"Previously on Total Drama World Tour," Chris recapped, "London, England, home to royalty, history and some very hard buses. CRUNCH! Here, Sol and Courtney went through a painful growing period. We said a surprise hello to Duncan and a sad goodbye to Greg. And last but not least, Gwen found herself enjoying a steamy private moment with Duncan, that wasn't completely private. It's like someone broke the lock on the bathroom door on purpose just so this would happen. But who's got two thumbs and would have done that?" He pointed to himself. "We've got nine competitors left and five million dollars on the line. Whose game is getting old and who's strong enough to grab the gold? Find out right now on Total...Drama...World Tour! Opa!"
"Oh, now that is just embarrassing," Chef commented.

In first class, Samey and Trent were enjoying a facial. "Oh, he looks so good," Courtney sighed as she talked to Courtney. "Doesn't he look good?"
"He looks great," Gwen nervously answered. "I'm so happy. Happy for you!"
"Don't get me wrong; he's not perfect. I made a little list of things that need to change." Courtney undid a piece of paper that spread across her and Gwen. "But once I change these forty-seven things about him," Courtney explained, "He will be perfect."
Confessional: Gwen (Team Amazon)
"Ah, I feel so awful right now! Just when things are great with Trent and I became friend-ish with Courtney, I kissed Duncan! I'm a horrible person! If it happens again, I'll tell them. Wait, why am I thinking 'again'?! Horrible person!"
Confessional: Courtney (Team Amazon)
"It's so nice to have a girl to talk to, especially now that Duncan's back. Gwen probably still has a crush on him, who wouldn't? But she also likes her teeth...a lot."

"Can you imagine if you, me and Duncan end up in the Final Three?" Courtney asked Gwen.
"That would be crazy," Gwen replied as she twiddled her fingers.
"Just you, me and my boyfriend. What do you think Chris would do to turn us against each other?"
"I'd rather not guess. I...really don't want to."
"Is everything okay, Gwen?" Trent asked as he noticed her teary tone.
"Yeah," Samey agreed as she looked over, "You sound kinda...miserable."
"I'm sure nothing a cup of coffee can't fix," Gwen nervously assured them. She walked over to the coffee pot but found it bone-dry. "Sorry, Gwen," Lucas yawned as he came to her. "It was the only stuff strong enough to keep myself up."
"Why?" Gwen asked. Lucas pointed to Phoebe, who was looking over Courtney's list. "'Stuff to Fix With Duncan'," she read. "'One, remove piercings from nose. Two, make him listen to classical music instead of that grunge garbage. Three-' Courtney, you're gonna change Duncan like this? You should like him how he is aleady, not this changing thingie!"
"Duncan's already great," Courtney argued as she snatched the paper back. "This is just improving that to perfection."
"So, you're saying you don't like the Old Duncan, so you're making a New Duncan? How does that make any sense?! You either like him as is or you don't like him at all! You can't just change him!"
"Uh, you okay?" Samey nervously asked as she and the others looked in shock.
"Just...tired. Sleep...won't..." Phoebe fell over on the couch and started to snore as she dozed off. "She doesn't even look like she got two hours of sleep," Samey noted.
"How come?" Courtney wondered. They saw Phoebe stirring in her sleep. "N-no!" she cried out. "AHH!" She rolled over. "Hang on!" Lucas warned as he dove to catch her before she fell. She ended up landing on his back, squishing him. "Huh?" Phoebe slurred as she woke up.
"That's the ninth time in as many hours," Lucas muffled.
In loser class, Duncan was sleeping while Sol was muttering as he read a book. He looked up and shot a glare at Topher, who was busy combing his hair.
Confessional: Sol (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"That...that snake is behind Greg getting kicked off yesterday; I know it! I didn't vote for him, Sam wouldn't turn on him, and no way did Greg vote for himself. If I'm gonna get rid of him, the only action is to ally with Sam. He must be as ticked off at Topher as I am, if not more."
End Confessional
Sam had a terrified look at he stared at Duncan, which didn't go unnoticed. "Something wrong?" Topher asked him as he sat down. "Maybe I can help."
