Next chapter is back to voting.
The remaining Gophers sat around the fire pit, in low spirits, due to losing three challenges in a row.
Looking up, Heather narrowed her eyes at the approaching Bass team.
"What do you guys want? Come by to rub it in?"
Duncan shrugged innocently. "We got some extra dessert after our tuck-shop party. Thought you might want some."
Gwen raised an eyebrow. "So, what? You're just being. . . nice?"
Courtney raised her hands in surrender. "Okay. Harold's red ants got loose in our cabin, and we need some time to let the raid air out."
Trent attempted to hand Her the plate of green Jell-O, tired of carrying it but she immediately flipped out.
"No!" Courtney shouted knocking the plate on the floor. Seeing the looks she was getting, she tried to play it off.
"I mean. . . no, thanks. I'm good."
Duncan raised an eyebrow. "What? Are you on a diet or something?"
She huffed. "No! I just don't like green Jell-O, okay?"
As everyone took a seat, DJ sat down next to Cody, then jumped up screaming.
"Aah! Sna-a-a-ke!"
Cody glanced down and quirked an eyebrow. "Chill dude. It's just a stick."
"Oh. Aah! Snake!"
Cody picked up the "snake" for him to see.
"No. See? It's the same stick again."
He sighed in relief.
"Sorry for trippin'. Snakes just freak me out."
"I feel ya man. Chickens give me the creeps, dude." Tyler patted him on the back.
Everyone looked at him strangely, Gwen voicing their thoughts.
"You're afraid of chickens?"
"Wow. That's - That's really lame man." Duncan snickered.
(CONFESSIONAL)
Gwen: So, suddenly, everyone's having this big share-fest by the fire. Like, Beth went on and on about how her mortal fear's being covered by bugs. Harold's afraid of ninjas. Even Heather admitted she's afraid of sumo wrestlers.
(End static)
Gwen thought for a moment. "What's my worst fear? I guess being buried alive."
Next was Lindsay.
"Walking through a minefield. . . in heels."
Then Izzy.
"Flying, man! That's some crazy stuff. I would never go up in a plane. Never!"
Geoff.
"I'm scared of hail. It's small but deadly dude."
Bridgette.
"Being left alone in the woods."
Cody tapped his chin in thought.
"Having to defuse a time bomb under pressure."
"I'm not really afraid of anything." Courtney smiled.
Duncan coughed. "Baloney!"
"Oh really? Well, what exactly is your phobia, Mr. Know-it-all?" She glared.
Everyone looked at him expectantly.
"Uh, C-celine Dion music-store standees." Duncan mumbled.
"Ex-squeeze me? I didn't quite get that." Gwen smiled.
Noah smirked. "Dude, did you say 'Celine Dion music-store standees'?"
Duncan covered his face in embarrassment, while Lindsay squealed.
"Ooh, I love Celine Dion! . . . What's a standee?"
Noah answered. "You know that cardboard-cutout thing that stands in the music store."
Duncan growled. "Don't say it dude!"
He ignored him. "Kinda like a life-size, but flat, Celine."
Courtney smirked. "So if we had a cardboard standee right now. . ."
Duncan covered his ears. "Shut up!"
Lowering his hands he pointed accusingly at the others who hadn't confessed.
"W-what about you guys?"
Noah shrugged. "Claustrophobia." He then noticed Courtney rolling her eyes.
"All right Courtney. You're afraid of something. Spit it out." He said.
"Nope - nothing." She smiled.
"That's not what she said last night." Duncan grinned.
"Duncan, did you ever consider that maybe I was just humoring you and your stupid story?" Courtney snapped.
"Sure, sure, whatever helps you sleep at night."
"Shut up!"
Next Morning
Chris stepped into the mess hall and whistled to get everyone's attention.
"Campers. . . your next challenge is a little game I like to call 'Phobia Factor.' Prepare to face your worst fears!"
LeShawna held up a gray sausage with hair all over it. "Worse than this?"
Gwen glanced at it. "We're in trouble."
"Now for our first victims. . . Heather! Meet us all in the theater. It's. . . sumo time!"
Heather spit out the juice she'd been drinking.
