Chapter 51: Jump the Gorge
Once again it was Blaineley's turn to give a recap to the audience.
Blaineley's commentary:
Last time on Camp Drama Showdown, a Derby Race meet the contestants with a sudden death challenge! Meaning those who could not even reach the finish line were automatically voted off! Which were the cases for Zak Saturday, Abigail, Phineas, and Isabella for which Phineas was injured during a mishap by his brother Ferb who was trying to get rid of Zak Monday who was riding right behind him.
However, it all came down to a vote off by the contestants who did cross the finish line, Edmund made the odd choice of selecting Timmy to share immunity that got Zak Monday pretty upset and angry, who could blame him? It was quite easy for the contestants who crossed the finish line to pick and choose who'd be voted off, and Zak Monday was forced to join the other four on the Carriage of Shame home, so who'll be voted off next? Find out here on Camp Drama Showdown!
End of commentary.
Ferb wasn't happy with the results of the last challenge and neither was Cotton who was scolding Ferb as he was continuing to make up for his failed attempts.
"I just don't understand what went wrong" said Ferb who continued to study his plans.
"I'll tell you what went wrong, you're lack of coordination!" cried Cotton, "If this was Japan during World War II and the General ordered you to get up on the beach, you wouldn't even make it to the trenches!"
"Look, I'm just perplexed myself on how I couldn't stop Zak Monday with my plan" continued Ferb.
"Well just look at it harder then" continued Cotton who then went off grumbling quite a bit.
Ferb continued to study his plans further, but Ferb wasn't the only one confused, Timmy was as he was sharing immunity with Edmund.
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"Why the heck would Edmund want to share immunity with me, I should be the last person he'd have shared immunity with!" cried Timmy.
"All part of divide and conquer" laughed Edmund.
"I am certain that Zak Monday must have messed up with my plans" said Ferb.
"I knew it, that Monday kid" sighed Cotton.
End of confessions.
"Why the heck did you share immunity with pal, you're not going to share the 25 million bucks with me which I doubt" said Timmy who crept up to Edmund as he was pretending to sleep on his bed.
"Listen you mortal twerp, the reason why I shared immunity with you wasn't because I like you or anything, is that you the Masked Stranger thing is less annoying than Zak Monday ever was, or Ed or Wally were" continued Edmund to which the vampire boy pulls Timmy's mask like a rubber band which hits back at poor Timmy which must have been quite painful.
Confessions in the Saloon:
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" cried Timmy who could still feel the sting.
"Oh yes, that feels good, and getting the 25 million bucks will make me feel even greater!" laughed Edmund.
End of confessions.
As morning broke, Chef along with Colonel Barnes got the rest of the contestants up, poor Timmy was still being comfort by Hank who didn't seem to like Edmund bullying Timmy.
"That vampire boy shouldn't be messing with you like that" continued Hank to Timmy, "you're the Masked Stranger, you're supposed to be the hero of the old Wild West."
"Tell that to Dracula Jr." sighed Timmy.
"Don't worry, I know Chef is under watch for any illegal alliances, but I am willing to help you out, though not in any brand of challenges" continued Hank.
"Gee, thanks" replied Timmy.
But for the others most were happy that Zak Monday was gone for good.
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"Man, I'm so glad that Zak Monday is gone, gone, gone, gone, gone!" laughed Danielle.
"Too bad Dracula Jr. is still with us" sighed June.
"There must be a way for one of us to beat that vampire kid" said Jenny.
End of confessions.
Indeed when the contestants headed for the mess hall those who remained in the game that were mostly against Edmund sat at one table.
"There has to be a weakness to this guy besides the religious cross, garlic and other magical stuff" said Johnny.
"For some reason he's out to get me" said Cleveland Jr., "I know you all may have your reasons, but what reason does he have in it for me?"
"He's the opposite of you, that's why" continued Huey.
"Anyone who's the so opposite of you must deep down resent you" added June.
"Do you need any of my suggestions?" asked Ferb.
"Look pal we tried it your way to beat Edmund and it didn't work" said Johnny.
"Yea, just store it away" added June.
Ferb felt quite disappointed as he ended up ripping his plans apart right in front of everyone to which Cotton was upset as well, he was obviously invisible watching what was going on.
"So what is the plan getting rid of Edmund?" asked Joseph.
"We just have to do what we usually do in winning challenges" continued Jenny.
"I don't think that might be enough" continued Ferb, "he's rather crafty."
But the other contestants couldn't come up with a real plan to face Edmund, as they headed out to the gorge area again, they met up with Chris and Blaineley, along with the robotic horses.
"Today's challenge is a simple jump the gorge!" laughed Chris.
