"Last time on the Ridonculous Race. Our teams went to Paris where their artistic skills and bravery were challenged. Sugar ended up biting into a gigantic wheel of cheese which I didn't even think was possible, but nonetheless, she got herself and Leonard penalized. In the end it was the Cadets who locked up first place but for the Tennis Rivals it was Game! Set! And somebody please light up a match because they STINK! Quite literally might I add, though that's more of the catacombs' fault. Who will stink it up today? Oh they all have the potential, but stay tuned as it is time for the Ridonculous Race!"
(After theme song)
"Yesterday's chill zone was the Louvre so it's today's starting line. Yesterday's winners were the Cadets so…" Don began as Josee and Jacques tried to sneak to the Don box but Don stopped them, "Whoa whoa whoa. Winners first Ice Capades."
"Yeah. Relax Silver Streak." MacArthur said sternly as she and Sanders walked over angrily towards the Ice Dancers.
"Wait your turn!" Sanders commanded.
"Oh but of course." Jacques chuckled nervously, "Apologies for the misunderstanding."
"Misun-" Josee began to snap but Jacques covered her mouth, "We can wait a couple seconds." He whispered reassuringly as the Cadets passed them and headed to the Don box and once Sanders got their tip, they started running.
"I got my eye on those Ice Dancers. Give them an inch and they can take the whole race." MacArthur said suspiciously.
"Fair enough." Sanders didn't argue with that, she soon read the tip, "Take the train to Calanque de Maubois on the Mediterranean Coast and search the station for your next travel tip."

"Teams must take the train south to Calanque de Maubois which skirts the Mediterranean at the South of France with sand so fine, you'd want it in your shorts. I would not recommend it of course but you get the idea. The Red Cliffs are just one of the many sights that make this a popular tourist spot."
We then see Don in his speedo as he speaks, "Did I mention the beaches are awesome. Well they are."
Suddenly a crab grabbed his speedo and gave him a tiny wedgie and let it go.
"OW!"
XXX
Soon the Ice Dancers and Best Bros were seen grabbing their tips and running off.
The Best Friends were soon seen running to the Don box and Devin began to collect one but soon a mime did and ran off with it.
"Hey! Come back here with that!" Devin commanded angrily as he chased the silent prankster.
We then see Junior run over to the tip box when suddenly his eyes shone as he looked at Carrie.
"Uh… hey." Junior said before speaking in a deep voice, "I mean hey. I'm Dwayne."
"Hi. I'm Carrie." Carrie smiled warmly as she held out her hand, and as Junior slowly reached to shake it, Dwayne then appeared and shook it instead.
"Nice to meet ya." Dwayne said happily, "Dwayne Senior, I see you already met Junior. What a great little guy."
"Dad." Junior grunted.
"I mean he acts up sometimes but that happens when you near puberty." Dwayne added obliviously.
"I got the tip." Devin called out from offscreen.
"Cool. Nice to meet you." Carrie smiled before running off to meet her partner.
Confessional: Father and Son
"My dad always finds a way to embarrass me." Junior rolled his eyes.
"Oh that's not true son." Dwayne smiled reassuringly, "You're just being self conscious. Also, before I forget, I washed your lucky undies." He then holds up a green pair of underwear with green clovers making Junior furious, "Oh dad! Not in the confessional!"
We then see the Cadets trying desperately to get a taxi with Sanders calling out, "Taxi!"
"There are so many cabs! Why won't they stop?!" Sanders said angrily.
"No problem, I'll take care of this." MacArthur told her partner, "HALT!" She leapt onto the road with a police badge in hand.
Soon a cab stopped while one car ended up bashing into it, creating a dent at the back.
MacArthur soon ran up to the cab driver and spoke through the window, "Police! We are commandeering this vehicle maggot."
MacArthur then gave Sanders a thumbs up, "Got one."
"I'm a little concerned… you can be a bit aggressive." Sanders admits sheepishly as she and MacArthur got in the cab.
