Episode 34, a beginning of a new phase!
Lacueva- I said this in pm, but I just forgot to include Sadie in the fatties alliance so you're right. I'm very shocked a Sammy moment is your favorite!
Jaron58- The person who suggested the Julia fat storyline is a legend, that basically carries Loser's Lounge lol
Codammy Forever- Thanks. We'll see if Cody and Sammy do end up on the same phase 3 team. About the Q/A, if it happens, it'd be about the writing process for the season because there were a lot of changes made that will be interesting to talk about.
Red Rain- I've missed writing MKulia moments, at least they have some Loser's Lounge stuff going on with Julia stanning for her. Are Heather and Axel even frenemies, they had no negative moments to think of. I'm glad you liked Taylor's flop era moments.
Mortal01- I knew you'd stan any crumbs of Justin and AM interacting. "you stupid individual" was amusing. She was in the kitchen but wasn't visible to him. Chase didn't remember who Zee was in episode 2. Rodney is obvs the best character this season
myfacewhen- TRUE
puzzlefan123- We'll see if it comes true
Recap
"Last time on Total Drama Ultimate… Mary tried to make a deal with Noah once the Amber Team returned from the elimination ceremony. He tried to warn Staci about this, only for Staci to instantly rat him out. Emma was pissed about Wayne's elimination, and she made sure to let Millie know it. Chet continued his campaign to Brick that Courtney could not be trusted. In the most important conversation ever, Jo and MK talked about where they got their sweatpants from. Taylor found the real idol and went on a power trip, trying to force Blaineley and Scott to do her bidding. Nichelle and Sammy got into a massive fight that Duncan instigating, only serving to further sever the Emerald Team's trust in each other. After a pancake reward, Cody and Lightning talked to each other about their parental neglect. The challenge was running on a treadmill, which resulted in the Emerald, Amethyst, and Gold Teams losing the challenge. In a twist of fate, Harold and Duncan tied in a tiebreaker, causing both to leave the show. Courtney caught wind of Chet and MK's plan to flip Brick, so she went to them first and flipped on Brick. Lastly, Taylor got blindsided with an idol in her pocket. Now only 24 are left and a new phase is beginning. What will the fallout to last night's votes be? Who will be the first victims of this brand new stage of the game? Find out on this new episode of… Total Drama Ultimate!"
Intro
Day 65
Cut to Amethyst Team
Courtney and Jo shoot daggers at one another during the walk back to camp. Once they finally arrive, the tension finally boils over.
"You're such an idiot!" Jo barks.
"You would've done the same if you were in my position, stop giving me a hard time!" Courtney defends herself.
"I literally talked to Brick, and he told me that he wasn't going to flip! A simple conversation could've cleared up any doubt you had."
"How could I have been certain that he wasn't lying?"
"Brick is an honorable guy, he wouldn't-"
"HONORABLE?" Courtney cuts Jo off. "I had to deal with his bullshit ALL SEASON! Do you know how stressful it was to have an ally that was constantly battling with his morals? Him voting with me or not, during both the last phase, and this one, was like flipping a coin!"
Chet and MK grin at one another, clearly enjoying the drama that's unfolding.
"Do you realize how much of a hypocrite you're being right now?"
Courtney flips Jo off and walks away, not wanting to speak to her for any longer.
"Yeah yeah, go ahead and walk away. REAL CLASSY, COURTNEY!" Jo yells, then storms off in the opposite direction.
"Yikes." MK and Chet say in unison.
"Jinx, you owe me a soda!" Chet says.
"Shut up."
"Rude…"
Confessional: Jo
"When I'm more loyal to Brick than you are, that's a problem! Good thing we're swapping, but Courtney was so stupid for that and I want her gone."
Conf end
Confessional: Courtney
"Jo is judging me when she hasn't gone through the same struggles in the game that I have! Brick is a nice guy, but he did deserve to go."
Conf end
Confessional: MK
"Their alliance is completely fractured going into the new phase, this is great!"
Conf end
Confessional: Chet
"I'm excited for the new phase. I hope I'm on a team with some Yellow members, I've only had a chance to vote off Crimson so far."
Conf end
Cut to Emerald Team
We see the whole team sitting together at camp. Nichelle and Sammy exchange annoyed looks, obviously unhappy that the other remains in the game. Tammy and Shawn watch this. "This is awkward…" Shawn says, a master at stating the obvious.
Tammy laughs. "True. I'm going to the bathroom, don't try to kill each other while I'm gone!" she jokes, though from the looks of the others, it isn't seen as too funny. The camera follows Tammy as she goes into the woods. She looks like she's about to pee, but she sees a string under a rock. Her bladder is the least of her concerns after that, and she picks the rock up to find an idol under it.
Confessional: Tammy
"Finding an idol right before a new phase?! That is big news and will be a boon for my game! I'm glad we're swapping now, being the only person not in that toxic friend triangle trio or whatever they have going on is weird."
Conf end
Cut to Ruby Team
We see Raj pulling a few flowers out of the ground while he's thinking alone. But as usual, someone has to walk up and talk to the person who is alone- in this case, it's Sugar. "HEY." she yells, not knowing the concept of lowering her voice it seems.
"Hi." Raj responds dryly.
"We need to talk!"
"About?"
"I don't know, maybe the new phase ya ding dong!" Sugar says sarcastically, causing Raj to look irritated.
"Alright…" Raj says with no emotion in his tone, which Sugar picks up on.
"Stop sounding like an emo, I've had enough of those on these shows! What's your problem?" Sugar asks.
"I'm just thinking about the last eliminations we saw. I-"
"SUCK IT UP!" Sugar screams at the top of her lungs, startling Raj. This causes Sugar to begin laughing. "TV executives, you NEED to pick up my show idea: That's Nothing!"
Raj growls, clearly not in a good mood. "Was that necessary?"
"Yeah, you should've seen the look on your face when I yelled!"
"You should see how much of an annoying nuisance you are, get away from me!" Raj surprisingly snaps, causing Sugar to look shocked.
"Sugar only leaves when she wants to leave!" she replies after some hesitation.
"Can you please want to leave now?" Raj asks.
"I do want to leave, but only because there are some leftover pancakes from our last reward." Sugar says before walking off.
Confessional: Sugar
"I didn't expect the ferocity, but Sugar liked it more than when he was friendly with the tracksuit guy! Now things feel like a REAL pageant show around here, no fake kindness!"
Conf end
Confessional: Raj
"I don't consider myself an angry guy… but she's so annoying and needlessly rude, and I'm already in a bad mood anyways! She's like someone on an opposing hockey team who doesn't know when to stop the competitive banter, there are limits before you get annoying!" Raj exclaims.
Conf end
We cut to Chris in an open field
For the final time, we see the Ruby, Sapphire, and Amber Teams make their way to their team mats. Once they're settled in, the Emerald Team is called to join them. "Getting your final look at the Emerald Team… Duncan AND Harold were voted out at the last elimination."
Confessional: Sugar
"Oh darn, that emo was an ally to me!"
