Chris "Last time, on Total Drama Luxury Tour… the Naica Mine, here our minor miners take on their third challenge. Once they reached the Cave of Crystals, our midshipmen harvested the crystal selenite to bring them back out of the mine. Due to Duncan dropping his lighter into the box of TNT, the Admirals lose their lead and their chances of a first victory. It was the Skippers who made it first and won with the Killer Captains in second. Ultimately it was Beth, who could not take the heat, so she had to leave the kitchen, or in this case the game. Who will be next? Find out here on Total… Drama… Lllllllllluxury Tour!"

*cues theme music*

"Cody, up here!" Gwen beckons to him.

"Almost there, Gwen!" The geek answers back.

Cody climbs up the top of the ship to his gothic crush. Closer and closer, he climbs as Gwen cheers him on.

"You almost have it, Cody!"

"Here I come!"

As soon as the gap toothed geek reached up to take her hand, he sees the goth locking lips with the mohawked delinquent, Duncan. The punk looks down at Cody with a cruel grin and kicks him off the side of the ship, causing the geek to plummet screaming into the ocean.

"GWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENN!" Cody screams just before he snaps out of his dream. He sits up, looks around his cabin and sighs as he lies back down. Cody then turns to his side and notices Sierra smiling at him as she rests next to him in his bed.

"Having a bad dream again, Codykins?" Sierra asks with a big smile.

"Ugh, hey Sierra…" Cody responds, now growing more accustomed to her stalking, "Don't you have your own cabin to sleep in?"

"Aww… but it gets so lonely in there," Sierra whined.

Cody only sighed, got up and signaled her to leave so he could get dressed. The fangirl pouted because of this but begrudgingly complied.

**Screaming Admirals**

"It's tough knowing Beth is gone," DJ whined.

"Yeah, but Duncan and Gwen instructed us to vote her off" Geoff reminded.

"I couldn't do it, there's no way I would wanna boot someone for that, besides there's no one on our team I hate!" DJ defended.

"Are you gonna spend the entire season without voting anyone to be eliminated, dude?"

"Momma said I should never hurt a friend in any way"

**Rabid Admirals**

Noah silently peaks to the upper deck to see Alejandro chatting friendlily to Tyler, Lindsay, and Sadie.

C.C.

Noah "This is not good, looks like Al-eel-jandro has an established alliance with three other people. However, I do know each of their weaknesses. Tyler is uncoordinated, Lindsay is a dunce, and Sadie is just a drooling fangirl. Perhaps I can play on Al's level. It's the only way to stop his second reign of terror"

Alejandro "Noah, Izzy, and Justin are my current targets. One is clever, one is unpredictable, but I think my next victim will be the one who carries the sin of envy"

The ships pull over to their next destination according to their GPSs. Once again Chris, Chef and the intern workers await them. Once the contestants walked off their ships, they noticed the refreshing cold breeze of an Alaskan forest. Heather was the first to notice and mock Chris's new garb.

"Nice regalia, gramps!"

Chris was wearing suspenders, a long-sleeved plaid flannel shirt, and heavy boots. Ignoring the queen bee's remark, Chris announces, "Welcome shellbacks, to Kodiak Island, Alaska!" It will be here where we will be living the lumberjack lifestyle.

C.C.

Ezekiel "Yeah dawgs! We're in my territory now, recognize!"

Duncan "We got the muscles in our group, this ours! We are going to dominate!"

"For today's challenge," Chris instructed. "You lumberjacks and jills will be cutting down trees and then chopping them down to logs. Afterwards, you will be log driving them downstream the river to the nearby lumber mill. There you will be making them into boards which you will then build a shack out of. Whoever builds theirs first will be treated to a traditional Lumberjack breakfast… Flapjacks, flapjacks, and MORE flapjacks!"

C.C.

Tyler "I will totally impress Linds this time!"

"Each logger will choose between a personal axe or a two-man saw," Chris continued, "Oh and watch out for the wildlife here, they may not be fond of our practices. That aside, begin!"

**Screaming Admirals**

"This is our time, admirals! Let's show those chumps who rocks the brawns!" Duncan cheered.

DJ, Eva, and Geoff all grab axes and immediately ran to some trees. Harold struggles to even life his axe.