"No, thank you," Sam argued. "I'd rather you stay out."
"Yeah," Sol agreed as he pushed Topher away. "Get lost!" He glared at Topher as he walked off. He noticed Sam's fearful expression had returned. "What's up?" Sol asked.
"I...I saw something," Sam gulped. Just then, Duncan gave yawn as he woke up. "Oh, wow, that was a deep sleep," he said. "The sleep of the dead. Ha, ha. You know what I mean, Sam? Dead!" Sam shrank up at his words. "If he kills you," Sol offered, "I could bring you back, even though I haven't got much knowledge in necromancy."
"Uh, thanks?" Sam replied. Unknown to them, Topher had overheard them from the hallway.
Confessional: Duncan (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"Sam saw me and Gwen kissing, and now he's all freaked out. But I think he knows better than to talk about it. He better know better!"
Confessional: Sam (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"Man, I just can't stand cheaters! I'd never betray Dakota like that. Everyone should know how bad Duncan and Gwen are." He paused a moment. "But I also like the bones in my body."
Confessional: Topher (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"Seems like there's tension between Sam and Duncan. I need to find out what it is exactly and use it to my advantage."

"Prepare yourselves for challenges of an amateur caliber," Chris announced as the two teams gathered in loser class. "Because we're recreating the original Olympics. And we're heading to the birthplace of the Olympics right now in..."
"Greece," Courtney answered.
"Atlantis?" Phoebe wondered.
"Mount Olympus," Sam put in.
"Wrong," Chris told them, "Fictional and no. We're going to Rome, Italy!"
"Cool!" Sol exclaimed. "Tiramisu and torta de riso sounds heavenly to try!"
"But Courtney's right," Topher put in. "The Olympics originated in Greece."
"No," Chris corrected, "They-"
"Greece," Gwen cut off. "They're right." Chris read over some papers. "I screwed up, didn't I?" Lucas asked with a yawn. "I'll get info on Greece." As he walked off, he stumbled over his feet, making him roll off and crash into a supply closet. "Give me a good reason why you're not being dumped out of this plane," Chris bitterly told the intern.
"Complain to Chef," Lucas moaned as he pulled a mop off his head. "I'm just doing my job." A bottle of bleach clonked him on the head, spilling the contents in his eyes. "MY EYES!" he screamed as he ran off to the bathrooms. Chris just rolled his eyes. "Greece it is," he decided as he walked off. "Chef, slight change of plans."
"Poor Lucas," Samey said. "I hope he's okay. But Team Amazon isn't gonna hold back, boys!"
"Same here," Sol countered. "There's no way us athletes will lose an Olympic challenge to you girls."
"Hey!" Trent protested. "What am I, chopped liver?"
"Hope you look good in silver," Samey boasted. "I'm great in gold."
"I can lend you a gold medal since I'll have them all," Sol told her. As they talked, Duncan gave Gwen a warm smile, which Gwen replied with a nervous wave. She noticed Courtney glaring at her. "Hey," Gwen said. As the others walked off, Courtney held her back. "What was that?" she inquired.
"What was what?" Gwen asked.
"You were staring at Duncan."
"Oh, I was just, uh, you've really got to do something about that mohawk."
"That was number seven on the list of things to change, but now I kind of like it. Love does funny things." Courtney walked off. "Oh, yeah," Gwen nervously agreed as she rubbed her arm. "Love is hysterical." She face-palmed. The plane soon arrived in Greece. "Welcome to the Acropolis in Athens, Greece," Chris announced as he read over some papers, "Home to many of the very first Olympians who, as I have been informed, competed naked."
"If we have to," Sam sighed as he started to pull down his pants.
"No, no, no! That was just a quirky fact, not an order. There's no need to be a hundred percent accurate. Stay dressed. Very dressed. We only have to resort to nudity if there's a tiebreaker. Intern, put these papers back, would ya?"
"I hope Chris didn't do anything bad to Lucas," Trent whispered to Samey.
"Me, too," Samey agreed. The duo had a look of surprise as they saw Lucas walking out, though now he was dressed like a cherub, with a matching pink mask to match. Sol couldn't help but laugh. "Man, that is just hilarious!" he exclaimed as he wiped away a tear.
