"Last time on Total Drama Island… Things really got cooking between the campers. Sky pushed Dave over the edge in the cook-off challenge after Sky informed him of a certain boyfriend. Jasmine led the Screaming Gophers to a messy victory. And the Killer Bass lost once again. It was catch-ya later Cameron. Can the Gophers keep to their winning ways? And just how much trust do they have in one another? Find out this week on Total. Drama. Island!
Cameras cut to the Mess Hall
"Today's breakfast is Hawaiian-Italian fusion casserole!" Chef said to an approaching Trent.
"Sounds… delightful…" Trent grumbled.
"Isn't this leftovers from the cooking challenge?" Sky asked.
"Yeah and what of it?" Chef interrogated.
"Nothing! Nothing!" Sky said, scampering off.
Duncan walked up to the coffee table filled with coffee mugs and coffee canisters, looking left then right he snagged a mug and stuffed it up his shirt.
"Hey I saw you steal that mug," Courtney pointed out.
"Yeah so?"
"Why would you do that? You might get kicked off."
"It looks cool, I don't have one which is another bonus. But a better question would be why do you care?"
"Because I don't want to lose another team member if we don't have to."
"Aw and here I thought you didn't care about me."
"I don't, but I would rather keep as many advantages as possible over the Gophers."
"Oh you dig me."
"I DO NOT!" Courtney stated, stomping off.
Confessional, Chris
Hi. Chris, here. Sometimes teams just don't get along. So the producers and I thought the best way to work through the group friction would be… to exploit it for laughs! This is gonna be awesome!
Camera cuts to Chris in the Mess Hall
"So, the last challenge exposed a few Gopher issues. And I'm sensing a little something funky floating in the Bass pond, too. So, this week's challenge is going to be centered around building trust. Because all good things begin with a little trust."
Confessional, Dave
I trusted Sky once. She broke my heart with a sledgehammer.
Confessional, Sky
I really, really need to get across to Dave again. I trust him the most and I can't believe I was stupid to let it go hanging!
"There will be three major challenges that will have to be completed by two or more members of your team. Normally, we like to have the campers choose their partners, but not this time! More fun for me!"
Camera cuts to Chris in front of a cliff face
"Okay! So for the first challenge, you'll be doing an extreme freehand rock climbing adventure! Heather and Marilyn will play for the Bass. Scarlett and Jasmine for the Gophers."
"Seriously!? HER?!" All four girls exclaimed at the same time.
Confessional, Jasmine
I don't trust her. I don't like her. And I certainly want her gone. I swear if she pulls anything she'll be deader than anything that enters the Australian Outback.
Confessional, Marilyn
I don't trust her. I don't like her. And I certainly want her gone. I swear if she pulls anything she'll be deader than any dweeb who enters gym class for the first time.
"Here's your belay and harness," Chris said, tossing said equipment to Jasmine and Marilyn respectively.
"How it works is like this: one camper pulls the slack through the belay as their partner climbs. If the climber falls, the belay will stop them from crashing. The catch?"
"Of course there's a catch," Jackson groaned, his eye roll barely visible under his mask.
"SHUT IT! As I was saying, both the side and the base of the mountain are rigged with a few minor distractions like…Rusty nails... Slippery oil slicks... Mild explosives and …A few other surprises," Chris snickered.
"Define other surprises," Marilyn asked.
"You'll see, you'll see," Chris smirked, sending shivers down Marilyn's spine.
"I'll climb sheila. We do this kind of stuff all the time back in Australia," Jasmine cockily stated.
"Sure… sure," Scarlett replied.
"Oh and if you drop me. I'll be sure to drop you."
"Uh huh."
"You want to climb or should I?" Marilyn asked.
"You climb. No way am I letting you hold me up," Heather replied.
"And what makes you think I want you to?"
"Because if you make me go against that beast of a girl we'll for sure lose!"
"Fine, but if there's any funny business it'll be your head on the chopping block for real tonight."
"Whatever."