Conf end
Once the Emerald Team is settled in, the Amethyst Team enters next. "Getting your final look at the Amethyst Team… Brick voted out at the last elimination." Chris announces, though no one gives a strong reaction. Lastly, the Gold Team enters. "Getting your final look at the Gold Team… Taylor voted out at the last elimination."
This causes Jen to gasp. "That is a robbery!"
"That brat deserved it." Blaineley says as she and Scott scan the other teams, both noticing who isn't there.
"That's rude to say."
"That's why I said it."
Confessional: Blaineley
"Huh, Duncan is gone. I wonder what happened there. Even though he was my ally at times, I am glad he's gone, Amy deserved better than a horrible boyfriend like him!"
Conf end
Confessional: Jen
"Ugh, I'm glad the last og Queen's Quest member, and it's only the final 24. Blaineley needed to back off there."
Conf end
Confessional: Scott
"Harold and Brick are gone? This isn't bad news! Courtney and I are the only Red Team members left in the game, we outlasted everyone who had it out for us when the game started and it feels good."
Conf end
"Well… all of you have done a great job this season to outlast 76 people. I know you are all really wanting to merge, but you will have to wait a little bit longer for that! It's time to change things up again, everyone drop your buffs!" Chris says. Everyone does just that, dropping the colors they've had for over three weeks to the ground. "Alright, so if anyone has a final 24 specific advantage, now is your chance to use it."
…
"I have it." Shawn announces, causing everyone to be taken by surprise. "I was lended this advantage from someone in the Loser's Lounge-"
"Jasmine?" Tammy asks.
"Probably."
"Open it up." Chris urges. Shawn opens the advantage. "Read it out loud."
"This phase will have 3 teams with 8 members on each team. Since you own this advantage, you will get to choose your own team. Pick any seven people to join you, the sixteen people not picked will draw buffs for the other two teams." Shawn reads out, causing everyone to look shocked.
"There you have it. Shawn, go in your confessional and write down who you want to join your team. I'll announce who you pick afterwards."
Confessional: Shawn
Shawn is holding a pen and paper. "Oh god, this is a lot of power to have!" he says worriedly. "First things first, the Forgiveness Alliance nearly had some of its members get eliminated a lot, so it's best to put us all on the same team."
Shawn writes Nichelle, Josee, and Alejandro's names on the paper first. "Now, I just need to get some random people together for us to easily boot."
Conf end
We cut back to Chris. "Alright, this is the team Shawn chose. If I call your name, go to the Red Mat, where you will be known as the Fire Team. Obviously, come up Shawn."
Shawn nods and walks to the mat.
"Nichelle."
Confessional: Nichelle
"Not a shock."
Conf end
"Josee."
Confessional: Josee
"He made the correct choice!"
Conf end
"Alejandro."
Confessional: Alejandro
Alejandro grins. "The whole gang's back together, and at minimum we have half the team! I see an easy merge for the four of us."
Conf end
"Jen."
Confessional: Jen
"I've never spoken to Shawn, why did he pick me?"
Conf end
"Blaineley."
Confessional: Blaineley
"Did that zombie freak have to pick me on the same team with Jen right after I insulted her flop friend going home?"
Conf end
"Izzy."
Confessional: Izzy
"Oh, guess I'll be split from one of my allies, haha!"
Conf end
"And Noah."
Confessional: Noah
Noah groans. "Oh great, it's obvious that the four Green Team people have an alliance of some sort. And being on Alejandro's team after World Tour isn't exactly my ideal version of fun."
Conf end
Confessional: Shawn
"Those four seem like easy boots." Shawn shrugs.
Conf end
We see Shawn, Nichelle, Alejandro, Josee, Noah, Izzy, Jen, and Blaineley standing on the Fire Team mat together. Chris holds an urn with sixteen buffs. "Eight of these contain blue buffs that will make up the Water Team. The other eight have green buffs that will make up the Earth Team."
"Air doesn't get a representative team to complete the quartet?" Mary questions.
"No."
"You should've done 4 teams of 6-"
"Shut up, Mary." Chris shuts down.
"I wish our team was the Earth Team, I've been wearing green all season." Nichelle complains, wanting to keep her green streak alive.
"At least you had a chance to repeat colors, I can't be on a purple team." Chet also complains.
"No one cares." Chris says. "Everyone, pick a buff."
Chris goes one by one to the sixteen not on a team yet. They each pick a buff out of the urn, though they can't see what it is yet due to the packaging. "Open them up." Chris says. Everyone does just that, and these are the official phase 3 teams.
Fire Team: Alejandro, Josee, Nichelle, Shawn, Izzy, Noah, Blaineley, Jen
Water Team: Cody, Chet, MK, Sammy, Millie, Emma23, Lightning, Sugar
Earth Team: Scott, Courtney, Tammy, Jo, Mary, Raj, Kitty, Staci
Confessional: Cody
"I think this was a great draw for me! I have Lightning and I guess Sugar, and I was working with Chet in phase 1. That should be half the team alone that won't vote for me."
Conf end
Confessional: Chet
"Emma AND Millie… ew." Chet groans. "At least MK is here, and maybe I can reconnect with Cody too."
Conf end
Confessional: MK
"At least I'm not with Tammy." MK shrugs, happy the 50/50 chance ended up in her favor.
Conf end
Confessional: Sammy
"I'm not that shocked that Shawn didn't pick me for his team… and I'm glad too, I don't have to deal with Nichelle this way. Anyways, this is a complete fresh start for me. No Nichelle, no Shawn, no Tammy, no Izzy, and no Mary means these are all new teammates for me."
Conf end
Confessional: Millie
"I'm worried about a certain someone…" Millie grimaces.
Conf end
Confessional: Emma23
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I AM SEPERATED FROM KITTY, BUT I AM STUCK WITH MILLIE! She is going DOWN, I promise you that!" Emma yells. Emma takes a few deep breaths. "No Emma, don't let your anger get the best of you."
…
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH-"
Conf end
Confessional: Lightning
"This team looks sha-awful, I'm going to have to carry most of these losers to victory!"
Conf end
Confessional: Sugar
"This was a decent draw for good old Sugar! I'll have to see what minds I can manipulate."
Conf end
Confessional: Scott
"YES! I'm back with Courtney, that's exactly what I wanted!"
Conf end
Confessional: Courtney
"YES! I'm back with Scott, that's exactly what I wanted! What I didn't want on the other hand is Jo, I need to make sure she goes as soon as possible!"
Conf end
Confessional: Tammy
"I've spoken to literally none of these people before. I hope no one has any preconceived notions about me."
Conf end
Confessional: Jo
"I know who my first target will be…"
Conf end
Confessional: Mary
"Hmm, this is quite the interesting draw. It sucks to lose Izzy as she was a loyal number to me, but at least I still have Staci by my side. I'll see what alliances form before determining my next move."
Conf end
Confessional: Raj
"I liked Kitty in phase 1, I'm glad to be on her team again. I'm also glad to be away from Sugar. We formed a duo a few days ago, but being around her 24/7 would've been… yeah."
Conf end
Confessional: Kitty
"This is my first time away from Emma, and from the other Sapphire members as a whole. Time to play!"
Conf end
Confessional: Staci
"Aw, I'm separated from Izzy. Our duo was doing so good!" Staci sighs. "I still have the witch with me though!"
