*Instead of Chris doing the recap, the camera rests on very visibly grumping Chef his arms fold as he stood on the dock.*
"Yeah! I'm doing the recap; you have a problem with that!" Points a knife to the camera, the cameraman nervously shakes no. "Good! So last time on Total Drama Island … the MAGGOTS were tested with trust competitions to prove if they could cooperate together. Some passed with flying colours, while others showed that they probably shouldn't be trusted. In the end, DJ went home but not before getting a kiss. How much pain will I put them through this week? Sit your damn butt down to find out!"
*** Intro ***
The camera opens to the campgrounds; everyone was enjoying their time, believing it was going to be a challenge-free day. Bridgette was teaching Ezekiel how to surf, and the prairie boy nearly fell into the water as she smiled at him. Cody and Noah were against the tree enjoying some shade; the latter was reading, while the former was covertly glance at Lindsay. Katie, Geoff and Tyler were enjoying a good swim, and Heather was plotting something with Lindsay and Izzy. Gwen was sunbathing, and Eva was working out.
"So you think Palpatine is really going to come back in episode 9? Or is this going to some think of dark force ghost?" Cody smiled.
"Don't care." Noah said, as he turned a page of his book.
"Think Rey and Ben will kiss?" Cody smiled.
"They're going to be related."
"Do you heard about Spiderman is back with the MCU!"
"Can you nerd stop with the nerd talk!" Heather snapped
On the docks Lindsay was sitting, swatting a flies with her flyswatter in her continuing quest to nail the fly, had absentminded swatted Heather in the face.
Tyler's eyes widened as he turned to dorks; Heather had taken the flyswatter from Lindsay's hand and gave her a few small slaps on the face.
"That was great, Ezekiel." Bridgette smiled when the prairie boy surfaced from a wipeout.
"I thought I was going to drown, eh." Ezekiel coughed up water.
"You almost had that wave!" She smiled, and the two continued to surf until Ezekiel caught one. He looked delighted and pumped his fist in the air but quickly tripped off his board, turning red with embarrassment. "Your first wave." She clapped.
"Th...This...is...really...fun." Ezekiel said, "I think I can get into surfing."
"Hey, dude has the surfering," Geoff called out.
"Not good, eh," Ezekiel replied, looking down in embarrassment.
"Hey, you're getting better, Ezekiel." Bridgette smiled, and patted his back, making him blush.
"I have a good teacher, eh." Ezekiel smiled towards Bridgette, making her blush.
"I'm not great," Bridgette replied, embarrassed by the comment.
"Don't say that you helped us win the talent show with your surfing," Ezekiel replied. He couldn't help but feel a little woozy in his stomach every time she smiled at him as the seawater sprayed his face.
"You as well," Bridgette smiled and replied to him in both Italian and Japanese.
"Totally you have some sick skills on that board," Tyler added, "Hey, mind if I try?"
"Sure," Bridgette said, Tyler ran to the beach shack and returned with a surfboard.
"Surfs up dudes" Tyler jumped from the docks only to slip backwards and land in the water.
After a fun day of rest, the campers fell asleep in their beds, but at 2 AM, Chef, wearing his army outfit, stood outside the cabins and blew an air horn, ejecting the teens from their beds. The campers staggered out of their cabins, rubbing the sleep out of their eyes, groaning and complaining.
"Chris, you're dead!" Eva exclaim from the cabin.
They all glared at Chef.
"Where's Chris?" Cody asked.
"ALL RIGHT MAGGOTS," Chef screamed, "I'M IN CHARGE AND IT TIME TO TURN THINGS UP A NOTCH! NO MORE P#### ASS CHALLENGES! YOU'LL ALL START WITH A WARM-UP: TWO LAPS AROUND THE ISLAND! NOW GET RUNNING! WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED, GO TO THE DOCKS"
The campers were about to take off before Chef stopped them. "WAIT! ONE MORE THING MAGGOTS, YOU HAVE TO CARRY THESE!" Chef tossed a sixty-pound backpack at Noah, causing the teen to fall from the weight. Chef then threw backpacks at the remaining campers. Everyone, except Geoff and Eva, struggled with the weight and were hunched over.