"What? I dare you to say that again." MacArthur glared at her friend before chuckling, "I'm just kidding but I think we're fine so don't worry about me."
We then see the Ice Dancers running down a path when Jacques smiled at the stairs leading towards a subway.
"Huzzah! We have found a subway!" Jacques smiled brightly, "It is the fastest way to the train station."
"Follow the skaters dude." Geoff said happily as he and DJ ran inside the subway station and soon they began waiting for the subway along with the Ice Dancers.
"My strategy is pretty simple Deej. Instead of trying to find a way to get to the train ourselves. We just follow a team that's smarter than me and most teams kinda fit that bill not gonna lie." Geoff told the brickhouse with a nonchalant smirk.
"Aw come on man. You got some good qualities in you." DJ said disapprovingly at Geoff's word choice.
"I know but it's just easier to do. Ya know." Geoff shrugged with a smile.
We then see the Rockers at the Don box and Rock began running off with his tip but soon noticed Spud wasn't running along thanks to the headphones so he took Spud's arm and they began running.
We then see the Sisters and Mother and Daughter reach the Don box and grab their tips.
"Alright teammate of mine, let's have some fun." Kitty told her sister happily.
"No! Let's not have fun, let's actually get first place for a change." Emma shut down the idea immediately, "Train station! Let's go!"
"Woohoo! Fun!" Kitty whooped before Emma called out, "Stop it."
We then see MacArthur driving the taxi as the taxi driver sat at the back.
"I need directions Sanders!" MacArthur commanded.
"There's no map in the glove box." Sanders alerted her partner.
"Time for bad cop." MacArthur smirked before stopping the car and turning to the driver, "Train station! Directions! Immediately!"
We then see Dwayne and Junior running together but the former was clearly sweating and worn out.
"Way to go son." Dwayne said happily, "I wasn't sure you'd be able to keep up with me, I'm kinda an athlete."
Junior however ran ahead of him causing Dwayne to stop and take a breath, "Just… hold up."
Back with the Cadets, Sanders was looking out of the front window and smiled, "The train station is just ahead!"
"Saw this in a movie once. Hold still." MacArthur said happily before swerving the wheel, causing the car to spin but thankfully it somehow parked safely.
"This is for parking in a fire zone." MacArthur said as she put a ticket in front of the car windshield.
"Can you give a ticket outside your jurisdiction?" Sanders asked as MacArthur helped her out of the cars
Soon the Cadets ran off and MacArthur scoffed, "Remind me to give you a ticket for excessive complaining."
"That is not an actual offense." Sanders said angrily as they ran.
"While Sugar and Leonard are the last ones to take off from the starting line. Our first five teams are heading for the train." Don narrates as the Ice Dancers, Best Bros, Cadets, Best Friends, and Father and Son run to the train in a hurry and soon get on.
"The rest of the teams race to catch the next train south."
We then see Tom and Jen putting on makeup as the taxi moves onward.
"The South Of France is one of the most glamorous people in the world. It's like Paris but with glossier lipstick." Jen explained happily.
Tom suddenly gasped and then rummaged through his bag, "Oh no. Please tell me I have it."
He sighed in relief as he held up a spray bottle, "Spray tan?" Tom asked his partner with a smile.
"I'm insulted that you felt the need to ask." Jen quipped good-naturedly before Tom sprayed her with the tan spray.
Meanwhile in the Geniuses' taxi, they began enthusiastically pointing out directions.
"Take Lefran to Canal." Mary began.
"Canal to Germain." Ellody continued.
"Germain to Belmont."
"Take a left on Legrande."
"Reverse onto Berrault."
"And make a u-turn back to Legrande South to Dunkerque." The Geniuses finished together.
Confessional: Geniuses
"We weren't exactly 'popular' back in high school." Ellody admits sheepishly.
"But memorizing the street maps of every urban center is just as fun as the typical high school events like prom, dates, and parties." Mary adds before continuing, "Either way, our choices are paying off. We can outthink all the other teams."
