The episode began with Millie standing with one foot on the stump while Priya began twirling a baton, "Duck!"
Priya swung her baton and Millie ducked before it could hit her head, "Jump."
Priya then swung it near Millie's leg but she jumped before it could hit her.
"Duck." Priya began spinning the baton again before the airhorn went off causing Millie to get hit by the baton and in the mess hall, Zee spits out his soda, causing him to start hiccuping.
"Challenge time." Chris' monstrous voice was heard.
We then cut to the final ten walking to the next challenge site.
"Man, was yesterday cashews, pecans, and almonds or what?" Wayne nudged Raj good naturedly.
"Oh yeah, all kinds of nuts." Raj chuckled.
"For sure, say what would you think was the craziest thing that happened to you?" Wayne asked curiously.
"Uh… the pudding shark." Raj said with a smile.
Confessional: Raj
"It was the kiss. It was totally the kiss." Raj chuckled nervously.
Confessional: Wayne
"The SHARK. Did he make out the shark too…" Wayne began before realizing, "No. he just doesn't wanna tell me about kissing Bowie."
He then gasped, "Does he think I'll be unsupportive. I gotta show him that I'm with him 110%, a hundred and twenty even. Whoa… I've never gone that high before."
Confessionals End
We then see the campers at a random area in the forest where a bonfire was being lit.
"Welcome to the challenge." Chris said happily, "Priya, Emma, please hand Chef your flags."
Priya and Emma seemed confused at this before handing the flags to Chef who then threw them into the fire, "No more Trout, no more Frog. The teams are now merged."
"And since you're all one team, only one of you can win immunity." Chris said happily, causing Wayne and Raj to look at each other in horror while Bowie just smirked in satisfaction.
Confessional: Bowie
"That's fine. There's only one of me." Bowie smirked.
Confessional: Priya
"It's way too early for the teams to merge. Ten players remaining and only one person can win immunity, this is NOT good." Priya said fearfully.
Confessionals End
"AWESOME! Ems, we're on the same team." Chase ran up to Emma happily.
"ARE YOU KIDDING?!" Emma roared furiously which made MK smirk.
Confessional: MK
"I may not be able to watch confessionals anymore… thanks for that Bowie… but I can still cause some mischief considering my teammates are probably really suspicious after yesterday." MK smirked.
Confessional Ends
"Let's get this party started." Ripper said competitively, "What's the challenge?"
"Like you Ripper. This challenge is very simple." Chris smirks.
"Awesome!" Ripper cheers, seemingly missing the subtle insult.
"Each player must bring me a cassowary egg." Chris explained.
"Uh… what egg?" Zee began before hiccuping.
"It's a bird." Emma said bluntly.
"A very large bird." Chef reiterated.
"You're gonna want to take this seriously, so listen up." Chris told the cast before Chef spoke again, "Cassowaries are six feet tall and have powerful legs that can release a powerful kick but their feet are armed with painful claws to slaughter the fools who dare to steal their eggs."
"Given how dangerous cassowaries are, I'm gonna suggest you partner up, that way if one of you gets cassowaried, the other can tell production where to find your remains." Chris smirked mockingly.
"We're gonna rock this challenge!" Priya said happily to Millie.
"For sure… small confession though, I'm terrified of birds." Millie said fearfully.
"Oh, no problem." Priya shrugged it off.
Confessional: Priya
"It's a bit of a problem, but I've been training her and she's sort of been getting better. She probably could've done so well during the last session if Chris didn't interrupt." Priya confessed excitedly.
Confessional Ends
We then see Ripper walk up to Zee, "Hey, wanna be teammates?" The former asked.
"Sure." Zee smiled before hiccuping, "We can be partners."
Confessional: Ripper
"Zee's decent for a nerd, but if I have to use someone to cover my butt, it's gonna be him." Ripper smirked.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to MK sneaking around behind a tree before talking to Ripper, "Look, we have a problem. Both of us were targeted by our teams for elimination a good amount of times due to both of our cynical worldviews but I think we can make an arrangement. At the elimination ceremony, vote for Raj."
"Uh… it'd take more than two votes to send Raj packing." Ripper reminded the thief.
"I'll take care of everything." MK smirked back, "Just try and get Zee on board."
Confessional: MK
"One down, and three to go." MK snickered.
Confessional Ends
We then see Bowie and Emma talking before Chase interrupts, "Hey Ems, wanna be-"
Emma stops Chase from speaking. "Never! We will never be partners! Not now! Not ever!"
"It's sort of sounding like we're actually over." Chase said with confusion, though that only angered Emma more.
