"Greetings, valued viewers," Chris announced. "Before we get started with today's episode I know that someone have you have been waiting patiently to check in with some of the losers. Since a certain hostess was being difficult we had to postpone Total Drama Aftermath; but I've sent a squad to retrieve her. Let's watch shall we."
The camera showed a fancy restaurant. Blaineley sat alone at a table with a bottle of wine and a plate of salad.
"Ah, it feels so good to be finally free," she exclaimed to herself.
"We have located the target," someone said to the camera. "Ready for apprehension."
Blainely realized that she was being surrounded by various officials and screamed, "You can't make me go back!"
She grabbed the bottle of wine and slammed in against the nearest man. She then charged for the window and jumped through it in a large shatter.
Meanwhile four former campers had arrived at the set for Total Drama Aftermath. Katie was busy admiring Justin while Cody and Eva looked around nervously.
"Where is everyone?" Eva demanded. "Chris said that it would be up and running."
"And we all know who trusting Chris is," Cody remarked as he rolled his eyes.
The camera then returned to Chris who said, "Okay, we might have to postpone it a little longer. But in the meantime get ready for another awesome episode of Total Drama Revenge of the Island."
Geoff and Tyler were on another of their routine morning jogs. This time they had gone all the way down to the forest.
"Gee, nothing is working with Bridgette," Geoff sighed. "She's got so set on winning that she's loss all the affection in her."
"I'm telling you, you need to dump her," Tyler said, "before she gets a chance to hurt you. Just tell her that things aren't working out, you know, explain your case."
"When did you get so heartless?" Geoff scoffed.
"Hello, when my girlfriend broke up with me out of the blue!" Tyler snapped. "The Bridgette you loved is gone, you have to accept that."
Back in their team's base, Ezekiel awoke to find something warm was on top of him. He felt comfortable, but he forced his lazy eyes open to see what was happening. He felt his heart stop as he awoke face to face with a sleeping Izzy. The girl had curled up on his body and had her head resting on his. Ezekiel tried to remain perfectly still as if he was trying to not awake a bear. However he felt something wet slop onto his cheek as Izzy let her tongue roll out of her mouth. It was then that Ezekiel screamed and shoved her off of him.
"Back off, you pirates!" Izzy exclaimed as she woke up, once she got a look at her surrounding she laughed. "Hi guys.
As Geoff and Tyler returned, the former spotted Bridgette finishing up her yoga.
"Uh, Bridge, there's something I want to talk to you about," Geoff started.
"Not right now," Bridgette said. "I'm trying to work out a plan for today. We need to be most careful about Leshawna, she's the only one that actually seems concerned about her team."
"Yeah…whatever," Geoff sighed.
Beth's Confessional
Gee I've been trying to find a way to cheer up my teammates but they just don't see focused on winning anymore. Or in Noah's case, at all. They need someone like Brady, after I met him I was happy every day. If they found someone to love then I'm sure they'd be motivated. But what single girl is on the island who would want to date Noah? And what single guy is there that might get along with Sadie? Wait a minute…I got it!
Beth approached her moping friend Sadie and said, "Sadie, you like Noah, right?"
"Meh...there's like nothing awful about him," Sadie replied.
"But do you like like him?" Beth asked. "After all, he is a fangirl's dream."
"True," Sadie answered. "But I can't imagine how the two of us would get together. He's, like, not interested in anything but his books and videogames."
"Oh, I think you should be more confident," Beth suggested. "Go talk to him."
She pushed the large girl towards their captain.
"Um…hi Noah," Sadie said.
"Morning," Noah replied lazily.
The two then remained in an awkward silence for the next five minutes. Beth slapped her face in frustration.
Beth's Confessional
This might be harder than I thought.
Team Winning West had all awoke except for Leshawna. She lay in a deep slumber, clearly comfortable.
"Wow, she looks really tired," Gwen noted.
"I don't blame her," Trent said. "She's been really making an effort to help us with our issues. And Lord knows that we have a lot of them."
Sierra was not her usual self today. Instead of her energy she just moped as she stared at the floor.
"Is she okay?" Gwen whispered to Trent.
"She's still getting over Cody's sacrifice," Trent said. "Give her a little time and she'll probably be fine."
