"Last Time on Total Drama Island: The campers squared off to their conquer fears. It was a hard-fought challenge for them, many rose to the challenge, but in the end, it was Duncan who was eliminated. Tune in for what will be the most shocking twist yet, right here on Total Drama Island."
*** Intro ***
The campers gathered together in the lunch line, most of them looking disgusted at the slop Chef served them. "I may be mistaken," said Trent pointing down to his tray, "but hamburgers are not supposed to be liquidy or have green spots on them."
"It's called sloppy joe for a reason, music boy!" Chef barked back, pointing a butter knife inches away from his face, "GOT THAT!?"
"Yes, sir!" Trent replied, running back to his table.
"Couldn't they hire someone who knows how to cook?" Geoff whimpered to DJ, the two friends ducking quickly as Chef threw a rolling pin at them, hitting Ezekiel in the face.
"What did I say about talking about my food?" Chef glared, slamming the counter with his fist, leaving a hole. The two said nothing and quickly ran to their seats.
Most of the campers were eating their food, but Cody slowly picked at his plate and stared across the table where Gwen and Trent were eating. The two would occasionally glance at each other, and whenever their eyes met, they would blush and smile. Watching them, Cody would sigh sadly.
"Ten."
"Huh?" Cody looked up, startled out of his thoughts, glancing overseeing Noah.
"Ten, Cody. That is the number of times you've sighed since breakfast began." The bookworm grimaced, rolling his eyes as he glanced over at Trent and Gwen. "Oh, you still have a thing for Goth girl? Do you realize how creepy you look just staring at her all day? God, you act like the girls when Justin was here."
"If I can just get her alone for like five minutes, I can win her heart."
"Yeah," Noah rolled his eyes, "Girls love it when you're always in their face."
"She was giving me the once-over."
"Yeah she look once and it was over!"
"I can watch and learn," Cody smirked and stood up, but while walked over to Gwen, the tech boy lost his nerve and skittered back to Noah. The situation didn't go unnoticed by Heather.
"I bow to the master," Noah scoffed.
"Whatever, I know I can win her over with my charm," Cody puffed up his chest, as Owen sat beside him.
"Sorry Cody," Owen patted his back, "but Gwen is falling for Trent."
"I will win her heart."
"Want to put your money where your mouth is?" Owen smiled.
"Like what?"
"If you can get her bra, I'll do your dishes for the rest of the game."
"Put me down as 'Never going to happen," Noah chimed in.
Over at the Bass side, Katie was sitting by herself at the end of the table, looking down at her food sadly.
*** Confessional Katie ***
"Ever since Sadie was eliminated, I've been feeling pretty down. I promised her that I'd try my hardest. I will win this game for her."
*** Mess Hall ***
Katie continued to look sad while Eva rolled her eyes.
"Listen, guys," Eva whispered to the rest of her team. "If we lose again I say we vote off the other pathetic wonder twin down there. She's a wreck without Sadie to shadow; we'd be doing her a favour."
Many other Killer Bass members nodded their heads in agreement. Geoff, however, threw a concerned look Katie's way.
"I don't know guys. She just misses her friend. I know the feeling, I'm missing my bros back home."
"Fine, do whatever you want, but it doesn't change anything," Eva rolled her eyes again, while Geoff just shrugged and walked over to eat with Katie.
"So Katie, are you doing alright?" Geoff smiled as he sat down.
"Huh?" Katie looked up, "Hi Geoff, I'm doing a little better, but Sadie and I did everything together. We have never been apart for more than a few days. I hard being apart from her for so long." She sighs wiping away a tear from her eye. "I... I know how you all think Sadie and I are weird because we are so close and dress the same. Were not lovers, were not family, were just close very friends now. It's hard to explain. "
"No, not at all," Geoff replied sympathetically, "I remember when my best friend had to move to a different city. I was down in the dumps for weeks." The party animal smiled, "I have to keep going for him, just like you have to fight for Sadie. We can't let them down!"
"I won't," Katie flashed him a smile, as Geoff patted her shoulder.
