Author's Note: Episode 5 is here in pretty quick time.
Mr. Mysterious- Indeed, blue is flopping! We will see how Sammy and Cody do.
Metal Face + Mysterious Guest- I love the contrast of these two reviews lmao.
Guest- We'll see if that happens
Jaron58- Mary stans are eating with this story obvs
Dragontron- Thanks, we'll see if the trend continues
seanjohnson5100- I might do that, it's been implied a lot this season that Chris isn't really as sadistic/unfair as he used to be, an official statement could continue that trend
andrew1- Yeah Lorenzo really had no allies to turn to. We'll see if that Lime downfall is coming (I've said a variation of we'll see to so many comments sorry for my repetitiveness lol)
Doomtron- I will
Magmahound- This cast is very argumentative early, imagine how bad they could get after weeks of not sleeping and eating well!
Omega Leonidas- Thanks
Sir Avalon- True
CMC- Glad you like the Ella/Mickey duo and that the eliminations were satisfying. I doubt anyone was sad those two left lol
Vladiator- One of your suggestions are being used this chapter :). As for virtual reality, not in the near future
Lacuevademisgustos- I bet you were thrilled when Leonard left lol. About the challenges, I was responding to the comment you made saying that it was a short part of the episode, sorry for the confusion lol.
Mortal01- Love all these thoughts and predictions you give on the events of the season. I didn't think of the Noah/Emma and Izzy connection, you're right.
With that, onto the chapter!
Recap
"Last time on Total Drama Ultimate… Green Team had tension about Nichelle and Shawn's votes at the last elimination, though Miles was mad at everyone for not voting out Scary Girl. On Yellow Team, Owen annoyed the Goths, while Lorenzo annoyed the women with his sexist attitude. Ella tried to help train Mickey for the challenges, though his progress got laughed at when Dwayne saw what was going on. Tammy and Leonard again had disagreements over magic. Dawn tried to lead a group therapy session on Orange Team, but no one was interested. Millie tried to ask Priya if being on Total Drama again was harming her mental state, but Priya blew her off right away. Tension brewed on the Red Team as Brody didn't seem thrilled at the prospect of less partying if Geoff and Bridgette had kids. Elsewhere, Scott and Courtney made up for the 'Chartney' incident in All Stars. Max was there to spoil the reunion. Justin is still mad at Topher for exposing his vote for Anne Maria, though Trent doesn't see what the big deal is. Zoey expressed her disappointment in Duncan for dating Amy, though Sammy doesn't understand why she'd be if Duncan is also a bad person. Gwen found out Mary's… very nerdy hobbies. Dave snapped at Jasmine for bringing up Sky, meanwhile Sky got water dumped on her, courtesy of Izzy. EmmaRR witnessed the lunacy, which allowed Scarlett to plant seeds that she might be a solid ally. Sanders and MacArthur showed their difference in gameplay values, with MacArthur wanting to make a big move while Sanders would rather stay on the downlow. Chase gave Ripper some interesting advice that he should try to get back with Axel by wooing her with romantic gestures. Jo and Lightning formed a pact, let's hope this works out better for them than All Stars did. Junior confided to Wayne that he felt unliked by the team, with Wayne trying to comfort him. Two members of each team had to carry the weight of the team on their shoulders while everyone else would add sandbags to make it more difficult. Blue Team lost easily thanks to having no strong men and everyone having it out for Julia. It came down to Purple vs Yellow, with MacArthur barely outlasting Raj to keep her team safe, with Lime Team winning the reward pretty easily as no one even bothered to target Ryan and Eva. On Blue Team, The Tennis Rivals snapped at Leonard for doing magic during the challenge instead of trying to win. Julia and MK obviously agreed, and we bid farewell to the annoying wizard for the final time in a 6-2-1 vote. On Yellow Team, Bowie and Emma23 saw Raj upset, but before they could find out why, Lorenzo came in to try and save himself. It didn't work, and his sexist attitude earned him an early 9-1 trip to loserville! 94 are left, which two campers will leave this episode?
Intro
Day 7
Cut to Yellow Team
The team are all scattered around the main camp, it being early in the morning. The Goths are sitting alone, Owen and Noah are making conversation, as are Carrie, Kitty, and Emma23. Raj is sitting by himself in thought, though he isn't alone for long as Bowie sits next to him.. "How are you doing Raj?"
"Good!" Raj replies with a smile.
"Well that's nice to hear after yesterday." Bowie says. "So… should we talk about what happened-"
"I already said what was wrong, I rubbed a plant in my eye." Raj forcibly laughs. "Don't worry."
Bowie sighs. "Alright, you don't want to talk about it. I won't pressure you or anything, but just know that if you're ready to tell me why you were upset, I will be here. I still remember you being there for me after I lost TDI23, I'll be here for you whenever you need it."
Raj takes a moment to think before replying. "Thanks." is all he says before leaning his head on Bowie's shoulder. The duo sit together in silence until they hear loud, grotesque coughing that goes on for 15 seconds.
"Owen, stop coughing so loud!" Noah yells, clearly irritated.
"Sorry, I thought that is how you were supposed to get everyone's attention!" Owen apologizes.
"Do you need to say something?" Emma questions.
"I just wanted to talk after last night, I think it's cool that we were united in the vote!" Owen says.
"Well that isn't an accomplishment, Lorenzo was awful." Carrie laughs.
"Even though it was sad to see him go-'
"Was it?" Noah interrupts.
"It kind of was." Owen says. "I did some thinking and I realized that this season is the last time everyone on this show is going to be together…"
"And?" Kitty asks, unsure where Owen is going with his speech.
"Well, shouldn't we cherish this? Total Drama has changed all of our lives one way or another. Noah wouldn't have met Emma if not for the race. Carrie might have not gotten together with Devin if not for this show. Bowie and Raj wouldn't have met each other, Kitty and Carrie wouldn't be friends, I wouldn't have met my buddy Noah!" Owen rants.
"That is true…" Carrie mutters, thinking about how the good Ridonculous Race brought to her life.
"I just want everyone to appreciate this. Even if there are meanies like Lorenzo or Al or Heather or whoever, this game is closing a significant chapter of our lives!" Owen states. Most of the team has surprised looks, not expecting a speech like this on Owen's part.
"Meh." Ennui replies, not caring too much.
"Oh lighten up Ennui, Owen is right." Carrie chuckles.
"True, let's have fun with this!" Emma cheers. The non Goth teammates cheer, even Noah cracking a smile.
Confessional: Owen
"I'm going to be so sad when this is over! I'll miss seeing everyone frequently, even Chris and Chef!"
Conf end
Confessional: Noah
"You know… I may be cynical on a lot of things and I give this low budget show a lot of shit, but Owen is right. Total Drama has brought a lot of important people to my life. Owen, Emma, Kitty, even Eva and Izzy… don't tell anyone I admitted that I'm still friends with Izzy." Noah says while rubbing his arm.
Conf end
Confessional: Crimson and Ennui
"Motivational, positivity driven speeches…" Ennui mutters, referring to what just happens. The duo both cringe.
"I don't like it." Crimson adds.
Conf end
Confessional: Raj
"Last night was great, we took out the poison in the team!" Raj cheers. "If someone on the Snow Owls acted like Lorenzo did to the girls, they would've been kicked out so fast."
Conf end
Confessional: Bowie
"I didn't get anything out of Raj, but like I said, I'll leave it alone until he's ready to talk. Anyways, my main goal is making sure our team doesn't lose again. We could afford to hold off on making a hard decision last time, if we lose again there's no choice."
Conf end
Cut to Blue Team
We see everyone but Tammy lying around in the camp, clearly tired. MK is rubbing Julia's arms as they're still sore from the previous challenge. Dwayne is looking tired as Ella and Mickey have a conversation nearby. Gerry and Pete are laying on the ground, looking in pain. Ella breaks her conversation with Mickey. "Gerry, Pete, are you two doing okay?" she asks.
"No, I'm hungry as hell!" Gerry complains.
"We all are." MK replies without looking in his direction.
"I feel weak and depleted…" Pete groans.
"We all do." Dwayne says, evidently no one is too concerned about the old men.
"We've been camping out here for a week, I haven't even gone camping since the 90s!" Gerry states.
"Try the mid 80s." Pete replies, causing both men to give a weak laugh.
Confessional: Gerry and Pete
"Things are starting to get a little rough for us." Gerry says.
"Yeah, the elements are harder on us than they are for these young kids." Pete adds.
Conf end
Confessional: Julia and MK
"I'm shocked it took this long for those grandpas to start struggling." Julia laughs.
"When I picked them, I thought they'd be dead by Day 3. Good on them for lasting so long!" MK sarcastically compliments.
Conf end
"Hey, has anyone seen Tammy?" Ella asks.
"She's probably trying to cast a spell to bring Leonard back!" Gerry laughs, causing Pete to join in.
"I'll go look for her." Ella says, standing up to find the LARPer.
Cut to Pink Team
Sky, who isn't doing a run this morning, and Mary are collecting blueberries together. "It's good that we found this bush, now we can sustain ourselves for longer." Mary says.
"Mhm." Sky replies. "You know, I like picking berries with you more than I did with-"
"Dave?" Mary interrupts.
"How did you know?"
"Statistically, if you're going to complain about someone, 95% of the time it's about Dave. The other 5% is about Chris or Sugar." Mary states.
"Oh." Sky responds awkwardly. The pair fall into silence. Sky focuses on the berry bush, trying to pick the berries efficiently. She hears a rustling behind her and turns around, but just sees Mary picking berries. "What was that?"
"I think a squirrel ran through one of the bushes."
Confessional: Mary
"That was no squirrel." Mary says. She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a pink immunity idol. "The idol was in the blueberry bush! This is going to be very beneficial to my game moving forward. I'm not going to tell anyone about it yet, that gives people ammo to use against you."
Conf end
Elsewhere, Scarlett is sitting alone by the lake, enjoying the quiet. This quiet doesn't last for long however, as EmmaRR walks up and joins her. "Hey Scarlett…"
"Greetings Emma, what brings you here?" Scarlett says neutrally, although she's secretly hoping it's an alliance offer.
"So I've been thinking about what you've been telling me the past few days… and you're right, you seem to be a logical thinker like me." Emma states, prompting a Scarlett smile. "Maybe the two of us should work together closely."
"I'd like that, the two smartest girls on the team working together could wreak havoc on this game."
Confessional: Scarlett
"Obviously I'm the smarter one by a mile, and Mary is also smarter than her, but I digress. My plan worked, as they usually do." Scarlett says smugly.
Conf end
Confessional: EmmaRR
"Working with Scarlett could be a risky move, but I looked at the facts. Gwen and Zoey are friends, as are Sammy and Jasmine. Zoey and Sammy have been hanging out more recently, so that could become a four person alliance in the future. With Dave and Sky hating each other, that gives me little room to maneuver. I'll need to work with Scarlett, Izzy, and probably Mary." she says, though she doesn't know about Mary and Gwen's duo.
Conf end
In the main camp, Jasmine, Dave, Izzy, Zoey, Gwen, and Sammy are all doing various tasks. Gwen and Sammy are working on starting a fire and begin to make conversation. "What did you think about that last challenge?" Sammy asks.
"It was interesting… I got to shove Blaineley down, that was fun to do." Gwen laughs.
"I saw that! You stopped Amy from stealing someone else's sandbag, good job." Sammy compliments.
"Thanks." Gwen replies.
"Sorry if this is too much to ask about, but why did you help Courtney and Scott? Aren't you and Courtney not on good terms…" Sammy hesitantly questions.
"I didn't have a real reason, it just didn't seem right to let Amy take their bag." Gwen shrugs.
"You didn't have a reason? You weren't trying to make amends?" Sammy presses.
"Meh." Gwen says. "I'm not against reconciling with Courtney, but I'm not going out of my way to do it. If it happens, it will happen. I'm not getting hung up on the past and thinking too much about trying to fix it, that will just drive you crazy."
In response to Gwen's answer, Sammy seems to be in thought.
Confessional: Sammy
"Being hung up on the past, huh? Come to think of it, I think I've talked to my team about Amy a decent amount despite me not really seeing her in years. I think about the past a lot…"
Conf end
Confessional: Gwen
"It was nice to have a decent moment with Courtney for the first time in years, but I wasn't trying to achieve anything specifically by helping her there." Gwen shrugs nonchalantly.
Conf end
Dave is sitting down around 15 feet away from Gwen and Sammy, just watching the duo talk. He himself is about to be pulled into a conversation as Izzy walks by him. "Hey Dave, I found something!"
"Um… what is it?" he asks, looking at Izzy.
"Mud!" she yells, moving her mud filled hands to be just inches away from Dave's face.
"Ah, get that away from me!" Dave panics while backing away.
"What?" Izzy asks, confused. "It's just mud, it's healthy to have on this planet!"
"He's a germaphobe." Jasmine says, overhearing this conversation.
"Oh, he doesn't like germs… Well, one way to conquer your fear is to face it head on, worked for me and the plane!" Izzy laughs and throws the mud at Dave, getting it all over his shirt, causing him to scream and run away.
"Izzy!" Zoey says sternly, looking irritated at the crazy girl. Izzy ignores her and runs after Dave. Jasmine and Zoey share a look at each other.
"Not to be rude but this team is a bit… crazy." Zoey tells Jasmine worriedly.
"My season was Pahkitew Island, I'm used to it by now." Jasmine chuckles.
Confessional: Dave
"Why would she throw mud at me?" Dave asks, showcasing the mud stain on his shirt to the camera.
Conf end
Confessional: Izzy
"I think I'm making a good impression on my team the past few days!" Izzy laughs.
Conf end
Confessional: Jasmine
"Zoey may find it weird now, but I was on a team with Amy, Rodney, Topher, Max, AND Scarlett. Dealing with colorful personalities is a part of the job in Total Drama!"
Conf end
Confessional: Zoey
"It's been so long since I competed that I forgot how weird this show was." Zoey laughs.
Conf end
Cut to Red Team
Max is lazing around in the camp, not doing anything to help. "EVIL is tired… Leshawna, get EVIL some food!" he says. Leshawna, who is in a conversation with Brick, ignores Max. "YOU LAZY BUM, GET ME SOME FOOD! Minions, tell her-"
"Fool shut the hell up, I'm trying to talk to Brick!" Leshawna says angrily, causing Max to shake. "And who are you referring to when you say minions?"
"Isn't it obvious, my minions-"
"Max, you're just crazy!" Scott says, cutting Max off before he can expose anything. This prompts a gasp from Max.