Time Skip
"On your mark get set go!" Chris shouted
Jasmine and Marilyn began to climb up the rock wall at an impressively fast rate, but that came to a halt extremely quick.
"Habanero sauce anyone!?" Chris shouted. Chris pulled out a red plastic gun that shot out a wave of habanero at Scarlett and Heather. Heather got doused with the spicy sauce causing her to drop Marilyn slightly before grabbing the rope.
"HEATHER!" Marilyn shouted.
"I got it, I got it. Now keep climbing!" Heather shouted back.
Scarlett on the other hand managed to block the sauce thanks to her glasses preventing it from hitting her eyes. Leaving her temporarily blind she managed to wipe off the sauce with her shirt sleeve leaving a red stain on her yellow vest.
"What the heck was that Chris?!" Heather yelled.
"I promised surprises, didn't I? Haha!" Chris fired off another round of hot sauce but his gun fell off of his hands and sprayed wildly. Jackson stepped in front of Katie, who hardly got a splash on her. Duncan, on the other hand, threw Courtney in front of him. Dave and Sky both got a full facial of hot sauce. Their other teammates ducked behind a bush.
Confessional, Dave
(He rubs his eyes vigorously) I think I'm allergic to hot sauce!
Confessional, Duncan
(He shrugs) Better her than me! This mohawk already got hot sauce in it once, it ain't gonna happen again.
Confessional, Katie
Jackson, such a gentleman. But I could have easily gotten hot sauce off of me, Sadie and I once got hot sauce all over our hair trying to impress this cute guy who worked at the Xanderbombie and Lich kiosk. He was so understanding, but he wasn't as cute as Jackson.
As the climbers continued to climb Chris pulled out of his back pocket-as if this was a cartoon- a detonators box. Grabbing a hold of the handle he pushed it down causing an array of explosions across the face of the cliff, sending Jasmine flying off the cliff and Scarlett being unable to help support her weight as she fell down flew up with her causing the pair to be suspended mid air bouncing against each other like a pendulum. Leading to a Marilyn and Heather win as well as a round one win for the Bass.
"LET'S GO!" Marilyn cheered.
"And the Killer Bass win round one. Now onto the Mess Hall for round two."
The camera cut to Jasmine and Scarlett, upside down. "What about us?!" Jasmine cried worriedly.
"Ugh fine." Chris turned on his walkie talkie and radioed for the interns. "Yeah, both of them are upside down. How dumb is that?"
"Please hurry up Chris, even the most accomplished yogis who specialize in turning their bodies inverted last for but a mere dozen minutes at a time. I'm already starting to feel-"
"Just get me down so I don't have to deal with this idiot!" Jasmine shouted.
The interns managed to get a mat under the two girls. One of them, a chubby one with glasses, fired a gun above where they were tied together. They tumbled to the mat.
Confessional, Scarlett
Hanging upside down and suffering from a lack of oxygen going to my heavier organs wasn't the bad part. No, it was hanging out with Jasmine.
Confessional, Marilyn
Do I trust Heather now? Of course….NOT!
(she puts on a straight face, holds it for five seconds, and falls onto the floor, laughing)
SHE GOT HOT SAUCE IN HER BREASTS!
Camera cuts to a view of a podium in the Mess Hall
A stunt actor comes flying in doing multiple somersaults before landing behind the podium and Chris appearing as said stunt actor crawled out from behind the podium.
"And now, round two! The extreme. Cooking. Challenge!" As Chris spoke the stunt actor crawled away. "For this challenge, why don't we have the lovebirds in denial. Sky and Dave for the Gophers and Courtney and Duncan for the Bass."
"I don't like him/her!" Courtney and Dave both shouted.
"Whatever. Anyways today you'll be preparing Fugu sashimi, the traditional Japanese poisonous blowfish." A gong plays as some clips of the fugu fish appear. "The Fugu Blowfish contains enough lethal toxins to kill thirty people." Everyone's eyebrows raised, some mainly Duncan in intrigue others in fear of the repercussions.
Confessional, Sky
I really need to win this challenge. To help our team avoid elimination and win back Dave's trust. I still like him but I just hope not all is lost.
