(54/100)

6. Episode 6: Beware The Sweeper

Episode 6 is out, how fun.

Metal Face- We'll see how those 4 do!

andrew1- That challenge in TDI24 was goated. And yup, a lot of beef is happening in this season lol

Lacuevademisgustos- Yeah, I think Mickey was predicted to have this big comeback arc but he flopped I fear. I stopped Tammy slander with her scene last episode, the opinions seem to be positive on her now. I guess you don't like Sadie's EEK! This challenge won't be the best for cross-team interaction, but I think my episode 7 idea will fill the cross-team interaction void.

Jaron58- Mary found the idol, she did stuff last episode dw x

TaTTOO- We stan a murderous icon

Vladiator- Thanks for all the suggestions! I used my idea for this one though, maybe soon though.

CMC- Beth going out for nothing, top 10 saddest moments ever

Omega Leonidas- I hope I didn't ruin your ice cream session. I may be wrong, but Rock wasn't at risk of infection. He didn't get a cut that could get infected by the elements, it was just a break. Let's hope Brody can learn this lessons soon.

Magmahound- Indeed I did have free time, and again agreed about the heroes.

Guest- I'm glad you liked the Goths/Owen scenes, I feel like that would've had potential in the real show

Important S- Thanks. About your questions. 1- Out of the show, it's because it's easier for me to write with smaller groups for now. In the show, it's so the editors have an easier story to tell the audience (easier for a national audience to digest 10 small team dynamics as opposed to 100 people giving input) + to get a different type of drama. On Survivor, teams who don't lose for a long time get sick of each other and cause drama because they never have a chance to vote each other out, see Survivor Philippines. Also you get intrigue on stuff like Zoey not knowing how Cameron got eliminated. If it was the old format, she would've just asked Mike and found out already. 2- She just didn't do it, she doesn't give that vibe to me.

Mortal01- Yeah I made Gwen more normal than whiny. I don't hate All Stars Gwen to the extent most do, but it was far from her best showing. Max is here to slay and make us question why the rest bother to stay, I agree. Sugar and Jacques interacting in the real show would melt my brain probably. Idk why I decided to make Staci a lowkey savage, but I'm glad you like it. DJ and Millie isn't the oddest ship, though I didn't think the scene came off ship-y at all lol. Tammy losing haters is an unexpected development of this series.

Recap

"Last time on Total Drama Ultimate… Bowie assured Raj that he would be there for him anytime. Continuing the trend of heartwarming moments on the Yellow Team, Owen gave a speech about how Total Drama changed every camper's lives and that they should appreciate the opportunities this last season brings. The Tennis Rivals showed signs that the elements might be getting to them. Mary found an immunity idol, meanwhile on the same team Izzy threw mud at Dave for essentially no reason. EmmaRR agreed to an alliance with Scarlett, showing that Scarlett's seeds of trust have grown. Gwen told Sammy that she wasn't holding onto the past in regards to Duncan and Courtney, which made Sammy ponder if she was still too focused on Amy despite them not being in each other's lives anymore. Max nearly blew the cover of his alliance, while Brody awkwardly tried to hint to Geoff and Bridgette that he didn't want them to have kids in the near future… yikes. MacArthur threatened Cody into an alliance on the Purple Team. Josee insulted Sam for his hobbies being all online instead of Olympic level like she is. Miles managed to outfox Scary Girl by leading her to a trap… too bad she might have inspired Nichelle and Shawn on how to kill bigger animals. Duncan disapproved of Amy targeting Gwen and Courtney as he doesn't want to start new drama with them. Heather killed a squirrel thanks to the weapon Axel made for her. Axel was dealing with Ripper, who is desperately trying to get back together with her… awkward! Blaineley tried to insult Ripper's appearance, but all she got were snarky comments about her age from Sugar, Jacques, and Chase, the former two forming an alliance. Speaking of appearances, Jen and Anne Maria were gossiping about the guys around camp and in the game. Justin overheard Anne Maria insulting his looks again, which led to some personal jabs between the two. Taylor demanded that her mother Kelly find her an idol, which Kelly was trying to do before Staci came in and caused some tension. Lime Team's confidence continued to grow, making Sierra nervous as she does not want her team to jinx themselves. Ellody took her side, possibly signifying a duo is forming. Millie pondered trying to not help Priya anymore with her parental problems, and she talked to DJ about her concerns over what Dawn said. Speaking of Priya, the beef between her and Sadie continued. After yet another argument, Priya and Laurie bonded over their mutual hatred of the BFFFL, forming a union to try and take her out. Mickey continued his pushup training attempts, though again Dwayne discouraged him. In a shocking turn of events, Tammy said that she stopped believing in magic and her whole persona was built off of rebelling against her parents trying to stop her imagination as a kid. She and Ella had a discussion that resulted in Tammy knowing she could still be a LARPer, just that she needs to separate facts and fiction. In a fun challenge, we played a good old fashioned game of Simon Says! Despite being a challenge they should be able to win, crucial mistakes led to the Blue Team seeing me at the elimination yet again. Mickey never proving himself in the challenges led to him being our 7th boot in a 6-2 landslide. What wasn't a landslide was the Purple Team's elimination. What originally seemed to be an easy 9-1 vote against Rock for hurting his ankle during Simon Says turned into frenzy because of a malicious plan by Topher, someone on Cyan Team. When they were both out of the challenge, Topher told Zee that Beth was trying to organize some blindsides on Damien and McArthur, knowing that Zee would spill the beans. Spill the beans to Damien he did, which caused Damien to make a counter revenge plan on Beth, who wasn't even scheming against him, she was getting a tan with Lindsay! With the help of MacArthur wanting to make a big move, a 5-4-1 vote saved Rock by a hair and sent home a former finalist in Beth, much to the dismay of Tyler and Lindsay. 92 are left. How will Tyler and Lindsay react to Beth leaving? Will the Purple Team find out Topher caused all their paranoia? How will Chet react to Cody throwing a stray vote his way? Can the Blue Team bounce back? Find out the answers to all of this and more on this episode of Total… Drama… Ultimate!"

Intro

Day 9

Cut to Purple Team at midnight

"Can you explain what you meant by Beth trying to blindside everyone?" Lindsay asks the team as they arrive back at camp after the elimination ceremony, clearly confused.

"Don't play dumb Lindsay!" MacArthur yells.

"I doubt she's playing…" Chet shades, earning an angry glare from Tyler though he can't see it in the dark.

"I'm not playing dumb, can you just explain what you meant?"

"You two and Beth were trying to pull a blindside on either Damien or I!" MacArthur explains.

"That makes no sense!" Tyler buts in. "We voted for Rock, not either of you… no offense man."

"No worries dude, I understand." Rock replies.

"You only changed your plans because Rock hurt his ankle!" MacArthur says disapprovingly.

"Why do you even think Beth was doing anything bad, you're just making a baseless accusation!" Tyler responds.

"Damien said so!"

With that, all eyes on the team turn to Damien. "Well Zee told me that!"

The eyes shift from Damien to Zee. "Zee, did you lie?" Sanders inquires.

"I didn't make it up out of nowhere, someone on one of the other teams told me!" Zee defends.

"Who told you?" Cody questions.

Zee begins sweating. "They told me not to say that they told me, I shouldn't have even said that someone on the other team said anything…" MacArthur and Sanders look in each other's directions, nodding as if they know how to handle this.

Confessional: Sanders and MacArthur

"As police cadets, we know a thing or two about interrogating people to get answers." Sanders smiles.

"Good cop bad cop time!" MacArthur adds.

Conf end

"Zee, it's nice that you want to keep other's secrets…" Sanders starts.

"BUT IF YOU DON'T TELL US WHO TOLD YOU, WE WILL DROWN YOU IN THE LAKE!" MacArthur aggressively yells, startling the team.

