(Day 7)

Team Heroism once again woke up in their ultra-soft beds in the McLean Spa Hotel, this time waking up to "Clown" by Korn.

(Confessional)

"A few days ago, I honestly thought Team Villainy would've wiped us out via a clean sweep. But look at us now. Two victories in a row and two nights at the McLean Spa Hotel. Last time it was because of Brick, this time it was all thanks to me, with some assist from my best friend, Noah." said Cody.

"Woohoo! Two nights straight of partying and living in luxury! This is just so…AWESOME!" Owen said before he let out a loud fart.

STATIC

"After winning two challenges in a row, I'm feeling very confident in both my leadership and my team. But one thing we cannot afford to do is get too comfortable. I know Villainy will be dead set on reclaiming the Spa Hotel, so we really need to be on our A-game. All it takes is one slipup to set us back." said Brick.

(End Of Confessional)

Team Heroism were now eating breakfast, with Owen naturally eating the most, while also talking strategy about today's potential challenge.

"Okay, team, I know things have been going great for us recently, but we need to be prepared for anything. So, in the event that a future challenge is one from Total Drama's past, I'm assigning Owen, Beth, Cody, and Cameron to explain the rules for the team." said Brick.

"Why us?" asked Owen.

"Because you 4 have experienced all the challenges from the past 4 seasons." said Brick.

"Makes sense to me." said Cody.

"I just hope we won't have to deal with too many original challenges because who knows what type of stuff John can come up with." said Cameron.

"As long as it's nothing like the garbage Chris put us through, I'll accept anything." said Leshawna.

After breakfast, Beth, who still felt guilty about the ice cream incident, decided to finally talk to someone about her guilt. And that someone happened to be Dawn.

(Confessional)

"To me, Dawn felt like the best person to talk to when it came to explaining my problems. She knows a lot about auras and people's feelings, and I thought she could help me handle my guilt." said Beth.

(End Of Confessional)

Beth went up to Dawn and said, "Hey Dawn. How's it going?"

"I'm doing very well. And you?" replied Dawn.

"I could be doing a bit better, to be honest. Oh, I heard you were awesome in yesterday's challenge." said Beth.

"Thank you." said Dawn.

Beth then nervously asked, "So, Dawn, if you're not busy, can I talk to you about something in private?"

"Absolutely." said Dawn.

"And when I talk about it, can you not tell anyone else about it?" asked Beth.

"You have my word." said Dawn.

"Great." Beth said before she and Dawn went to her room. Once the door was closed, Beth explained everything that happened on the day of the ice cream challenge. From wanting to sabotage Courtney to spilling the vinegar on the ice cream to trying to frame Sam as the culprit, Beth didn't leave out any details. And the whole time while Beth was talking, Dawn listened, not once interrupting, or judging her.

When Beth was done, she looked at Dawn and asked, "Well? Aren't you going to say something?"

"What are you expecting me to say?" asked Dawn.

"I don't know. That I'm a bad person, a bad friend, a bad teammate. Something like that." said Beth.

"Beth, you're none of those things. You may have done a bad deed but that bad deed does not automatically make you a bad person. With what you did to Sam, you acted out of panic, not malice. You're just a good person who made a bad choice." said Dawn.

"Then what should I do?" asked Beth.

"Ideally, you should tell our team about your actions that day. But I cannot force you to do such a thing. You'll have to tell them whenever you feel comfortable enough to do so. But you will have to tell them eventually. They deserve to know, and it will wipe away your guilty conscience." said Dawn.

Beth thought about Dawn's words for a moment before saying, "I think I know what I have to do. Thanks Dawn. You're a good person. Oh, and one more thing. What does my aura look like?" asked Beth.

"Your aura is usually a mix of orange and yellow but recently it became darker. That was how I knew you were responsible for the ice cream incident and felt guilty about it." said Dawn.

"You knew before I even said anything?" Beth asked.

"It comes with reading people's auras. It's like a 6th sense to me." said Dawn.

"Wow. That's cool. Freaky but cool. Well, it was nice talking with you about my problems, but I have to get ready." said Beth.

"Same here. And one more thing. You do promise to tell Sam about your actions, right?" asked Dawn.

"Absolutely. As soon as I can." said Beth.

"Good. See you at the challenge." Dawn said before leaving Beth's room.

(Scene Change)

Team Villainy were eating breakfast in the main lodge and the atmosphere was tense. They were now on the receiving end of a losing streak, and they wanted to make sure that streak ended at 2.

"So, what are we going to do for today's challenge?" asked Scott.

"We win. That's what we're going to do." said Duncan.

"But we don't even know what we're doing today." said Gwen.

"Doesn't matter. I want to go back to the Spa Hotel, and nothing is going to stop me from making that happen." said Heather.

"Yeah, and there's nothing more I hate than being a loser. Besides the trash sitting near me." Courtney said, referring to Duncan and Gwen.

Before Duncan or Gwen could respond, Noah said, "Guys, I know this might sound crazy but I'm actually glad we lost the last two challenges."

Everyone looked at Noah like he grew a 2nd head and Lightning said, "The hell do you mean you're glad we lost? Do you like losing? Because Lightning hates losing!"

Noah replied, "No, I don't like losing. What I meant was that by losing the last 2 challenges, we were able to get rid of Anne Maria and Justin. Two people who brought NOTHING to the table."

"He's right. Those two contributed jackshit to the team." said Duncan.

"And without that dead weight, our team might actually be stronger now than it once was." said Alejandro.

"Exactly. Without them, we won't have any major liabilities to worry about." said Noah.

"And with no major liabilities, we should start winning challenges again." said Duncan.

"And if we don't, I know exactly who I'm voting for in the elimination ceremony." Jo said while looking at Duncan.

(Confessional)

"Man, that Jo girl is rubbing me the wrong way. She really thinks she'll make a better leader than me. She might in some ways, but the problem is that she doesn't like anyone, and no one likes her. At least some people like me." said Duncan.

(End Of Confessional)

The 9 members of Team Heroism and the 10 members of Team Villainy stood outside the main lodge waiting for John to announce today's challenge.

"Morning, All-Stars. Who's ready for a new challenge?" asked John.

Noah responded with a sarcastic, "Woo."

"And unlike the last 2 challenges, this one will be an original creation, which means it can be whatever I want it to be. And of course, I couldn't come up with it alone. So, everyone please welcome today's former contestant, Geoff!" said John.

The self-proclaimed 'Party Dude' showed up to greet everyone and give a bro hug to Duncan before saying, "What's up, dudes! Man, it's been a minute since I've stepped foot on this island. And I got to say, I kind of missed it a little bit."

"Are you for real? You actually missed this place after all the hell Chris put us through?" asked Gwen.

"Yeah. The best part about this island is that I met most of you here and even found my soulmate in Bridgette. Now, do I miss Chris? FUCK NO. That dude can rot in his jail cell." said Geoff.

"He sure can. So, I brought Geoff back to help with today's challenge. Geoff, if you would do the honors." said John.