"It was Chris's stupid idea," Lucas grumbled. "He suggested dressing like an Olympic god to 'get in the spirit'. Wouldn't you know he picked Eros?"
"Like, Cupid?" Trent reasoned.
"The same." Lucas shot a glare at Sol, who kept laughing. "Oh, ha, ha," he scoffed. He was pushed aside by Chris. "Today, we're gonna do things a bit differently," Chris explained. "Since Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot is down a man and Team Amazon is an all-girl team..."
"I'm right here!" Trent called out with annoyance.
"In order to make things fair, all today's challenges will be one-on-one matches. Every victory gets you a gold medal. The team with the most golds wins first-class tickets to our next destination. Second place wins a brutal elimination ceremony."
"And silver medals, right?" Sam asked. "Second place gets silver?"
"There are no silver medals. Just gold."
"But at the Olympics-"
"Just gold. That's it."
Confessional: Sam (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"After I played this Olympic game on my Swii, I fell in love with the Olympics. I even fantasized about being an Olympian. Standing proudly on that podium with my head held high as I listened to the national anthem..." His voice cracked a little. "Of some other country, bringing home another silver medal for Canada." He wiped away a tear.

"Our first historical event is a Grecian scavenger hunt," Chris explained. "The inside of the Odium of Pericles is filled with maze-like rows of huge columns. Players must search through this ancient forest of columns and return with the Grecian treasure that awaits you inside. First one to do so takes the gold. So, who's going in?"
"Me," Gwen and Duncan said as they walked up.
"What?" Gwen, Duncan, Courtney and Trent gasped simultaneously.
"Gwen versus Duncan it is," Chris decided.
"Wow," Courtney nervously put in, "That is so...fun."
"Yeah," Trent added, "Real fun." Gwen had a concerned look while Topher just looked puzzled.
Confessional: Topher (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"Now Gwen and Duncan are tense? Man, this is just so baffling!" He sighed. "If I keep my patience, maybe the answers will come to me."
Confessional: Gwen (Team Amazon)
"I know Trent's just putting on a civil face around Duncan. It's no secret that he can't stand him, which makes the pressure all the more awful. The moment Trent finds out about the kiss, he'll go balistic! Still, maybe I should tell him about what happened. He is my boyfriend, after all."
End Confessionals
"What's the big deal?" Duncan asked Chris. "Just let someone else do this event."
"My decision is final, Duncan," Chris declared. Duncan muttered something under his breath. "Excuse me?" Chris inquired.
"I didn't say anything," Duncan told him.
"And you won't say anything else until the Olympics are over. Between now and then, you can either zip it or sing it. That'll begin to make up for the songs you've missed while you were in breach of your contract, and if you speak instead of singing, you'll earn a lash from Chef's Olympic towel."
"Ooh, a towel. I'm so scared."
"You should be. Exhibit A." Chef, now dressed as a Roman soldier, whipped a towel at Duncan. "OW!" Duncan yelled out.
"Shucks," Chris commented, "Really should've sung that 'ow', bro." Chef whipped his towel again. "OW!" Duncan sang in a high voice.
"Much better," Chris said. He passed Duncan and Gwen two trash can lids. "Uh, why do we need these?" Gwen wondered.
"These authentic Spartan shields will help you in your treasure hunt," Chris explained, "For the treasure you seek is tied to an Erymanthian boar." A bear with tusks tied to its mouth was shown wearing a gold medal. "Good luck to you both," Chris told the duo. "Duncan, Chef will be following you, so be sure to sing it if you gotta say it. Chef, sound the Spartan battle horn." Chef blew a kazoo. "That's the Spartan battle horn?" Chris groaned. "For reals? Just go already. The rest of you, follow me."
"We're not going to stay...and watch...closely...at all times?" Courtney wondered.
"Nope," Chris answered. "Time to flip channels, just like the real Olympics." The group left, though Courtney still had a worried look.
"Pancration is an ancient Greek martial art with no rules," Chris told the rest of the teens. "Last man standing wins the gold."