"How dare you-" Max tries to say before Scott picks him up and walks out of the camp with him.
Confessional: Scott
"I don't really care about my alliance with Max, but if he doesn't shut up he will harm Courtney and I's games."
Conf end
Confessional: Max
"Hm, my minion doesn't seem to know his place…" Max mutters. "EVIL will teach him how to act!"
Conf end
Confessional: Leshawna
"The sad thing is, Max doesn't even crack the top 10 craziest people I've competed with in the reality tv circuit…"
Conf end
Confessional: Brick
"I want Max gone soon, he goes against everything I stand for! There is no loyalty with him."
Conf end
"That guy is so annoying!" Courtney complains.
"Rich coming from you…" Harold mutters.
"Huh-"
"GOSH, I agree Courtney!"
"Did they cast that boy from a mental asylum?" Leshawna asks, getting some chuckles from the others.
"Why would anyone take pride in being evil?" Brick questions.
"He isn't even evil, he's just weird." Devin laughs. "He's like a little kid."
"Yeah kids… they're so annoying and no one should want to have them, right everyone?" Brody says. Everyone goes silent and stares at him awkwardly, causing his shoulders to slump.
"Okay…" Bridgette mutters.
Confessional: Bridgette
"What is he doing?" Bridgette questions, eyes widened.
Conf end
Confessional: Brody
"I'm trying to hint to Geoff and Bridgette that kids in the future may not be the best idea. Who needs kids when you can have parties?"
Conf end
Cut to Purple Team
"Sanders, we have bidded our time for too long!" MacArthur tells her cadet partner by the lake. "It's time to form an alliance!"
"Um… okay." Sanders replies. "Who do you want to ally with?"
MacArthur looks to the other side of the lake, where Cody is sitting and looking down into the water. "He seems easy to manipulate, I'll get him on our side!"
"Alright, he seems nice enough…" Sanders says. "Remember, you need to be friendly to make an alliance! Don't be aggressive and scare him."
"Of course Sanders, I wouldn't hurt a fly!" MacArthur laughs, walking to the other side of the lake to talk to Cody. Halfway across her walk, she begins running full sprint towards him, making Sanders grimace in worry. "HEY CODY!"
"Woah!" Cody yells, falling forwards into the lake in shock. He resurfaces moments later. "What's happening MacArthur?!"
"ALLIANCE. NOW!" MacArthur yells at the top of her lungs, luckily for her only Sanders is in earshot.
"Okay okay!" Cody panics. MacArthur pulls him out of the lake.
"Alright, we will make for a great team!" MacArthur says, patting Cody on the back who looks stunned in response. Sanders facepalms.
Confessional: Sanders
"Of course she didn't listen… and of course it somehow worked."
Conf end
Confessional: MacArthur
"And THAT is how you make friends in this game!"
Conf end
Confessional: Cody
"I- I have an alliance now… I'm not sure how that happened, but I have an ally… that I'm kind of terrified to be around, but still!"
Conf end
Cut to Green Team
The whole Green Team except Nichelle, Shawn, and Scary Girl are sitting in the camp together. "Yeah, I'm trying to convince Dakota to come with me to Vidcon this year!" Sam tells Mike.
"Vidcon isn't really my style…" Dakota replies while rubbing her arm.
"Zoey and I went last year, you could have fun Dakota." Mike says. Josee scoffs, catching the attention of the trio.
"Vidcon?" Josee snarls. "Who cares about the internet, get some real interests that bring actual success."
"Hey, I am a twitch streamer who makes good money online!" Sam argues.
"And does that compare to a gold metal?" Josee smirks, clearly proud of her accomplishments. Before Sam can respond, Scary Girl runs into the camp.
"Hey friends, who wants to play tag?" she asks with a wicked grin. Nobody says anything in response, causing her to frown. "Well I do want to play tag, so we ARE doing it! I'll be it!"
With that, Scary Girl runs over to where everyone is sitting, causing everyone to scramble and run away. "Follow me, Scary Girl!" Miles yells in a surprising move.
"I knew you'd want to play eventually!" Scary Girls claps, now chasing after the vegan. Miles is running in a specific pattern, turning very frequently. Right when Scary Girl is about to catch her, Miles jumps over something. Scary Girl however doesn't, and is hoisted up in a net that's attached to a tree.
"Oh no, how did that happen?" Miles says with a worried face. Scary Girl frowns at the next she's trapped in.
"Don't worry, I can get out!" Scary Girls smiles. She uses her nails to cut through the rope, but that causes her to plummet face first into the ground, knocking her out for the time being.
"That isn't what I had in mind with the trap, but I guess that works too." Miles laughs.
Confessional: Miles
"I don't condone violence… but she technically did that to herself by cutting herself down in an unsafe manner, right?" Miles says uneasily, almost as if she's trying to convince herself not to feel bad.
Conf end
As Miles walks away, Shawn and Nichelle walk towards her. "Woah, did you make that trap?" Shawn asks, impressed.
"Uh yes… I did that to protect myself in case she acted up again…" Miles says.
"Eh don't feel bad, she's insane." Nichelle replies. Miles gives a nod before the trio part ways as Miles resumes walking off. Nichelle turns to Shawn. "Where did she even get that net?"
"Don't know." Shawn shrugs. "But we should ask her where she got it, we could capture a deer or something with a trap like hers."
"I like your thinking, a big animal will keep us fed for longer." Nichelle smirks. "She might not like that she accidentally inspired an idea to kill more animals though."
"She wasn't upset about the squirrels we've killed, she won't be upset about this."
"Fair."
Confessional: Shawn
"If Miles wasn't a vegan, she'd make a very good hunter!"
Conf end
Confessional: Nichelle
"Someone got one up on Scary Girl, consider me impressed."
Conf end
Confessional: Mike
Mike is seen panting in the confessional. "Has Scary Girl stopped chasing everyone?"
Conf end
Confessional: Josee
"I meant what I said to Sam. People who make a living sitting inside are pathetic!"
Conf end
Confessional: Sam
"I don't like what Josee said, us gamers and online content creators have a place!"
Conf end
Confessional: Alejandro
"It's admittedly unwise of Josee to make Sam her enemy, but that's perfect for me. I was that alliance's #1 target. If she shifts that target to herself, that will make me safe.
Conf end
Confessional: Scary Girl
Scary Girl is holding her head and begins laughing. "That was fun, I'd love to do that again sometime!"
Conf end
Cut to Gray Team
Heather is stalking a squirrel in the woods while holding the sharp stick that Axel made for her. The squirrel is in place, biting a nut that Heather left on the ground. While it's distracted, she impales the squirrel with the stick. "Oh fuck…" she mutters, hearing the noise it makes while dying and seeing the blood. She turns away with a nauseated look on her face, but there's a sense of pride she carries.
…
Axel, a bit further away, is also hunting for animals. She notices a chicken walking around and makes a confused face at seeing one, but it doesn't deter her from getting closer. The chicken doesn't notice her as Axel is stealthy. She raises her stick, then…
…
"Hey Axel!" Ripper says, startling the chicken and causing it to run off.
"Dammit Ripper, I nearly bagged us some chicken!" Axel frowns, giving an annoyed look at Ripper.
"Speaking of food… you remind me of a tasty burger. When I see you, I just want a taste!" Ripper says while eyeing Axel.
…
"What the fuck dude?" Axel yells. "Get out of here!"
Ripper frowns. "But I-"
"GO."
Ripper didn't need to be told again, and he ran away. As Axel is taking deep breaths, Heather walks up to her. "I killed my first animal!" Heather says. She notices that Axel is upset and backs away. "Oh… I can show you later."
"No it's cool, I want to see what you got. Ripper prevented me from killing the chicken.'
"Urgh, I really could've gone for chicken!"
Confessional: Ripper
"I don't understand… I thought Axel would be all over me again!"
Conf end
Confessional: Axel
"What the hell was that? We agreed that we would stay friends, now all of a sudden he is being flirty!"
Conf end
Confessional: Heather
"Killing that squirrel was gross, but I'm proud of myself for being able to do it. I might keep that corpse and put it in Ripper's face for robbing us of eating that chicken." Heather says spitefully.
Conf end
Chase, Blaineley, Jacques, and Sugar are sitting in the camp in silence, no one particularly in a talking mood.
…
"Chase!" Ripper yells as he runs into the camp, getting everyone's attention. "I tried to flirt with Axel and she got mad at me, what do I do?"
"Oh…" Chase mutters. "I think the right thing to do is keep trying until she flirts back with you, worked for me!"
"Ok… I'll think of a new line to try!" Ripper says as he runs off. Blaineley snickers.
"What's so funny?" Chase questions.
"No amount of smooth talking could make up for how ugly he is." Blaineley laughs. "No one would want to date him, he isn't irresistible like moi!"
That comment caused Jacques and Sugar to start laughing. "What's so funny?"
"Girl, you're more full of shit than the pig pens at my family's farm!" Sugar laughs, prompting a gasp from Blaineley.
"How dare you!"
"She isn't wrong." Chase says. "Grandmas like you aren't irresistible."
"I AM NOT OLD!" Blaineley bursts out. "I AM STILL YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL."
The trio laughs even louder, causing Blaineley to storm off. After they stop laughing, Chase pipes up. "I need to use the bathroom, I'll be right back." he says, walking off.
Confessional: Chase
"How delusional is that lady, she hasn't done anything relevant since before I was born!"
Conf end
Confessional: Blaineley
"I'll show these brats!"
Conf end
Sugar and Jacques sit in silence for a bit before Sugar breaks the ice. "Alright boy, I have to ask ya something!"
"What is it?" Jacques asks hesitantly, unsure of what Sugar's strange mind is up to.
"We are the only two people on this team to not be very close to anyone else!" Sugar says.
"So what are you saying?' Jacques questions.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK I'M ASKING YA DING DONG?" Sugar yells, startling Jacques. "Obviously I'm saying we should pair up, whaddya say?"
"Um… sure?"
Confessional: Sugar
"Sugar ain't stupid, I notice everyone being friendly without me! Luckily, Jacques is in the same boat, so I'll work with that ballerina for now!"
Conf end
Confessional: Jacques
Jacques groans. "It's unfortunate, but she is right. She's my best option for an ally. SCREW YOU JOSEE, YOU SHOULD'VE PICKED ME… don't tell her I said that please."
Conf end
Elsewhere, Amy and Duncan are looking around the forest for idols while talking. "Ugh, why is this so hard to find?" Amy groans, searching under rocks but not seeing an idol.
"That's the point darling." Duncan responds sarcastically. Amy gives a slight laugh at this quip. They search in silence for a few moments before Amy begins talking again.
"I can't believe Gwen stopped Blaineley and I from taking Courtney's sandbag." Amy complains. "Do you think that those two are jealous of me being with you, so they're working together out of spite?"
"No." Duncan replies nonchalantly.
"Well I think they are." Amy responds with an annoyed look. "Maybe we can target one of their teams in the next challenge."
"Why would we do that, there's no point to it." Duncan says, mirroring Amy's annoyed look. Amy just raises an eyebrow while continuing to search.
Confessional: Amy
"Why wouldn't he want to target them? I always like making my exes miserable."
Conf end
Confessional: Duncan
Duncan sighs. "I've said this before, but I don't want to reignite my past with Courtney and Gwen, I've moved on. If Amy starts targeting them, I'll get really annoyed."
Conf end
Cut to Lime Team
The Lime Team is sitting around in their camp together, basking in their luxuries that they won in the previous challenge. Ellody and Sierra are lounging in some of the chairs, while Stephanie and Ryan are enjoying the sleeping bags.
"This camp gets more and more comfortable by the day!" Stephanie says.
"True that, the Lightning is a master team picker!" Lightning brags.
"Yeah yeah…" Jo mumbles. "I feel like we're unstoppable-"
In response to that, Sierra screams from her chair, startling the whole team, Ellody specifically as she was right next to her.
"STOP YELLING!" Eva yells angrily. She realizes the hypocrisy and mumbles an apology moments later.
"Why did you attempt to burst our eardrums?" Jo asks.
"We can't keep talking about how good our team is, we will surely get our karma and we will lose the next challenge!" Sierra warns, looking nervous.
"Sha-please, I brag all the time and continue to win things back home." Lightning dismisses.
"Yeah, don't get superstitious." Stephanie adds.
"We probably should listen to her." Ellody inputs. "She knows her stuff about Total Drama, she knows the patterns of this game!"
"If Ellody thinks we should listen to Sierra, I do too!" Rodney says. Ellody rolls her eyes unbeknownst to Rodney.
"Even if it's just being superstitious, we should probably not get arrogant." Ryan states. "Underestimating the competition could make us stop trying as hard."
"I guess you may be right…" Stephanie admits. The team falls into silence for a bit, then resumes casual conversation with each other. Sierra leans over to whisper to Ellody.
"Thanks for agreeing with me!" Sierra squeals.
"It's nothing." Ellody responds.
Confessional: Sierra
"Wow, Ellody is super nice!" Sierra says. "You wouldn't know that from watching Ridonculous Race, I have many lore updates to make to my blog once this season wraps up!"
Conf end
Confessional: Ellody
"Weirdly enough, I have talked to Sierra the most on this team. She can act a bit odd, but I'm sure people view me as odd too. We might make for a good team…"
Conf end
Cut to Cyan Team
Tom, Jen, and Anne Maria are sitting down together in camp with Justin and Trent sitting nearby. "Omg have you seen Alejandro in some of these challenges?" Jen asks. "He has been looking fantastic recently!"
"Of course I've noticed!" Anne Maria replies. "People like him and Caleb make the challenges less boring, it's the only time we can see some eye candy in the day because none of the guys here are hot!"
"Hey…" Tom replies, sounding hurt.
"Oop. Am I wrong about the others? Trent and Topher are fine at best and Justin is so yesterday's news." Anne Maria explains. She should've been quieter though, as Justin overhears this and walks over.
"Did you just say what I thought you said?" Justin asks disapprovingly.
"Probably. Now scram, we're trying to talk!" Anne Maria says, gesturing to him to leave with her hand.
"No, I'm not going to let the woman who is made out of silicone insult me on my looks!" Justin snaps, causing a gasp from the trio.
"Oh hell no boy, you crossed the line!" Anne Maria booms, standing up while gearing up to punch Justin. Trent intervenes and blocks her path.
"Everyone, calm down!"
"Anne Maria is all natural baby, let me kick his ass!" Anne Maria shouts. Justin flips her off, just making her more angry.
Confessional: Tom and Jen
"Justin is so sensitive." Jen says. "His jaw gives sideways football, Anne is right about him."
The latter remark gets a laugh out of Tom.
Conf end
Confessional: Justin
"It was nice to give her a taste of her own medicine!"
Conf end
Confessional: Anne Maria
"I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A PLASTIC SURGEON!"

