Total Drama World Race- Broadway Baby
Recap
Chris started the recap, "The Yukon, Canada's frozen wonderland. Here our contestants learned the thrill of ice flow jumping and sled dog racing."
Blaineley continued on "On Team Style, after suffering two devastating losses, this team came swinging with Eva and Jo pulling the sled and despite some setbacks from Owen and Noah including them getting banned from a village. They managed to work together to a first-place finish. On Team Victory, Leshawna began to confront her feelings towards Harold with herself, while DJ cried and slowed his team down big time."
Chris continued on "But on Team Amazon they were a disaster from start to finish. Cody nearly drowned. Sierra saved him, and along with Mickey and Kitty got way off course due to Sierra's affection for Cody. That girl is not right."
Blaineley continued on "You said it Chris, but the biggest blunder came from Sadie who let Alejandro lead her off course and eventually got her tongue stuck to a pole. Too bad we couldn't understand except maybe her BFF, Katie. So, it was Sadie who became the fourth contestant to take the drop of shame."
Chris finished the recap "4 have been eliminated, 44 remain, who will be eliminated tonight?"

(End Of Intro)
First Class
The scene showed Brick, Jo, and Alejandro eating food eagerly in a component with the seats, as Brick cheered out "First class rocks!"
"We're eating the breakfast of champions!" Alejandro noted looking at his food happily.
Jo was the next to comment, "Brick didn't you drink a lot of water before you had this food?"
"Yes Ma'am." Brick stated before his eyes widened. "Make way, bathroom!" Brick yelled out running to the nearest bathroom before he peed his pants.
"Great now that twinkle cadet is not here, I need to talk to you." Jo said to Alejandro, ready to push her agenda.
"Yes chica?" Alejandro said. "What is it that you are wondering?"
"We are bound to lose again, and I am just thinking of who to eliminate from the team that would be the biggest dead weight." Jo explained.
"I have my own ideas on who is the biggest dead weight for the team, here let's say them at the same time, 1…2…..3." Alejandro said.
"Dave." Jo stated excitedly.
"Owen." Alejandro stated. Both looked at each other awkwardly for a second when Alejandro decided to back off. "Getting rid of Dave is fine."
"Glad to see you see it that way." Jo stated confidently.
The camera then panned over to Julia and Jen who were enjoying shoulder massages in first class. "Oh yeah, that's the spot." Jen said in a hypnotic trance.
"This is life, I never want to leave first class." Julia stated. "This place is so cute." Julia said in a fake valley girl tone.
The camera next panned over to the bar section of first class with Bowie and Duncan sitting on stools talking "So it was late at night last season and Gwen was feeling down about the whole Trent situation." Duncan began to explain.
"Uh huh." Bowie said uninterested.
"So I asked her if she wanted to hoist everyone's underwear up the flagpole on the set last season. You should have seen the look on her face, it was like all her sadness was gone for a bit." Duncan said excitedly.
"That's great. Look if you don't mind me asking. Do you have any recent special moments with Courtney?" Bowie asked.
"Of course, there's uh. Something. Just give me time to think." Duncan said, which got Bowie to raise his eyebrows.
Confessional- Bowie
"Yeah Duncan is lying. It is obvious to anyone. He doesn't love Courtney, he loves Gwen, and I am gonna be the one to steer him into breaking up with Courtney. Mainly to cause some extra drama here. What? I'm bored."
Back To First Class
Trent and Noah were shown walking around the first class compartment, "Noah, great idea getting Owen that stuffed bear to calm him down." Trent complimented.
"It is great, but I will probably never be allowed in that village ever again." Noah noted, as he was taking ehat happened to his camera crew to the grave. "At least Owen is sleeping without us having to tie him down."
The camera showed Owen sleeping on one of the couches, before falling over revealing a disturbed Dave underneath. "Finally! Thanks for not noticing I was missing last night!" Dave said as he was starting to breathe again, "Why didn't any of you notice me?" Dave yelled out.
"Sorry Dave." Trent said meekly.
"What am I, Tyler?" Dave yelled out.
Economy Section
As if on cue the scene flashed to the economy section showing Team Victory on one side looking down and defeated. Specifically DJ, Leshawna, Beth, Millie and Lindsay who were all seated together. None of them were happy that 3 challenges so far they had never won a challenge and seemed to be destined for second place. "How are we supposed to win when our spirits are low girls?" DJ asked. "It feels like economy class is our second home at this point."
Leshawna was trying to be optimistic. "Maybe today's the day we win the challenge."
"It would be nice to be in First Class." Millie said. "I would want to relax for a night."
"That's the spirit." Beth said excitedly. "We aren't quitters."
"My BFF is right, we are fighters and winners!" Lindsay said.
"That's more like it. Both of you got fire in your eyes." Millie said.
"Yeah we do, our luck is bound to turn around for the better." Beth said, sounding excited.
Confessional- Beth
"Coming into this season I wanna prove that making it to end last season and winning wasn't a fluke and that I do deserve to be here."
Confessional- Lindsay
"I bought a season's worth of lip gloss and I have only finished two tubes between Beth and I. No way am I going home yet."
Back To Economy Class
The mood was starting to lift up for Team Victory, however Harold approached the group in question and one could tell he was feeling down.
"What's wrong Harold?" Beth asked. "You look depressed."
"I just, I just have a lot on my mind. Gosh!" Harold yelled out walking away, further confusing his teammates.
''What's his problem?" DJ asked. "He's never this annoyed."
"Wouldn't be shocked if it had to do with Ezekiel." Millie observed.
"Why Ezekiel?" Lindsay asked.
"I've noticed he has a certain levels of malice towards Ezekiel." Millie said, as she looked sadly at the ground, wondering why Ezekiel and Harold didn't get along.
Confessional- Harold
"I don't wanna throw a challenge, not at all. I would never do something like that. But I am so annoyed as it's the worst of both worlds. I don't get to enjoy first class and we don't lose in last place, so I have to deal with Ezekiel here."
Other Side of Economy Class
Heather was looking around annoyed. "What is that horrible smell?" Heather asked.
"Defeat, Heather. That would be defeat." Gwen stated.
"Maybe we would have won if you and Emma didn't think it was such a great idea to whip Chase and I." Courtney snarked.
"Ugh, that is not true. I gave you motivation, and besides Sadie cost us the challenge last time. Not me." Heather snapped back.
"Maybe she did, but you weren't any help. Ugh!" Courtney protested in anger.
"Don't worry Courtney next time we lose Heather is done for. I'm voting her off." Gwen stated in front of Heather.
"I'll gladly join you. It would be great if we could whip her off." Courtney protested.
Confessional- Heather
"Whip me off? If Courtney and Gwen think they can so easily dispose of me, they have another thing coming. I just need to suck up to the teammates that aren't those two and prove my worth to the team. They are going down!"
Back To Economy Class
Heather walked up to Sierra, Cody, Kitty and Mickey. Sierra was rubbing Cody's feet to keep him warm while Kitty and Mickey looked on making sure Cody wasn't too uncomfortable. Mickey was worried for his friend Cody's safety "You uh, don't look comfortable Cody, at all."
"Nonsense." Sierra said. "My precious little Cody just needs more warming up and whenever Cody gets cold feet he'll think of me."
"No kidding." Cody said clearly not enjoying what was going on. "But can you please stop touching me? Is it too much to ask?" Cody asked Sierra, even as Sierra remained quiet as she kept giving Cody a foot massage.
"She isn't going to listen to you." Mickey said, feeling sympathy for Cody, but knowing he couldn't do anything about it.
"She never does." Cody told Mickey as he winced at Sierra, who was still in her own world.
Confessional- Kitty
"So, after the last challenge me and shockingly Mickey have decided to be by Cody's side as much as possible, so Sierra doesn't do anything crazy. I like Cody like a brother I never had. I just wish Sierra would know when to back off."
Back To Scene
Heather walked up to them and began the conversation "Hey guys, have I ever said I valued our friendship?"
"Heather, you have only spoken to me 3 times in my life." Cody stated annoyed, "What do you want?".
"Aw thanks Heather, I also value our friendship. Hug?" Sierra asked.
"Saying it should be enough. Actually, Sierra, do you mind getting us some snacks in the break room?" Heather asked, changing the subject.
"Sure thing. I will find things Cody likes." Sierra stated, happily running off.
"What was that all about?" Cody asked, now more confused than angry at Heather.
"Look, Sierra is a problem for this team," Heather said.
"Geeze, tell us something we don't know." Kitty said sarcastically.
"Oh shut it. Look, I do genuinely want to work with you and I plan to prove it." Heather said.
"Why should we trust you after everything that happened during Season 1?" Cody asked.
"I will vote Sierra out along with you guys next time. I am sorry I didn't last time, I was told to vote off Sadie. As for why you should trust me, after someone gets their head shaved and is shunned for most of the second season, it makes you appreciate life a little bit more." Heather stated thinking back to Season 2. "If I do help you guys get rid of Sierra please repay me back." Heather stated as she walked away.
Cody, Kitty and Mickey were shocked at what transpired with Heather especially Cody since he was on the first season with her. "Wow." Cody said to himself. "That isn't like her."
"I uh, I wonder if she's telling the truth." Mickey said looking at his two closest allies as he was unsure as well.
"I mean, I saw the first season and Heather was ruthless." Kitty stated.
"But she could be desperate for allies and Heather looked genuine talking about her head getting shaved. I just don't think I have it in me to vote out Gwen for her." Cody said, looking out the window as Mickey and Kitty looked at Cody with concern.
In another part of the economy section, Katie was shown sulking looking down at the ground. "I miss her so much." Katie told herself.
Confessional- Katie
"Losing Sadie in the game especially so early is one of the hardest things ever and it is all thanks to Alejandro. I don't know how she did it in Season 1 and managed to stay sane. I miss you Sadie!"