Conf end
Chris throws maps at Shawn, Lightning, and Jo. "Head to your new camps!"
…
Cut to Fire Team
We see the Fire Team walk to their camp, but it isn't what they were expecting. "Why is our camp at a volcano?" Jen asks with worry as she scans the surrounding area. "
"Haha. Fire Team. Chris, you're so funny." Noah rolls his eyes. "I doubt it's an active volcano at least."
"There aren't many bushes or trees nearby…" Alejandro frowns.
Confessional: Alejandro
"This is going to be a tough place to live, must be the price the person with the advantage has to pay."
Conf end
Cut to Water Team
"Hey… at least we won't have to keep taking long walks to the lake, there is so much water around here!" Cody exclaims as he looks around. There are small lakes and ponds everywhere, which is much more than the one lake all camps had beforehand.
"7.8/10 too much water." MK comments, getting a laugh out of Cody.
"I get the reference!"
"Wow, I thought no one would." MK replies.
"What is the reference?" Millie asks.
"It's about a video game-"
"I don't play many of those, I'm old school in that sense." Millie says.
Confessional: MK
"We get it Millie, you're so quirky and different from most people our age."
Conf end
Cut to Earth Team
"This place is beautiful!" Kitty awes as the team sees their camp full of gorgeous nature. The grass is green and lush, the plants are pretty, and there are some hills that provide good views. Birds are flying around.
"This camp is way nicer than the ones in the first two phases." Mary notes.
"I didn't mind roughing it out, but this is a decent change of pace." Scott looks around.
Confessional: Staci
"My oldest relative, God, invented nature! It's awesome to be living in it!" Staci says, though this is a manmade island.
Conf end
Cut to Fire Team
We cut to the Forgiveness Alliance standing near a bunch of rocks. "It's going to be so uncomfortable sleeping here." Nichelle sighs.
"You'll get used to it, I've slept in way more uncomfortable places!" Shawn replies.
"To the shock of no one." Josee says sarcastically. "Anyways, we need to make this quick before anyone gets suspicious."
"Exactly." Alejandro nods. "First of all, good work on having an advantage, Shawn."
"I didn't even do anything to earn it-"
"Picking the four of us to be on the same team is a winning move. Josee and I would've been in deep trouble if our team lost again, we only survived Tyler's boot because of your idol, Nichelle." Alejandro says.
"You're welcome." she bows in response.
"The four of us need to stick together, we need to divide the other four. Blaineley was snarky to Jen earlier, so maybe try to focus on that." Alejandro suggests.
"Should be easy, Mildred seems like a whiner." Josee replies.
"True. I feel like we should throw the challenge and capitalize on their conflict before anyone realizes they'll need to tie the vote to stand a chance. We'd be down in numbers to start the phase, but it could pay off long term as we'd hold the majority after that." Nichelle suggests.
"ARE YOU CRAZY? Throwing a challenge this early would be stupid, we should be going for the gold!" Josee exclaims in shock.
"There might be some merit to the idea." Alejandro agrees.
"I don't think I can do that." Josee shakes her head.
Confessional: Josee
"I'm a competitor, losing on purpose is crazy talk!"
Conf end
We see Jen searching around the area. "I wish there was more water around here…" Jen sighs. She turns around and sees Noah walking up to her.
"Hi." Noah waves.
"Hello." Jen waves back. "How are you?"
"This camp sucks, so I'm doing brilliantly." Noah deadpans.
"Yeah, this camp does suck. Getting water will be a chore." Jen catches onto the sarcasm and agrees. There is a moment of silence afterwards.
…
"My number one fan hates you." Noah says out of the blue.
"I don't care."
"Oh."
…
"So anyways, we need to work together." Noah states.
"To take out Blaineley first? Sure. She took out my girl Taylor, so-" Jen tries to say before getting cut off.
"No, not for Blaineley. I know that she's an annoying-"
"Stupid."
"Dumb."
"Old."
"Fame hungry."
"Desperate."
"Washed up."
"Filthy."
"Bottom Feeding."
"Trash bag."
"Old hag." Noah finishes the barrage of insults. "But, there are bigger fish to fry. I have a feeling all the Green Team members are working together, we will have to do something about it."
Jen hums in thought. "Are you sure they're all working together?"
"Are you kidding me, of course-"
"Relax, I'm kidding. Now that you mention it, they are something to look out for." Jen says.
"So, you're with me on this?" Noah asks.
"I guess so." Jen nods before the duo shakes hands.
Confessional: Noah
"Okay, so Jen won't be one of those idiots who will be fine putting themselves in a worse position just to spite someone."
Conf end
Confessional: Jen
"Noah does make a lot of sense with his pitch. It'd be weird of Shawn to pick old teammates if they were his enemies after all."
Conf end
Jen walks off as Izzy walks in. She tackles Noah to the ground. "Hey Noah!"
"Hi…" Noah groans in pain. "Why did you tackle me?"
"For fun!" Izzy laughs. "I heard what you said to Jen… does that mean you want to work with me too?"
"You were listening- nevermind, that doesn't shock me at all. But yes, I do." Noah confirms.
"Okay, I need to tell you something then…" Izzy says.
Noah raises an eyebrow. "Yes?"
"I'm the reason Emma went home, so I totally ruined your girlfriend's game!" Izzy exclaims.
…
"What the fuck?" Noah asks with annoyance. "Are you serious?"
"Yup!" Izzy confirms. "Anyways, who are we going to target first?"
Noah pushes Izzy off of him before walking away with an annoyed expression.
"Was it something I said?" Izzy wonders out loud.
Confessional: Izzy
"Haha, I totally forgot I even did that! That was random of me to do, haha!" Izzy laughs.
Conf end
Confessional: Noah
"Izzy got rid of Emma? I'm not 100% sure if she's serious, but if she is, I-" Noah stops to take a deep breath. "I can't target her over it… not with the current situation the team is in."
Conf end
Cut to Water Team
Millie slowly walks up to Emma, worry plastered on her face. Emma's eyes narrow at the sight of her. MK is sitting near Emma and watches this interaction.
"What do you want?" Emma says with a touch of annoyance.
Millie scratches her head. "A truce?"
Emma raises an eyebrow. "Huh?"
"Look, I feel terrible about blindsiding Wayne-"
Confessional: Millie
"That's a complete lie, but I need to alleviate tension with Emma somehow!"
Conf end
"-and I just want us to come into this phase on a clean slate. Truce?" Millie finishes.
Emma's earlier annoyance seems to dissipate. "Okay, I guess we can do that. Sorry for snapping at you, I can get angry!"
Millie grins. "Thanks! Maybe we could even become friends?"
"Don't push it." Emma says sternly, but ends up laughing at herself, seemingly willing to let bygones be bygones.
Millie laughs too. "Y'know, it was probably for the best that I took Wayne out. A silly guy like him can only be on one of these shows for so long before they get stale!" Millie tries to make a joke while laughing, but Emma doesn't.
"Oh, is THAT what you think?" Emma raises her voice, causing MK to flinch at the loudness. "GRRAH, I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW INSENSITIVE YOU ARE! WERE YOU EVEN BEING GENUINE ABOUT WANTING A TRUCE?"
