Night #2 – Musimental Contestants Building
"Do I really have to do an intro?" Candela whined, looking all haggard from different kinds of commotion.
"Yeah." Said the director off-screen, in which it was a female.
"Thanks, but no thanks." The hostess shook her head. And then muttered something that the camera didn't even hear. "So last time, our remaining seventeen contestants had performed in various parts. Eleven of them in a classic Disney song,"
A quick video of the eleven performing Be Our Guest was playing on the tv.
"…and the other six all performing in three different duets."
Three different scenes of the three duets were now showing on screen.
"We also got a glimpse of our newest intern Dustin, and his secret little rivalry with Hah."
The next scene shows Dustin arguing with an off-screen Hah in the beginning of the episode.
"And of course, the teams had more drama."
The Breakers' donut scene was shown, which was Gabe giving a donut to Evander, then it was cut off to the part where the Repeaters were: Amanda stood between Sal and Spear, who looked like they were about to start a fight. The Heirs' scene was when Vivianne got hit by a box and everyone looked kind of displeased at her comment.
"What's gonna happen today? Or tonight? And what the hell did I ate earlier that made me look like a drug lord? Find out on Total Drama: Musical Impact!"
Episode 4: I've Got My Eye On You
"It's just a game after all."
Contestants Room #1 (Sal and Olivia)
In the first room, Sal was sitting on a chair whilst mixing his cup of coffee in the study table. Olivia was busy organizing her bed for the night.
"So, how was conjoining with your crew?" Olivia asked. "I earwigged from Amanda and Arreis that you all have problems and matters."
"Not good at all." Sal shook his head. "Spear thinks I'm crazy, Amanda and Arreis seem suspicious, Oli is, you know, gone, and well Meredith betrayed me now."
"WHAT?!" Olivia stood in disbelief. "Meredith grassed you? That's alarming!"
"Yeah. I think it's best if we stay away from her and get some new members for our clan." Sal suggested.
"I contemplate on that recommendation…" Olivia sighed before finally saying something shallower. "I'm so sorry for your loss."
Sal pulled her into a hug, before the girl left the room.
"Where are you going, Liv?" Sal asked but Olivia turned suspiciously back at him.
"I'll attend a lineup conference." Olivia answered. "And please don't refer to me as that. You're just one of my comrades."
She shut the door.
"Just one of your comrades, huh?"
Confessional: Is That Real?
Olivia (BB): Like I alleged, I earwigged Amanda and Arreis a while previously. And when I eavesdropped a bit, Amanda mentioned that Sal grassed Meredith. I have to investigate this far along. And with that, I refuse to have conviction with Sal, but I don't plot to rawhide it for that elongated time.
Sal (RR): Yes! Now with Olivia at my side, we will form an unstoppable alliance that can make me enter the final five and Spear will just have to die in a hellhole where he will not climb back up. I wonder who I'll get next, hmm, Clayton seems pretty tough, so I'll go for him.
End confessional
Contestants Room #2 (Spear and Vivianne)
Vivianne entered the room with exhaustion from meeting someone from the other team, and from running to the mess hall to grab some food.
"Where have you been?" Spear asked, who was happily enjoying his meal of hot chicken soup and a cup of ice tea.
"Just checking up on Faith to see if she's alright." Vivianne answered to the green haired boy. "She seemed lonely."
"Then how come Xavier's not with her?" Spear asked.
"He went with Mairead somewhere, I don't know." Vivianne shrugged. "Oh, and I have a question for you."
"What is it?"
"Why do you have to ask so many questions and why can't you just keep your big fat mouth shut?" she raged.
"…Sorry." Spear apologized. "I can really tell that you really hate me now."
"Yup." Vivianne nodded as she opened her cup of noodles she got room the mess hall. Chef wasn't there to cook so she had to go to the self-service station. "Sooooo true."
Confessional: Is That Bad?
Spear (RR): You know what? I'm never gonna get any friends in this season. I should probably just stay away from everyone else at this time being.
Vivianne (HH): I know that Spear knows that I hate him. But seeing him speak to me like that since the day before is making me think that I might have been looking on his wrong side this whole time. Maybe he isn't that bad as I was thinking.