"Absolutely. So, when John and I were brainstorming a challenge, I thought about a challenge we did in the past. That 'Phobia Factor' challenge thing we did. Man, that challenge was so sick with Chris making us face our fears head-on." said Geoff.

"WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!" Gwen yelled, who was still traumatized over being buried alive way longer than she should've been because Trent wasn't there to dig her up.

"Okay, sorry for bringing up bad memories." said Geoff.

"Anyway, Geoff brought up 'Phobia Factor' and it gave me a fantastic idea. And that idea is a challenge I like to call 'Pick Your Poison'." said John.

"WHAT?! Aw hell no! You ain't putting nothing poisonous in my body." said Lightning.

"Lightning, 'Pick Your Poison' is just an idiom. It doesn't mean they'll be actual poison involved. Because if there was, I'd be sharing a cell with Chris right now. Now as I was saying, today's challenge is 'Pick Your Poison' and here's how it will work. Everyone here will have to choose to perform one of two options, and neither is pleasant. If you perform an option and succeed, your team gains a point. If you perform an option and fail, your team gets no points. And if you choose to do neither option, your team loses a point, so I wouldn't suggest doing that. The team with the most points wins." said John.

(Confessional)

"I'm not feeling too good about this challenge because, with these bad options, I have no clue how bad they're going to get. I don't know what goes on in John's head. I don't know what kind of sick stuff he could come up with. It kind of scares me, honestly." said Scott.

(End Of Confessional)

"Uh John, I gotta go, dude." said Geoff.

"You're leaving already? But you just got here." said Cody.

"Yeah, I'm only here to make a cameo appearance. I need to get back to Bridgette so we can prepare for Aftermath." said Geoff.

"Aftermath? That's coming back?" asked Owen.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that to you guys. Tomorrow will be a free day, meaning there will be no challenge. So instead, we're airing the first episode of Total Drama All-Stars Aftermath." said John.

"Wait, I thought you said we would have a challenge every day." said Courtney.

"Well, plans change. But enough about Aftermath, let's get this show on the road. So, because Heroism won yesterday, you get to go first. And we're going to start with…Brick." said John.

Brick gulped and stepped forward, hoping his options weren't too horrible.

"Brick, here are your options. You can enter a pitch-black cave and stay in it for 5 minutes. OR you can say 1 negative thing about each of your teammates." said John.

Brick wasn't sure which option was worse. He had an intense fear of the dark, but he also hated badmouthing other players. Every time he had a negative thought about someone, he immediately felt bad about it. Not to mention, he had nothing really negative to say about his teammates, so he decided to suck it up and face his fear.

"I'll enter the cave." said Brick.

(Scene Change)

Brick was now outside of a very creepy cave and John said, "Okay Brick, once you enter the cave, I'll start the 5-minute timer. If you leave the cave at any point during those 5 minutes, you won't gain a point for your team. Do you understand?"

"Sir yes sir." said Brick.

"Okay. Good luck." John said as Brick entered the cave. Once Brick was in, John started the timer.

A terrified Brick sat down next to a rock and got into the fetal position. He closed his eyes tightly and tried not to cry as he was surrounded by nothing but darkness. Thinking about his friends and teammates and trying not to let them down was the only thing keeping him in that cave. He did get spooked several times by some unsettling noises, but thankfully his bladder didn't go haywire because, unlike last season, he was prepared.

(Confessional)

"My weak bladder has been a real problem for me for most of my life. I've had so many accidents that it's incredibly embarrassing to even think about. Thankfully, I have a solution to my problem." Brick said before showing the camera a bottle of pills.

"These bad boys help me control my bladder throughout the day, as long as I take one every few hours. Last season, I left them at home by accident and because of that, I had to deal with constant laundry the whole time I was here. Now, I won't have that problem anymore. Sure, it's annoying dealing with pills but it's a lot better than the alternative, which is wearing training pants. Wearing those things would kill my dignity, even more than anything Total Drama throws at me." said Brick.

(End Of Confessional)

Brick continued to sit in the darkness until John yelled, "Times up! Brick, you can come out!"

Not wasting a single second, Brick got up and ran out of the cave.

"Congratulations, Brick. Thanks to you, your team just scored their first point. Heroism leads with 1-0." said John.

Team Heroism cheered before they walked up to their leader.

"Are you okay, Brick?" asked Zoey.

"Not really, no." said Brick.

"Do you need a hug?" asked Zoey.

"Yes." said Brick.

Zoey wrapped her arms around Brick and hugged him, while the rest of his teammates comforted him.

"I was so scared." Brick said quietly.

"I know. You're really brave for going through with that." said Zoey.

"Look, I like a sweet moment every once in a while, but we have to move on. Now it's time for Team Villainy to step up to the plate. And I'm going to choose…Alejandro." said John.

Alejandro sighed before saying, "Okay, let's get this over with."

"Alejandro, here are your options. You can either reenter the Drama Machine OR you must only be referred to as 'Al' for a substantial amount of time." said John.

Not wanting to relive the trauma he suffered while being trapped in the dreaded Drama Machine, Alejandro asked, "How long will the second option last if I choose to accept it?"

"3 hours. And if you snap during those 3 hours, your team gains zero points." said John.

Alejandro thought about it and said, "I'll accept the 2nd option."

"Okay. If that's what you choose. And the timer starts…now. Good luck, Al." John said with an evil smile.

Alejandro's eye twitched but he kept his cool.

"Alright, so while Al is waiting out his 3 hours, let's pick another member of Team Heroism. Let's pick…Owen. Owen, your options are to either not eat anything for the next 6 hours or fly in a busted-up plane. What's it going to be, big guy?" asked John.

Not being able to eat for a long period of time was just as scary to Owen as riding an airplane because food was Owen's life. Without it, he would go crazy. But at the same time, flying was still his number 1 fear, so he really had to pick his poison.

"Plane! I'll take the plane!" said Owen.

(Scene Change)

Owen looked at his team and said, "Wish me luck, guys.", before entering the plane. The plane was barely functional and looked like it hadn't been used or taken care of in decades.

"Oh Owen. Before you go, I just wanted to let you know that I packed an extra-large parachute for you that you may or may not possibly need if things go south." said John.

"Thanks, John, I appreciate it. Wait. What do you mean if things go south?" asked Owen.

"Good luck, Owen." John said, completely ignoring Owen's question, as the plane took off.

"Okay, while Owen is in the air, it's time to pick another Team Villainy member. And this time I choose…Al's girlfriend, Heather. Heather, your options are to either act extremely nice to everyone or get crushed by a sumo wrestler." said John.

"Be nice to everyone?" asked Heather.

"Yes, everyone." said John.

"Even Gwen?" asked Heather.

"Yep, she counts." said Heather.

Heather thought about it before asking, "How heavy is the sumo?"

(Scene Change)

Heather was now on a stage with a giant sumo wrestler standing in front of her.

"Just let him fall on you and you're done. In more ways than one." said John.