Soon all the campers were awake and heading to Chef's for breakfast. Sierra lagged behind her group, so Leshawna slowed down to join her.
"Sierra honey, you gonna be alright?" Leshawna asked the girl.
"I can't believe that Cody's gone," Sierra exclaimed. "He was the only reason for existence I had. What's the point of this show if I can't spend time with my Cody?"
"Hey, he sacrificed himself so you could do better," Leshawna said. "You should be trying to win it for him."
"I should have stopped Cody," Sierra moaned. "All I could think about was how heroic he was being, but once he left I realized that it should have been me. I let my Cody give up his shot at a million dollars. I don't even want the money."
"Well what's done is done," Leshawna sighed. "Now you're going to have to pull yourself together and do what Cody wanted."
The campers arrived at the cabin; their mood was at an all-time low. No one smiled; even Beth had given up trying to spread cheer. They ate Chef's mystery soup without complain. Chris took no note of this as he entered eagerly.
"Good morning, campers!" he said with a large grin. "Are you ready for today's challenge?"
He received a response that was something between a moan and an unenthusiastic cheer.
"Today we will be doing some roleplaying," Chris continued.
"Ugh, not another nerd game," Heather moaned.
"No, I meant literally roleplaying," Chris explained. "As in playing a role."
"What roles will we be playing?" Beth asked.
"Ah, we've got a warm-up challenge to decide that, "Chris said as his grin grew. "I'll see you out by the river for that in ten minutes."
The campers finished their meals then slowly made their ways to the river where Chris awaited. Next to him were four barrels. One was gold and bejewelled, one was black with a skull on it, one was bright pink with a bow on it, and one was just an ordinary barrel.
"Each team will be getting one of these barrels," Chris explained. "Inside you'll find your costumes for the day, as well as what role your team will be playing."
"I want the gold one," Leshawna called out.
"No way, I got dibs on that one," Heather protested.
"Actually, it's not that simple," Chris declared. "You'll be racing each other for the barrel that you want…as they float down the river."
With a kick he knocked the barrels into the water and cried, "And…go!"
"Let's get the jewelled one," Bridgette said to her team.
"Izzy wants that dark one," Izzy said. "Reminds me of explosives."
No, no!" Lindsay whined. "We're getting the pink one. And that's final!"
Ezekiel shot a nervous glance at Tyler. Meanwhile, Team Evil East was having a similar argument.
"We are totally grabbing that skull one," Duncan declared.
"No way, as captain I say that we will be getting that jewelled one," Courtney argued. "It clearly represents victory and champions."
"Or a royal pain," Duncan shot.
The golden barrel was nearing the edge of the water.
"Let's grab it!" Leshawna cheered to her team.
Leshawna, Trent, and Gwen each dived for it, but were unable to reach the barrel. Sierra jumped in half-heartedly and didn't even seem to try to catch the barrel. As their splashing caused it to float towards the edge closer to Courtney, the CIT reached out to grab it. She was however restrained by Duncan.
"Not so fast, princess," he said. "I want that skull barrel."
"Let go of me, you savage!" Courtney snapped as she shoved against him.
Geoff, Bridgette, and Tyler were trying to swim through the river to get to the jewelled barrel. They were approaching it and Lindsay realized it.
"I got it," the blond called as she jumped in after the barrel.
However, instead of grabbing it she seemed to shove it in the opposite directions
"Oops, I guess I don't got it," Lindsay said, but she still smiled triumphantly.
Bridgette growled in annoyance. Izzy, meanwhile, had targeted the black skull barrel. She swam fast and was able to clamp her hands around it.
"Got it!" she cheered, but then she saw the sun reflect off of the jewelled barrel. "Ooh shiny, never mind, Izzy changed her mind."
She tossed the black barrel away and headed for the golden one. Lindsay flopped about in the water, but when she spotted the pink barrel approaching her she made a mad dash-swim for it. Bridgette saw this too and kicked the pink barrel away before Lindsay could reach it.
"Oops, my bad," Bridgette said.
Bridgette's Confessional
Ugh, I'm stooping to Lindsay's level…which is essentially Heather's level? What is wrong with me? Part of me is actually hoping that we lose this; just so I can vote off Lindsay and be done with all this craziness. Then Geoff and I can really focus on winning this together.