"ALRIGHT SOLDIERS, MOVE!" Chef yelled and began to run as the campers followed, cursing Chef under their breath. Noah, Cody and Lindsay were at the back of line struggling even to move, Eva was able to keep pace with Chef.
"ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR. ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!" Chef chanted, a montage of the campers running showed on the screen.
Let's get down to business you damn Maggots!"
Did they send me babies when I asked for soldiers?
Eva was leading the pack, with Izzy somehow managing to keep up by swinging from the tree branches. Geoff and Bridgette were not far behind.
"You're the most pathetic bunch of maggots I've ever met!"
Tyler was tripping over his feet, Cody and Noah were crawling on the ground, crushed by the weight of their backpacks.
But you can bet before we're through
Maggots, I'll make soldiers out of you
Lindsay was struggling the most because Heather was making her carry her backpack as well.
Tranquil as a forest
But on fire within
Once you find your center
You are sure to win
Ezekiel and Gwen were in the middle of the pack, both were sweating heavily, and their breathing was short and hard.
You're a spineless, pale pathetic lot
And you haven't got a clue
Somehow I'll make soldiers out of you
Noah and Cody threw up, Tyler tripped, landing on the snake, Katie collapsed out of breathing.
Lindsay: I'm never gonna catch my breath
Lindsay is seen far being everyone else, while Heather glares at her ordering her to faster
Cody: Dear God; this is worse then death.
Noah: Boy, was I fool in school for cutting gym
Noah and Cody were face down lying in a puddle of water.
Geoff: This girl got me scared to death
Geoff sees Izzy grinning evilly as she continued to swing.
Eva: Stop singing before we get sued!"
It was by midafternoon by the time everyone finished, Eva crossing the line before everyone else while Izzy and Geoff weren't not far behind. Bridgette was hot on their heels. Gwen managed to beat Ezekiel and Tyler by a second, followed by Noah and Cody. Lindsay was the last to cross while piggybacking Heather.
"Is it over?" Gwen asked, wiping away sweat from her forehead, as Cody and Noah threw up again.
*** Docks ***
The campers stood lined up on the dock, exhausted and sweaty while Chef continued to bark at them.
"LINE UP AND STAND UP STRAIGHT! YOU CALL THIS PROPER FORMATION? FEET TOGETHER! ARMS DOWN! EYES FORWARD! CHIN UP!" As Chef gave these orders, he smacked anyone who wasn't standing properly with a paddle. Ezekiel was having the hardest time standing correctly and received multiple hits from Chef.
"Ow, that hurts." The prairie boy rubbed his back, only to get struck again.
"This is going to be fun," Noah whispered under his breath to Gwen who nodded.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Chef roared and struck Noah on the back with his paddle.
"AHH! That's hurts!" Chef glared down at the bookworm. "I mean, nothing at all sir," Noah replied attempting to put on a harsh soldier voice.
"AND YOU'LL SAY NOTHING UNTIL I GIVE YOU A REASON TO SPEAK. OTHERWISE, I'LL PULL YOUR GOD#### TONGUE OUT THROUGH YOUR GOD#### NECK!" Chef eyeballed the contestants, who all, but Eva, looked at him nervously. "TODAY'S CHALLENGE IS MY BOOT CAMP! CHRIS' STUPID LAWYERS SAID IT WOULD BE TO HARSH! BUT THAT'S TOO BAD FOR YOU! AFTER TODAY, YOU'RE GOING TO WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN!" A few campers gulped. "LAST ONE STANDING WINS IMMUNITY FOR THEIR TEAM!"
"Um, where's Chris?" Heather asked, receiving a strike from Chef. Cody, Noah and Gwen, chuckled and received a smack shortly after.