"UH- I- I-" Millie stutters, genuinely flabbergasted by Emma's sudden outburst. "Did I say something wrong?" She thinks.
"YOU LIED ABOUT WANTING A TRUCE, WHAT A SHOCK! YOU- YOU- TRUCE LYING TRAMP! Do you feel good about yourself for that lie? WELL STOP IT. I hope you were writing ANOTHER notebook and all of your friends- all two of them- get mad at you again! LEAVE ME ALONE!" Emma screams at the top of her lungs, causing a mini earthquake to commence.
Millie, not wanting to make the situation worse (if that's even possible; she really fucked up), respects Emma's request and leaves her alone. She walks off elsewhere.
Confessional: Millie
"I may have been getting better at this game recently, but my social skills still leave a lot to be desired…"
Conf end
Confessional: Emma23
"Oops… I got heated again." Emma looks guilty.
Conf end
"Wow… you sounded pissed." MK notes.
"She voted out my boyfriend, I have a right to be." Emma says.
"Wayne is your boyfriend? Ugh."
"What do you mean 'ugh'-"
"Nothing. But you have anger problems, you should see a therapist." MK suggests.
"I HAD a therapist, but they dropped me!" Emma responds.
MK looks flabbergasted. "The therapist dropped YOU? How does that even happen?"
"I destroyed her office multiple times." Emma replies.
Confessional: MK
"To the shock of no one…"
Conf end
After her encounter with Emma, Millie walks around to relax. When she walks near a lake, she spots Sammy, who is swimming. Millie glances at her, as if wanting to say hi. Ultimately, she says silent. Sammy notices this and considers speaking to Millie herself. She also hesitates.
...
"Hey, you wanna swim?" Sammy finally says.
"Uh... Sure." Millie mumbles. She tip-toes into the water. It feels cold.
"Brr..." Millie shivers.
"You'll get used to it in a few minutes." Sammy assures. Millie gets in the water. The water rises by six inches as the duo swim in silence for a minute or two.
"What was that shouting about?" Sammy breaks the silence again. "I could hear it in the distance, but couldn't make out any words."
Millie frowns. "I said something stupid to Emma, and she got mad. Like, MAD mad."
"Oh." Sammy pauses. "What did you say?"
"I honestly don't even remember the specifics... some joke about Wayne's elimination? He's her boyfriend, so I can see why she didn't find my comment humorous in hindsight." Millie says.
"I see." Sammy processes Millie's situation. "Sorry to hear that."
"Enough about me." Millie chuckles. "I doubt you've gotten into any arguments recently, but how have you been?"
"Nichelle and I got into a fist fight recently."
"WHAT?" Millie gasps. "What happened?"
"It's a long story… are you sure you want to hear it?" Sammy asks. Millie smiles in response.
Confessional: Sammy
"Millie and I both had recent conflicts, that's a good first bonding point!"
Conf end
We see Cody scooping some water into his hands and sipping. "HEY." a loud voice booms, causing Cody to accidentally snort the water up his nose in surprise. He begins coughing and gasping for a few moments before gaining his composure.
"Chet, you scared me!" Cody clutches his chest.
"Sorry, I just meant to shock you a little, not kill you with water." Chet apologizes. "Anyways… we both made it through phase 2, and we're the last Purple Team members left in the game! Who would've expected that?"
"No one." Cody laughs. "Remember when you were mad about me voting for you at Beth's elimination? That feels like forever ago."
Confessional: Cody
"Also, no one expected Chet to make it to the final 24 in general…" Cody shades.
Conf end
"Yeah, but I've moved on from that. I think we need to reunite our alliance." Chet suggests.
Cody perks up, always happy to get an alliance offer in a game like this. "That's a good idea, but two people won't do the full job. Is there anyone else you want on board?"
"MK." Chet says quickly. "She's a part of the anti Yellow Team agenda!"
"The what?" Cody raises an eyebrow.
"I'll fill in more later. Anyways, Emma needs to be our first target, then Millie for being a Yellow Team sympathizer."
"A what-"
"I said I'll fill you in later! But I want MK as a part of our core group, who would you choose to join us?" Chet inquires.
"Lightning." Cody answers.
"Huh." Chet looks surprised. "That's kind of random, I wouldn't expect you two to get along… or is this a 'at least he's better than Sugar' pick from your previous team?"
"Both." Cody laughs. "Lightning is amazing, I'm sure he can be a good asset to us."
"I hope he is." Chet nods.
Confessional: Chet
"Reunited with Cody, and I already have a good position!"
Conf end
Confessional: Cody
"I'm going to loop in Sugar because we did work together on some votes back on the Ruby Team! I feel pretty good right now."
Conf end
We cut to Sugar swimming in one of the lakes. Lightning is running by, but he gets stopped by Sugar's voice. "HEY."
Lightning groans, not liking when he's interrupted on one of his runs. "What do you need?" he asks.
"I just want to ask if we're on the same book?" Sugar asks, causing Lightning to look confused.
"What are you talking about?"
"Oops, I mean the same page. Sugar struggles to remember certain phrases."
"That doesn't shock the Lightning." Lightning rolls his eyes.
"SHUT UP. Anyways, the two of us and Cody need to stick together on this team!" Sugar says. "The three of us could be more dominant than me in a buffet!"
"I doubt we could get quite that dominant, but I can agree to that." Lightning gives a thumbs up before continuing his run.
Confessional: Lightning
"Honey boo boo is annoying, but she ain't the worst at challenges. I'm more concerned with targeting someone like Millie, didn't she not even try in her seasons?"
Conf end
Cut to Earth Team
We see Scott and Courtney walking in a grassy field. "I still can't get over how beautiful this place is." Courtney awes. "I'm glad we are reuniting at this camp!"
"Same here, I've missed playing with you. I had to go to the final two of a team with Blaineley, that's how bad things got for me on the Gold Team!" Scott complains.
Courtney looks into his eyes. "Honestly, you have no idea how worried I was for you. Knowing that you could've gone home THAT many times was a scary prospect."
"I'm still here, aren't I?" Scott chuckles. "I managed to overcome a 5 vs 1 battle right after overcoming a lot of the Red Team's majority, no one can get rid of me that easily!"
"Good thing, too." Courtney laughs.
There is a moment of silence before Scott speaks up. "Say, didn't you tell me that you were working with Brick? What happened to get him eliminated?" Scott asks.
"Well…" Courtney trails off. "I got tired of his flipping, Chet and MK were trying to get him to flip all day by painting me as this horrible person. If you remember, that's basically the death knell to your game as far as Brick is concerned. Since it was the last vote of the phase, I just decided to flip to Chet and MK's side to get rid of Brick before he could get rid of me. Jo is kind of pissed off at me though, we need to target her before she can target us."
"I wouldn't mind getting rid of Jo, but what do you think about the others?" Scott asks.
"Hm… I think I could get along with Kitty. I've talked with her sister outside of the game, so it should be an easy bonding point." Courtney states. "Raj threw a pig at me last challenge, but he's probably decent otherwise."
Scott begins laughing. "That was kind of funny…"
"Hey!"
