The episode starts with everybody sitting on tree stumps that used to be trees in a forest. Don began to narrate in a somber tone. "Dear God, this is the sunflower maze all over again." "Apparently, some genius forgot to put out their campfire, and ended up setting the forest ablaze." "Devin was breathing, but he was not awake." "We think that it's nothing too serious, but we can't be 100% sure." "Cue the intro."
Intro consists of a shorter version of the final countdown.
"Okay everyone, we have Devin talking to us via video chat" said Don. Everybody breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Devin was conscious. A large screen was rolled up to them, and and they could see Devin lying in a hospital bed. Devin was coughing really bad, and his voice was really raspy. "Hey guys, I don't want to give any bad news, but my condition is horrible." "I inhaled way too much smoke, and my lungs can't get enough air." Something went off in Dwayne's head, he knew how bad health issues were when they involved lungs, he experienced that with his late daughter. His son Junior just let out more tears. "Oh my God, I just can't stop having medical issues while competing" said Devin. **Cough **Hack** **Cough** "My God, this is really bad, the doctors have diagnosed me with lung cancer, and I don't know what my chances of survival are." "I've already had a rough past with health problems, and I can't risk anything worse happening." "I've got no choice, i'm dropping out of the competition, I can't come back." "And Junior, I know how hard it's been the last two two times there's been a fill in, but I can promise that my substitute won't be a pervert, I hand picked him myself." "And Carrie, I love you sweetheart, and I want you to win this whole thing for us." "I'll try Devin, i've got a long way to go" said Carrie. "Well guys, I guess this is goodbye" said Devin. "Wish me luck with my health, i'll be watching from the hospital." He then signed off.
A few minutes later, the substitute appeared. The substitute had green tinted glasses, a blue shirt with red sleeves with a burger on the front, and green pants." "OH MY GOD, IT'S HIM, IT'S ACTUALLY HIM!" shouted Junior. He was ecstatic over seeing his favorite total drama contestant. "Finally, good to see you again string bean" said Leshawna. "Now you can tell this brat that you're dropping the charges, and he can forget about that stupid contract" said Leshawna. "Maybe i'd actually do it, if I disagreed with him, which I don't" said Harold. "Owen and Noah actually felt remorse over what they did, but you and Geoff felt nothing." "I still cannot believe, I actually thought I was in love with you."
**Flashback**
Episode 7 of TDI had just ended, and it was late at night. Harold was walking into the communal bathroom in nothing but a towel. He stepped into one of the shower stalls, put his towel on the hook just outside, and began groaning in pain as he was being pelted with hot water. Izzy then stepped into the bathroom in nothing but a towel. "I heard you grunting in pain, do you need me to rub your back?" asked Izzy. "Please no, not if we're both going to be naked" said Harold. Izzy began showering in the stall next to Harold. "My hypoglycemia is getting worse, Chef refuses to give me any sugar, and I keep having to make trips to the infirmary tent" said Harold. "All of my medications for my type one diabetes have run out, and Chris said that he's not calling my pharmacy to get my medication." "If I want it I have to forfeit the competition and go home to get it myself." "It's ridiculous that you're not getting a medical waiver" said Izzy. When Harold was finished his shower, he ran into the nearest toilet stall, and began vomiting into the toilet. "I don't know how long I can go on, but i'm not a quitter" he said.
Harold struggled through the next several episodes. Despite how bad he felt, it didn't look like he was sick at all. When he was voted off in episode 13, he thought the boat of losers was taking him back home to get his medication, but instead he ended up at a five star resort. He immediately had to run and hide from Courtney. Izzy locked herself and Harold in her room at the resort, to keep Courtney from looking in there.
One night, Izzy sacrificed her bed for Harold, and instead offered to sleep next to it, in a sleeping bag. "What the hell is wrong with Courtney?" asked Harold. "Her elimination was completely fair, you can't just intentionally look at somebody's dick, and pretend it was not big deal." "I hear you, you shouldn't have had a reason to rig the votes, she should have just gotten disqualified" said Izzy. "I really feel horrible, I just want the show to end already so I can get my proper treatment" said Harold. As Harold fell asleep, Izzy realized just how cute he was in his sleep. Why did she suddenly want to sleep next to him in bed? She thought she might be falling in love with him.