Meanwhile the Sisters were in their own taxi when Kitty asked the cab driver, "Hey, can you take a quick pic of me and my big sister?"
"This is a race Kit, not a vacation." Emma said sternly.
Kitty then put her arm around Emma as she smiled, "Oh come on. Just one picture of me and you. Paris~" Kitty said happily before snapping a photo much to Emma's annoyance.
We then see the Opposites, Daters, Goths, Geniuses, and Fashion Bloggers waiting at the train station while the Geniuses are laughing at the Fashion Bloggers' really tan skin.
"Your skin looks like it's received too much overexposure to dihydroxyacetone." Mary said stifling a laugh as Ellody broke into a giggling fit.
"As group two waits for the train to arrive, the first group has just arrived at the beach." Don narrates as we cut to the five leading teams running at the beach train station to the Don box.
"There's the Don box." Dwayne said before the teams began getting their tips.
"It's Botch or Watch." DJ informed Geoff before asking, "Which one of us is goin'?"
"It's your turn man. What's the challenge?" Geoff said
"Okay. It says who wants to swim with…" DJ began before gasping, "SHARKS!"
XXX
We then see Don on a flotation raft as he announces, "In this Botch or Watch, whoever did not draw a caricature in Paris must swim through these shark infested Mediterranean waters and grab a tip from the fin of a Great White Shark." Don explained before a shark snapped his jaws up at him causing him to scream in a high pitched voice.
Don then regained his cool and smirked, "Uh… try that again and you'll be getting a knuckle sandwich. Do you dare test your luck against the Widow Maker…"
The shark just growled at him, making him fall back.
XXX
We then see the five teams at the shore of the beach when Devin spoke up, "Be right back homie…. I hope."
"Crush it bro." Geoff smiled encouragingly.
"Uh… I don't know man." DJ gulped, "These sharks look pretty ruthless."
"Hey man. Don't worry. I'm sure the show'll save you if you almost get eaten." Geoff told the Brickhouse in a reassuring tone.
"Well… if you're sure." DJ sighed before walking in the water slowly.
"Swim with sharks?" MacArthur smirked, "Man, did I dodge a bullet or what?"
"Uh… still here." Sanders said meekly.
"Sorry, but you gotta admit that you'd feel a similar way in my position." MacArthur explains which Sanders shrugs at, "Fair enough I suppose."
"Good. Now get that shark!" MacArthur shouted motivatingly before pushing Sanders in the ocean.
We then see Josee, Devin, and Dwayne all swimming towards the sharks, though Josee was practically swimming like a swan before doing a flip and catching the tip tied to the shark's fin and swimming towards shore.
"Wow. Nice move." Devin complimented before trying to grab a tip from a shark himself before DJ suddenly jumped atop of the ravenous fish much to Devin's surprise.
"Sorry man." DJ said in fear, "Gotta. Get. The tip."
The shark then jumped across the ocean, DJ refusing to let go of the beast.
"As the teams from train one battle the top of the ocean food chain. The teams from train two arrive to begin the challenge." Don narrates.
Soon the Geniuses, Daters, Goths, and Opposites all made it out of the train.
"Weren't there four teams on this train?" Mary questions with a raised eyebrow.
"Never mind that. Let's get the tip." Ellody told her partner as they ran after the other three teams.
We then see Devin was underwater as he grabbed the tip from the shark's fin, only for it to turn towards him furiously and chase after the boy, who unfortunately let go of the tip and let it float to shore.
Dwayne just so happened to be swimming above waters and found the lone tip much to his delight.
Confessional: Father and Son
"I'm actually proud of my dad. It takes guts to swim in shark infested waters after all." Junior admits with a smile.
"Oh Junior, this ain't your father's first shark rodeo. If anything those sharks should have been scared of the Dwayne man." Dwayne smirked before doing a bunch of kung-fu moves which led him to punch the camera, cracking the screen.