Back To Scene
Katie continued to look down at the ground until Ella approached her "Hey is this seat taken?" Ella asked.
"No." Katie said in near tears.
"Oh no. Don't cry. Look, I know you miss Sadie, I do too." Ella began to say.
"She and I do everything together. Being without her is just so difficult." Katie lamented.
"Well I can't be Sadie. But I can be your new closest friend here, if you want Katie?" Ella asked.
"That would, that would be great." Katie said, wiping tears from her eyes.
"Would you like a song to celebrate this joyous occasion?" Ella asked as she began to sing.
"No, no, no!" Katie quickly said. "Saying it's enough, I would love to be your friend." Katie explained as a new friendship on Team Amazon was beginning to form.
Meanwhile with Team Victory
Back over at Team Victory, Leshawna, Jasmine, and Lindsay were all sitting together with Leshawna deep in thought, Jasmine looking at Shawn, while Lindsay was playing with her hair when Alejandro showed up. "Ladies, I smuggled a few things out of first class for you."
"No thanks sweetie. I'm good. My mind is elsewhere." Leshawna stated
"I don't take offers from the enemy teams." Jasmine stated in a neutral tone.
"I also shouldn't, they aren't going too and I might break out in hives- wait OH MY GOSH! Is that a snickers bar? GIVE ME!" Lindsay yelled out and began eating the food in a way that would beat even Owen as Jasmine and Leshawna raised their eyebrows.
"That can't be good for you." Jasmine stated, grossed out by Lindsay's actions.
Alejandro then decided to walk to the common area where Sierra and Heather were getting food or what they could. "Sierra, hi. I smuggled this food out just for you." Alejandro said.
"Well she doesn't want it, we don't take anything from the enemy teams, especially the disgustingly flirty ones. Right Sierra?!" Heather said sternly.
"No thanks, Enemy!" Sierra said half jokingly.
Confessional- Alejandro
"Of course Heather is bonding with Sierra. She is Chris' favorite and if she has Sierra she has Chris! Provided I think I have an idea to get Sierra so unbearable she becomes an outcast. That being said, there's someone else I have my eyes on to target."
Back To Scene
Beth was just walking back from the bathroom when Alejandro saw and gave a slight smirk before approaching her. "Hello Beth is it?"
"Yes, Alejandro." Beth said nervously.
"I smuggled some sweets from first class, I gave most away but I saved the best for last." Alejandro said sweetly.
"Awe, thank you." Beth said.
"If you don't mind me asking, who's the leader of your team?" Alejandro asked.
"Leader? We don't have a leader." Beth explained. "Well Harold tried to but that was almost a huge disaster in Japan."
"Ah yes. Maybe you should lead your team?" Alejandro explained feigning interest.
"Me, why me?" Beth asked as she never saw herself as the leader type.
"Well, you made it to the final 2, and I imagine you wanna step out from Lindsay's shadow like I know you can." Alejandro stated, walking away soon after as Beth looked on as Lindsay walked up to her BFF with a face full of chocolate.
"What did Jalapeno want?" Lindsay asked but Beth wasn't responding. "Beth, is everything all right?"
"I'm uh, I am not sure." Beth said.
The camera panned over to Damien who had a raised eyebrow watching the whole scene unfold.
Confessional- Damien
"Maybe it's just my paranoia. But something about Alejandro screams untrustworthy. Bad vibes. It's hard to explain."
Cargo Hold/Landing For Next Challenge
All of the contestants were in a large raft with Blaineley and Chris wearing life jackets as they began to explain "Take a seat and grab a handle." Chris said
"We're gonna explain the next place we are visiting." Blaineley finished.
"Awe sweet ride dude." Tyler said, looking over at Chris. "What do you think, Lindsay?"
"It's cute, especially being here with you." Lindsay said cuddling up to Tyler.
"Wait, why are you two wearing a life jacket?" Noah asked, noticing Blaineley and Chris wearing life jackets.
"Also how far down are we jumping down from?" Damien asked, as he was scared of what was in store
"Far enough to be safe, besides there are over 40 of you still so we don't have the budget yet. Thanks to Don Strauss" Blaineley explained.
"Don Strauss?" Topher and Scott both said quietly at the same time, with both swearing they heard another person say it, but neither could pinpoint who said it.
"Hit it Chef!" Chris yelled out as the scene quickly shifted to Chef flying the plane pulling a lever that dropped the remaining 44 contestants and the two hosts into the water.
"Welcome everybody to New York City!" Blaineley explained.
Confessional- Lindsay
"New York! New York! Oh my gosh I could buy ten seasons of lip gloss without even trying. Not to mention the fashion! Aah!"
Explanation of Challenge/Pre-Challenge
"Okay contestants gather around. The first part of today's challenge is something we have dubbed Liberty" Blaineley began.
"Or death! Essentially it's a carriage race to central park." Chris further said.
Owen was excited, "I've always dreamed of riding a horse drawn carriage." Owen said excitedly.
"If it's anything like the last challenge, you should be the horse, Owen." Eva said which got a laugh out of some people but a slight frown from Noah.
"Not necessary." Noah said in defense of his best friend.
"If he's not the horse, it's gonna need to be a big carriage for him to ride in." Jo stated.
"Don't even think about making me the horse Heather!" Courtney said, turning to the queen bee who rolled her eyes.
"Relax guys, it's a double baby carriage race!" Chris explained.
Leshawna was looking around confused, "Wait a minute then where are the other baby carriages?"
"Up at the top of the Statue of Liberty. If anyone has climbing gloves be ready you will need them today" Blaineley said which got a groan from a lot of people. Shawn was the only one prepared and put on a pair of gloves.
"It's impressive that we got the space rented out." Topher observed.
"Well, I admire Chris, and his mischievous spirit makes the game more fun." Sierra stated.
"Thank you, Sierra, it's nice to be appreciated." Chris said, unaware of what he unleashed.
"Appreciate. I have appreciated you since you made those cheesy cat movies." Sierra said which made many people laugh.
"Ooh I wanna hear more!" Blaineley said.
"Nope, we have a challenge to run." Chris stated before continuing "Climb up Lady Liberty's crown, once every team member has reached the top two members will retrieve the carriages. Slide down a designated fire pole to the boats waiting just outside."
"Wait a minute when do we uh, go shopping?" Lindsay asked.
"You don't." Chris stated until Blaineley tapped his shoulder. "What!?" he said impatiently.
"Actually, they do go shopping, I forgot to mention last night Don and I had a chat, and he wants some mini rewards, so we reached a compromise. Two people from Team Style and Victory will go into downtown New York at a designated shopping center and pick up as many clothes, fashion items and stuff to buy. Team with the best designs, fashion, and whatever else wins an advantage in the second part of this challenge. Oh, and everyone keeps what they buy." Blaineley explained as many were indifferent to a potential clothes shopping spree while others like Lindsay, Jen, and Katie were excited.
"Okay, since this is really out of nowhere. Lindsay and Beth, you go shopping for Team Victory and for Team Style you will have Jen and Julia shop." Chris explained.
Heather was less than pleased. "What about Team Amazon, we're the team with a bunch of women!?"
"Way to lean into sexist stereotypes." Sky said after hearing what Heather said.
"You guys also finished last and eliminated someone. So, no potential rewards for losers. Part of the compromise. Also, stereotypical much?" Blaineley said.
Confessional- Jen
"OMG! Next to Paris, New York is one of the biggest fashion capitals in the world. Even if I don't win the advantage, I am gonna be in heaven! (squeals)"
Start of Challenge
Everyone sans Jen, Julia, Beth and Lindsay are shown as Chris blew a whistle indicating to begin climbing as Eva, Jo, and Alejandro immediately began climbing the rope with ease. DJ however tried to touch his team's rope and immediately regretted it, "OW! What are these things made of?" he asked.
"Steel wool, tough and firm like the big apple." Blaineley said approaching them.
"Don't worry mate, I will climb first to make the rope not hurt as much." Jasmine said, grabbing onto the rope quickly.
"Wow, she's amazing." Shawn said to himself.
Over at Team Amazon, Cody wanted to step up, "I should go first to make sure it's safe for all the ladies."
"That was subtle." Scott said which got a chuckle from Chase as both were shocked at what Cody was doing.
Courtney however stopped Cody from touching the rope, "I know exactly how to climb this rope."
Gwen walked up to her, not impressed. "You are not going to suggest we belay again, because I will take the penalty after the horrible experience that went on in Egypt."
"Fine we won't do the belay." Courtney said bitterly.
"That's what I thought." Gwen stated, annoying Courtney.
"Why don't we have Sierra figure out." Heather pointed out trying to put attention on Sierra.
"Me, Heather, oh my gosh thank you so much! I thought I knew everything about the original cast, you are nicer than I expected" Sierra excitedly said.
Confessional- Sierra
"Of course, I know that Heather is playing me. I have seen both seasons 50 times. Hello, I am playing Heather! I'm the puppet master here."
Confessional- Heather
"Today's kind of a win-win situation for me. Either A. Sierra leads this team proves her worth and I pick up a good ally to have. Or B. She drives the whole team crazy, and I have someone to point to that the whole team can send home, buying me some more time. Hoping for the former, but if the latter happens. Eh whatever works."
In Real Time
Heather was grunting and going up the rope "No way in hell am I losing this challenge!" she yelled out.
Back on the ground Sierra, Cody, and Mickey were the last ones on the ground with Sierra standing next to the rope "After you." Sierra said next to Cody as he began to climb.
Not a moment later Mickey was also climbing, "I'm going to be right behind you Cody. That's what friends do." Mickey said climbing. "Ow! Ow!" Ow!" he yelled out in pain.
"Ugh, now I don't get the best view in New York city." Sierra said sadly as Cody and Mickey looked at each other creeped out by Sierra's actions again.
"What is wrong with her?" Mickey asked.
"I have no idea, buddy." Cody said as he and Mickey tried to climb at a faster rate to avoid Sierra.
