Cody and Trent are sitting on the rooftop of an apartment building. It is night and the only light coming out is from the windows of the tall buildings in their city. Trent is strumming at his guitar as Cody speaks about his breakup.
"It hurts. It hurts physically." Cody tells him. "I feel like I can't move sometimes." He begins to look up at the sky. "It took me so long to trust Sierra, Trent. After years, I finally let my guard down and let myself accept that someone loved me - that someone could love me."
"There's no doubt that what you're going through is a lot higher stakes than what I went through. But… when Gwen broke up with me because I had an OCD episode? It really crushed me, man."
Trent begins to strum at his guitar and looks down as he thinks of his time in Total Drama Action. He remembers an image he has in his head where Gwen and Duncan are staring at him. Duncan looks angry with his arms crossed, while Gwen is holding onto Duncan's shoulder, hurt. He remembers being branded as 'freak' and 'weird', and felt that especially to be true from Duncan and Gwen.
"Just like you, I was like - I thought that I was loved, and that I was loved for me. Only for something that was the very essence of me… to be the reason I left!?" He stops strumming and looks over at Cody, embarrassed.
"Not that being trans is the same thing as having a mental disorder, it isn't - it's just, something taht you can't help and that you identify with…" Cody smiles at him.
"I know what you mean. Thanks, Trent." In an effort to change the subject, Trent reminisces of something positive that took place after Total Drama Action.
"When I was going through those feelings, and I was hating myself and feeling unlovable, well, you were there. I turned to music. We started the Drama Brothers." Trent begins to strum at his guitar again and smiles at Cody.
"I think you're keeping all of your emotion and all of your trauma locked up inside. You need a way to let it out. I thought maybe we could sing about it?"
"Sing about it…?" Cody asks. Trent strums at his guitar, singing a song he makes up on the spot.
"We used to be close, now you're just a stranga… you left me with all these fuckin' hydrangeas…"
Cody laughs, and begins to add onto the song, singing with him.
"Now I'm payin' the price for every chance that I gave ya, cause you left me alone with all these…"
Trent joins him, and they sing the last line together, smiling at each other. "Fuckin' hydrangeas."
