leo45: We'll see how things go.
Jss2141: Indeed.
LaCuevademisgustos: We shall see how that goes.
Indeed. We will see how things go.
Thanks, that was xx15's idea.
We'll see what happens to Noah.
Metal Face: Ezekiel's a character I enjoy too. I always did feel bad for him, he just needed some guidance.
Screaming Gophers: Heather, Sadie, Beth, Jo, Ella, Cody, Noah, Ezekiel, Brick
Killer Bass: Duncan, Harold, Lightning, Mike, Shawn, Rodney, Lindsay, Eva, Dawn, Sky, Amy
"Last time on Total Drama Island, the Killer Bass kicked butt at the Awake-a thon when Jo took a snooze, Heather orchestrated the first alliance in Total Drama history and Owen's flatulence and humor caused his own elimination." Chris recapped "Who will break the rules of the new alliance, will Shawn be able to stay awake for the entire episode, and who will take the next humiliating walk down the Dock Of Shame, Find out on Total Drama Island."
(After theme song)
We see the Screaming Gophers and the Killer Bass at the Mess Hall where they all began eating.
Duncan was still sleeping from the last challenge, leading Chris to take note.
"Duncan. You look like crap, dude." Chris teased the delinquent.
"Stuff it." Duncan mumbled at Chris' direction and fell back asleep.
"Harold snored all night," Mike explained the situation.
"Wow. Four nights with no sleep? How much are you hurting, dude?" Chris snickered.
"Wanna find out!" Duncan snarled, which caused his teammates to hide under the table.
Chris was feeling amused. "No, no, it's cool. It's cool."
The door opened, and everyone gasped as Harold was shown to have a mustache drawn on him. Although he walked by casually, a few of the campers giggled.
"Okay what?" Harold asked his team.
"Someone sketched your face," Amy smirked in amusement.
Harold looked at himself with a spoon and smiled. "Hey sweet stache."
"Hey-hey, everyone, it's Shawn!" Chris told everyone.
The Killer Bass applauded for the one who lasted the longest last challenge.
"Yay! Why are we clapping?" Lindsay questioned, but still showed support.
Shawn had his head hanging down as he was still sleepy. He sat down and slammed his head on the table.
Confessional: Ezekiel
"My team has lost two times in a row." Ezekiel recapped. "I believe it's because of what I've learned growing up, but I can make up for it during today's challenge eh."
Confessional Ends
Soon we see Heather, Sadie, and Ella talking to each other.
"So let's go over the alliance rules again, number one I am the captain of this alliance, number two…" Heather began.
"Breaking the rules can result in getting kicked out of the alliance." Ella continued.
"Good." Heather nodded "Number three is that I can borrow your stuff without asking but my stuff is strictly off limits." Heather smirked.
"That's an invasion of our own privacy." Ella said.
"That's cool I can change it, I can also take someone else to the final three with me." Heather threatened.
Ella and Sadie shook their heads in fear.
Confessional: Ella
"At least we'll make it to the finale?" Ella hoped with optimism.
Confessional Ends
"Team, this camp definitely sucks and the food is nasty, but I'll stand by the honor of winning twice in a row," Lightning toasted.
"You're right," Eva nodded over. "It's good to be the powerhouse team right now."
"To team Bass!" Lightning roared, and the Bass complied in sync with "Team Bass!"
The Screaming Gophers saw them with jealousy and misery.
Chris then laid out the plan. "Alright campers, your next challenge is in ten minutes and be prepared to bring it."
We then see the campers, Chris, and Chef in a glass room with a dodgeball court.
Duncan was the last to enter. He flopped onto the bleachers. Next to him was Shawn, who was dead asleep at this point.
"Wake me up, and it'll be the last thing you do," Duncan threatened his team, to which Rodney gulped at it.
"Thanks for the snoring session, Harold Dynamite!" Amy growled at Harold.
"It's called a medical condition, gosh!" an offended Harold defended himself.
Chef, wearing a referee outfit, blew his whistle. He strolled by the campers and scowled at them.
"Today's challenge is the classic game of dodgeball," Chris explained "The first rule of dodgeball is…
"Do not talk about dodgeball?" Noah referenced Fight Club.
Ezekiel laughed at this. "That's funny."
"If you get hit with the ball…" Chris then threw the ball at Ezekiel causing him to get hit in the chest. "You're out." Chris continued.