"Gwen - you, me, the beach. . . a few tons of sand."
Lindsay spoke up. "Wait. How did they know those were your worst fears?"
Gwen sighed and face palmed, then laid her head on the table.
"Because we told them."
Lindsay glanced at Beth in confusion, Geoff who was comfortingly patting Gwen's back, explained.
"At the campfire last night."
[Flashback]
"What's my worst fear? I guess being buried alive."
[Flashback]
"Wait. They were listening to us?"
Gwen glanced up at her through her bangs.
"It's a reality show, Einstein. They're always listening to us."
"That's like eavesdropping!"
"Chef Hatchet. . . didn't you have a special order for Tyler here today?"
Chef nodded and handed him a whole fried chicken.
[Flashback]
"Chickens give me the creeps, dude."
[Flashback]
Hesitating a moment, he bit the head off; seconds later a live chicken poked its head out.
"Bawk-bawk!"
"Aaaaaaaaah!"
Everyone stood around a large blow-up pool filled with bugs.
DJ puked then fainted.
[Flashback]
"Beth went on and on about how her mortal fear's being covered by bugs."
[Flashback]
Beth shrugged and jumped in, surfacing with a few in her mouth.
Gophers 1, Bass 0
"And Beth sets the bar way up there!"
All the Screaming Gophers cheered.
[Skip]
Izzy rode in a very flimsy plane piloted by Chef, while Harold faced a couple of ninjas, and knocked himself out with his own nunchucks. And LeShawna ran screaming away from a guy dressed as a giant spider.
[Skip]
"Heather stepped up to the plate, scoring the Gophers another point on the board."
As the sumo wrestler ran at her she ducked, causing him to trip over her and fall off-stage.
Gophers 2, Bass 0
[Skip]
"Bridgette began her six hours of solitude in the woods feeling pretty confident."
She glanced around.
"I'm not scared. Six hours out here is nothing."
Looking down she saw a chipmunk chittering at her, and freaked, kicking it like a football.
[Skip]
On the beach, Gwen was lying in a glass box that Chris was shoveling sand onto.
Geoff sat down next to her.
"There's enough air for an hour. You only need to do five minutes."
Chris grinned.
"As long as we decide to dig you up."
Gwen glared.
"Not funny, Chris."
"Sheesh! Take a pill!"
Geoff handed her a walkie-talkie through a slot that he closed shortly after. "I'll be listening the whole time. Just yell for me if you panic, and I'll dig you right up."
"Goodbye, cruel world."
[Skip]
DJ stood next to a tiny little snake. After a few moments of freaking out, he finally picked it up.
Gophers 2, Bass 1
[Skip]
(Back on the beach)
Geoff sat watching the clock count down.
"You still alive in there? Only three more minutes."
Gwen's voice crackled over the radio.
"And then you'll dig me up, right?"
"Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere. I promise."
"I need some kinda distraction. Tell me a story."
"Oh! I got the perfect one! So to celebrate becoming class president, I threw this wicked sick party bruh-"
[Skip]
"Cody, you're up!"
[Flashback]
"Having to defuse a time bomb under pressure."
[Flashback]
Cody and Chris stood next to a ticking garbage bomb.
"All right, Cody. This garbage bomb's going off in exactly 10 minutes. Everything you need to know to defuse it is on the can. If you can't defuse I suggest you run, that's a stink bomb."
[Skip]
"Come on Duncan you can do it." Courtney said.
Duncan, after some hesitation, managed to hug a Celine Dion standee, as Courtney ran up and hugged him in congratulations. Meanwhile Eva fainted when Chris held up a blood pack and needle, pressing on the plunger and sending blood squirting out.
Gophers 2, Bass 2
"Unfortunately, I don't think things are going quite so smoothly for our buddy Geoff."
[Flashback]
"I'm scared of hail. It's small but deadly dude."
[Flashback]
Geoff had just finished telling the story and started to dig Gwen up when a small cloud appeared over him, pelting him with hail causing him to run away, as a small remote-controlled hail cloud chased him.
"Aah! Aah! Aaaaah! Aaaaaaaah! Aaaaaaaaah! Aah! Aah!"