"If you ever need to talk to someone, I'm here." Geoff offered, "This game is so much harder to get through without someone to talk to."
Katie sobbed once again as she thought about Sadie. "Thanks, Geoff."
*** Confessional Katie ***
"That was really sweet of Geoff; it's nice knowing I have some friends here."
*** Confessional Geoff ***
"Even if Eva convinces them to vote her off. I want Katie to at least enjoy her last few days here."
*** Beach ***
After breakfast, the campers were on the beach, waiting for Chris to explain the challenge to them.
"Psst... Gwen?" Trent whispered as he handed her over a muffin, Gwen smiled and took it. Ezekiel had noticed that Tyler also snuck Lindsay some muffins. He pulled one muffin from his pocket and nudged Bridgette.
"Bridgette? Are you hungry, eh?" He smiled and showed her the muffin.
"Not really." The prairie boy looked down, as Eva noticed and chuckled.
"Today's challenge is a true summer camp experience. A canoe trip. You all have to paddle across the lake to Boney Island," Chris said ominously, "Once you get there, you'll have to portage your canoe to the other side of the island; it's a two-hour long hike through the dense and treacherous jungle."
"Por-what?" Ezekiel and Geoff asked.
"You, carry your canoe over your head," Chris replied, "Now then when you arrive at the other side of the Island you will have to build a rescue bonfire judged by me. The first team to paddle back to the beach will be the winners. Oh, and one more thing I should mention: Legend has it that if you take anything off the Island, you'll be cursed forever!"
The contestants collectively gasped, all but Noah and Eva folded their arms.
"Yeah, a cursed island. Woo!" Owen pumped his fist into the air, which Izzy high fived excitedly.
"Sounds like it will be loads of fun.,." Noah sarcastically replied.
Chris smirked, "that's the spirit."
"Cursed Island?" Beth asked, returning from the washroom with a piece of toilet paper stuck to her foot.
"Cursed Island, don't take anything," Chris replied as the teen nodded, "Now, get your canoes and let's have some fun."
As the campers approached the beach, Trent glanced back at Gwen and gave her a smile. Gwen smiled back, and as Trent was about to suggest that they pair up, Cody interrupted, wrapping an arm around her.
"Come on, Gwen, you and me on open water."
While Gwen was rejecting Cody's offer, Lindsay and Beth each asked Trent to partner up. Trent, assuming Gwen had accepted Cody's offer, agreed, leaving a frustrated Gwen behind.
Turning back to the tech guy, Gwen sighed, "Fine, Cody, but I'm in charge."
*** Confessional Cody ***
"Yes, yes, yes!"
*** Confessional Gwen ***
"Cody is like an annoying little brother."
*** Confessional Noah ***
"Cody in a canoe with Gwen? Either he pulled off the impossible, or she drowns him."
*** Beach ***
Heather walked down with Owen, leaving Noah alone and unpartnered, frankly searching for someone to partner with, anyone other than …
"IZZY! Needs a canoe BUDDY!" The redhead shouted as she jumped onto Noah's shoulders. The poor bookworm wasn't ready for this, and as soon as she landed on his shoulders, he lost his balance and fell backwards. Both he and Izzy landed with a thud on the sandy beach.
"Together, Izzy and Noah will make it to the cursed island of spooky bones!" Izzy roared as she rose to her feet and stood on Noah's back, he groaned as he tried to cope with the pain.
Izzy glanced down and glared at Noah, "No time to laze around! We have the challenge to WIN!" She jumped off his back and threw him in the canoe, followed by the paddle, hitting him in the back of the head before running into the water herself and diving into the vessel. "WHOA!"
*** Confessional Noah ***
"Trapped in a canon in the middle of the water with her..." Begins to shiver at the thought, "If there is a God, he hates me."