"Need some help, sugar baby?" Leshawna asked.

"Maybe…" Harold answered back.

"Why don't we share a saw?" Leshawna offered as Harold happily agrees.

**Killer Captains**

Cody sadly watches as his gothic crush blushes looking at Duncan work the axe against the tree.

C.C.

Cody "How am I supposed to win Gwen over when it comes to muscles…"

"Cody? Want to share a double saw?" Sierra invited.

Cody sighs, "I guess"

"You sure about that?" Heather interjected, "If you want to impress someone so badly, why don't you show her how strong you can be when pushed hard enough"

"You think?" Cody asked hopefully thinking about what Gwen would think.

C.C.

Sierra "Seems odd Heather wants Cody to try so hard to impress me, but who am I to complain?"

Heather "Muscling up Cody, it's only to get a stronger and more loyal alliance member, nothing more" she says as she turns from the camera.

Cody "Is Heather trying to help me or trying to kill me?"

"Swing! Swing! Swing!" Heather kept on ordering as Cody struggles to keep up with each swing while chopping down the tree.

"Why are you even bothering?" Courtney asked angrily, "Don't blow our chances at winning just to make the twerp feel better!"

"That's it, if you don't lay off my Cody…" Sierra threatened while clenching her axe before the geek cut her off.

"Hehe, hopefully I won't be a twerp for long," Cody happily said as the CIT sneered and everyone else was surprised how well he handled the insult.

C.C.

Cody "I've learned to take Courtney's belittling. Besides, I may have a way to perhaps make her nicer!"

**Rabid Admirals**

Alejandro, now shirtless, swings his axe and swiftly works on his tree. Sadie and Lindsay stop using their double saws to watch him work.

Justin gets frustrated and takes off his shirt as well. Not only that, but he also takes two axes and chops with both hands.

"Ladies, what do you think of this?" Justin yells out. The girls completely ignore him and Alejandro smiles at him.

"Oh Justin, jealousy is an "ugly" trait" The Latin archenemy responds.

C.C.

Justin points at the camera, "He did not just go there, and Noah had better have a plan by now!"

Alejandro then turns to see Geoff distracted watching Bridgette, "I'll be right back," he tells everyone as he walks over to the party animal.

"Geoff, mi amigo, have you settled things with Bridgette yet?" Alejandro politely asked.

"Not yet, still a bit hesitant, bro" Geoff responded.

"Well there she is, and now is a good of a time as ever, but it's up to you. In case you do, remember, "Forward," "Confident" and "Aggressive'" the Latin hunk said as he walked away with a devilish smile.

C.C.

Alejandro "Now to sit back and watch the fireworks"

**Killer Captains**

"Watch out ya'll! The Zeke is gonna show you all how to chop wood!" The homeschool bragged as he swung his axe hard enough against the tree that he was unable to pull his axe out of it, "Umm… one second…" Ezekiel tries his best to tug on the axe handle while Heather only scoffed at him and continues her own work at supervising Cody.

"How can you guys do this to trees?" Bridgette complained.

"Might not be the most environmentally friendly challenge, but we can't lose" Trent reminded as he continues chopping.

"Besides, most of the birds have already migrated from here anyhow, and no sight of nests or animal holes in the tree," Cody added, "Also, whichever one of us who wins can promise to replant some."

Bridgette then smiled, "I guess, thanks Cody"

"Enough talk, SWING!" Heather cut in.

C.C.

Cody "Bridgette is great to have as a friend, probably the only girl on our team that I can talk to on an emotional level. Besides, she's friends with Gwen and maybe will put in a good word for me!"

Suddenly Geoff appeared next to his surfer girlfriend, "Hey Bridge"

"Oh, hey Geoffy," she greeted nervously.

Heather, immediately going to her teammate's defense, "Don't try to distract he-"

"BACK OFF!" Geoff yells, inheriting Alejandro's advice on "aggressiveness." Bridgette, Heather, and the rest of the Killer Captains were surprised by his outburst. Shaking off the released anger, Geoff turned to Bridgette and brought out the "direct" part of Alejandro's advice, "Look, this is too much for me Bridge, I need you, and I can't function without you!"