End confessional
Contestants Room #3 (Gabe and Meredith)
Gabe was on the hallways until he stumbled on his room. Something doesn't sound right, since he can hear sobbing, crying, and sniffling coming from the other side of the room. Gabe opened his eyes wide and entered the room, only to find Meredith curled up on her bed, her face buried in her hands.
"Meredith, what happened?" Gabe ran to the historian and wrapped his arms around her, in attempt to comfort the poor girl.
"I-I…" Meredith cried. "I didn't betray him!"
"Betray who?" Gabe wondered.
Meredith refused to answer and just focused on her cries of agony. Gabe shook his head, setting his thoughts aside and kept on comforting his roommate.
"Shh. Don't worry about it too much, Meredith." Gabe assured. "Who knows maybe there could be a team switch."
"I-I don't know anymore." She quivered. "I want to give up…"
"No, you can't just simply give up like that!" Gabe told her, as if he knew what happened to her but truthfully, he didn't. He sighed and just rubbed her back, attempting to ease her crying for a bit.
"I'm gonna get voted out soon anyway…" her cries soon becoming into a halt.
"Look at me." Gabe said, and Meredith turned to face him. He felt bad for her, seeing that her face was all red and puffy and her eyes were red from crying a lot. "You are not going home yet. Listen, just stick with me, and you'll be fine."
"B-but, w-we're in a d-different team…" she stuttered, tears streaming her face, but she wiped it off quickly.
"I know. We can manage." Trying to make her feel more secure, he smiled at her then kissed her forehead. Meredith wrapped her arms around his neck for a hug.
"I know we haven't got to know each other more b-but thank you for helping me like this."
The easy-goer smiled and returned the hug. "Just remember, we'll be okay. It's just a game after all."
Confessional: Is That True?
Gabe (BB): I want to help Meredith for as long as we're still in the game but the fact that we're on different teams kinda disturbs me. How will I help her now? And who is she talking about 'him'?
Meredith (RR): Gabe is so sweet. I know he doesn't see me as a friend yet but at least he was still there to comfort me when I need him… *blushes*
End confessional
Contestants Room #4 (Samuel and Amanda)
Samuel was in his bed, tuning in his favorite acoustic guitar. Amanda on the other hand, was pacing back and forth, clearly in hype beast mode right now.
"UUUUUUGGGGGHHHH SAMUEL, DO YOU MIND!" Amanda yelled. "I'M TRYING TO THINK STRATEGY HERE!"
"Sorry, but no can do, Mandy." Samuel shook his head and continued on playing his guitar.
"How'd you know my nickname?" Amanda tilted her head in disbelief.
Samuel dug deep into his brain to look for something to say but nothing popped out.
"Long story I guess…" Samuel muttered as if it sounded like a question.
"Wooooow, I'm conviiiiiinced…" Amanda rolled her eyes sarcastically. "You need to do more than that to make me believe you, you colossal idiot from first glance!"
"Owwwwcheeeeeeeeewaaaaaaawaaaaa!" Samuel whined sarcastically like a Breadwinner and did his best to make a crying baby face but of course, he failed.
"Don't give me that look you buffoon!" Amanda snapped.
"You're the one screaming buffoon…"
"No I'm not!" Amanda retaliated.
"Why do you always have to act like that?" Samuel huffed and crossed his arms. "It's… not right! Especially for your team! They need to have rightful leader. If you weren't so selfish and defiant, that would have been you!"
Amanda stopped pacing for a bit and sat on her bed, thinking about the words that had just hit her.
Confessional: Is That What I Think It Is?
Amanda (RR) Just by hearing that, I think I need to reconsider a lot of stuff…
Samuel (BB): Amanda here, has a lot more catching up to do. *crosses arms*
End confessional
Contestants Room #5 (Xavier and Faith)
Xavier was nowhere to be found in the room, and Faith on the other hand, kept on staring at the ceiling, whilst laying down on the bed. After for about a minute or so, she fumbled in her backpack and brought out her white phone, swiping in the notification message that she received.
"Oh boy…" Faith muttered to herself as she opened the message to see who was it from.