Scott clears his throat. "Sorry. Anyways, I don't trust Mary at all. Remember what she was doing in the first challenge by tricking all of those people into jumping off their platform? She is smart and could be actual opposition to us." Scott worries.
"Oh wait, I totally forgot about that! Didn't she also beat you and Jo in that one challenge?" Courtney asks.
"Yeah, she did… after Jo, she'd be my first target." Scott says.
"Staci and Tammy…" Courtney trails off while thinking of the remaining two on the team that they haven't talked about. "Neither of us have played with them this season, but how did they make the final 24? They're some of the worst players ever!"
"Probably as pawns." Scott shrugs. "We can easily get them on our side."
"Actually, maybe we should just use them as easy boots after Jo is gone." Courtney suggests.
"Nah, we should try to keep them close. At this point in the game, keeping terrible players like them isn't a bad idea." Scott says. "Carrying one of Tammy or Staci to the final three is basically an easy win for one of us, and they'd vote for whoever we say I feel. Neither of us are exactly having allies lining up at our doorstep, we need all the easy votes in our pockets that we can get."
Courtney slowly nods. "Hm… I guess so. We'll see what happens, but I'll talk with Kitty soon."
"And I'll talk with one of the girls. I'm glad we caught up." Scott smiles, and Courtney returns it.
Confessional: Courtney
"That's how well I work together with Scott! In a five minute conversation, we caught each other up on EVERYTHING and now have some solid plans in place."
Conf end
Confessional: Scott
"I have a good feeling about Courtney and I's chances. I meant what I said regarding Tammy and Staci, you need people like them around."
Conf end
We see Staci watching the rabbits, immersed in the nature her oldest relative God invented. "Aw, those rabbits are cute!" Tammy smiles as she walks up to Staci.
"They sure are, haha!" Staci chuckles. "Since you're a LARPer, I'm surprised you care about nature at all!"
"Contrary to popular belief, being a LARPer is not all there is to me." Tammy replies.
"Popular belief is a stretch, the fanbase doesn't care enough about you for anything involving you to be popular!" Staci responds, causing Tammy to look confused. "No one even puts you in the bottom of their tier lists because they feel passionate hate towards you like they do for me, they just put you at the bottom because you were such a nothingburger, haha!"
Tammy just walks off.
Confessional: Tammy
"I REALLY want to be offended… but judging on the Ridonculous Race alone, she's kind of right. Hopefully this season changed some minds!"
Conf end
Confessional: Staci
"Be honest, did anyone think of Tammy as more than a Leonard clone until now? Nope!"
Conf end
We see Raj and Kitty. "It's good to see you again, I thought you'd be eliminated by now!" Raj exclaims.
"Why?"
"Anyways, how have you been?" Raj asks.
"You didn't answer the-"
"Thanks for the hat by the way, I'm glad to have it." Raj smiles. Kitty gives up on getting any elaboration.
"You're welcome." Kitty nods. "Anyways… I know we were on opposite sides of the Yellow Team, but we did get along and agreed to play hockey video games after this. So, what do you say about an alliance for this phase?"
Raj cheers. "Yes, please! I need someone who isn't Sugar!"
"What's wrong with Sugar?"
"Everything." Raj says with spite.
"...you are weirdly sassy today." Kitty notes.
"I'm in 'post losing people close to me on TD' depression. It will wear off soon!" Raj explains.
"I see." Kitty says. "Anyways, who do you think we should target?"
"Maybe Mary or Staci." Raj says.
"I wonder why." Kitty deadpans. "I'm not opposed to it though. No offense to Staci, but she does seem useless, so I wouldn't mind targeting her."
"That sounds offensive…" Raj points out.
"Oh… yeah, it does, doesn't it?"
Confessional: Kitty
"Sorry Staci…"
Conf end
Confessional: Raj
"Mary or Staci could be Noah's allies… well, so is Kitty, but she didn't cause any important eliminations." Raj states. If you're a fan of anyone on the Sapphire Team that Kitty voted out, sorry for that shady statement!
Conf end
Mary is studying some grass like the nerd she is. She isn't studying for long though, as Jo walks up to her. "What are you doing?"
"Researching the grass here, it's quite exciting." Mary snorts.
Jo looks unamused. "Sounds boring."
"Invest in better hobbies." Mary replies.
"I'll stick with what I like… but we should talk." Jo says.
"Indeed we should." Mary agrees, knowing it's time to get in the game.
"Courtney is a snake, she betrayed Brick and I at the Amethyst Team's last voting ceremony. I want her gone first." Jo informs. "Do you think you'd be willing to do that?"
"Perchance." Mary nods.
Confessional: Jo
"I'm going scorched Earth on Courtney, it's best to get rid of my biggest threat now."
Conf end
Confessional: Mary
"It seems that a Jo vs Courtney war is commencing at our camp. I'm not complaining, it keeps Staci and I safe for now."
Conf end
Day 66
Cut to Fire Team
We cut to the morning where everyone is sweating. People are taking their warm clothes off so the heat doesn't kill them, such as Josee's jacket or Noah's sweater vest. "I hate this camp!" Jen complains. "The heat is unbearable!"
"Did they set the temperature at 1000?" Nichelle asks. "Now I REALLY wish we got a different camp."
"Water would be so nice…" Alejandro mumbles.
"Ugh, my sweater is going to get RUINED by sweat!" Jen whines.
Shawn leans over to Blaineley and whispers to her. "What do you think about that?"
"The shirt is ugly anyways, sweat won't affect it much." Blaineley states.
"Really?" Jen raises an eyebrow.
"Yeah, am I wrong? Full shade intended here, but red is a WAY better color anyways." Blaineley replies.
"Blaineley, why are you causing drama?" Alejandro asks.
"Yeah, we're dying of sweat here, we don't need to hear yapping on top of it!" Josee adds. Before Blaineley can reply, Izzy grabs Josee's jacket and tosses it onto her face. Josee sits up and throws it off of her. "Don't put that on me!"
Izzy laughs and does it again, causing Josee to look even more annoyed, just fueling Izzy's laughter. "Sorry, it's fun!" she says. Josee throws it off, but Izzy throws it back onto Josee's face, causing Josee to stand up.
"STOP." Josee yells. She storms off, but Izzy follows her.
Confessional: Josee
"I know who I'd want gone of the four not in the alliance…"
Conf end
Confessional: Shawn
"I instigated more conflict between Blaineley and Jen, I think they'll be less inclined to work with each other now. Things are going according to plan."
Conf end
Confessional: Jen
"Red is a good color… but not for Blaineley. It suits Alejandro and even Noah to some extent, but NOT her."
Conf end
Confessional: Blaineley
"They hated me for speaking the truth."
Conf end
Nichelle, realizing there was some conflict with Blaineley and Jen, decides to do something about it. "Want to come with me, Jen?" Nichelle asks.
"To where?"
"There's like… a small water source we could use to get drinks for everyone." Nichelle replies.
"Alright, I can go with you." Jen nods. As the duo walk away, Shawn and Alejandro scoot over to Blaineley.
"How would you feel if Jen was gone?" Shawn asks. Blaineley smirks.
"I wouldn't mind." she replies.