"Are you trying to be funny because IT'S NOT WORKING!" a terrified Heather yelled.

"Relax, I told the guy to not put all his body weight on you. It'll only be 40%-ish." said John.

"THAT'S STILL HUNDREDS OF POUNDS!" yelled Heather.

"Yeah. But hey, you'll be fine. And if you're not, we got our medical team on standby." said John.

"Heather! You can do this! I believe in you!" said Alejandro.

Appreciating her boyfriend's support, Heather looked at the sumo wrestler and said, "Bring it."

And the sumo wrestler did just that as he fell on Heather, bringing them both down to the ground, which made everyone cringe.

John and Alejandro ran up to them to make sure Heather was alive. When she wildly flailed her arms around, John told everyone, "Heather's alive!"

Once the sumo wrestler got off Heather, Alejandro was by her side and asked, "Mi amor! Are you okay?"

"My life flashed before my eyes." Heather said while hugging Alejandro tightly.

"Well Heather, thanks to you getting crushed by hundreds of pounds, Team Villainy gains a point and it's now 1-1." said John.

Team Villainy cheered at this result.

"And…oh, it looks like Owen's flight is just about over." John said while looking up at the sky.

The plane Owen was on finally landed and Owen burst through the door and yelled, "Land!", before collapsing to the ground.

"And thanks to Owen, Team Heroism gains another point, making it 2-1." said John.

Team Villainy groaned while Heroism checked up on Owen.

"Owen, are you alright?" asked Cody.

A tired and disorientated Owen said, "Yeah, I'm fine. Why do you ask?", before throwing up his breakfast, disgusting everyone in the process.

"Eww. Yeah, I think you need some rest, big guy." John said before some interns helped Owen to the infirmary.

"Well, after that very gross moment, let's pick another member of Team Heroism. How about…Harold!" said John.

"Okay, just throw them at me. What are my options?" asked Harold.

"Your options are to either wear underwear that's been soaked in hot sauce for 30 seconds OR make a rap version of a public domain song." said John.

As someone who loved music and rap, Harold despised public-domain music and he would actively avoid it whenever he could. But at the same time, the hot sauce underwear was giving him flashbacks to the 1st season, when Duncan, Geoff, and DJ tortured him over leaving his dirty underwear around the cabin.

Harold thought about his options and said, "Give me the underwear."

(Confessional)

"I know the public domain rap would've been easier, but I feel like I would've killed my soul if I did that. Plus, I've already dealt with hot sauce underwear before. If I can handle it then, I can handle it now. Besides, it could've been worse. I could've been forced to wear that thong underwear again." said Harold.

(End Of Confessional)

John handed Harold some underwear that was completely soaked in hot sauce.

"Good luck." said John.

Harold sighed before taking the underwear and going into a private stall to change. When he got out, he openly wore the hot sauce underwear, so he couldn't be accused of cheating, and he looked like he was in pure agony. And that's when John started the timer.

"So, Harold, how are you feeling right now?" asked John.

"Like my nether regions are on fire." Harold said in pain.

"Harold! It's just 30 seconds! Don't think about the hot sauce! Think about something else!" said Brick.

"Think about anything cold!" said Cameron.

"Think about Leshawna!" said Cody.

"Yeah, think about me, baby! You can do this!" said Leshawna.

Harold used his team's motivation to stay in it and not give up. After what felt like an eternity, the 30 seconds were over, and John stopped the timer.

"It's over! Harold, you scored your team a point. The score is now 3-1. And just to be nice, I brought you a little something." John said before bringing out a mini pool with ice in it.

Harold didn't waste a single second as he jumped right into the pool and felt incredibly relieved as the pain went away.

(Confessional)

"Seeing Harold go through that pain made me feel guilty about doing that to him in Season 1. It was fun at the time but now, not so much. I was a real dick to him when I didn't have to be." Duncan said while looking ashamed.

(End Of Confessional)

"Um, John. Do you mind if we had a little group meeting before you pick one of us?" asked Heather.

"I don't mind. Go right ahead." said John.

"Thanks." Heather said before she and the rest of Team Heroism got into a group huddle.

"Guys, we are on track to lose AGAIN." said Heather.

"We would've already had another point if Al just got in that robot suit." said Jo.

"Being in that robot suit was the worst thing to ever happen to me. I'm not reliving that pain." said Alejandro.

"GUYS! STOP IT! Look, if we're going to win, we all need to participate and we all need to complete whatever option we choose. I don't care what it is, just complete it. And whoever doesn't complete it, will have to sleep outside tonight, win or lose. Is everyone in agreement?" asked Heather.

Everyone nodded in response.

"Good. Now let's not be losers and win this thing." said Heather.

(Confessional)

"I still can't believe I'm not the leader of Team Villainy. I do a way better job motivating the team than Duncan. All I needed to do was throw in a threat. It's that easy." said Heather.

(End Of Confessional)

"Next up for Team Villainy is…Gwen. Gwen, your options are either to be buried alive for a 3rd time OR be handcuffed to Courtney for the rest of the day." said John.

Gwen's eyes widened at her choices. Both sounded terrible but being in close proximity to Courtney for a long period of time sounded slightly more terrible.

"Get the shovel. Let's do this." said Gwen.

(Scene Change)

Everyone was now at the beach witnessing Gwen, who was in a Plexiglass box just like in Phobia Factor, being buried alive in sand.

"3rd time being buried. That's rough." said John as he dumped sand on Gwen.

"Still better than being handcuffed to a psycho." said Gwen.

"I am not a psycho!" yelled Courtney.

"Yeah, that's totally what a non-psycho would say." said Duncan.

Out of fury, Courtney kicked Duncan in the groin but to her utter shock, he didn't cry in pain. In fact, he didn't react at all.

"You're going to have to try harder than that, Princess." said Duncan.

(Confessional)

"I knew I was going to piss off Courtney today, so I came prepared." Duncan said before pulling out a protective cup from his pants.

"After all those kicks to my manhood, you better believe I wasn't going to think twice about wearing these things." said Duncan.

(End Of Confessional)

Once Gwen was buried, John said, "Okay, Gwen will be buried for 5 minutes. Who wants to stay with her?"

"I'll do it. Someone's got to keep her from going crazy in there." said Duncan.

While Duncan stayed with Gwen, everyone else moved on with the rest of the challenge.

"Next up for Team Heroism, let's go with…Leshawna. Leshawna, your options are to either eat a mystery animal OR wrestle a bear." said John.

"Pfft. That's an easy choice. Mystery animal." said Leshawna.

"Are you sure?" asked John.

"I'm damn sure. I've eaten some of the most disgusting slop on this crummy island. I can eat whatever you put in front of me." said Leshawna.

"Okay." John said before bringing out the mystery dish.

John said, "Bon appetit.", and revealed the dish to be a rather large spider.

The spider scared Leshawna to death and she quickly ran away in terror.