"Ugh! We've been over for months!" Emma pushed Chase into a bush before walking to Bowie, "Bowie! Partners?!"
"You know it." Bowie smirked in pride before Chris blew his airhorn.
"Go get me the unhatched babies of psychopathic birds." Chris evilly smiled before all the pairs ran off, except for MK and Chase, the latter was getting out of a bush.
"Hey, desperate simp that no one wants, you and I are partners." MK told Chase who nodded happily.
"Let's go." MK said giddily before she and Chase ran off.
Confessional: Chase
"When girls insult your personality, it means they can't find anything wrong with the way you look." Chase smirked confidently before making a growling noise.
Confessional Ends
We then see that Wayne and Raj were walking along the forest when Wayne suddenly began speaking, "You know what I like most about our friendship Raj?"
"That we can have fun all the time!" Raj guessed giddily much to Wayne's annoyance.
"No."
"Uh… oh, how we can share each others' jockstrap since we're the same size?" Raj asked, hoping it was the right answer.
"No. Just stop talking." Wayne told his best friend before smiling, "It's that we share big secrets. Y'know, like how I ate a burger I found in the trash after hockey practice?"
"Hehe, on most hot days, my mom's car still smells like barf." Raj reminisced with a chuckle.
"And even though I was afraid to tell you that due to the cat vomit, I did." Wayne reminded his buddy, "So… is there something you wanna tell me?"
"Yes." Raj smiled enthusiastically much to Wayne's glee.
"Okay, I'm ready. Tell me." Wayne encouraged before Raj gasped and hid behind a bush to see that there was a nest of two eggs.
"Ah. Sweet." Wayne said happily before a cassowary leered threateningly behind them, making them scream in terror and run away, splitting up along the way.
Meanwhile, MK and Chase were walking together when MK finally spoke up, "So here's the thing, I need an alliance to help me stay in the game and I think I found the perfect partner, you."
"Really?" Chase asked in shock.
"Oh yeah." MK snidely remarked with a smirk, "My team is so close with each other that I'm kind of an outsider but I wanna help you in return by getting Emma on our side to eliminate Raj."
"Raj? Why him?" Chase raised a curious eyebrow.
"He has this ultra bromance with Wayne and is clearly starting to get cozy with Bowie." MK explained, "If we eliminate him, we get more power on our side."
"Wait, Bowie and Raj are dating? I'm not sure if we should break them up. Like, think of the social media potential we'll get if we support their relationship and-" Chase began arguing before MK rolled her eyes.
"You can tell Emma this big brain strategy was your idea and win her back by showing how good you are in this game." MK reminded the YouTuber.
"Deal!" Chase said eagerly, causing MK to smirk.
Confessional: MK
"That was easier than taking candy from a baby, literally." MK laughed.
Confessional Ends
Meanwhile with Zee and Ripper, they were hiding behind a rock as the cassowary slept in it's nest.
"Look at that sleeping nerd bird." Ripper smiled enthusiastically.
"Maybe we could grab two eggs without her even knowing." Zee smiled back before hiccuping, alerting the bird to waking up, causing Zee and Ripper to lean their backs against the rocks so the cassowary did not see them.
Confessional: Ripper
"Fart chunks. I should've known Zee's hiccuping would disrupt the bird somehow." Ripper grunted.
Confessional Ends
Zee began silently hiccuping much to Ripper's dismay before he noticed that the cassowary was starting to hiccup along with him, intriguing the fart monster before he smirked.
We then see Bowie and Emma walking around the forest as Emma was in mid-rant about Chase. "And then Chase ate my french fries."
Suddenly, Raj ran up next to Bowie much to his pleasant surprise.
"Oh hey." Raj smiled at the flamboyant strategist.
"Hey to you too." Bowie smirked back causing Raj to blush.
"Should I… give you a minute?" Emma asked before winking at Bowie and walking off.
"So I should've asked before kissing you, and I'm sorry if you didn't like it or-" Raj began nervously before Bowie stopped him.
"Stop, I really liked kissing your face but at some point in order to win the million bucks, I may have to kick you in the face. So can we just hit pause on whatever this is?" Bowie asked.
"Oh, okay. We don't have to I was just-" Raj began babbling before Bowie grabbed his hand.
"And when the game's over, let's go on a date." Bowie smiled enthusiastically before the two kissed again.
"Move! Move! Move!" Emma cried out before a cassowary began chasing the three teenagers, with Raj splitting up from Bowie and Emma as it did so.
We then cut back to MK and Chase where MK was busy sucking up to Chase, "Emma has forgotten how good she has it. You need to tell her that she'll never do better than you."
