"Previously on Total Disventure All Stars, better call Houston because we have a problem. The participants get to travel to space. On Magenta Team, Julia and Fiore are vying for Ally's vote while Jake moped about his sad pathetic love life. Yellow Team surprised all of us by working together, mostly bonding through their mutual hatred of Yul. On Cyan Team, Ellie and Gabby were having relationship issues, luckily Bowie came to the rescue. In the end, Aiden, Jake, and Riya performed a final escape room to win the challenge in which Riya and Jake both left Aiden in the dust sending Cyan to elimination. At the elimination ceremony, Tess decided to vote off Ellie and put her faith in Damien's plea, leaving Gabby on the outs. Sixteen are left, who will be voted off tonight."
(After theme song)
We begin today's episode with Tess and Damien walking to where the boys were picking up firewood with buckets of water in their hands.
"Got the firewood?" Damien asked curiously.
"Yep. Got the water?" Tom answered.
"Yep. Got the machete Gabby?" Tess turned around, only to see Gabby was not nearby, "Gabby?"
"She left to be alone…" Aiden admitted sadly, "She's obviously still angry with us."
"Looks like another job for me and Damien. You guys focus on lunch." Tess told her teammates before Bowie stepped in.
"Uh, you two just voted off her girlfriend. I doubt she wants to talk to you. I'll go look for her." Bowie reminded the duo which caused Damien to glare at him.
"Oh please. It's not like you're a much better choice. All you usually do is manipulate people." Damien scoffed.
"I know it may not look like it Damien, but I do have a heart and I do feel bad for her." Bowie glared back at the nerd.
"Yeah right. C'mon Tess." Damien rolled his eyes before walking off, Tess gave Bowie a sympathetic look before following Damien.
Confessional: Bowie
"I wasn't lying when I said I felt bad for Gabby. After losing both Raj and Ellie in one fell swoop, I'm starting to think that I've been overstepping on how far I should go when it comes to playing this game. I want to start forming some genuine connections in this game but I want to try and balance my strategic plays too. I just hope it's not too late for me to do so." Bowie said solemnly.

Meanwhile back at the Yellow Team's camp: Grett, MK, Alec, and Riya were all sunbathing on beach chairs in their swimsuits.
"You know what's a great retirement idea? Hawaii. I never saw the appeal until right now." Grett smirked.
"Ahhhhhh. I haven't felt this good since… how long have we been here again?" Riya sighed in content.
"I don't know. The days just kinda blend together in these types of shows." MK admitted with a shrug.
"I've never got to enjoy the beach. My son's deathly afraid of sand." Alec told the group.
"Sand?" Riya raised an eyebrow.
"He stepped on broken glass in a sandbox once and ever since he refused to go near the stuff." Alec explained.
"And so you helped him? Right?" Grett asked pointedly.
"Of course I did, once I heard his screams, I immediately put my Charles Dickens novel down and made sure to help." Alec nodded.
"Wait… so you didn't even pay attention to him playing in the sand?" MK asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Uh… I guess you could say that." Alec laughed nervously as he received glares from MK and Grett.
Confessional: MK
"And he wonders why he got divorced." MK scoffed.

"I've noticed you don't have your books this time." Riya brought up to shift the conversation topic much to Alec's relief.
"Kristal confiscated our luggage on the plane, remember? If I had 'A Tale Of Two Citie' in my hand right now, this beach trip would be divine." Alec said contentedly.
"Move over! It's my turn on the chair!" Yul cried out furiously as he walked over with an old green shirt in his hand.
"I don't see your name on this chair." Riya crossed her arms.
"Also Grett, here's a shirt." Yul told his girlfriend as he threw the shirt in her hands.
"I… don't need a shirt though. I'm in my bathing suit." Grett reminded him.
"Well I need to sit in this chair to perfect my tan so could you just get up?!" Yul asked angrily.
"I guess I was done anyway. You can have my chair darling." Grett sighed miserably as she got up to let Yul take a seat in the chair.
Grett then took a sunscreen bottle out much to Yul's disgust and horror which caused him to jerk up a bit from his seat.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Yul asked incredulously.
"You'll get burned sweetie. I was just hoping to help rub some sunscreen on your back." Grett said with a nervous smile.
"Um, no thanks." Yul scoffed.
"Honey, you'll burn." Grett reminded her boyfriend in concern.