"Isn't that a bit dangerous?" asked Jenny.
"Hey, you're a robot, you can fly if something goes wrong with your parachute which the others who do not have the ability to fly will have one where Chef along with Colonel Barnes, Hank and John Redcorn down at the bottom will have a nice safety net for you to land in" continued Chris.
While Chris and Blaineley continued to give the others instructions, Edmund snuck off a bit and went to work sabotaging the horses that were going to be used, he only sabotaged five horses out of the others whom were there. He also then messed up one parachute that was near a robotic horse and then went back to where Chris and Blaineley were who didn't know that Edmund had did his deed.
"Alright, this is another sudden death challenge, but with an added reward challenge to those who survive the gorge jump" continued Chris, "the reward will be a nice first class BBQ dinner, massage and the other works of relaxation, the others, not so much."
Indeed the contestants ended up choosing their horses, sadly Joseph got the one parachute and the horse that was sabotaged, the other horses that were sabotaged were chosen by Danielle, Johnny, Huey and Ferb. Chris indeed had his gun filled with blanks ready to which has he fired the shot, Edmund typically went first to which he ended up leaping over the gorge no problem with the robotic horse.
"Ha, that was so easy!" laughed Edmund.
"Well, here goes nothing" said Timmy as he swallowed some air hoping he wouldn't fall to his doom.
Timmy struggled to maintain control over his horse, but he ended up leaping over the gorge no problems at all.
"My turn!" laughed Cleveland Jr.
Confessions in the Saloon:
"Not to sound like Wally on fat jokes, but I'm surprised that horse can handle Cleveland Jr." said Edmund.
"I hope he makes it" said Timmy.
End of confessions.
Cleveland Jr. indeed made it across the gorge but just barely but managed to get up on his feet. Next was June's turn.
"Ha, time to show the boys how it's done!" laughed June.
June went really fast with her robotic horse right over the gorge itself and as her horse landed she purposely had the horse kick some dirt in Edmund's face.
"Hey, you did that on purpose!" roared Edmund.
"For anything you'd probably try any dirty tricks in the past and in the present" said June.
Jenny was next as she rode her robotic horse, she had obviously no trouble at all.
"Ha, made it!" laughed Jenny as she gave June a high five.
But sadly poor Johnny ended up running into some trouble with his robotic horse as it was his turn, he never even made it toward the gorge itself as his horse literally came right apart.
"There's something you don't see everyday" laughed Chris.
Next came Danielle for which her horse did manage to make it toward the gorge and ended up leaping over it, pieces of the horse began to fall right apart to which Danielle used her parachute since she didn't want to use her ghost powers to cheat. Next came Ferb's turn who felt confident he could do it. But like Danielle's horse, Ferb's horse fell apart in midair, and as Ferb tried to release his parachute he landed right on Danielle as she was on the net that Chef, Colonel Barnes, Hank and John Redcorn had setup.
"Let's hope my horse doesn't do that" said Huey.
Though Huey's horse was able to reach the gorge pieces of the horse were littered around the area before he could get to the gorge which had Chris and Blaineley wondering what was going on, poor Huey had to activate his parachute as he fell off the cliff of the gorge itself and landing right in the net. Finally came Joseph whose tragedy was yet to unfold.
"Eh, Joseph it wouldn't be shameful to us if you decided to skip this one and called it quits with the rest" said Chris, "if you're willing to avoid an expensive lawsuit."
"No I'm going to do this, for my friend Bobby" said Joseph.
"There goes yet another one" sighed Blaineley as she shook her head.
Joseph's horse ended up falling apart in midair to which as Joseph began to try to activate his parachute, the parachute wouldn't come out.
"What's going on, my chute isn't working!" cried Joseph, "I hope I don't end up like Bobby's mom did!"
Poor Joseph ended up getting hit by a few rocks as he tumbled down, but despite tumbling down the gorge rocks themselves, Joseph was able to walk in spite of those obvious injuries.
"Joseph, you're okay?" cried Hank who was rather worried.
"Don't worry, we'll get him patched up" said John Redcorn.
Same as the last challenge there was no ceremony, but the Carriage of Shame instead with the contestants who failed the gorge jump were heading home, Joseph being the most injured among them all. While the other contestants who had passed the gorge jump celebrated their reward, Chris was reviewing some security tapes of Edmund messing around with the horses and the parachute that Joseph had used.
"Well, sounds like that vampire boy really wants that 25 million bucks, will he obtain the million bucks? Will his arch rival Cleveland Jr. make a surprise comeback? And will I receive complaints from Joseph's family threatening a lawsuit? Find out more next time here on Camp Drama Showdown!" laughed Chris.