"I wasn't ready eh!" Ezekiel said angrily before throwing the ball at Chris who caught it.
"If you catch the ball the thrower gets sent out and the catcher gets to bring a teammate into the game." Chris explained.
"Throwing balls. Gee, another mentally challenging test." Noah moaned.
"I know right?" Lindsay sympathized, making Noah shoot looks with Ezekiel.
"Rodney, try to hit me with the ball." Chris threw the ball to Rodney who caught it.
Chef, who was dressed in a referee uniform, gave Chris another ball.
"You can use a ball to deflect another ball…" Chris began as Rodney threw a ball at him "But if the ball falls out of your hands you're out."
"So, what do I do again when the ball comes at me?" Lindsay questioned the host while Geoff threw the ball.
"You dodge!" Chris claimed when he used a ball to deflect the one Rodney threw, which nailed Lindsay in the face, making everyone gasp. "You were supposed to dodge."
A bruised Lindsay got up. "Right."
"Now each team must have five players start. So get your teams ready." Chris told everyone. "Shawn, Jo, Duncan, since you won't be able to participate, you three can go to your cabins and rest as a reward for lasting long in the last challenge."
The three slowly made their way out of the court.
Confessional: Lightning
"So what if we're down two players?" Lightning looked around the outhouse. "That's not gonna stop us from winning."
Confessional Ends
Soon we cut to the Screaming Gophers where Heather was speaking to her team "Okay we are not losing another game to these guys. Who wants to sit the first one out?"
Noah thought for a second and smiled. "Oh, all right. I'll volunteer. Now let's see all you keeners get on out there and dodge!" Noah faked enthusiasm for his team.
"I'll play the first round." Ezekiel raised his hand.
"Excellent." Heather smirked.
So it was decided Cody, Sadie, Ezekiel, Heather, and Brick played for the Screaming Gophers while Mike, Harold, Amy, Lindsay, and Lightning played for the Killer Bass.
All ten players were at the side of the court their team were meant to be in.
"Bring it on gophers. We're just being given easy wins." Amy taunted.
Cody tried to trash talk back. "Oh you're so… uh…" Cody was stumped on what to say. "You're going down."
His teammates were unimpressed.
Confessional: Cody
"I don't like to insult girls," Cody timidly admitted. "That's not how the Codemeister rolls."
Confessional Ends
"Both teams ready? Best of five games wins! Now! Let's dodge some balls!" Chris announced before the whistle blew.
Soon the game began, Sadie threw a ball at Amy who dodged the ball and threw one at Sadie.
Chef blew the whistle signifying that Sadie was out.
"Time to unleash my wicked skills," Harold stepped up.
Ezekiel was confused. "Okay. Show me what you can do?"
Harold did a little demonstration before throwing the ball, but he threw it on the ground accidentally, making it roll over to Ezekiel.
Ezekiel picked up the ball and smirked. Harold let out a high-pitched scream and tried to run away but nevertheless, Ezekiel sent him flying to the wall.
Chef blew the whistle signifying that Harold was out.
"Cool. I did it." Ezekiel beamed happily as Brick shot him a thumbs up.
Lindsay walked up carrying a ball. "Can someone remind me what I'm supposed to do with this again?"
Her answer was her getting hit in the face by a dodgeball, signaling her out of the game.
Confessional: Lindsay
"How long does it normally take bruises to go away?" Lindsay confessed.
Confessional: Amy
"I'm the captain of the volleyball team back home." Amy bragged. "It's different from dodgeball but both sports require balls."
Confessional Ends
"Here I go." Amy picked up a ball of her own, tossed it up in the air, and punched it hard, kneeing Brick in the groin.
Chef blew the whistle signifying that Brick was out.
"What the heck?!" Heather yelled. "Ref, are you sure that's allowed?!"
"It's just a game," Amy retorted. "Get over yourself."
Heather picked up a ball and threw it at Amy's stomach, getting her out of the game.
"I've got your back!" Lightning told Amy before hurling the ball at Heather's face, eliminating her from the game.
At this point, Cody and Ezekiel are left for the Bass while Lightning and Mike are left for the Gophers.
First, Cody and Ezekiel threw balls at Lightning. He deflected the first one, but let the second one take him out of the game.
Now Mike was trembling because he's the only Bass member left. Ezekiel and Cody shot him competitive smiles.