Beth, Noah, and Sadie were all tentative about jumping after the barrels. After the pink barrel floated away from Lindsay, Sadie spotted it.
"Eee, pink!" she exclaimed as she cannonballed after it.
Her dived resulted in a large splash flying over everyone, but when it cleared she was firmly grasped around the barrel.
"Congratulations, Team Something South," Chris said as Sadie pulled the barrel to the ground.
Courtney and Duncan were still locked in each other. As they struggled Duncan spotted the barrel he wanted approaching.
"He look, Alejandro's taking his shirt off," Duncan exclaimed.
Courtney turned around eagerly as Alejandro remarked, "No I'm not."
In a splash Duncan shoved Courtney into the water. He then charged for the black barrel and pulled it out. At the same time Leshawna had made it to the golden barrel. However, as she grabbed onto it, Izzy dived onto the other side.
"Hey, let go, I was here first!" Leshawna said.
"Make me," challenged Izzy as she began to shake the barrel.
Leshawna remained firm and tried to rock the barrel against her opponent. As the two floated along the water they hit many painful obstacles. They rammed against rocks and skidded against the side of the ground. Eventually Bridgette, Tyler, and Geoff managed to catch up and began to pulling with Izzy. Leshawna was unable to hold on.
"Team Nutty North gets the golden barrel," Chris announced. "And that leaves Team Winning West with the plain barrel."
The barrel had barely moved at all during the whole race. Sierra was able to catch it and throw it onto the ground even in her slow mopey state.
"So it's the moment you've all be waiting for," Chris announced. "You will be playing the roles of…a superhero comic!"
"I thought you said this wasn't going to be nerdy," snapped Heather. "And another thing, we already had a superhero challenge in season 2. I really expected better creativity."
"You know, Heather, if you keep complaining about everything I do, it can be 'arranged' for you to be voted off accidentally," Chris threatened; he managed to shut Heather up.
Izzy smashed open her barrel to find that it was full of brightly cover capes, outfits, and masks.
"Team Nutty North has won the role of Superheroes," Chris announced.
Duncan broke his barrel open next. He found similar costumes except they were all dark.
"Team Evil East will be, fitting enough, the villains," Chris said.
Next Sadie untied the bow on her barrel and it folded open. They found a variety of clothes that looked either ordinary or very feminine.
"Team Something South will be the damsels in distress," Chris declared. "Something I'm sure you're all used to being."
Lastly Leshawna opened the plain barrel. They found another collection of costumes, but they were mostly just white and left little to the imagination.
"You guys will be sidekicks," Chris finished.
"So what is this challenge going to be?" Heather demanded. "Who looks like the biggest dork?"
"I'm warning you," Chris said between clenched teeth, "But to answer your question we first need to head to the other side of the island. We've got everything set up."
Courtney's Confessional
Me, a villain? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Sure, I'm on Team Evil East, but that has ironic value to it. Casting me as a villain is the last thing any good director would do; I'm the nicest person on this show.
The campers arrived at the beach on the opposite side of the island where they saw various props had been sit up. Cardboard city buildings had been scattered along the beach. On the edge of the beach and the forest a platform had been set up with skull symbols all around it.
"Team Something South would you mind standing on that platform?" Chris asked the three.
They made their way up to the platform. Chris smiled mischievously and pulled a lever. They immediately tumbled through a trapdoor and out of view.
"There we go, our damsels are now in distress," Chris declared. "Here's how the game works; heroes, you need to find a way into the prison and free the damsels. Villains you're trying to stop them. Anyone can be thrown into the dungeon and they'll instantly become a damsel. Heroes get points for rescuing a damsel, villains get points for everyone in the prison at the end, villains not included of course. And damsels get points for every one of them free at the end of the game; they can be rescued or they can find a way to rescue themselves."
He took a minute to catch his breath then called down the trapdoor, "You got all that damsels?"
"Uh-huh," Beth called back eventually.
"As for you guys," Chris said as he pointed to the sidekicks. "You'll be divided onto both team villain and team hero. You will be assigned to a hero or villain and it's your job to protect them. No matter what happens to you, you'll only get a point if your partner is safe by the end of the game."
"Wait, you're pitting us against each other?" Leshawna gasped.
