Alright so I read the manual of making TD fics and I believe there's something in there about responding to reviews so.
Cody Fanatic: I had considered making Amazon's lose instead but I figured it'd work better how it did. Also while I'm not big on Sierra I do have some plans for her.
Fensey Wensey: Yeah, I'm not trying to make Noah this super OP God which is how some fanfics have gone about Noah.
Lord Gemini: Thank you! Yeah I considered including the Gwuncan kiss in this chapter but I realized it wouldn't flow well, it still happened though.
Anyway onto the episode where everything blows up in canon. Also if I don't include something that wasn't in the episode, I'm well aware, just assume it happened the same.
The episode opened with clips from the previous episode playing over the host, Chris Mclean's narration, "Previously on Total Drama World Tour, London, England, home to royalty, history, and some very hard buses. Crunch! Here, Heather went through a painful growing period, we said a surprised hello to Duncan and a shocking goodbye to Alejandro. And last but not least, Duncan and Gwen had a steamy private moment that wasn't completely private. It's almost as if someone broke a lock on the bathroom door on purpose just so this would happen. But who's got two thumbs and would have done that? We've got nine competitors left and a million dollars on the line. Whose game is getting old and who's strong enough to grab the gold? Find out right now on Total. Drama. World Tour! Opa!"
The episode opens in economy class. Where Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot, the losers of the previous episode reside. The 4 members of this team are currently asleep, Owen in particular appears to be having a nightmare of sorts
"Noah! Don't eat the poison stuff, it's poisonous! Ah!", he exclaimed, waking up Noah who was right beside him.
Noah rubbed his eyes then asked, "Uh, dude are you okay?"
"Oh sorry, I had a nightmare you were in danger, buddy!"
"Well don't worry, I'm still here"
Owen perked up, "Yeah!, we're gonna make it to the final 2, buddy!" He then hugged Noah tightly, causing him to scream.
Tyler, from the opposite side, looked worried.
Confessional: Tyler
"I might not be the best with brain stuff," he began, looking uncertain, "But I'm starting to think booting Al wasn't the best move. I mean Noah and Owen are super tight, and Duncan's super mad at me for peeking in on him and Gwen, and Owen and Duncan are tight too! Hopefully Noah will vote out Duncan, I can take him in a tiebreaker!"
Confessional End.
The episode then cut to the mess hall of the plane, as Chris was about to announce the next challenge, "Prepare yourselves for challenges of an amateur caliber. Because we're recreating the original Olympics. And we're heading to the birthplace of the Olympics right now, in..."
"Greece!", Courtney exclaimed.
"Atlantis", Sierra asked.
"Mount Olympics", Owen finished.
Chris answered all of their questions. "Wrong, fictional, and... what? We're going to Rome, Italy!"
Owen gasped, "Pizza Party!"
"Actually, Courtney's correct, the Olympics originated in Greece", Noah said, matter of factly
"Sorry, Noah!", Chris said, clearly not sorry at all, "But you don't know everything, they originated in-"
"-Greece. They're right.", finished Gwen
Chris pulled out a paper and looked furious, "Interns!"
As he said that 2 of his interns came over. "Everyone should probably hold on to something, everyone except you!", Chris said as he pointed at a black intern with black hair and a red shirt.
The scene than cut to the plane as the intern fell out.
Chris then gave the papers to a white-skinned intern with blonde hair and a blue shirt, "you might want to find some info on Greece!, quickly!"
The intern than ran off. "Greece it is!, heh heh", Chris said as he too walked off. A faint "Chef!, slight change of plans.", could be heard by the contestants.
Sierra then turned to Team Chris, "Prepare yourselves for battle!"
Tyler then laughed, "Oh yeah!, well you're going up against a pro athlete!"
"That makes one of us", sighed Noah.
Duncan then pulled his fist towards Noah, "Listen, I saw how you "performed" in the dodgeball challenge on the island. I'm not accepting you being lazy, got that!"
Noah then rolled his eyes, "Whatever."
Confessional: Heather
The queen bee sat in the confession cam looking angry. "I can't believe they'd kick off Alejandro! Not that I'm upset about that." She said with a faint blush on her face. "But how though, that twerp Noah was primed to be kicked off, he must've masterminded it, I'm impressed! But he's not gonna last very long, there's only room for one strategist on this plane, and frankly he doesn't intimidate me".
Confessional End.
Now in Greece, the contestants all waited for Chris to instruct them. "Welcome to the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. Home to many of the very first Olympians, who, as my interns have informed me, competed naked."
Owen sighed, "Alright time to drop the laundry.", he said as he reached for his belt.
Chris looked disgusted "No, no, no! That was just a quirky fact, not an order. There's no need to be a hundred percent accurate. Stay dressed. Very dressed. We only have to resort to nudity if there's a tie breaker. Today we're gonna do things a bit differently. Since Team Chris is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot is down a man, and Team Amazon is an all-girl team."
Cody loudly sighed.
