Responding to Reviews:
WarriorTwin: What can I say? They have a bit in common just like I explained that they could be equivalent if you unite the twins into one.
gman5846: Thanks, I hope you don't mind that your favorite character is disfigured, but I already said that I will respect them as much as I can.
LaCuevademisgustos: Some challenges can be recycled from others, but I want them to be more different so that it's worth waiting for this (some are impatient like me). Scott was referring to that to see if there was no real danger.
nickvan2024: Scott is always smart except in All-Stars. I can assure you that AT LEAST there is a reason for Amy to be rude to her sister, because I assure you that in this universe she really loves her.
MisterStevenson: I'm going to answer you this one time just to tell you not to waste your review on something like that, and why are you doing it anyway?
fiacoe3: I don't know what you really mean by that. BUT if you are one of those many users who come to flood the reviews or my private chat proposing to "draw" my writing I tell you that I don't want anything.
Thanks to everyone for your comments (the ones that really talked about the story), I invite you to share this exciting fic with the entire Total Drama community so that everyone realizes the potential of Swap AUs.

"Last time on Total Drama Island..." Chris narrated as the screen showed highlights from two previous episodes, "27 teenagers signed up to spend five weeks at an abandoned camp turned into a biohazardous mutant wasteland, where three teams were formed to clean up most of the environment, though some ended up doing the exact opposite. The Mutant Maggots received the win with a luxurious cabin for lodging, while the Toxic Rats lost and had to booted one of their gang, and that person was Staci, who was not only annoying by telling her unnecessary fictional stories facts that no one cares about, but was dumb enough to take the losers' humiliating marshmallow unprotected and then take the boat off the island"
Chris was then shown at the dock, "That was just a small taste of what you'll be able to see next, right here and right now on Total...Drama...Island!"
(Theme Song plays)
The episode starts in the rustic cabin on the right, in the girls' side where most of the Poison Frogs and Toxic Rats were sleeping in bunk beds, or it was like that until Amy came in and blew her whistle loudly making everyone wake up
"Wakey up, Sammy!" she said to her sister who opened her eyes tiredly, "You're 5 minutes late for our morning warm-up, get moving now before I make you do extra push-ups!"
"Could it be at a time other than 6am?" Sky asked just as tired as the others.
"Soldiers don't rest after that time, you have to be awake to keep energy for any threat"
"Threat my crap! I need my beauty sleep" Sugar said annoyed, putting her pillow over her face, "Nothing will make me wake up so early..."
"Attention all losers in the stinky cabin!" Chris called out from the speakers, "Report to the Mess Hall if you don't want to miss your breakfast!"
"Scrambled eggs, here I come!" Sugar shouted as she shot out of the cabin
Already inside the Mess Hall, the two teams lined up to get their breakfast from Chef Hatched, and when they saw it, it didn't look appetizing at all.
"Can't you have any sides with this?" Dave asked as he looked at his tray
"I'd rather avoid carbs" Scarlett told him as she walked past him, "Have the decency to at least try it."
Dave tried to listen to her and took a spoonful of his porridge, but spat it out as soon as it entered his mouth, "Ok, I've tried it, and it's clearly not for me...". He walked over to a trash can when he suddenly jumped when someone yelled at him from behind
"YOU, SKINNY BOY!" Chef yelled from the counter, "What do you think you were going to do?!"
"Uh... I was just going to throw away a fly that landed on my delicious porridge, that's all."
"You better, because if I see you wasting my cooking, I'll waste you..." Dave gulped before sitting down at the table next to his teammates.
Meanwhile, in the dining room of the luxurious cabin on the left, the Mutant Maggots were enjoying their self-made breakfast more, which consisted of eggs and bacon, pancakes, and pulp-free orange juice.
"This is the best breakfast of my life!" Mike said as he chewed, "Let's not lose again!"
"That's right, I can get the best quality protein here!" Lightning bit into one of his sausages, "It makes me feel strong and above all, smart."
"This reminds me of one of my regional academic decathlon team trips" Leonard said as he calmly sipped his juice, "I told them, 'you must eat well if you want to be like me at regionals, because if we win this round, we'll be the most well-known students in the institution!'"