"Oh my gosh. I am so happy. You okay?" Dwayne asked with a nervous smile to the offscreen cameraman.
We then see Lightning heading to the water as he smirks, "Lightning eats a bowl of hot stew as well as getting to battle a bunch of sharks. It must be sha-destiny that he gets all the awesome challenges."
"Uh… pretty sure it's just the luck of the pattern dynamic." Cameron admitted to the jock who had already begun swimming.
Cameron then watched as Ryan and Stephanie stopped kissing so Stephanie could say, "Babe, if you got eaten by that shark. I would eat the shark so that we would always be together."
Ryan oddly was not disturbed by this and continued kissing Stephanie.
"Once again, honeymoon phase." Cameron said dully before hearing a boat honk and saw that the Fashion Bloggers had parked near open waters on a yacht.
"WHAT?! HOW?! WHY?!" Cameron said in shock.
"Hi everyone. Hope you didn't miss us." Tom said happily.
Confessional: Fashion Bloggers
"We stepped out the train in Cannes just to breath it in." Tom began explaining before Jen continued, "And right there, the Prince Of Monaco was on the platform."
"He asked where we were heading and one thing led to another so we ended up partying on a yacht with a prince." Tom squealed.
Confessional Ends
"Thanks for the ride, your highness." Jen said happily before a shark jumped nearby leading Tom to scream and jump into Jen's arms.
We then see Josee swimming towards shore gracefully, almost eating up the nonexistent attention she was receiving.
"She is beautiful, graceful, and strong. She moves like a swan in which makes other swans feel ugly." Jacques narrated before he felt a sharp pain in the butt which turned out to be a swan glaring at the skater.
"Oh… sorry about that." Jacques chuckled sheepishly, "Mere exaggeration I assure you."
We then see Dwayne shouting out to Junior from the ocean, "Go get a bucket son! We gotta build a castle."
He then let his head go underwater as Don spoke up in narration, "Dwayne may be drowning but he is correct, for this All-In challenge, the teams have to build a sand replica of the Palace Of Versailles, when the local child sand castle prodigy Sandy McCastles who's name is likely fake gives them the thumbs up, he'll give them the next tip."
Back with the Cadets, Sanders had just returned from the ocean and onto shore with the tip.
"About time." MacArthur said sternly, "My grandmother can doggy paddle faster."
Sanders just rolls her eyes in annoyance.
We then see back in the ocean that Tom was swimming away from a shark that was chasing him while Lightning and Ryan were both wrestling sharks for their tips.
Finally Devin had regained a travel tip and began cheering, "Woohoo! Bringing it back alive!"
We then see a shark rise from underwater and now carrying Devin.
"That bites, hopefully not literally." Devin gulped.
We then see Mary was rising above water when two sharks began to surround her when suddenly they cringed in fear and swam away, dropping the two tips tied to them one of which Mary caught.
Solo Confessional: Mary
"No, the shark is not afraid of me. It's afraid of magnets, though the charged metals and saltwater affect the shark's electroreception and disrupts it. I'd go on but this is a half hour show." Mary explained as she held a magnet.
Solo Confessional Ends
We then see the final teams from train three race to the Dom box to collect their tips as Don narrates, "The third train has arrived and as more teams begin the second challenge, the Best Bros are still trying to finish the first one."
We then see Geoff looking out in the distance for DJ, "Deej, you doing okay man?"
DJ however, is currently being chased in the water when he yells, "Come on man! If you're gonna chase me, at least do it towards shore!"
Back with the Rockers, Rock nervously went in the water while Spud was just jamming to whatever tunes he was playing on his headphones.
Solo Confessional: Rock
"I guess I'll do anything to win. I need the money for my parents. They aren't getting younger and really want me out of their basement, maybe if I win, I can get my own basement…" Rock began riffing before Rock gives a blank look, "Or a house would probably work more."
Solo Confessional Ends
We then see a shark heading towards bubbling water and when it growls at it's potential victim, it reveals itself to be Crimson who blankly stared at the shark with cold eyes, which scared it into willingly giving her the tip.