"Okay okay, it was Topher!" Zee breaks down to a chorus of gasps.

"WHAT?" Lindsay shrieks, the betrayal setting in for her. "Why would he do that? She was never plotting!"

"That's odd…" Sanders mutters. "Lindsay, I thought he was your assistant? Why would he target Beth?"

"I don't know!" Lindsay cries out. "He took out my Beth Friend Forever, this is less acceptable than when the mall is closed!"

Tyler sighs and gives a guilty look.

Confessional: Tyler

"Aw man… Beth told me a few days ago that she found Topher to be suspicious. I should've been more alert so he wouldn't have sabotaged her in this game! I didn't even talk to Lindsay about it, so now I feel really bad…

Conf end

Confessional: Damien

"So I led a campaign against Beth for no reason? Beth, if you're watching, I'm so sorry!"

Conf end

Confessional: Zee

"Dang it, people really need to stop telling me secrets, I always expose them!"

Conf end

Confessional: Rock

"Tough break for Beth, but I'm glad that I can rock on safely! My ankle still hurts, but hopefully the next challenge isn't physical so I won't be a liability."

Conf end

"Lindsay, can we talk in private?" Tyler asks. Lindsay grabs onto his arm to signify a yes, and the ditsy duo make their exit. With the seven remaining Purple Team members in camp, the talking is far from over.

"So, which one of you voted for me?" Chet demands angrily, now having his time to ask questions after the Topher debacle was solved.

"I did." Cody says. "I felt bad for Rock and I didn't want to vote for Beth since she's my friend and-"

"EXCUSE ME?" Chet interrupts, now glaring a hole into Cody, causing the smaller boy to gulp in fear.

"I- I wasn't trying to get you eliminated!" Cody stutters. "It was just a throwaway vote-"

"The only thing you threw away was your game, that was a big mistake!" Chet tells Cody.

Confessional: Chet

"I said that I would take revenge on whoever voted for me, Cody better watch his back! He may say it was a throwaway vote, but any vote could cause your elimination!"

Conf end

Confessional: Cody

"...maybe it wasn't a good idea to throw my vote on Chet. Maybe Zee would've taken it better!"

Conf end

"Lindsay, I'm sorry about what happened to Beth. She told me that she found Topher suspicious but I didn't think about it too much after, if we talked about it with you maybe things could've worked out differently." Tyler apologizes.

"Aw, don't worry Tyler, he would've found a way to sabotage her anyways. It isn't your fault!" Lindsay assures. "So since Tofu betrayed us, what do we do to get payback?"

"What he did was very strategic… we have to do something to match that." Tyler states uneasily, knowing that he and Lindsay were never exactly going to win best strategist of the season awards in the past.

"What would Heather and Al do?" Lindsay ponders out loud, causing the duo to think.

Confessional: Lindsay

"Heather is REALLY mean, but hanging out with her the whole time on the Island made me learn some things. I'm going to bust out… Strategic Lindsay, her hotness!"

Conf end

Confessional: Tyler

"I've never really tried to make a move on this show before, I just voted for who Alejandro or whoever else told me… but this time, Lindsay and I have to become Alejandro and Heather to avenge Beth!"

Conf end

Cut to Gray Team

The Heather and Axel duo are walking together in the forest, making their way to a trap that Axel laid out. Heather decides to make conversation. "So, do you remember when I told you about killing the squirrel then you were angry… why were you upset?" Heather questions.

Axel gives out a long sigh. Before she can talk, Ripper runs up to the pair.

"Hey Heather, hey Axel… can you give us a minute alone Heather?" Ripper requests.

"Sure." Heather responds, rolling her eyes as she walks away.

Confessional: Heather

"I guess he was her problem…"

Conf end

"What do you want?" Axel bluntly questions.

"What I want is a date!" Ripper confidently answers.

…

Axel walks off, causing Ripper's smile to drop.

Confessional: Ripper

"What am I doing wrong?"

Conf end

Confessional: Axel

Axel yells in frustration.

Conf end

Elsewhere, Amy and Blaineley are talking while Duncan sits by. "This team is so disrespectful to a queen of television like me!" Blaineley rants.

"Ugh, what happened this time?" Amy asks.

"I was saying that Ripper is fat and ugly-"

"You were so real for that."

"I know, I know!" Blaineley laughs. "Anyways, Chase and Sugar called me a grandma and full of shit, I AM NOT OLD OR DELUSIONAL!"

Duncan begins laughing hysterically, getting confused looks from Amy and Blaineley. "...that was about something else."

The duo get back to their conversation, shrugging after Duncan's explanation. "Jacques laughed along with them, so rude!"

"Those three… Heather… Ripper… ugh this team sucks, Axel is the only tolerable one!" Amy complains.

Confessional: Amy and Blaineley

"When we get our own series, we will make special episodes trashing most of this team." Blaineley vows.

"They aren't really worth the airtime, but we're generous and would give it to them." Amy adds.

Conf end

Confessional: Duncan

"Maybe Chase and Sugar are cooler than I thought… yeah I don't really like Blaineley still, I just don't start conflict because she's friends with Amy.

Conf end

Cut to Red Team

Geoff, Brody, Leshawna, Bridgette, Devin, and Harold are all talking in the main camp. Geoff is in the middle of telling a story about a party he and Bridgette held recently. "So the dude got so drunk that he peed on our mattress! Bridgette was NOT happy!"

"Yeah, I made sure he was banned from ever attending our parties again " Bridgette adds.

"You are kidding!" Devin laughs, finding the story to be wildly entertaining.

"I'm not kidding dude!" Geoff laughs back.

"Yeah I doubt he is, Geoff's parties are wild." Harold says.

"Kidding!" Brody yells, making sure everyone hears the word. "You know, kidding is kind of a negative word. Maybe because it has the word 'kid' in it, and kids are bad! Knowing that, anyone who wants kids in the future is making the wrong decision!"

…

"Okay?" Leshawna says awkwardly.

"I still want them." Devin shrugs.

Confessional: Devin

"Brody seemed to be alright with kids on the race, not sure what all this is about."

Conf end

Confessional: Bridgette

"He is tripping me out, I need to talk to someone about this. Geoff likely won't listen, so I guess I'll try to talk to Leshawna soon."

Conf end

Confessional: Brody

"I'm hoping my hints are working out and Geoff will come to his senses about having children!"

Conf end

Confessional: Geoff

"Brody has been saying some odd stuff recently, I wonder if he's been drinking out here!"

Conf end

We cut to Max, Courtney, and Scott together in the forest. Max is holding two masks made out of leaves. "What are those?" Scott questions.

"These are masks obviously!" Max replies.

"Why do you have those… and how did you make them?" Courtney asks.

"I used some sap to stick these leaves together! These are going to be your minion costumes, we need to be a united team!" Max informs. Scott and Courtney look at each other before bursting out laughing, unable to contain themselves.

"You think we're going to be wearing those?" Scott laughs.

"Yeah, why wouldn't you?"

"Because they're stupid." Courtney responds. "Max, look, I think we need to teach you some things about this game."

"What could you possibly teach me?" Max inquires.

"We both ranked higher than you in our seasons, pretty sure we're smarter than you." Courtney states.

"Excuse me, but I'm smart enough to not need a chart to keep track of four people." Max calmly replies.

"Fuck you!" Courtney spits out. "But what we need to tell you is that we shouldn't make this alliance so obvious!"

"Why? We can intimidate them with how EVIL we are, they'll practically be begging to get voted out!"

Scott sighs. "They won't beg to be voted out, the others will just band against us since we are already not well liked. We were the last three picked for this team for crying out loud!"

Max looks at the duo and groans. "Urgh, y'all may have a point."