Izzy Eventually got the call to return back to Camp Wawanakwa, and Harold tried his best to hide without her help. Izzy took pity on Owen, and pretended to fall in love with him. Shortly after she got back to the resort, Courtney beat the crap out of Harold, wrapping him with a lamp post. Shortly after that, Leshawna showed up after getting unfairly eliminated. When nobody was looking, Courtney kicked Harold in the groin hard, and knocked him into the ocean. Harold couldn't swim up as his pole was weighing him down, and was stuck underwater for over five hours, as nobody knew what just happened. Izzy eventually found him, and carried him up to the surface.
Harold proceeded to vomit heavily, some of it being his own blood. Izzy carefully carried Harold back up to her room, took out a saw, and carefully began cutting the pole away. Harold's glasses remained in tact, and the lenses were wet with his tears. "She tried to kill me, first she sexually harasses me, and now it's attempted murder" he said while crying. "I know right, it's really fucked up" said Izzy. Izzy began to carefully apply bandages to the spots where Harold was bleeding. "Hey Izzy, thanks for saving my life" said Harold. "Anytime" said Izzy.
Eventually the season finally ended, and during the three days in between TDI and TDA, Harold finally got his treatment. He was heartbroken when his childhood friend Sanders, yelled at him for unsportsmanlike conduct. Of course, she would eventually get over it.
In the communal bathroom of the abandoned film lot, Harold was sitting in one of the stalls, with his pants and red thong down to his ankles. His stomach was hurting really bad, he was clutching it in pain, but nothing seemed to be coming out. Izzy stepped into the stall next to his, hiked up her green skirt, pulled her green panties down to her ankles, sat down, and let out a sigh of relief as she peed. Izzy then began to sing pop goes the weasel. "Do you sing that every time you go to the bathroom?" asked Harold. "It's something i've done since I was six" said Izzy. "Why do you wear female underwear?" "This thong is a hand me down from my older sister" said Harold. His stomach let out a rumble again. "My life sucks, over my sixteen years of living, i've contracted over 300 known diseases." "Some of them are still plaguing me." "The inedible food i've been eating from Chef Hatchet, is really screwing up my immune system." "My dad died of blood cancer before I was even born, so he couldn't be there for all of my rough moments." "There was this one time where the big toe on my left foot got smashed with a brick." "The entire nail was ripped off, blood was coming out, and it was badly twisted." "I stood there in the ER for 13 hours, before the doctor told me they wouldn't have to chop it." "Oh God, it's coming out, this is not good." Harold groaned in pain as his feces came out of his butt like a volcano. He was letting out a really loud fart. It only got worse from there, as he began to start vomiting heavily. The floor began to become covered with his puke. Izzy heard all of this, as she finished urinating and was now wiping he vagina. Once she pulled up her panties and flushed her business, she quickly ran out, clearly trying to get something.
Harold ended up blacking out, and woke up when he heard a knock. To get his sugar levels back up, Izzy slid him a chocolate bar under the stall. Shortly after Izzy got eliminated, she kept sneaking back onto the set, giving Harold legit and edible food. She was eventually allowed back as a contestant, and Harold finally returned the favor. When it looked as though everybody was going to drown, Harold managed to figure out the combination, and drain the water.
As he was asleep in the boys trailer, he felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked to his side, and saw Izzy. "Listen Harold, I just want to thank you for saving my life" said Izzy. "You stopped me from drowning, I stopped you from drowning, I guess we're even now" said Harold. "But you're the only one that actually recognizes my heroic actions, nobody else had the decency to thank me." "Listen, everything will be fine, you're a hero now, people will now recognize you for your actions" said Izzy.
Izzy would get eliminated in the next challenge, and she would then go back to illegally smuggling food in for Harold. Harold would eventually be eliminated when he got to the final 5, and things only got worse from there. Duncan, the guy he absolutely couldn't stand, ended up winning Total drama action. This irritated Harold beyond belief.