Back with the teams building sand castles, Ryan and Stephanie were wistfully building a sand castle, really taking their time. Cameron was neatly building the sandcastle himself while Lightning wasn't really helping much and sometimes destroyed part of the structure by accident and finally Dwayne was digging a mountain of sand while Junior watched happily.
We then see Sanders and MacArthur building their sandcastle when Sanders asked, "You sure this has to be so big?"
"Of course. My motto is bigger is better, we either do that or go home." MacArthur smirked which caught Lightning's attention.
"New plan. We go big or go home!" Lightning told the bubble boy sternly.
"We were doing that anyway." Cameron reminds him.
Back with the Geniuses, they were drawing a bunch of data on the sand which caught Cameron's attention, "Well, this seems like a lot."
"We're scientists." Ellody said formally, "We know how important planning stages are."
"Agreed. We're building sandcastles, this isn't kids stuff." Mary nodded.
Cameron just blinked in confusion when he heard that.
We then see Sandy shaking his head at the Father and Son's sandcastle much to Dwayne's annoyance.
"Not good enough! This is the best sandcastle ever!" Dwayne said angrily before walking towards Sandy who was leaving the scene, "Hey, I was making sandcastles before you were making them in your pants pal."
We then see Cody had claimed a tip from a shark but was unfortunately surrounded by two other sharks, "Um… any chance you guys are Total Drama fans?" He asked meekly.
Back with the teams, Kelly and Taylor had been building a sandcastle, well the former was anyway when the tiny sandcastle was taken by a crab.
Spud was buried up to his neck in sand when Rock looked at him in confusion, Mickey was handed a pail by Jay but unfortunately, he couldn't support it's weight and fell down.
Back with Cody, he had been covered in scratch marks, his shirt was torn, and his hair was all frazzled when Emma swam nearby, "What happened to you?"
"Had to outswim sharks." Cody sighed.
"Well I am glad it was me in the water and not Kit. If anything happened to her…" Emma began before Cody spoke up, "Let me guess, you would never be able to live with yourself."
"Well that's obvious." Emma nodded, "But I was also going to say that they'd disqualify us immediately."
"Ah." Cody said neutrally.
We then see Sugar and Leonard were building their sandcastle and it looked just wonderful when Leonard spoke up, "Hold up a minute Sugar. We need to add a little pizzazz to this wonderful creation." Leonard said happily.
"Uh… what did you have in mind Leonard?" Sugar asked curiously.
"Simple. We use this magic glitter made out of pixie dust. It will be so dazzling that the judge cannot help but adore it." Leonard said before reaching into a small sack and throwing pink glitter at it, covering the entire castle in pink.
"Ooh sparkly." Sugar smiled enthusiastically before Sandy walked over, he had to shield his eyes from the glittery castle he saw, and he was wearing sunglasses. The castle immediately fell apart due to how much stuff was on it making Leonard chuckle sheepishly at Sugar's glare.
Solo Confessional: Leonard
"I suppose I should come clean." Leonard sighed, "I know I'm not a wizard but I feel like I'd be too boring if I acted normal. So I acted dramatic and pretended to be a wizard, and Sugar seems to enjoy that, but now I fear she is pulling away from me."
Solo Confessional: Sugar
"Leonard is really starting to push my buttons with his wizard act. I enjoy the creativity he has but we need to win this!" Sugar said angrily.
Confessionals End
Back with DJ, he was still being chased by the shark as he swam fearfully through the ocean.
"You can do it dude! My grandmother told me if you swim into a shark's mouth, you just keep on swimming!" Geoff called out with a smile.
"That doesn't even make SENSE!" DJ cried out from the water.
"By this time, almost all the teams have reunited and are building their sand chateaus, except for DJ and Geoff." Don narrates.
We then see Dwayne and Junior had now made their sand palace smaller with a giant hill.