Confessional, Duncan
Courtney better not kill me, and if she does… then I'll… I'll… haunt her from the grave. Yeah that!
Confessional, Courtney
I'm this close to shoving this stupid fish into his mouth. That'll finally shut him up. But no, we need to be strong.
"You know how to cook?" Duncan asked Courtney nervously.
"Of course I do, I was a CIT," Courtney stated confidently.
"Alright princess…"
Sky and Dave eyed the blowfish nervously. "How...how about I cook?" Sky suggested.
"Fine." Dave replied, obviously still angry.
"Do you have a preference in how I cook it?"
"Just in a way so that you don't kill me," the "normal" guy said in a cold tone, crossing his arms and turning the opposite direction, not really wanting to deal with his teammate anymore. Sky just signed in defeat as she prepared for the challenge.
Confessional, Sky
A close relative of the fugu fish inhabits the waters of my tribe's reservation So not killing him shouldn't be a problem. I just wish Dave would give me the time of day to explain myself a bit.
"Fishes meet your maker," Chef said deviously as he placed a fish in front of each Sky and Courtney.
"They must be sliced very carefully to cut around the poisonous organs. The poison paralyzes the nerves and there is an antidote. So no worries." The host put away a diagram of the fish and the cameras pointed to the contestants quickly.
"Your CIT training teach you basic Biology?" Duncan asked his partner.
"Nervous, bad boy?" Courtney tauntingly replied.
"That doesn't answer my question."
"Yes of course it did. Passed with flying colors too."
"I hope so." Duncan looked at the fish and swore that it blinked at him. "Stupid thing," he griped.
"BEGIN!" Chris shouted.
Confessional, Courtney
The knife work's gonna be easy! You just need to pretend that it's the face of an arrogant, foolhardy, juvenile, hunky, adorable-
STUPID PUNK!
Some cooking and nervous sweating later
"Finished!" Sky called out.
"Finally. Done!" Courtney stated right after.
Sky's fish was cooked in a sushi type form while Courtney's seemed to be a small filet.
"Well… at least it's not ketchupy mush," Duncan observed, before taking a bite. His eyes widen, gaging. "Mmph!" Once he got the bit of fish down his throat, he frowned at Courtney. "Jeez Princess, ever heard of seasoning? This tastes awful!"
Courtney glared in annoyance, "Oh...quit complaining! Having bland fish is still better than being dead!"
"Whatever," Duncan remarked before continuing to go back to eating.
Dave meanwhile was extremely hesitant to eat the food. "Come on Dave if you don't eat we'll lose the challenge," Sky motivated.
The neat freak finally took a reluctant bite into the food and his eyes seemed to light up at the taste. It was not long before he took another bite then another before Chris decided to call it.
"Well since Dave can't stop shoveling food into his mouth, I'd say that the Gophers win round two. Onto round three. Courtney hung her head in defeat while Duncan comforted her and Sky cheered before Dave walked off after finishing his plate.
Confessional, Dave
Sky didn't kill me? After how I acted? Well she wouldn't have stooped that low anyways.
"Good news. The third round involves three more challenges. It's the three blind challenges. It begins with the blind William Tell, followed by the blind trapeze, and culminating in the treacherous blind toboggan."
"Blind challenges?" Sammy asked, worried.
"Of course, now for the first challenge, like legendary marksman William Tell, you'll be knocking arrows off your partner's head with crab apples."
"Um, wasn't it the other way around?" Courtney deadpanned.
"Shush! Also, the shooter will be blindfolded! The person who knocks off the arrow while causing the least amount of facial damage wins," Chris said, firing an apple from his slingshot hitting a squirrel out of a tree.
"Aw, nuts! Leshawna and Zoey, you'll be one team. Brick and Sammy, you'll be the other."
Confessional, Zoey
I feel betrayed by what Leshawna did but even I know she won't try to screw me over during a challenge. She wants to win just as much as the rest of us… right?
Confessional, Sammy
Well thankfully I got Brick as my partner. He's the only one I can say I can one hundred percent trust.