"I guess I am," Chris said with a laugh. "Now to assign you to partners that would be the most awkward and interesting to watch. Let's start with…Leshawna with Heather."
The two girls growled at each other.
"How about…Lindsay and Trent," Chris continued. "And Sierra with Geoff."
"Woohoo," Sierra said unenthusiastically.
"And lastly we'll put Gwen with," an evil smile appeared on the host's face, "Duncan."
"What?" both Courtney and Gwen cried.
"I don't think that's really a good," Gwen started.
"What did I say about the complaining?" Chris snapped. "Now get suited up and ready for action."
Gwen's Confessional
This is why I hate Chris. When you finally think that you have achieved a nice balance in your life he does anything he can to screw it all up. I suppose I can make the best of being with Duncan…but I'm still through with him.
Beth, Sadie, and Noah had landed in a small cell made of smooth stone. They examined the pile of clothes that Chris had tossed down after them. There was a reporter's suit, a puffy dress, and a cheerleader's outfit.
"I can't wear this," Beth declared as she held up the cheerleader outfit. "Some girls have bodies made to be cheerleaders, but not me."
"Well, I can't wear it," Sadie declared. "It's at least three sizes too small for me."
The two glanced at Noah who exclaimed, "And just when I thought I couldn't possibly be humiliated further."
Geoff, Bridgette, Tyler, and Ezekiel were all in their costumes and stealthily moving behind the cardboard buildings. Sierra trailed behind them. Geoff and Bridgette wore nearly matching outfits, his was red and hers was blue, both were covered in sparkles. Tyler had a long cape and a tight green suit. Ezekiel was the darkest out of all of them with a deep violet suit that even came with a cowl to cover his face. Sierra wore just a plain white shirt and pants with a golden belt.
"Hey wasn't Izzy with us, just a minute ago?" Bridgette remarked.
"Yo, that's great, eh," Ezekiel said. "Any longer with her and I think I'd crack, eh."
However his bliss was cut short as Izzy swung in on a rope. Her costume was a pattern of grey and white spirals.
"Web girl to the rescue!" she cried as she shot a web rope from her palm and swung along a building.
She swooped up Ezekiel then dived in a different direction from the rest of the team. Chef and Chris watched all this on screen from a hidden booth.
"Did we give her that web ability?" Chris asked the big man.
"I didn't put anything like that in the barrel," Chef answered.
Chris just shrugged.
Lindsay's Confessional
Okay, this morning with the barrels was very unprofessional of me. I've got to stop yelling at my team and start yelling at other teams. No wait, maybe I shouldn't so much yell at them as I do sabotage them. Since I'm paired with Trevor maybe I can work on him. Let's see is there anyone that he likes…
Lindsay and Trent made their way through another part of Chris's fake city. Lindsay wore a suit that looked to be made out of a material that was practically translucent. Trent had on a similar outfit to Sierra's.
"So, Trent, I um…really like you," Lindsay tried.
"Uh…thanks, Lindsay, I like you too," Trent said.
"So um…"Lindsay paused to think of something to say. "I really like your music."
"Yeah?" Trent exclaimed clearly happy to have the topic come up.
"Yeah it really…makes me think of a lot of stuff," Lindsay said.
"Really, like what?" Trent asked eagerly.
"Uh…music," Lindsay tried.
Trent's Confessional
Lindsay seems kind of cool, but I have been noticing she's been acting a little weird lately. Anyways I don't think she's the one for me. Sorry, Leshawna, but I'm still not ready to move on.
Team Something South sat around the cell all looking incredibly bored.
"So…do you think we should look for a way out?" Sadie suggested.
"Actually, why don't you and Noah have a conversation?" Beth said. "I'll search for the way out."
The small geeky girl had put on the reporter's suit, while Sadie wore the dress. Beth approached the wall and began tapping and pushing on the stones.
"So…Sadie," Noah began, "Do you like video games?"
"Heh, not really," Sadie said with an awkward laugh. "Do you like shopping?"
"Um…no," Noah responded.
Beth was still busy trying every stone; she declared, "There's always a secret passage in these cells. Chris has got to know that."
In Chris's booth, he and Chef laughed as Beth fruitlessly made her second time around the cell. After they watched her confusion, Chris said, "Okay, I guess we should cut her a break."
