"Hey Izzy!" Owen greeted, "What's up?"
"Oh, hey Owen!" Izzy said as she ran over to him. Owen stretched his arms for a hug, but Izzy kicked him.
"My KIWIS!"
"I'm good! How's your day?" Izzy asked.
"Painful!" He said as he cut the cheese.
"Holy cow! Your farts are stinkier than usual!" She said fanning the stench away. "Are you nervous?"
"Nervous? No! I'm never nervous!" He said obviously lying.
"Are you sure? You have sweat stains on your armpits! And you stink! BIG TIME! Like a rhinoceros that blew up a public restroom stall!"
"Izzy! I'm fine." Then he looked off into the distance. "Look! A squirrel."
"Where? I'll fight it with karate!" She said running off.
Owen Confessional:
"I like Izzy! Never have fully gotten over her. But she can be so hard to talk to sometimes!"
Noah walked over to Owen. "You know what deodorant is, right?"
"Uggh... I just get so nervous around her! I don't know why!"
"It's because you love her, silly!" Emma said walking up to them. "Come on Noah, the challenge is about to start!"
"Okay, later Owen."
"Bye... I guess!" He started walking to the kitchen himself. Giving Emma and Noah space in the process. He passed Alejandro who was on the ground, then caught up with Gwen and Bridgette to see what was going on. "What happened to Al?"
"Heather punched him in the face and his gut. Then kneed him in the chest." Bridgette said while smiling.
"You seem happy about that." Owen said.
"I am! He's been deserving that ever since he got me stuck to a pole!"
"What he really needs though, is a good old' knuckle sandwich from Leshawna!" Gwen said. Both Gwen and Bridgette started laughing as they reached the kitchen.
Chris got on the loudspeakers. "If every person on your team is not here in 30 seconds, your team will be penalized!"
Suddenly, Izzy jumped out of a tree and landed on Owen's shoulders. "Hey Hizzy... I mean Kiz"
"It's Izzy!" Noah said, interrupting him.
"Hey... Izzy! How did that squirrel match go?"
"It was a tie!" Izzy said as she jumped off.
Chris walked out. "Where's the last one? We are missing one player!"
Everyone looked around to see who was missing.
"Heather... where's Alejandro?" Carrie asked.
"Uh..." she looked around. "Where is he!?" Heather questioned angrily.
"Is that him limping?" Cody asked.
Heather looked behind herself. Alejandro was limping in the distance. "Hurry up crippled! We don't have all day!" she shouted.
"Shut up!" He said faintly in the distance.
Chris looked at his watch and started counting down. "12...11...10."
"Go faster!" Heather yelled.
"8...7."
"I'm going as fast as I can!" Alejandro called back.
"5...4...3...2...and...1! Well campers, looks like the Crying Catfish get a 20-minute penalty."
"I'm going to kick his butt!" Heather shouted as she started running after him. Bridgette and Carrie held her still.
"Easy tiger!" Carrie said. "He's had enough. At least for now!"
Heather stepped back as Bridgette and Carrie released.
Alejandro caught up with everybody else.
"Good going!" Heather yelled.
"Me? You're the one who decided to kick me to the ground!"
"You...You...CHEATED ON ME!" Heather yelled. "And maybe you should learn to take pain like a champ! Not a wuss!"
"Remember my family code? NEVER the face!"
"I... DON'T...CARE! I don't care about your face! The best thing to ever happen to me on this STUPID ISLAND, would be to rip that nasty toupee off your head and to shred you to pieces! No offense Chris on the island. Seems better than Wawanakwa."
"None taken!" Chris said.
"Heather... tone it down with the threats." Carrie said calmly.
Heather sighed. "Okay... fine! But go fetch me a strawberry soda Alejandro!"
He shook his head no. "You can't make me!"
"It's true, only I can!" Chris said. "But since you're great with drama, I guess you could have one. Contestvant, go grab Heather a strawberry soda and grab me a pineapple one."
Alejandro sighed as he limped into the kitchen. Heather smirked.
