Episode 16: Tennis Troubles
Recap
Chris: Last time on Total Drama: Return of the All-Stars, we went back to Sydney Super Dome for our second fighting challenge. Leshawna and Heather have proven that their rivalry is still a thing. We had crazy matches, with a mix of hilarious humiliations. But in the end, Dave finally received his karma from Ripper, who won immunity and Scott and Dawn were both voted off, but in Dave's confessional, he revealed that rigged the votes to get them eliminated. Will Dave continue his monstrous path to the million dollars? Find out right here on... Total... Drama... Return of the All-Stars!
After the opening sequence, Sierra managed to pop out of the water and sees Sydney, Australia.
Sierra: I'm finally here. Stupid airport employees banning me from the airport over my so called craziness. But now I'm here. Gwen, you're gonna pay for KISSING MY CODY!!! (She jumps out of the water and starts to run towards the city.) Now to find the campsite.
Meanwhile at camp, Dave was searching for the immunity idol.
Dave: Where is it?! Ugh! Why is it hard to find it?!
(Confessional: Dave)
Dave: I have spent all morning searching for that stupid immunity idol and I can't find it! Ugh! Did Chris give out any hints onto where it is?!
End of Confessional
At the spa hotel, Ripper was enjoying the back massages.
Ripper: This feels nice... Victory never felt so sweet!
Owen and Duncan are getting foot rubs.
Duncan: You said it, Dude! These foot rubs are amazing.
Owen: Yeah! We should all team up to win the next challenge!
Ripper: First, we gotta get rid of Dave after the challenge since he's been causing so many eliminations lately!
Duncan: Yeah. Now that I think about it, Jo was actually right about Dave.
Owen: Yeah. He is really mean now.
Ripper: We gotta find a way to take him down.
Duncan: Yeah. But guys, here's one thing I have to tell you. You know on how Courtney and I were pretending to love each other to make Gwen jealous?
Ripper: Yeah. What about it?
Duncan: I actually want Courtney back. I know she's a bossy know it all, but I actually admired her bad side.
Owen: Well, we are in an alliance with her, so in the next challenge, do something to impress her and maybe she'll take you back.
Duncan: Okay.
(Confessional: Duncan)
Duncan: I know you think I'm crazy for wanting Courtney back, but guess what? I don't care. I want us to be a thing again because I loved her bad side!
End of Confessional
Dave exits the forest angrily.
Dave: I can't believe I didn't find that stupid idol! Where did Chris even hide it?!
Jo approached him.
Jo: I know you had something to do with dirt boy and nature girl getting voted off!
Dave: Whatever do you mean?
Jo: Don't play dumb! I know you rigged the votes! And I'm gonna expose you for what you did, and you're so getting sent home after today!
Dave: Not if I win today's challenge. Maybe they'll have no choice but to vote you off.
Jo: Oh please. I haven't done anything bad to anyone this season.
Dave: Didn't you try to push Emma into a pool of electric eels?
Jo: Yeah, but what I did to Emma wasn't as bad as what you've been doing all season!
Dave: Oh please. I'm sure nobody wants to be on your side after everything you did.
Jo: Just you wait. With everyone's help, I'm gonna get you kicked off the show! And don't you forget about that!
She walks away.
Dave: We'll see about that.
Chris: (Through loudspeaker) It's challenge time! Head to the Bus of Shame because we're going on another field trip!
Later, they are now in Sydney Olympic Park Tennis World.
Chris: Welcome to Sydney Olympic Park Tennis World, the home of many Australian tennis matches and the location for today's challenge.
Chef: Since there are 14 of you left this season, two of you will be facing off against our two special guests.
Chris: Yup. Just like our last challenge, this one will be tournament styled, so you all better work really hard because this time, three of you will be voted off!
Everyone gasped.
Heather: So you're gonna boot three of us after this challenge?!
Chris: Yeah. We never did a triple elimination challenge before, so this episode and the next one will have triple eliminations. We'll go back to double eliminations after the next episode. And guess what else? The person who wins the tournament will win immunity and will chose the contestant who was not invited to compete this season to rejoin the game.