"Everything all right there?"
The percussionist took a deep breath and made a quick reply.
"Do I look like someone that will answer your question?"
She waited for several minutes for another reply, but nothing happened.
Confessional: Is That So?
Faith (BB): I don't know why my twin sister Kirsten become so concerned of me ever since I left. We always fight and argue, and we never even made up. I'll just let her set aside for now.
Xavier (HH): I kinda ditched Faith back there in our room but I have to go see Mairead. I need to tell her something important.
End confessional
Contestants Room #6 (Robert and May)
"You know what, Robert?" May turned to face her roommate who was sitting in his bed, fumbling about something.
"What?"
"I'm gonna get eliminated soon." May stated blandly.
"What makes you say that?" Robert asked, clearly uninterested.
"Look, everyone in the Heirs including you will be voting me off soon. I can't deny that fact."
"Or," Robert stood. "Maybe there won't be a voting session this episode."
"Huh?"
"Look." Robert handed her a letter.
Dear contestants,
There won't be a voting session this episode. Everyone will meet in the lobby 8:00 in the morning. I'm quite a weirdo, am I?
~Candela
"Now that's what I call shit." May chuckled.
"See? You could probably turn this around." Robert smiled awkwardly.
"Thanks?"
Confessional: Is That It?
May (HH): Why is Robert so nice to me all of a sudden? I need to find out quick.
Robert (HH): And what if May was the one getting eliminated this episode due to her performance? Heh, I doubt that would happen.
End confessional
Contestants Room #7 ( Oli and Kimmie)
Kimmie entered the room and sighed.
"Oli, I need some sleep right now- Oh wait. He's gone." Kimmie sighed again. "I need to get some sleep."
Just as Kimmie closed her eyes, a loud knock was heard at the door.
"Ugh, I need sleep!" she groaned.
"Uh, it's Arreis and Clayton!" Arreis' voice can be heard at the other side.
"Oh." Kimmie rubbed her eyes and went to open the door. She turned to see both of them, dressed in their pajamas, looking a bit tired.
Arreis grinned weakly, holding onto her sleeping bag while Clayton scratched his neck.
"What's shaking?" Kimmie yawned and stretched.
"We were thinking if we could sleep here for the night." Clayton told her. "The power's out for some reason in our room."
"Yeah, I hope you don't mind." Arreis shrugged.
"Don't worry, be my guest." Kimmie let them in and fixed a bed. "Here, since Oli's gone now, you can sleep in this bed, Clayton. Me and Arreis will share a bed."
Clayton nodded but Arreis looked somewhat flustered.
"I'd rather sleep on the floor." She grabbed her sleeping bag and settled it on the floor.
As soon as everyone was settled, they began to doze off.
"Night everyone."
Confessional: Is This Unusual?
Kimmie (BB)/Clayton (HH)/Arreis (RR): *the screen splits into three, with the trio falling asleep at the same time*
End confessional
Contestants Room #9 (Evander and Mairead)
"Well, I guess I'm on my own now." Evander frowned and laid on his bed. "Hmm, why would Gabe want me to join in his alliance in the first place…?"
Then before he could actually doze off, he grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil and wrote 'Plan A' on it.
The camera didn't want to show any signs of spoilers, so it cuts to the next scene.
Confessional: Is This Really My Plan?
Evander (BB): Yeah, is this really my plan? *scratches head and drops his pencil*
Mairead (HH): The reason that I'm not inside the room is because Xavier told me earlier during Samuel and Faith's performance to meet him outside the theater at night. Wonder what he could be up to.
End confessional
Outside the theater (Mairead and Xavier)
Meanwhile, Xavier was waiting outside the theater until Mairead suddenly pops up from behind him.
"Hello!"
"Gah!" Xavier took a step back. "Oh, sorry Maisie. D-didn't see you there!"
:No, I should be the one apologizing, hehehe." Mairead chuckled. "Anyway, I have finally made my decision for the both of us."
"What is it?" Xavier tilted his head.
"We're gonna vote May off."
"You sure about that?" Xavier asked but then just sighed. "It's a majority in the group I guess…"
"Alright." Mairead waved and left. "See you!"