"Okay campers, time to officially start the challenge! The challenge today will be a walk down memory lane for some of you. Two of you will have to build and ride a bike to where I and the rest of your team stands. Then, your team will have to find something special! So, Running Roosters, Giggling Goats, you have 30 seconds to discuss who should build and ride the bikes for the first part of the challenge."
"So," Courtney started, "I think me, and Noah should do it!"
"Why should you and he be able to do it?" Sugar asked.
"Because she's a C.I.T!" Jo started annoyed.
Courtney gasped. "I... was not going to say that! Noah and I should do it because we're smart and we can manage to build a bike!"
"So, are you calling the rest of us dumb?" Sugar asked.
"No! Well... No! I want to give you guys a break! Besides, me and Noah are BEST FRIENDS! RIGHT?"
"Sure, why not?" Noah said.
Courtney nudged him with her elbow. "That's the spirit!"
"I think Harold and Cameron should do it! They are really smart!" Kitty said.
"But do they have good leg strength to ride a bike?" Lightning asked.
"Uhh... probably not!" Blaineley said. "Maybe you should do it Lightning!"
"NO WAY! A geek would slow me down." Lightning said.
"Too bad you're doing it!" Blaineley demanded.
"You can't force him into doing it." Zoey said. "He gets to decide if he wants to do it or not!"
"So, who will be the bikers?" Chris asked.
"Lightning and Cameron!" Blaineley yelled.
"Noah and I!" Courtney yelled.
"Hey!" Lightning yelled. "I said I didn't want to do it!"
"Woops, sorry." Blaineley said. "Too bad!"
"Blaineley, we had a deal!" Zoey said.
"You did maybe, not me though!" Blaineley said.
"Blaineley! That isn't right!" Zoey yelled.
"Not for you," Blaineley said. "But I'm an antagonist, that's my job!" (love looking back at this line *cringes*)
"Not a very good one!" Zoey said. "You're just rude and annoying!"
"Whatever, just go away!"
Zoey rolled her eyes and walked away.
"Okay campers, enough of that! It's challenge time! Running Roosters, Giggling Goats, the challenge starts NOW!"
Courtney, Noah, Lightning, and Cameron all ran behind the kitchen to the junk pile. Courtney dug through it furiously to find parts.
"What are you doing?" Noah asked.
"Trying to win! And you?"
"Questioning life!" Noah remarked.
She sighed; annoyed by Noah. "Stop questioning and start helping!"
"Fine! What do you want me to do?"
"Here!" Courtney said tossing a bike tire to him. "Find the match to it!"
"Too late!" Lightning yelled. "Me and Brainiac have it!"
"Noah, hand me that metal bar!" She said as he handed it to her. She took It and with all her might, bent it until it was a 90-degree angle.
"It seems like she made a boomerang." Cameron said.
Courtney chucked the metal rod at Lightning. It hit his gut as he fell backwards. He dropped the tire. "You want to be next?" Courtney asked Cameron.
He gulped and tossed the tire to her. "Here."
"Thanks! Here Noah, find more parts."
Cameron Confessional:
"Courtney scares me when she's competitive! I think I peed my pants a little! Shoot! Shouldn't have said that on camera!"
"Don't worry Lightning! We can turn this around!"
"Why should I listen to you?" Lightning asked. "I'm the king!"
"Uggh! Do you want to win or not?" Cameron asked.
"Well what's your idea?" Lighting asked.
"I need you to hand me those sticks!" Cameron said.
Lightning picked up the two sticks that were on the ground in front of him and threw them at his head.
"LIGHTNING WATCH THE FACE!" Cameron yelled. "My glasses are fragile!" He took the sticks and made them into a 'T' shape. Then he plucked a long piece of grass off of the Island and tied it around the sticks. "Chris must've not mowed the island yet!" He lifted the finish design in the air. "Lightning, we have made handle-bars!"
"Cool." Lightning replied sarcastically. "Now what should I DO!?"
"Look through the pile and find more pieces for the bike!" Cameron said. "I'll put it together!"
"Okay!" He picked something up from the pile. "Here's a bicycle horn!" He said tossing it to him.
"Lightning... that's a turkey baster!"
"How much longer?" Gwen asked.