(Confessional: Gwen)
Gwen: I have got to win the next challenge. That way, I can convince everyone to get rid of Dave, Heather and Alejandro. After I win, I'm gonna pick Harold because I'm pretty sure Leshawna misses him.
(Confessional: Ripper)
Ripper: After I win, Axel is back in the game! Yeah!
(Confessional: Cody)
Cody: I do miss Harold. Maybe I'll pick him if I win.
End of Confessionals
Jo: So which two special guests are we going up against?
Chris: You'll be facing off against the old tennis rivals Pete and Gerry!
Pete and Gerry entered.
Pete: Hello there, Everyone!
Gerry: Hi.
(Confessional: Owen and Noah)
Owen: I can't believe we're seeing them again here in this show.
Noah: Yeah. But we're gonna beat them, just like how we beat them in the Ridonculous Race.
Owen: Didn't they get eliminated because Gerry's foot was outside the chill zone?
Noah: Yeah, but it saved us from elimination, and we still beat them.
End of Confessional.
The tennis matches were set and it was Dave Vs Gerry, Leshawna Vs Pete, Duncan Vs Cody, Owen Vs Heather, Gwen Vs Ripper, Alejandro Vs Courtney, Cameron Vs Noah and Lightning Vs Jo.
Chris: We are gonna do all the matches at the same time. Remember, if you all managed to score 3 times against your opponents, you move on to the next round. But if one of the tennis rivals win, neither of you will be safe from elimination and anyone will be voted off!
Heather: You can't do that!
Chris: Yes I can because it's my show! Anyways... Go!
He blows the airhorn and all the matches start. Heather and Owen hit their ball with their rackets.
Owen: I'm not really a tennis guy.
Heather: I've played tennis in this show before against Beth and I won't lose again!
Leshawna later manages to beat Pete by scoring 3 points against his one point.
Leshawna: That's how I roll!
Chris: Leshawna moves to round 2!
Duncan manages to beat Cody with a score of 3-2, and Owen wins against Heather with a score of 3-1. Gwen beats Ripper in their match with a score of 3-2.
Ripper: Aw!
Gwen: Yeah!
Dave beats Gerry with a score of 3-0.
Dave: Take that, old man!
Gerry: Darn it! Well, I had fun.
Dave: I don't care.
He leaves his court and Jo beats Lightning in their match with a 3-2 score. It was tied two each between Noah and Cameron. Alejandro beats Courtney in their match with a score of 3-1.
Alejandro: Sorry, Chica. I gotta win this challenge.
Courtney was angry. Noah and Cameron were still trying to make it to the next part and Noah manages to beat Cameron in their game.
Chris: That was awesome! Time for round 2!
It cuts to commercial.
After the commercial break, Sierra is still in the public and she makes it to the campsite.
Sierra: I'm here! Now to crush Gwen! (She enters the cabin and sees the cabin empty.) She's not here. Now to find her! (She searches the whole camp and noticed it all empty.) Where is everyone?
An intern approached her.
Intern: Sierra? What are you doing here?
Sierra: I'm looking for Gwen!
Intern: She's not here. She went to Sydney Olympic Park Tennis World.
Sierra: Where is that located? (The intern whispered it in her ear and she runs off.) I'm coming for you, Gwen!
Intern: This is why she wasn't invited to compete this season.
He walks away.
Round 2 was already underway and Dave is against Leshawna, Duncan Vs Owen, Gwen Vs Alejandro and Cameron Vs Jo.
Courtney: You got this, Duncan!
Heather: You want him back, don't you?
Courtney: What? No!
Dave beats Leshawna later in the round by beating her with a score of 3-2.
Dave: Aw yeah! I won again!
Leshawna: Ugh!
Duncan beats Owen 3-0, Jo beats Cameron 3-0 and Gwen and Alejandro's match was tied with 2 each.
Gwen: Let's do this!