Mike was getting worried and began to speak "In the dodgeball court going up against the Bass…" Mike then gasped turning into Svetlana "Is Svetlana."
She dodged the first ball with a flip and grabbed the second one in order to chuck it at Ezekiel.
Ezekiel went to the bleachers, making it a 1v1 fight.
Cody put the ball in the air and threw it towards Svetlana, but her flip countered it.
"That isn't a tough ball to dodge thanks to Mike." Chris commented.
Cody decided to get serious. He rubbed his last ball against his shirt and hurled it at Svetlana. She tried moving in different directions, but no matter what, the ball hit her.
The Gophers cheered due to the fact that Cody was the last one standing for their team. Sadie even high-fived him in the process.
The Killer Grips have a team meeting.
"We can do this! We just have to believe in ourselves!" Harold tried to inspire his team.
"That's good, Harold, but you weren't exactly the best out there. I think you should sit out this round." Sky turned to Lindsay. "You too, Lindsay, just until your face gets better."
"Thanks Sofia." Lindsay smiled.
"Okay this time, give all your balls to me," Eva suggested. "I have a plan.
The Screaming Gophers were still planning.
"Noah, would you like to give it a try?" Ella sweetly asked her book reading teammate.
"You know, you guys did such an awesome job on the last game, that I don't wanna mess up your mojo." Noah lazily said.
"Fine." Heather agreed. "Let's go guys."
Soon we see Ella, Beth, Brick, Ezekiel, and Cody on the left side while Rodney, Lightning, Eva, Dawn, and Amy are on the other.
Chef whistles beginning the game.
"I'll show them what we've got." Eva cried out while holding the balls.
First, Eva threw a fastball at Cody at Cody's stomach.
Next, Eva chucked her 2nd ball at both Beth and Brick's heads.
"That girl's got some skills." Chris said to the camera.
Then, Eva swatted another ball towards Ezekiel's belly button.
Ella was shaking now after seeing how beastly Eva can be.
For Eva's final act, she simply tosses the ball towards Ella's knees, not enough to harm her but enough to signal her out.
"Oooh that's gonna leave a mark." Chris slyly stated.
"That was so incredible!" Amy boasted perkily.
With a score of 0-Gophers and 5-Bass the Bass had won the round making the game tied so far.
Confessional: Ezekiel
"I've never met a girl like Eva in my life before," Ezekiel gaped in shock.
Confessional Ends
Heather leered at Noah, who was still reading. "I'm glad someone is trying today.
Noah looked up. "Oh, sorry." He let out unenthusiastic support. "Woohoo! Way to throw those murder balls! Go, team, go!"
Confessional: Noah
"Sports." Noah sighed. "Can't live with them, can't get rid of them."
Confessional Ends
The Killer Bass had a team meeting.
"I can't believe your strategy worked," Mike told Eva.
"Don't be so surprised," Eva assured everyone. "I'm super good at sports, and dodgeball is no exception."
"So far, the score is tied," Sky let everyone know. "We just need 2 rounds and we'll win the game."
"So who should go up this time?" Lindsay asked.
"We shouldn't be repetitive or the team will be on to us," Eva thought. "I'll sit this one out and play next time."
"I'll go," Amy offered. "I'm not as good as you are, but I can't use my own experiences in volleyball to help the team."
"Good plan, everyone," Sky complimented them.
Mike was sitting on the top part of the bleachers, so he jumped out of his seat. However, his shirt got caught in the corner, making it rip. Soon he gasped and turned into someone else.
"Ey yo where am I?" The alter asked.
"Uh you're in a dodgeball court Mike." Sky said.
"Mike, the name's Vito." The alter known as Vito corrected.
"Um, what?" Harold asked.
Confessional: Sky
"Why did Mike call himself Vito?" a confused Sky wondered. "I'll have to get to him about that."
Confessional Ends
Soon it was Vito, Sky, Amy, Rodney, and Lindsay versus Ezekiel, Beth, Ella, Sadie, and Heather.
Sky started off the game by running, doing a cartwheel, snatching her ball, and aiming for Ezekiel.
Chef sent Ezekiel to the bleachers.
Confessional: Sky
"All of my gymnastics training has taught me many aerobic tricks," Sky reasoned. "I don't brag about it because I prefer good sportsmanship over clout."