"NOW!" Chef barked, "THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS ARE GOING TO BE THE HARDEST, CRUELEST, MEANEST DAYS YOU HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED IN YOUR ENTIRE LIVES! WHEN I SAY JUMP, YOU BETTER ASK HOW HIGH! IS THAT CLEAR?!"
The campers nodded their heads in agreement, too scared to say otherwise. Of course, being Chef, this kind of answer would not suffice. He went down the line of the campers and struck each of them on the back, "I SAID IS THAT CLEAR!?"
"YES DRILL SERGEANT CHEF!" All the campers replied, with Ezekiel throwing in an EH! on end.
"NOW WHEN YOU'VE HAD ENOUGH, REPORT TO THE DOCK OF SHAME AND RING THE BELL OF DISHONOR AND REPORT TO THE CABIN OF FAILURES! EVERYONE TO THE BEACH NOW!"
*** Confessional Gwen ***
"Okay whoever sick twisted person put in charge of today's challenge. Seriously F#########K YOUUUUUU!"
*** Confessional Bridgette ***
"Okay, Chris is one thing. But having to deal with his short-tempered sidekick is too much."
*** Confession Eva ***
"Now, this is a challenge I can get behind." She grinned, pumped her arms up.
*** Confessional Noah ***
"Maybe doing this show wasn't such a good idea."
*** Confessional Chef ***
"None of these kids would have survived the first week in Nam. Well maybe Eva or Izzy, but knowing Crazy Girl, she'd probably chew on a grenade. "
*** Beach ***
All of the campers were finally assembled down at the beach where they stood behind two large canoes placed on the beach, "LISTEN UP!." Chef said, "EACH TEAM MUST HOLD THE CANOES OVER THEIR HEADS. I CATCH ANYONE TAKING THEIR'S HANDS OFF THE CANOE, AND YOU WILL BE ELIMINATED! ALSO, THIS CHALLENGE DOESN'T END UNTIL ONE OF YOU GIVES UP." Chef chuckled, "BUT I STRONGLY NOT QUITTING...it could be your last mistake...CANOES UP NOW!"
On Chef's command, the two teams hoisted up their canoe.
"This isn't so hard," Tyler said confidently as he held up his part of the canoe high and proud.
"Yeah, this is, easy, eh," Ezekiel added.
Hours passed, and the scorching heat combined with the strain on their arms was beginning to take its toll on the campers, except Eva, who somehow didn't break a sweat. Coupled with the fact that they were denied breakfast and lunch, they were dead tired and starving.
At the front of the canoes, Lindsay and Tyler would glance over at one another. Though Tyler couldn't give her a wave or blow her a kiss, he was able to smile at her. For her, the jock's smiles were more than enough to suffice, and she returned the smile. Geoff and Katie were chatting amongst themselves, Izzy was bothering Gwen about her travels escaping the RCMP.
"Come on sissies," Chef barked out, "You don't eat until someone gives up,"
The camera zoomed out to reveal that Chef and various crew members were lying on the beach eating while the campers stomaches continued to growl. Chef threw a half eaten chicken wing in front of them.
"Don't any of you even think about ringing the bell!" Eva glared back at her team, "or I'll ring your motherf###ing bell!"
"Good one," Noah scoffed and rolled his eyes.
"How are you doing over there, eh?" Ezekiel mouthed to Bridgette silently.
"The heat is killing me," she mouthed back, "you?"
"Arms are feeling like rubber," he replied, "but at least I get to stand next to you."
"I was thinking the same thing," Bridgette smiled. "Makes this lame challenge worthwhile."
Ezekiel blushed.
On the Gopher's side, Noah and Cody were placed behind Heather; she was seductively swinging her hips back and forth.
Heather smiled and looked back at them, "Seeing something you like boys?"
"I, uh," Cody's face was a bright red as he struggled to speak.
"I don't see the appeal, honey," Noah shrugged.
"WHAT!? I'm the hottest girl on the island!" Heather glared
"Oh, please don't flatter yourself, sweetie, you're about a six tops. "Gwen accidentally chuckled at Noah's reply.