"We could potentially make it happen." Alejandro says. Noah, who is a little bit away from the trio, has a conflicted look on his face.
Confessional: Noah
"If Blaineley does something stupid, I'm going to kill myself."
Conf end
We see Nichelle and Jen walking off to get water. "Not gonna lie, I'm happy to be on your team." Jen says. "You're someone I enjoy watching."
"Most people enjoy watching me." Nichelle gives a confident smirk, always happy to be praised.
"Right." Jen nods, catching the arrogance.
"Anyways… we can target Blaineley next if you want, she came for your sweater and I am not here for it, I love your designs." Nichelle suggests.
Jen gives a thoughtful look. "I can think about it."
Confessional: Nichelle
"I lied, I only really like her designs. Love is a pretty strong word."
Conf end
Confessional: Jen
"On a personal note, avenging Taylor would be my #1 priority. But throughout this game, emotions haven't driven my decision making. Not when looking through Trent's things to find his idol after bonding with him, not when voting out Kelly despite comparing her to my mother, and not when throwing Chase under the bus when I needed to. No need to start being too emotional now, voting out Blaineley wouldn't be smart."
Conf end
Cut to Water Team
We now cut to the water camp for a stark contrast. Instead of it being super hot like on the Fire Team, it's pouring rain. Since the team didn't build a shelter the previous day, they're getting soaked. "It's s- so cold…" Cody shivers as some wind picks up.
"It hasn't rained like this all season!" Sammy crawls under a tree. Some leaves block the rain, but it isn't great.
"I guess our name fits…" MK complains while shaking.
Cut to Earth Team
The Earth Team seems to be having a peaceful time… but this is Total Drama, so that doesn't last for long. As the team is together with no arguments for the time being, suddenly a bunch of rats run towards them. "Ew!" Courtney shrieks as the rodents scurry towards the team.
"Just step on them, it's what I do!" Scott says as he does just that. After he says that, some pigeons fly towards the team and begin chirping obnoxiously.
"My ears!" Raj exclaims. Everyone leaves the camp, now not happy with the atmosphere. As they split up, Courtney and Kitty managed to leave in the same direction, which Courtney is clearly happy about.
"Kitty, hi!" Courtney waves.
"Hi Courtney." Kitty looks shaken. "Those rats freaked me out."
"I know, they're disgusting." Courtney frowns. After a few moments, Courtney speaks up again. "I've heard a lot about you from Emma."
Kitty smiles, now remembering the connection her sister and Courtney have. "Oh, right! Did she say good things about me?"
Courtney frowns. "Ehhh…" she says, causing Kitty to look worried. Three seconds later, the former CIT begins laughing. "I'm just kidding, she had good things to say about how you did in the race."
"Oh, phew." Kitty takes a sigh of relief. "You scared me. I'm glad she's been saying positive things."
"Yeah, she's relaxed a lot regarding other people." Courtney says. "But just because I'm friends with Emma, doesn't mean she has to be the only sister I can befriend."
Kitty has an understanding smile.
Confessional: Kitty
"This show is really the only time my sister and I have mutual friends! I'll be weary of Courtney though. I know Emma said she's not trustworthy, and we have four seasons of evidence to prove that."
Conf end
Cut to the challenge
We cut to Chris standing near a massive board game esque mat on the ground. The Fire, Water, and Earth teams walk in and look at it before settling on their team mats. "Welcome to your first challenge of Phase 3! Did you enjoy your mornings?" Chris asks.
"No, it was hotter than me." Blaineley says.
"So… not at all?" Chris asks. People laugh at this shut down.
"It was scalding outside, you need to turn the heat down!" Nichelle exclaims.
"We had the opposite problem. It was rainy and windy, we were freezing." Cody frowns.
"I wasn't cold, you guys just need to build character!" Sugar says.
"Animals were pestering us all morning, it was so annoying." Tammy sighs.
"I'm glad you all enjoyed it!" Chris smirks. "But it's time for your challenge. There are 24 rows on that board. You all will each carry a dry erase board and marker as you step on your row. I will ask a question about the eliminated campers, and you will have to guess amongst the three presented options on your dry erase board. If you get the question right, you may step forward. If you get it wrong, then you have to stay put. Once you get 10 questions right, you will have crossed the board. The first team to cross the board will win immunity, the last two will be seeing me tonight. Let's get started!"
Confessional: Emma23
"I am going to kill it!" Emma shrieks. "I know people!"
Will she ever learn?
Conf end
We see everyone lined up. "Alright, first question. Which loser's favorite color is Lime? Junior, Ellody, or Rodney?"
Everyone puts in their answer.
"Mary, Noah, Staci, and Izzy are the only ones to get this correct. It's Ellody!" Chris announces.
"WHAT? But I'm-"
"You're not a people person." MK says. "Just go with the opposite of your gut feeling if you want to advance further."
"But I-"
"Emma." Chet gives a hard glare.
"Fine…"
"How were we supposed to know this?" Lightning crosses his arms.
"You were on their team." Cody points out.
"You think I pay attention to that crap?" Lightning asks. "I barely bonded with them!"
"The whole Amber Team got that right." Sammy notes.
"Yeah, Sierra gave us a bunch of fun facts all the time about Ellody." Noah says.
"I knew this beforehand." Mary snorts.
"She doesn't give off a Lime lover, that's too much personality from her." Nichelle shades.
"All of you can step forward!"

"And everyone except Shawn is right, the answer is Julia!" Chris announces.
"How do you keep getting everything wrong?" Noah asks.
"Sorry, I'm just not great at this…" Shawn says apologetically.
Confessional: Shawn
"Nichelle, Alejandro, and I went through with throwing the challenge so we can take out one of the others right away before they can unite against us. Josee said she wouldn't do it though."

Ennui: Noah, Mary, MK, Emma
Wayne: N/A
"The answer is… Ennui! Noah, Mary, MK, and Emma have answered ten questions correctly, meaning they are done with the challenge! The Water Team is leading with two finishes, while the Fire and Earth Teams trail behind with one."
"How did you guys know that?" Lightning asks.
"I knew it wasn't Chase or Wayne, they would've told me." Emma says.
"Ennui was so randomly included that it felt like it had to be him for the shock factor." MK says.

Gerry: Courtney, Izzy, Nichelle, Shawn

Dwayne: Alejandro, Blaineley, Tammy

Cut to Earth Team
We cut to Courtney, Raj, and Kitty. "I want Jo out, I know she's coming for me." Courtney says with worry in her voice. "Would you two be cool with doing that?"
"Of course!" Kitty agrees. Raj nods quietly, not sure of what to say here.
"Thank you!" Courtney smiles before walking off.
"Is voting for Jo the real plan, or are we going to have a mustache twirling villain moment right now?" Raj asks.
"We should see what the others want to do before-"
"Hey!" a voice says with an aggressive tone. The duo turns to see Jo walking towards them. "I'm going to make this brief. You two need to vote for Courtney. She's a traitor, and I guarantee that she will backstab you guys the first chance she gets."
"Uh, alright." Raj agrees.
Confessional: Jo
"For the first time in this game, I really do feel stressed out on my position, so maybe I'm coming off a bit strong… but I hope they listen."