"Alright where is he?" Dwayne spoke up, "Little judge! Tiny opinionated gnome!"
Soon Sandy walked over and Dwayne smiled, "Oh hey. Check this out."
Surprisingly Sandy approved of this and Dwayne grabbed the tip he was holding.
"Yes! Grab a speedboat and follow the GPS to the Chill Zone in the Southern tip of ICELAND!" Dwayne read in shock.
We then see Don at the dock of Iceland, "Iceland. The southern tip of this dock is the finish line for this segment. The last team to arrive may be cut from the competition."
We then see Father and Son move out as Kitty takes a look at the tiny sandcastle they made, "Aw. That castle looks so cute."
"Wait! Hold the sand phone, it doesn't have to be big?!" MacArthur asked in shock.
"New plan! It doesn't have to be sha-big!" Lightning told Cameron before destroying the castle they were already working on much to the bubble boy's exasperation.
We then see Dwayne trying to start one of the boats but it was failing to do so.
"Come on. Let's just grab a different boat." Junior told his dad.
"Aw come on." Dwayne smiled reassuringly as he walked over to the motor and opened the engine to look at the inside of it, "You just got to adjust the… uh…"
Confessional: Father and Son
"This is like the time you tried to attach a bell to my bike. When you were done, the wheels were just gone." Junior said in annoyance.
"It was a Swedish bell, very tricky instructions, had to take the whole bike apart." Dwayne clarified in denial before asking, "Hey, wasn't that the summer where you walked all the time?"
"Yep." Junior said flatly.
Confessional Ends
Dwayne soon ran over to a new boat with Junior as he ranted, "I cannot believe the first two boats we picked were broken."
"You have to turn the key and then push the start button." Junior explained as he did just that much to Dwayne's surprise, "Huh, must be one of those Swedish boats. Hey it's time I give this a…"
Junior then began to drive the boat, whether intentionally ignoring his father or not is left to interpretation.
Back on the beach, Geoff smiled as he finally saw DJ, or DJ's legs as he walked onto the beach, with the shark clomped onto his upper body. He soon laid down, allowing the shark to spit him out and land on the ground.
"Ugh… Why?" DJ groaned in frustration as he held up the tip.
Meanwhile, more and more tips were being given to other teams such as the Ice Dancers and Fashion Bloggers as they claimed their speedboats and zoomed across the water.
As such, Devin and Carrie were trying to start the boat themselves with Devin driving, much to their relief, it ended up doing so as they sped off along with the Cadets.
We then see Lightning jump onto the speedboat with Cameron as he began to start the boat, unfortunately Cameron was still standing on the boat so he fell right off the boat. Lightning did not seem to notice though.
"Lightning!" Cameron called out in fear as he stayed afloat in the water.
"Haha! The Opposites are gonna win! Woohoo!" Lightning cheered victoriously before smiling behind him, "Right Cameron?"
His eyes widened as he noticed Cameron was no longer in the boat with him.
"Sha-(bleep)." Lightning sighed.
The Best Friends themselves have also seemed to run into some trouble as their motor was starting to falter.
"Oh no. We got a problem." Devin said fearfully as the boat slowed down, "Any faster and the motor will give out, guess we gotta stay slow and steady."
The Cadets soon passed by as Sanders taunted, "You better have a permit to barbecue that thing!"
We then cut to the Chill Zone where Dwayne and Junior made it to where Don was standing.
"Dwayne, Junior. You're in first place." Don said happily.
"Haha! Yes! We are the best!" Dwayne said happily.
XXX
"More teams head to the boat." Don narrates in the background as the last few teams receive their travel tips.
"But some teams get hung up on details."
XXX
We then see that Ellody and Mary have finished drawing their data on the sand.
"373,996 cubic yards, now to build a perfect model with our data." Ellody said happily.
As if by sheer horrible luck, the ocean soon washed up the entire data from the sand much to Ellody's displeasure, "OUR DATA!"
"We'll have to wing it." Mary stated factually.