"Yeah, I do the rejecting here not you!"
"SHUT UP MAGGOTS!" Chef barked, "This is BOOT CAMP! NOT A DATING SHOW!"
The hours passed slowly as the sun got hotter and their arms growing wearier and their stomachs groaning. Day turned to night, but none of the campers had dropped out yet. Eva was now showing signs of getting tired, but she fared far better than the rest of the team.
"Twenty-five of us went to the jungle that night. Only five came back out!" Chef was now sitting in a chair, retelling a war story.
"What war were you in?" Cody yawned.
"Did I say you could speak?" Chef shouted.
"G...Guys, I don't think I can take anymore," an exhausted Lindsay, spluttered, letting go of the canoe.
"Lindsay! Get back here!" Heather hissed out.
Exhausted, Lindsay kept walking, slowly making her way over to the bell and weakly rang it. The Gophers sighed and dropped their canoe, while the Bass cheered and tossed their canoe down as well.
"Listen here," Chef said softly as he crouched down and patted Lindsay on the back. "You have nothing to be ashamed of."
"Th...Thank you...Mr. Chef sir," Lindsay panted, "That's..."
"EXCEPT FOR BEING A BIG BABY THAT LET HER TEAM DOWN!" Chef suddenly hollered right in her face. "AS FOR THE REST OF YOU REPORT TO THE DINING HALL! IT'S DINNER TIME!"
The starving campers cheered, and all took off to finally have their dinner.
*** Mess Hall ***
The teens gathered in the mess hall, where Chef stood by garbage cans.
"So, where's the food?" Katie said.
"You're looking at it," Chef chuckled as he mentioned to the trash cans. Cody opened a can and looked inside.
"This is the discarded leftovers from yesterday."
"That's all you get," Chef replied,
"You don't honestly expect us to eat any of that...garbage do you?" Heather demanded, stomping her foot on the ground.
"IN WAR YOU TAKE WHAT YOU CAN GET," Chef replied as he grabbed a banana peel from one of the cans and swallowed in whole, nearly causing all of the campers to come close to hurling as they watched him lick off rotten contents of the banana peel off his face.
"You have ten minutes to eat before night training begins!"
The campers all winced and reluctantly began to dig through the garbage, looking for anything edible. Heather picked up a dirty banana peel and quickly dropped it.
"Yeah, this isn't happening. I'd rather starve."
"Whatever drama queen," Noah folded his arms, "If I can handle Chef cooking, then I handle this." He pulled out what was left of a roast beef sandwich, he took a bite out of the sub, and not two seconds after he swallowed, a rat poked its head out from where he had just bitten. A look of pure terror and disgust spread across his face, screaming like a girl he dropped the sandwich and raced to the doors as fast as he could.
"Come on, it's not that bad," Izzy replied taking a bite of some soft of slimy green material covered in maggots, eating it without any problem, unlike the other campers Izzy was eating the bugs on her food.
Cody shrugged and tried to do the same, but as soon as he swallowed, he covered his mouth and ran off, trying not to barf.
"This is all kinds of messed up," Gwen commented, as she gave up on searching.
"There has to be something," Geoff replied as he dug deep into the can. He brought his arm up and saw that he was holding some unidentifiable blob, that jumped off his hand and scurried across the floor.
"I think something alive in there," Tyler said as he was rooting through the bin, "OW! Something bit me!"
Meanwhile, Ezekiel brought two trays of half-eaten candy cars, juice box and pieces of fruit over to Bridgette and sat down next to her.
"Hey, I found these in the garbage and washed them," Ezekiel said as he over her a tray, to which she happily accepted.
"Thanks."
"So, this challenge is pretty hard, eh," Ezekiel said exhausted.
"No kidding," Bridgette replied as she looked around the room and saw Eva dig deep into the garbage bins, and ate something that looked like it was leftover from the cooking challenge. "I guess it's good we have Eva on our team. She's pretty much a one-woman army."