"Is it okay if I shoot?" Zoey asked sort of timidly to Leshawna.
"Sure, honey," Leshawna responded, handing Zoey a blindfold and slingshot.
"I'll shoot the apples Sammy, if that's alright with you?" Brick said.
"Yeah it's cool Brick. Good luck," Sammy responded.
"Thanks." Brick blushed.
"Okay. Let's Rock 'n Roll!" Chris shouted indicating the start of the challenge.
As the challenge started Zoey and Brick took aim and began pelting their partners with apples. The spectators seemed to flinch as they watched the onslaught of apples hit their fellow campers. Legs, arms, chest, head, nothing was safe as apples kept being fired and missing their mark.
"Oof, this sister is going to be bruised tomorrow," Leshawna groaned in pain. She held her stomach in pain as another big apple hit her forehead.
"I-I hear you Leshawna. I ain't doing so hot either," Sammy responded. An apple narrowly missed the arrow on her head and exploded when it hit the ground behind her.
Confessional, Brick
Of course I feel bad that hit Sammy too many times! You don't learn how to shoot apples with a slingshot in basic training.
Confessional, Leshawna
Seems like Zoey's still mad at me for helping send home Cameron. I do feel bad, and I can't blame her, but girl, she needs to get her head in the game.
It felt like hours for Sammy and Leshawna but eventually an apple flew true through the sky and pierced the arrow atop one of the girls' heads.
"OH YES! Zoey you hit it!" Leshawna cheered.
"I did?!" Zoey asked unsure. She tore off her blindfold and saw the ghetto girl running to her with arms wide open.
"Yes girl. We won the challenge!"
"Yep. Killer Bass takes the lead two to one," Chris confirmed.
"I'm sorry Sammy," Brick apologized to Sammy, taking off his blindfold as he walked over to the cheerleader.
"It's alright Brick. It's not like I would've done any better," Sammy responded.
"Th-thanks?"
Brick placed a reassuring hand over Sammy's shoulder, causing the cheerleader to collapse rather quickly. "I'm fine!" she shouted. "Just leave me here for just a little bit."
Confessional, Brick
This challenge definitely did not go according to plan. Facepalms
"And now for the next challenge, the blind trapeze! To avoid serious injury, the trapeze has been set up over this pond... which is full of jellyfish." The cast momentarily gasped in response as some of the jellyfish caused a surge of electricity to rise up out of the water.
"Seriously dude? That's just not right," Duncan stated.
"You two will stand blindfolded on the platform until your partners tell you when to jump," Chris continued ignoring Duncan's comment.
"And then?" Heather asked.
"Then hopefully they'll catch you. Or that's gonna be one heck of a painful swim," Chris laughed. "Okay! I want Jackson and Scott for the Bass and Ryan and Shawn for the Gophers. Hut hut!"
Confessional, Ryan
Shawn's a cool guy. If I wasn't on the opposing alliance I'd actually like to work with him. I think we'll do well in this challenge.
Confessional, Jackson
I straight up just don't like Scott. I know he's a part of the reason that Heather is still here. And why Cameron-CAMERON! got eliminated. Worthless little rat.
Ryan and Jackson each decided to take the responsibility of carrying the others after they made their jump. Both adjusted themselves even as the trapezes creaked under their weight. "I hope that holds," Leshawna said off to the side.
"Alright Shawn, I'll count down from three, and when I say jump, you jump alright?" Ryan explained to Shawn as he swung upside down from the trapeze.
"Sounds good man," Shawn replied, giving a thumbs up. Hands on his blindfold, Shawn gingerly stepped to the end of the platform, only stopping when his toes felt the air.
Confessional, Shawn
I'm normally not so trusting of people, but Jasmine suggested that I open up a bit more. And it's not like Ryan is like Scarlett. He's been against us most of the times we voted, but at least he isn't an eel dipped in grease!
"Alright three… two… one… and jump!" Ryan shouted, to which Shawn jumped with his arms extended. He managed to grab a hold of Ryan's wrists and was then able to swing to safety to gain a point for their team.