Top Of Statue of Liberty
Chris and Blaineley were standing on the top of the Statue of Liberty "It's been 25 blustering minutes and nothing!" Chris yelled out.
"I have seen more ambition at a paint drying contest." Blaineley said.
"You are bumming us out." Chris yelled.
At that moment Eva climbed up to the top, "Wait, I'm first oh hell yeah!" Eva cheered out.
Jo was right behind her and got on top and rolled her eyes at Eva's celebration until an idea popped in her head.
Confessional- Jo
"I need all the numbers to send Dave out. I doubt Eva would align with someone like that or care if he left or not."
Back To Scene
Jo decided to put her plan in motion, "Hey Eva, now that we have this time to ourselves, I was going to ask you something?"
"Go right ahead." Eva said nonchalantly.
"Have you thought of who to eliminate if we were to lose again?" Jo asked
"Nah I don't really think that far ahead." Eva explained.
"Well, I think we should keep the physically strongest ones here, if you catch my drift." Jo explained to Eva.
Climbing The Statue
Meanwhile Owen was not having an easy time with the rope, "Oh gosh, making me sweat. Oh, come on!" Owen said as he was tied up in a giant knot.
Higher up, Noah, Dave, Tyler, Cameron, Cody, and Mickey noticed where they were in relation to the Statue of Liberty "Look at those." Tyler said, pointing to the Statue of Liberty's chest.
"Dude, that's disgusting." Dave said.
Cody and Cameron, both noticed it at the same time, "Hey what's going on?" Cody asked as he bumped into an unaware Cameron, and both fell in the same place at the same time.
"Woo Hoo! Ten-point landing dudes!" Tyler yelled out.
"There's more to a woman than her chest." Dave began to say as Noah and Tyler looked unimpressed for what he was going to say.
"Wah! Help, we're getting sucked in." Cameron yelled out.
Sierra and Ezekiel, who were climbing their team's ropes, noticed what was going on "I'll save you Cody!" Sierra yelled out.
"I got you Cameron, eh." Ezekiel said. Almost simultaneously both grabbed their teammates at the same time with both Cameron and Cody breathing a sigh of relief. Well Cody did as Ezekiel managed to get himself and Cameron tied up in a huge knot together that was way too intimate to describe.
"Well, that could have gone better." Cameron said.
"Sorry, about that eh." Ezekiel noted looking down. "We're going to be stuck like this for a while, aren't we?"
"Yep. It's okay. It's the thought that counts." Cameron said, trying to stay calm that he was next to Ezekiel in a tied-up rope that was way too close for comfort.
Confessional- Ezekiel
"Shockingly enough dudes, Cameron has become my closest friend here. He's always saying how fascinating I am. Eh. It's just nice to have a friend after how the first season went. Even if being tied together in rope with me on top of him is way too close for comfort eh as neither of us swing that way. Some people here probably do, I just don't."
Top Of The Statue Of Liberty
At this point many members of each team had completed the climb. For Team Amazon the only one missing was Sierra, for Team Style the only one missing was Owen and, while Team Victory had Leshawna, Millie, Ezekiel, and Cameron missing. However, Chris was not impressed. "Ugh, hurry it up. I am tired. I am hungry, I have to pee, and I could use some New York style Pizza." Chris lamented.
"Chicago style pizza is better." Blaineley noted.
As the two hosts began to debate between the merits of two different styles of pizza Jo was getting frustrated. "Any type of lead Eva and I got for the team is gone! Ugh! Thanks Owen!" she yelled out.
Noah however was annoyed at Jo's action, "Owen is doing the best he can." he said angrily.
"Fair enough, but he could be doing better." Jo said, feeling a tinge guilty about yelling about Owen.
Meanwhile the team with the most members not there in Team Victory was struggling the most as Bridgette voiced what her team was feeling "Ugh, well I hope Lindsay and Beth are having an easier time."
Boutique Store
At the mini reward challenge Lindsay and Jen were in a shopping paradise both grabbing as many items as they could, "Oh my gosh Forever 21!" Jen screamed out grabbing clothes off the shelves.
"Ooh this brand of lip gloss is so cute!" Lindsay said, grabbing at least a dozen.
"Ooh Under Armor, Trent would look good in that…" Jen said until she realized what she said looking at the camera. "I meant Tom, we run a fashion blog called Now Trending with Tom and Jen." Jen said looking at the camera.
Elsewhere in the store Julia was looking at the clothes but had a very uninterested look, "Ugh, none of these brands, appeal to my social media followers. Gross." Julia stated.
Beth felt a bit out of her element and what was not helping was that Lindsay was going absolutely nuts in the store looking for clothes and lip gloss. Beth decided to at that point talk to Julia since Lindsay was way too busy to talk too.
"Hi, Julie, is it?" Beth asked.
"It's Julia, and what do you want?" Julia asked rudely, not wanting to deal with someone like Beth.
"Sheesh, just figured I would talk to you." Beth said defensively.
"Why aren't you helping your partner?" Julia asked.
"Lindsay says she has a keen eye for fashion, so I was just gonna leave her to it." Beth explained. "Ah Lindsay, she is an amazing best friend."
"Never mind, I shouldn't have asked." Julia said, looking back at the clothes shelves.
Beth however didn't take the social cue and continued talking to Julia "Hey if you don't mind me asking who's the leader of your team on Team Style?"
Julia was still disinterested but decided to entertain Beth, "Alejandro tends to be the one that leads the team, he has a bit of an ego to him. But I imagine the leader and assertive women are the ones he likes." Julia stated, walking away from Beth as Julia suspected Alejandro had something to do with how Beth was acting.
"Maybe, I should be a leader and be assertive." Beth said to herself.
Back At The Top Of The Statue Of Liberty
Luckily for Team Amazon despite having no members in the boutique store for the advantage they were getting Sierra, the last person they needed to start getting the carriages up the statue.
"Ugh, that is a workout and a half." Sierra said, looking at the ground exhausted for a quick second.
"I'll get a carriage, which is what a valuable teammate would do, Zoey wanna go with me?" Heather asked.
"Sure thing." Zoey said as both ran up to the carriages and for Heather she was trying to make another ally.
Sierra meanwhile ran up to Chris no longer exhausted, "Hey Chris I own every one of your TV appearances on DVD. Even your cooking show 'Keep It Plain with Chris McLean'. Your recipe for white rice is so great. It's so unfair you got canceled after one episode." Sierra stated as Chris was starting to get very impatient as many people laughed at the exchange.
"I was going through a phase." Chris stated, nervously.
Blaineley joined in on the fun, "That must be why Chef does all the cooking."
Zoey and Heather who were getting the carriages couldn't hear the exchange but one could quickly tell from afar what was going on. "Safe to say Sierra is annoying Chris, again." Zoey noted.
"Again? Ugh, I am trying to keep her in the game, and she is making it not worth it at all." Heather said angrily.
"Why are you trying to keep her after what happened in the Yukon?" Zoey asked. "She's crazy."
"Because I like to believe she is Chris' favorite and maybe give our team an advantage, but she is ruining that." Heather said, grabbing one of the pink carriages.
"I am gonna reiterate what I told you a couple days ago. I am willing to work with you, but not if Sierra is involved. She is way too crazy." Zoey stated.
"Would you mind trading Sierra in for working with, I don't know, Topher?" Heather asked as Zoey grabbed one of the carriages until she heard what Heather said and turned her head towards Heather.
"Topher?" Zoey stuttered. "Why-why him? I mean he's nice but-" Zoey kept on stuttering until Heather interrupted her.
"But what? I see the way you look at him." Heather stated with a confident smirk.
"I mean like I said he's nice, but he and I are just friends. I promise you. That being said, I would gladly trade him in for Sierra." Zoey stated as she grabbed her carriage and went racing down.
"Sure, you're just friends." Heather stated, to herself, grabbing her carriage as well and went racing down unconvinced by what Zoey said.
Zoey and Heather met up with the rest of the team "Awesome, we're in the lead!" Topher yelled out. "Great job Zoey!" making the red-haired girl blush.
"Like I said, valuable." Heather stated as everyone on Team Amazon looked excited, they were in the lead.
"Team Amazon takes the lead." Blaineley exclaimed as Chris pushed Sierra over to her team.
"How do we get back down; the rope isn't safe enough to climb down with two baby carriages?" Courtney asked.
"Did you guys forget; I mentioned the fire pole? It's only a 30-story drop" Chris stated pointing to the pole.
"Ladies first. I insist." Cody said meekly.
"I agree." Mickey said nervously.
"Well, if no one else is going to, I'll do it." Gwen stated, grabbing the pole and sliding all the way down and screaming.
Duncan, who was helping Team Style, looked over in concern at Gwen "Is she okay?" Duncan asked.
"I'm okay!" Gwen yelled out weakly as Scott gave Duncan a thumbs up as Duncan was reassured.
"Oh thank goodness." Duncan said to himself before focusing back on his team.
The rest of Team Amazon soon followed with Courtney, Scott, Chase, Emma, Heather, Zoey, Topher, Anne-Maria, Katie, Ella, Cody, Mickey, Kitty and lastly Sierra all falling on the pole as Cody and Anne Maria held onto the baby carriages. Chase cheered excitedly about the experience while Sierra called out "Cody!" she yelled out.
Meanwhile
Back with Team Victory Bridgette and Geoff were getting Leshawna and Millie up the top of the statue as Leshawna laid down on the ground as soon as she was up at the statue, "Hallelujah." Leshawna cheered out.
"Exercise is not my thing." Millie said as she also collapsed on the ground.
"Do we have everyone?" Tyler asked.
"No, we're still missing Cameron and Ezekiel." Bridgette noted before looking down to see that while they were close, they were in a giant knot tied up together. "Quick everyone, pull together at once, they are tied up."
"1, 2, 3!" Brody cheered out. "Pull!"