Elsewhere, Kelly and Taylor are getting more firewood. More specifically, Taylor is standing around watching her mother get the wood. "Mom, I want an idol. Can you find it and give it to me?" Taylor asks.
"Taylor, I have to get the firewood back to camp-"
"NOW." Taylor demands. Kelly sighs and drops the wood. "I guess I can check…"
As Kelly begins looking in the bushes, Staci walks in. "Wow, what's going on here?"
"Looking for the idol." Kelly replies, causing Taylor to pout.
"You weren't supposed to tell her that mom, can't you do anything right?" Taylor questions.
"What's wrong with telling me, I can keep a secret! My great great great great great cousin Michael invented secrets after all, before him people would just leak any information they had, the past generations were traumatized with trust issues!"
…
"I don't give a fuck you cow, go away!" Taylor demands.
"No."
…
"Mom, make her leave!"
"I can't just do that…" Kelly replies.
"Well true, you're not strong enough to carry 600 pounds out of here…" Taylor mutters before speaking louder. "Urgh, you should've gotten a better personal trainer!"
With that, Taylor storms off. Staci just looks at Kelly. "See, I told you that's how things are if you don't discipline your child properly! Taylor is just like my great great aunt Lucy!"
Confessional: Taylor
"My life is so hard!" Taylor sobs. "My mom is so underwhelming!"
Conf end
Confessional: Staci
"Haha, Taylor sucks!" Staci laughs.
Conf end
Confessional: Kelly
"Is… is Staci right? That sounds impossible, but maybe she is?" Kelly frowns, reflecting in the privacy of her confessional.

