(A/N: I'm really starting to enjoy Math Class- some obscure Greek God must be favoring me at the moment, because I've gotten an A on nearly every test I've taken so far. To make things more amusing, the teacher hates me, and he's pissed because he can't fail me. Instead, he just gives me one of those "I wish you would hurry up and get hit by a bus" looks. Although he has gotten me in trouble a few times, like when yesterday he sent me out of the room for flipping a page in my text book when I wasn't supposed to. Yes, you read that right. Well, I guess I'll get to the chapter now- enjoy!)
"Last time on Beyond the set:
We introduced the campers to their new environment and stomping grounds, this crummy old abandoned film lot! The fourteen battled for the role of team leader, which Duncan and Heather both ended up getting. We divided the fourteen up into two groups of seven. Now the real fun begins- with our first elimination challenge coming up, the drama will REALLY begin! So tune in for this cha- episode of:
CAMP TV:
BEYOND THE SET!"
(Intro)
In the crafts and services tent, Justin noticed that Bridgette, Gwen, and Sadie were all chatting together.
"Oh no," Justin groaned, "PLEASE tell me this isn't what I think it is."
"What?" Trent asked, "Bridgette hanging out with Gwen and Sadie? They're good friends, I saw them working together in the last challenge."
"That's what I was afraid of," Justin sighed, "think about it. I'm the leader of our guy trio, right? So if Bridgette is the leader of a girl trio… there's going to be trouble down the road."
"I don't see the big deal," Trent shrugged, eating his food.
"Says the guy who can't get a girlfriend!" Justin snapped.
"I can to! I just… haven't found the right girl yet, that's all," Trent said.
"Actually," Cody put in, "Justin has a point. I happen to know for a fact Gwen doesn't like me or Justin."
"Why doesn't she like you guys exactly?" Trent asked.
"Cody walked in on Gwen taking a shower last season," Justin smirked.
"IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!" Cody shouted.
"Right," Justin said, "you accidently walked into the girl's bathroom, and accidently hoisted yourself over the stall."
"Whatever," Cody huffed, "you're lucky I'm not lifting weights, or I'd totally give you the beat down."
"Speaking of beat downs, doesn't Geoff know about this?" Trent asked, an amused expression on his face.
"They weren't dating at the time," Justin shrugged, "but we're getting wayyy off topic here. What should we do about Bridgette's trio?"
"Nothing," Trent shrugged, "Gwen's on a different team than the other two. IF all three of them make it to the merge, then we'll act."
"Agreed," Cody said.
"Really, you don't think I should talk to her?" Justin asked.
"Heck no," Trent said, "you'll be labeled the "Possessive Boyfriend"."
"Says the guy who can't get a girlfriend," Justin smirked.
Trent glared at Justin.
"Okay, okay, you're right, sorry," Justin smiled.
Meanwhile, Heather was intently watching Trent and Lindsay talk.
CONFESSIONAL: Heather
"I'm not sure how Lindsay made it to the finals last season. Frankly, I don't think SHE knows how she did it. But here's what I do know- Blondie and Super Jock need to go. And I think I know just how to do it."
(End Confessional)
Everyone continued eating, when suddenly a loud crash was heard outside.
"What the hell WAS that?" Duncan shouted.
"Do I want to know?" Noah asked.
Of course, it was only a moment or two for everyone except Noah to jump up and run outside anyway.
"Of course," Katie sighed, "always the helicopter."
Sure enough, a helicopter piloted by Chris and Tweek was a few dozen yards away from the tent, crashed into the ground with smoke coming out of it. The host managed to pull himself out of the wreckage.
"Hey guys," Chris said, "hows it- HICCUP- goin? WE gonnsa haf a chall… challenge…-HICCUP!"
"I told him," Tweek said, climbing out of the helicopter, "no drinking and flying, that's what I said! Look what he- GAH!- goes and does!"
"Shuddup," Chris snapped, "go backsh to your hole, Tweeksh!"
"Dude," Duncan laughed, "that guy is WASTED!"
"Screw you, EDDIE!" Chris shouted, "I PAID YOU YOUR MONEY!"
With that, the host passed out and fell to the ground.
"Wow," Noah said, now appearing alongside everyone else, "just, wow."
"What do we do?" Bridgette asked.