Luckily everyone on Team Victory managed to get the giant heap pile of Cameron and Ezekiel out of the course, unfortunately they were still tied together. Harold walked up to the two of them and asked, "What happened to you guys?"
"Long story. Is, is everyone here?" Cameron asked.
"Yep, we are, I'll go get a carriage." DJ proclaimed.
"I'll join him." Shawn said following closely behind. "Someone should untie those two though?" Shawn said running off screen.
"(sighs) I'll try." Bridgette said as she began to attempt to untie Cameron and Ezekiel.
"Dudes it's actually impressive you guys got this tangled up." Geoff noted.
"Thanks?" Cameron said, confused if he was getting complimented. "It is really uncomfortable though."
Shawn and DJ both instantly grabbed a carriage each. DJ admittedly was shocked at how Shawn was doing, "Shocked you have that great of precision, Shawn. Where'd you learn to be so agile on your feet?" DJ asked. "I'm impressed."
"Despite my smaller size, I have had a lot of zombie apocalypse training." Shawn began to explain.
Confessional- DJ
"Something people may not know about me is that I always walk on the edge of the curb, never on the sidewalk. Can't risk stepping on a crack and breaking my momma's back. Know what I'm saying? As for Shawn, despite all that zombie stuff he seems like a cool guy, the zombie stuff is crazy. But deep down he seems like a nice guy."
Back To Scene
Team Victory went sliding down the pole next with DJ, Geoff, and Bridgette going down first with Geoff cheering on in excitement. Unfortunately for Cameron and Ezekiel they were next, and Bridgette hadn't completely untied them, and Ezekiel had one arm free which was all he and Cameron could use as they slid down the pole in a freefall. Soon after Damien fell down next as he yelled out, "This is illogical."
After that Shawn, Brody, Jasmine, Tyler, Millie, Harold, and Leshawna all slid down the fire pole with Brody cheering on as the others screamed out in fear.
Back with Team Style, Brick, Jo, Eva, Sky, and Alejandro are trying to pull Owen up but due to him getting tangled up and unable to move himself it was a struggle. "Heave!" Brick cried out, unfortunately Owen just kept hitting his head on the Statue of Liberty's nose until one big pull sent Owen into the nose.
"Oh boy, where am I now? Echo! Oh great, I can't see." Owen yelled out.
"Lovely, Owen is proving to be completely useless today." Eva said angrily.
"Come on, we aren't too far behind." Noah said half assuredly.
"Why is it that whenever Owen's at fault Noah, you always defend him?" Justin asked.
"Oh geeze, he's my best friend. Sorry I have one and you don't, and no, your reflection in the mirror doesn't count." Noah sniped back.
"Whatever dude, if we lose tonight. Owen's out today." Justin said making Noah squirm on the inside.
Pier By The Boats
Team Amazon was in a commanding lead with Courtney and Zoey pushing the carriages, "There's the boat." Courtney pointed out.
"Quick, everyone, get in. We have a lead; we can't blow it." Emma said as all 15 members of Team Amazon began piling in.
"Hit it!" Scott said as Courtney started the boat, but Cody and Mickey weren't secured in, and both fell into the water at the same time.
Mickey was immediately panicking as he wasn't a strong swimmer. "Oh gosh, I can't swim well. Someone hold on to me, please I am going to die!" Mickey yelled out as Team Amazon's boat began speeding away quickly, and Mickey was paralyzed with fear.
Cody was also nervous as he rose from the water, "Dude where's the boat?" Cody asked scared, but quickly recognized Mickey was drowning "Dude, I got you." Cody reassured his friend by holding onto him, tightly. "Just breathe in, breathe out. I'm here for you."
Mickey did as Cody was told and was beginning to calm down, "I probably look pathetic." Mickey said, holding onto Cody.
"Not any more pathetic than me." Cody said which got both to chuckle at their predicament.
"Let's not tell anyone about this whole holding each other thing, right?" Mickey asked. "I mean I don't mind I just, I uh, don't want people get the wrong idea for your sake."
"Yeah, it's just to calm you down." Cody explained. "It's better than being touched by Sierra at least." Cody joked which got Mickey to laugh.
"Thanks, you're a great friend." Mickey said as both Cody and Mickey enjoyed the moment.
"Cody!" Sierra yelled out, noticing that Cody was missing from the boat and also saw from afar that Cody and Mickey were too close to her liking or at least that's what she thought for a second before realizing her thought sounded ridiculous.
Gwen also noticed that two teammates were missing. "Turn around!" Gwen yelled out.
"What?!" Courtney asked. "The boat is too loud."
Gwen however had enough and pushed Courtney off of steering the boat, "Turn this boat around now. I am not leaving a teammate to be New York shark food."
Top of Statue of Liberty
Luckily for Team Style they had managed to get Owen up to the top, unfortunately many of the members were completely exhausted, nor helping was that Owen was still tied up as people like Brick, Eva, and Sky were catching their breath. Dave and Noah luckily weren't tired out as they didn't pull him up, "Dave, help me untie Owen." Noah called out.
"Sure thing, who's getting the carriages though?" Dave asked.
"I can go get it." Bowie offered. "Shouldn't be too difficult."
"Same here." Justin also claimed.
"Get going, pretty boys. We are way too far behind." Jo said angrily.
Luckily Noah and Dave made quick work of Owen's situation, "Done." Noah yelled out, "Everyone head to the pole and get ready for the drop!"
"Sir, yes sir!" Jo said mockingly.
Noah simply glared at the jockette before pulling Owen aside as they headed to the fireman's pole, "Hey big guy, try not to slow us down. People like Eva are pissed at you. Justin said if we lose that you're going home."
"I'm sorry buddy. I didn't mean to get tied up." Owen said solemnly. "I'll do better, I promise."
"We got the carriages." Bowie said as he and Justin decided to keep going and not slow down, unfortunately he along with Justin were going too fast and hit the pole, with the baby carriages left up at the top and went sliding down the pole. Afterwards, Trent, Eva, Noah, Duncan, Dave, Sky, Jo, Brick, each went down the pole with people like Eva, Jo, and Brick enjoying it while Trent and Dave were both scared, as was Noah.
Owen tried to jump into the whole but due to his larger size he was stuck, "Aw man. Hey Al, do you think you can give me a push Al?"
"Sure, thing amigo?" Alejandro stated before angrily grabbing one of the baby carriages.
Owen quickly realized what Alejandro had in mind and was fearful to say the least "Oh great big apple!" Owen yelled out as Alejandro hit him over the head with the carriage and forced him down the pole screaming the whole way down and made Owen lose trust in Alejandro.
Alejandro shrugged at his actions, "Sometimes the most forceful way is the best way." he said right before he slid down the pole.
By The Boats
Cody and Mickey had luckily managed to stay afloat and grabbed onto Team Victory's boat, unfortunately they couldn't hitch a ride in time as Jasmine yelled out "Hit it!"
"Wait, no!" Cody yelled out in fear.
"Hey! Help us!" Mickey yelled out as well before shoving himself and Cody underwater to avoid getting hit by Team Style's boat that was looking to accidentally run them over. As luck would have it however, they managed to start water skiing on the boat for a second with Mickey on top and Cody holding onto the handle until they were hit by a buoy.
"Ugh, I am in so much pain now." Cody said as he and Mickey began slipping to the ground.
"Mommy." Mickey said in pain. "Help me." Mickey added as he began slipping back into the water.
For Team Amazon they were less than thrilled, especially Heather "This is bullshit, we went from first place to last thanks to you Courtney!"
"What? I can't hear you!" Courtney said.
Heather was not in the mood however and walked up to Courtney "You dropped us to last place due to leaving Cody and Mickey behind. You are a horrible leader." Heather said sternly.
"It's not my fault the wimps weren't secured, its their own failure." Courtney said defensively.
"Yeah, that's what a leader acts like." Kitty said sarcastically, annoyed at Courtney leaving her close friends behind.
Luckily Cody and Mickey were easy to spot as Sierra grabbed the former and Kitty grabbed the latter with Sierra distraught "Cody if you were to drown I would drown so we'd always be together."
As for Kitty and Mickey, Kitty simply asked "Are you okay?"
"Actually I am. I can't swim well, but the water helps my legs not look like armadillos due to my eczema." Mickey explained.
"That and you had Cody comforting you the whole time." Kitty said in a teasing tone.
"Hey, he and I are just... friends." Mickey defensively said. "But it was nice to have him as well."
Over at Team Victory's boat the mood was more eager as they realized due to the Amazon's mistake they were in the lead. "Guys, we're in first place." Bridgette noted.
"Wait, I just realized something, this challenge makes no sense." Millie observed.
"Yeah, taking a boat to central park doesn't make a lick of sense. Central Park is in the middle of Manhattan." Leshawna stated.
"Well, we have the next buoy." Millie said before looking over to Shawn who was wearing a protective mask. "Wait, why are you wearing that?"
Before Millie could be answered, Team Victory entered the sewer system grossed out, with Team Style joining soon after and lastly Team Amazon as Heather lamented their situation "I hate Chris every day, and this is further proof of it."
Back at the top of the Statue of Liberty, Chris and Blaineley each had a mini telescope observing the situation as Chris began "Who will survive?"
"Who's taking a dive?" Blaineley asked as well.
"Find out when we return, on Total Drama World Race!" Chris and Blaineley announced together.
Team Victory's Boat
After the commercial break, the show picked up showing the members of Team Victory in their boat as Leshawna looked on in disgust, "There better be a reward at the end of this challenge, some disinfectant, a hot shower. This is disgusting!" she complained.
"Leshawna I just wanna say-" Harold began to say until Leshawna interrupted him
"Not now. Whatever it is, it can wait until I am clean. Clear?" Leshawna stated annoyed at her situation being in the sewers.
"Crystal." Harold said, looking down.
At the driver's component of the boat DJ and Geoff were driving the boat through the sewers when Geoff decided to ask his second-best friend a question "Yo DJ, can I ask you something?" Geoff asked quietly.