Chris continued, "In order to make it fair, all of today's challenges will be one-on-one matches. Every victory gets you a gold medal. The team with the most golds wins first class tickets to our next destination. And second places wins a brutal elimination ceremony!"
"And silver medals. Right? Second place gets silver?" Owen asked.
Chris answered "There are no silver medals. Just gold."
"Uh but at the Olympics-"
"Just gold! That's it.", Chris continued, "Our first historic event is a Grecian scavenger hunt. The inside of the Odium of Pericles is filled with maze-like rows of huge columns. Players must search through this ancient forest of columns and return with the Grecian treasure that awaits you inside. First one to do so takes the gold. So, who's going in?"
"Me!", said both Gwen and Duncan simultaneously, they then realized their mistake and started to take back their words.
"Gwen vs Duncan it is." Chris said.
"Wow! That is sooo fun!", Courtney said nervously.
"What's the big deal?", Duncan said walking up to Chris, "Let someone else do this event!"
"My decision is final!", Chris said, annoyed.
Duncan mumbled angrily
"What was that!" Chris exclaimed.
"I didn't say anything.", Duncan said, looking the other way.
"And you won't say anything else until the Olympics are over. Between now and then, you can either zip it or sing it. That'll begin to make up for the songs you missed while you were in breach of your contract. And if you speak instead of singing, you'll earn a lash from Chef's Olympic towel."
"Ooh a towel! I'm so scared!", Duncan said mockingly.
"You should be. Exhibit A.", after Chris spoke, Chef lashed Duncan as he screamed in pain.
"Shucks", Chris started. "Really should have sung that ow, bro", Chef than lashed again.
"Owwwwwww", Duncan sang.
"Much better", Chris stated as he tossed shields to both Duncan and Gwen.
"Uh why do we need these?", Gwen asked.
"These authentic Spartan shields will help you in your treasure hunt. For the treasure you seek is tied to a Erymanthian boar."
The boar growls as Chris continues, "Good luck to you both. Duncan, Chef will be following you, so be sure to sing it if you gotta say it. Chef, sound the Spartan battle horn"
A kazoo plays as Chris groans. "Ugh... that's the Spartan battle horn? For reals? Just go already! The rest of you, follow me."
"We're not going to stay? And watch? Closely? At all times?", Courtney asked, rather possessive.
"Nope. Time to flip channels. Just like the real Olympics.", Chris said.
"Pankration is an ancient Greek martial art with no rules. Last man standing wins the gold.", Chris said, explaining the rules to the game.
Owen looked excited, "Come on buddy!, we can take them!", as he hugged Noah as Noah groaned.
"Wait!", interrupted Tyler, " I was on the wrestling team in grade school!"
"Sure, Tyler, great, whatever", said Noah looking to get out of wrestling.
"Yes!", Tyler said excitingly.
Confessional: Noah
"Why did it have to be sports!", Noah said miserably.
Confessional End.
The results of the match were as follows: Cody was immediately taken out by Owen's gut, Sierra, in anger proceeded to attack Owen, Courtney attacked Tyler and the Amazons were looking to win until Cody came back in after being thrown by a bear. Courtney proceeded to insult him which caused Sierra to attack her. In the end both fell down as Owen went on top of her, giving Team Chris the win.
Around the same time, the event between Duncan and Gwen ended, with Gwen as the champion.
"Welcome to the hurdles event. The ultimate test of speed and flexibility. Players must leap higher and higher over these hurdles while they race for the finish line. First one across wins the gold. And since Heather and Noah are the only two yet to compete, they'll be going head to head", explained Chris.
"Are you sure?", said Noah, "maybe there's someone else who can-"
"Nice try, but you're in"
"Aw, don't worry buddy! I'm sure you'll do great!", said Owen.
"Yeah, right, way to vote out your star athlete before the big game!, said Heather, being condescending.
"But I haven't been voted out!", shouted Tyler.
"I wasn't talking about you,"
Tyler looked aghast. "Look, I get you're mad that your boyfriend was voted out, but do you have to take it out on the rest of us?", snarked Noah.
Everyone laughed as Heather looked mad with a faint blush on her face.
"Start!", shouted Chris.
The game began with Heather speeding ahead jumping over every hurdle with ease and finishing quickly as the Amazons cheered for her.
Meanwhile Noah had barley passed 3 hurdles with Tyler looking disappointed and Owen wailing sadly.
"That wasn't even close! Heh heh, Amazons win another medal!
The episode cut to another location as Courtney started to speak "Okay seriously! Where is Duncan!"
"Duncan will join us as soon as he can. You know, if he's still alive"
""If"? What does that mean?!", cut in Gwen.
"Can we focus on the game, please? It's time for the dreaded tie-breaker!", said Chris, attempting to continue the challenge before being interrupted again by Courtney.
"One sec, Chris. You sounded really concerned there."
"Well, I-I know how you feel, so..."
"You know how I feel? Like, you get it? Or like, you feel the same way?", said Courtney accusatory.
"Uh... look! Wings!", Gwen said, deflecting the subject.