Cut to Orange Team
Millie and DJ are walking together, trying to find food. "Dawn and Ezekiel are probably having better luck than us at finding berries…" Millie mutters. "I hope we can find something soon."
"Same, I'm starving out here! I miss mama's cooking…" DJ says, memories of home flooding back. Millie doesn't respond, instead she has a sad look plastered onto her face that DJ is quick to notice. "What's wrong Millie?"
"Huh?"
"You seem down, what's wrong?"
Millie sighs before responding. "It's about Priya."
"What about her?"
"Remember what Dawn said a few days ago?"
DJ takes a moment to rack his brain before the memory comes back. "Oh right, about her feeling controlled?"
"Yeah… I tried talking to her about it, but she blew me off right away to go exercise with Caleb."
"Well, you can't force someone who isn't ready to talk to speak to you." DJ responds.
"But this isn't something I feel like she will ever talk about on her own." Millie replies. "This forcing herself to be on reality tv thing has literally been her whole life, she knows nothing but competing."
DJ frowns. "You're right, didn't her parents force her to do the show to begin with?"
"Yeah…" Millie responds. The duo share a frown.
Confessional: DJ
"Forgive me for speaking negatively about someone's family, but my mama would never train me to go into danger willingly! When I first signed up for season 1, she only let me on the show because they lied in the advertising that it was safe."
Conf end
Confessional: Millie
"Am I being too concerned about this? The stuff with Priya's parents has been going on for years with Priya never going against them, maybe I should let it go… but would that make me a bad friend to just let her be unhappy?"
Conf end
Elsewhere, Katie and Sadie are talking in the camp. Their conversation isn't long lived however, as Priya walks up to them. "Mind explaining yourself Sadie?"
"EEK, for what?"
Priya facepalms. "You put a sandbag on my bar last challenge… that is literally sabotaging the team, why did you do that?"
"You totally like deserved it!" Sadie says. "You're a jealous meanie!"
"I- THAT IS NOT A JUSTIFICATION FOR SABOTAGING THE TEAM!" Priya yells, her voice sounding disbelieved. "And I'm not a jealous person either!"
With that, Priya storms off, not wanting to talk to the annoying duo anymore. As she exits the camp, she bumps into Laurie. "I heard what you said." the vegan comments. "If you're on board, we can 100% take out Sadie if we lose."
"Of course I'm on board!" Priya smiles, happy to find another Sadie hater.
Confessional: Katie and Sadie
"EEK Priya is such a baby, I only put 5 pounds on her bar! You have to be weak to not be able to carry 5 pounds!" Sadie says.
"Didn't you struggle to lift-"
"Don't bring that up Katie!"
"EEK!"
"EEK!"
Conf end
Confessional: Priya
"My parents would kill me if I didn't put 100% effort into each challenge, I can't believe Sadie's parents didn't discipline her like mine did!"
Conf end
Confessional: Laurie
"Thank goodness, Priya also sees the light that Sadie sucks, we need to send her home!"

