Total Drama The Original Island
Episode 3: Spice it Up
The episode starts as Brittany wakes up, staring directly at her, is Nikita, she is in a lime green nightgown, her curly hair is in a bun with a strand in front of her face. She has her hands on her hips as Matt and Nui watch from the other bunk beds on the other side of the room. Brittany tilts her head up to see Nikita.
"Ugh, what do you want?" Brittany yawns. Nikita does not look amused.
"You think that I'm stupid don't you?" Nikita yells as she gets close to Brittany's face. Matt and Nui reposition themselves to see the fight.
"What other stupid thing would be here then?" Brittany asks smartly. Nikita's light brown face becomes red. Nui and Matt look shocked in the background. Nui begins to get up hoping this confrontation won't become physical.
"Whatever," Nakita sighs, "But, don't act like I don't know that you stole my money from me. Plus I know what you did with it," Nakita says as she gets extremely close to Brittany's face. Brittany begins to stand up her light blue pajamas and perfect, short, blonde ponytail is revealed as her eyes open wide in fear. She remembers that if anyone found out her deal would be over, probably along with her run on the show.
"Oh yeah, then what's this?" Brittany says as she sassily walks over to the light brown table that contains makeup and a white mirror. Brittany pulls up a one hundred dollar bill as she smirks. Nikita is in disbelief.
"Then tell me Nakita what do you think this is?" Brittany smuggly says as she waves the money in Nikita and Nui's face.
Nikita gasps, "I- I-, your just doing this to make me look bad," Nikita says angrily.
Brittany smirks, "Well to us," She motions to Nui, herself, and Matt who rolled up to see the money, "It looks like you made yourself look bad," Brittany says.
Nikita stomps her foot on the floor, "That can't happen! I'm always right!" Nikita screams.
"Slow your boat Rebbeca, it happens to everyone," Matt says.
Nikita looks at Matt who is sitting innocently in her wheelchair.
"Talk to me when you can stand on your own, geek!" Nikita yells as she takes hold of the wheelchair.
"That is not necessary! Apologize to her now!" Nui says to Nikita who is trying to push Matt away.
Claire walks through the door, "Good mor-" Claire walks in on Nikita who has her hands on the handles of Matt's wheelchair, Nui's hand is pressed on Nakita's hand as Brittany is in between both Nikita and Nui trying to force them apart. We get a quick transition to Claire drinking coffee with Chris and Gareth.
"So then, get this I inserted the gas pump into the car. It was wild," Gareth says excited as Chris and Claire both slump in their chairs.
"I'm sorry Gareth but when I'm with you I can feel my soul leaving my body," Chris says bored. Claire chuckles as Gareth looks at Chris.
"It's fine I get that a lot," Gareth says plainly.
"I bet you do. I bet you do," Claire sighs as she takes the last sip of her espresso. She shakes the cup before a tiny drip spills out.
"Come on I'm gonna wake up the boys," Chris says as he points out the cafeteria window, "Claire you should get the challenge set up. I bet that the people will be wicked surprised by what we have planned," Chris tells Claire unaware that Gareth is there.
The camera goes to the dolphin boys dorm
Travis wakes up light, light is beaming through the window. He is shocked as the first thing he sees is Jackson's staring at him from the bunk on top.
"What the f***!" Travis gasps before he covers his mouth in shock.
Jackson menacingly grins, "Hope your mom isn't watching this," He says as he slithers back to his top bunk.
Thomas puts his round brown glasses on, "I'm tired of you already and this is the third day! I hope you get eliminated soon," Travis says before he faints into another vision.
The vision starts out in the dark, "Hello?" Travis says as he trips on something invisible. Travis looks up to find himself surrounded by clones of Jackson. The stand around him as they wear black robes.
Jackson loses his glasses as the Jacksons all take a step close. From behind him a Jackson a Jackson grabs Travis by the throat. He turns Travis' lifeless body towards him as he growls. He then is thrown into the cafeteria where he lands in a bed of spices.
"What the heck?" Travis blurts out as he begins to drown in the spices. He yelps out help but there's nobody to save him. As he drowns in the orange and red powder Travis is brought back to reality.
"Ahh!" he screams as AJ, Gareth, and Jackson look at him awkwardly. Gareth looks around as he puts his hand in his pocket.
"How long was I asleep?" Travis asks frantically.
"Like a few minutes, are you ok. You look so pale. Like you know how actors use to do b-" AJ is interrupted by Travis who shakes his head.
"I already know what your about to say," Travis says as he rubs his forehead.