"You know you don't have to ask, what's going on with you?" DJ asked back.
"It's just Bridgette and me. It feels like we are on the rocks, and I have no idea what to do man." Geoff said sadly.
"Well I'll think of something to help you, I just wanna focus on driving right now." DJ said, putting his eyes back to the sewer.
Confessional- DJ
"You know, I thought it was going to be great to be on the same team as Geoff like the first season, but all he does is sulk about his relationship with Bridgette. It gets to be a bit much. No offense."
Confessional- Harold
"I was going to talk to Leshawna about the Egypt stuff but it's clear her head is just focused on this challenge."
Back To Scene
All of a sudden Team Victory heard a hollowing moan with Millie asking what everyone was thinking "Is that an alligator?"
Shawn had a petrified look looking around, "Wait there's no way alligators can be in the sewers."
Damien didn't seem too scared "That was just an urban myth. I'm just relieved we are winning." Damien said as the camera showed an alligator popping up behind the team proving Damien's thought process as wrong.
Team Style's Boat
"Did you guys hear that; it sounded like an alligator?" Trent said, looking around scared.
"Relax John Mayer, there's no gators here." Jo said, looking behind them.
Elsewhere in the boat Duncan was sitting by himself looking over at Team Amazon's boat trying to see if he can see Gwen when Bowie walked up to him. "Looking for Gwen?" Bowie asked.
"No, I was looking at Courtney." Duncan quickly defended himself.
"Right, are you trying to convince me or yourself? Oh, and have you thought of any good memories with Courtney?" Bowie asked again.
"No, I haven't, why is it any of your business discussing my love life?" Duncan asked back.
"Because I figured we were friends." Bowie reasoned.
"Well, we aren't so back off." Duncan said, trying to sound threateningly.
"I might, but you need to be honest with yourself, oh and I am not someone you want to mess with." Bowie said walking away.
"The nerve of some people." Duncan said, looking back to Team Amazon's boat, with what Bowie said lingering over his head.
Team Amazon's Boat
In Team Amazon's boat Courtney was driving but wasn't putting her full effort as her mind was starting to wander, Courtney realized that it would be best if someone else took the boat. "Hey Zoey." Courtney called out.
"Yeah Courtney." Zoey responded back.
"Can you drive the boat?" Courtney asked. "My head's spinning and I need to sit down. Not to mention the smell. Ugh!"
Courtney walked over to the backside of the boat and laid down with Emma noticing her distressed state, "Is everything okay?" Emma asked.
"What's it to you? Gonna whip Chase and I and treat me like a pack mule?" Courtney asked bitterly.
"Okay I deserve that. I will say in my defense my anger was more towards Chase. But seriously what's wrong?" Emma asked.
"You said earlier this season you dated Chase before this season started?" Courtney asked back.
"Ugh, don't remind me, it was the biggest mistake of my life." Emma explained.
"Well, if you don't mind me asking when did you know you didn't love Chase anymore." Courtney asked as she was starting to wonder if she was no longer in love with Duncan.
"Wow, I have no one asked me about when I didn't love Chase. I broke up with him after the whole pet store thing, but probably when he threw a jacket on a puddle at the movie theater we went too." Emma explained.
"What's so bad about that?" Courtney asked.
"He caused the puddle and used my jacket without my permission to clean the puddle up." Emma further explained.
"Wow, how long were you with him?" Courtney wondered.
"Long enough to be a regret." Emma said as her hatred of Chase persisted.
Before they could continue, Anne Maria got their attention "Yo, are you two done gossiping? We're here and oh hell no! We're last." Anne Maria said angrily seeing that Team Style and Team Victory got out of the sewers before they did.
Boat Dock
After all the boats hit the dock, Chris, Blaineley, and Chef were standing at the dock with Chris and Blaineley wearing protective masks "Ooh nasty! That's the kind of smell that never goes away." Chris stated while laughing.
Sierra decided to at that moment compliment Chris, "Chris you are such a brilliant commander. That's why you always stood out in your boy band!" she claimed.
"Whoa, pump the brakes a minute. Chris was in a boy band?" Owen asked.
"Yeah, I have a pretty good music knowledge and background, and I never knew Chris was in a boy band." Trent stated as his musical background was actually very vast.
"Moving on!" Chris said trying to change the subject, but Sierra didn't take the hint.
"Nah, Sierra, keep going!" Blaineley excitedly said as Chris glared at his co-host.
"Thanks, Blaineley, it was back in the 80s, he was in Fame Town." Sierra said happily.
Gwen was stunned at the news. "You were in Fame Town?" she said, shocked.
Trent was holding back laughter but had to comment "No wonder I didn't know. No one respects Fame Town in the music industry."
Confessional- DJ
(laughing hysterically) "Oh man"
Confessional- Harold
"How pathetic."
Confessional- Owen
"I can't believe he was in Fame Town, ha, ha!"
Confessional- Courtney
(Laughing) "No matter how my life goes I will never stoop that low!"
Confessional- Chef
(Laughing) "Chris is a loser!"
Back To Scene
Sierra continued on, unaware that now Chris was boiling with anger. "I really admire the way you never let mockery get to you."
"Something she's doing right now unknowingly" Noah said to Owen who were both trying to not laugh too much.
"I have to include that stuff in your unauthorized obituary I have planned." Sierra stated which made everyone stop laughing.
"That's disturbing." Anne-Maria said with her jaw hanging on the floor of what Sierra just said, in shock at what was just said.
"But Chris was born in 1978-" Sierra began to say until Chris interrupted her.
"THAT'S ENOUGH! SHUT THE FUCK UP! PERMANENTLY!" Chris yelled out in anger that scared most of the contestants at that second.
Blaineley pulled Chris to the side and whispered in his ear, "Chris we can't swear on television."
"I don't care, this bitch crossed the line, she needs to pay!" Chris yelled out.
Confessional- Heather
"So, any chances of having Sierra and I working together is out the window. She could have been Chris' pet, giving our team a built-in advantage. I suspect that rat snake Alejandro had something to do with it. At best, she is someone to prevent me from getting eliminated when she herself takes the fall."
Confessional- Alejandro
"I was going to fill Sierra in on how Chris isn't loved enough and get her to blow up her good spot with him. I simply forgot. Luckily, she did it herself. What an idiot. She did the work herself."
Back To Scene
Chris decided to get everyone's attention "Alright, focus people, we have Lindsay, Beth, Jen and Julia returning any second." Chris began to explain before he got even more angry with Sierra.
As luck would have it both pairs of girls were walking back right on time with Jen and Lindsay carrying bags upon bags of items both looking like they were in heaven. "Best 30 minutes of my life!" Jen said happily.
"Alright ladies, it's time to see who bought the best brands, the most and who shopped the best overall." Blaineley announced. "Chef! Go look through the stuff to determine a winner!"
"What, me, why do I have to?!" Chef protested.
"Because you're a neutral, unbiased party." Blaineley explained.
"Stupid show." Chef grumbled to himself looking through both bags. "Lip gloss, lipstick, eyeliner, dress, skirt, wait is this a Drama Brothers T-Shirt Jen?" Chef asked.
"Yeah? It was cheap?" Jen said, trying to sound convincing. Chef was next seen whispering in Blaineley's ear.
"Alright Chef has announced a winner who will get an advantage in the next part of this challenge. The winner is Team Victory!" Blaineley announced.
"What? Why!" Jen said annoyed.
"The Drama Brothers T-Shirt killed any chance of Team Style getting the advantage. I'm not a fan of the little boy band some of you guys formed." Chef explained.
"Ugh, rude." Justin said bitterly.
Jen was feeling dejected and walked up to her team in shame. "I thought I was a fashion guru, but this makes me look pathetic." Jen said sadly looking at the ground.
"Hey, don't feel bad, I like the T-Shirt." Trent reassured her as Jen lightly smiled. "I know I'm biased. But I still like it."
"Okay now it is time for the second part of the challenge, we call it Bobbing for Apples NYC Style." Chris explained.
"Oh, I get it, because they call New York the big apple, right?" Lindsay asked.
"Yeah, hush Lindsay." Chris said, a bit annoyed. "Here's how this works: teams must push their carriages along one of 3 marked paths to Turtle Pond."
"After that two members of each team will bob for some apples in the pond without using their hands." Blaineley also said. "Once they get the apples, head to the heart of Central Park."
"Now folks, what are baby carriages without a couple of babies." Chris asked.
"Ooh, I know this, what are shopping carts?" Owen answered.
"Dude, first of all we are not on Jeopardy, so you don't have to answer in the form of a question, second of all I was being rhetorical." Chris explained.
"I know." Owen said happily as he and Noah snickered.
Confessional- Noah
"Heh. Maybe my snark is rubbing off on Owen! Makes me happy."
Back To Scene
Sierra was once again oblivious and started to annoy him "Oh Chris that is so-" she began to say until Chris interrupted her.
"ZIP IT AND SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Chris yelled out.
"THAT'S IT!" Blaineley announced. "I am hosting the rest of the challenge; Chris go to the plane and calm down. Now! I am doing the rest of the challenge." Chris didn't want to but agreed reluctantly walking away in pure anger. "Okay now each team will have two members of each team riding in the carriages from now until they reach the finish line. Teams make your decisions."
Team Amazon was quick for theirs as Scott answered for his team "Cody and Mickey!" he said quickly.
"Wait why us?" Cody asked, stunned and annoyed.
"Because you guys are the smallest on the team, and I imagine you guys are still shaken up after the whole boat incident." Kitty said, walking up to Cody.
"Oh okay. Thanks." Cody said happily with a slight blush on his face, with what Kitty was saying.
Over at Team Style, Noah volunteered "I'll do it." (yawns) "I could use a bit of sitting down even if it is in a baby carriage."
"I'll join." Dave said. "My arms still hurt from the tower," Dave explained. "Sorry Statue."