Cut to Blue Team
Mickey is seen on the ground, talking to himself. "Alright Mickey… it is time to do push ups… sure, you have never been able to successfully complete one before, but you can do it this time!" he hypes himself up. He begins to attempt a push up, but his arms give out instantly. "Dang it, this is difficult after a week of barely eating…"
Dwayne walks up to Mickey, noticing him on the ground. "Do you need help to get back to camp? You seem exhausted."
"No, I need to do a push up!" Mickey says. Dwayne raises an eyebrow.
"That's easy kid, just do one and then I can help you."
Mickey attempts another pushup, and again he falls. Dwayne just facepalms watching this.
Confessional: Dwayne
"He can't jump over a rock or do a pushup… what good is he?"
Conf end
Confessional: Mickey
"Once I'm able to do a push up, Ella is going to be so proud of my progress!"
Conf end
We cut to see that Tammy is sitting by herself in a secluded area of the forest. "Oh there you are!" a voice offscreen says, revealing itself to be Ella as she walks in and sits next to her. "None of us have seen you since Leonard was eliminated! Are you doing okay?"
Tammy sighs. "I've been better."
"What's wrong?"
"I've realized a lot about myself over the past week…" Tammy mutters. Ella gives a look of concern.
"It doesn't sound positive from your tone of voice… what did you realize?" Ella questions.
"I have a question… Do you believe in magic?" Tammy asks, not answering the question quite yet.
"I'll admit I did during Pahkitew Island which is why I listened to Leonard's ideas… watching the season and seeing everyone's confessionals made me not believe it anymore. Not that I judge you because you believe in magic-" Ella says before being cut off.
"No, you should've judged me…" Tammy sighs. "I can't believe that I have been believing in something that wasn't real for so many years."
Ella's eyes widened, not expecting to hear that from the LARPer. "You… you don't believe in magic anymore?"
"I don't. Something clicked for me in the first few days of the game, I'm not sure what it was. Maybe it was the map disaster, but probably when I tried using a forcefield in the first challenge. But I realized that everything I've been basing my life off of for a decade was built off of nothing but pointless rebelling." Tammy replies.
"What do you mean?" Ella asks.
"Well… we don't know each other too well, so I'm not sure if I should vent…"
"It's okay, I don't mind. I'm a good listener!" Ella assures.
"Alright then… so when I was younger, I was someone with a very active imagination. I would play with all the other kids in the neighborhood and we would roleplay a lot of fantasy stories, or we would act like our favorite video game characters." Tammy explains. "I never actually believed in what I was doing, but my parents disapproved of it anyways. I would constantly be told that playing games and using my imagination was silly and a waste of time, which got really tiring to hear. After a while, I just rebelled and created this whole… magical viking girl persona to spite them, which I got so deep into that I couldn't separate fiction and reality…"
"Wow I… I don't know what to say." Ella replies while rubbing her arm, taking in all the information Tammy told her.
"It's fine... I'm glad that I'm finally realizing this. Ridonculous Race couldn't snap me out of my delusions, but I'm glad this season did." Tammy says, a small smile creeping up on her face. "I'm an adult now, I need to leave this behind."
Tammy takes off her viking helmet, but Ella puts a hand on her arm. "It's good that you know magic isn't real anymore, but you don't have to change who you are fundamentally." Ella says.
Tammy gives a confused look. "What do you mean?"
"I'm not a LARPer, but the concept of it is pretty cool! You shouldn't lose your imagination or anything, you just need to stay grounded in reality and be able to separate facts from fiction. As long as you can do that, you can be who you are with no worries!" Ella assures.
"You really think so?"
"I know so. I express myself with songs and things like that on the go, I use my imagination all the time and have a lot of fun!"
"Thanks Ella." Tammy smiles.
Confessional: Ella
"I didn't know that Tammy was just rebelling!" Ella says with a shocked look. "I'm glad I could be someone for her to talk to."
Conf end
Confessional: Tammy
"It was nice to finally tell someone all that… I can finally live in reality again! No more magic, no more spells. I'm just going to try and do my best to win this game as Tammy, not a magical viking!"
Conf end
Day 8
We cut to Chris standing in a mostly empty building, with only bleachers and the team mats inside
The Red, Purple, Green, Pink, Orange, Gray, Lime, and Cyan teams all walk into the building and stand on their team mats. "Alright teams, getting your first look at the new Blue Team, Leonard voted out at the last elimination."
Very few people looked surprised.
Confessional: Harold
"Gosh, Leonard flopped as a captain!"
Conf end
Confessional: Dakota
"Oh, I thought team captains would be bulletproof or whatevs…"