"That's very inspiring, Leonard!" Zoey said, quite impressed, "I hope I can be like you when I go to medical school."
"Lightning doesn't understand how you got this far" the mathlete said, tapping the boy's shoulder, "But still, you deserve my sha-respect!"
However, Jo watched jealously from behind.
Confessional (Jo):
"What does buck teeth think he is?" the genius girl said, "I mean, I also brag about my IQ like me, but I never bragged about any contests...because I haven't won any, but I still have to know if he has a trick up his sleeve!"
End of the Confessional
"I've heard about you, Leonard" Jo said as she walked over to him, "I know you like academic declatons, so why don't we play something like that? Now...five seconds, the atomic number and weight of Iron?"
"Uh..." Leonard got nervous
"26 and 55.85!" Jo said, "Ha, who's faster now?"
"That didn't seem fair at all" Mike said
"Actually, I wouldn't like to compete since I wouldn't like to brag about my intelligence so much" Leonard said, "So I decided to respect your self-esteem so that no one would feel hurt or offended"
"Aww, how thoughtful!" Zoey said
"Give a round of applause to the most respectable player on the team!" Lightning exclaimed as he and the others at the table applauded, causing Jo to leave the dining room rather upset.
Meanwhile in the woods, Sam was wandering around, taking pictures on a small travel camera, capturing anything that came his way, even a butterfly.
Confessional (Sam):
"If this was another one of those tourist attractions that Dad talks about, we would have left already" he said, still holding his camera, "But the good thing is that I can stay for more than a month! I'll need a bigger memory for my camera"
End of the Confessional
At that, the tourist's stomach started to growl, "Damn, I forgot the breakfast..." he groaned before starting to sniff the air, "wait, is that... chocolate?". He peered further until he noticed a half-open chocolate bar on the ground, inside the circle of a rope, but for some reason Sam didn't notice that last bit, "Is that an expensive brand chocolate bar in the middle of the woods?". He felt his stomach growl again, "I don't know, my mom says not to eat things on the ground but, I'm alone, I'll take advantage!"
He then launched himself towards the bar, but was suddenly carried into the air when he stepped on the rope, which wrapped around his foot and left him hanging upside down. He noticed that the bar was still on the ground, until a mutated bald squirrel came and took it away, but not before mocking him in the face.
"Well, this sucks..." he moaned before freaking out when he noticed a gun pointed at him, then the person carrying that gun lowered it and looked at him carefully, taking off his sunglasses and revealing herself as Dakota.
"Uh, are you okay?" she asked, frowning, although Sam only looked at her with joy and excitement.
Confessional (Sam):
"Another good thing about staying here is being able to meet new people" he said, "And the best thing is, forming friendships for more than two hours."
End of the Confessional
"My, my, my name is, uh, Sam" he said, half-short and nervous, to the blonde, "Your name?"
"Dakota Milton, we've already been introduced" she said, still looking at him strangely.
"W-Would you help me down?"
"Sure..." then she pointed her a NON-FIREARM gun at the branch holding the rope, and fired, breaking the branch with what seemed to be a plasma shot. It took Sam seconds to get up.
"Wow...is that a gun?"
"A plasmicus rapidus, family brand"
"They let you use that?"
"Pfft, obviously, I'm a Milton" she smiled
The speakers were heard activating, "Attention, early campers, report to the small cliff in 10 minutes!" Chris warned.
Later, the 3 teams had reached the top of the small cliff in the middle of the forest clearing, with Chris waiting for them with a large spinning wheel next to him.
"Welcome, bright young minds" Chris greeted with a small smile, "That's right, I named you that because today's challenge is to prove your IQ in a trivia challenge called 'Laser Quiz'!"
"Nice, a challenge that plays to my greatest strength" Jo said smilingly.
"Hey, losers!" Lightning called out to the other teams, "Get ready to lose, because my team has me, sha-me, the smart guy Jo!", the mentioned looked at him with a glare, "And our academic decathlon winner, Leonard!" he took the boy by the shoulders, "The three of us will crush this challenge!"
"Yeah, I guess," Leonard said, looking around a little nervously.
"Why is it called 'Laser Quiz'?" Dave asked.