"Look honey, I'd rather be bleached like a sun dried tomato than be touched right now." Yul said angrily as he swiped the sunscreen from Grett's hands.
"Did I do something wrong darling?" Grett asked sadly which caused MK, Alec, and Riya to share uncomfortable looks.
"Just get out of here. Go chase a squirrel or something?" Yul grunted.
"Why are you being so rude? Am I not still your girlfriend?!" Grett said furiously.
"And if you want to stay my girlfriend, you'll leave when I count to three!" Yul demanded as he held up his fingers.
"Okay shut up Yul! That's enough!" Riya commanded before taking her coconut drink from beside her and spilling it all over Yul's face and then shoving the coconut on top of his head, "C'mon Grett!"
"Wait for me." MK said angrily as she got up as well.
Grett and Riya then walked off with MK following with a glare towards Yul.
"Pfft, women right? Who needs them?" Yul scoffed which caused Alec to roll his eyes.
Confessional: Yul
"Even though I'm no longer interested in tricking my fans about my relationship with Grett, I still need her to believe we're a thing. If I intend to win this game, which I do, I need that lapdog by my side." Yul smirked confidently.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to Grett, MK, and Riya at the camp when Grett spoke up.
"Thanks for the help Riya… I couldn't have." Grett sighed miserably.
"You're a real disappointment you know that." Riya insulted the influencer much to her shock.
"What?!" Grett asked incredulously.
"What Riya is trying and FAILING to say is that you need to put Yul in his place! Why are you letting him walk all over you?!" MK said angrily.
"I don't want to fight him, girls. What if he leaves me?" Grett said sadly.
"So? What's wrong with being single?" Riya shrugged dismissively.
"I don't want to be alone." Grett explained.
"You can't let men like that hold you back." Riya said sternly, "I used to look up to you when I rewatched season one, you didn't take a shit from anyone and now look at you, just another scared wounded gazelle."
"He's all I have. My mother doesn't care about me and has always favored my brother who wastes no time telling me how useless I am to the family dynamic. And about me not taking a shit from anyone… I'm not that intense when the cameras are off. I played up the attitude to protect myself from my own failures catching up to me. Every day since season one ended, I felt like I was living a lie selling products I don't even care about and making friends who don't even remember my name. Sometimes I look in the mirror and can't even tell who I am anymore. That was until I met Yul, he made me feel like I didn't need to be something I wasn't." Grett vented with tears in her eyes.
"Oh… oh god…" MK looked away sheepishly, not even she had a witty retort to say to that. Riya also looked sympathetic but then glared at Grett.
"Look, I'll make this simple. Next time Yul speaks to you like that, you say something about it because I won't be getting involved all the time." Riya glares at Grett before walking off leaving Grett and MK alone causing MK to breath a sigh.
"Look… I know this may not mean much coming from me, but you gotta get out of that relationship. With the way Yul's treating you, you're always going to feel like an accessory to him rather than your own person and… even I don't want that for you." MK advised calmly.
Confessional: MK
"Seeing how Yul treats Grett is upsetting but their relationship makes me think about my own friendship with Julia. Am I… really my own person or am I just her sidekick? Don't get me wrong, I can tell Julia likes me unlike Yul, but am I really my own person…" MK asked herself.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to Gabby sitting on a log when Tess and Damien walked over.
"Hey, can we sit here?" Tess greeted calmly which caused Gabby to turn away angrily.
"If you wanna be alone that's perfectly fine." Damien said nervously.
"No, I don't want to be alone." Gabby said solemnly which gave Damien and Tess the okay to sit with her.
"If you wanted some company, why did you run off?" Tess asked curiously.
"I don't know but when I'm alone, I have these negative thoughts and I start talking to myself." Gabby explained sadly.
"Talking to yourself? I always wondered why you basically were talking to thin air back in season one." Damien admitted with a raised eyebrow.
"It's not schizophrenia, or I don't think it is. I just like being positive but part of me keeps thinking vengeful thoughts." Gabby said miserably, "When Ellie isn't around to comfort me, it just comes out."
"I have no idea what you're going through but we're here. Hopefully that helps." Tess smiled reassuringly.
"Don't give me that. You and Damien are the reason Ellie isn't here anymore." Gabby glared at the two.