Confessional: Max

"These minions are much better than HARLOT ever was, they have ideas that assist me and DON'T TRY KILLING ME! I will take care of their resistance to the masks eventually though…"

Conf end

Confessional: Scott and Courtney

"He is so stupid!" Courtney groans.

"Is it bad that I'm kinda enjoying his presence in a weird way, there's never a dull moment with him!" Scott laughs. Courtney glares at this admission and he frowns.

Conf end

Cut to Blue Team

The camp is mostly silent as Tammy, Julia, and MK are elsewhere. Ella, Dwayne, Gerry, and Pete are sitting in the camp, with the former two watching The Tennis Rivals lay on the ground. "You two seem weak at the moment…" Ella frowns. "Want me to get you some water?"

"Why do you care?" Pete snaps. "You voted for me last night!"

"Oh my Pete, I didn't want to vote for Mickey, no need to be hostile!" Ella says.

"Yeah Pete, give her a break." Gerry adds. "I got a vote and you didn't see me complain about it."

"You've lost your competitive spirit." Pete states.

"You've lost your-"

"Okay guys, we don't need to hear banter." Dwayne interjects. "I'll get water."

"Good, better you than Ella!" Pete laughs, causing Ella to frown.

Confessional: Ella

"I miss Mickey already, he was a lot more positive than Pete or Dwayne…"

Conf end

Confessional: Pete and Gerry

"I am a pro at holding grudges, I still don't forget Fred Hale costing us the championship back in 81'!" Pete growls.

"It's been 45 years Pete, time to move on!"

Conf end

Elsewhere, Tammy is walking around in silence, enjoying the quiet of the forest.

…

"Hey Tammy!" Julia yells. Tammy turns around to see the influencer and kleptomaniac make their way towards her.

"Hey girls." Tammy replies, curious as to what they're calling her for.

"So…" Julia says. "I noticed how well you did in the last challenge, you almost won us the Simon Says game."

"Thanks for noticing that, I wanted to redeem myself after not doing too great before." Tammy smiles.

"You did redeem yourself." MK compliments. "You're definitely a better challenge competitor than Gerry or Pete."

"You're so good that we want to form an alliance with you. A trio of the strongest girls running the team sounds like a great idea, right?" Julia offers.

Tammy puts a hand on one of her chins before smiling. "Alright, I'm in!"

"Great, we're going to crush it!" Julia cheers.

Confessional: Julia and MK

Julia vomits into a bucket. "Ugh, complimenting her was so hard!"

"I know, we're working with a girl who wears a viking helmet, but we chose her for a reason." MK states.

"She's not smart and will do whatever we say, we needed someone for a trio eventually, she's just the easiest option!" Julia smirks.

Conf end

Confessional: Tammy

"I know Julia and MK seemed mean when they played before… but if I can change, who's to say they can't either? MK hasn't done anything bad this time, and Julia just argues with people not on our team. They've acted nicer than the rest of the team other than Ella, so they might have good intentions!"

Conf end

Cut to Cyan Team

Staci is collecting firewood on the ground as Trent walks up to her. "Hey Staci, what are you doing?"

"I'm collecting firewood, ya! My great great great aunt Elaine invented firewood! Before her, people would burn their babies to make the fire bigger!" Staci explains, prompting a horrified look from Trent.

"I… hope that is a false recollection. I can help you get some firewood though." Trent offers, beginning to assist Staci. "How have you been feeling about this game so far, it's nice that we've gone a week avoiding the eliminations."

"Yeah, it really is! I don't really have any close friends on this team though, I wonder why." Staci questions unironically. "I don't really like Taylor though, she's mean, haha!"

"Yeah, Taylor comes off really high on herself." Trent frowns.

"Can we vote her out next?" Staci asks. Trent gives her a smile, and that's all the confirmation the duo needs to make their next target official.

Confessional: Staci

"Wow, another Taylor hater! I hope in a few generations, my great nieces and nephews will be talking about how I invented Taylor slander, haha!"

Conf end

Confessional: Trent

"Staci is a bit… much at times, but I don't think there are any big alliances at this point. Forming an alliance with her could be smart." Trent states, unaware of the alliance on his team.

Conf end

Cut to Orange Team

Katie and DJ are on their way to the lake, ready to get water. "EEK, thanks for coming with me DJ!"

"No problem." DJ replies. "How have you been, we haven't talked much the past few days."

"I have been so totally good!" Katie answers. "It's nice to compete again after all this time."

"Yeah, I remember you telling me at Geoff's parties that you always wanted another chance to compete… sorry for voting you out by the way."

"It's like okay DJ, it's been 7 years. I wouldn't have kept contact with you all this time if I was mad!" Katie replies. "I plan on going all the way!"

DJ hesitates before replying. "Well if you plan on going all the way, can I give you some advice?"

"Sure!"

"The way you and Sadie have been acting has rubbed people the wrong way. Caleb, Priya, and Laurie dislike you two." DJ informs.

"EEK I know they dislike us, I feel like Priya and Laurie overreact to Sadie!" Katie responds.

"You and Sadie cause drama too though, it isn't solely them, so the dislike is mutual which causes more drama." DJ says.

"I don't dislike anyone, I just have to defend my girl Sadie!"

"You don't dislike anyone?"

"Well no, Sadie does. We have to stick together, so I defend her in arguments!"

DJ sighs. "Maybe tell her to apologize to Priya and Caleb. Caleb is dating Priya, and Sadie talking about how hot he is all the time when Priya asked you not to is disrespecting their relationship. You don't really need to apologize to Laurie though, she's being irrational.'

"Omg, I didn't mean to disrespect Caleb and Priya's relationship!" Katie panics. "I will like try to apologize!"

Confessional: Katie

"I didn't think I was doing anything wrong until talking to DJ today. He is totally rational and I trust his opinions on stuff!"

Conf end

Confessional: DJ

"I hate drama, and I've been friendly with Katie and Sadie for years. I'll try to help them out while also stopping the fighting, two birds with one stone."

Conf end

Elsewhere, Dawn and Ezekiel are carrying firewood back to camp while making conversation. "I'm sorry Chris tricked you into thinking you were on the All Stars cast…" Dawn apologizes after Ezekiel wraps up the story of his appearance in episode 1 of All Stars.

"Eh it's fine, I wasn't really All Star worthy anyways. A lot of people wanted to see you though." Ezekiel informs.

"Really? Don told me in my pregame interview that I was popular, but I didn't know people thought I was All Star worthy! That makes me glad to hear." Dawn warmly smiles. The good vibes don't last forever however, as an angry Priya comes storming by.

"Priya, what happened?" Dawn questions politely.

"Stupid Sadie again! She was ranting to Millie and B about how hot she thinks Caleb is. I told her to stop and she started crying!" Priya grunts out.

"Calm down Priya, take deep breaths." Dawn says, putting her hands on Priya's shoulders. Priya smacks her hands away.

"How can I calm down? I've asked her to stop multiple times and she keeps on doing it!" Priya shouts.

"Priya, you have to put yourself in a positive mindset and just let things roll off your back from time to time."

"It isn't that easy." Priya glares.

"I know it isn't. Your abusive upbringing and social isolation from others while training for Total Drama growing up has manifested in you not knowing how to react in social situations at times, but-" Dawn says before an angry Priya snaps.

"Excuse me?" Priya yells, clearly annoyed. "It was not an abusive upbringing, my family was just trying to help me!"

Ezekiel looks uncomfortable at the ongoing conversation. Before Dawn can respond to Priya's claim, Priya storms off angrier than ever. "Why was she so upset?" Dawn questions.

"She probably didn't appreciate you just saying that her family was abusive bluntly like that…" Ezekiel answers, getting a confused look from Dawn.

Confessional: Priya

"Who does Dawn think she is? Why does everyone always question my parents? Millie, Dawn, a lot of the fanbase… what they wanted for me ended up working out, right? I won TDI23 and could've won 24 if not for Julia's idol, they just wanted me to be successful and I did that…"

Conf end

Confessional: Dawn

"I'm worried about Priya, her staying on this island isn't good for her!"