"Geoff, this isn't healthy for you" The surfer girl responded concernedly.

Finally, the party animal brought out the "confident" part and grabbed his girl in a tight embrace and smooches her uncontrollably.

"Geoff… mmph… Let…mmph… GO!" The surfer girl finally kicked him back, forcing him to fall on his butt, "Geoff… we need some time apart…" Bridgette calmly says, trying to hold back her frustration.

"But Bridgey bear!" He pleaded.

"Geoff, please…"

"Are we breaking up?"

"No… no… we just need to spend some time away from each other for a little while. It's for your own good, sweetie" Bridgette assured.

Geoff sadly walks away.

C.C.

Bridgette "What is wrong with him? It seems all he ever cares about anymore is making out with me. Is my mouth all he ever thinks about? Why couldn't he be more considerate, sweet, and gentle, instead of just trying to tongue wrestle me! "

Alejandro "Not the ending I imagined, but perhaps the seeds are still sprouting"

After a few minutes of walking, he runs into Alejandro.

"You! You set me up, didn't you?" Geoff angrily yelled to the manipulative genius.

"Geoff, did you listen to my advice?" Alejandro asked sweetly.

"Yes…"

"All of it?"

"Yes!"

"My three qualities?"

"YES!"

"What about my other one?"

"What other one?"

"The one about, LEVERAGE?"

"I may have forgotten" Geoff said, recalling his advice back in Rapa Nui.

"Just remember, she cheated on you. Next time, remind her of that fact" Alejandro said as he walked away smiling.

C.C.

Geoff "I better wait a while when I can talk to her again, first. But it may be my only option at this point"

Meanwhile Bridgette sat angrily while Cody was chopping a tree next to her. The geek finally takes down the tree.

"Yes, there is muscle in the Codemeister after all" Cody proudly stated before rubbing his now sore arms, leaving the surfer girl chuckling. Cody then asks the queen bee, "Umm… Heather could I take a break?"

"Fine, Courtney, Sierra, chop the tree in pieces!" Heather instructed.

"Where are you going?" Bridgette asked Cody as he was walking away.

"I'm going to talk to Gwen"

"You shouldn't do what Geoff just did" Bridgette warned.

"This isn't about me, it's about helping Courtney"

"What?"

"I'm gonna ask Gwen to give Miss CIT her long overdue apology. That should at least make Courtney feel a tad bit better" Cody said proudly before walking off.

C.C.

Bridgette "Now there is a boy who has the traits I mentioned"

"Where's he going?" Heather asked angrily.

"To talk to Gwen about Courtney" Bridgette answered.

"Hmph, I'm gonna go listen in" Heather said.

"You shouldn't…" Bridgette was about to object but kind of wanted to eavesdrop too. The two secretly follow the geek.

**Rabid Skippers**

Justin finishes chopping down his tree.

"Timber!" He yells as the tree falls down in Tyler's direction.

"His name's Timber?" Lindsay asked.

"It's Tyle-OOF!" The tree fell on top of him, once again losing consciousness.

As Justin and Lindsay run to Tyler's aid, they see an angry grizzly bear recover from falling off the cut tree. The bear let out an ear shattering roar at the two. The duo scream as the bear takes notice of Justin's chiseled face. It walks up to him and starts licking it.

"Umm… you're affectionate…" Justin nervously stated. The bear then bites on Justin's shirt collar. "What are…" The grizzly then carries the model away, "AHHHH! SOMEONE HELP!"

"Jason!" Lindsay yells in a panic.

**Screaming Admirals**

Now that all the trees were cut down for the admirals, they proceeded to cut them into logs. Gwen continues to admire Duncan leading his team to removing the extra branches and doing a thorough job overall. She then notices a certain gap toothed geek approach her.

"Oh, hey Cody," She warmly greeted.

"Hey Gwen, could I talk to you in private?" The geek sweetly asks.

Gwen turns to Duncan and he just shrugged. So she went with Cody to a more secure location.

C.C.

Duncan "I'm not going to go all territorial and sabotage myself like Trent did every time she comes in contact with another guy. Besides, Cody was never considered a threat"

Cody takes Gwen to a secluded spot, unknowingly being watched by Heather and Bridgette.