"Oh, I'm glad you asked," the host smiled again, "Oh, Snader-Izzy!"
That's when everyone saw Izzy, still mutated, swinging through the trees with webs shooting out of the tip of her rattle tail. She then walked down behind them to leave a small table covered by a blanket, which she removed to reveal a small cage on the table where inside were three mutated squirrels growling angrily, scaring some of them.
"Before we start with the rules, I need a volunteer from each team."
"Right here!" said Jo before anyone else on her team, stepping forward.
Confessional (Jo):
"Whatever he offer, I'll go," she said, "I won't let Buck Teeth take all the glory."
End of the Confessional
"Oh, I want to participate!" said Ella raising her hand.
"No, that's not true!" protested Sugar, "I said that first!"
"Not really..." Cameron said before standing behind Rodney when Sugar answered him.
"Shut up, farmer kid!"
"The ones that are going to participate from what I see are Jo and Ella" said Chris, "Any volunteers from the Frogs?"
"Chris, someone's in trouble!" Izzy called as she pulled a squirrel out of the cage, who looked dizzy and sick, "This little one doesn't seem to be doing too well..." she sniffed at it, "I think it ate chocolate, some expensive and delicious brand, but not healthy for it diet"
"Damn, I wanted three lightning-shooting squirrels, not two!" Chris complained before looking angrily at the others, "Who was the one who decided to feed the wildlife?"
Sam and Dakota looked at each other
Confessional (Sam):
"I knew she was going to get blamed, so I did what a good friend would do" he said, "I accompanied her in the punishment, so the two of us would bond more"
End of the Confessional
Before Sam could speak, Dakota pointed at him accusingly.
"It was him!" she exclaimed in front of everyone, "I saw him do it myself!". That's when Izzy shot a net at Sam, leaving him tangled like a roll.
"You're right!" Izzy said to the blonde, "Tourists are the main culprits of environmental negligence"
"Good job, Izzy" said Chris, "Now take Sam to the other two volunteers, he needs punishment for what he did"
"W-what exactly are you going to make us do?" "Sam asked as he tried to get out of the net that had him trapped"
"I'm glad you asked again...". At that moment everyone saw outside the cliff an intern floating with three balloons tied to him, the intern was thin, with brown hair and wearing a blue-green hat. "Each volunteer will float in the air in the middle of the cliff by means of three balloons, in the trivia, if their team answers well, the balloons will remain intact; If he answers wrong...Izzy, demonstrate!"
"Izzy, we're friends!" the floating intern pleaded towards his mutated partner, "Please don't do this to me!"
"I'm sorry, Ezekiel, but it's my job" she replied with a shrug before hitting the cage hard, causing the two squirrels to react by shooting beams from their eyes. These hit the balloons of the intern named Ezekiel right on the balloons, bursting them and causing him to fall down; a splash and several savage bites were heard.
"Toothy and robust piranhas!" the intern was heard screaming in pain.
"If you burst all three of your balloons, your team is out" Chris explained the challenge again, "So you better pray that your teammates are smart enough to get you out of this mess.
Later, the three team members were now just like Ezekiel, tied together with three balloons that made them float in the air
"Well, it's not that bad" Sam said as she waved her arms to get up, "It reminds me of that fun retro game"
"Great..." Jo said sarcastically, as she watched Ella float back and forth in high spirits
"Now, for the challenge, one member of each team will step inside the rug" Chris pointed to three rugs, each with a team color, "I'll ask those players wisdom questions based on what lands on the wheel" he pointed to the spinning wheel beside him, "The picture it say will be the topic of the question, the team with the last player left with the balloons intact will win the challenge; now, decide who will go first in this round"
"Come on, Leonard, we know you can master this!" Mike encouraged the boy.
"Uh, maybe I should when we lose two balloons" he suggested somewhat nervously, "I prefer to save my intellect as the last item"
"Oh, I could go" said Zoey, "I've been paying attention in school"
"Go for it, Red" Anne Maria supported her, "Show that girls rule!"
"Ok, who's in?" asked Brick towards his team, "I may be very good in sports, but not so much in academics"
"Wow, you became a leader without even being that smart?" Dave said somewhat sarcastically
"Dave!" Sky scolded him
"I won't tolerate that attitude, partner" scolded Brick to the indie boy, "If you feel so smart for saying that, why don't you go first?"