Conf end

Confessional: Ezekiel

"I know this is rich coming from me… but I think Dawn doesn't realize how she comes off. She's a nice person and I really like her, but she just casually talks about people's auras and reveals secrets in front of others."

Conf end

Cut to Green Team

Miles is meditating on a tree stump. Her meditation is interrupted by the duo of Shawn and Nichelle, who walk in to talk to her. "Hey Miles!" Shawn greets with a wave.

"Hi… is Scary Girl around?" Miles worries.

"Nope." Nichelle responds while checking her nails. "We need to ask you something. How did you find a net to trap Scary Girl in? We want to use it to catch a deer or some other big animal."

Miles freezes upon hearing the reason Nichelle and Shawn want a net. "Oh… um…"

The duo notices Miles' discomfort. "We need to keep our team strong…" Shawn states.

Miles sighs. "Alright, I'll tell you."

Confessional: Miles

"I am a vegan, but I respect that my teammates aren't. It's not like I'm the one killing the animals myself, so even though I feel a bit guilty, I'll let Shawn and Nichelle get a net…"

Conf end

Confessional: Shawn and Nichelle

"Score!" Shawn shouts.

"Jerry would NEVER be able to kill an animal because HE SUCKS AT EVERYTHING!" Nichelle yells.

"Who is Jerry?"

"Strap in, it's a long story…"

Conf end

In the main camp, Josee, Sam, Dakota, and Alejandro are sitting around.

"Has anyone seen where Mike went?" Alejandro questions.

"For a walk." Josee replies. "It's good that he is exercising, the rest of us should probably get on that too and go for a run."

"I suppose I can do that." Alejandro says. Scary Girl suddenly jumps into the camp, no one caring to ask where she was before.

"Running? Sounds exciting!" she says enthusiastically, giving chills to everyone else.

"Eh…" Sam starts. "Do we need to go on a run?"

"It's good to keep in shape for challenges, I train all the time before a competition!" Josee replies.

"But we aren't getting that many calories, burning the ones we have instead of conserving energy doesn't seem that smart." Sam reasons.

"Or you're just lazy." Josee sneers.

"I'm not being lazy, I'm just trying to think of what's best for the team." Sam defends.

"If you had an actual job that wasn't sitting on the computer all day, then maybe-"

"ENOUGH!" Dakota roars out, startling Josee. "I'm not going to let you insult him. We can go on a run, but his point makes sense. If he doesn't want to run, he doesn't have to and you shouldn't judge him for it."

After recovering from the shock of Dakota's yell, Josee scoffs at her too. "Whatever." is her verbal response, getting an eyebrow raise from Alejandro.

Confessional: Alejandro

"I firmly believe she is the minority alliance's target instead of me, which is good. If they find an idol and use it correctly, I could've been toast. Speaking of idols… maybe it's time to find one again."

Conf end

Confessional: Dakota and Sam

"Thanks for standing up for me Dakota!"

"I'll always stand up for you!"

Conf end

Confessional: Josee

"Whatever, I'll let them live in denial."

Conf end

Confessional: Scary Girl

We see Scary Girl checking the confessional booth. "Aw… no human fingers to be found!"

Conf end

Cut to Pink Team

Near the lake, we see Izzy, EmmaRR, and Scarlett sitting together.

"What did you two need me here for? I have more mud to throw at Dave, so this better be important!" Izzy states.

"We want to form an alliance with you." Scarlett bluntly says, no wasted time on her part.

"Ok." Izzy accepts.

…

"It feels like something should happen now." Emma comments.

Confessional: EmmaRR

"Forming a trio with two psychos was weirdly calm…"

Conf end

Confessional: Scarlett

"We aren't animals here on the Pink Team, no need to get dramatic with a simple alliance offer."

Conf end

Confessional: Izzy

"Ok… now to find Dave."

Conf end

Elsewhere, Mary and Gwen are chatting in the camp. "Tomorrow we will have been here for 10 days." Mary says.

"Yeah, and we haven't lost anyone yet!"

"We are one of the best performing teams consistently, only Lime has been outperforming us" Mary informs.

"...I won't comment on that, commenting on possible future team performances didn't end so well for me in the Amazon." Gwen laughs.

"Well since we're nearing double digits in days, should we discuss our future voting options?" Mary inquires.

"Sure." Gwen shrugs. "It's probably Scarlett, Dave, or Sky. Scarlett isn't well liked, and Sky and Dave hate each other and are the only current source of drama on the team."

"Exactly, glad we're on the same page." Mary smiles.

"...I just remembered something. Chris said there were idols, right?" Gwen asks. "Do you think anyone on the team has found one?"

"Depends on how hard they are to find." Mary says. "I haven't been looking, but I wouldn't be shocked if others have."

Confessional: Mary

"Like I said, I won't tell Gwen- or anyone else for that better- about the idol. I'm debating on if I will in the future or not, we'll see."

Conf end

Confessional: Gwen

"I'm feeling good with my spot on the team at the moment, I'm not a target and I have good allies."

Conf end

Cut to Yellow Team

Bowie, Raj, and Emma23 are looking in bushes together. "This is so exciting!" Emma squeals while searching. "I was eliminated last time before the idol was hidden, searching for one is so fun!"

"Is it?" Bowie asks. "I work hard to keep my hands looking and feeling good, they're getting all scratched up."

"Ugh Bowie you can live if something about you isn't perfect for a few months." Emma replies. Bowie rolls his eyes and continues searching.

"I wish I looked for the idol more instead of just talking to Wayne and being sad about your elimination, Bowie." Raj comments as he lifts a log, hoping to see the idol. "Maybe I could've lasted longer."

"We can't change the past, let's focus on the future!" Emma confidently says.

"Yeah, we can be the finale and redeem any regrets from the past two seasons… but if we're going to get there, we need to make sure we survive this team." Bowie tells his allies. "Y'all like Owen, Noah, Carrie, and Kitty, right?"

"Yeah, the girls and I talk a lot!" Emma smiles.

"Owen and I plan to have an eat off of Chef's food when this is said and done!" Raj adds.

Bowie grimaces at the idea of Raj eating more of Chef's food, but he ignores it to continue his point. "Unless we don't lose until a merge or team shakeup… we will likely have to betray them. If we vote out Crimson and Ennui, one of us would be next."

"Yeah, we've talked about this before." Emma says, knowing what Bowie was implying when he said there were other options to vote that weren't Lorenzo at their last elimination.

"Aw… so we'll have to vote one of our friends off?" Raj frowns, being more so an emotional player than a strategic one.

"Yeah." Bowie sighs. "We need to build a bridge with the Goths."

"Omg I love makeup!" Emma smiles. "We can totally bond with them over that-"

"No, the trick is to try and not to be their friends or be all energetic when they're around. When we see The Goths, act emo and sad so they can relate to us." Bowie says. Emma and Raj burst out laughing at Bowie's suggestion. "What, am I wrong?"

"No!" Emma laughs. "So we just have to be all moody to bond with them, that just sounds funny to me!"

"Well, we should get practicing." Bowie says in his energetic voice. He clears his throat before going monotone. "Life sucks."

"The world is terrible." Raj adds.

"Death is inevitable." Emma continues. The trio laugh before continuing their search.

Confessional: Raj and Bowie

"Your idea is so smart Bowie!" Raj cheers.

"Thank you!"

Conf end

Confessional: Emma23

"I really want to not lose again so we don't have to vote out one of our friends, but Bowie is right. If we lose, working with The Goths is a smarter option and if we have to change our personalities around them to do it… then so be it!"