Now that the show was over, Harold was getting excited. He couldn't wait to go onto the internet, and see all of the comforting fans, that felt as though he didn't deserve to be sexually harassed. He was so excited, to find that he had been praised as a hero for saving the lives of seven people. What he saw online was much worse. Several people said that he was an asshole, who has no problems with breaking the rules. They said that he should have been disqualified for eliminating Courtney. They also made comments regarding how him being a know it all was annoying, and he didn't know when to shut the hell up. There was not a single person on the internet, who regarded him as a hero.
Harold then went through a weird faze in his life, when he was a part of the drama brothers. He wrote his own biography called, from disabled to hero. It was time for the public to recognize him for who he was. It's been rumored that the biography wasn't very well received, and a fan actually threw it back at him. In reality, several publishers actually refused to have the book published, saying that Harold was an ungrateful bastard. The one who threw the book at him, was one of the publishers.
Three episodes into Total drama world tour, and Harold finally had enough, deciding to eliminate himself. If his fellow contestants (minus Izzy) weren't going to respect him anymore, then he was just going to leave. And he didn't care what the fine print said, he was never coming back as a Total drama contestant ever again. Izzy would break up with Owen shortly before her elimination, as we all know who she was really after.
Harold eventually saw Gwen steal Duncan from Courtney, and he was so angry after watching it, he broke his tv. That goth bitch had gone way too far. She sexually harassed him on international tv, whacked him on the head with a shovel, and now she's in love with his enemy? That was it, it was time for him to do something.
He would gets his opportunity during the first episode of revenge of the island. He had no intentions of competing, he wanted nothing but revenge. The boat ended up going past the island, and actually stopped at the nearest shipyard. Upon getting off the boat, Harold punched Gwen in the face. Gwen tried to defend herself, but Harold kept overpowering her. When they were finally restrained, Harold didn't have a single mark on him, and Gwen was covered in bruises. Gwen was now in tears. "Why did you attack me?" she asked. "Because you actually had the nerve, to think about dating that motherfucker" said Harold as he pointed at Duncan. He was now leaning over a cowering Gwen, and was now yelling. "YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A F*******, WHO SMELLS LIKE, C*******, WHO LOOKS LIKE A D*******, THAT SMELLS LIKE SH******* AND YOU ****** ****, UNDERNEATH YOUR **********, AND ********* IN ******** ALL OVER YOUR ********, WHO IS FORCED TO F******* BACKWARDS!" Everyone was shocked at the language Harold was using. Harold then ran off crying.
Izzy followed Harold back to his house, and the two were talking in his bedroom. "Izzy, thank you for everything, you've been the only one to stand by me the whole time" said Harold. "Listen Harold, who cares if Leshawna doesn't have feelings for you?" asked Izzy. "Because you're sitting right next to somebody who does." Harold then had a shocking realization. "Oh my God, what was I thinking?" he asked. "I don't love Leshawna, I don't even consider her to be a good person." "It took me awhile, but the person I really care about, was with me the whole time." "Izzy, do you wanna start going out?" "I've been wondering when you were going to ask me that" said Izzy.
A whole year passed, and Total drama all stars just ended. It was midnight, and Izzy and Harold were sitting on a park bench, looking at the millions of stars in the sky. "I wish this would last forever" said Izzy. "You know Izzy, there is a way to make this last forever" said Harold. "There is a place in the world, where you can see as many stars as you want." "There's animals of all shapes and sizes, palm trees, a never ending road that goes on for thousands of miles, there's even a little bit of magic in there." "I can take you there, but you just have to answer one question." Harold got down on his knees, and pulled out a ring box. Inside it was a ring made out of pure gold, with and emerald on it. "Izzy, will you marry me?" "YES YES YES, HELL YES I'LL MARRRY YOU!" shouted Izzy.