"Well, that was unsuccessful. Since Leshawna did accept the option, Team Heroism won't lose a point, but they won't gain one either. So, the score remains 3-1." said John.

(Scene Change)

Duncan was talking to Gwen via a walkie-talkie, trying to kill time.

"So, Chris kidnapped you and put you in a box several feet in the ground just for a dumb challenge?" asked Duncan.

"Yeah. That's what happened." said Gwen.

"No wonder you wouldn't answer my texts or calls for days. I thought you were giving me the silent treatment or something." said Duncan.

"I literally had no reason to do that to you unless you were being an ass." said Gwen.

"I'm telling you if I knew about this sooner, I would've strangled Chris." said Duncan.

"And you would've been in jail." said Gwen.

"At least it would've been a satisfying way to go to the slammer." said Duncan.

"I guess. How much longer until I can get out?" asked Gwen.

"Less than 30 seconds." said Duncan.

"Good. I'm glad you're here." said Gwen.

"Of course, I'd be here. I wasn't going to pull a Trent." said Duncan.

Annoyed, Gwen asked, "Was that really necessary?"

"What? He abandoned you and left you here by yourself." said Duncan.

"I know. But you don't have to insult him like that." said Gwen.

"Whatever. I was just stating a fact. Time's up." said Duncan.

"Thank God." said Gwen.

And right on cue, John and the rest of the All-Stars showed up and John said, "And Gwen has earned her team a point. The score is now 3-2."

Team Villainy cheered before digging Gwen out of the sand and helping her out of the box.

"I will NEVER take light for granted ever again." said Gwen.

"Now it's time for another member of Villainy to step up. And that person will be…Jo. Jo, your options are either to admit someone is better than you OR wear a dress. But not just any dress. A girly-girl dress, meaning it's going to be BRIGHT pink." said John.

Jo grimaced at the visual of her wearing anything pink. But she would die before admitting someone was better than her.

"Give me the stupid dress." said Jo.

John handed Jo the dress and it made her want to vomit.

"If any of you laugh at me, I'll make you breathe through a tube." Jo said before entering the private stall to change.

When she came out, everyone simply stared at her, and it made her want to go into a rage.

"What's with all the staring? You find this funny?" Jo asked in an angry tone.

"No. It's just weird seeing you like this." said Scott.

"It's hard to visualize you wearing a dress." said Zoey.

"Yeah, you wearing a dress is like Owen being thin." said Heather.

"Or Katie and Sadie not wearing matching outfits." said Gwen.

"Or Duncan not looking like a degenerate punk." Courtney added which earned her a glare from both Duncan and Gwen.

"Well, Jo, you put on the VERY bright dress and earned your team another point. The score is now tied at 3-3." said John.

"Good." said Jo.

"Now, Team Heroism, you're up. Let's choose…Dawn. Dawn, your options are either to tell everyone their futures OR burn these roses." John said while holding a bouquet of roses.

"YOU CAN SEE THE FUTURE?!" asked Owen.

"I can predict the future. Not see it directly." Dawn corrected.

"Well, Dawn. What's it going to be?" asked John.

As much as Dawn wouldn't think about harming nature, she was hesitant about predicting the futures of her fellow All-Stars, as not only would that be a somewhat severe invasion of privacy, but she knew some of her castmates wouldn't like what she had to say.

"I will take the roses." said Dawn.

"Okay. And here's a lighter." John said before handing Dawn the roses and the lighter.

All Dawn had to do was set the roses ablaze and score a point for her team. Unfortunately, she just couldn't bring herself to do it as she threw the lighter away, right as she was about to burn the roses.

"I can't do it. I'm sorry. It's too much." said Dawn.

"Welp, that means your team gets no points. The score remains 3-3." said John.

Dawn was deeply disappointed in letting her team down but thankfully they weren't mad at her.

"Team Villainy. We've done Al, Heather, Gwen, and Jo. Now it's time for…Courtney. Courtney, your options are to either jump into a pool of green jelly OR complete a test." said John.

"What's the test about?" asked Courtney.

"I'll give it to you so you can see for yourself." John said before handing Courtney a copy of the test.

Courtney skimmed through the test and found it pathetically easy for her standards.

"Really? This is elementary. I can do this in less than 5 minutes." said Courtney.

"I wasn't done explaining the second option. You have to complete the test. And fail. On purpose." said John.

(Confessional)

"I have to say, going after Courtney's Type-A personality by making her fail a test is actually kind of brilliant. I'm legitimately impressed." said Gwen.

STATIC

"Courtney? Failing a test? Yeah, no fucking chance she was going to do that. That girl is obsessed with getting high marks in school. She'll do extra credit when she already has an A in the class. She's that crazy about grades. Definitely a product of her strict parents." said Duncan.

(End Of Confessional)

Courtney was now on top of a very high diving board, looking down at a pool of green jelly that disgusted her. She didn't think she would have to do this again, but history just had to repeat itself.

"Do you know the test would've been a lot easier, right?" asked John, who was on the diving board with her.

"I was not about to purposely fail a test on worldwide television. That would make me look bad." said Courtney.

"Yeah, because you've never looked bad on this show before. Obviously." John said with a heavy dose of sarcasm.

"What is your problem today? You're being really mean-spirited for no good reason." said Courtney.

"Maybe because I want to have some fun." said John.

"HOW IS THIS FUN?!" asked Courtney.

"Fun for me and the viewers." said John.

"WILL YOU JUMP ALREADY!" Duncan yelled from the ground.

"You heard your ex. Jump. Unless you want to sleep in the dirt again." said John.

Courtney looked at John, gave him the double bird, and fell off the diving board, landing right into the jelly.

"And Villainy now leads with 3-4 thanks to Courtney!" said John.

Scott helped Courtney out of the jelly pool and asked, "You okay?"

"Not really but we got a point, didn't we?" said Courtney.

"Yeah, and oh, you got some jelly in your hair." Scott said before wiping off the jelly.

"Thanks. Jelly is the last thing I need in my hair." said Courtney.

Duncan's blood boiled at the sight of Courtney and Scott being friendly and nice to each other and it made him want to get back at her. He just didn't know how yet.

"Team Heroism, you're up. And this time I'm choosing…Cody. Cody, your options are to either attack a beehive with a stick OR read some of Sierra's 'Coderra' fanfiction." said John.

(Confessional)

"Coderra fanfiction? Really John? REALLY?!" said Cody.

(End Of Confessional)

Against his better judgment, Cody chose the Coderra fanfiction because at least he wouldn't have to risk going to the infirmary.

John gave Cody a printed copy of one of Sierra's stories. That story, in particular, was titled 'One Night with Cody', which made Cody regret all his life choices.

"Am I allowed to read this on TV?" asked Cody.

"Not sure. I guess we're about to find out." said John.

Cody sighed and said, "Sorry Mom and Dad.", to the camera before he began to read the story. The more he read, the worse it got. It was everything he experienced in World Tour except more explicit and fetishy. It made him ill just reading it. Everyone was beyond disturbed by what they were listening to, while Sierra had a smile on her face.