"Yeh," Ezekiel added, "But you're tough too, eh."
"Thanks," Bridgette smiled as Katie and Geoff sat by them.
"Hi, guys," Katie said, rather tired as she took a seat next to them.
"Oh," Ezekiel said, not noticing the pair, "Found anything good?"
"I found a sandwich," Geoff replied, showing a half-eaten sandwich.
"I found a turkey leg," Katie added.
"That's nice," said Bridgette.
*** Camp Grounds ***
For the next challenge, the campers found themselves having to dance in unison with Chef, an easy feat at first but soon became quite tiring as the activity continued.
"When... does it... end?" Noah huffed out as he struggled to keep it up.
"This is torture," Cody complained.
"When one of you gives up," Chef replied as he continued dancing, as Noah looked at the bell.
"Don't you even think it about it, bookworm," glared Heather.
"My body's killing me," Noah grunted in pain and held his chest, "I think I'm about to have a heart attack."
"Don't bail on us, Noah!" Izzy replied.
"Come on, Noah push through it," Gwen supported.
"I...I...Ca..." Noah began to sweat, and it became harder and harder to keep up with Chef; he looked at the bell and his teammates who glared and pled with him. "I'm sor..." Just then, the bell rang. The Gophers turned to see that Katie rang it, looking down in shame.
"Katie!?" Eva glared, "quitting during a dance challenge!"
"Give her a break," Geoff replied as he turned to wave at Katie. "You did great," He smiled.
"Thanks," Katie smiled back, as everyone on her team but Eva showed her they had no hard feelings.
"Wait... So, it's over?" Noah hoped.
"Yep," Chef said, "Everyone take a twenty-minute break before the next challenge." Noah, Cody and Ezekiel immediately collapsed on the ground.
*** Mess Hall ***
The remaining contestants were sitting at their tables while Chef explained the next part of the challenge.
"For your next challenge, you will write a 300-word essay describing how much you love me."
"Finally something easy," Noah said with a sigh of relief, as a few campers nodded in agreement.
"But we don't like you," a confused Ezekiel replied. Chef glared at the prairie boy and hit him.
Time passed, as the campers delved into their essays. Noah completed it before everyone else, Eva glared, her eye twitching as she violently scribbled. Ezekiel struggled with the essay at first but then decided to write his essay as if it was about Bridgette, just replacing her name with Chef. For the others, it was pure torture having to come up with stuff to say about a man they despised.
"Time's up!" Chef walked around and collected the papers, "To Chef with long golden hair and beautiful sparklingly eyes and heart as big as the ocean, with a smile that can light up the night?" Chef grunted as he read the paper and tore it up. Ezekiel tried to hide his embarrassment by covering his face with his hat. Chef stalked around the room, seeing that Cody had fallen asleep he banged his fist on the table in front of him, causing Cody to jump six feet in the air.
"YOU'RE OUT. THE REST OF YOU GET TO BED AND REPORT BACK IN 0500 HOURS!"
The exhausted campers made their way out of the mess hall and returned to their cabins. Bridgette and Geoff passed Tyler and smiled at him.
"That was sweet Tyler, what you wrote about Lindsay," Bridgette smiled.
"What?" Tyler asked.
"Come on, Tyler, a girl with long golden hair," Bridgette replied.
"I didn't write about Lindsay," Tyler shrugged his shoulders.
"Don't be modest. We know you and Lindsay are tight," Geoff responded.
"I didn't write about Lindsay," Tyler replied defensively, "And Lindsay is not the only girl here with long golden hair." He looked at Bridgette.
"That's impossible," Bridgette replied.
"Someone's crushing on Bridgette," Geoff teased, "Not surprised, you're a great girl."
Bridgette blushed. "That's impossible, you're with Lindsay," Bridgette pointed to Tyler then to Geoff, and you're with Katie. That just leaves Cody, Noah, Ezekiel. Cody's with Beth and Noah likes Cody."