*** Beach ***
As the Bass were teaming up, Tyler and DJ teamed up, and Ezekiel looked over to Bridgette who was putting on a life jacket. He gulped and slowly approached her. As usual, she had a smile on her face; that was the one thing he liked about her the most; she always had a smile on her face. Bridgette noticed the prairie boy smiling at her and stopped in her tracks. Ezekiel found himself blushing fervently as he tried to make the words come out his mouth.
He took a deep breath, "Hey, um... Bri-Bridgette," Ezekiel stuttered, "I was wo- wondering if y- you'd like to my canoe pa-partner?" He stammered through the whole thing, blushing the entire time, unfortunately, he spoke so quietly Bridgette didn't hear him.
"Hey, Bridgette," Geoff called out, approaching the surfer girl and prairie boy, "want to be partners?"
"...Sure..." Bridgette smiled.
Ezekiel was left unnerved and more uncomfortable to ask Bridgette with Geoff around, he dropped his head and stared at the ground. He felt someone tap his shoulder and saw Tyler giving a sympathetic smile and offered to partner up with him and DJ, leaving Eva to be paired with Katie, much to her displeasure.
*** Confessional DJ ***
"When I was eight, my brothers dared me to jump off the diving board. I wasn't going to let them call me chicken. I landed right on my butt, and I had to go to the hospital. I've been scared of water ever since."
*** Beach ***
DJ reluctantly looked at the canoe as he was putting on his water wings, "Are you sure this is safe?"
"Don't worry, it will be nothing but smooth sailing," Tyler smiled.
"Come on, DJ; everything will alright." Ezekiel said.
The campers prepared themselves and got to the starting line.
"Alright, campers on your mark... get set... Go!" Chris fired a starting gun into the air, and the campers were off. Meanwhile, a dead eagle fell out of the air, "That's going to provoke some angry emails."
As the campers paddled along to Boney Island, Eva couldn't be more annoyed to be partnered up with Katie, her continuous whining about Sadie was getting under her nerves; luckily she had her music to drown out her crying.
"So Bridgette, you like animals, right?"
"Um, yeah? Why do you ask?"
"No reason, I just think that's cool."
"Really?" Bridgette looked back and gave Geoff a smile. "Thanks, Geoff."
Geoff smiled back before she turned around to continued padding. Geoff looked over to Tyler, DJ the two gave him a thumbs-up, who returned the gesture.
While over at Ezekiel's boat glanced over in sadness, but smiled a little and was least happy that Bridgette was a partner with someone nice, Tyler wanted to think of something to get his friend from feeling blue.
"So, Zeke? Is this your first time canoeing?"
"No," Ezekiel replied, "I used to canoe and fish with my grandpa before he died, but the lake was much smaller than this, eh."
Looking back at Katie and Eva, the two couldn't start a conversation at all. Katie barely put in any effort in canoeing because she was weeping over Sadie, while Eva rolled her eyes.
Noah was forced to do all the paddling as Izzy told him farfetched stories, "Do you know Izzy is on the RCMP most wanted list? Oh, and Izzy is wanted in thirty States and banned from several European countries as well as Australia. Izzy also has six Nobel Prizes, an Olympic Gold medal, and a Ph.D." Izzy flashed them the degree which clearly showed that she'd scribbled out someone else's name and wrote her own in a black sharpie with the Z's backwards.
"You're really something," Noah stated, as he stared out towards the water, Owen and Heather's boat passed them, Heather was letting Owen do all the work while she sunbathed. Izzy looked over to Owen, Noah noticed this and frowned, "Oh no, I'm not gonna be doing all the paddling while your making ga-ga faces at chemical warfare."
Izzy just smiled and looked over at Cody's boat, "Your just jealous because Cody's like Goth girl."
Noah scowled and rolled his eyes, "are you going to let the...Incident go?"
"NEVER!"
*** Confessional Noah ***
"Sometimes I really wonder what goes through Izzy's mind. Then I get up and walk around until the feeling goes away."
*** Lake ***
"You really think this Island is cursed?" Beth asked as the camera turned to Beth's boat.
"No," Trent snuffed, as he looked at Gwen's boat. "Chris is just trying to scare us."