"As the strongest Amazon," Courtney voiced out, "I volunteer to fight for our team."
"Hang on," Trent argued as he stepped up, "I want to put in an effort, too. I'll do it." Courtney just gave a laugh. "As I was saying-" she continued.
"What, you think I can't do it?" Trent asked with some irritation.
"You're as strong as paper. I won't let you blow it."
"Care to prove it?"
"Gladly." Phoebe had to step in between Trent and Courtney. "Um, I need someone from Team I Am Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot to get involved here," Chris spoke up. "Anyone?" Topher just stepped away, making it look like Sol and Sam had volunteered. "Great," Sol grumbled. "You're as much a coward as you are a cheating, lying scumbag."
"We can handle them," Sam assured him. "We've got better unity than those two challengers."
"All I can say is best of luck," Topher cheered. He winked as he flashed a smile towards Samey, making her smile. Sol's face flushed red with anger as he saw the exchange. "I'M GONNA DESTROY YOU!" he shouted.
"That's the spirit!" Sam rallied. "RAHHH!"
"Sold!" Chris announced. "Into the ring with all of you."
"My first Olympics. This is so cool!" Sam noticed Trent charging at him. He pulled out a game controller with a long cord and threw it, and Trent was soon wrapped up like a cocoon. "Hey!" Trent cried out as he fell to the ground.
"I hope Gwen is doing better than we are," Courtney hoped.
"I'll, um, go," Phoee offered. Over in another area, the tusked bear was whacking Duncan with its paws, knocking him over. "AH!" Duncan screamed as the bear started to crush his spine. "Gwen, I-" Phoebe began as she walked towards the duo when she noticed the bear. "AHHHH! It's a b-b-b-b-" The bear held up a sign that had a bear drawing and Ursus Horribilis underneath it. "Yes, that," Phoebe squeaked. She shrieked as she dashed off, with the bear chasing her. "Way to help me, Super Dud," Duncan joked. Chef whacked him with his towel. "OW!"
"Pin them already!" Topher told his teammates.
"Easier said than done," Sol choked out as Trent, now as an anaconda, wrapped around his neck. Meanwhile, Sam was trying to duck at Courtney's punches. "Try, try, try as they might," Samey cheered, "But Amazons will knock out the boy's lights!"
"A little help?" Sol squeaked out before falling over.
"Hurry up and pin him!" Courtney told Trent after he changed back. Sol noticed a small pile of dirt on the ground. "Oh, no, you don't!" he countered as he scooped it up. He tossed it at Trent, effectively blinding him. "I can't see!" he cried out as he staggered about.
"Can't catch me!" Sol taunted. He began to run away from Trent. Meanwhile, Courtney had knocked Sam down with a punch. "RAWR!" she screamed. She then saw Sol coming up to her. "Yoo-hoo!" he shouted. "Trent!" Trent heard his voice and blindly charged at him. However, Sol ducked away at the last minute, and Trent ended up tackling Courtney. "Shouldn't they be fighting us?" Sam wondered.
"Shh," Sol advised as he helped the gamer to his feet. "Just watch."
"I've...got you, Sol," Trent, still blinded by the sand, breathed out as he and Courtney were in a chokehold.
"Trent!" Courtney scolded. "Same...team!"
"Ah!" Sol put in. "You're...choking me out!" He and Sam had to stifle a laugh. "How could a guy as weak as Gwen beat me?"
"What?!" Trent cried out. "That's IT!" He and Courtney tightened their grip, but they soon passed out. Sam and Sol walked over and stood over them. "That's two gold for Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot!" Chris announced.
"Two?" Courtney groaned.
"Hey, it was supposed to be a one-on-one challenge, but you guys turned it into a team event."
"Oh, yeah!" Sol and Sam cheered.
"Yay, Amazons," Samey moaned as she waved a white flag.
"What did I miss?" Phoebe breathlessly asked as she returned.
"In a world where Sol and Sam can win an Olympic gold medal," Chris narrated, "Do the Amazons really stand a chance? Find out when we come back on Total...Drama..."
"World Tour!" Chris and Sam exclaimed at the same time.