"You're right." Chase gasped in excitement.
"Give her this chocolate bar and say you don't care how bad her acne gets." MK smirked as he handed Chase a chocolate bar which he accepts giddily.
"If that doesn't show her how great I am, nothing will!" Chase smiled optimistically.
Confessional: MK
"Oh my goodness, he is so STUPID!" MK laughed hysterically.
Confessional Ends
Back with Bowie and Emma, the two of them were panting as they stopped to catch a breath from losing the cassowary.
"So… what was that about with you and Raj, huh? Huh?" Emma asked happily.
"We still need to find eggs. I'll fill you win while we walk." Bowie smirked before Emma started cheering and dancing much to her friend's amusement.
Confessional: Bowie
"Telling people secrets on Total Drama is a terrible idea but where's the fun in making out with a super hot guy if you can't tell anyone." Bowie smiled enthusiastically.
Confessional: Emma
"I think it's great that Bowie and Raj found each other. It's like, being in love, I miss it." Emma sighed wistfully, "I mean Chase and I weren't always bad, there were some good times."
Confessionals End
MK then came from behind the rock when MK turned to Bowie, "Bowie… a word?"
"I'll be right back." Bowie told Emma before leaving with MK when suddenly Chase came from behind Emma, much to her frustration.
Confessional: Emma
"What are those two up to?" Emma asked incredulously.
Confessional Ends
"I saw an unguarded nest just a few blocks away from here. I'll ditch Chase to help you find them IF you vote for Chase." MK bargained.
Bowie thought about it before smiling, "Lead the way."
Confessional: MK
"And thus the votes will be split between Raj and Chase. Chase, Ripper, and Zee will vote for Raj and Bowie, Emma, Wayne, and Raj will vote for Chase. All I need to do is determine how I want things to go down. Mwahahahahahahahahaha." MK laughed evilly.
Confessional Ends
We then see Raj heading to an unguarded nest with two green eggs, "Sweet. Two eggs. One for Wayner, one for me. Challenge is done."
Suddenly squawking is heard much to Raj's fear, "Wayne… is that you buddy?"
However, it was not Wayne but a cassowary that was immediately starting to chase Raj.
"YAH!" Raj screamed before running off with the eggs.
Back with Millie and Priya, they were currently holding one yellow egg each and running fearfully away from a cassowary.
"I think she's mad we took her eggs. Maybe we should give them back." Millie suggested.
"No. Remember the challenge, we need these eggs." Priya reminded her new BFF, "Let's pick up the pace and be ready to ditch this bird. Ready to sprint?"
"I am sprinting!" Millie wheezed.
"Really?! Okay, um… " Priya began before they were blocked off by a rocky wall.
"Oh no, it's a dead end." Millie cried out in horror as the cassowary cornered them.
"Priya, what are we gonna do?!" Mille asked fearfully.
"I know!" Priya smiled before getting on Millie's shoulders and began cawing at the cassowary who seemed more and more scared by the bird before running away. Priya began panting before letting herself down from Millie's shoulders and smiling at Millie, "My extensive emu and ostrich training taught me to be the bigger bird when dealing with their attacks."
"Wow… Priya, you totally saved us!" Millie smiled enthusiastically.
"Of course I did. You would've done the same for me." Priya reassured her friend.
Confessional: Millie
"Ehhhhhhhhhh, I don't think I could to be honest." Millie smiled awkwardly.
Confessional Ends
"This is a great plan." Zee spoke as he and Ripper hid behind some rocks with Zee being dressed as a makeshift cassowary, "You grab two eggs while I dance for her." He then did some dancing to prove his point.
"Well it sure won't work if you dance like that. You gotta move like you mean it. Get foxy with it, put that bird under a love spell. Go!" Ripper commanded before Zee walked up to the cassowary and began dancing for the bird, hiccuping as he did so, much to the cassowary's delight.
"You got her interest buddy. Now loosen those neck bones, put some sugar on them hip swings." Ripper smirked before Zee did just that and flapping his arms, causing the cassowary to start ogling Zee much to his discomfort.
"If you stop, that bird will rip you to pieces. Keep going." Ripper reminded the soda lover.
"Things are really getting serious. Let's take things slow and see how it goes." Zee suggested before the cassowary began snuggling up to him, "Whoa! It's working!"
Ripper then collects two eggs and smirks, "It sure is. Now RUN!"
Zee and Ripper immediately run off with Zee taking one of the eggs and the cassowary immediately running after them much to their worry.