Meanwhile, Cody was striking out with Gwen, who declined all of his offers for a date. He persisted until she slapped him in the groin with her paddle. The Goth smiled and gave a wave as Trent passed by, which he returned with a smile.
Suddenly, the campers were surrounded by a thick fog; the teens looked up to see that the fog was coming from an ominous rock skull looming over their island destination.
"Ooooo neat skull," Izzy exclaimed as the campers docked on the bone covered beach.
"This is awesome!" Owen shouted, the only other camper, besides Izzy, who was excited to be there.
"Yeah, a creepy, spooky Island, with hundreds of things that could kill us. Awesome is definitely how I would describe it, Owen," Noah said sarcastically as he stepped forward, crushing bones beneath his feet.
"WELL LET'S GO, CANOE BUDDY!" Izzy shouted, picking up Noah and running towards the forest, screaming the entire way.
The campers, freaked out by the ominous nature of Boney Island, wasted no time in running through the forest. As they ran through the thick the forest, they began to hear roars from animals and tried to avoid the piles of animal bones and skulls.
"What was that?" Lindsay asked, creeped out.
"Relax, it's just Chris trying to scare us." Noah responded. "Nice try Chris, but you have to do better than that," he shouted as a pack of massive beavers with giant tusks, began to chase after the terrified campers. "Okay, that's better... RUN!"
The monster beavers continued to chase the campers all the way to a swamp, until Izzy dropped Noah into the swamp, then turned around and began chasing them back through the forest with a big grin on her face.
"Izzy come back!" Owen cried out, as Izzy continued to run through the forest chasing the beavers.

Meanwhile, the Killer Bass made it to a fork in the trail.
"We should go left," Tyler said.
"The right path is wider," Bridgette responded.
"I agree with Bridgette, eh," Ezekiel smiled, the Bass agreed and started down the right path just as the Screaming Gophers caught up to them, and took the left path. As the team walked along the path, Trent stepped into quicksand.
"Uh, oh, I'm shrinking! Trent yelled out.
"It's quicksand, genius," Noah replied.
*** Confessional Chris ***
"Hahaha! Did you see that? I set it up, but I didn't think anyone would actually walk into it." Chris wiped tears away from his face from laughing so hard.
*** Boney Island ***
Soon enough, Trent was waist-deep in the quicksand.
"I'll save you, Trent!"
"No, Lindsay, you'll just get..." Ignoring Trent's plea, Lindsay jumped into the quicksand and began to sink herself.
"Oh, now we're both stuck," Lindsay screamed.
"Someone do something," Beth panicked.
"Well," Noah replied, giving them a salute and waved, "It was nice knowing you." He was about to leave when Gwen grabbed his arm.
"Think of something brainiac!"
"Like what?"
Thinking quickly, Cody grabbed the nearest vine and attempted to swing over the quicksand and grab Trent's hand to pull him out. Instead, however, he missed the hand by an inch and crashed into a tree. Thankfully, the vine swung back over to Trent, who was able to grab it and use it to pull both him and Lindsay out of the quicksand.
"My hero," Lindsay exclaimed as she gave Cody a hug and kissing his cheek, which made the poor boy turn beat red.
"Thanks," Trent smiled as he patted Cody's back, "Where'd you learned to do that?"
"Ugh...well..." Cody stammered as Lindsay let him go, "I watch lots of movies."
Suddenly a loud cry could be heard from the forest, turning around to see the pack of beavers with Izzy riding on one their backs. She jumped off it and joined her team, who looked stunned.
"Bye!" Izzy waved goodbye to the beavers as they ran back into the forest.
"Okay, WHAT WAS THAT?" Noah asked.
"Oh, them, they're really softies," Izzy smiled, "Izzy beat them in battle, and they let Izzy join the tribe."
"WHAT!?" The entire Gopher exclaimed.
SECTION
The Bass were making good time as they jogged through their path; everything was looking good until Bridgette suddenly halted.
"Oh, God!"
"What's the hold-up!" Eva groaned.