"As someone who was on a team with Leonard before… wise decision Blue Team."

After Blue Team is settled in, Yellow Team joins the party. "Getting your first look at the new Yellow Team. Lorenzo was voted out at the last elimination!"
Priya smirks at the man who insulted her being eliminated, but others are not so happy.
"It should've been Bowie or Kitty…" Julia mutters.
"WHAT?" Chet yells upon seeing his step brother not in the game. "WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS?"
No one on the Yellow Team dignifies him with a response.
Confessional: Chet
"I will find out who caused his elimination on that team and make them pay!" Chet vows.
Conf end
Confessional: Caleb
"After what Lorenzo said about Priya, good riddance."
Conf end
Confessional: Devin
"I was worried that Carrie was going to be eliminated, good thing there was nothing to worry about!" Devin laughs.
Conf end
Confessional: Carrie
"We obviously weren't going to tell Chet that the vote was unanimous, that would just make him more angry."
Conf end
"Ok… it is time for your next challenge. This is an easy one… Simon Says!" Chris says. The cast just stares at him with blank faces.
Confessional: Ryan
"This show must've gotten its budget sliced, that's the best they could come up with?"

"I'm so excited, I love Simon Says! I never have won it before because I always fall for the obvious traps, but I'll win this time!" Wayne exclaims.

"This isn't physical, I could prove myself here!"
Conf end
"Why are we playing a children's game?" MK questions. "Did you finally run out of ideas?"
"Simon Says is a fun game!" Wayne defends, just getting an eye roll from MK.
"You should be happy we are doing a children's game, it's your best chance of winning a challenge!" Chris retorts to MK, getting some laughs from the other teams.
"Well… I can't say you're wrong…" MK mutters.
"Alright, everyone should know the rules of this game. You must do what Simon Says, the first two teams to lose every member are up for elimination. Now let's get started."

"Simon Says jump."
Everyone jumps.
"Damn, I thought at least one person wouldn't do it knowing this group's intelligence."
"Hey!"
"I'm not wrong." Chris laughs. "Simon Says tap your right foot."
Everybody except Zee taps their right foot, as Zee taps his left one.
"Zee, you did the wrong foot, you're out!"
"I- how did you fail that?" Cody questions.
"I didn't hear him specify which foot, I zoned out dude…" Zee apologizes.
…
"Jump."
Geoff, Brody, Max, Dwayne, Owen, Ripper, and Wayne fall for this.
"Everyone who jumped, you're out!"
"I FELL FOR THAT AGAIN!" Wayne cries, once again losing Simon Says.
"You fool!" Max rages. "I jumped when instructed, don't you know the rules?"
"I do. Simon didn't tell you to jump, I did, so you're out." Chris informs. Max growls but takes his seat on the bleachers.

"Simon Says jump."
Everyone jumps, but Rock falls down instantly after jumping. "Ow, my ankle!" he groans, clutching to his wounded foot.
"Simon Says do a jumping jack."
Everyone but Rock, who is still on the ground, does a jumping jack.
"Rock, you're out!"
"I wasn't even standing up!" Rock complains.
"Too bad, you should've thought of that before getting hurt." Chris glares. Zee helps Rock to the bleachers.
…
"Simon Says do a Fortnite dance."
"What the fu-"
"10 seconds, go!"
Everyone breaks into a Fortnite dance, to the displeasure of most of the cast. Chris bursts out laughing at them, the 85 or so remaining in the challenge looking ridiculous. Some like Sam and Emma23 are really into it.
Confessional: Eva
"That was the dumbest thing I've done in my life."

Confessional: Jo
"If anyone ever shares that Fortnite dancing footage online when this episode airs, I will personally come to their house."
Conf end
Confessional: Emma23
"I slayed that dance!"
Conf end
"Simon Says DON'T Fortnite dance."
Most of the cast didn't need to be told twice, as they stopped instantly. Sam and Emma23 are too into the dancing to notice, sealing their fate.
"Sam, Emma23, you're both out."
"Aw…" Sam groans. The duo walk to the bleachers.
"Simon Says do 3 push ups."
Most of the cast is able to do this when asked. Gerry, Pete, Mickey, and Sadie can't do it however and are out of the challenge.
"EEK my arms hurt…" Sadie whines.
"Same!" Mickey groans.
"My old bones hurt…"
"Well you're all out, hit the bleachers!"

Chris throws a bunch of small whiteboards and markers to everyone. "Simon Says write the answers to 5 x 15."
Everyone answers 75 with the exception of Scott, Tyler, Lindsay, MacArthur, Chet, Katie, Ezekiel, Raj, Sugar, Lightning, and Justin.
"If you didn't answer 75, you're out."
"WHAT?" MacArthur yells in rage, slamming her whiteboard on the ground.
"What! I'm right, check again Chris!" Sugar says, showing her whiteboard. It has 515.
"Incorrect, head to the bleachers."
"How did you get that wrong Justin…" Anne Maria groans.
"Math is for ugly people."
"That should be your forte then!"
Before Justin can respond, Chris glares at him to get on the bleachers.

"That challenge wasn't fair, we should be doing races, not math!"

Chef walks in the building and hands everyone a small bottle, though they can't see what drink is inside it. "Cockroach blend!"
"Simon Says drink that." Chris says.
Everyone gags. "If y'all don't want it, I can drink it!" Owen offers, though everyone ignores him.
"You have 30 seconds, go!"
"No way I'm drinking that!" Laurie tells her team. "I can't eat another animal…"
"I understand." Dawn says. "I won't do it either."
"I've drank cockroach blends for challenges on my Youtube before, this should be easy!" Chase says before chugging.
"Well I'm too beautiful to do this." Amy says.
"Same!" Blaineley adds.
Damien tries to start drinking his, but he throws up after one sip, causing a chain reaction to where Beth and Cody do the same thing.
…
30 seconds have fully passed.
Bridgette and Brick were too disgusted on Red Team to drink the full blend. Beth, Cody, and Damien on Purple vomited instead of drinking. MK couldn't finish hers in time while Ella refused to even drink. Miles didn't want to drink an animal. Dave was too disgusted for Pink, as were Bowie and Carrie for Yellow, same story for Amy and Blaineley on Gray. Laurie and Dawn wouldn't drink animals as they said. Taylor, Jen, Tom, Anne Maria, and Topher didn't even attempt to drink on Cyan. Everyone remaining on Lime completed the challenge.

"I wasn't going to compromise my morals for a challenge." Dawn shrugs.