"It wasn't personal against Ellie… at least for me and Tess anyway. We thought you needed some time apart given the whole Villains' Alliance situation and Tom was the one who wanted Ellie gone in the first place." Damien explained.
"That's why you voted for her. We could've fixed things with her and she needs that money, probably more than anyone here." Gabby reminded sharply.
"Well if we're being fair… we all want the money and this isn't exactly a charity contest." Damien chuckled nervously.
"I just want Ellie to be happy." Gabby said miserably.
"We do too." Tess said comfortingly, "But Ellie can rest now and you will see her again. But for now, keep fighting and if that voice comes back. Quiet it, and talk to us instead."
Confessional: Gabby
"How do you expect me not to take Ellie leaving as an attack… but I must admit, Tess and Damien aren't the ones I'm most mad at." Gabby sighed sadly.

Meanwhile back on Magenta Team, Jake was sulking inside the tent when Millie walked inside.
"Hey Jake… I'm hoping this isn't a bad time but I feel like we need to talk." Millie said sheepishly.
"What's up?" Jake asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I get you're upset about the Tom situation right now but right now, you might be in danger of going home. I've seen Julia and Fiore talking to Ally, they might vote against you if we end up losing a challenge." Millie said worriedly.
"Oh crud… what do we do?" Jake's eyes widened fearfully.
"Well I feel like our best shot is making sure you to exceptionally well in this challenge so that we can convince Ally that you're worth keeping around instead of Fiore at least." Millie advised.
"Okay, and I also want to keep my emotions in check so make sure to let me know if I'm doing something wrong, okay?" Jake requested nervously, "Because when I feel cornered. Sometimes I just lash out."
"If that's what you want, I'm all for it." Millie smiled heartily.
Meanwhile back with Tom and Aiden, both of them were making an open fire when Aiden spoke up.
"I miss James, if he were here, I feel things would be a lot easier on us." Aiden sighed miserably.
"I'm sorry buddy. You guys seemed inseparable." Tom said solemnly.
"He's really great. Took a while for me to see it though, but… you probably saw all that." Aiden smiled nervously.
"It was like a Hallmark movie. That kiss up on that mountain in the finale was very confident of you." Tom said happily.
"James helped me find my confidence, especially when I came out to him. Thanks to him I'm less ashamed of my scars, I found them to be hideous for a long time." Aiden admitted with a blush.
"I know that feeling all too well. My scars are just reminders of failure." Tom said miserably.
"Not at all. They show perseverance through adversity." Aiden smiled which caused Tom to smile back.
We then cut to Emily sitting on a picnic blanket when Trevor walked up to her in confusion.
"What's all this?" Trevor raised an eyebrow.
"I worked so damn hard to set this up for Yul, but fuck the girl who tried to save his brand I guess." Emily ranted furiously.
"Wouldn't giving Yul food be against the rules?" Trevor asked warily.
"Probably, but it's so minor so who cares? Want a deviled egg?" Emily asked curiously.
"No thanks, I came to tell you something important but you have to promise not to tease me about it." Trevor said hastily.
"You know I can never promise that, but continue." Emily smirked.
"You were right. I think… I think I like Derek." Trevor confessed.
"Ooh, so shocking." Emily rolled her eyes lightheartedly.
"Yeah given our last talk, I can see why you're not surprised." Trevor scoffed, "Do you even care?"
"Don't let the teasing fool you, I do love gossip. So how did you know you liked him?" Emily asked with a smirk.
"I don't know. I think I always knew deep inside but I think seeing him with someone else finally woke up my true feelings." Trevor admitted sheepishly.
"You should tell him." Emily smiled enthusiastically.
"What if he doesn't feel the same way?" Trevor asked nervously.
"Maybe he will or won't, but at least it'll lift the weight off your shoulders." Emily advised.
"Hey campers, it's challenge time!" Derek's voice was heard through the loudspeakers.
We then see Kristal and Chef standing before the Yellow and Magenta Team before the Cyan Team began walking forward without Ellie.
"Campers, you're getting your first look at the new Cyan Team. Ellie voted off at the last elimination." Chef said happily which had the Yellow Team, Julia, and Fiore all staring wide eyed at this news.
"YEAHHHHHHHH! Oh, that's just awesome!" Jake cheered enthusiastically which earned him a glare from Gabby while Bowie and Tess looked at the scene awkwardly.