Conf end
Confessional: Kitty
"I'm not the biggest fan of Jo's aggressive attitude there, but if Courtney flipped, maybe that's a pitch worth listening to."
Conf end
We see Tammy pacing around by herself. "Hey." Scott greets as he walks up to her. "You look nervous."
"Yeah, I didn't finish the challenge, I'm a bit worried that the team is going to hold it against me." Tammy admits.
"Well… I don't think you have to worry about that tonight. Jo and Courtney have some beef from their last phase, and they could target each other. Just vote with me tonight to take out Jo, and I can protect you for a long time." Scott says.
Tammy raises an eyebrow. "I… are you serious?"
"Of course." Scott snickers. "I have no reason to get rid of you!"
"Well… it's a deal." Tammy smiles before the duo shake hands.
Confessional: Scott
"Now I have Tammy!"
Conf end
Confessional: Tammy
"I don't know if I'm reading too much into it, but that conversation felt odd. He approached me like it'd be a one sided alliance where he'd protect me- aka make all the decisions. I can't really stir the boat tonight though, so obviously I agreed."
Conf end
Jo walks up to Staci. "Hi."
Staci turns around. "Hi! My great-"
"Vote for Courtney." Jo says quickly.
"Oh." Staci says with disappointment, wanting to tell a story about her relatives. "Why?"
"She blindsided me at the last vote."
"Oh, so you're feeling beta dog syndrome where you're depressed when you aren't controlling the game?" Staci asks.
"Excuse me?" Jo raises her voice. "That's not it. We just can't have a snake around."
"Ok, I got you! I can vote for Courtney if you want." Staci agrees.
"Thank you." Jo replies. "I have a random question though."
"I love randomness! My great-"
"Did Sky… give you anything after her elimination?" Jo cuts off with a question.
"She gave me a disappointed look, but that's it. There aren't gifts from eliminated people, don't be dumb!" Staci responds.
"Okay then… try to spread the word about Courtney." Jo says before walking off.
…
We see Staci walking up to Mary. "What have you heard about the vote tonight?" Staci asks. "I heard that Jo and Courtney are targeting each other!"
"Tell me something I don't know." Mary replies.
"People from Argentina hate you."
"Huh- nevermind. Jo approached me yesterday, so I feel more inclined to vote with her." Mary states.
"Same! She did ask this weird question though!" Staci laughs.
Mary raises an eyebrow. "What was it?"
"She asked if Sky gave me anything after she got eliminated. Like of fucking course she didn't, you dumb dumb, haha!" Staci chuckles.
"Huh… interesting."
Confessional: Mary
"Jo must be wanting to find out where Sky's mystery advantage went… that makes me shift priorities. Jo finding out that I have Sky's advantage would be a massive negative for my game moving forward. Maybe I should vote for Jo tonight."
Conf end
We cut to Tammy, Scott, Raj, Kitty, Mary, and Staci all standing together.
"They're hardcore going after each other… but who should we pick?" Kitty asks. The group begins discussing as the camera cuts away.
Cut to Fire Team
We see the Forgiveness Alliance standing together. "Make this quick as usual. Let Blaineley and Jen fight it out, but we should probably vote for Izzy." Josee says.
"Why?" Shawn asks.
"She didn't even try to throw the challenge, and she wasn't particularly good today. She has notably flopped challenges like the ice cream or the last phase 1 challenge." Josee explains.
"Blaineley lost seven challenges, I'm surprised that you aren't going for her." Nichelle says.
"Are you annoyed about the jacket?" Alejandro asks.
"Not important."
"You totally are… but keeping in the people with a high likelihood of fighting lessens the chance of any type of comeback with an idol or something in the future. All in on voting for Izzy?"
The alliance does a four way handshake.
…
We see Noah sitting by himself for a moment. As usual, some random person shows up so they aren't alone for long, Alejandro being the culprit in this case. "Hello." Alejandro smirks.
"Hi?" Noah greets with caution. Alejandro sits next to him.
"You know… we don't have the greatest past." Alejandro says.
"I'm aware, I didn't gain dementia in the past few years." Noah says with sarcasm.
"You haven't lost your golden tongue either." Alejandro notes. "Just know, we don't have to be enemies. In London, I was just threatened by your intelligence. In here, I think we could make for a dangerous duo, what do you say?"
Noah looks shocked by the offer. "I have no idea what to say, I wasn't expecting you to say that."
"Expect the unexpected. We just need to vote for Izzy tonight, and things can run smoothly." Alejandro says. Noah looks conflicted at this.
Confessional: Noah
"As if I'm doing that… not sure what he's trying to accomplish."
Conf end
Confessional: Alejandro
"Keeping the outsiders as alternate allies in the future isn't a bad idea. The girls back on the Green Team had Dakota as an option, I want to have more wiggle room than I did in phase 1."
Conf end
Later on, we see Noah gathering Jen, Izzy, and Blaineley.
"What is this freaks and geeks meetup?" Blaineley asks with an unamused look.
"I am not a freak nor a geek." Jen says. Noah rolls his eyes.
"Anyways… I know that you and Jen have had a few squabbles in the past few days, but the four of us need to stick together." Noah says. "The other four were on the same phase 1 team, and I wouldn't be shocked if Shawn chose them all to stay together and chose us to be easy boots."
"Yeah." Jen agrees. "Are you in?"
"Hm… work with the girl jealous that I outlasted all of the Queen's Quest alliance… I could do that to counter an alliance." Blaineley taps her fingers.
"You didn't outlast all of them, I exist." Jen says.
"Version 1 of the alliance died when phase 1 did." Blaineley states. "Both versions have kind of flopped now."
"I have no idea what a Queen's Quest is, but let's be version 3.0!" Izzy exclaims.
"Enough with the name stuff, we need to decide a target." Noah says. "Since it's going to be a tie, we should go for the weakest in challenges… which is Shawn… who is still amazing at them, so we have our work cut out for us."
"They're targeting Izzy I think, so we stand a chance." Jen says, having been informed by Nichelle… OFF SCREEN!
Confessional: Blaineley
"Why are my choices for allies always so bad? Honestly, I'm not sure I want to work with three of the most annoying people ever… I could do something bad!"
Conf end
We see Blaineley fanning herself as she gets water. Nichelle and Josee walk up to her. "So, what are you thinking about the vote?" Josee asks.
"I don't like Jen obviously, so maybe her?" Blaineley suggests.
"Hm… I guess so." Nichelle says.
Confessional: Nichelle
"We are making damn sure the votes from the other four get split!"
Conf end
Blaineley hums, looking like she wants to say something.
Confessional: Blaineley
"I could pull a super diva dramatic move and maybe… cause some drama by ratting out their plan! I'm just a bit torn because I've been playing a decent game actually when I stopped causing drama, I can maybe just win the 10 million by being a normal person. What do I prioritize?"
Conf end
Cut to Earth Team at the campfire ceremony
"Welcome Earth Team to the first elimination of Phase 3! You have all worked hard for 66 days to get to this point, but it won't be enough for one of you. Get voting!"