"Well that knocked out a ton of people at once! Only Sanders remains for Purple Team, Simon Says clap."
Everyone claps. As more generic rounds of Simon Says continue, Topher scoots over on the bleachers. "Hey Zee."
"What's up?" Zee responds.
"I have to tell you something important…"
"What is it?"
"So you know how I'm Lindsay's assistant?" Topher questions.
"No."
…
Topher groans. "Well I'm Lindsay's assistant, so I'm close with her, Tyler, and Beth. I talked to Beth and she said some interesting things that you might want to hear."
"Oh okay, I love interesting things, tell me what she said!"
"Well she said that she convinced the other two to take out Damien and MacArthur if you lose because they're big threats." Topher informs.
"What? Damien is cool though…" Zee says, now being fully invested in the conversation.
"I know, that's why I felt the need to tell you. Don't tell anyone I told you though." Topher says before scooting away.
Confessional: Topher
Topher begins laughing. "Beth didn't say anything about who she wants to vote out to me, but Zee doesn't know that. I told him those things because I know he can't keep his mouth shut. If he tells either Damien or MacArthur, then they'll lead a campaign against Beth."

Dakota, Julia, and Kelly clap in response to this.
"You three are out."
"What?" Dakota questions.
"I said Simone, not Simon!"
"Oh fuck…" Julia mutters to herself, annoyed at her careless mistake. "Now it's down to Tammy, we're screwed…"
"You got this Tammy!" Ella cheers from the bleachers.
"Don't lose Trent!" Justin says.
"Keep up the good work Sanders!" MacArthur encourages.
"Simon Says jump."
Everyone jumps.

"Ugh the other people's stupidity must have rubbed off on me, how did I fall for the Simone trick? Of all challenges, we should've won this one as it wasn't physical at all! As for the vote, I originally was wanting Tammy, but she actually performed decently today. The dinosaurs are breaking down and Mickey hasn't shown any challenge potential. Decisions, decisions…"

Cut to Blue Team
The team all walks back into the camp together. "Well… back to elimination for us." MK grumbles.
"We need to find a way to start winning challenges!" Dwayne states. "We need to get rid of a challenge liability."
As he says this, he turns to Mickey. Mickey shrinks, but Ella pipes up. "No offense Dwayne, but you were the first one out of the challenge for our team."
Dwayne's eyes widen as MK stifles a laugh, shocked that Ella would say that.
"Ok so I didn't do great today, but I was helpful in other challenges, and I'm not breaking down in the conditions!" Dwayne says. He turns to the Tennis Rivals, who glare at the callout. "And I'll just say, my mistake wasn't as bad as being unable to do three pushups."
"You try doing all those pushups when you're as old and broken down as us!" Gerry defends.
"If you're so old and broken down, then isn't that a problem for future challenges?" Tammy inputs. Gerry has no response to this.
Confessional: MK
"It feels weird to be seen as a useful team member, I'd probably be one of the worst on any other team. Anyways, there are plenty of options on the table tonight. This team is full of idiots who are just letting Julia and I control every vote, so whoever goes is interchangeable."
Conf end
A 15 minute time skip occurs, and we see Tammy and Ella talking alone. "Are you mad that I blew the challenge for us?" Tammy asks.
"No, you did the best on our team!" Ella tells her, causing Tammy to smile. "That was your best performance yet, be proud of yourself."
"Thanks Ella… now for the vote, who are you thinking?"
"Dwayne isn't super nice to Mickey…" Ella says.
"True, but I think he's more helpful than Mickey or The Tennis Rivals." Tammy replies.
"I won't vote for Mickey." Ella responds quickly. "You can if you need to, but he's my friend and I won't do it. If Dwayne is too helpful, I'll vote for Pete I guess."
…
We cut to Julia, MK, and Dwayne talking by the lake, getting some water.
"So, you called out multiple people." Julia says to Dwayne. "Who do you want gone?"
"Mickey, he couldn't even do 1 pushup yesterday!" Dwayne replies.
"Makes sense, he hasn't done well in any challenge." MK replies. After she said this, Tammy walks in and joins the conversation.
"Hey guys." Tammy greets. "Who are y'all voting for?"
"We are thinking of going for Mickey." Dwayne says. Tammy puts a hand to her chin, remembering what Ella said.
"Would you consider other options, or are you 100% locked in on Mickey?"
…
Ella and Mickey are talking in the camp. "Ella, I'm really nervous that it could be me tonight!" he says.
"I think you'll be getting votes…" Ella frowns.
"Ella if I go tonight… thanks for supporting me throughout this whole game." Mickey says. The duo share a hug.
Confessional: Mickey
"I hope that The Tennis Rivals struggling in the conditions will save me, I can't go yet! Jay wanted me to win…
Conf end
Cut to Purple Team
The whole team walks in the camp together except for Rock, who is hobbling in behind the rest of them. That doesn't go unnoticed by the team.
"Uh, are you okay man?" Cody questions.
"Yup, I just have something in my boot!" Rock plays off. "I'll go get it out!"
Rock hobbles away from the team.
"He may have injured his ankle…" Beth says with concern.
"May have? It's clearly hurting." Damien corrects. "I wonder if jumping in those boots caused him to hurt himself."
"I didn't get hurt jumping in my boots, I'm so good at doing stuff in them!" Lindsay smiles, though what she's saying is clearly irrelevant to the conversation.
"If he's hurting, then maybe we should just vote him out." Sanders says.
Confessional: Beth
"I feel so bad for Rock!" Beth frowns. "Getting hurt in a game like this sucks!"
Conf end
Confessional: Lindsay
"Maybe Rock needs a better pair of boots…" Lindsay ponders.