But then Cody made it to a specific part of the story that made him quit reading the rest.

"Is my dream coming true? Is my Codykins finally going to fulfill my deepest fantasy? I see him removing his shirt and his pants and…and…you know what? Fuck this. I'm done." Cody said before tearing up the story.

"Well, Cody, your team gains no points as a result. Score remains 3-4." said John.

"I don't give a shit. I will NEVER read filth like that ever again." an angry Cody said.

"Oh, come on, Codykins. You were getting to the best part." said Sierra.

"STOP CALLING ME THAT STUPID FUCKING NAME YOU CREEPY BITCH!" Cody yelled.

Everyone gasped at Cody's outburst as they'd never seen Cody so angry before.

"Cody, it was just a story." said Sierra.

"You don't get it, do you? You'll never get it. Your deluded fantasy of me falling in love with you WILL NEVER HAPPEN. Especially after everything you've done to me. Constantly invading my personal space, not caring at all about my consent, taking my things, knowing every little detail about me that I've never made public, forcing me into a marriage, DRUGGING me. But this? Making TRASH about you and me getting physical? THAT'S NOT OKAY. And yeah, I may have been a pervert to Gwen in the past, but I WOULD NEVER do something like this to her." said Cody.

Sierra, who now had tears in her eyes, said, "Cody…I-"

"SHUT UP! I'm not falling for your crying shtick. The moment I'm gone from this show, I'm filing a restraining order against you and I'm not going to change my mind." said Cody.

"Cody, you can't do that! You can't!" said Sierra.

"I'm done talking to you. You're dead to me." Cody said darkly.

After a long period of silence, Duncan clapped for Cody, as did most of the All-Stars, as they were proud that Cody finally grew a backbone and told off Sierra.

Even John was impressed, saying, "Holy shit dude, that was AWESOME! That made for some amazing TV."

"Thanks." Cody said, feeling less angry and more like his normal self.

"But now we have to move on with Team Villainy. And after what happened, I might as well choose your best friend, Noah." said John.

"Alright, just tell me my options so we can get this over with." said Noah.

"Okay, then. Noah, your options are either to swim in a pool of eels for 1 minute OR kiss one of your fellow All-Stars. And I decide who you kiss." said John.

Wanting nothing to do with eels, Noah asked, "Okay, who am I kissing? Beth? Courtney? Sierra? Mr. Coconut? Who?"

With a devious smile on his face, John answered, "Cody."

All the All-Stars gasped as a same-sex kiss was the last thing they thought would happen today.

(Confessional)

"Producers have been in my ear, telling me to 'spice up the show' and 'be more Chris-like'. Like Chris, I understand the importance of ratings and I know the easiest way to get a ratings spike is to surprise and shock the audience. And a gay kiss will definitely do that." said John.

(End Of Confessional)

"You can't be serious." said Noah.

"I am serious. I don't get why you have a problem with it. It's not like you haven't kissed him before." said John.

"WE WERE ASLEEP! And I was having a really nice dream, it's not like I knew he was right beside me." said Noah.

"Okay, then explain you and Cody cuddling during the Celebrity Manhunt Total Drama Action Reunion Special." said John.

"You guys cuddled?" asked Beth.

Seeing how everyone was looking at him and Cody, Noah simply said, "No comment."

"Noah, you have to pick something, otherwise your team loses a point and that's literally the worst thing you can do." said John.

"John, if Noah can't do it, can I take his place?" asked Sierra.

"No! That's not how this works. And did you not hear ANYTHING Cody just said to you?" asked John.

"I chose to repress it." said Sierra.

Cody went up to Noah and whispered, "Noah, I think we should do it."

"What? You actually want to go along with this?" asked Noah.

"I want to do it to spite Sierra. Plus, I don't want you to be on bad terms with your team. If we do this, it's a win for both of us." said Cody.

Noah thought about it long and hard. He remembered all the mockery and bullying he had to endure when he went back home after Island finished filming. He rarely went outside and when he did, he was constantly made fun of by strangers. It got better after World Tour, but it still bothered him. But Noah knew he had to be a team player in order to survive in this game. Not being a team player screwed him over hard in Island and wasn't about to make the same mistake again.

With a deep breath, Noah said to John, "I'll kiss Cody."

(Confessional)

"Lightning wants to say for the record that I don't judge anybody. I didn't judge when Jo wanted to kiss a dude and I'm not going to judge Noah for kissing a dude. I'm better than that." said Lightning.

STATIC

"As long as it leads us to victory, I don't care who Noah kisses." said Jo.

STATIC

"No! No! NO! NOOOOOO! I can't let NoCo become a reality. Coderra or bust!" said Sierra.

(End Of Confessional)

Noah and Cody looked at each other and started to get very nervous. It was bad enough that they had to do this in front of their fellow All-Stars but doing it on international TV made it so much worse.

"John, what qualifies as a kiss?" asked Noah.

"It has to be on the lips." said John.

"DON'T DO IT CODY!" yelled Sierra.

Duncan, who saw that Sierra was about to stop Noah and Cody and therefore cost Team Villainy another point, grabbed the crazed super fan and held her back.

"Let go! I won't let this happen!" yelled Sierra.

"Guys, a little help, please?" Duncan asked his teammates.

The rest of Team Villainy went to help Duncan stop Sierra from ruining everything.

"Are you ready?" Cody asked Noah.

"Not even remotely. You?" replied Noah.

"Not really." Cody said while noticing Sierra growing more enraged from the distance.

"HURRY UP! We can't hold her back for much longer!" yelled Scott.

"Noah, we promise we won't make fun of you for kissing Cody! Right, guys?" said Duncan.

"Right!" the rest of Team Villainy, minus Sierra, said.

"Remember, this is just for the challenge." said Cody.

"Right. Just for the challenge." said Noah.

The two friends took a deep breath before Cody said, "Okay. On the count of 3."

"One."

"Two."

And just when Cody was about to say 'Three', Noah surprised him by kissing him hard on the lips.

Everyone was stunned by what happened, with Duncan saying, "Holy shit, he actually did it."

(Confessional)

"Oh my God, why did I do that?! All I had to do was give Cody a peck on the lips for a single second. But no, emotion overpowered logic and I kissed my best friend for a good 10 seconds. And what's worse is that I actually liked it!" said Noah.

STATIC

"I never thought that my first consensual kiss would be with a dude, let alone my best friend. And to be completely honest, I didn't hate it. Probably helped that it was Noah. Maybe I'm not as straight as I thought I was." said Cody.

(End Of Confessional)

"Wow. And with that, Noah scores his team another point! The score is now 3-5." said John.

Once they stopped kissing, Noah and Cody looked at each other and were both blushing.

"Sorry about that." said Noah.

"It's cool, dude." Cody said with an awkward laugh.

Meanwhile, Sierra's world completely crumbled when Noah kissed Cody. And now all she could see was red.