Lindsay jumped up and down excitedly. "Look! That cloud is following him! Aw. It's like his own baby cloud. I want one, too. Here, cloudy-cloud!"
Chris sat in a chair with the controller, laughing to himself.
Noah let out a scream in the closet he was trapped in, "Let me outta here!" As soon as the plane landed, Izzy leaped out, and started kissing the ground.
As Geoff and Chris dug up Gwen they heard an explosion come from the woods.
"My guess Cody didn't complete his challenge." Chris grinned.
Bridgette sat in the woods shaking when she heard a loud boom and Cody came out covered in trash scaring her into running away. Noah had successfully finished his time in the closet wile Trent mastered his fear of mimes; Lindsey unfortunately hadn't been able to walk through a mime in heels resulting in her being blown up.
"All right, gang. We're at the ninth inning. Tyler, for your challenge, you need to get into this pen for three minutes with these chickens." Chris smirked.
"You can do it, Tyler!" Bridgette cheered.
Duncan smirked. "Yeah - unless, of course, you're chicken."
Tyler sat rocking back and forth in the fetal position.
"I'm not sure we're getting anywhere on this one."
Courtney walked up. "Tyler, this is the last challenge. Quit being such a girl! You have to do this, or we'll lose!"
"Yeah man up!"
"Hey you didn't do your dare either." Bridgette pointed out.
"Your point." Eva glared.
"Her point is you're on the chopping block too." Trent said.
"Oh really pretty boy?"
"Guy's let's not fight, we still have a chance to win this."
Cody pressed a few keys on a calculator. "Actually, if you do the math, you can't possibly win. The score's 5-4."
Chris grinned. "Not necessarily. We've still got one more challenge set up."
Courtney blinked. "Who? It can't be me. But I didn't. . ."
"You didn't have to. We're always watching you and your reactions."
[Flashback]
Trent attempted to hand Courtney a plate of green Jell-O, who immediately flipped out.
"No!"
Seeing the looks she was getting, she tried to play it off.
"I mean . . . no, thanks. I'm good."
[Skip]
"I just don't like green Jell-O, okay?"
[Flashback end]
"I knew it! Didn't I tell you guys they were eavesdropping?" Lindsay gasped.
Courtney huffed.
"Oh, who cares? It's not like it's going to make any difference."
Chris smirked evilly. "Let's make this interesting, then. I'll give you triple points if you can complete it. But, if you can't, hehe, I'll subtract three points from your team's score."
[Skip]
Courtney stood on a diving board over a tub of green Jell-O.
Duncan scoffed. "You're afraid of Jell-O?"
"Shut up! Only the green kind. It's like sugary, jiggly snot."
Chris grinned. "You can face your fear and dive straight into this pool of Jell-O or let your team lose another challenge."
She heaved a frustrated sigh.
"This is insane. I could seriously die doing this."
Gwen shivered. "Oh. That is just cruel! It's probably warm by now. Warm green Jell-O. Snotty, bouncy. . . ugh!"
"Don't listen to her she's just trying to psyche you out." Bridgette said.
"It's okay if you can't do it." Duncan said.
"It is? But we'll lose."
"I can't do it." Courtney whimpered, "I'm climbing down."
"There you have it. Courtney failed to face her fear, and that means the Screaming Gophers are the winners!"
"Yeah!"
"All right!"
"We did it!"
"There you have it. Heather faced her fear, and that means the Screaming Gophers are the winners!"
"Yeah! All right! We did it!"
[Skip]
Chris stood holding a plate, two marshmallows sitting upon it.
"There are only two marshmallows left on this plate."
Tyler, Eva and Courtney sat nervously, hoping to receive a marshmallow.
"The three of you did not complete your challenges today. One of you is going home tonight and cannot return. . . ever. The next name I'm gonna call. . . is. . . Bridgette."
While said surfer cheered, Eva and Tyler exchanged nervous glances.
"The final marshmallow of the night goes to. . .
...
...
Tyler.
"Eva, the dock of shame awaits."
She stood up, glaring.
"Nice. Real nice. Who needs this lame-o TV show, anyway?!"
As she stomped by she kicked Chris in the shin.
"Ow! Have a good-night's sleep tonight. You're all safe."