Confessional: Alec
"What the actual hell?! Ellie should've been safe as can be in that team with her connections to Gabby and Tess, plus Bowie being in the Villains' Alliance. There should be no way she's gone. I need to find out what happened immediately." Alec said angrily.
Confessional Ends
"I love hearing your reactions but we got a meeting with Oliver at six sooooooo, let's get started. Today's challenge will be a series of rounds. Each round, one person from each team will face off against each other and must go on the slip and slide to reach the basketballs. Then, you'll have to shimmy back on the slip and slide. The first and only team to score three points wins immunity." Kristal explained the challenge.
"What?!" Riya asked in shock.
"That's right. Tonight there will be two losing teams." Chef smirked smugly.
"Goddamnit." MK grunted.
"Don't panic. However, it is not a double elimination. Two teams will go to the elimination ceremony together and vote off a single person. You can vote for someone on your team or the opposing team." Kristal explained which caused MK to smirk at this information.
"We have to win this to maintain our numbers advantage." Tom informed his teammates in a hushed whisper, "If not, we all vote together to ensure none of us go home."
"Agreed. No friendly fire." Damien smiled encouragingly before glaring at Bowie, "Right Bowie?"
"Don't worry, I don't trust the other villains anyway." Bowie rolled his eyes in exasperation which seemed to satisfy his teammates but what they didn't see was that Fiore had been standing a little bit nearby and widened her eyes at what she heard.
Confessional: Fiore
"Ugh! That overly fashionable prick! First we lose Ellie and now Bowie's planning a mutiny. This is NOT good." Fiore said in annoyance.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to Jake, MK, and Aiden at the start of the slip and slide when Kristal spoke up.
"Alright, everyone ready… set… GO!" Kristal said happily.
The three contestants then began sliding on the slippery platform when Aiden glared at Jake.
"Don't try anything stupid Jake." Aiden warned his fellow twink.
"What?! I didn't even do anything!" Jake said angrily.
"I know you will, you're very predictable." Aiden rolled his eyes.
Soon, all three of them made it to the middle of the course where Aiden then picked up the cyan ball before Jake began grabbing the ball to get it out of his hands.
"I was going to leave you alone, but you asked for this." Jake told Aiden.
"Let go." Aiden grunted as they began tugging at the ball, meanwhile Grett was able to grab the yellow ball and start sliding on the next slip and slide.
"So long Lords of the Twinks." MK taunted before making it to the end of the slide and then shooting her ball at the basket with it going in.
"Boom baby!" MK cheered which made Julia smirk at her.
"And MK scores her first point for the Yellow Team." Chef announced.
Confessional: Julia
"I know I should be mad that Jake cost us a point, but given the Yellow Team is down to just the alliance, MK probably needed the win so they wouldn't vote her off." Julia explained before glaring at the camera, "Don't get it twisted though. My only interest in MK is strictly platonic and strategic."
Confessional Ends
We then see Jake sulking back to his teammates when Ally spoke up furiously.
"Jake! You have to concentrate or we'll lose!" Ally said angrily.
"Do not tell me what to do." Jake glared back.
"Jake, Ally has a point. You're too easily provoked by the enemy team. Don't let that happen again." Millie said sternly which caused Jake to hold his hands up defensively.
"Okay… I'm sorry…" Jake sighed miserably.
"I'm taking this next round. This seems easier than most physical challenges." Fiore smirked confidently.
"Next round, Fiore vs Alec vs Gabby. Ready… go!"
Fiore, Alec, and Gabby immediately began sliding through the slip and slide when Alec spoke up.
"Gabby… What happened to Ellie?" Alec asked in concern.
"I don't want to talk about it." Gabby sighed miserably.
"Let me guess, you got blindsided by the other goodie goodies friends you have, you should know better than to put your full faith in them." Fiore said angrily.
"What are you saying…" Gabby raised an eyebrow.
"Those assholes may act like they're your friends but they really just want your vote. After all, the so-called "heroes" back in our season constantly tried to get rid of you all the time, didn't they? It's only a matter of time before they do it again." Fiore explained which caused Gabby to look deep in thought while Alec just gave Fiore a proud smirk.
Confessional: Alec and Fiore
Both of them were sitting on the rock together but Fiore was on Alec's lap.