"I know!" Izzy said, "I know the best way to cure hangovers!"
"And what would that be?" Trent asked.
"Better yet, why do you know?" Noah asked.
"Easy," Izzy smiled, "we get a bunch of C4, right? Then strap it to Chris, and BOOM BOOM!"
Everyone else looked at each other.
"Uh, Izzy," Gwen said, "that would KILL Chris."
"All the more reason to do it," Noah grumbled.
"Oh," Izzy said, "well, at least his hangover would be gone, right? Ha ha! Ha… ha… ha."
"C'mon guys," Trent said, lifting Chris up, "let's get him to the infirmary."
"Why?" Justin asked, "What has he ever done for us?"
"Justin!" Bridgette exclaimed.
"What?" Justin asked, "If he found you passed out drunk- actually, I'd rather not finish that sentence. Point is, that guys is a total-"
"I can still hear you," Chris mumbled, "just… let me lie here a minute, and we'll begin the challenge."
Trent shrugged, dropped Chris on the ground, and followed everyone back into the mess hall to finish breakfast.
"Okay kiddies!" Chris exclaimed once he had gotten back on his feet nearly an hour later, "Today we'll be doing the spy movie Casino Royale! A classic Bond film with gambling, dames, high stakes action, and LOTS of drinking."
"Dude, if we're doing a Bond movie, can we do something good?" Justin asked, "Preferably one with Sean Connery?"
"Sean Connery is the best Bond ever!" Katie exclaimed.
"Was I asking you?" Justin snapped, "Go back into your hole. While you're there, DIE."
Katie scoffed, then rolled her eyes.
CONFESSIONAL: Katie
"I don't see why everyone is so mad at me. That was all last season, right? Besides, I'm not this mean in real life!"
(End Confessional)
CONFESSIONAL: Chris
"For those of you wondering, she IS that mean in real life. We have videos. Uh, LEGALLY obtained, might I add."
(End Confessional)
"Okay," Chris said, "now, for the genre challenge, everyone knows a good spy has to have an AWESOME poker face. So, you'll be doing a three on three round of Texas Hold 'Em, last man standing. The six players will go until they run out of tokens- then, they'll drop out of the challenge. The last person wins a reward for their team in the immunity part of the challenge. So, while I set up the poker table, you guys pick whose going for each team."
"Okay," Heather said, "would anyone like to volunteer?"
"I'll do it," Noah shrugged, "Poker is probably the closest thing to an intellectual challenge we'll get around here anyway."
"I'll play," Sadie said.
"I guess I could," Bridgette shrugged.
"Okay," Heather smiled, "there's our three."
"Okay," Duncan said, "As team captain, I nominate myself to play. Zeke, you're in too."
"Sweet," Ezekiel smiled.
"Not fair!" Lindsay shouted, "You just pick whoever you want!"
"Duh," Duncan smirked, "that's why it's called being team captain. As for the third person… Gwen, how about you, babe?"
With that, Duncan put an arm around Gwen- only to be kicked in the groin.
"I'm taken, thanks," Gwen snapped, "and I'm not any good at poker."
"Then it's Katie," Duncan squeaked, "we've all seen what a good liar she is."
"I'll take that as a compliment," Katie huffed.
Half an hour later, the poker game was set up.
Sadie was easily drawn into one of Duncan's bluffs, and was eliminated.
Noah always bet minimum- instead of going high-stakes like everyone else, he merely studied his opponents.
Ezekiel was the next out- apparently since he was rich, he had absolutely no sense of saving your money.
Soon after Katie was eliminated, then Bridgette- leaving only Duncan and Noah.
(A/N: Sorry- I didn't want to type out an entire poker game. Do you know how annoying that would be? This would be like, a four chapter episode!)
"Okay twerp," Duncan grinned, "I say we go all in."
Noah, interestingly enough, looked under the table before answering.
"All right," Noah smirked.
Moments later, the two revealed their hands- Duncan had nothing, while Noah only had a pair of three's.
"Looks like Noah wins it!" Chris exclaims.
"You were willing to go all in with only a pair of two's?" Sadie demanded, "That's stupid!"
"Not really," Noah shrugged, "Duncan always shifts his left leg to the side half an inch when he lies, or in this case bluffs."
"What?" Duncan demanded, "No I don't!"