Travis Confessional
"Ok so I have this, I don't know what to call it. I'll just say, condition. Anyways I have this condition that I can kind of see the future in my own dark twisted fantasy. It's something I've had ever since I was 3. I saw my father abandon me and my mother, like a week before it happened. It's very hard, It's a blessing and curse," Travis says as he rubs his shoulder in pain.
End Travis Confessional
Chris walks into the room. Travis is sitting on his bed, Gareth is standing on top of a pile of dirty laundry, Aj is sitting on a small plastic chair over by the window, and Jackson is leaning on the ladder of the bunks across from Travis.
"Come on amigos, we got a challenge to get through," Chris says casually. Aj worried gets up from his chair, Chris' eyes follow him.
"Challenge, come on! We haven't even eaten breakfast yet," Aj complains. However, his frustrated mood is turned to a scared one once Chris begins to grin. A cold chill goes over Travis, AJ, and Gareth's body.
"Don't worry about breakfast. You have a challenge to go to. Now follow me," Chris says as he blinks before leading the boys out of the dorm. They meet up with the girl dolphin members on the in between the two team dorms. Luna and AJ run up to hug each other as Travis and Milly turn away from each other awkwardly.
"Oh my goodness, you look so freaking cute!" Luna says as she hugs AJ.
"You look so freaking spicy!" Aj blurts as Chris smiles knowingly.
"I know, that's my job," Luna says as they pull each other apart.
"Don't worry the rest of you, you will be…. 'Spicy' for the rest of the day," Chris laughs as the campers look at him confused.
Chris walks out to the cafeteria and the campers follow him.
They gasp as they see the contraption taking place in the cafeteria. They watch as the Spider enters.
"No no no no no!" Nui says as she blocks the door from the other contestants. Her eyes bounce as she looks around at all the spicy foods around her. She shrieks as a small cockroach comes out of nowhere and tries to wiggle it's way out of the cafe.
Nui Confessional
Nui wheezes as she rocks back and forth in front of the ugly pink screen.
"I do not like spicy foods at all! It's been a goal of mine since I was like 6 then I tried to knock it out with that sandwich. I choked on it. I choked on the sandwich," Nui sighs as she shakes her head, "Let's just say that spicy foods are my downfall," Nui says afraid.
End Nui Confessional
"Ok so today, all of you will compete in a spicy competition. First all of you will have to slurp this soap made out of red hot chili peppers, ghost peppers, and the one and only, cinnamon hurl. One of the hottest spices on earth," Chris says as he scoops mayonnaise out of a jar, "To help cleanse your pallet and create a masking the spice from your taste buds," Chris passes out the mayo around to the contestants. Gareth begins to turn red.
Mimi whispers to Milly, "We are so going to lose," Milly chuckles before she gulps at the intense smell of the spices. The teens watch as a small portion of the soap spills out and begins to melt the wooden table.
"Can I pull out for medical reasons?" Brittany says as she pulls herself away from the line.
"Me too!" Luna says as her hand shoots up.
"Girls quit joking unless you want to join Mellisa in loserville," Claire jokes as she puts down both of the girl's hands.
"In that case before I die I have to say something!" Gareth spews out.
"Yeah what is it?" Chris asks sceptical, thinking he is obviously over reacting.
"Ultimately things like minimum wage and welfare are bandages for the hemorrhage of wealth experienced by the working class, the real problem is that most of the minimum wage jobs are already gone, exported to developing countries by the neo-colonial consumerist economy we're experiencing. The only way to tackle this would be to implement hard hitting policies that cut down on outsourcing, and target shareholders and their wealth, but this will never pass as long as there's so much financial interest in the political establishment," Gareth as plainley.
The contestants look at him astonished, Chris only yawns.
"Come on Gareth, you're boring us. Anyways, let's get onto the challenge," Chris yawns as the contestants still stand frozen looking at Gareth.
"The first team to drink the soup gets invincibility for now," Claire says as she drops off the bowls of soup to the contestants.
"3...2...1… go!" Chris announces as he counts down with his fingers.
Immediately Andrew DeWitt gulps down the entire bowl of the red hot soup.
"Wha- What? How did you?" Lance asks surprised.
"Because I'm a superhero, baby!" Andrew responds enthusiastically.
Andrew Confessional
"So when did you begin to watch anime?" The cameraman asks from the side.
"I began to watch anime when I was two, it gave me confidence and look at me now. I am the true shadow master!" Andrew says.
"Ok... also do you like anyone in particular?" The cameraman asks.
"Nope, I'm remaining myself. Unless someone else is interested!" Andrew says innocently.
End Andrew Confessional
The next person to finish is Jackson, he snarls at Travis who is halfway done with his bowl. He moves his mouth from the bowl.