She swings her racket at her ball and Alejandro tried to hit it, but it passes him and she wins.
Cody: Way to go, Gwen!
She approaches Cody and kisses him.
Gwen: Thanks, Babe.
She and Cody kiss on the lips and Dave takes a picture of it.
Dave: Now to send this too Sierra and send our location.
Back with Sierra, she is running to Sydney Olympic Park Tennis World. She then checks her phone and sees Cody and Gwen's second kisses and was enraged and screams in anger.
Sierra: I'M COMING FOR YOU, GWEN!!!
She continue running.
(Confessional: Sierra)
Sierra: Gwen, you are going DOWN!!!
End of Confessional
Round 3 begins with Dave Vs Duncan and Gwen Vs Jo. Duncan scores a point over Dave and Dave rebounds, making it one each.
Jo: I'm not gonna lose to you, Goth Ball!
Gwen: I've been practicing Tennis, so I'm definitely gonna win.
They continued to play. Later in the match, Dave beats Duncan with a score of 3-2 and Gwen and Jo's match was tied 2 each. Gwen gives the game winning shot and wins with a score of 3-2.
Jo: Impossible!
Gwen: Looks like I'm one step closer to immunity.
(Confessional: Jo)
Jo: I only let her win because I was just preparing myself for a future victory. But don't worry. I will win next time. Goth Ball won't even stand a chance.
End of Confessional
Sierra sees the dome and she enters and sees the challenge going on. She then decides to stay hidden.
Sierra: When the time is right, I'm gonna crush her!
Duncan approached Courtney.
Duncan: Sorry I lost to that dork and Court, I have to be honest. Gwen really wasn't the one for me and she dumped me. I've just been really lonely without a girlfriend and...
Courtney: Get to the point.
Duncan: What I'm trying to say is I'm sorry for leaving you with Gwen.
Courtney was surprised and then she kisses him on the lips.
Courtney: It's fine. Thanks for apologizing.
Duncan: You're welcome.
Courtney: Our relationship is back on.
Duncan: Yes!
Dave saw this and smirks.
(Confessional: Dave)
Dave: I know the perfect people to frame the rigged votes on!
End of Confessional
Gwen and Dave were about to start their match.
Gwen: Time to end your reign of terror!
Dave: Oh please. You're not gonna like what's gonna happen to you in the next few seconds.
Gwen: What are you talking about?
Dave: Nothing. Chris, blow the horn!
When Chris blows the horn, Sierra sees this as an opportunity to attack Gwen, she then comes from her hiding spot and charges towards Gwen. Gwen was about to serve the ball when Sierra tackles her. Everyone gasped.
Heather: Sierra?!
Leshawna: Oh no.
Cody and Cameron were scared and hugged each other in fear of seeing her. Sierra was badly attacking Gwen.
Sierra: THAT'S... FOR... KISSING... MY... CODY!!!
Cody grabs Sierra.
Cody: Sierra, get off her!
Sierra: Cody? CODY!!!
She hugs Cody tightly.
Cody: Gwen!
Dave approaches Gwen.
Dave: Remember when you ruined my shower the other night? Now we're even!
He laughs as he has won the challenge by default.
Chris: Looks like Dave wins immunity by default.
Gwen managed to get up while holding her arm.
Gwen: What?!
Chris: Yeah. You're hurt and I don't think you can play. Interns, take Sierra to the bus of shame and drive her back to the airport.
Two interns grabbed Sierra.
Sierra: Let me go! Let me go! I want to be with Cody!
Chris: Geez... Dave, choose which person who was not invited to compete this season to rejoin the game.
Dave: I choose Sierra.
Everyone gasped.
Sierra: Really?
Chris: Um, are you sure you want to bring her back?
Dave: Yeah.
Chris: Dude, I'm giving you a chance to re choose.
Dave: Nah. I pick Sierra. Besides, you said that I can choose whoever I want.
Chef: He does have a point.
Chris: Fine. Interns, let go of Sierra. (They let her go.) Sierra, congratulations. You are an All-Star again.