"What did you want to talk about?" She asked skeptically.

"Courtney" Cody hesitantly said.

Gwen's friendly smile turned to a frown, "What about her?"

"It's just that, she is still down and out over you and Duncan so I thought it would be nice of you to just apologize for the way you took Duncan from her"

"I'm not proud of how I took him, but she needs to get over it"

**Bridgette and Heather**

As Cody and Gwen exchanged words, Bridgette and Heather move in closer behind some bushes to listen in.

"Think this is close enough?" Bridgette whispers just as the violet haired fan girl sneaks in between the two.

"Sierra? What are you doing here?" Heather asks, annoyed.

"If a tree falls in the woods and Cody is there to hear it, you'd bet I'd be there to record it" Sierra proudly reminds the two.

**Cody and Gwen**

"I know she needs to get past it, so I thought that by saying sorry, it would be a nice boost for her to continue pursuing greener pastures" Cody continues.

"Pfft, like she would ever forgive me" Gwen reminded.

"Of course not, and she will probably hit you if you try," Cody granted, "But deep down she will feel some sort of relief knowing the remorse you feel for her and I think it would help everyone out in the long run"

"What's in it for you?" Gwen eyes at him suspiciously.

"Probably that she will stop taking her insecure frustrations out on me" He responded with his patented gap toothed grin.

"I'll think about it"

"Thanks Gwen" Cody said as he turned to return with his other team.

"Cody, wait," Gwen halted him. As he turned to her, she gave him a serious look, "Do "you" approve of me being together with Duncan?"

There it was for Cody, his one moment where he can finally tell his gothic crush what he really felt about the delinquent. Cody just wanted to unload. He wanted to tell her what a jerk he was. He wanted to tell her that he is corrupting her just by them being together. He wanted to tell her that he did not deserve such a wonderful person. Above all, he wanted Gwen to be happy. So after a long pause, he finally looked up at her.

"Whatever makes you happy, makes me happy" Cody finally stated to the girl he loved more than the world itself.

Gwen smiled to the one boy who was more loyal to her than anyone she has ever known. She kneeled to his level and softly hugged him, "You're a good friend, Cody. I don't want to lose you like I did Courtney," She says as she gives him a short kiss on the forehead before walking away.

C.C.

Cody "Well… at least I finally got that kiss." He gave humble smile at the camera despite the sadness he felt that such a wonderful person going to the arms of the most undeserving jerk imaginable.

Sierra "Don't worry Codywody, I'll always be here for you!"

Bridgette "Poor Cody… How can someone so sweet go through so much pain? If I wasn't already with Geoff, maybe…"

Heather "It was for the best, now he can focus on me… a...and the team"

Bridgette, Heather, and Sierra all sneak away after listening in on Cody and Gwen's conversation.

**Screaming Admirals**

"So what was that all about, babe?" Duncan inquired.

"Cody wanted me to apologize to Courtney to settle our conflict" Gwen informed.

"Don't." The delinquent said sternly.

"What?" Gwen asked, shocked by the unexpected response.

"What we did was not wrong. What was wrong were all those countless times of her screaming at me, nagging at me, and dealing with all her bipolar crap. Sure people may think that I had it all, but when throwing lists, contracts, and lawyers at me, my pride will not let me concede that she was the victim in this circumstance. Look, maybe it could have been sorted out better, but our past relations ended for a reason. You and I were meant for each other and if Courtney has an issue with that, then it's her problem" Duncan reminded Gwen.

"I don't know…"

"Look, you are talking about trying to reason with an unstable psycho bitch who currently wields an axe"

"True" Gwen realized.

"Let's just finish this challenge and talk about this later" Duncan said, clearly wanting to end this.

"Fine" Gwen conceded.

C.C.

Gwen "Sorry, Cody… I just can't…"

Duncan "Besides, Courtney is the Achilles' heel of the Killer Captains, and we still need a win"

Chris, "Looks like the teams are wrapping up the first part of the competition. Now they will have to drive their logs down the river to the Sawmill. Who will build their shack first? Will Justin escape his grizzled fan girl? Well knock on wood… and find out here on Total… Drama… Luxury Tour…"