Conf end

Cut to Lime Team

It is more of the same on the Lime Team. They are relaxing with their ever growing set of rewards. As Chris promised, they have been given some items for entertainment. Ellody, Sierra, Eva, and Rodney are setting up a game of Monopoly on a mini table.

Jo groans as she pulls a jump rope and hula hoop out of the gift box. "What is this, PE class?" She then pulls out two dumbbells, causing Lightning to run over.

"Lightning needs this to stay in shape, my muscles are depleting from the lack of food!" Lightning states, yanking the dumbbells out of Jo's hands.

"Whatever." Jo eye rolls. "There is also a football, basketball, and baseball in here."

"No hockey pucks?" Wayne frowns.

"Nope."

"Aw man, I would've loved that." Wayne sulks as Junior takes the baseball out of the box, as well as a bat that Jo neglected to mention.

"I play baseball a lot at home." Junior says, striking his hand lightly with the bat.

"Oh sha-please, that ain't even close to being as good of a sport as football!" Lightning says, dropping the dumbbells to grab the football instead. Ryan picks the dumbbells up.

"I-" Wayne tries to say.

"Can we not have a sports debate?" Stephanie interjects, knowing that Wayne was going to retort Lightning's love of football with his own love of hockey.

"Alright, y'all are lucky that you got your favorite sports equipment." Wayne tells Lightning and Junior. Junior has an awkward look on his face while looking at Wayne. "Is something wrong?"

"Would you be annoyed if I asked you to pitch for me?" Junior asks, not wanting to bother Wayne. Wayne, being ever positive, has a smile on his face.

"Sure, I can brag to Rajie when we see each other that I'm a professional baseball pitcher!" Wayne replies. The duo begin walking off, but before they can get too far, they hear screaming.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? THIS GAME IS BULLSHIT!" Eva yells, flipping the monopoly board off the mini table. Ellody, Sierra, and Rodney look scared as Eva storms off.

"What happened?" Jo asks while shocked.

"Monopoly did." Ellody replies.

"Oh, makes sense."

Confessional: Ellody

"Studies show that Monopoly is the board game that causes the most rage."

Conf end

Confessional: Ryan and Stephanie

"I'm with Eva, that game is annoying." Stephanie says.

"Yeah, I remember you trashing our kitchen because of it…"

Conf end

Confessional: Eva

"Erm… okay, that didn't show my improvements in anger management…"

Conf end

Confessional: Rodney

"I know Ellody is my soulmate… but Eva looked pretty great flipping over the board!"

Conf end

Confessional: Sierra

"Maybe we should try Candy Land tomorrow instead…"

Conf end

Confessional: Junior

"I don't know why I felt nervous asking Wayne to pitch for me, but I'm glad he said yes." Junior smiles.

Conf end

Confessional: Wayne

"Hockey will always be my #1, but I'm always willing to give other sports a try! Junior said he felt excluded a few days ago, so I'll play baseball with him so he doesn't feel left out."

Conf end

Confessional: Jo

"This reward isn't as appealing to me personally as the first two we won, but if it keeps everyone entertained and happier than the other teams, we will crush them to win more rewards easier." Jo laughs.

Conf end

Confessional: Lightning

"Can we get a protein reward next? Lightning can't deal with more shrinkage!"

Conf end

Day 10

We cut to Chris, who is standing on an elevated platform on the beach. Near him are 92 platforms in a circle above the water, with a big machine in the middle of it

The Red, Green, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Gray, Lime, and Cyan teams all walk in, taking note of the challenge set. They make their way to their team mats as is tradition. "Alright teams, getting your first look at the new Blue Team. Mickey voted out at the last elimination."

As is usual, at least one of the eliminations does not get a shocked reaction, this being among them.

Confessional: Kitty

"Part of me feels sad that both of the twins are gone since I bonded with them in Brazil…"

Conf end

Confessional: B

B shrugs, clearly not surprised.

Confessional: Sugar

"GOOD! HE SHOULD'VE BEEN BOOTED INSTEAD OF THE WIZARD LAST TIME!"

Conf end

Confessional: Sky

"That team is making good choices." Sky says. "They're getting rid of all of their weakest players."

Conf end

Confessional: Owen and Noah

"I'll miss him so much!" Owen sobs.

"You haven't spoken to them in years Owen…"

Conf end

Once everyone is settled in on analyzing the 7 remaining members of Blue Team, Purple Team makes their entrance. "Getting your first look at the new Purple Team. Beth was voted out at last night's elimination." Chris says to a chorus of gasps.

Confessional: Leshawna

"Aw man, Beth going early sucks."

Conf end

Confessional: Caleb

"Another big name finalist has gone early…" Caleb mutters. "I hope I don't follow that trend."

Conf end

Confessional: Millie

"People seen as generally brainier finalists have gotten the boot… uh oh!"

Conf end

Confessional: Harold

"Hey, she can't kiss me this time." Harold shrugs.

Conf end

Confessional: Topher

"YES!" Topher shouts at the top of his lungs in glee. "MY PLAN WORKED, THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR NOT PICKING ME!"

Conf end

"Oh no, not Beth!" Topher frowns. "Lindsay, Tyler, I'm so sorry."

The Purple Team looks confused, as they know it was Topher's fault. Before anyone can call out his insincerity, Lindsay pipes up. "It isn't your fault!"

Confessional: Lindsay

"I'll act like I don't know for now, calling him out in front of everyone wouldn't work too well I think."

Conf end

"Ok, are we ready for today's challenge?" Chris questions, rubbing his hands together in excitement.

"It doesn't matter if we're ready or not, we'll have to do it anyway." Heather replies.

"You know me so well! Anyways, there are 92 platforms in a circle. In the middle is a sweeper that will be spinning around the circle. It is a red padded bar that will start off very low to the ground and move very slowly, but will progressively get higher and faster. You have to continuously jump over this sweeper when it comes towards you. If you get knocked off your platform, you are out of the challenge. As usual, the first two teams to lose every member are up for elimination and will vote someone out tonight. Everything clear?"

After everyone makes it known they understand the challenge, everyone gets ready.

Confessional: Carrie

"This challenge seems familiar…"

Conf end

Confessional: Chase

"This is just like Wipeout!" Chase laughs with happiness. "I competed on the show before and did well on the sweeper, I got this."

Conf end

Confessional: Zoey

"Not gonna lie, this seems kinda fun!"

Conf end

Confessional: Jacques

"Josee and I jump all the time to gracefully get onto camera, this should be easy!"

Conf end

Confessional: Mike

"Svetlana, I'm so glad your spirit is in me!

Conf end

Confessional: Ennui and Crimson

"Good thing we invested in waterproof makeup after the race." Ennui says.

"Yeah, we would've been ungothed after the first challenge if not."

Conf end

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Leshawna, Bridgette, Geoff, Brody, Devin, Brick, Courtney, Max, Scott

Purple Team: Tyler, Lindsay, Cody, Sanders, MacArthur, Damien, Zee, Rock, Chet

Blue Team: Tammy, Julia, MK, Gerry, Pete, Dwayne, Ella

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Junior, Rodney, Ellody, Sierra

Cyan Team: Kelly, Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, Trent, Justin, Staci, Topher

Everyone is lined up on the platforms in order of team. All Red Team members are in a row, as are Purple, Blue, etc. "Alright, the sweeper will start moving… now!" Chris says. The sweeper starts between Topher and Harold, and it moves at a snail's pace towards Harold. Harold easily jumps over it and pumps his fist.

"Booyah, my mad skills came into play there!" he brags.

"That was coming at you very slowly, dweeb!" Duncan yells. Leshawna, Bridgette, Geoff, Brody, Devin, Brick, and Courtney easily jump over the sweeper as well. Max on the other hand points at the machine.

"You there! Stop moving!" Max demands. The sweeper continues to move. "DO AS I SAY-"

With that, despite the slow moving machine, Max is knocked off his platform into the water below.