Sierra: YAY!!!
She laughs goofily, and Cody and Cameron were scared.
Cody and Cameron: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Back at the campsite, Dave plants half of the rigged votes in Courtney's bed and the other half in Duncan's bed and walks out undetected. When everyone got back in their cabins, Alejandro noticed something.
Alejandro: What's this?
He grabbed it and was shocked.
Lightning: What did you find?
He shows them and they are angry at Duncan.
Ripper: Dude, seriously?! You rigged the votes in the previous elimination ceremony?!
Duncan: No! I didn't do it! I was voting for Dave the whole time!
Owen: How could you betray us?!
He runs out the cabin crying.
Noah: That's low, even for you, Duncan.
Duncan: I'm being framed!
Alejandro: That's what they all say.
In the girls' side of the cabin, they were all angry at Courtney.
Heather: You rigged the votes?!
Courtney: I didn't do it! It was...
Leshawna: Save it! First the chart and now this! I hope you enjoy going home tonight!
She was shocked as the girls angrily left their cabin. All but Jo.
Jo: I know you didn't do it. It was Dave.
Courtney: You knew?! You gotta tell them!
Jo: Oh I will!
She then starts to walk out the cabin until...
Chris: (Through Loudspeaker) Campers, it's time to send home three people tonight!
Jo: Dang it!
All the remaining contestants were walking to the next elimination ceremony and when they got there, they sat down. Everyone then angrily distanced themselves from Courtney and Duncan.
Chris: I think it's obviously who's going home tonight. And since Sierra just rejoin, there better not be any votes against her! But anyways, Chef, please explain how bad they are.
Chef: Gwen, you provoked Sierra to come here by kissing Cody and it costed you a chance to win immunity!
Sierra glared angrily at her.
Gwen: But it wasn't my...
Chef: Duncan and Courtney, I just find it weird that you're a couple again.
Duncan: Whatever.
Chef: Sierra, while Dave did choose you to come back, I think it was unnecessary of you to attack Gwen. Look how badly hurt she is!
(Confessional: Sierra)
Sierra: She kissed my Cody! I wasn't gonna let her get away with it.
End of Confessional
Chris: Time to pass out meat pies. (He tosses them each time he calls their names.) Dave. Owen. Leshawna. Cody. Noah. Ripper. Cameron. Lightning. Jo. Alejandro. Sierra. (There was one left.) There is one meat pie left. If you don't get it, you're out. The last meat pie goes to...

...
...

...
...Heather!
He gives it to her.
Courtney: What?!
Chris: Duncan, Courtney and Gwen, all three of you are out. Head to the bus of shame!
Jo: Wait a second! Little Miss CIT and Dummy Delinquent didn't rig the votes! Dave did!
Heather: Stop trying to defend them, Jo!
Dave: Yeah. I had nothing to do with it.
Jo growled angrily.
Cody: No... Gwen...
Gwen: Don't worry, Cody. Win this for me.
Cody: I will.
She and Cody shared one last kiss before Sierra punched Gwen in the face.
Sierra: STOP KISSING MY CODY, YOU BOYFRIEND KISSER!!!
Duncan and Courtney helped her up.
Courtney: Gwen, I'm really sorry for the chart thing. I know you may never forgive me and I promise to never make a chart like that again.
Gwen: Fine. I'll give you one more chance.
Duncan: Courtney and I are back together.
Gwen: I'm fine with it.
Chris: Dave, choose which two people you want to bring into the Space hotel tonight.
Dave: I choose Cody and Sierra.
Cody: What?!
Sierra: Yay!
She hugs Cody tightly.
Cody: No! Please! Don't make me be with her! Anyone but her!
Chris: Duncan, Courtney and Gwen, head to the bus of shame.
They all left.
All three of them were angry and they boarded the bus and it drives off.
Chris: Looks like three more of our original cast members are gone. Who's next to be voted off? Find out on the next... Total... Drama... Return of the All-Stars!
