Author's Notes:

-Sorry this chapter was late. I'm trying to do these chapters about once a month or so. Let's see if I can get two in to make it up to you!

The scene switched to the Ice Dancers headed towards the Don Box.

"There's the Don... Ahh!" She fell face-first into the mud, hearing MacArthur laugh afterward. "Who laughed?"

"I believe you mean, 'Whom Laughed'?" MacArthur retaliated.

Mud was thrown in the officer's face as Josee chuckled at her.

"Alright, that's it!" MacArthur advanced forward.

"MacArthur, wait!" Sanders called out.

But she payed no heed to her partner. Instead of punching her like Sanders thought she would, she held up the boomerang and pointed it at Josee. "I Boomerang you!"

"What?!" Jacques exclaimed.

"They got the boomerang?!" Josee exclaimed at the same time.

MacArthur fiercely glared at them. "Guess no one told you- you mess with the cadets, you get booked."

Josee screamed in anger as MacArthur smirked.

The scene showed MacArthur still smirking in the interview room. Sanders had a content expression on her face.

"Man, who knew revenge could be so sweet?" MacArthur asked.

The scene switched to the Ice Dancers standing in a different cell, with Josee no longer having mud on her face.

"With the Ice Dancers being boomeranged, they are returned to Geelong and placed in the mother of all cells; The Black Hole." The door slammed on their face. Jacques and Josee began searching frantically for a way out and the Rockers were shown tapping the wall of their cell. "For the Ice Dancers and the Rockers, the race for not last begins."

The two looked around their cell, with four boxes, one in each corner of the room.

"Not again!" Josee cried out.

"There has to be something here..." Jacques said.

The scene switched to the Best Friends rowing down the river.

"There's the chill zone." Devin said. "Come on, homie!"

Taking Carrie by the hand, the two ran to the carpet of completion.

"First place to the Best Friends." Don announced. "Congrats!"

"Yeah!" Carrie exclaimed.

"Wahoo!" Devin exclaimed simultaneously.

Don handed them a cellphone. "You've won the phone call home."

Devin took the phone. "I'm gonna call Shelley, cool? Cool." He frowned. "Aw, it keeps going to her voicemail."

"You can keep trying until you reach someone."

"Devin," Carrie blushed. "I really need to tell you something before you talk to her..."

The scene switched to the Stepbrothers.

"Collusive systems activation guidance guiding now." Chet stated.

"Affirmative. You cleared for docking merger alignment proceedings." Lorenzo responded.

"I wonder if Don will let us keep our spaceship."

However, as they docked, they hit the wooden platform, causing the entire ship to crumble and the two to fall in the river.

They screamed in unison and embraced each other. "No!"

The scene switched to them at the Chill Zone, with Lorenzo asking, "Wow! How cool did we just look?"

"So cool!" Chet answered.

"Not really." Don retorted. "But second place..."

"Yeah!" they exclaimed.

The scene switched to the two of them singing in the interview. "Stepbrothers, stepbrothers, we're the stepbrothers! Yeahhhhhhh!"

They high-fived before the scene switched to the Ice Dancers in their cell.

"Alright, it looks like there's a window up there!" Jacques pointed to a trap door way above them.

Josee looked at her partner. "But how do we get there?"

Jacques looked at the boxes in the room. "Maybe we're supposed to stack the boxes- like Tetris!"

The scene switched to all four boxes stacked in a vertical column. Josee climbed up to the top of the box tower and extended her hands to Jacques. He took them and climbed up the tower.

The scene switched to the Sisters running to the Chill Zone, with the Adversity Twins right behind them.

"3rd place!" Don said to the sisters.

"4th!" The twins.

A montage of still shots with each team occurred as more and more players completed the 2nd challenge.

"5th!" Cadets.

"6th!" Father and Son.

"Can I please just tell you..." Carrie began, only to be ignored.

"Come on... Pick up!" Devin pleaded.

"Haters in 7th!" Don announced.

"8th!" The Surfers were shown hugging.

"9th!" The Goths were shown with unemotional expressions.

The scene switched back to Devin, who was still trying to call Shelley.

"Voicemail again!" Devin groaned in frustration.

"You can keep trying, but once the final team checks in..." Don looked at his watch. "time's up."

Devin called again anxiously.

"Is it bad that I hope he runs out of time?" Carrie asked the audience.

The scene switched to the Rockers, still trapped in their cell.

"Aw man, we've tried everything." Rock said. "I hate saying it, but it's over."

"No. There's no way it can be over!"

Spud threw the bed aside and jumped on the ground. "Ahh!"

"Spud!" Rock dived jumped in after him, and landed on his own two feet. "Spud, are you okay?!"

Spud got up from the ground. "I think so!"

"Good! Then we better hurry!" Rock ran off-screen. "We don't have much time!"

The scene switched to a split screen; on the left was Josee reaching from the top of the trapdoor, pulling Jacques up as the right side showed the Rockers running through the sewers. The scene transitioned to Josee pounding nails in a formed plank of word as the Rockers built their raft. The Ice Dancers paddled quickly, being a few steps ahead of the Rockers.

The scene transitioned to Devin waiting at the phone with Don observing from afar.

"Shelley? Oh thanks Ashton." He turned to Don. "Ashton's her tennis instructor, he's just getting her now." He turned his left ear back to the phone. "Shelly, hi! It's me, Devin. I miss you so much. Woah whoo what? No, we never broke up! You're dating who? Ashton?! No, please... don't! Wait!" Shelly hung up on him and Don took the phone. "Wait, I need to call her back!"

"Sorry, one phone call only. So, how's the girlfriend?"

"She dumped me! For her tennis instructor!" He sobbed into Don's shoulder.

"Woah, the tennis instructor?! That never happens!"

Devin continued sobbing.

"Maybe I'll tell him now." Carrie heard Devin sobbing even louder. "Or maybe I'll wait for him to stop sobbing. Yeah, I'm gonna wait."

"As the Rockers and Ice Dancers race down the river, it's a dead heat for not-last-place."

The Ice Dancers paddled quickly and docked at the end of the river, with the Rockers not too far behind them. The Ice Dancers made it to the carpet of completion.

"10th place!" Don told them.

Jacques wiped away some sweat from his forehead. "Phew. That was close."

The scene switched to them in the interview room.

"10th place twice in a row is shameful." Jacques told them.

"Looks like we now have two objectives-" Josee began. "Take the gold, and knock those cadets out."

The Rockers were shown running to the carpet of completion.

"Rock, Spud, I'm sorry to say this, but you are out."

"Aw man..."

"Drat... We were so close..." Spud lamented.

"So close yet so far. Failure for the Rockers and heartbreak for Devin! Who knows what will happen next? You don't, so join us next time for more, here on- the Ridonculous Race!"

Devin was heard sobbing before the camera showed footage of the Rockers.

"Getting kicked off was lame, but I'm proud of Spud." Rock told the audience. "At first, I was all, 'Dude!' And then I was all, 'No way!' And then I was like, 'Whaat?'"

"Thanks dude." Spud said. "Maybe we'll win this thing!"

"We just lost." Rock reminded him.

"Oh yeah. I really could have used the million."

The two were shown walking past the Geelong prison. "Well, time to get back to the basement." Rock stated as they got into a taxi. "Better enjoy it while we can!"

"Yeah!"