After a short time lapse, we cut to Damien and Zee walking together in the forest. "Tough break for Rock… haha." Zee says, laughing at his own accidental joke.
"At least there isn't any stress in the vote tonight, we don't have to think about getting betrayed." Damien comments. This makes Zee freeze. "Uh what's wrong?"
"Crap, I forgot something! Beth was trying to blindside you!" Zee states.
…
"WHAT?" Damien yells, stunned by what he heard.
"Beth convinced Tyler and Lindsay to want to blindside you or MacArthur for being a threat, I don't want you to leave so soon!" Zee panics, just making Damien mirror his emotions.
"Oh god oh god, when did you learn about this?" Damien asks, now biting his nails.
"Today at the challenge."
"I gotta save myself!" Damien yells, running away.
Confessional: Damien
"I didn't think I would have to be concerned about leaving today, but evidently I was wrong!" Damien panics. "If Beth is trying to get rid of me, I have to counter!"
Conf end
We cut to MacArthur, Sanders, and Cody standing together. "Alright, we have to make a decision!" MacArthur says.
"Why?" Cody asks. "Isn't the vote obvious?"
"Yeah, let's not rock the boat." Sanders adds.
"Voting Rock would be the easy choice, let's make a big swing for a major player!" MacArthur says.
"That would be dumb, we don't need someone with an injured ankle in challenges, he will just drag us down!" Sanders argues.
"Yeah MacArthur, who would you even want out anyways?" Cody questions.
"I want-"
"GUYS!" Damien yells, running into the conversation. "We can't vote for Rock tonight!"
"Huh?" Sanders asks, confused.
"Beth is trying to get me or MacArthur out, she convinced Tyler and Lindsay to join her!" Damien informs, getting gasps from the trio.
"WHAT?" MacArthur rages, punching her fist into her palm. "I knew she was trouble! Sanders, Cody, we aren't voting for Rock tonight!"
"Um…" Sanders mutters. "If we are all aware of what she's trying to do, can't we get rid of Rock now and then take Beth out next? 3 out of 9 isn't enough for them to have a majority."
"I don't care, she needs to pay NOW!" MacArthur booms.
Confessional: MacArthur
"So, I'm not the only one on this team who is willing to play hard. Well Beth, if you want to mess with me, then you are going DOWN!"
Conf end
Confessional: Sanders
"Something seems off… Beth isn't the type of person who would target someone like that for no reason."
Conf end
Confessional: Cody
"I know Beth pretty well outside of the game, I'm not sure if I want to vote her off…"
Conf end
We cut to Beth, Lindsay, and Tyler all relaxing at camp. "Well since this vote is obvious, we can relax!" Lindsay smiles, getting a tan instead of strategizing.
…
We cut to Rock, who has taken his boot off and is looking dejected. Chet walks up to him and sits down. "Hey Rock… you aren't okay, right?"
Rock sighs. "Yeah, I tried to play it off…" he says to his friend.
"I really don't want you to go right after Lorenzo did." Chet frowns. "But the team agreed to send you home because you're hurt."
Rock looks at the ground and wipes his eyes, clearly upset. "I hurt my ankle just simply jumping and now it's costing me 10 million dollars…"
The duo sit in silence, peace filling the air slowly as Rock tries to accept his fate.
…
"GUYS WE NEED TO TALK!" Damien yells, startling them.
...
Confessional: Damien
"I hope my campaign worked, you can't blindside me that easily Beth!"
Conf end
Cut to Blue Team at the campfire ceremony
Chris laughs at the Blue Team. "Hello again guys! Four challenges in and you've lost 3 of them, easily the worst team so far. Who knows though, maybe this vote will turn it around. Write the name of who you want gone, and put it in the urn. Now, get voting!"
Voting
Mickey crosses his fingers while holding a vote for Pete.
"There is no way I am voting for my friend, so sorry Pete." Ella says.
"While Dwayne insulted us, you're much weaker. Sorry kid, hahaha!" Pete laughs while voting Mickey.
Gerry flashes his Mickey vote without a word.
A quick cut of Tammy, Dwayne, Julia, and MK voting is shown 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… Mickey."
Mickey sighs.
"2nd vote… Mickey."
Ella and Mickey frown.
"3rd vote… Pete."
Pete raises an eyebrow.
"4th vote… Pete. 2 votes Pete, 2 votes Mickey."
Pete glares at Mickey.
"5th vote… Mickey."
Mickey gulps.
"6th vote… Mickey. 4 votes Mickey, 2 votes Pete."
Ella shakes her head in disappointment.
"7th person voted out of Total Drama Ultimate… Mickey. That's 5, you're out."
…
Mickey groans in disappointment.
"I'm so sorry Mickey…" Ella frowns.
"It's alright Ella…" Mickey says, giving her a hug. "Like I said, thanks for supporting me even if I couldn't last much longer than Jay did. I tried my best. I'm not bitter towards anyone on this team… other than you Dwayne."
"Hey!" Dwayne says, clearly offended. Mickey walks out to the dock of shame.
Confessional: Julia and MK
"Even though those fossils are beginning to struggle, they're still more helpful in challenges than Mickey." Julia says.
"And Ella has been getting pretty social, best to take out her numbers." MK adds.
Conf end
Confessional: Ella
"Both twins are gone… I guess it's just me left of our original trio… I'll do my best." Ella vows.
Conf end
Blue Team leaves the elimination area, and the Purple Team walks in and sits down
"Hello Purple Team, it is time for your first elimination. Write the name of who you want gone, and put it in the urn. Now, get voting!""
Voting
"I'm sorry Rock, but you're only on one wheel…" Beth apologizes.
"You tried to get me first, this is payback!" Damien says, holding his vote for Beth.
"Justice served!" MacArthur states, voting Beth.
"Please be you and not me…" Rock begs while looking at his Beth parchment.
"Sorry Scissors- or was it Paper- but this is a mercy kill." Lindsay says while voting Rock.
"I'm sorry… but voting Beth out over what seems like nothing isn't smart." Sanders says. "I vote for Rock."
"I don't want to vote for Beth, and I feel bad for Rock, so I'll just throw my vote away." Cody states while holding a vote for Chet.
A quick cut of Zee, Tyler, Chet, and Rock voting is shown before we cut back to Chris.
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… Beth."
Beth raises an eyebrow.
"2nd vote… Rock."
Rock frowns.
"3rd vote… Rock."
Rock's head drops.
"4th vote… Chet."
"WHAT?" Chet yells out, not expecting the vote at all.
"5th vote… Beth. 2 votes Rock, 2 votes Beth, 1 vote Chet…"
"Huh…" Beth mutters to herself, confused about why it isn't a 9-1 vote.
"6th vote… Rock."
Rock groans.
"7th vote… Rock. 4 votes Rock, 2 votes Beth, 1 vote Chet…"
Rock looks worried, knowing that one more vote would end his game.
"8th vote… Beth."
Beth gasps while Tyler and Lindsay look worried.
"9th vote… Beth. We're tied. 4 votes Rock, 4 votes Beth, 1 vote Chet, 1 vote left…"
Everyone looks confused and worried at this split vote.
"8th person voted out of Total Drama Ultimate…"

"Beth. That's 5 votes, it's time for you to go."
Beth, Tyler, and Lindsay all gasp loudly.
"What the…" Tyler mutters.
"WHY ME?" Beth asks, having no clue as to what just happened.
"You don't run around and try to blindside everyone then get away with it!" MacArthur replies bitterly.
"I wasn't doing that, what are you talking about?" Beth asks.
"Yeah, we were talking about fashion, not blindsides!" Lindsay adds.
"I love arguing, but Beth, it's time for you to go."
…
Beth frowns, gives Lindsay and Tyler hugs, then walks out. The camera cuts to her joining Mickey on the dock. Mickey gasps upon seeing her. "Wow, I didn't expect you to be gone so early!"
"Neither did I…" Beth sighs. The boat picks the duo up.
Confessional: Zee
"Huh… no one voted for Damien or MacArthur…"
Conf end
Confessional: Lindsay
Lindsay sobs in the confessional. "Beth, I'll miss you so much! I'll do my best to win that 10 million so I can get even more lip gloss money for us!"
Conf end
Confessional: Chet
"Whoever voted for me better watch their back, I will get my revenge!"
Conf end
Confessional: Damien
"I'm so confused… Zee said that she was trying to blindside me or Mac, but neither of us got votes at all! Maybe he got the wrong information." Damien facepalms. "If Beth really wasn't trying to blindside me, then I'm so sorry… I- I just couldn't risk going out in a bad way again after what happened in the last two seasons"
Conf end
We cut to Chris, who is now at the campfire ceremony alone. "We lost Mickey and Beth, and now just 92 remain. Can the Blue Team turn things around? Will Lime continue their dominance? How will the Purple Team function after such a chaotic vote? Find out on the next episode of Total… Drama… Ultimate!"
Author's Note: 5 episodes are now completed, and 8 contestants are eliminated.
Mickey- I suspect I'll get some pushback to this elimination, my proofreader was devastated, and the reviewers liked his duo with Ella. I'm glad y'all liked him, but he was always going to be a support character. I swapped around Leonard and Mickey's placements though, so we got an extra episode of him over more Leonard.
Beth- Topher won this little rivalry! Our second finalist has bit the dust in a chaotic vote. Beth wasn't a major presence to the story, but I think she filled her narrative purpose well and was ultimately proven right to be suspicious of Topher. Though sadly for her, she doesn't even know it was his fault.