"Here, boar, boar, boar," Gwen nervously called out. She bumped into Duncan. The two stammered for a moment before sighing. Ding-ding! "Time for a song," Chris announced. "Please continue, this time with music. Gwen, although this is a duet, only Duncan has to sing." Lucas began to play a melody on a bouzouki. "I know what you're thinking," Duncan began. "I'm thinking it, too."
"I'm not sure what you're thinking," Gwen replied, "So maybe that's true."
"I don't know what happened, but I have no regrets."
"For real? Or because you-know-who don't know yet?" Unknown to them, Topher was sneaking around and listening in. "Oh, it's just between us," Duncan sang.
"Not exactly," Gwen countered, "Someone made a fuss." They walked by a statue of Sam as Atlas. "They weren't meant to see," Duncan sang, "But that locked door couldn't secure our privacy!"
"Okay," Trent sighed, "I'll admit that Duncan has good vocals."
"I know," Courtney replied. "I can't make out the lyrics, though. Speak up!"
"Shh!" Chris hushed.
"Fine, let's do it," Duncan continued as he and Gwen stood near a statue of Courtney as Terpsichore and Trent as Apollo. "Let's clear the air!"
"Save it for later," Gwen warned, "Look out for that bear!" The tusked bear began beating Duncan up. "The pain! The pain!" he cried out. "Too much to explain!"
"We've gotta stop what we're doing," Gwen vocalized, "Cause this is just insane!"
"The boar-bear's got me, and that is seriously lame." Gwen grabbed the medal off the bear. "Thanks, Mister Boar-Bear," she finished, "I guess I win this game!"
"Nice one, Gwen," Courtney told her as she came back.
"Thanks."
"Is Duncan okay? How long were you guys alone together before we got here?"
"Next event," Chris announced. "Moving on."
"What about Duncan? Shouldn't we help him?"
"Chef will do that. Moving on!" Courtney just sighed. "I'm sure he'll be fine," Trent assured her. "The guy's as tough and stubborn as a bulldog. Though I'm just comparing one kind of dog to another."
"Yeah, yeah," Gwen moaned as she walked past without a glance, much to Trent's concern.
Confessional: Trent (Team Amazon)
"What is up with Gwen? Usually she scolds me or elbows me if I say something bad about Duncan, but this time she didn't even look at me. A part of me is a little grateful I didn't get an earful, but it's more concerning than anything. I hope she can tell me what's amiss."
End Confessional
"Welcome to the hurdles event," Chris announced, "The ultimate test of speed and flexibility. Players must leap higher and higher over these hurdles as they race for the finish line. First one across wins the gold. And since Samey and Topher are the only two yet to compete, they'll be going head-to-head."
"What about-?" Courtney began but she stopped herself when she noticed Phoebe sprawled out on the ground as she snoozed. "Uh, never mind. Samey and Topher it is."
"Don't expect me to go easy," Samey teased. "As a cheerleader, I'm fast and flexible."
"If we lose," Sam put in, "We're gonna vote out the guy that didn't win a medal." Topher just nudged him aside. "I won't go easy, either," he warned Samey. "Just watch." He effortlessly stood on his arms and arched his legs before doing a flip and landing on his feet, to everyone's shock. "Showoff," Sol grumbled.
Confessional: Gwen (Team Amazon)
"No man should be that flexible."
End Confessional
"On your mark," Chris began as Samey and Topher stood at the starting line, "Get set." He blew his air horn, and the duo started off, jumping the hurdles on the way. "I thought you said you weren't gonna go easy on me," Topher teased as he gained some distance.
"Sam, get ready," Sol advised him as he put on a pair of goggles. "That oily weasel's gonna learn revenge is best served aux tomates." He pulled out a tomato and a slingshot out of his pocket. "Almost..." he murmured as he aimed it towards Topher. "Fire!"
"Victory is-" Topher rallied when he was knocked back by a tomato to the face. Samey gave a quiet gasp as she saw him lying near a hurdle. "Go!" the rest of Team Amazon cheered, making Samey pick up the pace. She soon crossed the finish line first. "Yes!" she cheered.