Confessional: Max

"Grr… that sweeper will rue the day it decided to not listen to the EVIL master of this world!"

Conf end

Confessional: Brick

"I hate to be a negative teammate… but does Max bring anything to the table?"

Conf end

The sweeper now continues on to the Purple Team. Rock jumps and screams upon landing, clutching at his ankle again. He sits down on his platform as the sweeper moves on to the Blue Team.

"Rock, you should just jump down." Cody suggests. "You'll hurt yourself even more if you don't."

Rock sighs, knowing that Cody is right. He scoots to the edge of his platform and falls in. The sweeper doesn't get anyone from Blue, Green, or Pink, but that changes when it gets to the Orange Team. Katie jumps over the sweeper.

"EEK come on Sadie, you can do it!" Katie encourages.

"I totally like can!" Sadie replies. Sadie goes to jump but can't get in the air, allowing the sweeper to knock her off. "EEK NO!"

Confessional: Sadie

"I was so totally robbed!" Sadie cries.

Conf end

Confessional: Laurie

"Can she do anything right?"

Conf end

The sweeper goes through every remaining team, no one else falling off.

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Leshawna, Bridgette, Geoff, Brody, Devin, Brick, Courtney, Scott

Purple Team: Tyler, Lindsay, Cody, Sanders, MacArthur, Damien, Zee, Chet

Blue Team: Tammy, Julia, MK, Gerry, Pete, Dwayne, Ella

Green Team: Dakota, Sam, Mike, Shawn, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro, Scary Girl, Miles

Pink Team: Mary, Gwen, Zoey, Sammy, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy, Scarlett, Dave

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Emma23, Kitty, Carrie, Owen, Noah, Crimson, Ennui

Gray Team: Axel, Ripper, Chase, Duncan, Amy, Blaineley, Heather, Jacques, Sugar

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Junior, Rodney, Ellody, Sierra

Cyan Team: Kelly, Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, Trent, Justin, Staci, Topher

The sweeper's height is raised slightly, and it now moves notably quicker. "Gosh!" Harold yells as he clears the sweeper. "This is going to be harder than I thought!"

All of Red and Purple manage to avoid falling off, though Blue Team isn't so lucky. Gerry and Pete barely get any height on the jump, knocking the duo off.

"Ah, that thing hit my artificial knee!" Pete complains. Everyone else in the game manages to clear the round.

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Leshawna, Bridgette, Geoff, Brody, Devin, Brick, Courtney, Scott

Purple Team: Tyler, Lindsay, Cody, Sanders, MacArthur, Damien, Zee, Chet

Blue Team: Tammy, Julia, MK, Dwayne, Ella

Green Team: Dakota, Sam, Mike, Shawn, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro, Scary Girl, Miles

Pink Team: Mary, Gwen, Zoey, Sammy, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy, Scarlett, Dave

Orange Team: Katie, Caleb, Priya, Millie, DJ, Dawn, Ezekiel, Laurie, B

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Emma23, Kitty, Carrie, Owen, Noah, Crimson, Ennui

Gray Team: Axel, Ripper, Chase, Duncan, Amy, Blaineley, Heather, Jacques, Sugar

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Junior, Rodney, Ellody, Sierra

Cyan Team: Kelly, Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, Trent, Justin, Staci, Topher

"Things seem easy." Chris laughs. "Not for long!"

The difficulty again increases. The Red Team avoid any falls. Lindsay's boot catches on the sweeper as she jumps, but she just faceplants onto her platform without falling off. Cody isn't so lucky, as when his feet catch the sweeper, he falls onto his stomach near the edge and rolls off.

"Oh barbecue sauce…" Cody mutters as he swims to shore. Zee also falls victim to this round as his reaction time isn't quick enough.

MK barely clears the sweeper when it comes to the Blue Team. "Yeah, I'm probably not surviving the next round." she tells her team. "I have a plan though, Dwayne and Ella, be prepared to jump high."

"Alright!" Ella says as she succeeds in her jump. Sam doesn't jump particularly high when the sweeper comes to the Green Team, ending his run in the challenge.

"Maybe if you were training, you would've been able to jump over that…" Josee mutters to herself.

It isn't until Gray Team that another person is knocked out of the challenge, as Ripper fails his attempt. Chase effortlessly clears it. "Hey Emma, I'm doing pretty good aren't I?"

"I'm not paying attention to you!" Emma yells back. Lightning resists making a comment when Junior is knocked off next.

"Did you know that my great great great aunt Janet invented sweepers?" Staci asks.

"Staci, focus on the damn challenge!" Taylor yells. This didn't get through to Staci in time as she was knocked off to end the round.

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Leshawna, Bridgette, Geoff, Brody, Devin, Brick, Courtney, Scott

Purple Team: Tyler, Lindsay, Sanders, MacArthur, Damien, Chet

Blue Team: Tammy, Julia, MK, Dwayne, Ella

Green Team: Dakota, Mike, Shawn, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro, Scary Girl, Miles

Pink Team: Mary, Gwen, Zoey, Sammy, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy, Scarlett, Dave

Orange Team: Katie, Caleb, Priya, Millie, DJ, Dawn, Ezekiel, Laurie, B

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Emma23, Kitty, Carrie, Owen, Noah, Crimson, Ennui

Gray Team: Axel, Chase, Duncan, Amy, Blaineley, Heather, Jacques, Sugar

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Rodney, Ellody, Sierra

Cyan Team: Kelly, Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, Trent, Justin, Topher

The next round begins with all of the Red and Purple teams successfully jumping over the sweeper. Tammy barely makes it over while Julia clears it with ease. MK gets a devilish grin on her face as she jumps and clings onto the sweeper, letting herself go with it. Ella and Dwayne look shocked, but jump as high as they can thanks to MK's warning. Despite this, Dwayne still falls due to MK being on the sweeper. The real trouble however is for everyone else. Once she gets past her teammates, she sits up, making it a lot of harder to jump over. Miles, Mary, Gwen, Sammy, Scarlett, Dave, Katie, Millie, Dawn, Ezekiel, Laurie, B, Emma23, Carrie, Owen, Noah, Ennui, Amy, Blaineley, Sugar, Ellody, Kelly, Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, Trent, Justin, Topher, Leshawna, Bridgette, Devin, Scott, Tyler, Lindsay, MacArthur, and Damien all get knocked off in one fell swoop. Before the sweeper gets to Tammy, Julia, and Ella, MK jumps into the water to avoid hurting their chances.

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Geoff, Brody, Brick, Courtney

Purple Team: Sanders, Chet

Blue Team: Tammy, Julia, Ella

Green Team: Dakota, Mike, Shawn, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro, Scary Girl

Pink Team: Zoey, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy

Orange Team: Caleb, Priya, DJ

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Kitty, Crimson

Gray Team: Axel, Chase, Duncan, Heather, Jacques

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Rodney, Sierra

Cyan Team: UP FOR ELIMINATION

"I… I did not expect anyone to do that!" Chris says in shock. "Thanks to a smart move from MK, she just took out 38 people, including all of the Cyan Team, who are now up for elimination."

MK cheers as she exits the water, but she has a ton of glares sent her way. "Hey, don't hate me, if your team was losing everything you'd do the same." she says.

Confessional: Julia

"She's an evil genius!" Julia swoons. "I love her so much!"

Conf end

Confessional: MK

"If we still lose after that, we might as well just give up and rot, we clearly would be cursed."

Conf end

Confessional: Dave

"Well that's just great, someone BS'ed the challenge."

Conf end

Confessional: Sammy

"That was brilliant on her part… but I got out of the challenge before Amy, she can make fun of me for that now!" Sammy rages, disappointed in herself. "Wait, why am I thinking about her?"

Conf end

Confessional: Jasmine

"I'm taller than about 3 MK's stacked, it's clear why she couldn't get me out there."