"Now that Ellie's gone, we need a new member for our Villains' Alliance so we can keep control of the Cyan Team and I doubt Bowie will be so eager to take control of that team since his biggest allies got eliminated." Fiore smirked.
"And given how volatile Gabby can get when she feels betrayed she's the perfect option. I can't believe I'm saying this but well done." Alec complimented the little girl.
"Oh please. It's basic strategy, so of course I figured it out quicker than you did." Fiore scoffed with a smirk in which Alec rolled his eyes.
"By the way, I have to tell you something important involving Bowie…" Fiore told Alec who raised an eyebrow.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to Alec, Gabby, and Fiore each grabbing their balls for their teams and then sliding across the slip and slide. Alec and Gabby both threw their balls towards the net but both of them missed but Fiore was able to get her ball in the net.
"Ha! Take that suckers!" Fiore cheered.
"Fiore shockingly scores the first point for Magenta Team!" Chef said happily which earned him a glare from Fiore.
"Next round, Ally vs Riya vs Tess. Ready… go." Kristal announces before Riya shoved Tess onto Ally while Riya began sliding through the course.
"Riya! What's wrong with you?!" Tess asked incredulously.
"Sorry, just thinking of the fans. The Tessally Stans are gonna go crazy." Riya smirks before continuing to slide through the course.
"Are you okay?" Tess asked Ally in concern.
"I'm fine. Let's just crush Riya!" Ally said happily before they both began going down the slip and slide together but Riya had already made it to the basket and tossed the ball into the net.
"Woohoo!" Riya cheered.
"Riya scores the second point for the Yellow Team." Chef announced.
"Next round is Julia vs Grett vs Bowie." Kristal said happily while Julia and Bowie began glaring at each other in the starting line, "Ready… GO!"
We then see Grett, Julia, and Bowie sliding through the slip and slide before all of them made it to the middle of the course and got their colored balls. As they began sliding through the second part of the course, Bowie bumped Julia with his elbow causing her to fall onto the slide, emitting a chuckle out of him and a furious growl out of Julia. However, because of Bowie leaning in and focusing on his feet, he was able to make it to the end of the course and shoot his ball into the net.
"And it looks like we have our first point for the Cyan Team." Chef smirked.
"Next round we have Millie vs Yul vs Damien." Kristal announced happily.
Millie and Damien both shared a glare with Yul before Millie and Damien looked at each other and nodded.
"Ready… GO!" Kristal said happily and just before Yul began running to the slip and slide, Millie and Damien both stuck a foot out to trip him and began sliding through the slip and slide together.
"WHAT?! Interference!" Yul cried out indignantly.
"You weren't complaining when Riya did it." Jake said smugly which earned him a glare from Yul.
Meanwhile Millie and Damien had now grabbed their balls and made it to the end of the course, Millie missed her shot but Damien was easily able to make his.
"Oooh, looks like Cyan Team got their second point. Maybe this challenge won't end as soon as we thought." Chef said happily.
"Yes!" Damien cheered as he shared a high-five with Tess.
"Magenta and Yellow Team, all your members have gone. Who's going twice?" Kristal smirked.
"You got this Jake?" Millie asked Jake happily.
"I do." Jake nodded confidently.
"Let me go again! I will not allow such a humiliating loss again!" Yul demanded his team.
"Whatever. Saves us the effort." MK rolled her eyes.
"Up next we have Jake vs Tom vs Yul." Kristal announced.
"Listen Jake, can we talk later?" Tom asked with a nervous smile.
"Okay…" Jake raised an eyebrow.
"Ready… GO!" Kristal proclaimed which allowed Jake, Tom, and Yul to start sliding through the slip and slide, grab their balls in the middle of the course and began sliding again.
"Oh Jaaaaaaaaaaake." Yul sing-songs, "Look at Tom's huge bulge in that tight swimsuit! Must be a sight, huh?!"
Oh shut up!" Jake scoffed before throwing his magenta ball at Yul's face, causing him to fall to the ground and soon the ball bounced back in Jake's hands allowing him and Tom to make it to the end of the course.
Jake was the first to throw his ball at the net and it went in causing him to cheer.
"Jake scores the second point for Magenta Team. All the teams are tied and this may be our final round." Chef smirked proudly.
"For our final round we have Ally vs Gabby vs Riya." Kristal announced, "Ready… GO!"