The day of the wedding happened after Pahkitew island. The Ridongculous race was going to start in a week. Due to Harold's grudge, he insisted on not inviting anybody he met during Total drama. He and Izzy were standing on a stage in front of a bunch of people. Sanders was acting as the preacher. "Mr Harold McGrady, do you take Isabelle O'Carroll do you your wife?" "To love her forever, and alway be there for her, through the good times and the bad?" Harold was really emotional over what was going on, and had tears in his eyes. "I do" he sobbed. Sanders then turned towards Izzy. "Ms Isabelle O'Carrol, do you take Harold to be your husband?" "To love him forever, and always be there for him, through the good times and the bad?" Izzy did not need asking twice. "YES YES, I DO I DO!" she shouted. "I know pronounce you Mr and Mrs McGrady" said Sanders. Izzy then proceeded to tackle Harold to the ground, and the two began heavily making out.
**End of flashback**
(Confession cam- nobody saw this coming)
Noah- "Harold and Izzy got married?" "Oh my God, nobody would have predicted that."
Owen- "Oh, Izzy was only pretending to love me, I feel so embarrassed."
Sanders- "Of course he didn't want this information to be public, he had basically had it with the total drama fanbase."
**End confessional**
"Leshawna, Geoff, i've spoken to the courts of Canada, and they've agreed to take my case" said Harold. "It's not going to happen right now, but once this whole competition finally ends, you two are going to be on trial, along with everyone else who participated in that prank." "You better have good lawyers, because if you lose this trial, you're going to owe me a lot of money." "But in the case of Courtney, she is absolutely screwed." "She's already been incarcerated, and i'm charging her with attempted murder." "If she loses her trial, she'll be getting a life sentence." "And she doesn't have the power that she had back in TDA."
(Confession cam- I'm not a lawyer)
Emma- "I'm on the fence with the harassment charges." "I understand that those people did something really bad, but is he seriously going to sue them them for it?" "But the Courtney situation, she's pretty much screwed, she definitely tried to kill him."
Leshawna- "He want's to sue me?" "Why does he have to hold that big of a grudge?"
Geoff- "Oh crud, I only have $10,000 left from my prize money last season." "If I can win two seasons in a row, i'll be able to afford a better lawyer."
**End confessional**
Harold then looked at Sanders. "It's alright Kendra, you feel remorse, we're still friends" said Harold. "Now that we know you're first name, what do you want us to call you?" asked Miles. "Whatever you want, i've got no preference" said Sanders. Harold then stood next to Junior. "You kept saying that you wanted my autograph, so here's a signed chess board" said Harold. "Oh and you don't have to tell me what's really upsetting you, but i'll tell you something that's been bothering me." "My family actually lied to me about my father's death, my mother just divorced him and told him to stay away from the family." "He wanted to be with me during my tough times, but my mother wouldn't let him, he wasn't even allowed at my wedding." "Right now i'm not very happy with my mother, my sister, or my brother." "And listen Junior, thank you for standing up for me, it's good to know that somebody finally acknowledges the good thing's i've done."
(Confession cam- family issues)
Sanders- "It irritated me as well when I found out, I used to be on pretty good terms with Mrs McGrady."
Harold- "I've got a very long way to go starting with no points." "I'm a whopping 161 points out of the top 10 to make the chase." "A wild card spot would obviously be easier, but i'm i'm still 126 points out." "I think in order to make the chase, i'll need at least 4 wins." "And Devin, if you're watching this, thank you for picking me to fill in for you." "If I win the whole thing, you'll get a major dedication."
Junior- "Well now i'm actually competing with my favorite contestant, but i'm still really worried about Devin." "And I really don't feel like talking about what's bothering me." (Slowly begins to shed tears)
**End confessional**
(Room 12- Harold and Carrie)
Harold just finished unpacking his things, and was about to leave the room with a sleeping bag. "I have respect for you Carrie, I just don't feel comfortable sharing a bedroom with a woman who isn't my wife" he said. "I'll still come over and hang out once in awhile, but we won't have any sleepovers." "It's alright Harold, I understand where you're coming from" said Carrie.
(Room 3- father and son)
Dwayne and Junior were actually watching full house, when they heard a knock on their door. They were surprised to see Harold with a sleeping bag. Harold explained the situation to them. "Well of course, you can bunk with us for the rest of the competition if you want" said Dwayne. "You have no idea what it means to meet you in person, come on in" said Junior. After watching another episode of full house, the three of them turned in for the night.