"17 minutes!" Chef Hatchet said as he continued reading the latest issue of the Celebrity Manhunt Magazine.
"Don't worry Guys!" Leonard said as he stood up. He grabbed his 'wand' and waved it in the air. "Time o' Time, I AM YOUR MASTER! Time o' Time, PLEASE GO FASTER!" He yelled as he froze.
"I don't think it's working!" Lindsay said.
"Because it's not!" Heather said.
"You need to feel the rift in time!" Leonard insisted.
Chef sighed. "DJ get your butt out here!" He yelled.
Chef DJ walked out. "What do you need, Chef?"
"Watch these kids! Make sure none of them run off!"
"Okay, but where are you going?" DJ asked.
"I'm taking a nap!" Chef said.
DJ Confessional:
"Me and Mr. Hatchet are becoming really close! He said I'm kind of like a son to him! Also, did you know that his real name is... NORBERT! How ridiculous? Will he see this?"
"Have a good nap!" DJ said.
"Noah how is the bike going?" Courtney asked.
"Uhh… I don't know!"
"How do you not know?"
"I've never rode a bike! I read!"
"Uggh! Let me do it then!" Courtney yelled.
"Wait I almost have it! I think." Noah said. "Wait... how do I put this tire on?"
"YOU'RE USELESS! LET ME DO IT!"
"Okay fine!"
Noah Confessional:
"Trust me, I know how to build a bike. My dad used to own a bike shop. I would rather let her do all of the hard labor instead though!"
"Lightning, we finished the bike!" Cameron called.
"Nice! Let's get out of here!" Lightning said as he jumped onto the first seat of the bike.
"Do you even know where we're going?" Cameron questioned.
"Uhhh..."
"Just drive to the front of the kitchen." Cameron demanded with a sigh.
"Okay, let's get out of here! See ya Courtney!" Lightning yelled.
Courtney growled. "HURRY UP NOAH! GIVE ME PIECES!"
"Where do we ride to?" Cameron asked as they pulled up in the front of the dining hall.
"Chris led the others through the forest. He was riding in a go-kart so I'd suggest to follow his tire tracks." Chef DJ said.
"Thanks!" Cameron said. "Okay Lightning, follow those tracks!"
As the two rode off, the camera panned over to Heather. She was sitting on the porch of the dining hall with DJ.
"So, how's Mama?" She asked.
"She's good, Heather! How have you been?"
"Me? Well... I could be better."
"Alejandro cheated on her!" Lindsay said.
"Shush!" Heather demanded.
"Oh... GOOD!" DJ said.
"What?" Heather puzzled on why DJ thought of that as a good thing.
"You're too good for him!" DJ said.
"Hey, I'm sitting right here!" Alejandro said.
"And?" Heather asked.
"I have an idea!" Lindsay said. "Do you have Instagrand?"
"Yeah, but why?" Heather asked.
"We could all have a group chat! You know, me, you, DJ, Beth, Bridgette, Tyler, Geo..."
"Okay Lindsay, we get it!" Heather said. "And it's not too bad of an idea."
"Yeah!" DJ said. "We could all keep in touch!"
Lindsay Confessional:
"This future group chat will be FANTASTIC! Just think about me texting Justin, Izzy, Owen, Katie and Sadie, Noah, Court..."
"So... I think we should make a game plan while we can!" Jasmine said, interrupting.
"Oh... Okay!" Trent said.
"So I was thinking Gwen and I could make the bike!" Jasmine said.
"Why you and Gwen?" Duncan asked.
"Well... uh..."
"Probably because as a team, we need to get to know each-other! Me and Jasmine haven't really had a chance to get to know, well you get it! So, I find it a great idea!" Gwen said.
"Nice! So that means the rest of the team will be searchers." Bridgette said.
Jasmine Confessional:
"Trust me, I'm with Gwen on the whole Need-To-Get-To-Know-Your-Team thing! But I actually want to give her some advice on how to deal with Heather. Because she does seem like a bully!"
Suddenly, a phone started ringing that was sitting by Chef DJ.
"Hello?" DJ said as he picked up the phone.
"Hey Norbert!" Chris greeted over the phone.
"Chris, it's me. DJ!"