Dave noticed everyone staring at him so he could only say, "Fine..."
Confessional (Dave):
"I don't really like the people on my team" he confessed, "However, I don't want to get booted out so soon either, I came here to win, so I'll have to be a little more...flexible"
End of the Confessional
"Move aside," Sugar said, stepping forward, "If Miss White goes first, I'll answer the questions first."
"What are you talking about? I haven't approved that yet!" Amy said angrily.
"Oh, nonsense, a true beauty queen has three qualities, beauty, intelligence, and talent; and I have all!"
"Okay, you three stand on your team's rug" Chris said to the first three volunteers, who positioned themselves on their respective rug, "Okay, now that everyone is ready, let's spin the wheel!" .He spun the wheel until the arrow stopped on the image of a red cross, "The topic is 'medicine'!"
"Oh, I know a lot about that!" Zoey said excitedly.
"Yeah, you can tell, Dave said, looking at her.
"Here's the first question..." Chris began to read it from some cards he had, "What was the greatest invention in medicine?"
"Vaccines!" Zoey quickly replied, "Thanks to them, we have babies and elderly people in good health, and anyone who says otherwise is someone really unhealthy."
Confessional (Shawn):
"Unhealthy, huh?" he said a little annoyed, "Well, what's so healthy about someone injecting you with a thin metal that can transmit a substance into your blood at a high speed?...At least from what I've researched, I haven't been vaccinated for a while, and I'm still fine..." then he sneezed loudly.
End of the Confessional
"That's right, now second question..." Chris continued, "What is gastritis?"
"That's very easy, its name says" she said, "It's the excess of flatulence that humans have from eating so much broccoli, I usually don't do it, unless it's to present an extravagant talent"
"Ewwww!" some girls and boys moaned in disgust.
"One, gross, and two, wrong answer!". Izzy hit the cage again and made the squirrels shoot lightning bolts at one of Ella's balloons, popping it. The Asian girl squealed in fear as she tried to stay in the air, away from the lake of piranhas. "Too bad, Sugar, not so much, go back so one of your other teammates can try."
Confessional (Sugar):
"It's a shame I lost," she admitted, "But at least it was worth scaring that Ella girl a little, it'll teach that girl not to get ahead of me."
End of the Confessional
"I'm in!" Rodney said, standing on the carpet as Sugar left, "I don't usually read non-literary texts, but I'm sure I know at least something."
"You'll get your turn soon, Rodney," Chris said, "I want to ask Dave a question first, who hasn't been able to answer any."
Dave winced at this.
Confessional (Dave):
"My strategy was to lay low and let the other teams fail" he admitted, "I guess that didn't work."
End of the Confessional
"Here's the question, a medication that can help the anxiety?"
Dave blanked out, not knowing what to answer, and it looked like he was suffering from anxiety himself as he continued to say nothing.
(Commercial Break)
Dave still didn't speak, but after a while, he gulped and said, "I don't know..."
"I don't remember that 'I don't know' was a medicine" Chris said
"I mean I DON'T KNOW!"
"Woah, calm down, dude, it's okay if you don't know something as simple as that, but keep in mind that your team is going to remember you for it, and they have one less balloon". The squirel lasers burst one of Sam's balloons, which also made him nervous
"What was that?" Sky complained to Dave when he approached them
"Hey, I said I didn't know, it didn't matter what I said," he replied, rolling his eyes.
"At least try a little harder."
"Yeah, I'll do that...next time."
Confessional (Sky):
"One thing I don't like about teammates is the arrogant and idiotic ones" said the theater student somewhat angrily.
Confessional (Dakota):
"I honestly don't blame Dave for not knowing the answer," said the heiress holding a cell phone, "I surfed the internet and those medications have really weird names...what? My daddy gave Chris something so he'd give me permission to bring my cell phone, what do you think? I'd spend a whole month without internet?"
End of the Confessionals
"I'm next" Topher said stepping forward, "If you don't mind"
"No... do it, I know you can do it" Sky replied looking at him lustfully, and Dave rolled his eyes again.