"NOOOOOO!" Sierra yelled before she overpowered her teammates and threw them off her.

Sierra ran full steam ahead, ready to eviscerate Noah for kissing 'her Cody'.

"YOU'RE DEAD, CODY KISSER!" Sierra yelled.

(Confessional)

"Cody Kisser. I guess that's my new nickname now. That's fine with me. Better to be called a Cody Kisser than a Boyfriend Kisser any day." said Noah.

(End Of Confessional)

Noah and Cody held on to each other, thinking this would be their last day on Earth, but suddenly, Sierra stopped. She tried to talk but her words came out slurred and she soon collapsed to the ground.

Confused, Noah and Cody looked at Sierra's knocked-out form and saw a tranquilizer dart in her butt. They then looked up and saw John holding a tranquilizer gun.

"You guys, okay?" asked John.

Noah and Cody nodded their heads.

"Great." said John.

(Confessional)

Showing off his tranquilizer gun, John said, "I knew this thing would come in handy on this show. I only use it as a last resort, in case these kids want to murder each other or something. And Sierra definitely had murder in her eyes. I honestly thought I'd use this on Courtney first. But she's in control, mostly." said John.

(End Of Confessional)

After Sierra was taken to the infirmary by several interns, Noah and Cody went back to their own teams but made an agreement to talk about the kiss later that night.

"Okay, that was a lot, but we have to move on. And since Sierra is…unable to compete, I say we do another member of Team Villainy and move on from there. So…Scott, you're up next." said John.

Scott sighed and said, "Just tell me already."

"Scott, your options are either to get in a shark tank with Fang for 30 seconds OR take a beating from one of your fellow All-Stars for 1 minute." said John.

"The second one! Anything but Fang!" Scott yelled as the trauma he suffered at the hands of Fang came flooding back.

"Alright. Spent that money on the shark tank for nothing. Fun. Anyway, the All-Star beating you up will be determined by spinning a wheel." John said as he brought out a wheel with all the remaining All-Stars' faces on it.

Scott spun the wheel and to his surprise, it landed on Dawn.

"Dawn, you are allowed to harm Scott in whatever way you see fit. As long as it's legal. Scott, you are not allowed to defend yourself once the timer starts. If you do, your team gets no points." said John.

"Okay." said Scott.

"And the clock starts now." John said before starting the timer.

Dawn went up to Scott and Scott said, "Hey Dawn. Um, I'm really sorry about last season and framing you for stealing all that stuff and getting you eliminated."

"I know. I'll forgive you." said Dawn.

"Wait. Did you say I'll?", Scott asked, and before he could say another word, Dawn punched him in the stomach.

John winced at the impact.

"This is for B." Dawn said before punching Scott in the face.

"This is for getting me eliminated." Dawn said before kicking him in the ribs.

"This is for exploiting Mike's disorder." Dawn said before punching him in the throat.

"And this is for making everyone miserable on Revenge of the Island." Dawn said before ending her beatdown with a kick to Scott's groin.

"Time's up. Scott, thanks to you getting your ass kicked, Team Villainy scores another point. The score is now 3-6."

Scott moaned in pain while on the ground as Courtney checked on him.

Dawn then went up to Scott and said, "Now I forgive you."

(Confessional)

"I know what I did went against my pacifist beliefs, but it did feel good to let out my aggression against Scott. Getting rid of all that negative energy felt so freeing." said Dawn.

(End Of Confessional)

"Next up for Team Heroism, Cameron. Cameron, your options are to either enter an air bubble filled with Owen's farts OR disarm a garbage bomb. Don't ask how we got the farts." said John.

Being stuck in a bubble with Owen's stink was the last thing Cameron wanted to do, so he said, "I'll take the 2nd option."

(Scene Change)

Cameron looked at the garbage bomb and was starting to regret his choice. Cody was worried for Cameron as he himself had to disarm a garbage bomb in the Phobia Factor challenge. It didn't end too well for him, and he hoped the same wouldn't happen to Cameron.

"That bomb is going to go off in 10 minutes. You can use the blueprints I gave you. We're all going to be over here, not getting potentially splattered by garbage." John said as he and the rest of the All-Stars stood behind a large plastic shield.

"Don't panic, Cameron. Just relax and concentrate." said Harold.

"Yeah, don't make the same mistake I did." said Cody.

Listening to their advice, Cameron said to himself, "Okay Cam. You can do this. You've created explosives, you can disarm explosives."

After analyzing the wires for 5 minutes, he cut the one he thought would stop the bomb from going off. He closed his eyes and prepared for the worst, but after a few seconds, nothing happened.

He looked at the clock and to his relief, it turned off, meaning the bomb was disarmed.

"And Cameron has earned Team Heroism another point. The score is 4-6." said John.

"Next up for Team Villainy, let's do Lightning. Lightning, your options are either to eat one of the meals used in the Brunch of Disgustingness OR fight a crocodile." said John.

"1st option, please." said Lightning.

"Okay. It's your funeral." John said before bringing out the dish.

John revealed the dish and to Lightning, it looked like weird-looking meatballs.

"Alright! Some protein for Sha-Lightning!" said Lightning.

Gwen, Duncan, Leshawna, and Heather's eyes widened and right when they were about to tell Lightning what he was eating, John stopped them.

"Don't say anything. I want this to be a surprise for him." said John.

Lightning took one of the 'meatballs', looked at it for a moment, and then ate it, making Duncan nearly vomit. Lightning continued to eat until all the 'meatballs' were gone.

"Well, Lightning, you did it. Team Villainy gets another point. The score is now 4-7. Oh, and there's one little thing I should mention. Those 'meatballs' you just ate weren't traditional meatballs." said John.

"What were they?" asked Lightning.

"Two words. Beef. Cojones." said John.

Realizing this, Lightning violently vomited out his food, while John laughed.

(Confessional)

"Man, that is sick! I can't believe I ate some bull's balls!" Lightning said before he turned around and vomited right into the toilet.

(End Of Confessional)

"Next up for Team Heroism, Zoey. Zoey, your options are to either wear a wig made of dog hair OR jump over a pool filled with mousetraps." said John.

"I'll go with the mousetraps." said Zoey.

"Wow, that's a bold choice." John said as some interns brought out the mousetrap pool.

Zoey walked back a good 30ft before turning around and getting into her 'Commando Zoey' persona. She proceeded to sprint, performed a perfect cartwheel and backflip, and then performed a corkscrew flip high into the air, landing on the opposite side of the pool.

"Damn. That was impressive. Zoey, you earned your team a point. The score is now 5-7." said John.

It was at this moment that Cameron checked how much longer Alejandro had before he gained his point. And to his horror, he only had less than 10 minutes left.

"Guys, we don't have much longer until Al gains another point for Villainy." said Cameron.

"That's not good. What should we do?" asked Brick.

Zoey thought of ideas until a good one popped into her brain.

"Guys, I know what we can do." Zoey said before whispering her plan to her teammates.

"Hey, Al! Al! Al!" said Zoey.