"Is no one going to let that go!?" Noah glared as he passed them.
"That just leaves Ezekiel," Geoff smiled, making the surfer blush.
"Look we have to wake up early, so let's get to bed. Knowing Chef, he'll push us extra hard tomorrow." Bridgette grimaced. The friends nodded before making their way to the cabins, and Bridgette pushed the essay and Ezekial out of her head.
*** Obstacle Course ***
A few hours later, the still tired campers had to show up to an obstacle course. There were large wooden walls, swinging ropes, and even a swinging axe. The campers took off into the course, Geoff had some trouble getting stuck in the mud, Heather got her foot tied around the swinging ropes, Tyler had difficulty with pretty much everything. As people kept running the course, Eva was in the lead followed by Izzy, but trailing behind everyone was Ezekiel and Noah.
"This... SUCKS!" Ezekiel tried to catch his breath as they struggled to climb the wall, only making it halfway to the top before they plummeted to the ground. They spit out a large helping of mud as they tried to get up.
"I can't keep going!" Noah as they both collapsed.
"Are you two weaklings calling it quits?" Chef asked.
"Yeah... eh. I can't handle anymore," Ezekiel replied, looking ashamed as he glanced at his team, Eva glared at him.
"Me too," Noah added.
"Your tours of duty are finished," Chef replied and then turned to face the remaining campers still in the game, "it's time for the final challenge."
*** Forest ***
The campers still competing were dangling upside down from the top of a giant tree. Geoff, Eva, Bridgette and Tyler were on one side, Heather, Gwen and Izzy on the other.
"Whoever lasts the longest wins immunity for their team," Chef explained. "By now the blood has started to rush to your heads. Up next is nausea." As Chef continued to list the side effects, Bridgette and Heather passed out.
"Are you alright?" Katie asked as she and Ezekiel went over to inspect her.
"I'm okay," Bridgette replied. She tried to get up just as Tyler lost his grip and landed on top of her. "On second thought, no, I'm not." She groaned.
"You've got this crazy girl," Heather cheered from down below.
"You've got this Gwen!" Noah said.
"Izzy lives for the head rush!" Izzy cheered loudly.
"Me, too!" Geoff shouted, "It feels so ... good." His speech began to slow, and he passed out, followed by Gwen, leaving just Eva from the Bass and Izzy for the Gophers.
"We got this!" Bridgette cheered.
"Go, Eva!" Tyler replied.
"You, doing alright up there?" Cody asked.
"Oh, yeah," Izzy replied, "Izzy could do this all day."
Eva said nothing and glared at Izzy with a determined look. Two hours passed and neither of them budged and soon night fell.
"These two are determined," Chef said.
Soon enough, the two determined campers began to lose their grip and were both beginning to slide off the tree. Eva, however, held on just long enough for Izzy to fall to the ground first. As Izzy hit the ground, Eva jumped down.
"The Bass win," Chef exclaimed. The Bass ran over to Eva to celebrate, as the Gophers groaned collectively at the realization that they'd lost.
As the Bass cheered Eva, Chef approached her.
"Well done soldier," Chef said as he saluted, "I'll go to war with you, anytime."
"Uhh...Thanks," Eva replied.
"Glad to hear it, soldier," Chef said as a single tear ran down his face. "Glad to hear it."
*** Camp Grounds ***
The Bass celebrated all the way to the cabins, having earned decent food for winning the challenge. The campers had a picnic of fresh fruits, sandwiches, soda pop, chips and more. Katie and Geoff sat together in a corner to eat, and Tyler was going to make a toast, but Eva threatened him not to. Ezekiel and Bridgette sat together, eating grilled cheese sandwiches and sharing a bag of cookies and potato salad. The two accidentally touched hands for a moment as they reached into the cookie bag and Ezekiel turned away blushing.
Over at the Gophers cabin, Noah was thinking of a plan with Cody and Gwen.
"Either way, it will be a tie!" Cody pointed out.