"You do," Noah smirked, "simple as that."
"Hate to break up the cat fight," Chris said, "but we do have to move along with the challenge. Now, Team Bowie, you guys earn the reward- better paintball guns. This next part of the challenge is simple- you'll be doing a classic spy shoot out. Team Bowie, your guns will have scopes, longer range, and more power. And, to make things better, they're automatic."
Chris then stepped aside to reveal a table laid out with paintball guns that nearly looked like actual machine guns.
"And Team Isaak, you guys get squirt pistols filled with paint," Chris said, handing Team Isaak their guns.
"Did you buy these at the dollar store?" Duncan asked.
"Yes," Chris smiled, "yes I did. Now, I'll give you guys ten minutes to spread out, then I'll announce the start of the challenge. IF it wasn't clear enough, if you get hit, you're eliminated, last team standing wins, yadda yadda yadda. Now, get going!"
While the teams were moving out of the tent, Heather managed to slip her hand inside Tyler's. When Tyler turned, Heather pulled her hand away, smiled faintly, and walked off.
CONFESSIONAL: Heather
"My plan, as I mentioned before, is simple. Make Tyler and Lindsay turn on each other. Hopefully Lindsay will get eliminated first- my main goal is to throw Tyler off his game for the next few challenges."
(End Confessional)
Once Chris announced the start of the game, Tyler went to go find Heather.
"I'll be back later, Lin," Tyler told the blonde, "uh, wait here."
"Okay!" Lindsay cheered.
A moment after Tyler left, Lindsay was shot with a paintball by Bridgette.
"Sorry!" Bridgette called, "For the challenge!"
Duncan and Ezekiel were attempting to be stealthy and sneak around the cabins. Unfortunately for them, Trent, Cody and Justin were nearby.
"Idiots," Justin smirked, firing at Ezekiel.
Ezekiel was hit at least twenty times, but Duncan managed to take cover behind a trailer.
"Crap," Duncan groaned.
Duncan waited a moment, leaned out from behind the trailer, and fired at Cody, eliminating him.
"Yes," Duncan smirked, "one down, two to-"
While he wasn't looking, Trent had snuck up from behind and shot Duncan.
"You were saying?" Trent smiled.
Elsewhere, Heather and Izzy were having a shoot-off, until the former saw Tyler in the distance.
"Izzy, cut it out for a minute!" Heather hissed, "I need a favor for letting you blow up those mines last challenge!"
"Oh," Izzy smiled, "okay! What is it?"
Heather walked over to Izzy.
"I'm going to talk to Tyler for a bit," Heather said, "and I'm going to… hug him, okay? It'll look like I'm kissing him, but I won't be, so you can't tell anyone about it. Right when I hug him, you need to walk by, okay?"
"OK!" Izzy cheered.
"Remember," Heather hissed, "DON'T TELL ANYONE. And when you walk by, keep walking- don't let Tyler see you."
"OK!" Izzy cheered.
Moments later, Izzy had disappeared, and Tyler had made his way over to Heather.
"Hey," he greeted, "so uh, if you don't mind me asking, what was that in the craft and services tent?"
"Oh, that," Heather blushed, "look, sorry, I just… oh, you'll think it's weird. We better get back to the challenge."
"I'll think what's weird?" Tyler asked.
"Well," Heather said, "it's just… watching season one from home, I always sort of had a small crush on you."
"Oh," Tyler said, blushing himself, "it's cool, but I mean, I already have Lindsay-"
"You could do so much better," Heather sighed.
"Yeah?" Tyler asked, sounding a tad nervous, "Like who?"
"Like me," Heather replied.
With that, she pulled him in for a kiss. As planned, Izzy walked by, and Heather broke away from Tyler.
"Oh no!" Heather cried.
"Someone saw us!" Tyler exclaimed, "I cheated on- oh no, I'm dead!"
"Tyler, I'm so sorry!" Heather exclaimed, "I don't know what came over me- what if they tell Lindsay?"
"She'll be heartbroken," Tyler groaned.
"Wait," Heather said, "maybe… she won't have to find out. Maybe you can vote her off- but no, that would be wrong-"
"Wait," Tyler sighed, "maybe… you're right. This probably wasn't caught on camera. Maybe I can just vote off Lindsay. This never happened! She never has to know!"