"What?" an annoyed Alejandro asked.

"Team Heroism would like to give you a gift. In the form of a song." said Zoey.

"Huh?" asked Alejandro.

Team Heroism then started singing 'Come Fly With Us' from World Tour, except with a twist. Every word in the song was replaced with the word 'Al'. It was Alejandro's worst nightmare.

Seeing that her boyfriend was struggling to keep it together, Heather went to Alejandro and said, "Al, listen to me. This all be over soon. Just tune out the noise and look at me."

"Heather, I'm going to go crazy." said Alejandro.

"I know how I can help you." Heather said before looking at her teammates and said, "Someone please get me a paper bag!"

"On it." said Scott, who ran into the main lodge, and after a little bit of searching, he found a brown paper bag.

He ran back to Heather and her the paper bag, which she then gave to Alejandro. Alejandro grabbed the bag and began to breathe into it, so he could calm down.

"That's it! You're doing great!" Heather encouraged as Alejandro continued to use the bag.

Team Heroism finished 'Come Fly With Us' and were in the middle of 'Lovin' Time' when John announced that Alejandro's 3 hours were over.

"Alejandro, you scored your team another point. The score is now 5-8." said John.

"Yes! I'm so proud of you!" Heather excitedly said as she hugged her boyfriend.

"And now to the final member of Team Villainy. The team leader, Duncan." said John.

"Alright John, I'm ready." said Duncan.

"Duncan, your options are to either sing a song from World Tour OR-" John said before being interrupted.

"Woah, woah, woah. Okay. Hold the fucking phone. I am NOT singing another damn song on this stupid show. Besides, didn't you say none of us had to sing the first day we met you?" said Duncan.

"Oh yeah. I did say that. Well, I kind of lied about that." said John.

"You WHAT?!" an enraged Duncan asked.

"Now, I'm not going to force any of you to sing like Chris did. But you may or may not have to sing sporadically on this show. Depends on what I want to do. And Duncan, you didn't even let me finish telling you your second option. That's really rude, man." said John.

"Fine. Tell me." said Duncan.

"So, you can sing a World Tour song OR…you can remove your piercings." said John.

That option made everyone gasp.

"What?" a shocked Duncan asked.

"Get rid of your piercings. It shouldn't be that hard unless you have piercings in places on your body we can't show on TV." said John.

Duncan got red-faced and embarrassed and saw everyone looking at him. Thinking they were judging him, Duncan snapped and asked, "THE HELL ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT?!"

(Confessional)

"Yeah, I got a piercing…down there. Probably my most painful piercing other than my tongue piercing. I don't regret it though. It looks cool." said Duncan.

(End Of Confessional)

"So, what's it going to be, Duncan?" asked John.

Duncan hated both of his options, but choosing neither was the last thing he wanted to do. Even though his team had pretty much won at this point, he wasn't about to look weak.

Duncan sighed and said, "I'll sing."

"Great." said John.

Duncan thought of songs to sing but the problem was that a good amount of them were group-based, and he wasn't even there for half the season. But then a light bulb went off in his head.

"John, do you mind if I do a duet with someone?" asked Duncan.

"As long as you sing, sure." said John.

"Cool. Gwen! You mind helping me out?" asked Duncan.

Gwen went up to Duncan, who then whispered the song he wanted to sing.

"Are you sure, Duncan?" asked Gwen.

"Look, it's the only song I know by heart and it's the easiest to perform." said Duncan.

"But…Courtney's here." said Gwen.

"Forget her. She's not important. I'm doing this for the challenge and that's it. No other reason." Duncan said, lying to Gwen, as he had an ulterior motive. That motive was to hurt Courtney.

Gwen was doubtful about her boyfriend's words but for the sake of the challenge, she accepted them.

"Okay. Let's sing." said Gwen.

Duncan quickly went up to John and whispered to him the song he wanted to perform. John smiled in response and brought out a speaker to play the background music of the song. Once the music started, Duncan and Gwen started singing, and to Gen 1's shock, they sang 'Greek Mix', the song about their first kiss. And to make it worse, they sang it in front of Courtney, showing zero shame.

And just to pour salt on the wound, John went up next to Courtney and said, "You know, he has such a great voice. But I can't quite make out the lyrics. Speak up!"

Lightning then unironically shushed John and said, "Can you be quiet? I'm trying to hear this."

Once the song was over, Duncan and Gwen looked at each other and passionately kissed.

"Wow. Duncan earns another point for Team Villainy. The score is 5-9." said John.

While kissing, Duncan opened his eyes and stared at Courtney, taunting her.

Scott looked at Courtney and could tell that she couldn't handle this anymore and asked, "You wanna leave?"

"Please." Courtney said with tears in her eyes.

Courtney then started sobbing, making everyone uncomfortable. Scott then put his arms around her and the two walked away.

Hearing the sobbing, Gwen opened her eyes and saw that Duncan was looking at Courtney the whole time.

Repulsed, she pushed Duncan away and yelled, "What the fuck, Duncan?!"

"What? What did I do?" asked Duncan.

"You know exactly what you did! You wanted to sing that song just to spite Courtney! Didn't you?" Gwen yelled.

"I…I…uh…shit." Duncan said, failing to come up with an excuse.

"UGH! You're unbelievable! I…I don't even want to look at you right now!" yelled Gwen.

"Gwen, I-" Duncan tried to say before Gwen stormed off in anger. And instead of being satisfied, he now felt like the biggest piece of shit in the world.

"Yikes." Brick commented.

"Yikes indeed." Zoey added.

(Confessional)

"Great. Fucking great. I make my ex cry, my girlfriend doesn't want to talk to me, and I'm sure everyone hates my guts now. Great job, Duncan. You did it again. Way to be a fuck-up." said Duncan.

(End Of Confessional)

"Okay, let's quickly move on from what we just saw. Beth, you're the last member of Team Heroism who hasn't been presented with options yet. Are you ready?" asked John.

"Sure." Beth said nervously.

"Wait. What's the point in her doing anything? We've won already. The score's 5-9. Why aren't you declaring us the winners?" asked Heather.

"One, because of formality. And two, I'm going to make this interesting. Beth, I will give your team 5 points if you pick an option and complete it." said John.

Team Villainy was outraged by this, but John ignored them.

"Beth, your options are to either take a lie detector test OR go back to Boney Island. Choose wisely." said John.

Beth didn't like either option that was presented to her, but Boney Island caused her downfall in Island, so she said, "Lie detector."

(Confessional)

"I really hope John doesn't give me too many hardball questions. I'm not ready to reveal what I did with the ice cream yet." said Beth.

(End Of Confessional)

Beth was now strapped in, and John had the detector displayed on a screen, so everyone could see the results.

"Okay Beth, I'm about to ask you 10 questions. You must give a complete answer to all of them. If you answer all 10 questions, your team gets 5 points. Sound simple?" said John.

"Yeah." Beth said nervously.

"Alright, let's begin. How are you feeling right now?" asked John.