(Room 8- Jay and Leshawna)
Jay stepped into the room and noticed something horrifying. Hazel was sitting in a bird cage, with some small bald patches on her. She was bleeding slightly, and there were feathers littering the floor. "Leshawna, what did you do to my owl?" snapped Jay. "She doesn't like to be put in cages." "I ain't risking having owl droppings in my bed sheets, that bird needs to be contained" said Leshawna. "Obviously, she put up quite the resistance." "Nobody locks Hazel in a cage but me, and nobody is allowed to manhandle my pet owl" said Jay. He attacked Leshawna out of anger, and another fight between them broke out. Leshawna wasn't attacking with intend to kill, but by accident she ended up snapping off Jay's left hand. OOOOOWWWWW!
Several minutes later, everyone was gathered at the scene of the accident. Jay now had a massive bandage where his hand used to be. Don had some serious words for them. "We usually try not to officiate when violence is involved with you guys, but this is an incident that happened in between challenges." "It's not my fault he had his hand chopped off, I was using self defense" said Leshawna. "That may be true, but you provoked him" said Don. "You attacked somebody who's not even competing, that being his pet owl Hazel." "Any sane pet owner would want to take action, and I think Jay did the right thing, so i'm not going to penalize him." "Now Jay, is there a substitute you want me to get in contact with?" "Don, i'm not getting a substitute, I can continue on in the competition" said Jay. "Dude, you lost an entire hand, think about what you're doing" said Don. "I am well aware of the risk, but Mickey wouldn't want to see me leave due to a really bad injury like he did, so i'll just have to win the competition with one hand" said Jay. "Very well then, it's your funeral" said Don. He then turned to Leshawna. "Attacking a living being that is not participating in the race will not be tolerated." "You are going to be indefinitely grounded until Mickey returns, or until the end of the competition." "You are only allowed out of your hotel room during challenges." "As soon as you finish a challenge, you are to return to your room immediately, and stay there until it's time for another challenge." "If you finish in the top 3, you are to get back to your room as soon as the podium ceremony is over." "Failure to adhere to this punishment, will result in your disqualification for the remainder of the race around the states."
(Confession cam- If you can't do the time, don't do the crime)
Harold- "Now"
Junior- "I"
Harold- "Hate"
Junior- "Leshawna"
Harold- "Even"
Junior- "More"
**End confessional**
"Jay i'm going to need you to give me Hazel for a second, I need to take her to the vet for treatment" said Don. Jay reluctantly hand Handed Don Hazel's cage. "Okay, we can stop filming now" said Don. The screen then went black.
Authors note: I know i've been making Leshawna look like a complete jerk, but I can assure you that she wasn't trying to permanently injure Jay, she was just trying to defend herself. She also was not trying to hurt Hazel.
Not paying attention to a contestant's health problem is something Chris would definitely do. One of the biggest examples of this is Cameron's elimination in All stars. Chris eliminates him as he is deemed too injured to compete, but instead of doing the sensible thing and have him airlifted to a hospital, he flushes him down a toilet. Cameron is already badly injured, and Chris nows that he's putting him in more danger, with a 99.99% chance of death.
I understand that a lot of people will be upset about Devin leaving, but that's a harsh reality of life. Sometimes, you just can't get what you want. At least the Harold fans will be happy now.
In the difficult freshman year, I already leaked that Harold x Izzy would be a pairing in this story. But I do not think that any of you expected them to be a married couple. Don't deny it, you were shocked when you read that part. Izzy may be insane, but she cares about others. If she was in All stars, she'd be on the heroes team.
Considering how much crap i've given him, it should come as no surprise when I tell you that Duncan is my least favorite character, in all of total drama. He's an asshole who takes pleasure in forcing the innocent to suffer, and he rarely gets consequences.
As always, If you have an idea for a challenge in an upcoming state, or a reward for a challenge winner, feel free to let me know in a review.
Thank you for reading and please have a great day.