"A gold for the Amazons," Chris announced. Team Amazon gave another cheer. "Meh," Sol shrugged as he removed his goggles.
Duncan was resting on the ground when he noticed something licking his mohawk. He screamed as he ran away from the tusked bear, which was, thankfully, leashed onto a huge stone. "What the-?" Duncan wondered when he was whacked with Chef's towel. "Dude! Is it over?" Chef nodded yes. "So I should get back to my team," Duncan sang. "Know where the exit is?" Chef nodded no. "Perfect."
"Seriously, where is Duncan?" Courtney demanded.
"Duncan will join us as soon as he can," Chris informed her, "You know, if he's still alive."
"'If'?!" Gwen voiced out. "What does that mean?!"
"Can we focus on the game, please? It's time for the dreaded tiebreaker!"
"One sec, Chris," Courtney cut in. She turned to Gwen. "You sounded really concerned there," she pointed out.
"Well, I, um, uh," Gwen nervously stammered.
"Sue her for having some compassion," Trent scolded as he pushed Gwen away from everyone else. "Even if he's as great as snail mucus." He noticed Gwen still had a depressed look. "Okay, there is definitely some sort of tension with you," Trent pointed out. "What's up?" Gwen sighed. "Trent," she admitted, "I...have a confession to make. I-"
"Hello, Gwen," Topher cut in as he stepped between the duo. "I wanted to congratulate you on your win against that boar-bear thing. Well done."
"Um, thanks?"
"Hang on, Gothie," Sol warned as he and Sam came over. "I wouldn't trust a word out of this weasel."
"He was just being a good sport about the Amazons' wins," Trent informed him.
"Are you sure that was all he was doing?" Gwen noticed Sam wasn't looking her in the eye, making her hang her head in shame. "Let's go," she told Trent as they went back to their team. Sol eyed Topher as he and Sam followed the duo.
Confessional: Topher (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"I put two and two together after I heard Gwen and Duncan's little 'duet'. But if Gwen starts talking to Trent, then the drama won't be as intense. That's where Sam finally comes into play. And the best part is I don't have to convince him to blurt it out. Either his conscience or his buddy Solstice will do the swaying for me."
End Confessional
"What's that?" Sol wondered as Lucas wheeled in two sets of feathered wings.
"Attention, please!" Chris told them. "Chef spent over one hour building two sets of wings out of wax and the feathers we find in the plane's engines. One member from each team must strap on the wings and take flight all the way up there." He pointed to a medal hanging high up on a hook. "Whoever snags the gold medal out of the sky wins the Olympics and first class passage for their team."
"Sounds kinda dangerous," Samey commented.
"Not at all." The wings suddenly fell apart. "I'll fix it," Lucas told Chris. He took a leaf blower and sucked all the feathers up. "We're gonna need some more wax," Chris noted. "So, who's going up?"
"I think I'm the best option for the tiebreaker," Trent volunteered.
"Like how you were best at wrestling?" Courtney countered.
"I have to side with Trent on this," Samey put in. "Out of all of us, he's got experience. And we sure aren't putting our hero up in the air." She pointed to Phoebe, in a restless sleep again. "Okay, that's starting to become a serious issue," Courtney said.
"Team Me?" Chris asked. "Super Hot Me? Who's going?"
"Me, me!" Sam exclaimed. "I really want to see what it's like to fly!"
"And since it's a tiebreaker, before you two strap on your wings, please slip into these authentic Spartan battle costumes." A moment later, Sam and Trent were dressed in the costumes and wings. "You two look ridiculous," Sol scoffed. "And besides, those aren't authen-"
"Shh," Samey warned him as she pinched his mouth shut. "Doesn't matter."
"Thanks for doing this for the Amazons," Gwen told Trent as she walked over.
"Anything for you, Gwen," Trent happily replied. "And the Amazons, too." Gwen couldn't help but giggle. "That's one of the many things I like about you," she told him. "You're very loyal, even if it's to a fault." Sam grimmanced at the sight.
Confessional: Sam (Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot)
"Forget what I said earlier. I don't care if Duncan breaks every bone in my body; I am not going to just stay silent about this anymore!"