"Huh? Oh, bye!" Xavier waved awkwardly.
Confessional: Is That All?
Xavier (HH): Mairead told me to meet her out there just for that? I was expecting more or something. *Shrugs*
Mairead (HH): So no one will find out who are we voting for. *nods*
End confessional
Day #3 – Lobby (8:00 AM)
All the contestants were gathered as early as a bird in the morning, as well as the hosts and interns.
"Alright, so will the six who performed in duets please come up in front?" Candela instructed.
Arreis, Faith, May, Robert, Samuel, and Spear did as they were told.
"For the Advanced Note," Don says. "We'll be counting the votes from our fellow readers. So if I call your name, I'm sorry but you are not the receiver. Let's start with…"
"Faith." Chris announces. The percussionist sighed and stepped back.
"May." Chef says. The figure skater frowned and stepped back like what Faith did.
"Robert." Candela said. Robert crossed his arms before stepping back.
"And Samuel." Chris concludes. "Arreis and Spear, one of you received five votes while the other received 2. Spear, for being quite agreeable from last episode and Arreis, being… well… Arreis."
The two nodded.
"The receiver of the Advanced Note is…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…Spear! Congratulations!"
Everyone clapped as Spear went to claim his Advanced Note form the hosts. Arreis just smiled, feeling happy for her teammate while Sal in the audience seemed displeased.
"And for the Noisy Note. Spear won't be part of the voting since he has no votes against him." Candela faced to him.
Spear on the other hand, made his way to where the others were sitting.
"Unfortunately, the receiver of the Noisy Note will also be our seventeenth placer for Total Drama: Musical Impact." Chef announces. Everyone gasped.
"Why?" Faith whined.
"Because the votes have placed a 'Musical Impact' on you."
…
No one laughed at Chris's joke.
"Oh well. If I call your name, it means your safe. First, we have Arreis…"
"Phew." Arreis sighed in relief and went back to the others.
"…And Robert."
"Yes!" Robert happily shouted and paced back to the others.
"Faith, May, and Samuel. One of you received one vote, two votes for the other, and four votes for the third." Candela says. "The votes aren't based on the contestants' choices, but the viewers decided this."
"Faith, you were here for being the weak link on your team." Chef explains.
"I know that…" Faith muttered.
"May for being a coward and also, for cursing in your previous performance." Don told her.
"Aw…" May looked on the ground sadly.
"And Samuel for not really helping your team." Chris crossed his arms.
"Oh." Samuel shrugged.
"So our first player safe for the night is... no other than Samuel!" Candela announced swiftly.
"Cool." He smiled for a split second before heading to the rest.
"Faith and May. One of you will be safe while the other will leave the competition." Don said. "Without further ado, our seventeenth placer for Total Drama: Musical Impact is…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…May. I'm sorry."
"I knew it…" May buried her face in her hands and cried. Faith rubbed her back.
"Shh, don't worry. It's just a game after all." Faith assured.
"Y-yeah, I guess so." May forced up a smile. "I guess I'll be seeing you guys then."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever, get out." Chris rolled his eyes and pushed her off the theater.
"And as we en-"
"TEAM SWITCH!" Candela yelled randomly. "If I call your name, please come stand to my left."
The contestants looked tensed. Some of them loved their old team but others hated it. It was a mixture of emotions.
"Evander, Amanda, Sal, Vivianne, Robert, Faith, Arreis, and Samuel." Candela threw them a white banner. "You guys are the Flourishing Fortissimos! Also known as Team Forte for short."
The new team looked around on their new set of members.
"Next, please stand to my right! Kimmie, Clayton, Mairead, Xavier, Meredith, Spear, Olivia, and Gabe! You guys are the Performing Pianissimos, or Team Piano!"
A black banner was thrown on them with the team logo on it.
"Next episode," Chris, Chef, and Don said in unison. "We will have a special double challenge, more performances, and the opinions of the contestants in their brand new teams!"
"Sixteen remain!" Chris beamed. "Find out what happens to them at…"
"Total…" Chef and Don said.
"Drama…" Candela went solo.
"Musical Impact!" the four concluded as the camera went static.