"Weak" Jo said quietly to herself, annoyed in her mind how pathetic Dave was.
"Ooh I can do it for Team Victory!" Lindsay said happily. "I love it when people call me baby!"
"Dude, make a mental note of that." Damien told Tyler as he whispered over to him.
"But I don't have a pen." Tyler explained which made Damien facepalm. "Was it something I said?"
"Just call Lindsay baby tonight since you know you guys are dating." Damien explained.
"Oh, now I get it!" Tyler said happily as Damien looked at Tyler in shock at his stupidity. "Thanks bro."
"I'll do it as well since I am the smallest." Cameron said until the camera panned farther out. "But can someone please untie Ezekiel and I already?" he asked in anger as he and Ezekiel were still way too close for comfort.
"I've got it." Beth said. "I actually know my way around knots, even steel wool ones. There and there. You guys are untied. Time for me to lead our team to Victory!"
"Okay folks here's how the paths go, Team Victory gets the shortest path, Style gets the medium, and Amazon gets the longest path. Now what's a race without a little traveling music?" Blaineley announced as the bell went off.
"It's always been a dream of mine to dance in New York City!" Courtney announced happily with Scott in particular being transfixed by her.
"Are we seriously doing a musical number, in almost every episode?" Leshawna asked in anger. "What's the caveat with this one?"
"Simply put, a few of you per team have to sing at least and it is gonna be a game of hot potato, sing a verse and someone else has to step in right away to keep the flow going." Blaineley explained.
"Well if that's the case." Justin said, looking around willing to sing.
"Now hurry up, we have this park for another hour. This doesn't come cheap." Blaineley explained as each team took off.
Musical Number What's Not To Love About New York
Courtney began the song "What's not to love about New York City?"
Scott sang next, "Plenty of things, the place is quite a pity."
Topher continued next "Nonsense, the taxi's go at a New York ditty."
Anne Maria spoke up next, "But come on the crime is high."
Zoey sang next "Girl look at the sky."
Ela was next "You can see the pigeons fly."
Courtney, Zoey, Ella and Topher concluded their part of the song "What's not to love about New York?"
Owen started the next part of the song for his team "The lights are brighter."
Julia sang next, "You can pull an all-nighter."
Trent went up to bat "The fun is funner."
Jen decided to take a crack at it next "The nights are quite a stunner."
Alejandro joined in on the fun next "The bums are bummer."
Bowie sang the next part "I ought to be here in the summer."
Justin sang the next part rather annoyed "The dirt and grime make every ally shine "
Jo continued. "The city is all mine."
Owen, Julia, Trent, Jen, Alejandro, Bowie, Justin and Jo all danced on large piano keys "What's not to love about New York?"
Lindsay started her part for Team Victory's sake. "The stores and the fashion."
Beth walked up to her best friend for her part, "Big shows where they cash-in."
Brody sang next "You can see it in their eyes, they have a lot of passion."
All 3 sang at the same time "It's crazy because the city never sleeps."
DJ stepped in to announce, "Dance break." DJ began to lightly dance tapping his feet with Leshawna walking up and dancing like crazy but very unorganized.
Lindsay however put a stop to it "For the love of dance, just stop Leshawna!"
Courtney, Zoey, Ella, Topher, Heather, Gwen, Sierra, and Katie sang the next part after the mini dance break "Subway trains and the hustle bustle!"
Lindsay, Millie, Beth, Bridgette, Leshawna, Brody, Harold, and Cameron sang the next part for their team, "Cappuccinos while the mobsters tussle."
Owen sang the next part solo "Also pretzel stands for all of us pretzel fans." Owen sang, giving Noah a pretzel.
"Woah, hot, hot, hot!" Noah said out loud as Owen drove away "I don't think this was bought."
A person off screen yelled out "You need to pay for that!"
Owen, oblivious to what his best friend said, started to close the musical number "Come on, what's not to love?"
Lindsay, holding her coffee, repeated "What's not to love?"
Everyone who sang during the song closed the number singing "What's not to love about New York?"
Turtle Pond
Each of the teams showed up at the same time with Leshawna less than impressed "The other teams are here too? I thought we had the shortest path?"
"We did, but your dancing took the longest to recover from (yawns) "Man I am sleepy!" Lindsay said, starting to fall asleep.
"Oh my gosh, look at the size of the apples. They are huge." DJ said scared.
"Meh, I've seen worse." Jasmine shrugged.
"Remember guys no hands or your team faces instant disqualification." Blaineley said.
"I've totally got this!" Tyler said excitedly running to the water before belly flopping hard.
"DJ go make sure Tyler's okay!" Beth ordered DJ, "I'll look over the carriages."
"Right away Beth!" DJ said as he also jumped in the water.
Over at Team Style, Jo was up to the task "I've got this unless anyone thinks they can beat me?" she asked tauntingly.
"I'm up for the challenge!" Sky said, stepping up to her supposed ally.
"Game on!" Jo said as her and Sky raced to one of the apples.
Over at Team Amazon Courtney bragged "My dancing skills during the musical number got us the advantage, now someone else jump in the pond before we lose!"
"Ooh I can do it. Show off the moves right babe?" Chase said standing near Emma.
"Get the hell away from me!" Emma said angrily as she pushed Chase into the water.
"Oh, I can do it. Last year I went to a Chris McLean Fanclub picnic." Sierra began to explain before Scott grabbed her by the hair. "Hey, what are you doing?"
"As fascinating as it would be to hear about you and your little cult. I don't want to lose this damn challenge. Now get in and help Chase!" Scott yelled out before walking back to Courtney and Heather.
"Impressive I will say." Heather admitted.
"Sometimes force is the way to go." Scott said. "That and I doubt anyone wants to listen to her right now."
"I don't wanna admit it as I would have told her to dive in, but that was pretty direct." Courtney said looking over at Heather with a hint of jealousy in her face that she was talking to Scott.
Heather looked over to Alejandro who approached her, "Such a park is so romantic." Alejandro stated.
"Whatever, I know you've been messing with Sierra's head so back off or you wish you would have." Heather threatened.
"I have no idea what you are talking about." Alejandro stated. Before Heather could retort Sky and Jo came back with their apples "I'll see you at the finish line Heather!" he called out as all of Team Style took off.
"Ugh! He is so frustrating." Heather said to herself. To make matters worse one of the people Heather least wanted to talk to Beth walked up to her. "What could you possibly want?"
"Oh, nothing Heather, just wanna say I look forward to seeing you in the Economy section again, you know if you survive tonight." Beth confidently said.
"What's that supposed to mean? Also, since when are you so confident out of nowhere?" Heather asked, more bewildered by Beth's behavior.
"Just showing how a team actually operates and how a leader is supposed to be. It's a shame Alejandro would never look your way since you aren't a good leader." Beth taunted.
Heather was stunned at what Beth was saying, deep down she did feel something for Alejandro, not that she would admit to anyone else or even herself "Why you…"
"Buh bye Heather!" Beth said walking back to her team, however Heather noticed that in both of the carriages for Team Victory, Cameron and Lindsay were sleeping and that no one on Team Victory was watching over the carriages and that's when an idea popped in her mind.
Confessional- Heather
"I would love nothing more than to send that handsome jerk Alejandro out of the game. But sabotaging Beth isn't the worst thing either. She's never gonna work with me, and after the way she talked to me in Central Park she needs to be brought down to Earth."
Back To Scene
Heather leaned over to Scott who was shooting an occasional glance at Courtney, "Psh, I need your help. Grab the carriage with Cameron in it, I'll grab the one with Lindsay and let's swap them with the ones over by that bench." Heather quietly asked Scott as the camera showed a woman talking on her phone with two baby carriages next to her unaware.
"Ooh, I like the way you think Heather." Scott said excitedly.
"Ugh, guys just hurry up, Tyler and DJ have a lead on Chase and Sierra." Courtney said annoyed. Sure, enough both Heather and Scott quickly grabbed the carriages and swapped them around.
"Let the chaos unfold." Scott said as he was proud of his work.
Back in the water Tyler finally got to his team's apple and began blowing it, not making it move at all "Guys, it's not working!"
Damien quickly called out "Use your head!" Tyler did so with headbutting the apple "I guess that works too., even though that's a concussion waiting to happen." Damien said.
"Whatever gets us the win though." Millie noted.
DJ grabbed his apple and began swimming back until a turtle approached him "Ah, evil turtle!?"
"Of course, DJ. It's called turtle pond for a reason." Blaineley explained.
Unfortunately for DJ luck wasn't on his side as he began getting mauled by many of the turtles. "Mama!"
Over at Team Amazon Sierra was showing Chase how to put the apple on his head "Awe, sweet girl!" Chase said happily as the camera cut back to Team Amazon watching the two.
"Go Sierra you got this!" Ella cheered out.
"Hurry up guys!" Courtney called out.
"She is so weird." Cody noted.
"She is but she is our only chance to not come in last place." Kitty said as Cody nodded.
Back over at Team Victory no one was aware of Heather and Scott's sabotage with Jasmine calling out "Come on mates we have a lead we can't blow it."
Tyler first came back to the water completely exhausted as Jasmine took it upon herself to carry him the rest of the way over her shoulder, DJ also came back with his clothes in shreds holding a lingering baby turtle until Brody walked up to him. "Here dude let me take care of it, back in the water you go." Brody said gently tossing the baby turtle back in the pond until a giant turtle ate the baby turtle whole.
"What the hell was that?" Shawn asked out loud.
"Never mind the turtle cannibalism. Let's go guys." Beth called out as all of Team Victory took off, well almost all of them.
Chase and Sierra managed to get their apples into Team Amazon's carriage with Anne-Maria yelling out "Hurry!" Team Amazon than took off for the finish line.
Fountain
Blaineley and Chef were sitting at the fountain "I've been in talks with the producers. They are loving the show and the ratings."