"Nervous but okay." said Beth. The lines on the detector were slowly paced and small, meaning she was telling the truth.

"How do you feel about your teammates?" asked John.

"My teammates? They're great! They're the best team I've ever been a part of." Beth said as the lines were still small.

"Do you trust your teammates?" asked John.

"Yeah, of course, I do." said Beth. Suddenly, the lines on the detector started getting longer and faster, meaning she was lying.

"Are you hiding anything from your teammates?" asked John.

"No." Beth said quickly, making the lines on the detector more chaotic, which made the other All-Stars suspicious of her.

"Do you know what happened to your team's ice cream in the ice cream challenge?" asked John.

"Yes." said Beth, as the lines on the detector slowed down a bit.

"Did Sam cost your team the victory that day?" asked John.

At this point, Beth was full-on panicking and said, "I…I…I can't do this anymore! I want out!", before ripping herself out of the chair.

"What a shame. Beth, you just cost your team the victory. Team Villainy, you win!" said John.

Noah, Heather, Alejandro, Lightning, and Jo celebrated this result, while Duncan sulked over what he did earlier.

"Team Heroism, I'll see you later tonight." said John.

(Confessional)

"God, I feel like such a coward. I failed my team just because I was too scared to tell the truth. I know what I have to do tonight." said Beth.

(Scene Change)

Team Heroism sat around the campfire and Beth looked absolutely defeated.

"Heroism. You're back here again. You know what to do." said John.

"Wait! There's something I need to say!" said Beth.

"Okay, go ahead." said John.

Beth stood up and faced her teammates and said, "Guys, I have something I need to confess. In the ice cream challenge, I was the one who sabotaged our team."

Beth's teammates gasped at this revelation.

"It was you? But why?" asked Leshawna.

"It was an accident. I wanted to sabotage Team Villainy's ice cream because I was mad that Courtney was still here after what she did to Tyler. I was going to do it but then I had second thoughts and stopped myself. But then I tripped and the open bottle of vinegar I had fell onto our ice cream. I couldn't fix my mistake and when you found out about the vinegar, I blamed Sam because he saw me with the bottle earlier and I thought he would've ratted me out. So, not only did I cost us that challenge, but I got Sam eliminated too because I was too much of a coward to tell the truth." said Beth.

"You may be a little late, but you did own up to it, so we forgive you." said Zoey.

"Thanks, but honestly, I don't deserve to be here. I don't deserve to be on this team, and I don't deserve to compete for the $5 million. So…I'm quitting the show." said Beth.

Everyone including John was shocked by this announcement.

"Um, Beth, are you sure about this?" asked John.

"I'm 100% sure." said Beth.

"Okay, you are officially eliminated from Total Drama All-Stars. Your helicopter ride awaits." said John.

(Scene Change)

Right before entering the helicopter, Beth looked at her now-former teammates and said, "Good luck, guys. Keep fighting and don't make the same mistakes I did."

"We will. Just make sure to apologize to Sam." said Zoey.

"I will." Beth said before entering the helicopter and leaving the island.

(Scene Change)

Noah and Cody were finally able to meet up again after the elimination ceremony and talk about their kiss.

"So, we kissed." said Cody.

"We sure did." said Noah.

"Never thought it would be with you, but I didn't mind. What about you?" asked Cody.

"Kissing you was never something I expected to happen but if I had to kiss a guy, I'm glad it was you." said Noah.

"Thanks. Um, Noah, I'm not so sure I'm straight anymore after our kiss." said Cody.

"I've been contemplating my sexuality ever since our lips touched." said Noah.

"Wow, really? Okay, um, I don't know how you'll feel about this, and it's fine if you don't want to do it, but…would you want us to be a thing?" asked Cody.

"A couple?" asked Noah.

"Yeah, but only if you want to." said Cody.

"Cody, I wouldn't mind dating you. But we can't do it now." said Noah.

"Why not?" asked Cody.

"Being a couple on this show is a recipe for disaster, especially since we're on opposite teams. Remember what happened to Trent and Gwen?" asked Noah.

"Yeah, that was rough to watch." said Cody.

"Exactly. So, let's focus on the game, not romance. And once the game is over, then we'll be a thing. Sound good?" asked Noah.

"Yeah, sounds good." said Cody.

"Cool. Now leave before someone sees us together." said Noah.

"Alright. But one last thing before I go. Can we kiss one more time?" asked Cody.

"Ugh. Fine." Noah said before he and Cody kissed once again.

"That felt good. Later." Cody said before he walked back to the cabins.

"That did feel good." Noah said while blushing before he went back to the McLean Spa Hotel.

(Scene Change)

Duncan was now standing outside Courtney's room, who was finally allowed to reenter the Spa Hotel after her teammates lifted her ban. He knew he had messed up and he needed to apologize. The problem was that he was never very good at that type of thing.

But he knew he had to try, so he knocked on the door and said, "Courtney, it's your shitty ex. Are you in there?"

Courtney was listening but she chose not to respond to anything coming out of Duncan's mouth.

"Look, what I did to you today wasn't right. I'll admit it. If you hate me more than you did already, that's fine. I deserve it. I should've known better than to bring up a bad memory like that. It's just that…I…I got mad, and I didn't think…and…I'm sorry, Courtney. I'm sorry." Duncan said, getting emotional near the end, before walking away.

Courtney was surprised by how Duncan said he was sorry. She'd never heard him be this emotional over anything. At least not since Scruffy was killed.

(Confessional)

"I wasn't sure what I was hearing. Duncan, delinquent punk Duncan, actually apologized to me. And the way he said it felt genuine. I'm not saying I like him because I don't. But I'll at least tolerate his existence." said Courtney.

(End Of Confessional)

John finished watching Courtney's confessional and said to the camera, "Man, today was quite the episode, wasn't it? Beth quit out of guilt, Noah and Cody kissed, and Duncan pissed off both his former AND current girlfriend. Exciting stuff. What will happen next? Well, you're going to have to wait because the next episode is going to be the return of the Aftermath show. So, stay tuned for the first episode of Total Drama All-Stars Aftermath!"

Hope you enjoyed the chapter. This one was stupidly long, over 30 pages long, but it was necessarily long because I had SO MUCH to cover. So, Beth is gone and her arc in this story is complete. I thought about voting her out, but I decided it would be better if she quit because of a guilty conscience. But that's not the biggest development that happened in this chapter. Noah and Cody are a thing now, or they will be once the show is over. I wanted to include at least 1 fanon couple, so why not choose the most well-known? And yes, I know Noah canonically has a girlfriend, Emma from the Ridonculous Race, and I don't have a problem with that. But in this universe, anything past All-Stars doesn't exist. Anyway, the next chapter will be the 1st Total Drama All-Stars Aftermath show, which will include interviews with all the eliminated players so far (Mike, Lindsay, Tyler, Sam, Anne Maria, Justin, and Beth). Other than that, I hope you all have a wonderful day. Bye for now and stay safe.