Conf end

Confessional: Anne Maria

"I- we were doing so well! This is bullshit!" Anne Maria screeches.

Conf end

Confessional: Taylor

"Ugh we have to vote someone out again, but at least we can finally send Staci home."

Conf end

Back to the challenge, Tammy couldn't make it past the round despite MK dropping beforehand. "What do we do?" Ella asks Julia as she jumps over the sweeper. "We still are tied for the least members left, we could still lose despite what MK did!"

"Um, what did Pinocchio say in the first challenge again?" Julia ponders as the sweeper goes to the Green Team. "Oh right. Hey Scary Girl, there's a corpse in the water!"

This does the trick, as Scary Girl instantly goes in the water.

"How are people still falling for that?" Josee growls. Julia rolls her eyes at her. Pink Team all survives getting sweeped, though DJ, Kitty, Heather, and Rodney aren't as lucky moments later.

Remaining:

Red Team: Harold, Geoff, Brody, Brick, Courtney

Purple Team: Sanders, Chet

Blue Team: Julia, Ella

Green Team: Dakota, Mike, Shawn, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro

Pink Team: Zoey, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy

Orange Team: Caleb, Priya

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Crimson

Gray Team: Axel, Chase, Duncan, Jacques

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Sierra

Cyan Team: UP FOR ELIMINATION

Harold's mad skills fail him, as he faceplants onto his platform before falling off, causing Duncan to erupt with laughter. Geoff, Brody, and Brick follow, leaving Courtney alone. "Are you kidding me, we were doing so well before this round!"

As the pace continues to quicken, Sanders and Ella fall off too, leaving three teams with one representative left. Shawn mistimes a jump and gets hit in the stomach, causing his demise.

"No offense Chet…" Courtney starts. "But how are you the last one remaining on your team"

"Gymnastics, duh!" Chet replies.

"Didn't expect you to be a fellow gymnast." Sky remarks as she jumps over.

"Learn something new every day."

"Being a gymnast is so weak!" Duncan laughs. He doesn't laugh for long however, as his laughing distracts him from the sweeper, sealing his fate.

Remaining:

Red Team: Courtney

Purple Team: Chet

Blue Team: Julia

Green Team: Dakota, Mike, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro

Pink Team: Zoey, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy

Orange Team: Caleb, Priya

Yellow Team: Raj, Bowie, Crimson

Gray Team: Axel, Chase, Jacques

Lime Team: Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Sierra

Cyan Team: UP FOR ELIMINATION

"Courtney, Chet, and Julia are the last hopes for each of their teams! Can they pull through?"

The answer is yes for two of them. As the sweeper begins another cycle, Courtney and Julia are able to barely jump over it. Chet's mind wandered a bit from the previous conversation, causing him to jump a bit too early, making his team pay dearly.

"This challenge is over!" Chris announces.

Final Rankings:

1st- Lime Team- 7 remaining (Lightning, Wayne, Ryan, Stephanie, Eva, Jo, Sierra)

2nd/3rd- Green/Pink Teams- 5 remaining (Dakota, Mike, Nichelle, Josee, Alejandro) (Zoey, Jasmine, EmmaRR, Sky, Izzy)

4th/5th- Yellow/Gray Teams- 3 remaining (Raj, Bowie, Crimson) (Axel, Chase, Jacques)

6th- Orange Team- 2 remaining (Caleb, Priya)

7th/8th- Red and Blue Teams- 1 remaining (Courtney) (Julia)

9th- Purple Team- 0 remaining (Up For Elimination)

10th- Cyan Team- 0 remaining (Up For Elimination)

"Cyan Team… Purple Team… you have both lost. I'll be seeing you both at the campfire ceremony tonight to determine the 9th and 10th people voted out of Total Drama Ultimate! Lime Team, you win the reward. You'll be taken to a restaurant tomorrow morning for a nice breakfast and some proper time inside for the first time in 10 days."

"Sha-bam! Four 1st place finishes, this is the best team ever!" Lightning cheers. Lime Team all share a group hug, feeling very unified and excited for their next reward. Tom and Jen on the other hand have disappointed looks plastered onto them.

Lindsay walks up to the fashionable duo. "Hey Tom, hey Jen!"

"OMG hi Lindsay!" Jen squeals, her mood improving instantly.

"Wow, we are talking to THE Lindsay!" Tom joins in squealing.

"I have to tell you something… about Topher." Lindsay says.

"What is that?" Tom questions.

"Well he got upset at me…" Lindsay states.

"What for?"

"He told me that he didn't try to jump over MK on purpose because he was trying to take up one of the losing spots to save Tyler and I, but we blew it by losing anyway. I don't think that's very fair to your team, he's my assistant but throwing challenges is wrong." Lindsay lies. The fashion bloggers aren't privy to this being a lie, and they gasp in shock.

"Oh my god…"

Confessional: Tom and Jen

"We should have known." Tom shakes his head.

"Exactly, someone who wanted to dress like that senior citizen Chris must be up to no good!" Jen agrees.

"We have to tell Anne and Taylor about this!"

Conf end

Confessional: Tyler and Lindsay

"We spent every moment since we found out what happened trying to make our game plan to avenge Beth." Tyler says.

"We… didn't have any original ideas, so we just did what Topher did."

Conf end

Confessional: Dwayne

"Finally we didn't lose!" Dwayne cheers.

Conf end

Confessional: Rock

"I may be cooked…"

Conf end

Cut to Cyan Team back at camp

Trent and Justin are talking by the lake. "Well… that sucks, we're back up for elimination." Trent states.

"Well, I know who I'm voting for." Justin says.

"Anne?"

"You know it!"

After that exchange happens, Staci walks up to the duo. "Hey guys, can we vote for Taylor? She sucks more than a-"

"Don't finish that sentence." Justin pleads. "I'm voting for Anne Maria, can you do that instead?"

"But Taylor sucks, haha!" Staci laughs.

"But Anne Maria is worse!" Justin retorts. Trent facepalms at the duo, wanting them to come to a consensus.

Confessional: Justin

"It was just a stray vote the first time because I wanted to make her mad… this time, I want her gone!"

Conf end

Elsewhere, Kelly, Taylor, and Topher are talking.

"We are just asking you one thing… can you vote for Staci tonight?" Kelly asks.

"Staci? You didn't even have to ask, she is annoying and useless." Topher tells the mother daughter duo.

"Thank you!" Taylor exclaims. "We can send her home!"

"No problem." Topher replies. Kelly smiles at this exchange, though Taylor looks a tad nervous.

"I need to use the bathroom, I'll be back!"

Confessional: Kelly

"I've had a few disagreements with her recently, so I won't be sad to see Staci go."

Conf end

Confessional: Topher

"Meh, always glad to have an easy boot."

Conf end

It turns out that Taylor needing to use the bathroom was a convenient excuse to go talk to her alliance, as she is now meeting up with Tom, Jen, and Anne Maria. "Hey hey hey, I'm finally here! Sorry, mom was slowing me down." Taylor says.

"What were y'all doing?" Anne Maria asks.

"We got Topher to vote for Staci, can we send biggie home now?" Taylor requests.

"Honestly… I'd rather it be Justin." Anne Maria replies.

"Ugh, too many flops on our team." Taylor complains. "We both have ugly enemies. Staci is worse in the challenges though, so I feel like she should go over Justin-"

"It shouldn't be either of them!" Tom interjects, getting raised eyebrows from Anne Maria and Taylor.

"Why not, who else is even an option?" Anne Maria questions.

"Topher." Tom says.

"Why?" Taylor asks with a raised eyebrow, unsure of Tom's motivation.

"We were told something by Lindsay…" Jen frowns. "Apparently, he didn't even try to jump over MK in the challenge to try and help her team win by taking up one of the losing spots."

