Chapter 33: Edmund's Clash with Bart
Once again, it was time for the Aftermath show as Geoff was going to give a recap to the audience.
Geoff's Commentary:
Last time on Camp Drama Showdown Aftermath, we decided to let Jorgen and the Masked Stranger, along with their sidekick Wally do some investigations into who was the one who was leaking out the Aftermath challenges before the challenge could ever begin. Turns out it was a vampire boy named Edmund, a staff member doing the deed.
But since the events in the game, Edmund is now upgraded to a co-host, making one awkward situation for us, so get ready because here is Camp Drama Showdown the Aftermath!
End of commentary.
Indeed it would be quite an awkward sitting, at least for Bart, but not Lisa who was still dazzled by Edmund's appearance.
"Wow, I am sure glad you're onboard on our team" said Lisa who was trying to be polite to Edmund in spite of his misbehavior.
"Oh come on" said Bart who wasn't buying Lisa sucking up to Edmund.
"Whoa there" said Geoff who intervened trying to break up a possible fight between Bart and Edmund, "there's no need to start an old fashion Texas brawl, wait until that may happen in the game."
"Ha, he won't start one with me, because he knows he'll lose" laughed Edmund.
"Are you trying to imply that I'm a wimp?" asked Bart.
"Yes" replied Edmund who gave an evil smile toward Bart.
"Let's bring out those who were voted off recently, along with the two villains that could make Edmund's career a possibility" said Bridgette who was referring to Eustace and Vicky.
"This stinks, I wanted me money!" cried Eustace who was coming out with the others who were voted off.
"We also have former Sheriff Woody with us too" added Geoff.
"Hey, this is just like the old West, but without me in a coffin" said Woody.
"You can thank Grim for not going that far" said Bridgette.
"Those two, it's all their fault that this is happening!" said Buford who wanted some payback.
"Now, now, you'll get your fair share, I say a good old stocks punishment for these two are in order" said Edmund.
"I wish there could be a third one" said Bart who was referring to Edmund.
A few minutes later, Vicky and Eustace found themselves locked in Medieval style stocks.
"This is just great, thanks to that deal we made we didn't get anything!" cried Eustace.
"Yea, you said you were going to help us!" cried Vicky to Edmund.
"Ha, I lied" laughed Edmund.
"So, what are going to do with these tomatoes?" asked Buford.
"Why don't you find out?" asked Jorgen who brought a few more barrels of tomatoes.
Buford indeed threw a few tomatoes at Vicky and Eustace, along with the others who followed.
"Now this is more like it" laughed Marceline.
"Hit them hard!" laughed Lee Kanker who threw a tomato right at Eustace.
"Hey, he helped us too!" cried Vicky who was still referring to Edmund, "Hey you big guy, why are you not putting that vampire kid here?"
"Because he's under contract not like you" replied Jorgen who laughed at Vicky and Eustace.
"Well, I for one believe Edmund should join them since I do not care about his contract" said Bart, "the guy forced Chris to sign it after Chris and the others were placed in jail!"
Bart then signaled Jorgen to roll the evidence on the projector of Vicky and Eustace, along with Chris' newest adviser M. Bison drafting the contract.
"This evidence was picked up after the town was cleared of those two" continued Bart.
"Ha, there's no way even the law would allow it, I legally got Chris to put me as a co-host and a possible contestant in the game as well" laughed Edmund.
"Oh yea!" said Bart as he then grabbed a tomato and threw it right on Edmund's face.
"Oh, you shouldn't have done that, us vampires like to keep up on our looks" said Marceline to Bart.
Edmund grew quite enraged at Bart, and grabbed a barrel of tomatoes.
"You want a fight with me, then let's fight!" said Edmund.
Edmund then tossed the barrel of tomatoes on poor Bart, to which Bart then began to throw the tomatoes back at Edmund. The losers who were voted off were quite perplexed as they thought they were the ones who were going to behave like that.
"So, who do you think is going to win this one?" asked Chum Chum to Fanboy.
"Not sure, but that Edmund kid can throw faster than Bart" replied Fanboy.
Jorgen then had enough about into an hour of the food fight, Jorgen stepped right in and stopped the two.
"Enough!" roared Jorgen as he was strong enough to pick up Edmund as well as Bart by the sleeve of their shirts, "This is not how you two should behave!"
But Jorgen wasn't the only one who wasn't happy, a certain Marge Simpson who oversaw the fight ran to the studios, literally driving over the speed limit. Even though some police officers spotted her speeding, they noticed in the window that she wasn't going to cooperate meaning it'd be trouble for them if they'd pull her over. That obviously gave Marge time to race to the studios. As she entered the studios, she wasn't just mad at Edmund for fighting with Bart, but ten times angrier as she noticed Jorgen lifting Bart up and scolding him.
"You, put my boy down!" roared Marge.
"But, I'm simply trying to restore order!" cried Jorgen.
"Now!" roared Marge as she slugged Jorgen with her purse which Jorgen was then sent tumbling down to the ground, "And you two, when this season is over, you two will NOT ever be Aftermath hosts ever!"
"Oh come on Ms. S, this happens all the time" said Geoff to which was an obvious bad comment, "yea, I should get out of the way."
"And why are they punished like this?" asked Marge referring to Vicky and Eustace.
"Hey, about time someone has stuck up for us" said Vicky.
"They were the ones who helped force Chris to sign a contract to put Edmund into the show" said Rose.
"Look, I do not care how cruel they were, they do not deserve to be locked up in these stocks" continued Marge.
"Alright, alright" said Bridgette as she then signaled Geoff to release both Vicky and Eustace.
"Man, never had a parent come here in this kind of a manner" said Geoff.
"I wonder if she'll need any help after this season's over into making sure those two behave" said Vicky referring to Bart and Lisa.
After Eustace and Vicky were leased from the stocks, the two ran off literally trying to flee the studios.
"Bah, can't wait to get the heck out of here!" cried Eustace who was quite happy to be free.
Meanwhile, it seemed like it was going to be quite a sad, but short Aftermath, Geoff couldn't believe Bart and Lisa were going to quit being Aftermath hosts because of their mother being quite demanding. He was busy on his cell phone talking to Chris.
"Really, is that what their mother said?" asked Chris, "Man, that Marge is quite some trouble for us, we'll miss those two."
"Yea, well bye" said Geoff as he turned off his cell phone, "well, it's official, Chris accepts you two to resign from your posts once the season is over."
"Well, at least we can say it was fun while it lasted" said Sakura.
"We're still going to have at least a few more Aftermaths" said Bart, "it's not the end yet."
"I'll be making sure nothing else goes wrong by staying at the studios" said Marge who headed off to a private area in the studios.
"Great, that's so comforting" said Jack who was being rather sarcastic about it.
"Well, sadly due to that kind of disruption, we'll have to cut our Aftermath short" said Geoff, "Edmund, if you do not mind helping out some of our staff load materials on for the show?"
"About time" said Edmund who waited for the right ruse.
As everything was getting cleaned up after the mess and fight between Bart and Edmund, the scene switches to Edmund who was secretly sneaking onto a truck loaded with materials meant for the show as it was heading for the fictional Western town itself. The scene then switches back to Chris who was revealing the security footage of Edmund, along with also Marge being ever so watchful of her children.
"Man, that Marge can really pull a punch at Jorgen, will Edmund be able to join the competition? Will Jorgen recover from the humiliation that he was knocked out by a purse? And just what will happen to Ember and Young Blood who'll certainly not welcome him with open arms? Find out more here on Camp Drama Showdown!" said Chris.