We then see Bowie and MK together grabbing two eggs at the abandoned nest when Bowie spoke up, "So how do we determine who wins invincibility? Do we play rock, paper, scissors or what?"
"I'd rather just race if that's okay." MK smirked at Bowie.
"Ooh, that sounds much more fun." Bowie smirked back before they both began racing each other.
Confessional: Bowie
"I do not trust MK, I don't like MK, but letting her know that gains me nothing so I'll keep it mellow for now, and while she works on me, I'll work on getting allies. May the best man win." Bowie smirked as he pointed to himself.
Confessional Ends
We then see Chris playing on his phone when Ripper and Zee ran over with their eggs, "Immunity is ours!"
Confessional: Ripper
"I knew that MK was trying to manipulate me into voting off Raj, but y'know what, she has a point. He does need to go but I'm coming for her when I get the chance!" Ripper smirked at the camera.
Confessional Ends
"I am the winner!" Ripper celebrated as he and Zee made it to Chris, "Touchdown!"
Ripper then spiked his egg to the ground which made it crack and turn into a baby cassowary.
"Ooh, I'm sorry. I wanted an egg. That looks like a baby." Chris spoke with a teasing smile.
"Wh- But-" Ripper began stammering before taking Zee's egg and handing it to Chris, "How about this one?"
"Good enough for me. Ripper wins immunity." Chris said as he held Ripper's arm triumphantly.
Confessional: Zee
"Uhhhhhhhhhhhh," Zee said uncertainly.
Confessional Ends
Millie and Priya were next to run over to Chris who smiled at the girls, "Hello BFFs, I wish I could say your journey was meaningful but Ripper won immunity:"
Millie and Priya groaned in annoyance at this while Ripper laughed boastfully before the baby cassowary bit his leg, "YOW!" Ripper screamed.
We then see Emma and Chase still waiting together when Emma grunted, "Ugh! They're not coming back! Did you plan this?!"
"Me? What?" Chase asked with a nervous smile.
"Later." Emma rolled her eyes and began walking off before Chase ran up to follow her.
"Wait, I actually think we should talk about the vote. We should totally vote out Raj due to his connections with Bowie and Wayne. He could totally dominate in this game." Chase tried one of MK's suggestions to woo Emma.
"Are you kidding me?! Bowie's my friend! I can't do that to him!" Emma cried out incredulously.
"Yeah… but… if it comes down to a friend or a boyfriend, who would he choose?" Chase reminds the blonde, much to her surprise.
Confessional: Emma
"Did Chase just say something… logical?" Emma's eyes were wide in shock.
Confessional Ends
Raj was then seen running across the island when he suddenly hit a cliff side and was surrounded by the angry cassowary chasing him, "I got nowhere to go. Time to aim for defense on the blue line."
Raj then began grabbing the cassowary's neck to try and tackle it but the cassowary just lifted the boy's shirt over his head to block his vision and began standing on top of him.
"Raj! I lost the cassowary!" Wayne cried out in concern before witnessing the cassowary trying to harm his friend and gasped, "I'm gonna save you buddy!"
Wayne then began wrestling with the cassowary holding his friend down which caused both Wayne and the bird to start tumbling down the mountain. The bird landed safely on the ground but Wayne looked worse for wear as he landed on the ground.
The bird just scoffed before walking off while Raj just looked on in horror at Wayne's condition.
We then cut to almost all of the contestants minus Wayne and Raj at the area where Chris was before the host asked, "Where are the Hockey Bros?"
Suddenly they heard panting and saw Raj leaning an injured Wayne against his shoulder, "Guys! You gotta help me with Wayner here! I think he's really hurt!"
Bowie gasped in shock as he ran over to the Hockey Bros, "Raj! What happened?!"
"I was being attacked by a cassowary and Wayne tried to save me. It was an accident, I didn't mean for it to happen." Raj spoke with tears in his eyes.
"It's not your fault. The cassowaries are just bad hombres." Bowie tried to reassure his kinda-sorta boyfriend when Chef walked over and gasped in shock.
"What happened to Wayne?" Chef asked curiously.
"He was attacked by a cassowary and fell down a mountain." MK explained.
"We might need to get him to a hospital." Chef told Chris.
"That seems a little extreme." Chris said before Wayne plopped down on the grass making him relent, "Fine but Ripper has still won immunity and someone else has got to go along with Wayne."
"Wayne, before you go. There's something I gotta tell you." Raj turned to his hockey buddy.
"Oh, I'm listening." Wayne smiled despite his injuries.
Raj turned to see everyone else staring at them but spoke anyway, "I kissed Bowie! I'm gay!"