"Oh, hey DJ are you with the Crying Catfish team?" Chris asked.
"Yeah! What did you need?"
"Have they decided who will make and ride a bike?"
"Yeah! In fact they just finished discussing it."
"Who will be staying?"
"Gwen and Jasmine." DJ replied.
"Huh, interesting choice! Put me on speaker-phone."
"Okay you're on!" DJ said.
"Crying Catfish, I will come get you and bring you to the halfway mark; where Gwen and Jasmine will have to ride in order to start the animal hunt. Gwen and Jasmine, as you know you'll have to build a bike then ride it to where your team stands."
"So are you bringing the other teams with you or not?" Heather asked.
"No! The Giggling Goats and Running Roosters are with Eva!"
"Why?" Gwen asked.
"She's visiting here because she's the reporter for the AfterMath. Now I've got to go! You guys have 11 minutes left on your penalty! See you guys soon."
"Bye Chris!" DJ said as he hung up the phone. "Well then."
Suddenly everyone started coughing as Chris flew by in his remodeled jet-pack.
"Chris! You're going to kill us with that thing!" Heather yelled, coughing.
"What's the problem with that happening?" Chris asked.
She rolled her eyes.
"We have to walk behind that?" Duncan asked.
"If it's fine for me then it's fine for you!" Chris yelled as they followed him.
Carrie Confessional:
"I'll be honest, i'm a pretty nice person! But I wish the most painful death on Chris. Whoa... that's DARK! Scratch that."
"Gwen and Jasmine stay here, everyone else, catch me if you can... and watch out for bears!" Chris said as he flew away.
"He's the worst! Isn't he?" Bridgette asked.
"Makes Alejandro seem pleasant!" Emma joked.
"Are you almost done?" Noah asked.
"Almost! I need a final seat though!" Courtney said. "Unless you want to share a seat!"
"Will it get us done quicker?" Noah asked.
"Yes!"
"Okay fine then, we'll share a seat! Just don't take up more than half!" Noah said
"Are you calling me fat?" Courtney asked.
"You're not really that type of person are you?"
"No! Learn to take a joke!" Courtney said.
They both climbed onto the bike. Noah on the right and Courtney on the left.
"You ready?" She asked.
"Yeah. Lightning and Cameron went to the front of the kitchen so maybe they got a clue from somebody on where to go." Noah said.
"Well then let's ride to the front!" Courtney said.
"Wait! How will we be able to work the pedals?" Noah asked.
"Uhh…" Courtney thought. She got off the bike. "Looks like we'll have to make an extra seat!" She walked over to the junk pile and grabbed a brick and roll of twine. Noah held the bike for her as she tied the brick on the bike with the twine. "All Done!" She yelled as she threw the twine to the junk pile.
"I'll drive!" Noah said.
"Really?" Courtney asked.
Courtney Confessional:
"I thought Noah didn't really care about the game! I remember in the 1st season, all he did was read. Then again, it has been like what? 10 years or so? People can change!"
"Sure." Noah said. "It's the least I could do!"
"Okay then." Courtney said as she jumped on the bike with him.
Noah Confessional:
"I'm doing enough to make sure I'm not voted off and that's it. I bet you if we lose today's challenge and I didn't do anything to help Courtney, I'd be gone! Besides, as I said to the one who is as tall as a tree, I'm here for my girlfriend."
"Let's go to the front of the kitchen. I think Lightning and Cameron went there for help."
"Okay!" Noah said as he rode through the thick, long grass. They pulled up in front of the kitchen as Chef DJ greeted them. Gwen looked at Courtney nervously and covered her face.
"Hey guys!" DJ greeted.
"Oh, hey DJ! Could you give us a clue on where to go?" She asked
"Follow the trail in the grass." He said.
"Is that supposed to be some kind of riddle or something?" Noah asked.
"No! I'm being literal." He said as he pointed to the grass. "Those Golf-kart tracks that lead to the forest, lead you to Chris. So follow them."
"Oh, Okay! thanks." Courtney said. "Let's go Noah."
Jasmine looked at Gwen with concern. "Are you okay, mate?"
"Uh... I don't know."
