan looked like he was about to jump, and was about to until Lindsay ran up to him.

Lindsay: DUNCAN WAIT DON'T DO IT. "grabs his arm"

Duncan: Let me go!

Lindsay: No, I'm not about to let you kill yourself!

Duncan: Why shouldn't I, Courtney's right all I'm good for is going to juvie. The world would be better off with me gone.

Lindsay: NO THAT'S NOT TRUE! "have tears in her eyes"

Duncan: Yes it is! If my own parents don't care about me then who does?!

Lindsay: ALL OF UR FRIENDS. OWEN, GWEN, DJ, GEOFF, AND ME!

Duncan just stared at her in disbelief.

Lindsay: "hugs Duncan with tears in her eyes" plz Duncan lets talk, I can't let this happen to someone else.

Duncan: "thinking" someone else?

Lindsay: plz Duncan, plz?

After about 10 seconds, Duncan hugs her back.

Duncan: Ok. I won't do it.

They stay in a hug for another 30 seconds b4 pulling away.

Lindsay: Thx

Duncan just nods. They go and sit on one of the sets on the cliff.

Duncan: I guess I should thank you.

Lindsay: For what?

Duncan: For 1, stopping me from jumping. Now looking back it would have been a mistake, especially since I wasn't thinking straight. And 2, for what you said to Courtney back there after I left.

Lindsay: You heard that?

Duncan: Ya you were yelling and I didn't get to far away so I was able to here everything.

Lindsay: Oh, well no problem.

Duncan: Did you really mean what you said back there, that you think I'm a good person?

Lindsay: Of course I meant it. Duncan, you may do some bad things, but you do good things to. If weren't a good person then you wouldn't bother to make friends with anyone but you do. You've even help and support them when needed. And ur not dumb for believing in Courtney, you just cared about her just like you care about everyone else. Even though you have a feud with Harold, you still managed to find respect for him.

Duncan: Ya, I was actually thinking about apologizing and ending my feud with him.

Lindsay: See, that's another thing. Ur willing to put differences aside. Everything Courtney said back there was a lie. Ur not a bad person and ur not better off dead. You may have done some things in the past, but you've got ur whole life to make up for it. Don't let Courtney get into ur head. You've got friends that'll always be there for you, including me.

Duncan took some time to process what Lindsay said while Lindsay just sat there patiently waiting for him to speak again, finally he did.

Duncan: You're right Lindsay. I'm not gonna let Courtney get the best if me. I'm not giving up completely on my bad boy status, but whatever happens I'll just roll along with it. I'm gonna be there for all my friends, starting with you.

Lindsay: What do you mean?

Duncan: Back near the cliff you said you can't let this happen to someone else, what did you mean by that?

Lindsay: Well-

Duncan: If you don't wanna talk about it it's alright.

Lindsay: No, it's ok I'll tell you. When I was 12 me and my best friend Jade were talking at school when she got a text from her uncle. It said that her parents had died in a car crash. Jade was so sad and didn't talk to anyone since then. The next few weeks she kept herself from everyone and wouldn't speak, eat, or sleep. Then a few days later she stopped showing up to school completely. Then one Friday day her uncle showed up at my house. "starts to tear up"

Duncan places a hand on her shoulder and waits fir her to continue.

Lindsay: "in a cracking voice" he said that she committed suicide and hung herself. He also said he found a note she wrote to me. I still remember it word from word. It said, Dear Lindsay, I can't live like this anymore. I feel so lost without my parents and I can't take it. So I'm going to see them again. Unfortunately this means that I won't be able to see you again. I just wanted you to know that you are the nicest, sweetest, and most caring person I've ever known. Promise me that if anyone is ever going through something similar to me, you do what you can to help them. Maybe I'll see you again someday. But until then, take care and have a good life. Love Jade.

By now Lindsay was sobbing softly and Duncan wrapped his arm around her and let her crying in his shoulder. They stayed that way for a good 5 minutes b4 Lindsay's sobbing started to come to a stop and she lifted her head.

Lindsay: Thanks Duncan.

Duncan: For what?

Lindsay: For listening, and for consoling me.

Duncan: Oh, no problem. If anything I should be thanking you, for everything you did for me just now.

Lindsay: Of course Duncan, what are friends for.

They hug and then made their way back to the ceremony stage where Chris was with Owen who was about to leave.

Owen: There you guys are. I was about to leave but I wanted to see you guys first. Are you alright Duncan?

Duncan: Don't worry about me big O. Thanks to Lindsay, I'm all better now.

Owen: That's good.

Chris: Alright Owen, the Lame o Sine is here.

Owen: Alright Chris. Bye you guys and good luck tomorrow in the finale. "hugs them"

Duncan and Lindsay: Bye Owen.

Owen got in the Lame o Sine and rode off.

Chris wraps an arm around Duncan and Lindsay.

Chris: Duncan, Lindsay, the final 2. One of you will become a millionaire. And the other, will not. "pushes them down" tune in next time for the finale of, TOTAL, DRAMA, ACTION!!!

Cameraman: And we're out.

Duncan: Were you guys still on air the whole time we were gone?

Chris: No, were just gonna edit it so it seems like it all happened just now. Anywho, you 2 better get some rest for tomorrow.

As he says that the final 2 made their way back to the trailers and are now standing outside.

Duncan: Let's make a promise.

Lindsay: Sure what is it?

Duncan: Let's promise to give it our all tomorrow give everyone a finale they'll never forget.

Lindsay: It's a deal "shakes his hand"

Duncan: Good. And again thanks for everything.

Lindsay: No problem Duncan.

They hug and go inside their trailers. Getting a good night sleep for tomorrow.