End Confessional
"Why should you talk about loyalty?" Sam snapped at Gwen. "After what you and Duncan did to Trent and Courtney?" Courtney gave a gasp as she glared at Gwen. Lucas readied a flaming marshmallow on a bow and arrow. "On your marks..." Chris began.
"Dude, what are you even talking about?" Trent asked Sam.
"Yes," Topher smugly agreed. "We all want clarification. And don't forget to speak loud and clear." Sam's face grew serious. "I saw Duncan and Gwen kiss!" he confessed.
"WHAT?!" Courtney cried out.
"No!" Trent protested. "You're lying!"
"It's the truth," Sam informed them. "They kissed right in the confessional. Saw it with my own eyes." Courtney growled at Gwen, who backed away with worry. "Get set..." Chris continued.
"How could you?!" Courtney scolded as Samey held her back. "I thought we were friend-ish! I hate you! I HATE YOU!"
"Go!" Chris announced as Lucas shot the arrow upward. Sam flapped his wings and began his ascent while Trent was left stunned. "Duncan?" he breathed out. "Duncan?!"
"You called?" Duncan asked as he skid over. "Ha! Nice bikini!" Trent went blank before sucker-punching Duncan in the eye. "Sing it!" Chef scolded as he whacked the delinquent with a towel.
"Man, that has to burn," Lucas commented as he watched the scene. Unknown to him, the flaming arrow landed in his pants. "Speaking of burns," Samey wearily advised as she noticed the smoke, "Lucas, you don't notice it?"
"Notice what?" Lucas sniffed. "What's cooking?" He widened his eyes as he finally felt the burns. "AHHHHH!" he screamed as he started to run around in a panic. "Llame a los bomberos! Mis bolas estan ardiendo!"
"Now I remember why I haven't fired you," Chris chuckled. Sol also joined in the laughter. "What's so funny?" Phoebe groaned as she got to her feet.
"Nothing," Samey sternly replied as she glared at Sol. "Trent, hurry up and fly!"
"Trent," Courtney told him, "Stay where you are."
"But we'll lose." Samey and Phoebe noticed Courtney glaring at Gwen. "Oh," Samey realized. "Never mind what I said, Trent."
"You..." Courtney seethed as she pointed at Gwen, "Are so e-lim-i-na-ted!"
"She's got my vote."
"Agreed," Phoebe put in. Gwen started to tear up, catching Trent's attention. He started to flap his wings.
Confessional: Trent (Team Amazon)
"There's no way I'm letting that harpy boot Gwen! Besides, Sam could've just made that up to throw us off our game. Gwen wouldn't kiss that punk...would she?"
End Confessional
Sam and Trent were closing in on the medal, though their feathers were falling off. "They're starting to molt!" Sol gasped. "Hurry!"
"Come on, Trent," Gwen hoped.
"You don't get to cheer!" Courtney scolded. Sam was almost at the medal when all the feathers came off. "NO!" he shouted as he plummeted to the ground.
"Nasty!" Chris commented. Trent was about to grab the medal when his wings started to come apart. He managed to grab it with his teeth before falling. "I wonder if Trent remembers he can naturally fly," Lucas wondered after extinguishing the fire in his clothes. He was soon squashed when Trent landed on him. "Guess not," Lucas groaned.
"Amazons win!" Chris announced. "And the losers are heading back to the elimination room for the second time in a row."
"Yes!" Gwen cheered. Courtney just slapped her away. That night in first class, Samey was patching up Lucas. "Thanks for the support back there," he told her.
"Sure thing," Samey replied. "I may not, like, love you, but I don't want to see you get tormented like that. Hey, where's Trent at?"
"If I had to guess, he's probably in denial of what happened today. I'd act the same in his shoes." The duo noticed Courtney crying her eyes out while Phoebe comforted her. "There, there," Phoebe yawned. "I'm sure we'll..." She yawned again. "Figure out..." She dozed off again. "Uh, Phoebe?" Samey asked. "Phoebe!" Phoebe jolted awake. "I'm up, Major Gamboge!" she shouted. Gwen just looked on with a guilty look.