Bridgette was looking into the forest, and soon they saw what she caused her to stop. A rabbit lay in the middle of the path, bleeding from its mouth with its leg bent awkwardly. "Poor thing!"
"Who gives a crap!" Eva barked, "We have the challenge to win!"
Ezekiel put a hand on Bridgette's shoulder and felt her shudder slightly. Looking over at the rabbit, he saw the rabbit twitch slightly and the smallest raise on its chest.
"It's alive, eh." He exclaimed.
Bridgette looked up at him, then at the rabbit incredulously, she then looked back at Ezekiel as he headed out towards the rabbit. The prairie boy knelt down near the rabbit, and saw that it was, in fact, alive; he reached out very gently and picked up the rabbit. The creature's fur was covered with blood and dirt; he looked down at it as he looked back to the others.
"Oh, my God!" Bridgette had said repeatedly, as Ezekiel carefully handed the rabbit to her, she stroked its head gently. "Everything will be okay little bunny," she whimpered.
"What do we do!?" Katie whispered, looking at the rabbit with sadness as Geoff placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Maybe, Chef will know what to do?" Tyler suggested.
"In case you all forgot, we have the challenge to win!" Eva said gruffly.
The team rallied, Bridgette holding the rabbit to her, and the Killer Bass rushed to the beach. The Gophers arrived from their path at the same time, and both teams set up camp and set about building their campfires; as they struggled to light the fires, Chris was flying overhead in a helicopter, ready to judge the winner.
"This should work," Izzy smiled, "It's a homemade firestarter Izzy made; it contains tree sap from rare breeds of sage. Izzy learned to make it from Inuit tribes in Nunvaut while on the run from the RCMP. Stand back; this is going to be big!"
Everyone, including the Killer Bass, saw that Izzy had a crazy look in her eyes. They took her advice and backed way up. She threw the fire starter into the weak flames and it almost like a nuclear bomb has gone. The explosion sent everyone flying backwards. Izzy was sent into the water, Cody was laying onto of Gwen in an awkward position which he continuously kept apologizing to her for; Ezekiel and Bridgette were also in awkward position, the same for DJ, landing face-first between Eva's chest, the gentle giant didn't even get a chance to apologies as athlete gave him a black eye. Noah was seriously burnt; Tyler and Geoff were stuck headfirst into the sand struggling to get out.
"Gophers take it," Chris announced through a megaphone," Now all that's left is the canoe trip back, the team that can dock their boats to the beach first will be the winner so hop to it!"
The contestants jumped to their feet and began to make their way back to their canoes leaving Izzy's fire unattended, and it quickly began to spread through the dense forest as while the campers raced to paddle back to the Island. The teams were able to keep pace with each other making for a close race.
"Paddle you wimps!" Eva screamed, enraged that the Gophers were keeping pace with them.
"Come on!" Trent tried to encourage his teammate as the beach of the camp was in sight.
"And the winner is..." Chris watched as both teams all crashed into the beach at the same time. After replaying the race, it appeared that the Bass crossed the line first.
"The Killer Bass!" Chris smiled, the groans of the Gophers were cut off as a sudden massive wall of fire could be across the lake coming to Boney Island.
"Ooo, pretty lights," Izzy smiled as the flames of fire from Boney Island reflected in her eyes, the rest of the campers starred in shock as the flames grew violent and beginning spreading across the entire Island, as Bridgette took off towards the mess hall to get Chef to help the rabbit, followed by Ezekiel, and Owen, carrying an injured Noah.
*** Mess Hall ***
"Seriously!" Noah bellowed, whining from the pain of his seriously burnt body, "I need some help! And all I get is rubbing clean?"
"That's right pipsqueak! NEXT" Chef barked, as Noah mumbled under his breath while Bridgette came up behind him.
"Oh, sweet rabbit stew!" Chef smiled, looking down at the rabbit in Bridgette's arms, "Nice."
"WHAT?! NO!" Bridgette glared at him, "We found this rabbit on Boney Island. Please help him!"