"Will you please stop?" Travis asks annoyed.
Jackson holds his skull, "If you ever tell me to stop again I will separate your skull from your from the rest of your face," Jackson smiles, "Well… I guess you are used to separations," Jackson says sinisterly. On the other side of the cafeteria, Milly gasps.
"Oh shut up, Nancy Drew!" Jackson screams before Milly stares back down at her almost empty bowl. In the meantime, Lance, Vincent, Matt, and Mimi finished their soup.
The camera zooms to Brittany and Zachuray.
Brittany swirls around the soup as she realizes her human sacrifice is sitting there right next to her. Brittany slides the bowl over to Lucas who loos at Brittany. He looks extremely red and his motions tell that he's about to faint.
"Lucas, this for me. I don't have time to waste with my pretty face," Brittany says arrogantly before she pulls out a makeup mirror.
"Yes queen. Right away," Lucas says as he shoves his soup aside and devours Brittany's soup for her. She smirks as she watches him finish hers up. He slides the empty bowl to her, he has turned a light blue color.
"Thanks, now I if I were you, I'd get your done. Don't want to set back the team," Brittany smiles as she gets glares from Nui, Matt, and Lance.
"What? I'm just doing the game. Anyways Nui, you haven't finished yours so don't talk to me about it," Brittany says before she gloats about how brave she was to drink the soup first.
"You got my back right?" Nui says as she puts her hand on Lance's arm. He quickly slides it away as his face turns red. He begins to mumble something incoherently.
"I'll take that as a no," Nui says as she continues her drink.
Lance confessional
"Ok so… I'm pretty sure Nui likes me and I don't know what to say about it. I mean, I'm a freaking mess and she's so kind...sometimes. Why would she want to be with a guy like me. Whatever, although I must ask one thing. Was I blushing?" Lance asks the cameraman. The camera jerks around.
End Lance Confessional
The camera slides across the table; the only people left are Nui, Milly, and Gareth. Milly smells the spicy soup. She sips the last part of her red soap. She looks over at Travis who awkwardly gives her a thumbs up. She turns her head the other way. This only confirms the doubts in Travis' mind that his crush on her was over. She was too embarrassed to even look at him. How disappointing. Travis sighs.
Milly raises her eyebrow at Travis' reaction but then turns away. We get a final showdown with Nui and Gareth. Nui only has half of her soup to go, however Gareth is liking the soup out the bowl like a cat to milk. At the end of it all Nui is able to finish it first.
"Oh come on," Jackson says as he flips over his bowl, "This is terrible. I mean that guy can't even eat mayonnaise. How do you expect him to finish this hot ass soup?" Jackson says chillingly.
"Whatever, either way. I'm taking the bottom 2 people on each team and making them eat…" Chris pauses for suspense as the campers look at him awaiting his pick. From behind Claire's back she pulls out a plain looking sandwich on whole wheat bread.
"Today, Nui, Vincent, Milly, and Gareth will being taking their shot at the sandwich of death. This specially crafted sandwich has disgusting whole wheat bread along with spicy jalapeno chips, pulled sarchi peppers from brazil, the meat of a cow's head…. Also known as barbicola, lettuce, spicy banana peppers, tomatoes, and sriracha sauce. You know the one that's popular with hipsters?" Claire monologues as she passes out the sandwiches. Milly gulps as she puts her nose towards the food. She responded by a visual red snap.
"Come on people, eat in 3… 2…. 1… Now!" Chris counts down. Immediately Vincent takes a bite out of the sandwich.
Vincent Confessional
"Ok so I've been on a ton of reality shows but this one, this one got my weak spot. I mean I ate bugs that tasted more relaxing than this. I mean this is crazy. But, I do have to respect the man. He's livin the dream, baby!" Vincent says as he cautiously gets up from his chair, "So spicy," He says before he disappears.
End Vincent Confessional
Vincent takes another large bite of the sandwich. His eyes squint but he likes it. He finishes all of his sandwich.
"Sooooo freaking good," Vincent says as he belches.
"One down! Three to go!" Chris announces with a megaphone.
"We're all in the same room, can you lose that ridiculous thing?" Nikita says entitled. Chris lowers his megaphone and sets it down on a nearby table.
Gareth downs the sandwich. Her mouth begins to blow up in size but she still devours it.
"Man that was…. Surprisingly good," Nui says.
"Hey Dumbo, your lips are blowing up like a balloon," Brittany says arrogantly.
Nui feels her lips scarred before she lets it go.
The only ones left are Milly and Gareth.
Gareth takes a small bite meanwhile, Milly stares at Travis knowing that his desperation for her will end up costing her some potential interesting research.