Confessional Ends
Elsewhere, a pair of chipmunks were climbing a tree only to find out that Shawn was sleeping on a branch. One of them threw nuts at his face just to wake him up but he didn't move a muscle. The chipmunks chattered and left to find another place to sleep.
The scene cut back to show that Sky and Vito were left up against Beth and Sadie.
"Alright, girls, show Vito what you've got." Vito challenged the Gopher girls.
They threw their balls at him, and Vito responded by ducking to avoid a ball and punching a hurling ball back at Beth's face.
Sky and Sadie were impressed by the display. Sky quickly snapped out of it and used the opportunity to throw her ball towards Sadie's direction.
Chef blew his whistle and signaled the Bass as the winners of the round, making the score 2 for the Bass and 1 for the Gophers.
Soon the Screaming Gophers began to strategize again.
"Okay. This is sucking right now." Ezekiel moped. "One more game and we'll lose the challenge again!"
"We can't let that happen, people." Heather clarified and turned her attention to Noah. "This time, you're definitely helping."
"And why should I?" Noah talked back.
"You haven't played in a single round once." Cody glared at Noah.
Noah was starting to get annoyed. "Sports aren't my forte, remember?"
"It will be, because if you don't participate, I guarantee you that you'll be the next one voted out of the camp." Heather warned him.
Noah looked at the glares his teammates were shooting at him and knew they weren't joking around. "Alright you've asked for it. You want a team player? I'll give you a team player. I have an idea."
The next game has Noah, Beth, Cody, Ella, and Ezekiel versus Amy, Rodney, Dawn, Lindsay, and Eva.
Chef blew the whistle and the game began.
Eva threw all 4 balls at her opponents, but this time, they ducked, grabbed her balls, and threw it at her body, knocking her down.
Confessional: Noah
"With Eva being the Bass' most valuable player, I devised a plan to rush her off, leaving us with the weaker players to deal with." Noah shrugged.
Confessional Ends
A montage played of the Bass targeting one Gopher at a time with dodgeball. From Rodney to Lindsay to Amy and lastly Dawn, who fell upon impact.
Chef ended the round, and the score is now tied.
"Okay, this is it! The final tie-breaking game!" Chris enthusically spoke out.
In the next shot the Screaming Gophers begin to strategize for their next game.
"Alright we should continue what we were doing with Noah's strategy." Cody said.
"True." Ezekiel agreed. "I'm going up again."
"Haven't you gone up these past four rounds?" Noah asked him.
"Yeah, but I have lots of practice from archery." Ezekiel said. "I am a good shot after all just like the men from my family."
The Gophers looked startled by what he said.
Soon the Killer Bass were strategizing, with Mike back in control since he got a new shirt.
"Okay who's going in?" Lightning asked his team.
"I think it's my turn." Harold pointed out.
"No way. You might mess up our potential 3rd win for us!" Eva argued.
Harold didn't bother to fight back and went to sit down.
"Gophers, Bass, let's send this sample to the lab... And see what you're made of!" Chris introduced the last round.
It was Lightning, Mike, Rodney, Lindsay, and Amy versus Ella, Brick, Noah, Sadie, and Ezekiel.
Noah took the ball off the ground and passed it to Brick, who moved to another direction.
"Hooray! Let's do this!" Ella said with positivity as a montage played of them passing the ball and throwing them at their opponents.
Chef and Chris watched with anticipation on who will win.
A few minutes later, Lindsay tapped on Harold's shoulder and gave him her dodgeball just so he can participate.
After a while, it all comes down to Harold and Ezekiel. Ezekiel's team cheered him on while Harold's team did not.
"I'm sorry about this, but you kinda have to go down," Ezekiel held up 4 dodgeballs.
"Goodnight Harold," Amy deadpanned.
Harold made a pose to show that he was ready to take on Ezekiel's challenge.
Ezekiel's chucked three balls at him, to which Harold dodged with great ease. When Ezekiel hurled his last ball, Harold bent backwards and let the ball hit the wall.
"Whoa!" Noah gaped from the sidelines.
Sky came up to Chef. "If it's not any trouble, can we have a time out?"
Chef blew his whistle to halt the game. Harold had a cloth around him while he drank water.
"Like you have some great dodging skills!" Amy complimented him. "Where'd you learn to do that?!"
"Figure skating." Harold said in response.