"Unless we can get one of them to vote off someone else," Noah smirked, as he saw Heather arriving with Lindsay and Izzy. "I have an idea."
The bookworm walked over to the trio, with a smiling, "Ladies, lovely evening."
"Hi, Noah!" Izzy and Lindsay greeted with a smile, Heather just glared.
"What do you want?" Heather snarled.
"Just want to talk to Lindsay for a minute," he smiled. Heather glared but allowed it, leaving the two alone."
"What do you want, Noah?" Lindsay smiled.
"Look Lindsay today we are voting for the beautiful girl on the Island," Noah said.
"Really?" She asked.
"Really."
*** Confessional Noah ***
"I'm not proud of what I did. Hurting Lindsay is like kicking a puppy."
*** Elimination Ceremony ***
The Screaming Gophers gathered at the bonfire with Chef instead of Chris.
"Isn't the elimination ceremony exciting?!" Izzy clapped and grinned, "It's like we're death row inmates, waiting for the jury to decide our fate; lethal injection or the electric chair!"
"Alright maggots: Bookworm, Crazy Girl, Queen Bee, and Tech Boy are safe!" Chef tossed marshmallows at Noah, Izzy, Heather and Cody. Leaving just Lindsay and Gwen left.
"The maggot staying is." Gwen and Lindsay glance with anxiously at each other and turned their attention to Chef.

"Goth girl!"
Heather and Lindsay gasped while Gwen sighed in relief and stood up with others. Heather was dumbfounded that she lost another member of her alliance, fighting the urge to scream.
"Blondie, your duty on the line is over." Chef pointed to the docks.
Lindsay closed her eyes and fought back the tears. All of her teammates hugged her goodbye, except Heather, who just glared and folded her arms.
"What can I say, Lindsay, you screwed up," Heather replied coldly.
"You're not sad?" Lindsay asked, broken.
"Why should I be?" Heather replied. "You're eliminated, so you're useless now."
"But I thought we were friends?" Lindsay said sadly.
"Friends?" Heather snickered, "You and me? As if!"
"Wow, everyone is right about you. You're a cold-hearted bitch!"
"Well, you're a loser. So goodbye, you dumb bimbo!"
Red in the face with anger, Lindsay lunged forward, punching Heather in the face.
"Good punch!" Cody smiled as Heather ran off.
"Thanks, Cody," Lindsay smiled, "and kick Heather's butt for me, will you?"
"Oh, we will big time," Gwen replied, respecting the girl for the first time.
"Goodbye!" Lindsay began to walk down the docks sadly.
"WAIT!" Lindsay turned back and saw Tyler running to her.
"No no no... why?" Tyler ran over, close to tears. "Why'd you vote her off? This...this so isn't right!"
He collapsed to his knees in the show, bo will left in his body. Tyler couldn't stop the tears from coming, he couldn't bring himself to stand up. This was worse than any game he lost, he felt sick.
Lindsay came over, down on her knees as well. "Tyler," she said, putting her hands on his shoulders, "it's not all over yet. I may be leaving, but you'll see me again soon."
He looked up at her baby blue eyes, his own brown pupils wet with tears. "You're right."
"Tyler! You go win more challenges, and kicks lots of butt, you hear me?"
The jock nodded, then took her in his arms and kissed her. And...boy, it was a long one. Heather was dumbfounded as she lost a alliance member, fighting the urge to screaming, Gwen, Cody and Noah who gathered to say Goodbye at the docks exchanged mildly uncomfortable glances of guilt as the kiss lasted what was about a minute.
"I'll miss you."
"I'll miss me, too. Now kick some butt out there?" Lindsay pulled him in for one last kiss, and Tyler waved goodbye as she stepped onto the boat of losers. She waved back as she was beginning driven away, and Tyler sat on the docks, watching the boat disappear.
"The rest of you maggots are safe!" Chef said, "Go and rest soldiers; you earned it." He turned to the camera and glared, "Come back next time to see which one of these MAGGOTS go home, or I don't get paid."