Voting
"Courtney, I wouldn't have done this if you didn't flip last time. This is payback." Jo votes.
"Jo, you overreacted. You would've done the same in my position. I didn't get to vote you out of All Stars, but I'm glad to finally have the opportunity to do it." Courtney smirks.
"Obviously, I'm going to side with Courtney here. It's nice to vote you out again, I haven't forgotten the leeches!" Scott votes.
Tammy calmly writes a name down.
Raj taps the pen to his head before writing.
Mary takes a deep breath before taking the cap off the pen.
Staci calmly folds her vote before opening the urn.
Kitty looks back at her teammates before writing a name.
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… Jo."
Jo frowns.
"2nd vote… Jo. That's 2 votes for Jo."
Jo glares at Courtney.
"3rd vote… Courtney."
Courtney glares back, causing a stare down.
"4th vote… Jo. 3 votes Jo, 1 vote Courtney."
Jo's eye twitches.
"5th vote… Jo. That's 4 votes for Jo, and 1 vote for Courtney."
Jo angrily looks at her team.
"77th person voted out of Total Drama Ultimate… Jo. That's 5, and tonight that's enough. You've been eliminated."
Jo stands up with a ticked off look. "Are you guys kidding me? I deserved to win this, and you choose to keep that backstabber over me?"
"Sorry, Jo." Kitty apologizes.
"Don't be sorry, shut up." Jo snaps, clearly salty about being eliminated.
"Jo, it's time for you to go." Chris gestures to her to leave.
"That rhymed!" Raj smiles.
"No one cares."
"AH AH AH AH AH!"
With that, Jo walks out, but not before giving one last angry glare to her team.
Confessional: Courtney
"Phew, I won our battle!"
Conf end
Confessional: Mary
"At least the threat of her finding out that I have Sky's advantage is gone…"
Conf end
Cut to Fire Team at the campfire ceremony
"Welcome Fire Team! For a team with that name, you didn't do so… hot." Chris jokes. No one laughs, causing Chris to sigh. "Do none of you have a sense of humor? Whatever. One of you is about to be the first person kicked off this team. Get voting!"
Voting
"You're very annoying, I'll be glad to see you gone." Josee votes for Izzy.
"This is the smartest move, I'm hoping everyone sticks together…" Noah looks nervous while holding his vote for Shawn.
Nichelle gives a confident smirk while putting her vote into the urn.
Jen takes a deep breath while putting her vote into the urn.
Izzy has a maniacal smile while writing her vote.
Shawn taps the pen on the voting table.
Alejandro calmly places his vote in the urn.
Blaineley has a spiteful look while writing a name.
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… Shawn."
Shawn doesn't react.
"2nd vote… Izzy."
Izzy frowns.
"3rd vote… Izzy."
…
"4th vote… Izzy. That's 3 votes for Izzy, 1 vote for Shawn."
Izzy looks around at the team.
"5th vote… Izzy. That's 4 votes Izzy, 1 vote Shawn."
…
"6th vote… Shawn."
Shawn sighs.
"7th vote… Shawn. That's 4 votes Izzy, 3 votes Shawn, 1 vote left…"
The Forgiveness Alliance looks disappointed.
"Last vote… Shawn. That means we have a 4-4 tie on our hands! Everyone except Shawn and Izzy will revote. If it ties again, we are going to a tiebreaker. Get to the revote!"
We get a quick cut of all revotes before cutting back to the campfire ceremony
"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… Shawn."
…
"2nd vote… Izzy."
…
"3rd vote… Shawn."
…
"4th vote… Izzy."
…
"5th vote… Shawn."
…
"Last vote… Izzy. We are deadlocked, so there will be a tiebreaker."
Confessional: Alejandro
"Huh, the other four didn't divide like we thought…"
Conf end
Confessional: Blaineley
"I decided to take Scott's words about winning the money to heart, I won't be a dumb flop who flips."
Conf end
Confessional: Shawn
"I picked my own team and half of them wanted me gone right away, not my finest hour."
Conf end
Confessional: Izzy
"I'm sure I can win whatever challenge this is!"
Conf end
We cut to Izzy and Shawn standing behind two podiums. "We did a question based challenge earlier today, but we're going to switch things up for this tiebreaker! These will be general questions about this season. If you think you know the answer, press your button. If you get the question right, you score a point. The first person to three points will remain in the game."
Shawn and Izzy both nod.
"Alright, let's get this show on the road. Question 1: How many women were eliminated in the first ten boots?"
Izzy presses the button first.
"One, the Pink Team talked about it constantly!"
"Correct! 1-0 in favor of Izzy. Question 2: How many people were eliminated before Phase 2?"
Shawn barely hits the button quicker. "46."
"Correct! 1-1. Question 3: Who was the first person to fall in the first challenge?"
Shawn hits the button. "Jay because he was scared of buttons."
"Correct! 2-1, if Shawn scores again, Izzy is out of this game. Question 4: What was the challenge Carrie was eliminated in?"
Shawn hits the button, prompting worried looks from Noah, Jen, and Blaineley. "The tag challenge."
"Incorrect!" Chris says.
"What? I thought it was tag!"
Izzy hits the button. "It was the water balloon fight, ya goober!"
"Correct! 2-2, the next question will determine our winner! Who was the first Lime Team member to be voted out after losing a challenge?"
Izzy hits the button. "Rodney!"
The Forgiveness Alliance members not competing look horrified while Jen, Blaineley, and Noah cheer.
"Sorry, not correct."
Shawn hits the button. "The Lime Team was chosen to be up for elimination at Rodney's boot, they didn't lose. It was Stephanie."
"Correct! Shawn stays in the game! Izzy, you're the 78th person eliminated from Total Drama Ultimate. Thanks for playing." Chris says. Nichelle, Josee, and Alejandro run up to congratulate Shawn while Izzy looks stunned… or Brainzilla does, in this case.
"How did that trick question not compute to me?" she mutters to herself. She stands up and walks out without saying goodbye to anyone.
…
Jo looks annoyed, and seeing Izzy doesn't exactly improve her mood. Neither say a word to each other as the boat takes them away.
Confessional: Shawn
"YES, I WON!"
Conf end
Confessional: Alejandro
"We got a little cocky this round, but that's not a worry anymore. We hold the majority, and the four of us will reach the merge together."
Conf end
We cut to Chris at the campfire alone. "Jo and Izzy are gone, and 22 remain! Who will go home next? There's only one way to find out, and that's by watching the next episode of Total Drama Ultimate!"
And that's a wrap for episode 34! A transitional episode obviously, but there are the teams until the merge!
Jo- Probably not a shock, she was one of the least relevant characters remaining in the game. She was a powerhouse of Phase 1 and played a good game. She got a bit shafted in phase 2 due to Scarlett's sudden early departure, but she had a nice rivalry in her boot episode ig. RIP
Izzy- To the shock of no one! I think most people assumed she was on borrowed time in the new phase, and once she got separated from Mary/Staci it became clear she was gone. She made f23 by being a support member other than the brainzilla thing, but her role in phase 2- while not the most exciting from her perspective- was essential for Mary's character, so I don't regret her role in the story. You need those people for a reason, and for her role, she filled what was needed perfectly.