"I never wing!" Ellody gripped Mary's shoulders, "I don't know HOW!"
Meanwhile Jacques and Josee had made it to the Chill Zone and had just heard the news of their placement.
"SECOND! We got silver AGAIN?!" Josee asked furiously to Don before breathing in and out and smiling, "But of course that is not a problem for me."
"I expected more insanity. Glad to see you're keeping things professional." Don smiled in approval.
Confessional: Ice Dancers
As if to prove otherwise, Josee had begun screaming and throwing random things around offscreen while Jacques just read a magazine out of boredom.
"I expected a lot worse. Not gonna lie." Jacques shrugged uncaringly.
Confessional Ends
We then see the Fashion Bloggers had made it to the Chill Zone. "Tom and Jen, you made it to the top three." Don smiled which caused the two to squeal.
"Is what I would say if you traveled here by train as instructed instead of a yacht." Don smirked, "Twenty minute penalty."
"Whatevs." Tom shrugged, "We rode a yacht."
"And partied on a yacht with a prince. You so wish you were us." Jen smirked as she bragged.
"Yes, we'll let your placement in this leg determine that." Don rolled his eyes unamused, "And here comes the actual third place team."
Soon Noah and Cody ran to the Carpet of Completion as Don congratulated them, "Congratulations Reality TV Pros, you're in third."
"Yes!" Cody cheered enthusiastically, "We actually made the top three!"
"I'll admit, I'm pleasantly surprised." Noah smirked nonchalantly.
Soon another team arrived at the carpet and it was the Cadets.
"Fourth."
The two high-fived at this.
Meanwhile Geoff and DJ had finally finished their sandcastle but DJ looked around fearfully.
"Are we in last?!" DJ asked in horror.
"Oh crap. We gotta run!" Geoff told his friend as they immediately headed for the boats.
However, Ellody soon popped up from behind her sandcastle in confusion, "Did you hear something?"
"No. You need to focus." Mary reminded her sternly.
"Of course." Ellody sighed.
Back at the Chill Zone, Don began calling out more teams for finishing.
"Fifth." He told the Fashion Bloggers who were no longer penalized.
We then see Geoff and DJ grab one of the boats and drive off and about the same time Lightning was grabbing Cameron from the water in his boat and sitting him down on the boat.
More and more teams reached the Chill Zone as Don called out the placements. First were the Daters.
"Sixth."
Then the Goths.
"Seventh."
Sisters.
"Eighth."
We were then interrupted by a pair of tourists walking up to Don, "Who are you? I highly doubt you are one of the teams. Even I am certain of that." He said sternly.
Mother and Daughter.
"Ninth."
Magical Misfits.
"Tenth."
The Adversity Twins
"Eleventh."
Rockers.
"Twelfth."
Back in the ocean we see that Devin and Carrie's boat was slowing down more and more.
"Looks like we might be heading home." Devin sighed, "It's so unfair that a faulty motor is what's screwing us over and not something we did wrong. We're a good team."
"Yeah. We are." Carrie spoke fondly.
Back with the Best Bros, their boat was speeding throughout the ocean much to Geoff's excitement and DJ's fear.
"Do we have to go this fast?" DJ asked fearfully.
"We gotta avoid last place somehow right?" Geoff asked happily, "Besides, what could go wrong?"
Soon the motor opened up and showed that it was smoking and sparking as the boat slowed down.
"Aw man, I never should've let myself get eaten by that shark. Now we're gonna lose because of me." DJ facepalmed himself sadly.
"Hey. I screwed up too." Geoff said sternly, "I'm the one who let the motor go dry. I just gotta get us outta this mess."
"With what?" DJ scoffed in annoyance.
"Uh… I'm not too sure yet." Geoff smiled nervously.
We then see Lightning sweating profusely as he looked out in the watery distance, "Come on come on come on. Lightning can't lose this. I need that million."
"You mean WE need that million." Cameron corrected him before Lightning looked at him flatly.