Chef pushed a button and the nearest stone to Beth opened up. She cheered and ran through it. However, when Noah and Sadie turned around it was already closed.
Bridgette spotted Courtney and Duncan pacing in front of the prison platform. Courtney was wearing a black dress that had been purposefully ripped to make it look menacing. Duncan wore all black suit, cape, and bowler hat.
"Okay, we're going to have to split up," Bridgette suggested. "Tyler and I will go to distract them while Geoff and Sierra sneak in and lower a rope for the prisoners."
Bridgette crept towards the platform with Tyler following behind her.
"Over there!" Courtney cried.
She and Duncan charged after the two heroes.
"Okay, Sierra, keep a look out for a sneak attack," Geoff said.
"Sure," moped Sierra.
However she spotted something that made her smile.
"Cody, is that you?" she cried as she ran in the other direction.
She was disappointed to find that it was only a cardboard cut-out of her crush.
As Chris watched he laughed, "I was hoping that would get her."
When Sierra turned around Geoff was nowhere in sight. However, hidden in the trees, Alejandro had a smug smile as he remarked, "She made that too easy."
Bridgette and Tyler still evaded Duncan and Courtney. Gwen, wearing a plain grey outfit, sighed as she watched. Tyler was having trouble running in his tight pants and Duncan was gaining on him. Suddenly Tyler tripped over his cape and stumbled to the ground. Duncan easily grabbed and a dragged him to the platform. Alejandro grabbed the lever and Tyler was sent to the prison.
"Web girl attack!" Izzy cheered as she swung from one of her webs.
Duncan was caught off guard as she booted him in the back. The boy went stumbling in after Tyler. Ezekiel couldn't help but clap from where she had left him. It was then that he saw that she had left him on top of one of the buildings, except it was just a cardboard image so it was very important that he kept his balance.
"Why didn't you do something?" Courtney snapped at Gwen. "You're his sidekick, you should be responsible for protecting him."
Gwen's Confessional
God, Courtney is insatiable. If I had been clinging up to Duncan she would have been furious since we all know she's not over him. But if I keep my distance it's all my fault that Izzy got him by surprise. She has got to learn to respect others.
Lindsay had fallen behind Trent as she adjusted he makeup. Since conversation hadn't swayed him she was working on her physical appearance. It was then that she heard someone approaching her. She looked up to see Alejandro creeping between the trees. His outfit was leopard print and he wore a monstrous feline mask. Lindsay didn't recognize him and screamed in sheer terror. Alejandro clamped a hand over her mouth and carried her into the trees.
Trent turned around when he heard the quick scream, then muttered, "She probably broke a nail."
"What are we doing back here?" Leshawna complained as Heather guided her through the forest.
Leshawna wore the same black attire as Gwen, while Heather had a draping black dress patterned with bones. She had a bone hairdo thing holding her ponytail in place.
"Look, just because I've got the title of sidekick doesn't mean you can tell me what to do," Leshawna said.
"Isn't it obvious?" Heather scoffed. "Chris said that they prisoners could find their own way to escape. Since I didn't see any exits up front, it must be back here somewhere."
Leshawna was about to argue, but then she heard the sound of frantic running. Both girls spun around to see Beth trying to make her way to safety.
"Get her!" screamed Heather as they raced after the girl.
"Not so fast!" cried Izzy as she dropped Ezekiel on a tree branch.
She then fired a glob of her webbing at Heather. It stuck villain to a tree as she cursed.
"You're safe now, civilian," Izzy called to Beth.
"Yo, what about me, eh?" Ezekiel called as he desperately tried to grab on to something.
"There's work for us to do, Nocturnal Boy," Izzy declared as she scooped him up again. "The hostages needed to be freed."
The two retraced Beth's steps as they found the passage into the prison. Leshawna meanwhile was trying to rip off the webbing that held Heather.
"Hurry up, they're getting away," barked Heather.
"I'm trying," Leshawna shot back. "What is this stuff made of?"
Izzy meanwhile was crawling through a tunnel with Ezekiel trailing behind her. Eventually it opened up to a small room with a stone wall. Izzy quickly found the lever and pulled it.
"Fear not, prisoners,"Izzy declared. "The nightmare is almost over."