Chef was a little excited hearing the news. "That's great, but I imagine there's a caveat to what you are saying."
"Don wants you to be more involved in the challenges. We're going to a food challenge, and he has some ideas for you." Blaineley was gonna continue before noticing Team Victory approaching. "Hold, here they come."
"We're awesome!" Shawn cheered out.
"Sweet first place!" Harold cried out until they heard a baby cooing and took the apples out of their cart noticing a pair of twin babies. "What the hell?" Harold asked, looking at the babies.
"Cameron and Lindsay regressed into babies." Tyler explained which once again got Damien to facepalm. "What?"
"No Tyler. We got the wrong carriage." Damien noted.
"So that's why the carriages felt a little lighter." Brody said.
"Not all your teammates are here so you have to go back and find them before we can say where you finish!" Blaineley said, shooing Team Victory away.
As Team Victory was running back, Millie asked a question that was on everyone's mind. "How was Team Style, not in first they were at least 5 minutes ahead of us,"
Meanwhile with Team Style
Alejandro was talking to the person Owen bought the pretzels from or rather Owen took the pretzels. "I am telling you we don't have any money and it's a silly pretzel."
"And I am telling you, I don't care, I need to be compensated somehow." the vendor said.
"I can't believe the last 2 countries Owen has gotten in trouble with the locals." Bowie added in disbelief.
"Okay we don't have any money, what can we offer in return?" Trent asked.
"I have an idea." the vendor said, looking at Trent and Alejandro seductively.
Back at Turtle Pond
"Okay who gets a big kiss?" the mother asked after getting off the phone only to discover that Cameron and Lindsay were there and not her twin babies making her scream which in turn made Cameron and Lindsay freak out and scream as well.
Shawn and Jasmine quickly showed up to swap the carriages "Sorry for the inconvenience. Ma'am." Shawn said politely, swapping the carriages as they quickly took off.
Fountain/End Of Challenge
All of the teams were shown running to the finish line with Team Amazon showing up first, followed closely by Team Style, and lastly was Team Victory.
"We lost!?" Harold yelled out.
Blaineley stood up from the fountain and began to say, "Okay before I announce the winners and losers, Trent, Alejandro, why are you guys without your shirts?" The camera sure enough panned over to a shirtless Trent and Alejandro.
Jo decided to explain "Owen took a couple of hot pretzels from a pretzel stand, didn't pay for it so we had to have these two give up their shirts for compensation."
"I'm not complaining." Jen said quietly to herself, which Alejandro interpreted for him, but in reality, it was for someone else.
"Ooh Chef. Get the pretzel guy to sign a waiver so we can use the footage in the final cut." Blaineley excitedly said.
"Stupid no-good show." Chef said walking off.
"Ugh! This is such freaking crap! We can never win a dang challenge. Gosh!" Harold yelled out.
"Harold baby, calm down now!" Leshawna told Harold.
"No, I am not calming down. We have dead weight on this team and so many people screwed up, some more than others." Harold said pointedly looking at Ezekiel which made him gulp.
"Now for the matter at hand." Blaineley began. "Amazon, you get first, Style gets second place, and Victory is sending somebody home, also Team Amazon you guys get a bonus reward."
Confessional- Noah
"Honestly it's a small miracle we got second place, I heard on the way back Heather and Scott swapped carriages, and I am pretty sure Heather would have had it been mine had Jo and Sky not bailed us out. Specifically bailed out Owen. I swear we need another eating challenge as people are starting to look at him as useless. He isn't."
Economy Class
Leshawna and Harold were sitting alone with each other in economy class. "Harold what the hell was that for?"
"I am just so sick and tired of losing." Harold explained.
"I am too, but now due to your outburst you could be on the chopping block." Leshawna stated.
"Can you at least join me in voting Ezekiel out?" Harold asked. "If he's gone, I will be a lot happier."
"I will but I wanna know it's for the game and not personal. Playing personally cost me last time and I am not making that mistake again." Leshawna explained.
"It's both." Harold said weakly.
"Fine, just hang tight and let me get the votes." Leshawna began walking away. "Why must that fool be so charming and frustrating." she said to herself.
Common Area
Millie and Damien were shown talking on one of the tables, or at the very least their conversation was starting "You wanted to talk to me Damien?" Millie asked.
"Yeah, I have an idea on who I want to eliminate, I assume you have no idea?" Damien asked back.
"No, I don't. Everyone on this team gets along. Okay Harold and Ezekiel do not get along at all, so I assumed those two were the options." Millie reasoned until she saw Damien raise an eyebrow. "Did you have a different idea?"
"I do. Look I might be overthinking, but it might be best to keep both of them in the game gunning for each other while we play the middle and stay under the radar." Damien began to explain. "That's why I think it's best for us to take Beth out."
"Beth!? Really, her, why?" Millie asked. Before she could answer Shawn and Jasmine came into the common area.
"Perfect two people I need to talk to." Damien stated.
"Really us? Who are you guys talking about voting out?" Shawn asked.
"Damien suggested Beth." Millie stated.
"Look, I don't wanna see anybody leave this team, but Beth is the best bet." Damien said. "She volunteered to watch the carriages, and she couldn't even do that. Also, I think she could be in league with enemy team members."
"Explain?" Jasmine asked.
"I saw her talking with Alejandro before the challenge. I don't know if he got her to throw the challenge, but she looked unsure and she left Cameron and her best friend when she was supposed to watch them as she assigned herself to watch the carriages. That, and she volunteered to be leader and failed at that." Damien explained.
"That and our team doesn't need a leader right now." Jasmine noted.
At that moment Cameron walked in and yawned. "Hey guys, I heard we lost, so who are we voting for?" he asked.
Jasmine, Shawn, and Millie were about to say Beth when Damien spoke up, "We're voting Harold duh? The dude treats Ezekiel horrible."
"Agreed, well thanks guys. Zeke is feeling pretty down so this will lift his spirits up." Cameron said walking away.
"Now where was I?" Damien asked, but before he could continue Leshawna walked up to the four of them.
"Hey, Harold, Lindsay, Beth, Tyler, and I were wondering if you guys could vote out Ezekiel for us. He's probably our team's weakest link." Leshawna asked the group of four.
"Of course. Harold was right to feel angry." Damien stated as Leshawna walked away satisfied.
Jasmine spoke up, "I imagine I can speak for Millie and Shawn when I say, since when do you speak for all of us?"
"I don't but we need this war between Harold and Ezekiel to continue, but we have to pretend we are on either Harold's side or Ezekiel's side and who are Harold and Ezekiel's closest allies respectively?" Damien asked.
"Leshawna and Cameron respectively." Shawn answered.
"Exactly. They can't know about the Beth plan as I wanna leave some people in the dark. Come on guys, this is fun, this is chaotic. Let's make this game fun!" Damien said excitedly.
"Are you making the game fun in your eyes because the challenges aren't?" Shawn asked.
"Maybe. Look in games like this, I've researched it, being in the middle is the perfect position as it gives you many options and keeps you safe." Damien explained.
"Okay, I follow your logic Damien, but where are we gonna get the votes to send Beth out. There are only four of us and Leshawna said along with herself she has 5 votes." Millie explained.
"That's where the next part comes in, Bridgette, Geoff, and DJ. Also, Brody if Geoff tells him." Damien began to say. "Shawn you're somewhat close to DJ?"
"To an extent, but I don't know if he will vote out Beth with us since you know he voted to give her a million dollars last season?" Shawn explained.
"Oh, he did. He could be a tough nut to crack." Damien said, pondering.
"Is there a better option to do this vote?" Jasmine asked.
Millie spoke up next, "No there isn't. Lindsay would never turn against Beth, if what Damien is saying is true, we need both Harold and Ezekiel along with their closest allies pitted against each other. I guess we could try Tyler?" she reasoned.
"I do wanna say I had no idea Damien you thought about the game this hard." Jasmine said unsure how to feel about him. "If we do this move, we are all in this group to the end agreed?"
"Agreed." Shawn, Millie, and Damien said truthfully in the moment.
Cargo Hold
Bridgette and Geoff were sitting close to the stairs while DJ was walking in circles as Bridgette spoke up "Is there any way we can unpause what was said in the Yukon?" she asked.
"I wanna leave it paused especially since we have to eliminate someone, how are you holding up DJ?" Geoff asked.
"Honestly unsure, I don't want to send either Harold or Ezekiel home." DJ reasoned. At that moment Shawn walked up to them. "Hey Shawn, what were you thinking for this vote as we assume it's Harold or Ezekiel."
"What are you guys thinking?" Shawn asked back.
"It's hard." Bridgette explained "Both are our friends, Ezekiel less so but he didn't screw up as much, but he is just an easy consensus pick."
"Maybe, and I am just throwing it out there, we get rid of Beth." Shawn slyly suggested.
"Beth? Nuh-uh. No way! She is so nice!" DJ immediately protested.
"No, man wait, let's hear him out dude." Geoff said.
"Okay DJ, you're right that Beth is nice. But being so nice and so well liked makes you a threat, Millie told me this morning before the day started that Bridgette and Geoff that was why both of you were targeted in Season 1." Shawn explained.
"I mean true." DJ said reluctantly.
"Also, she was supposed to watch the carriages, and yet went over to taunt Heather, and as great as I imagine it would be for us to get rid of Heather, she's on the other team." Shawn further said. "Look I can speak for Jasmine and myself, when I say we will both have all 3 of your guys back. I promise you that." Shawn said as he walked away.
Confessional- Shawn
"I didn't tell a single lie to those three. Right now, Jasmine is my closest ally but if Damien thinks he can play the middle between Harold and Ezekiel then it's time for me to get my hands dirty metaphorically and play good with both DJ and Damien."
Back To Cargo Hold
Bridgette was the first to speak up "I heard from Leshawna that she along with Lindsay, Beth, Harold, and Tyler are all voting Ezekiel out. Mainly because she told me that with Zeke gone maybe Harold won't be so sour."