"Alright, to make it more dynamic, let's spin the wheel..." Chris said before spinning the wheel again, this time landing on the image of a globe, "The topic now is 'geography'! First question, 'in which country does the tower with the greatest aerial view of the world reside?'
"That's easy, the CN Tower in Canada!" Beardo said, "It's one of the best constructions I've seen, 553 meters high and without cables that..."
"The question wasn't for you, it was for Zoey! But since you said it and that's not fair, your team loses a globe...". Jo's first balloon pops, as she and the other team members below glare at Beardo, who frowns in embarrassment.
Confessional (Beardo):
"I just wanted to express my love for architecture..." he said looking down sadly.
End of the Confessional
"Alright, it's time for Lightning to answer!" the mathlete spoke as he stood on the rug, "Give it your best shot!"
"Okay, how about this?" Chris said as he looked over a question, "'In what country does the Eiffel Tower reside?'"
Beardo was about to speak but was silenced, Lightning put his hand on his chin, thinking, yeah, thinking.
"The Eiffel Tower, huh?" he said
"Come on, it's not difficult!" Scott complained about him, but he was also shut down.
"I'll give you a hint" Chris said, "In that same country there are several white-skinned 'clowns' who make it look like they're doing something, but you can't see them doing it"
Lightning suddenly snapped his fingers, "Ha, that's an easy one, even a baby can tell...it's Germany!"
His entire team stared at him, mouths agape, Scott slapped himself in the face. The squirrels' lasers shot out Jo's second balloon, leaving him with only one, and she wasn't happy at all
"Germany?! GERMANY?!" she exclaimed angrily, "Have you never gone out in your life, you little..." she started to blurt out several words that were censored
"Hey, calm down, it was just a mistake, bro!" Lightning told her, which made Jo only scream angrier.
Confessional (Lightning):
"There are some people who don't control their emotions..." he said
End of the Confessional
"Well done, silly!" Scott mocked the mathlete when he returned to them.
"Whatever...I just, uh, wanted to give Leonard some space..." he pushed the aforementioned forward, "Come on, champ, you can do this!"
"Blow away the competition, honey!" Anne Maria encouraged.
"Uh, yes, I will..." Leonard said worriedly as he walked to the rug.
"Since there weren't two answers in a row, we'll change the topic" Chris said, "To a slightly easier one."
Leonard sighed in relief, however that was noticed by Jo from the air.
Confessional (Jo):
"Hmm, why would a three-time academic decathlon "champion" relax knowing that the questions are going to be easy?" she thought, "No self-respecting genius would feel that way, something smells fishy..."
End of the Confessional
The roulette wheel this time landed on a flower image.
"'Botany'!" Chris announced the new topic as he read the first question, "What are the three most basic ways of classifying plants?"
"My father taught me that one" Topher replied, "They are classified by size, reproduction, and man's intervention."
"Right! You seem to know a lot about that, Topher."
"What can I say...coming from the country gives you knowledge about the creations of the planet, and not just plants". He looked at the other girls with a seductive look, which made some blush, Dave rolled his eyes at this, again.
Chris read another question, "Who is known as the father of botany?"
"Oh, it's Theophrastus!" Rodney replied.
"Right" the host looked at Leonard, who was feeling nervous, "How about I ask you a question, know-it-all? What are all the kinds of plants there are and their characteristics?"
"That's unfair even to him" Topher told him, "It's a trivia quiz, not a biology test."
"I was starting to like you, Topher," Chris said feigning pity, "But that's not the answer...". The squirrels popped Sam's second balloon, leaving him with only one.
"But I was just questioning you!"
"I guess there aren't schools in the country side where they teach you that, right?"
"Pfft, you smug idiot," Topher said as he stormed off.
"Look who's talking" Dave muttered.
"Did you say something?"
"No, nothing..."
"I'll go!" Sky said as she walked to the carpet, "And don't worry, I'm good at my class!"
"Chris, I want to answer another question!" Rodney asked.
"That's it, Rodney, keep it up!" Jasmine encouraged the librarian, who when he heard her and looked back, looked at her as if she were an angel.