"Attention, please! Chef spent over one hour building two sets of wings out of wax and the feathers we find in the planes engine. One member from each team must strap on the wings and take flight. All the way up there. Whoever snags the gold medal out of the sky wins the Olympics and first class passage for their team.", explained Chris.
"Uhhh, sounds kinda dangerous", said Owen nervously.
"Not at all", Chris said as the wings dropped and the intern in the blue shirt pulled it away, then came back to vacuum up the wings.
"So, who's going up", Chris asked.
"I'll do it! For all of youuuu!", Cody began before Sierra pulled him into a hug and thanked him.
"Team Me? Super Hot Me? Who's going?"
" I'll do it. To the extreme! Hoo!", volunteered Tyler.
"And since it's a tie breaker, before you two strap on your wings, please slip into these authentic Spartan battle costumes.", ordered Chris as Sierra squealed in excitement."
The episode cut to Cody and Tyler now in their costumes. "He's like an angel", Sierra said, gushing.
"This is gonna be close.", said Owen, worried.
"Whatever, if we lose we'll just boot one of them.", said Noah, somewhat assuring.
Tyler gulped.
Confessional: Tyler
"I'm not going home today! Time for Tyler to the max!"
Confessional: Tyler
Chris fired the arrow and both teens started flying.
Tyler was in the lead of Cody, even though the Jock wasn't as athletic as he claimed, he could still outclass Cody. In a different situation where Cody had more motivation to keep flying maybe he could be at evens but this was not this situation.
However, as Tyler got close, the wings started to molt.
"Are they supposed to do that", asked Owen. "I highly doubt that." said Noah.
"Fly, Cody, Fly!" cheered Sierra.
Despite the molting, Tyler's motivation to stay in the game just barley managed to give him the win as he snagged the medal.
"Team Me wins!, so the Amazons will be going to the elimination room. For real this time.", Chris said as he laughed.
The episode cut to economy class where the Amazons were.
"So, Sierra, you're still down to vote Heather, right?", asked Gwen.
"Hmph", Sierra said, glaring at Courtney. She then proceeded to walk away.
"What's her problem?", asked Gwen.
"Ugh, Sierra's just upset I insulted her precious "Cody", big whoop! He's easily the weakest member of our team, he's the reason we lost today!"
"Look, we can't forget about Heather, we have to get her out for real this time!", Gwen said.
Courtney simply looked down.
Confessional: All 5 Amazons, baby!
We see Cody, hesitantly voting for Sierra. "Chris wouldn't reveal our votes again? Right?"
It then cuts to Gwen, "Heather.", she said, firmly voting for her.
Heather was next, "Sorry Cody, but you cost us the challenge, besides with you gone, Sierra won't be distracted anymore, and I can get rid of Gwen next!" Heather explained, stamping the Cody passport.
"This is for Cody!", Sierra said aggressively stamping the Courtney passport with anger.
Finally we cut to Courtney with 2 passports in her hands, she ultimately decides to stamp one, she then begins to speak but the episode cuts to the elimination ceremony.
Confessionals: End
"So here we are. Let's look at why. Sierra, attacking your own teammates, really? And Courtney, you should've been more focused on the challenge instead of insulting a fellow women.
"Hey!", yelled out Cody.
"Moving onto you Cody, you blew it big for your team at the final hour. Heather, you won your challenge, but your 3 season track record is starting to catch up with you."
"And with just 2 votes against him-"
The entire team gasped as there was only one "him" on the team.
"Cody! You've been eli-"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WHY CODY?!" yelled out Sierra, "WHO DID THIS?"
Heather decided to use this to her advantage, "Wow, Gwen, voting out the guy who's crushing on you? Real low move."
Gwen then spoke out defensively, "I didn't vote for him, I voted for-"
Sierra then slapped Gwen, knocking her out cold. She ran up to Chris. "Chris, you're not gonna eliminate him, right? This is just a fake out, RIGHT!"
"I might've changed my mind if it was someone in a bit more... drama, and Cody, wasn't to say the least. But don't worry Cody, you'll also be sharing the drop with this intern!"
Chris then shoved both Cody and the intern out of the plane. Sierra then started to sob loudly on the ground.
Confessional resumed: Courtney
Courtney had stamped the Cody passport, "Look, Heather might be the most infuriating person on the team, but she's atleast useful in challenges, Cody cost it for us today, so I'm voting for him."
Confessional end: Courtney
"Will Courtney find out about you-know-what,"
"Wait what is he talking about?", asked Courtney
"And who's going for the next drop. Find out on
Total
Drama
WORLD TOUR!
So, that elimination might have been shocking huh?
Cody simply didn't have a place in this story. I was gonna save his elimination potentially all the way up to the merge, but I realized it made most sense to boot him here. Courtney might hate Heather, but she likes to win, so she'd likely keep her around over someone who lost the challenge.
Overall this episode was largely similar to canon. I considered skipping to area 51 but I ultimately decided not to. As the story goes on more divergences will be made.
With 2 of the canon final 3 gone. Things are certainly shaping up to be different. Make sure to review! I'd like to hear your feedback!