"Oh buddy! Thanks for telling me!" Wayne smiled before embracing Raj.
"You're my best friend. Of course I'm gonna tell you." Raj hugged his best friend back.
"Whoa. Bowie and Raj are a couple!" Zee said in amazement.
"I totally called it. Ship goals." Priya clapped her hands excitedly, "They're so much better than Duncney."
"What?" Millie raised an eyebrow.
"Alright Wayne, it's time to go." Chris said formally as the paramedics hauled Wayne onto a stretcher and began wheeling him to a helicopter.
"Goodbye Wayne! I'll win it for us!" Raj saluted his best friend who saluted back before the helicopter flew off.
"Alright campers. Get ready to vote and I'll see you at the elimination ceremony." Chris said happily.
We then see Millie and Priya at the steps of the cabin as Priya was sulking over Ripper winning immunity, "Is it too late to bring Damien back?"
"Now that Ripper's gone, who else are we gonna vote out?" Millie asked curiously, causing Priya to ponder before a high-pitched voice was heard.
"I think I can help you with that." Bowie smirked at the BFFs who raised an eyebrow at him before he spoke again, "So tell me, how do you two feel about Chase?"
We then see that the final nine were walking to the elimination ceremony and once they made it to the campfire, they sat down on their stumps.
"Campers, tonight we're sending someone home with Wayne and while it may not be the person who deserves it the most, it's always fun to fantasize who it could be." Chris smiled.
"Bowie, you ditched Emma and left her alone with Chase to find eggs with MK." Chef said in a lecturing tone.
"Wait, she had to put up with Chase for how long?" Bowie asked in shock when he realized what happened.
"Millie, you partnered with Priya and she was the one who did most of the heavy lifting. Lotta people would kill to be in the merge like you right now." Chef told the average girl.
Millie looked at Priya worryingly to which Priya gave her a thumbs up.
"Raj, you came out as gay in front of everyone. Not sure how accepting your fellow castmates are gonna be." Chef called out Raj next.
"It's 2023, no one cares anymore." Ripper rolled his eyes in annoyance getting rare looks of respect from his fellow castmates.
"Chase, your pestering of Emma annoys her a lot. If I were you I'd be worried." Chef told the YouTuber.
Confessional: Chase
"Whatevs. There's no chance I'm getting eliminated. I used my Chase Charm to convince Emma, MK, Zee, and Ripper to eliminate Raj…" Chase boasted before faltering, "I may have to explain to my subscribers how this is nothing personal against Raj later."
Confessional Ends
"Marshmallows go to… Ripper, Zee, Priya, Millie, Emma, Bowie, and MK." Chris said happily as Raj and Chase looked nervous to be in the bottom two.
Confessional: Bowie
"Even if MK doesn't vote with us. I still have Emma, Priya, Millie, and Raj on my side. Chase is so screwed." Bowie smirked menacingly.
Confessional Ends
…
…
…
…
"Chase, you're safe."
Chase smiled as he took his marshmallow before cheering so obnoxiously that not even Ripper was amused.
"WHAT?!" Bowie and Raj cried out in shock and horror.
"Raj, it looks like you won't be able to fulfill your promise to Wayne. You're going home." Chris smirked.
"B-But… how is that possible?" Bowie asked in shock before turning to Millie and Priya.
"Don't look at us." Priya said nervously with Millie shaking her head.
Bowie's eyes widened before realizing what happened, "Emma… did you vote for Raj…" Bowie asked in a hurt tone.
Emma was not used to hearing this type of tone from Bowie before gulping out, "Yes."
"Why?! I gathered the votes for Chase just for you and you… you…" Bowie faltered before narrowing his gaze, "Come on Raj. Let's get out of here."
Bowie and Raj began walking down the Dock Of Shame as Raj's confessional was heard in the background, "Well I got kicked out, my best friend got injured but on the bright side,"
Confessional: Raj
"At least I'm dating Bowie now… kinda." Raj admitted with an awkward smile.
Confessional Ends
Bowie and Raj then stopped at the edge of the dock when the Drone Of Despair clamped on Raj's head.
"Win for me Bowie!" Raj called out encouragingly before his voice faded and he flew into the distance.
"So two campers got sent home at the same time. What will next week bring? For me, a ridiculously large paycheck. For you, find out when we return on Total! Drama! Island!" Chris finished his outro.
Author's Note: I knew Wayne had to leave the same way as canon, but I felt Raj deserved a little more respect than what he got; so I had him get blindsided by MK, Chase, and Emma. Now Bowie will be the one harboring a grudge on Emma instead of the other way around which is so much more satisfying tbh.