Confessional (Rodney):
"I haven't had many female closenesses in my life, so... sometimes I feel attracted to any girl who flatters me"
End of the Confessional
"Okay, Rodney," Chris said, reading a question for him, "Which flower is pink in color, floats in the sea, and is known as the Sacred Lotus?...Rodney? ...Rodney?"
The boy was distracted until he came to, "Uh, yeah, it's...Jasmine!"
Confessional (Jasmine):
"Me?"
End of the Confessional
"Well, Jasmine is a flower's name too," Chris said, "But not the one I was talking about, wrong answer!" The squirrels popped Ella's second balloon, now leaving the three floaters on each team with only one balloon, Rodney groaned as he turned away in embarrassment.
"Well done, mammoth" Amy scolded, "I guess someone intellectual enough like me should go next."
"I guess I could try it, I know a lot of things around my house," Cameron suggested.
"Please, you couldn't even use a cell phone" Sugar scoffed
"Of course...what's a cell phone?"
"Enough arguing," Jasmine said, "We need someone to...B, what are you doing?" She and the others noticed the music fan standing on the rug.
"He doesn't even talk!" Amy protested, "He'll make us lose!"
"He, I guess it won't be a hard road after all" Leonard muttered.
"Not so fast, smart boy" Chris said, "Time for one last spin of the wheel...". He spun the wheel and it landed on the picture of several numbers, "'Math'!"
"Now that's hard" Sky said, "We're not human calculators, you know?"
"I know, so we're going to change the game a little...", the Chef dragged three blank whiteboards, "Each one of you will have to solve a fixed math equation, if you do it right, you win! If not, I hope your partner knows how to swim"
The three players who were active now approached their respective board, took the chalk and saw that there was a rather complex equation on top.
"You have 2 minutes, not too much time to think too much" the host pulled out a horn, "On your marks, get set, mark!", he blew the horn loudly.
Just like that, B put on the headphones and started marking on the board, Sky did too, although she looked a bit nervous. However, Leonard hadn't marked anything, and just stared at the blank board, shaking with nerves.
"Come on, Leo, you can finish it in seconds!" Lightning encouraged
"No...I can't" he said between stutters.
"Why not? You said you won THREE decathlons!" said Anne Maria
"W-well, the truth...that...that...that was a lie!". Everyone gasped, "I lied mostly because I was just a loser who only liked role-playing games, I thought they'd value me more if they thought I was smart..."
Confessional (Jo):
"Ha, I knew it!"
End of the Confessional
"What does that matter?" Mike said, "You can do this, just believe in yourself!"
"Bro, are you serious?" Scott asked incredulously.
"My mom always told me that..."
So Leonard looked at the chalk, then at the board, and with a determined look he started to mark on the board, his team started to cheer him on. A minute passed until the horn sounded again and Izzy used her webs to snatch the chalk from each one.
"Time's up!" Chris said, "Now let's see how you did...". He approached to B's board first and smiled when he saw it, "Well done, B, how could you concentrate so much?", the mute boy put his headphones on speaker, playing an eighties song, "Good taste!". Then he went to Sky's board and examined it, "How's school going?"
"Nothing special, but I'm doing well" Sky answered a little embarrassed.
"Well, not bad"
"Really? I got an A?"
"No, I said 'not bad', I mean, it's still a mediocre piece of work, decent but nothing special...", the student glared at him as he moved on to Leonard's board, "Now we go to the great Leonard, or should I say, the FAKE Leonard!"
"I deserve it" he admitted embarrassed.
Chris looked at the board carefully, "You know? Even if you don't know anything, you managed to do pretty well"
"Wait? I passed?"
"NO, I meant your effort, what you did was totally wrong, so, Izzy..."
The squirrels popped Jo's last balloon, causing her to scream as she fell into the lake with a loud splash, just as she could be heard moaning as the piranhas bit her.
"Sky, even though you didn't stand out, you did something with more substance than Leonard," Chris told her, "But the one who did the equation correctly and won the luxurious residence for his team, is B of the Toxic Rats!"
The aforementioned team cheered happily, as some high-fived each other with a satisfied B
"While you, Mutant Maggots, will be the ones going to the elimination ceremony tonight..."