Confessional: Trent (Team Amazon)
"No doubt about it; Team Chris will go and vote out Duncan. Between losing his challenge and that...that rumor Sam spread, it's a guarantee. Is it wrong to say I wanna see that?"
Confessional: Gwen (Team Amazon)
"I'll admit I enjoyed that kiss...much more than I should. But was it worth it? I screwed things up with Trent, I'm not gonna last much longer in the competition, and Duncan's probably getting eliminated right now." She gasped as she ran out the door.

Everyone stamped a passport.

Gwen hid behind a totem pole while she listened in to the elimination. Unknown to her, Trent was on top of the totem pole as he watched while disguised as a chipmunk. "So, here we are," Chris began. "Let's look at why. Sam volunteered for and lost the tiebreaker, which is why you're all here. Plus, he got TKO'ed by a girl."
"No, he got TOK'ed by Trent," Sol corrected. "It's not exactly a fair fight."
"Topher blew it in the hurdles, which forced the tiebreaker, which is why you're all here. Plus, he was knocked out because his own teammate sabotaged him with a well-executed tomato launch."
"Don't remind me," Topher grumbled. "I still have seeds in my hair!"
"And Duncan. He lost his first challenge back and managed to ruffle a lot of melted feathers. Plus, if all the girls get eliminated, we have no idea who he'll try to kiss next." Duncan just scoffed. "Your choice is pretty clear," Chris announced. "But today the final choice is mine, and the Drop of Shame will be taken by..." Gwen gave a quiet gasp while Duncan eyed his teammates. "...This parachute!" Chris decided as he tossed the parachute out the door. Duncan gave a sly laugh, much to his teammates' displeasure. "Yes!" Gwen whispered. She noticed Chipmunk-Trent had fallen into her hair. "Trent?"
"That's right," Chris informed Team Chris. "I'm ignoring the vote. As if I'm gonna send Duncan home when the fun's just getting started. Team Chris Is Really Really Ghost Pepper Hot stays as it is...for now. Will Courtney and Gwen patch things up?"
"I HATE YOU!" Courtney yelled out off-screen.
"And who's going for the next drop? Find out right here on Total...Drama...World Tour!"
Bonus clip:
Samey and Lucas were still up as the rest of Team Amazon slept in first class. "It's strange everyone can sleep after what happened today," Samey noted. "Even Phoebe is knocked out cold."
"That's because she is," Lucas sighed. "I had to slip some melatonin in some of her chocolate milk so she could get some rest. It's more of a drugged sleep, but I couldn't think of any other options." The duo saw Phoebe sprawled out on the couch. "I know she needs help," Samey spoke up, "But why are you pitching in?"
"Wouldn't you believe it?" Lucas told her. "Chef ordered me to keep an eye on Phoebe. Why, I have no idea, nor do I have an idea to help the little hero here." Samey thought a moment before realizing something. "When we were in London, Phoebe mentioned having a stuffed penguin she brought with her that she called 'Pete Pengle'," she recalled. "Maybe if we can find it for her..."
"She'll get a sense of comfort," Lucas finished. "But where might it be at?"
"Probably in loser class's luggage section. Phoebe was there more than anybody else."
"Tiempo de busqueda del tesoro!" Samey quickly covered Lucas's mouth when they noticed Phoebe stirring before going back to sleep. "Shh..." they whispered. They tip-toed away towards economy class.
Another eventful episode! So my main focus was the love square of Trent, Gwen, Duncan and Courtney. While Courtney and Duncan are quite similar to canon and Trent's stuck in denial, Gwen is actually feeling more guilty of her actions. How will the four progress?
I also tried to give the others more highlight, like Topher's antagonistic plans, Sol's grudge against him to the point of resorting to sabotage, and Lucas's comedic moments mixed in with his more serious moments, such as in the bonus clip.
Next up is the source of different conspiracies, military defenses and distant relatives of E.T. and Marvin the Martian. Until next time, this is Dunsparce519 saying apolafste kai na echete mia kali mera. (Greek for enjoy and have a good day.)