Chef looked down at the campers and shook his head, mumbled something about them being dumb kids. He led them to the kitchen, clearly off the table, where Bridgette gently placed the rabbit.
"Is he going to be okay?" Bridgette whimpered, and she gripped Ezekiel hand tightly, as they sat inside the mess hall and glanced over to the kitchen very occasional.
"I hope eh," Ezekiel said softly.
"I'd like to stay until I know if he's going to make it or not," Bridgette said, her voice trembling. "You can go back with the others if you want."
"I don't mind staying with you, eh." Ezekiel said softly, making Bridgette smile a little.
Bridgette nodded, and sighed, "You probably think I'm some silly little girl. Worried about a rabbit."
"No, not all, eh," Ezekiel replied, "Kind reminds about this. I found an injured bird in the backyard, and I nursed it back to health."
They sat at the mess hall waiting for several hours, talking, well more so Bridgette talked, while Ezekiel listened. She talked about pets she had, and about her home life, family and other small things, but mostly they just sat in silence. Bridgette was surprised that Ezekiel was listening to her every word; most of the guys at her school didn't usually pay attention to her when she spoke.
"And so my mother is pretty much my best friend. I lost my father when I was very young."
"Oh, that's terrible," he said sadly; he was trying desperately to remember not to do anything gross that would ruin the conversation. "I lost my grandfather when was I young."
"So, how about you?" She asked, "What's life working on a farm like?"
Ezekiel stared at her in disbelief, "You...you want to know about me?"
"Yes,"
He looked around. "Why?"
"Well, I don't really know much about you, and I'd like to."
"Well, it's a lot of work, tending the fields, milking the cows, feeding the animals... it's sometimes difficult, but I like it too, eh. I occasionally go riding with one of our hoses. Do you like animals?"
"Yes I do," Bridgette smiled, "I work and care for injured animals, there aren't words to describe how amazing it is just to see the joy on the animal face when it realizes it can go wherever it wants, but its also a lot of hard work and its sad because I see a lot of death."
"I know how that feels, eh. I work with animals, and seeing them sick and old is sad." Ezekiel chatted on about his escapades on the farm, which included birthing animals, and churning cow and goat's milk into cheese and butter.
*** Confessional Bridgette ***
"Ezekiel and Geoff surprised me. Guys at my school always made fun of me and my love of animals."
*** Mess Hall ***
"So I guess that's something we both like eh," He chuckled nervously, as Bridgette smiled.
"I guess so, "She smiled, "Anything else?"
"As you know I'm homeschooled," he said, still shrugging a little. He wanted to make his life sound interesting to Bridgette. He sighed, mentally as he realized his life was quite boring. "My family owns a big farm, which is a lot of work, which is why I'm homeschooled; my parents need help during the day with chores. In my free time, I like riding my horse and playing with my dog. I like to study languages too; I know eight different languages. Ten if you count English and sign language."
"Wait...You know eight different languages?" Bridgette said, clasping her hands together. Ezekiel processed to speak several sentences perfectly in French, then Italian and Spanish.
"Could you teach me Italian? I've always wanted to learn."
He spent the next hour and a half teaching her how to speak, and Bridgette was a quick learner. The surfer girl smiled and giggled at how Ezekiel spoke different languages with his thick Canadian accent. The two continued talking about their lives and the more they talked, the more comfortable they both felt.
Soon Chef stepped out, carrying the rabbit out, who was know peacefully sleeping and in good health." Cry babies; your pet is okay."
Bridgette gasped and held the rabbit to her body, and the two teens left the mess hall, returning to the cabins.
"You were very brave today." She whispered to him.
"I won't say that..." Ezekial rubbed to back of his head.
"Shhh, just take a compliment," She flashed him a smile. When they arrived at the steps of the cabin, she gave him a hug. The prairie boy was completely caught off guard not daring to move as he was completely wrapped in Bridgette's arms, unsure what to do. It was the first time he had been hugged by someone other than his parents. And by a girl, not less. There was definitely something different about being hug by someone who wasn't your parents — the strength of the embrace. More importantly, how warm and soft she felt.