"If Scott and Jackson are able to complete this they'll be able to win this for their team. But if they don't we'll have to go to a tiebreaker," Chris explained to the camera.
Jackson swung from the trapeze silently for over a minute, before Scott spoke up, "Are you going to tell me to go anytime soon?" Scott asked impatiently.
"Oh yeah… um go!" Jackson called out, faking nervousness, causing Scott to jump straight into a jellyfish filled pond.
"Well, looks like the Screaming Gophers win that challenge meaning we're going into the tie breaker challenge!" Chris seemingly cheered over Scott's screams of pain.
"Wait what about Scott?" Trent asked.
"Take him to the emergency tent," Chris said. "Come on people, we're all on a schedule!"
Confessional, Jackson
So I let him fall. Not a big deal. He'll survive.
Confessional, Scott
Bleep, HIM!
"And now, the final leg. The blind toboggan race," Chris stated, as the cameras cut to the cast standing in front of the massive hillside of Wawanawkwa.
"The what?" Trent asked,
"Each team will have a driver and a navigator. The driver steers while the navigator calls out the directions. Oh yeah. And the driver will be blindfolded!" Everyone gasped in reply. "Uh… let's see Trent and Scarlett, Katie and Heather. You guys haven't gone yet."
Confessional, Trent
I'm paired with SCARLETT?! Of all people?! Why why why why why why why why why?!
Confessional, Scarlett
I obviously expect to win this challenge. But if we lose then we just kick that annoying pest Jasmine to the curb.
Confessional, Heather
If we win then that little pill bug Katie and her friends survive another day… which is bad for me. Haven't you seen Reality TV? If people like her make it to the merge they run away with this game! Or we can lose and I can send them into their rightful place- Loserville. Scott did say that throwing challenges could be a good thing if used in the right situation.
The camera cut to Chef painting some clear looking liquid on the wooden sleds, "Just lubing 'em up. Get a little more speed going. Hehe." The four campers glanced at each other, all nervous, before they took their seats, Trent and Katie were blindfolded and in front of Scarlett and Heather who would be the navigators. Their teeth were clenched and their eyes seemed wide in fear as they awaited Chris' signal.
"On your marks. Get set…" Chris then blew an airhorn signalling them to go.
"Right, left, right, left, left again," Scarlett called in a voice strikingly similar to a GPS.
"Right… AH left. Tree in front of you, AH! Come on Katie keep it under control!" Heather yelled frantically.
"I'm TRYING!" Katie shouted.
"Left, right, right again and hit that hill over there," Scarlett continued navigating for Trent.
"Wait hill?" Trent questioned.
"Yes, it'll give us enough of a boost for the required vertical momentum in order to skip some of these rocks, thus cutting down our time."
"Um… okay then."
"RIGHT! RIGHT! WATCH OUT FOR THE TREE!" Heather shouted as Katie narrowly missed the obstacles.
"Left and right and then just go straight," Scarlett calmly spoke as the Trent and Scarlett duo crossed the line with little fanfare.
Confessional, Trent
That was nice and all. Almost like a sunday drive. But I still don't like her. I'm starting to wonder if she was giving me those directions for her sake rather than our team's sake. I'm still nine out of nine, but Katie and Heather...
The camera cut to a broken sled as Katie and Heather slammed into a tree.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME KATIE!" Heather yelled.
"Hey it's not my fault that you couldn't give half decent directions," Katie replied, blindfold still on her face.
"You could've at least tried to steer!"
"And maybe you could try not to be such a bleep!"
A crowd gathered around the tree as Katie and Heather got off their sled to turn their argument into an anime standoff..
Heather, taken aback by Katie's statement huffed in response, "Well maybe if you weren't so busy drooling over Jason Voorhees over there maybe we'd actually be halfway decent at challenges."
"Don't you dare call him that!"
"Aw did I strike a nerve?"
"I'll slap you into next week!"
"Like you could."
"Well at least people like me on this island. Unlike you, you have no friends."