Taylor and Anne Maria gasp. "Wow, and I thought he was the best of the people not in our alliance!" Anne Maria angrily says.

"Yeah that's shady and all… but he likely would've lost anyways." Taylor mentions. "He wasn't going to beat Courtney and Julia I fear."

"Well… you do have a point." Tom admits. "Staci or Justin leaving still could be a good idea as what he did today likely didn't change the result."

"Is that really the point though? If he's willing to throw challenges, we will keep going to elimination. If everyone tries, even Staci doesn't bog us down too hard." Jen retorts. The foursome look at each other, now pondering who the best option to target is.

Confessional: Taylor

"This was a way harder vote than I thought, ugh! Time to go tell mom who the vote is and force her to vote with me."

Conf end

Confessional: Tom and Jen

"Wow, this is our main character moment!" Tom squeals.

"I know, we are leading strategists!"

Conf end

Cut to Purple Team

Rock sighs in the camp, looking at his even more hurt ankle. Chet walks up to him. "Hey Rock."

"Hi… I got lucky about the whole Beth drama, I think I'm toast for sure this time which is a real bummer." Rock frowns.

"Maybe you aren't toast just yet." Chet smirks. "I want to try and get Cody out, pipsqueak can't just vote me and get away with it!"

"Are you sure that you can get three more people to vote out Cody?" Rock questions. Chet smiles confidently in return.

Confessional: Chet

"I said I'd get my revenge…"

Conf end

We cut to see a squad of Zee, Damien, Tyler, and Lindsay. "Can it please be Rock this time? I promise that no one is trying to blindside you Damien!" Tyler assures.

Damien chuckles in response. "Yeah, Rock has to go. I feel bad for the guy, but an injured person won't help us win challenges."

As the group makes a decision, Chet walks in. "Hey guys, who are you planning on voting for?"

"Rock, dude's injured." Damien answers.

"Oh… is there anyway you'd consider someone else?" Chet questions.

"No." the four say in unison, chuckling at the accidental group no afterward.

"Oh, okay. Was just asking in case of any blindside attempts!"

Confessional: Chet

"Nevermind, guess getting him out has to wait."

Conf end

We cut to Sanders, MacArthur, and Cody in discussion. "MacArthur… can we please just have this be easy and vote for Rock?" Sanders begs, not wanting another crazy vote like their previous one.

"Voting Rock seems too easy… why don't we pull off a blindside instead? All we'd need is Chet and Rock, that'd be a majority of five." MacArthur offers.

"Um, Chet is targeting me." Cody reminds MacArthur.

"Eh, he would target someone else to save his friend." MacArthur says. "Lindsay, Damien, or Tyler going would really be a big move though."

"A big move isn't a smart move! Rock is injured and we have lost two challenges, we cannot keep the weak teammate around!" Sanders retorts. MacArthur sighs in response to this, causing Sanders to soften. "Okay, how about this? If you resist making a big move tonight… we can vote whoever you want if we lose again."

MacArthur perks up to this offer. "Anyone?"

"Anyone, right Cody?" Sanders responds.

"Yup, just play it safe tonight." Cody says. MacArthur gives a look of deep thought before the camera cuts out.

…

Cut to Cyan Team at the campfire ceremony

"Hello Cyan Team, it's been over a week since I've last seen you… but that good luck ends tonight! Get voting for a loser!"

Voting

"Please go this time, haha!" Staci says while holding a vote for Taylor.

"I'm hoping you're gone tonight Anne Maria!" Justin says.

"Two words: Dead. Weight." Topher laughs while voting Staci.

We get a quick cut of Trent, Kelly, Taylor, Anne Maria, Tom, and Jen voting before we cut back to the campfire.

Voting Over

"If anyone has found a hidden immunity idol and wants to play it, now would be the time to do so…"

…

"Alright. Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will have to leave the campfire ceremony immediately. I'll read the votes."

…

"1st vote… Staci."

Staci frowns.

"2nd vote… Anne Maria."

Justin smirks at Anne Maria, getting a middle finger in response.

"3rd vote… Taylor."

Taylor scoffs.

"4th vote… Taylor. 2 votes Taylor."

Taylor checks her nails, unconcerned about the votes.

"5th vote… Topher."

Topher raises an eyebrow.

"6th vote… Topher. 2 votes Topher, 2 votes Taylor, 1 vote Anne Maria, 1 vote Staci."

Topher's eyes widen, now in fear.

"7th vote… Topher. That's 3 votes Topher, 2 votes Taylor, 1 vote Anne Maria, 1 vote Staci."

Topher's jaw is dropped, not having expected this at all.

"9th person voted out of Total Drama Ultimate… Topher. That's 4, that's enough, it's time for you to go."

…

"I- I- what?" Topher mutters, unable to comprehend what just happened. Trent, Justin, and Staci have similar shocked looks, though Justin isn't upset as Topher would've been his second choice to boot after Anne Maria.

"Time for you to go, bud, take your exit." Chris gestures. Topher wordlessly exits the campfire ceremony, being rendered speechless.

Confessional: Kelly

"Taylor came up to me right before the vote again to tell me who we were voting… not sure how the votes landed on Topher, but she kept me in the loop."

Conf end

Confessional: Trent

"I had no idea that was coming… I feel like something fishy is going on in this team, I voted wrong at both eliminations!"

Conf end

Cyan Team leaves the elimination ceremony, and Purple Team walks in

"Back to back eliminations for you Purple… for your sakes, I hope you fix whatever problem your team has with this one. Get voting!"

…

No voting confessionals were shown here, just a quick cut of everyone writing names down.

"If anyone has found a hidden immunity idol and wants to play it, now would be the time to do so…"

…

"Alright. Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will have to leave the campfire ceremony immediately. I'll read the votes."

…

"1st vote… Cody."

Cody bites his lower lip.

"2nd vote… Rock."

Rock sighs.

"3rd vote… Rock."

Rock's somewhat saddened look doesn't disappear.

"4th vote… Rock. 3 votes Rock, 1 vote Cody."

Rock nods.

"5th vote… Rock. 4 votes Rock, 1 vote Cody."

Rock gives a smile towards his team, indicating that he isn't bitter.

"10th person voted out of Total Drama Ultimate… Rock. That's 5, that's enough, you're eliminated."

…

Rock slowly stands up, relying on his healthy ankle. "Don't worry guys, I understand. Sorry that I couldn't do more to help."

"It's good!" Sanders assures. "You get better, alright?"

"I will." Rock smiles as he walks out.

…

We cut to see Topher's jaw still not picked up. Rock gives a curious look as he hobbles to the dock of shame, but he doesn't bother to make conversation as he can see Topher is devastated. The boat picks the eliminated duo up.

…

We cut back to Chris at the campfire ceremony alone. "Well, two more have bit the dust! We have lost the first tenth of our cast and only 90 remain? Who will go home next? Find out on the next episode of Total… Drama… Ultimate!"

Author's Note: The first 10 boots have happened, making some progress on this story! Not the best chapter I fear and I could see the eliminations not being too popular, but oh well.

Topher- Well, I doubt this was on anyone's bingo cards heading into this episode! Yeah, he didn't have a major villain arc as he got ratted out and taken revenge on right away. This probably won't be a popular move, but he was always planned to be an early boot. The whole assistant story was made very late, literally right as I began writing Lindsay, Beth, and Tyler's intro. He originally had no storyline, but I changed things to give him a few moments to shine before leaving. This storyline isn't finished, as there will be some loser focused episodes, so we shall wonder how he and Beth will interact now that they're out of the game.

Rock- Sorry Rockers fans lol. This was a bit of a cheap way to end his run I'll admit, but he had no plot ideas whatsoever. The ankle thing was used to help make Beth's elimination more suspenseful and give a reason to send Rock out. I injured my ankle doing simple things too, so it isn't that unrealistic.