"Good Night or I should mean, Buona Notte." Bridgette smiled after what felt like an eternity of silence between them, and she entered the cabin.
"Bridgette? Oh, he's so cute!" Katie ran over to look at the bunny, while Eva lifted weights.
"I know," Bridgette smiled and patted the bunny.
*** Screaming Gophers Cabin ***
Beth and Lindsay were making their way back to their cabin as Heather approached them, "Hi you two! How are you this evening?"
"Can we help you?" Beth asked.
"Yes," Heather smiled, "It about tonight, vote." she and showed them a picture of a camper with a red x on it.
*** Elimination Ceremony ***
The Gophers were gathered at the bonfire ceremony, waiting for their fates to be determined.
"Alright, if I call your name, please come up and collected a marshmallow," Chris smiled, "The first person safe is Noah."
Chris flung the marshmallow at the seriously burnt teen face, causing him to hiss in pain, making the host smile.
"Also safe is Cody, Beth, Gwen Lindsay, Heather and Owen." The campers cheered with high fives, leaving Trent and Izzy left without one.
Trent began to tug slightly at his hair.
Izzy covered her mouth in suspense.
"The final marshmallow goes to."
.
.
.
.
.
.
"Izzy!"
The redhead couldn't help but sigh in relief as she picked up her marshmallow. Behind her, Trent slumped in his seat.
"No!" Gwen shouted, "You cannot be serious?"
"What did I do?" Trent asked dumbfounded.
"Sorry thems the brakes," Chris smiled.
The singer walked down the dock of shame. He gave Gwen a hug and wished her good luck, before making his way to the boat, where Chef took him away.
Gwen just stood on the edge of the docks and watched her friend disappear into the night. She then snarled, turning back to the bonfire and glared at Heather.
"You were involved in this, weren't you?!" She shouted at the Queen Bee, "You had Trent voted off!"
"Don't look at me, Goth Girl!" Heather replied, crossing her arms. "I was going to voted for little miss forest fire over there." She tilted her head to Izzy, who was talking with Owen. "But...I heard Romeo over talking about getting Trent out of the picture." She pointed over to Cody.
"Huh?" Was all Cody could mutter.
"WHAT!?"
Gwen's shout, a mix of horror and fury, startling everyone; Cody, horrified, watched his dream girl turn towards him, heaving in a fury. "You...you...you...did this?" she hissed, stomping over to him.
"What?... Wait," Cody stammered, terrified as Gwen approached him with that hurt, furious face.
"You voted Trent off to get closer to ME!"
"Wh...no..that...not..."
"YOU LITTLE SICK PERVERTED CREEP!" She slapped Cody across the face, very hard. He reeled from the blow, a red imprint left on his cheek. He was on his knees, taking in deep, shuddering breaths. His thin body was shaking; he looked down at the ground as Gwen stormed off.
"Cody?" Beth called out to him softly. "Cody?! Are you alright?" She put her hand on her shoulder.
"Just..." he managed to sputter out, tears spilled from his eyes; he tried to cover them with his hand, "Just...leave me...alone...please..."
Someone chuckled beside her, and that someone was Heather. "You shouldn't have faith in Cody, Beth. You should realize guys like Cody only want one thing, and looks like he's blown it."
Beth starred at Heather with shock, "Why did you do this?"
"It's the only strategy," Heather replied, smirking at Cody. "This way, our team will have someone to vote off next time."
"It ... doesn't seem right." Beth didn't look at Heather, looking back at Cody.
"Don't feel bad about him, Beth. He just a little perv..." Heather glared at Beth, "Unless you want to be voted off, I suggest you stay quiet." Heather returned back to her cabin, caught up with Gwen and offer some 'sympathy,' while Beth looked back at Cody, before sighing and made her way back to the cabins.

Writers Notes: The Eight language is true about Ezekiel. It would have been interesting to see him actually do this in the show like World Tour would have been nice.