"Hello? I'm sorry but can we do this today?" Luna says as she snaps Milly back to reality. She looks down at her sandwich and takes as large bite.
"Mmm," She says delighted. She looks at Gareth who is sitting on the other side of her.
Gareth raises his hand, "We both are from the same team, can't we just stop the challenge. There's no point to this anymore," Gareth says.
"Nope, I need it for something," Chris says cautiously.
As he says it Milly finishes her sandwich.
"Oh my goodness where was that in my life?" Milly asks. Claire chuckles and says thanks. She then goes to the back of the cafeteria to get out something.
"Now, stand up Gareth and Nui. Both of you have lost the challenge for your team, so you two will battle it out in a classic frat game with a spicy twist," Chris says as the camera shows the nervous two contestants
Claire comes around from the back of the cafeteria with two glass barrels filled with hot sauce.
"Thank you to our sponsors Chiluco Hot Sauce and Ukea. Need a project that you'lll eventually quit because you're not a arts and crafts kind of person. Ukea is the place for you," Chris says in an enthusiastic tone. He sets the heavy barrels in front of Nui and Gareth.
"Your job will be to chug this hot sauce down. Whoever finishes the barrel first will give their team immunity while the other is a guaranteed pick to go back home," Chris announces, "On your march get set…. Go!" Chris says as the other contestants cheer out the word Chug. Nui thinks to herself about how she wants to beat this fear of her's. It's her goal, it's her destiny. She begins to squeeze the black plastic lever to fill her face. She begins to south in pain but she doesn't care. She's so close to winning it for her team. She picks the barrel up, it's almost finished. She looks to the side to see Gareth struggling. Would she risk the challenge and be a target to lose or would she help out someone she hasn't really talked to. She can't decide until she see Lance on the sideline cheering her on. She deserves that money and this hot sauce is not going to stop her. She shakes the barrel and at once the remaining hot sauce pour down into her mouth. Chris and the campers watch in awe as she throws aside the barrel which breaks and puts her hands in the air with triumph.
"Nui wins it for the Spiders!" Claire announces, "Now can someone please clean up that glass, it might injure someone," Claire whispers quietly as Chris rushes off.
The spiders cheer as they all leave the cafeteria.
Mimi's Confessional
"That was incredible for the Spiders. Yes… I know I'm a dolphin but, it's still fair to congratulate them. But, I'm a positive person. No offence to the guy but, Jackson needs to be kinder sometimes and that's what I'll try my best to do!" Mimi says positively.
End Mimi Confessional
The Dolphin Boys are gathering together in the Dolphin boys dorm. Unseen listening outside a window is Lance. He was there to become a spy on the Dolphin boys. Although them teaming was a rumor, he didn't know if it was real or not.
"Ok, so I'm at a lost. I mean Gareth, you lost the challenge but your an alliance member. Who else do we have?" Jackson says chillingly, he is the leader.
"Milly, she can't be trusted," Travis says in a angry mood. Jackson sighs.
"Look loser, she can actually be a big piece of our puzzle. Let's take control of her and rob her of her information, hmm?" Jackson snickers sinisterly.
"I guess, what about Luna?" Travis asks.
Aj responds irritated, "Nah fam, We are not taking out a 10/10 cutie. Anyways what about that small girl… what's her name?" Aj asks.
"Oh Mimi? Oh sure, let's do it," Jackson smiles deviously. We get a cut to the elimination ceremony. The 7 remaining campers are sitting on their chairs behind a wooden table that faces Chris and Claire.
" After a budget increase-" Chris says before he's cut off by Claire.
"What budget increase," Claire asks before the two of them whisper. Claire nods and smiles as she whispers, "Ahhh the channel,"
"Anyways, instead of handing out paper we bought some…. Marshmallows!" Chris says as he reveals a clear bag of marshmallows from behind his back.
"Anyways… I'm not gonna waste my time here, two of y'all stuck out like a sore thumb in this challenge. But, I will not say names, for now Claire will be passing out the fluffy, sugar cubes. The first one goes to… Jackson," Chris says as Claire drops off Jackson a marshmallow.
"Joining him in the safe zone is Luna, AJ, and Travis," Chris announces as Claire runs from Luna and AJ to Travis.
"Also a marshmallow will go to Milly," Chris says.
Claire throws the marshmallow to Milly who drops it.
"The final marshmallow goes to….
Mimi, that means Gareth will go home today," Chris announces.
The camera turns to Gareth on the boat. He looks down.
"Dude, who went against the alliance?" Jackson asks angrily.
Travis turns away.