Riya was quick to push Gabby into the water but Ally dodged the attempt to push her afterwards and instead pushed Riya in, causing Gabby to laugh before she and Ally slid through the slide.
The two then got their balls and made it to the net. Both of them threw their balls at the net but both missed but Ally was able to get her ball back quicker and she threw it again and the ball made it into the net.
"Victory Royale!" Ally cheered.
"Ally scores the third point and wins it for Magenta Team!" Kristal said happily, "And it looks like Cyan and Yellow Team will go to elimination together. You guys will have the afternoon to decide who will be the ninth person to get voted off Total Disventure All Stars."
Confessional: Alec
"This is bad. If what Fiore told me is true, all the Cyan Team members plan on voting off one of us tonight and if we don't get Gabby to flip if only for just one round, this could be the beginning of the end for our alliance." Alec said solemnly.
Confessional Ends
We then cut to the Cyan Team sitting at their camp together except Tom wasn't there.
"Where's Tom?" Bowie asked curiously.
"He's going off to talk to Jake. Don't worry, I already informed him on who we're voting for." Aiden answered reassuringly.
"I'm guessing the plan is Riya tonight?" Damien asked curiously.
"You bet. She's a snake in the grass and will backstab us the moment she can. She left me to die on a cliff." Aiden said angrily.
"Like you force fed me live animals! How do I know you won't vote me out instead?!" Gabby asked in a confrontational tone.
"It wasn't personal Gabby. I genuinely was only voting Ellie for strategy reasons. Trust me, I have nothing against you and… I'm sorry about what I did in the eating challenge. I wanted us to win the challenge but you really didn't deserve that." Aiden said solemnly which made Gabby widen her eyes.
"Th-Thank you for apologizing, Aiden. I'm glad to hear that." Gabby admitted with a sheepish smile which made Aiden smile back.
"So Bowie, can we count on you to vote with us tonight?" Damien raised an eyebrow.
"Definitely. The Villains' Alliance has done me more harm than good. I'm on board with taking one of them out tonight." Bowie nodded firmly, Damien studied Bowie's expression and was shocked to see an almost vengeful expression on his face which made Damien smile.
We then cut to the nighttime where Jake was sitting on a rock formation waiting for Tom when the police officer finally showed up.
"Jake… are you ready to talk?" Tom asked nervously.
"What's there to talk about? You're seeing someone, you gave me closure." Jake asked in genuine confusion.
"But what I did wasn't fair to you and…" Tom began before Jake stopped him.
"It's okay Tom. You don't have to keep forcing yourself to be friends with me. I took some time to re-evaluate myself and I've come to terms that your in a relationship and I don't want us to get any closer." Jake said firmly.
"No Jake, please, it's all my fault. I don't have a boyfriend, I'm not dating anyone. I lied." Tom said frantically.
"Wait… then why did you lie? You know how much lying hurts me in our season?" Jake asked sadly.
"I was scared that we'd both end up getting hurt again." Tom explained solemnly.
"Do you know how much it hurt me when you lied to me? I was willing to understand since I don't want to interfere in another relationship but it turns out you lied and… Tom, I'm tired. Is that all you had to say?" Jake sighed miserably.
"Yes." Tom nodded with tears in his eyes.
"Then go… please. Leave me alone." Jake said as he turned to face away from Tom.
Tom sighed before standing up and walking off back to the Cyan Team's camp but not before turning back to Jake one more time.
"I'm sorry for the pain I've caused Jake." Tom sighed before leaving Jake alone.
We then cut to the Cyan and Yellow Teams at the elimination ceremony where Kristal began speaking.
"Wow, we've got quite the turnout tonight. Welcome to this very special elimination ceremony. Since there are so many of you and you're each on different teams, I'm not gonna bother with having Chef call you out. Ready to vote?" Kristal smirked.
"Not yet. Cyan Team, here's my pitch. I'm guessing Ellie's elimination wasn't unanimous." MK smirked mischievously before narrowing her eyes at Gabby, "Isn't that right Gabby?"
"Well… she… they didn't want her here." Gabby sighed solemnly.
"It's only a matter of time before they do the same to you." Riya reminded her.
"Do you really think you can trust the four 'heroes' again, and Bowie is a well known backstabber. After all, he did decide to backstab our alliance after all." Alec crossed his arms at Bowie who gulped at the realization he had been found out.