And so it was, at dusk, the Mutant Maggots walked down the path to the campfire, looking on with concern. Soon everyone sat down when Chris came over
"Welcome, Maggots" greeted the host, "First a note, due to some producers complaining about the 'decision' of the talkative nerd Staci, we have removed the toxic marshmallow of loserdom, BUT the loser will still leave in shame, since he will not receive a marshmallow, which will mean that he will be out of the game and will not be able to return... ever!". Some looked at each other nervously, "Before that, I want to hear Hatched talk about the flops of this day..."
"Beardo, you opened your mouth when you shouldn't have" said the Chef, "Which cost you one of your team's three chances". The boy with the afro hung his head in shame, "Lightning, you also lost an opportunity when you answered wrong a question that is even easy for a preschooler"
Confessional (Lightning):
"Don't blame me for that, France has similarities with Germany" he exclaimed, "For example, the pretty girls, like that Sky, that hat she's wearing is surely from Germany"
End of the Confessional
"Jo..."
"Okay, what did I do?!" she complained, having several bite marks on her clothes, hands and hair, "I couldn't do anything while Germany Lover ruined everything!"
"Exactly, but you insulted him with strong and hurtful words, that's not what we want in a family show"
Confessional (Jo):
"What's so familiar about this show? We could die at any moment from pollution, it's not a cartoon!"
End of the Confessional
"And Leonard...", the aforementioned wanted to say something but Hatched interrupted him, "You pretended to be a super genius with a great academic record, you should be ashamed of yourself!"
"Well, those were great proposals for the boot" said Chris, holding a tray with marshmallows, "It's time to feed the mouths of those who can stay... Scott!"
The redhead caught his marshmallow with a mean smile.
"Shawn!"
The conspiracy theorist was startled when the marshmallow fell on his head.
"Zoey, Anne Maria, Mike, Beardo and Jo, you're safe!"
The aforementioned received a marshmallow, the ones left without one were Leonard and Lightning respectively, and they didn't look calm at all
"The not-so-smart genius who will stay for another day is..."
...
...
...
...
...
"Lightning!"
"Sha-Bam!" He exclaimed happily, eating his marshmallow when he had it in his hands.
"Leonard the fraud, it's time for you to pack up your fake diplomas" Chris mocked as Leonard just stood up and turned to look at his team.
"First of all, I want to apologize" he said embarrassed, "You deserve someone better and smarter, someone like Jo"
The aforementioned smiled while Lightning looked at her jealously. That was how Leonard had no choice but to walk down the dock and embrace the boat that was waiting for him to leave the island.
Confessional (Jo):
"Well, well, I guess there's only room for one genius on this island, and that's me" she said proudly, "And that will be proven when I dominate this game"
End of the Confessional
"And so a chatterbox and a liar left us, who would have thought?" Chris spoke to the camera, "What kind of loser will be next to board the Boat of Losers? Find out next time, here on Total...Drama...Island!"
Final Comments (Leonard):
"Well, that was the lie, I'm not really proud of it, I mean, pretending to be a scholar of things you don't even know well must be very difficult; the good thing about this is that I can now be someone I am and find new friends who play with me, although I don't know if they want to be around a liar...", the boy looked at the horizon as he sailed across the sea, "When I get back home I'll burn that physics book I have and buy the latest edition of Dungeons & Dragons... hey, that doesn't seem like a bad idea".

Autor's Note:
Good morning, I hope you enjoyed this new chapter (I also hope you get used to these weekly posts... at least for two more chapters)
This time we have a less active and a bit calmer challenge (except for those who had to play Ballon Fight in real life). It's clear that I chose this type of challenge to prepare for the eliminated person of this episode, Leonard, and unless you haven't read the auditions, you'd be surprised by the fact that he was lying the whole time.
As in the beginning before every second challenge, we have character interactions, there will be more of Sam and Dakota, although not in the way you expect (especially since I'm their biggest fan). Dave is still a bit apathetic, though he knows better than to overdo it, and Jo and Lightning are proving that despite being "nerds" now, they still have their essence
Next week, our contestants will get wet to participate in a crazy fishing race, full of disgusting bait and overgrown fishes. Have a great month!