"Okay," Heather sighed, "How are you going to do it, though?"
"I'll… ask Duncan," Tyler sighed, "oh man, I can't believe I'm doing this- I guess I have to."
A moment later, Heather shout Tyler.
"OW!" Tyler exclaimed, "What was that?"
"Sorry," Heather said, "but you needed to vote of Lindsay, and you haven't even lost the challenge yet."
"Oh yeah," Tyler sighed, "good point. I'll… I guess I'll go talk to Duncan about getting her sent home."
"OF course," Heather nodded, "again, I'm so sorry."
Tyler nodded, and walked away. After a while, Izzy returned to Heather.
"Was that good?" Izzy asked.
"Yep," Heather said, firing a shot at Izzy, "perfect."
With Izzy and Tyler out, only Gwen and Katie were left.
"What should we do?" Katie asked, "I'm not sure who's still in the game, so-"
"WE aren't gonna do anything," Gwen snapped.
"Sorr-y," Katie said, rolling her eyes.
While the two were arguing, Noah walked by nonchalantly and shot them both.
"You shouldn't talk so loud," he yawned, "your arguing was a dead giveaway."
Katie and Gwen, however, continued to glare each other down.
Suddenly, Chris' voice came over the intercom.
"TEAM BOWIE WINS IMMUNITY!" the host shouted, "Team Isaak, figure out who to vote off, and meet me at the tent in three hours, where I'll bring you to where our elimination ceremonies are going to be held from now on."
Later, Duncan and Tyler were talking.
"So you'll do it?" Tyler asked.
"Why should I?" Duncan asked, "You knocked me out last season!"
"Because… I'll join your alliance!" Tyler exclaimed, "You have the fact that I wanted Lindsay voted off as blackmail! I'll vote for whoever you say!"
"Well," Duncan thought, "alright. I'll do it. But you're in MY alliance with Katie and Ezekiel now, got it?"
"Yeah," Tyler nodded, "got it."
"Okay," Duncan smiled, "I'll go tell the other two, and it'll be done. Good to have you on board."
"Yeah," Tyler sighed.
Later, when Tyler was going back to the cabins, Gwen, Lindsay, and Izzy approached him.
"Hey," Gwen said, "we're all voting for Katie tonight. You in?"
"Uh, yeah, yeah," Tyler said, smiling at everyone, "of course!"
"Good," Gwen smiled, "us four should take down Duncan and Ezekiel with no problems after that."
"Yeah," Tyler muttered, "well, we better get to the tent."
A while later, Chris led the contestants to a stage.
"Okay cast," Chris said, "this is where all voting ceremonies will take place- the Gilded Chris Award Ceremony! You each have an electronic buzzer. Press the button of the person you want sent home. I'll tally the votes, and hand out trophies. Whoever does not receive a trophy is eliminated from the game, and cannot come back. I'll give you all a minute to vote."
A minute later, Chef appeared on stage, and handed Chris an envelope.
"Okay," Chris said, "looks like the awards go to… Gwen. Izzy. Duncan. Tyler, and Ezekiel. Lindsay and Katie, you two are on the chopping block. The final award goes to…

CONFESSIONAL: Tyler
"Yeah, right! I'd never do that to my Lindsay! I'll just tell of Heather and Duncan tomorrow! Woo!"
(End Confessional)
"The last award," Chris finished, "goes to Katie."
CONFESSIONAL: Tyler
(Sobbing uncontrollably)
"I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THAT TO LINDSAY! "
(End Confessional)
"Wow," Katie said, "really?"
"For reals," Chris nodded, "Lindsay, time to take the walk of shame."
"Wait," Gwen said, "how did-"
"OH well," Lindsay sighed, "later, guys."
Lindsay then walked down a red carpet, where the lame-o-suine was waiting to pick her up. Lindsay gave a wave goodbye, and got in. A moment later, the limo drove off.
"Well, that's all we have for tonight's episode," Chris smiled, "so tune in next time for what's sure to be an even BETTER episode of:
CAMP TV:
BEYOND THE SET!"
(A/N: Thinking about it now, wouldn't Beyond the Set work better for the World Tour? Whatever- I already have a name planned for that season, so I suppose it doesn't matter anyway. Well, hope you enjoyed that chapter- I'll update soon as I can!)