"After all, the exact same scenario with Ellie happened back in season one, didn't it? Ellie nearly got voted off the first chance your team had, but… there was no immunity totem to save her this time, was there?" Grett asked rhetorically, "Are you willing to let history repeat itself for you too?"
"C'mon. Revenge is best served cold after all." Yul smirked sadistically.
"I… I don't know." Gabby said nervously.
"Okay, that's enough. You guys are taking advantage of Gabby. We didn't vote for Ellie out of pure spite." Tess glared at the Yellow Team members.
"Right. Ellie's gone due to simple strategy. Nothing's personal." Tom nodded.
Gabby glared at Tom as he said this before speaking.
"I'm sorry Tom, but I know that's a lie and I'm sick of being lied to." Gabby said angrily.
"Wait what… what do you mean?" Tom's eyes widened.
"Okay MK, I'll vote with you guys for this round, but only if I decide who goes." Gabby turned to MK who smirked gleefully.
"It's a deal. Who's your unfortunate victim?" MK asked playfully before Gabby whispered the name in the klepto's ear.
"Alec's betrayed Ellie so many times, he's just going to do the same to you." Bowie spoke up.
"You need to reconsider, the villains already have enough power with Julia and Fiore on the other team, they do not need more!" Damien said worriedly.
"Gabby please!" Aiden begged.
"I'm ready to vote." Gabby smirked.
"Well… that was exciting. With that it's time to vote." Kristal smiled.
Voting: Aiden
He put his vote in the urn with a nervous frown.
Voting: Bowie
Bowie looked around nervously as he made his vote.
Voting: Tess
Tess wrote her vote down with a disappointed look.
Voting: Damien
Damien just put his vote in the urn with a miserable expression on his face.
Voting: Tom
Tom just sighed before writing down his vote.
Voting: Yul
He had a sadistic smirk as he wrote his vote down.
Voting: Grett
She smirked as she put her vote in the urn.
Voting: Riya
Riya put her vote in the urn before blowing a kiss at the camera.
Voting: Alec
Alec just put his vote in the urn with his arms crossed and a neutral expression.
Voting: MK
MK smirked as she wrote her vote down before giving the camera a wink.
Voting: Gabby
Despite her previous confidence, Gabby wrote down her vote with a reluctant frown.
Voting Ends
"Once the votes are read. The decision is final. The person voted out must leave the ceremony immediately." Kristal said happily.
"First vote: Riya."
Riya looked unbothered by this.
"Riya."
Riya showed absolutely no worry at receiving another vote.
"Riya."
Riya turned to grin at Tess.
"Riya."
Riya gave an even wider smirk at Aiden who glared at her.
"Riya."
Riya turned to glare at Bowie who glared back.
"Tom."
"I figured…" Tom sighed before Aiden placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Tom."
Aiden frowned nervously.
"Tom."
Damien began biting his nails.
"Tom."
Bowie glared at the villains.
"Tom."
Tess sighed in acceptance.
"Ninth person voted off Total Disventure All Stars: Tom. That's six votes, you must go." Kristal told the officer.
"I'm sorry… but I didn't want to risk you hurting me again." Gabby told Tom solemnly before he sighed, for he knew exactly what she meant when she said that.
"I'm the one who should be sorry. I enabled Aiden to force feed you live animals in the eating challenge when you weren't comfortable with it and voted off Ellie due to my own grudges without even considering your feelings. I seem to hurt the ones I care about a lot… For what it's worth Gabby, I do appreciate you." Tom said sadly before he and Gabby shared a hug, although there were tears in both their eyes before they opted to let each other go.
"I wish all five of you the best of luck. Aiden, Tess, Damien, Bowie, it was a pleasure meeting all of you. Can someone say bye to Jake for me?" Tom said with a sad smile.
"Of course Tom." Aiden smiled back softly which Tom gave a genuine smile at.
We then cut to Tom at the bus stop when he noticed the camera and gave it a salute and a smile before the bus came and he got on it before it drove him away.
Author's Note: Since we have a few more original challenges to go before we merge, I decided to eliminate Tom a bit earlier than canon given the fact that if I kept him until the merge, his arc with Jake would take EONS and I don't think you want that, so that's why I decided to eliminate him. I hope the Tomjake talk was satisfactory and if it wasn't… sorry about that.