Noah and Sadie rushed out, however the door slammed down before anyone else could escape. The four made their way out and back into the forest. As they continued to run, they were blocked by Leshawna and Heather.
"Ah, Skeletra, my arch-nemesis," Izzy hissed at Heather.
The group was surprised to see Beth running back the way she had come. Courtney pursued her furiously, who was also being chased by Bridgette.
"This looks like it's going to be the biggest battle of our lives," Izzy declared. "Say your prayers, Nocturnal Boy, we might not make it out of this alive."
"Actually," Chris called. "As much as I'd love to see you guys tear each other apart, we've run out of time. Meet me back by the prison platform for the results."
The prison opened and soon everyone had returned to where they had begun.
"Well, that was very interesting," Chris said. "First off, congratulations Izzy, you managed to trap Duncan, glob Heather, and rescue two prisoners. Along with coming up with that webbing…whatever that was."
Izzy cheered, "Once again, justice prevails. But who know how long before evil strikes back."
"Uh…yeah," Chris muttered. "Anyways, Damsels, you managed to have one member escape as well as the other two rescued by heroes. Good work. Villains, how could you let your prisoners escape? How did manage to keep four, but one of those was a fellow villain. Very poor performance. But not quite as poor as the sidekicks. Sierra, Gwen, Trent, you all let your partners get imprisoned; even you Leshawna could have untied Heather a little faster."
"Hey, I'd like to see you do better," Leshawna snapped.
"I'll be seeing you tonight," Chris finished.
Leshawna's Confessional
Oh who to vote for? I want to keep helping Gwen and Trent…but I want to help Sierra too, Cody did give up just for her.
Gwen's Confessional
I don't care if her obsession isn't here anymore, if she's just gonna stop trying that Cody's sacrifice was pointless.
Team Nutty North was relaxing back at their fort. Many of them had congratulated Izzy, even Ezekiel. Geoff glanced at Bridgette nervously; she still seemed to be focused on something.
"Good job, Bridgette," he said as he approached her.
"Hm," she mumbled. "Team Winning West should be weakened now, we've just got to keep this up and they shouldn't pose such a threat to us."
"Hey, babe, could you stop talking like that for a minute," Geoff asked.
"Talking like what?" Bridgette replied.
"Like all that matters is winning," Geoff said. "You're starting to sound a lot like Courtney…or even Heather."
"No I'm not," Bridgette protested. "I'm just doing this for us. There's a lot of tension this season and we could just be thrown out any day."
"If you want to do something for me, stop acting so serious," Geoff said as he felt his tone rising. "Have a little fun once in a while."
"When are you going to realize that fun won't cut it?" Bridgette snapped. "Courtney, Heather, Alejandro, even Lindsay now, they'll all eagerly do what they can to get rid of us. We need to stay strong."
"Look!" Geoff snapped.
"What?" Bridgette snapped up.
Geoff could feel the words on the edge of his tongue, "I don't want to be with you anymore." But he said nothing.
Instead he just mumbled, "Just try to lighten up a bit."
He then walked away from her without saying anything more.
"Welcome back, Team Winning West," Chris greeted with a mocking smile. "It seems like your luck has run out."
The team looked back at him with looks of defeat.
"Only three marshmallows remain," Chris said. "By the end of tonight only three of you will remain."
Gwen unconsciously slipped her hand into Trent's.
"The first of you safe is…Leshawna," Chris announced as he tossed the girl her marshmallow.
"Next up…Gwen," he called.
Gwen grabbed her prize, but then shot a worried glance at Trent.
"And the final marshmallow goes to," Chris finished, "the camper that deserves it the most and will staying in the contest for another week with another shot to win the million dollars. And that camper is…Trent."
As Sierra got up she looked happier than she had the whole day.
"I suppose I deserved that," she said as she waved farewell. "I'm coming Cody-wody!"
She eagerly ran to the Boat of Losers and departed from the island with enthusiasm.
"Well, that could have been a little more dramatic," Chris remarked. "But I promise that more drama is to come in the next episode. What turns will Bridgette and Geoff's relationship take? Is there any possibility of Beth getting Sadie and Noah together? When will the many heartbroken losers get over their losses? Find out soon on Total Drama Revenge of the Island!"