"Harold, that was awesome! But dodging isn't enough." Mike let Harold know.
"Yeah. Champ, to win this, you either have to throw him out…" Lightning planned.
"Which we all know you can't do." Eva looked off to the side.
"Or catch the ball. Can you do it?" Lightning pumped him up.
"Definitely." Harold proudly agreed before drinking water.
"Cool!" Lindsay hugged Harold, who spit out his water towards Dawn in response, much to Dawn's slight disapproval. "Now go out there and catch that ball!"
The scene cut to the final showdown; Ezekiel vs Harold.
Harold's team encouraged him by saying his name over and over again.
"Archery practice, don't fail me now!" Ezekiel hollered before he flung his ball onto Harold's stomach, making him slam the wall.
Harold slid down, and it seems like he's gotten hit… only to reveal that he was holding the ball the whole time.
Chef blew his whistle to end the dodgeball game and Chris declared "The Killer Bass win! For the third time in a row!"
The Killer Bass jumped up in joy and celebrated, and Ezekiel stared at the situation in shock. "We were so close."
"Not bad at all, skater dweeb," Eva congratulated Harold, who was being carried by his team.
Chris then walked over to the Screaming Gophers.
"Screaming Gophers, what happened?" Chris asked. "This is the third time that you've lost."
"What can I say? Weak effort." Noah answered.
"I agree with that." Ezekiel sighed. "After all, we're the team that has the most girls."
His teammates gasped in horror and shock.
"Whatever do you mean by that?" Ella innocently asked.
"Well, guys are much stronger and better at sports than girls are!" Ezekiel confidently stated, much to their dismay.
"He did not just say that," Noah said wide-eyed.
Ezekiel still kept going. "My dad told me to look out for the girls here, eh, and help 'em in case they can't keep up."
A ticked off Heather grabbed his neck. "You still think we need your help, homeschool?"
"Not really." Ezekiel quietly said.
Cody separated them. "Okay, guys. Let's give him a break. I mean, at least he doesn't think that guys are smarter than girls."
Ezekiel still didn't catch on. "But they are."
"Ezekiel, just stop talking!" Noah warned him as he and his teammates left the court with either angry looks or blank faces.
Confessional: Ezekiel
"What did I do wrong?" Ezekiel pondered ignorantly.
Confessional: Harold
"I guess I'm kind of a role model now that I won the dodgeball competition." Harold opened up some snacks. "People will probably all want my autograph when the show is over and stuff."
Confessional Ends
The scene cuts to the elimination ceremony. Jo was fully awake and caught up with the day's events. Chris began speaking "Welcome contestants to your third elimination ceremony, if you don't get a marshmallow you must walk the Dock Of Shame and board the Boat Of Losers. Marshmallows go to…"
"Jo."
Jo smiled while getting her marshmallow.
"Sadie."
Sadie happily gleamed while taking her marshmallow.
"Ella."
Ella got up to get her marshmallow.
"Heather."
Heather smirked while going up to get her marshmallow.
"Beth."
Beth smiles while getting his marshmallow.
"Brick."
Brick collected his marshmallow.
"Cody."
Cody smiled before getting up to claim his marshmallow.
"Well it seems you two are targets tonight." Chris told Ezekiel and Noah who were looking in fear at each other.
"The final marshmallow goes to…" Chris said prolonging the tension.
"Noah."
"Obviously." Noah said in relief before getting his marshmallow.
"Looks like I have to go eh." Ezekiel said nervously. "If I had offended any of you in any way possible, then I apologize for that."
Some of the Screaming Gophers started to rethink their thoughts on him as Ezekiel walked to the Dock of Shame while others remained neutral.
"All right, so it wasn't the most dramatic campfire ceremony ever. But I still get paid. Haha. Bonus!" Chris said to the camera before the episode ended.
Screaming Gophers: Heather, Sadie, Beth, Jo, Ella, Cody, Noah, Brick
Killer Bass: Duncan, Harold, Lightning, Mike, Shawn, Rodney, Lindsay, Eva, Dawn, Sky, Amy
22nd: Courtney
21st: Owen
20th: Ezekiel
Author's Note: Ah Ezekiel, one of the more complicated characters in canon. Don't worry, he'll be back at some point in this series, and we did make his elimination a little less mean spirited because his real crime was just being oblivious, so he apologized for his sexism despite not knowing what he did wrong.