DJ was next to speak "I imagine Cameron and Ezekiel are striking against Harold. Where does that leave Millie and Damien?" DJ asked.
"I don't know dudes. This is all so confusing." Geoff said looking confused.
Bridgette began to explain, "It's simple, we have 5 votes on Ezekiel, and either 2 votes on Beth, or Harold while the other has 4."
DJ realized what Bridgette was getting at "Which leaves us 3 and Brody. Geoff will Brody vote with you no matter what you say?" he asked.
"He should dudes. Look, you two decide who to vote for and report back to me. All this gaming is making my head spin." Geoff said, getting out of the cargo hold.
"DJ, do you want my honest opinion?" Bridgette asked.
"Of course." DJ stated.
"I like all three of them, but any of Harold, Ezekiel, or Beth could go and it would make sense." Bridgette stated.
Elimination Ceremony
As Team Victory was walking to the elimination ceremony Damien pulled Tyler behind the statue, "You and I need to talk." Damien said.
"Yeah dude, what's up?" Tyler asked his close friend.
"The plan has changed. The team is voting Beth out." Damien said quietly.
"What no, I can't do that. Not to my Lindsay." Tyler said, about to walk back to the booth.
Damien in desperation whispered in Tyler's ear "As long as Beth's here, she will be in the way for Lindsay's loyalty." Damien whispered quietly leaving Tyler stunned.
Confessional- Damien
"I am not trying to play a scheming or devious game. But with how crazy this game is, I wanna make sure my position in the game is safe so I can focus on the challenges later."
Back To Elimination Ceremony
Chris was standing with a tray of 14 marshmallows, "Alright contestants. I have calmed down now, but the show must go on. It's time to vote."
Confessional- Millie
"Beth is a great girl, but Damien is right, if we don't get her out, she could lead this team to destruction. Sorry girl."
Confessional- Harold
"I am going to enjoy seeing you plummet to the ground, Ezekiel. Bye!"
Confessional- Ezekiel
"If Harold hates me why bother keeping him around eh. Sorry though, I wanted to be friends."
Confessional- Bridgette
"Honestly any of them could go. All 3 of them have pros and cons, but in the end, I decided to go with-
Back To Elimination Ceremony
Chris continued with the ceremony, 12 of you received no votes. The following players are safe. Brody, DJ, Bridgette, Tyler, Leshawna, Lindsay, Jasmine, Geoff, Millie, Cameron, Damien, and Shawn." Chris announced as Harold glared at Ezekiel.
"Bottom 3 please step forward. Each of you racked up a lot of votes. In the end the vote was 9 votes to send home, 4 for another and 2 for another. Safe with 2 votes is Harold!" Chris announced.
"Dang it. Sorry Zeke." Cameron said sadly to himself, feeling resigned to his closest ally and his fate.
"The final marshmallow goes too….
…..
…..
…..
…..
…..
…..
…..
…..
…..
….. Ezekiel!" Chris announced as Ezekiel solemnly grabbed his marshmallow.
The tension was so thick it was hard to feel anything but uneasiness, Harold said quietly to himself "What the hell?" Ezekiel breathed a sigh of relief and walked back to the bleacher. Thankful to still be in the game somehow. Lindsay was in near tears, while Leshawna could sense the rage building in Harold.
"Beth with 9 votes. You have officially been eliminated from Total Drama World Race. Any final words?" Chris asked.
Harold however took the time to speak up, "What the hell happened. I was promised by many people that Ezekiel was going home like he deserves. What happened?" Harold said angrily standing from the bleacher.
"Yo, homie. I am right here, and I do deserve to stay in the game. I bailed us out in Japan, I put my all into every damn challenge we have eh." Ezekiel said, also standing. "Harold, dude, I am gonna ask you point blank, why do you hate me so much?"
"Why do I hate you?" Harold rhetorically asked in a low chuckle, befofre he exploded in anger. "Because you ruined my social standing with everyone during Season 1. I was in association with you after the sexist remarks you made, and no matter how many times I showed off with my mad skills in dodgeball, the talent contest, it was never enough, and I was always an outcast." Harold ranted. "Then you have the nerve at Playa Des Losers to shame me for getting rid of Courtney, something I always regretted looking back on as she didn't deserve that, but instead of being my friend. You isolated me and wanted me to starve! Point blank Ezekiel as you like to say now, fuck off, fuck your fake niceness, and if you ever talk to me again, I will show you I am not to be messed with. Fuck you!" Harold yelled out as the room fell silent as everyone was stunned at Harold's outburst and no one wanted to say anything.
Everyone in the room could hear a pin drop, Beth who was the one eliminated awkwardly spoke up, "I'll guess, I'll be going then." Beth said as she began walking to the exit with parachute in hand, "Do your best Lindsay. I believe in you." Beth said as she was about to jump.
"I'll try." Lindsay said sadly as her best friend soon left. Lindsay leaned over to Tyler, "Babe, how could Ezekiel only get 4 votes. We had 5." she wondered. At that moment Tyler's eyes widened and he realized he messed up.
"I am sure it would be great for you guys to hash things out, after all of that, but Team Amazon has some rewards to pick up so, away with you." Chris said, indicating for Team Victory to leave.
Confessional- Harold
"I have had a lot of pent-up frustration towards Ezekiel since Season 1, and it felt odd to let it all out. I figured he would respond or defend his actions. I just hope my actions there didn't just cost me the game.
Confessional- Tyler
"Crap, crap, shit. I listened to Damien last second and now Lindsay is wondering already wondering how it was only 4 votes. I am bad at keeping secrets. But things were so tense in that room after Harold's meltdown that I didn't wanna say anything. I just wanted to crawl away from everyone after that."
Confessional- Ezekiel
(tearfully) "It's all my fault because Harold has so much anger for me eh. I… I don't look back on who I was during Season 1 fondly at all, I said some truly horrific things, and I can't change that. I like to think I have changed for the better, but actions speak louder than words, and I wanna show Harold that I can be a true friend. If I ever even get the chance to though."
Team Amazon's Reward
Blaineley was now standing in front of Team Amazon with 3 giant apples. "You guys, have at the prizes since you won the challenge ladies."
"Hey!" Cody yelled out in protest.
"Sorry ladies and a crying baby." Blaineley said in a snarky way.
"Hey!" Cody protested while being handed a mallet.
"Isn't it a bit much to have a mallet?" Mickey asked. "You're not the strongest."
"I'll be fine. You worry too much about me." Cody said as he walked up to the first apple and smashed it.
"CANDY!" Cody and Kitty both screamed out running straight for it!
"Hey. leave some for the rest of us." Courtney protested. Cody and Kitty both looked at each other with the former in a slight blush ignoring what Courtney was saying.
Sierra walked up to the second apple, opened it to reveal more apples, "Ooh apples!"
"Oh, this is perfect. Apples are healthy and help the complexion of my skin." Topher said, picking some up.
"Should I thank Chris for the apples?" Sierra asked.
"Sorry Sierra, but after your little incident, Chris doesn't want to talk to you until the next challenge." Blaineley explained.
Heather walked up to the last one "I believe I should be the one to open the last one, all things considered."
"The carriage swap did ensure us at least a second-place finish." Emma reasoned.
"It was actually kind of clever. Pains me to say it but it was good thinking Heather!" Gwen said very reluctantly.
Heather scratched the apple up to reveal the prize, which was a meat grinder. "A meat grinder? You have to be kidding me? This has to be the fake prize"
"Wait hold onto it, at worst it's something to share with the team and at best we use it in a future challenge." Topher said.
Heather looked at her teammates and while many were indifferent, she looked to Zoey who mouthed "Keep it" to Heather.
Knowing she is short on allies, Heather decided it was best to listen to Zoey and keep the grinder "Okay I will keep it around but can someone else hold it. It's gross."
"No problem." Scott said walking up and taking it from her.
Blaineley decided to close out the episode. "What will the fallout be from Beth's blindside? Can Team Amazon keep up this upward momentum and who is the next sucker getting pushed off this plane? Find out next time on the Total Drama World Race!" she announced.

Author Notes
Holy cow this episode took a long time to write. Over 14,000 words. Didn't expect it to be that long, but no regrets.
Now for the stuff that deviates from the canon episode. First of all, the shopping trip scene. I pretty much wanted that to further set up Beth's downfall this episode and to showcase Julia for the first time.
I cut out Alejandro manipulating Sierra into revealing Chris' embarrassing secrets as I wanted her to do it unprovoked.
The reason for there being two carriages was mainly due to the large team sizes.
As for the song, due to the large cast size, I wanted to keep the song, but I decided to add in some extra lines, and not have the song solely dominated by Owen, Courtney and Lindsay.
The pretzel vendor scene. Straight up that was used so Team Amazon could be first and to establish Trent x Jen a bit more and have a bit of a running gag of Owen unknowingly pissing off the locals.
Now it's time for the elimination of Beth. I wanna say I do like Beth. But when writing this season out, I could not think of how to bring her too far in the game, as I needed her elimination to really kick start some other plots I had planned on Team Victory (mainly Lindsay, Tyler, and Damien's). So I decided to eliminate her in New York City. Then came the difficult part in eliminating Beth. I knew I didn't want her to solely be an Alejandro victim as I literally just did that with Sadie. So, I decided instead to twist it a bit and decided to have a few antagonists ultimately cause her downfall, mainly Alejandro, Scott, and Heather.
Lastly if you have seen the new Total Drama season, you guys know that Damien is not a villain far from it and he is definitely not a villain in this story. What I have planned for him, you'll have to stay tuned to find out.
Next chapter we go to Morocco and deviate towards some Ridonculous Race locations with Ridonculous Race challenges spun in a way that they are World Tour challenges. Another blindside happens as the 6th person will be voted out.
Until next time this is TdFan1998 signing off. Have a great day.