"What do you mean? I have so many friends. Unlike you, I'm actually popular."
"Popular doesn't mean friend."
"Ugh whatever." Heather walked off clearly done with the argument.
"Hey I'm not done with you!" Katie shouted, chasing after Heather. As she strode to Heather she found herself wrapped in Jackson's massive arms.
"Hey it's okay. We'll send her packing tonight I swear," Jackson comforted.
Confessional, Heather
Katie just sealed her fate with that today. It's time for her little perky self to go.
Confessional, Katie
If she stays here another day I'm going to lose it. She is such an annoying little….
Confessional, Jackson
That was messy. I hope what Heather pulled is enough to send her packing. I know we'll be doing a lot of work tonight to keep Katie here.
After Challenge
Confessional, Katie
I know Leshawna voted Cameron out last time. But maybe she'll see that after Heather's performance today she'll be able to see that Heather is the right person to kick off.
"Hey Leshawna over here!" Katie called out waving Leshawna over to her. They sat down next to each other on the cabin steps.
"What's up girl?" Leshawna asked.
"I was wondering if I can count on your vote against Heather tonight?"
Leshawna paused for a moment before answering, "Heather has been a major pain, but wouldn't we be better off booting someone who's a bigger threat?"
Katie's eyebrow raised in response. "Who would you suggest?"
"We could go for Courtney right now."
"Why Courtney? Duncan and Scott are the power duo if you ask me. And besides they can be so mean sometimes."
"I know they are a power duo but Courtney is the lynch pin between them and Heather, Take her out and girl… we'll be livin' large."
"Hmm. I like it. But I'd rather see Heather off. Courtney deserves to be here. Can't say the same about Heather am I right?"
"I guess you're right. Guess I got big move-idis. You got my vote tonight."
"Sounds good Leshawna, see you tonight."
Confessional, Leshawna
I ain't gonna lie, it's tempting to vote off Heather. I'm not perfect so I worry that when we vote for Heather the heat goes onto Scott and me. Courtney and Duncan-don't you see these stupid shows?! Showmances always run these things!
"Hey Zoey, can I sit here?" Marilyn asked, walking up to Zoey in the Mess Hall. The pep in her step slowed to a screeching halt as she noticed Zoey prodding a piece of...whatever sadly. "Hey why are you so down?"
Confessional, Marilyn
With Cameron gone, Zoey needs someone new to latch onto. So why not make that someone me?
"Well Cameron went last time and I'm pretty sure I'm next," Zoey replied.
"Don't worry about it. Katie is working on Leshawna to vote out Heather. You'll be safe tonight," Marilyn comforted.
"But how can you be so sure. We know Leshawna voted out Cameron last time."
"Look it won't be you tonight. I hate to say this but it'll be Katie or Heather tonight. Especially after their little spat today."
"I mean I guess that's comforting. But we need to save Katie."
"Heather, Scott, and Duncan definitely will vote out Katie. Leshawna is who we're trying to flip…."
"You think Courtney could be reasonable?" Zoey asked.
"You know… I don't know. But she seems really close to Duncan and Scott. So I don't know."
"You should talk to her. See where her head is at for this vote."
"That's a good idea. Good talk Zoey."
Confessional, Zoey
Marilyn is definitely someone I want to stick with. Hopefully she can talk some sense into Courtney.
Confessional, Heather
Leshawna and I have been working pretty well together if I'm honest. But I need to make sure that she's still on board with eliminating Katie tonight. She has the power right now and hopefully she puts it to good use. And by good use I mean it benefits me.
"Leshawna. Can I talk to you for a moment?" Heather asked, walking up to the loudmouth.
"Sure. Got nothin' better to do," Leshawna replied, to the Queen Bee.
"Look. I know Katie and that group has come up and talked to you. You're the obvious swing vote tonight. I wanted to make sure we're still good with voting Katie."
"Of course we are."
"Alright. I can only assume that she wants me out."
"Oh yea girl. She wants you out BAD!"
"I can only imagine. But it'll be that little weasel's time to leave tonight."