"Oh… right." Cameron smiled sheepishly, "I won Total Drama Revenge Of The Island."
Lightning smiles as he notices the Best Bros' boat, "Hey look! Another team's stalled. We still can salvage this."
Lightning sped up the boat and passed the Best Bros, "Sha-bye bye suckers!" He laughed mockingly.
"Oh that's it." Geoff said angrily, "I'm not letting us lose now."
Geoff then took a look at the engine and muttered, "Okay, so what happens if I-"
He then touched a stray wire which boosted the boat forward.
"Whoa. We sped up!" DJ smiled happily.
"Yeah, but only a little." Geoff said with an upset tone, "I guess I gotta keep touching the wire."
"Uh… that isn't really…" DJ began before Geoff touched the wire and got himself electrocuted more as the boat began heading forward once again and catching up to the Opposites.
"Geoff and DJ are catching up!" Cameron cried out in shock.
"Not for long!" Lightning said sternly before speeding up the boat.
We then see the Best Friends ahead as Carrie noticed the Chill Zone in Iceland just ahead.
"There's Iceland and the Chill Zone. We're gonna make it!" Carrie smiled brightly.
Back with the racing duo, they all noticed Iceland as just ahead.
"There it is!" Cameron called out with a happy gasp.
Soon the last three teams were in a tightly knit race to the dock, all with smiles on their faces except for a dazed Geoff.
We then see Don talking to someone offscreen at the docks, "The Chill Zone could use a sofa is all I'm saying and-" he then noticed the last teams, "Oh. Here they come?"
Devin and Carrie were first to get on the dock and reach the carpet.
"Best Friends, you get thirteenth." Don smiled at them.
"Yes!" Devin and Carrie both cheered as Lightning immediately skidded onto the carpet carrying Cameron.
"We made it." Lightning panted as he dropped Cameron.
"Yep. You're Team Number Fourteen." Don smirked teasingly.
"Y'know what, Lightning will take it." Lightning shrugged, clearly tired as Cameron stood up, "Uh… we should probably go." The bubble boy told his partner before they walked off.
"Wait? They're fourteenth?" DJ asked curiously as he led a electrocuted Geoff to the Chill Zone, "But there are sixteen teams left."
"Exactly." Don nodded, "Which is why you two are second to last place aka not out of the race."
DJ smiled as he sighed in relief, "Thank goodness."
He then turned to Geoff who still had a paralyzed look on his face, "Yo Geoff. We're safe from elimination, isn't that great?" He said brightly before noticing Geoff was practically unresponsive much to his worry.
"Oh boy." DJ gulped.
We then cut to the Geniuses still building a sandcastle when Don's voice was heard from above, "Ahoy my little Geniuses. I'm afraid the other teams already made it to the Chill Zone. You are eliminated. I'm in a helicopter, this is so cool."
Farewell Speech: The Geniuses
"How ironic. Our strength in master plans was also our downfall." Ellody admits in shock.
"That just proves how flawed this show is. I suppose we played our part." Mary shrugged.
The two then walked into the sunset as Ellody spoke up, "I suppose Geniuses aren't as smart as they think."
The two immediately burst out laughing at this claim.
"You told a joke. How wonderful." Mary laughed.
Current Rankings: Father and Son, Ice Dancers, Reality TV Pros, Cadets, Fashion Bloggers, Daters, Goths, Sisters, Mother and Daughter, Magical Misfits, Adversity Twins, Rockers, Best Friends, Opposites, Best Bros
Elimination Order: Vegans, Tennis Rivals, Geniuses
Author's Note: To the surprise of absolutely no one, the Geniuses have fallen next. As Mary said, they played their part as fodder contestants and now they're out of here. I took out the Father and Son's penalty because let's be real, that penalty was absolutely STUPID and was just an excuse to give the Ice Dancers first place but here, they shall sulk in silver a little more.
As for Cameron and Lightning being close to elimination here, I'm setting up an arc with these two and I figured what Lightning did should set up their story well.