"Right… right," Leshawna said, walking off as Heather seemed to be in a daze about most likely Katie walking the dock of shame.
Confessional, Leshawna
Katie and Heather both made good cases to boot the other. Obviously I've been working with Duncan and Heather and that group for a little while. Either way I go I'm likely at the bottom of each alliance. But long term who can I trust to do what I want, and what will put me in a perfect position.
"Hey Courtney can I talk to you for a moment?" Marilyn asked jogging over to Courtney who was taking a walk on a forest path.
"What's on your mind Marilyn?" Courtney responded.
"Well I was thinking that maybe you would consider voting Heather out over Katie tonight."
"I mean I'm always willing to consider my options."
"Look…" Marilyn began taking Courtney's response as the greenlight to plead her case. "Heather has been almost unbearable since day one. She's gotten into fights with just about everyone here."
"I can't disagree with that."
"And, Katie is a sweet girl. She's nice to everyone and tries in challenges unlike Heather,"
"I mean the logic here is. Do we keep the team strong, or just let Heather continuously hurt her game in a comedic fashion."
"Right. Look, the right thing to do is to get rid of Heather. Just like when we got rid of Chloe."
"Right… I'll definitely consider it."
Confessional, Courtney
So…. Marilyn talked to me like right before the vote. I don't know what she was on but she was like vote Heather, save Katie, do the right thing. I don't know who you think you are Marilyn but it's clear what you're trying to pull.
Confessional, Marilyn
I'd like to think that conversation went well. But I'm not stupid. Courtney isn't flipping. Just gotta hope Leshawna does.
Elimination Ceremony
"Well Killer Bass, it looks like you once again return to the Bonfire Ceremony. And this time instead of just losing you all argued your way to heck and back. As I've said before and I'll say it again, if you are voted out you must walk the Dock of Shame and take the Boat of Losers out of this game, I'll read the votes of who's safe."
"First safe is Duncan."
"Scott." Duncan and Scott high-fived as they collected their marshmallows.
"Courtney."
"Jackson."
"Marilyn."
"Leshawna."
"Zoey."
"Alas the bottom two. Heather you find yourself in a familiar spot. Once again you find yourself at the bottom. Will you once again escape certain elimination or is it it finally your time to go?" Chris mused, leading Heather to just smirk and lift her head up in defiance. "Katie you constantly fought with Heather tooth and nail today causing you guys to lose, a good reason to send you packing overall. With that being said the person going home in eighteenth place is….. Katie."
"Are you guys kidding me!" Jackson shouted, standing up and staring down upon his teammates. His hand defensively went to the plastic machete on his belt and the cast collectively leaned back. "Why did you guys eliminate her? She's one of the nicest people on this island and you kept Heather over her? What is wrong with you guys?"
"Jackson it's ok. I'm not cut out for this game anyways," Katie said, standing up to calm her friend down.
"B-but-but-"
"It's alright. Just win it for yourself and for us alright?"
"A-alright." Katie walked down to the dock. However not even a few moments later Jackson chased her down and grabbed her hand.
"Please don't forget about me when you go home."
"I won't, I promise. I'll make sure to reach out."
Jackson lifted his mask off revealing a pale face and rustled black hair and piercing green eyes. "OMG I thought you were cute with the mask on! I didn't think it was possible, but you got even cuter! Keep the mask off more often," Katie offered, as she smiled at the taller boy, Jackson only nodded in response.
"Now go win this. You have the tools to do it, and the friends to do it. Now go out and win it," Katie cheered, standing on her tippy toes to give a blushing Jackson a kiss on his cheek. Katie stepped onto the boat as Jackson waved goodbye.
The camera cut to the Gopher cabin, where several campers waited on the porch. As the Bass filed in, Ryan leaned over the side and asked a passing Courtney who went home. "Katie," Courtney said in a voice that was rather low. "Keep an eye out for Jackson please?"
"Why me?" Jackson asked, seemingly popping out of nowhere. "Like Katie said, it's a game. Goodnight."
He turned into the cabin and closed the door rather tightly.
Confessional, Courtney
Why did that go so much better than I thought it would?
Sammy stepped out of the girl's side of the Gopher cabin and bumped into Dave, seemingly lost in thought and curled up on the floor. "Dave? Are you okay?" the cheerleader prodded.
Dave let out a pained sigh and sat up. "I don't know," he said honestly.
"Well, can you help me get some apples out of my cheerleader outfit? Brick definitely threw a lot of apples at me today."
"I have just the thing, but I...dang it," he seemed to deflate.
"What's up?"
"I loaned it to Sky just before the cooking challenge, and just before she told me she…" he let out a sigh and sat down again. "Here, I can pick them out for you."
"Dave," Sammy said, sitting next to him on the railing. "What did Sky exactly say?"
"She said "I really like you and all, but I have a boyfriend back home' and then I just stormed…"
"Oh gosh," Sammy winced sympathetically. "Wait, you said you stormed off?"
"I mean, if you found out Brick had some army girl back home wouldn't you do the same?" Dave asked sincerely.
Sammy remained silent before she put a hand on Dave's shoulder. "I'd try to get the full story. It sounds like Sky had a lot of thoughts through her head. Do you know for sure that was the true story?"
"Sammy, I really, really, really, really," Dave trailed off at the last really. "Really doubt that was it. But I'm worried about what comes after but if there was any."
"I know," Sammy picked at the rest of the apples on her skirt. "But you worked up the courage to tell her what you feel once. You can work it up again."
Dave stood up and walked to the confessional, giving Sammy a thumbs up before he left.
Confessional, Dave
Sammy has a point. Anything worth doing once is worth at least doing twice. But…
No, no buts. I need to get everything straightened out.
"Well that sure was an entertaining episode of fights and arguments galore. How will Jackson handle Katie getting voted off? Will Heather ever be voted out? Will the Bass lose again or will the two losses at most trend be broken? And will any of these power alliances be broken up? Find out next time on the next episode of Total Drama Island.
Final Confessional, Katie
I've had so much fun and I can't wait to tell Sadie about this! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Heather may have sucked but otherwise I met a lot of great people. Jackson is a great person and friend and perhaps even more… But either way I'd love to see Jackson win. He's so strong and he gets better at socializing everyday. To be honest the only thing I'd change would be putting more effort into making sure Heather went rather than assuming people would vote her out. Sorry to everyone that went out over her. Well except Chloe. Anyways overall I say I did both well and had fun.
Votes
Duncan: Sorry not sorry but Katie it is time for you to go.
Scott: Despite us being somewhat far in we haven't really talked much. So Katie you need to go.
Courtney: Time to send Katie off the island
Jackson: Heather
Marilyn: Please for the love of literally anything please Heather
Katie: It's either me or Heather tonight I bet. So I vote Heather. Please Leshawna follow through.
Leshawna: Sorry y'all I gotta vote out Katie this time. I hate to screw y'all again but I gotta.
Heather: Katie is annoying, a nuisance, and a pain. Which for all of the above reasons is why I'm voting for her.
Zoey: Leshawna screwed me over last time. I hope she doesn't do it again. I gotta vote Heather
Reviews
LordGemini: Skave was never actually together, but given Dave will last more than one episode after the fight we'll see how that goes. Cameron was never the most visible but was always present and he did conquer his fear. Leshawna as a villain was something we experimented with and really liked to help her further her story more rather than her stereotype.
Nobody245: You may be surprised to see what happens after the fight given Dave stays longer than he did in PI. We'll see what Zoey gets up to as well. Leshawna and Heather was actually not an original duo, it sort of happened on the go and we all liked it. But we'll see if it lasts.
Gucci Mane Laflare: Dave won't be as bad, it's just a phase. And Cameron actually did a decent amount after the challenge with his paranoia and his reads. Kinda why his boot was obvious, it was just to show Cameron's ability for something later.
TheHiddenAuthor5000: Good luck on your story man, and have fun figuring out who out of that 5 is right.
