User blog:TDFanatic52/Total Drama Wildclaw Island Episode 9- Benefiting Out of Misery

 Remaining Contestants 



Recap

CHRIS: Previously on Total Drama:

The contestants had their own games swayed big time when yours truly aired private conversations and confessoinals for the challenge. The Hawks found out the reason why eye candy man Justin left day one and Rodney had his heart crushed when a private conversation Anne Maria had was played out.

Needless to say, Hawks won immunity sending the Eagles to lose one of their own. In a valiant effort, Jo tried to be a hero to get rid of Anne Maria to heal a broken heart. Talk about words that should never go in a sentence together. Jo a hero? That's hilarious! Needless to say, Jo could smell the roses and talked smacked about her team before leaving the via the Toilet Train.

We got ten contestants left. Who is going to make it another day and who will be kicked out right before the halfway point? Find out now on Total! Drama! Wildclaw Island!

Intro Song

Rodney plays with his breakfast. The Eagles (minus Anne Maria who was in the bathroom doing makeup) looked at him with sympathy.

SHAWN: Come on, big boy. It's not the end of the world. Heck, I had a rough time with Jasmine.

RODNEY: *sighs*

---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

CAMERON: I would be lying if I said that I wasn't half-tempted to vote for Anne Maria last night given her comments about Rodney. But I know Jo and it was the best move to keep Anne Maria here for an extra day. Not the most ethical decision I made during my time here on Total Drama.

---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

Anne Maria joins her team.

ANNE MARIA: So, whats up?

SHAWN: More like who's down?

ANNE MARIA: What? Do you expect me to apologize for telling the truth?

SHAWN: How about apologizing for breaking somebody's feelings!

ANNE MARIA: I know you just did not raise your voice at me, Freakshow.

SHAWN: Have you even listened to yourself? I thought Justin was vain! Geez, he takes second place compared to you!

ANNE MARIA: And what are you going to do about it? Throw me out to the horde of the undead? Please.

---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

ANNE MARIA: I cannot believe I am saying this, but Jo was right about this team. So I hurt Rodney's feelings, so what? I ain't going to lie on who has a shot at all this.

---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

SHAWN: You would be crazy to think that Anne Maria drew a line in the sand. Lines that are drawn in the sand get erased. She drew a line in the concrete, and that is something that can never be erased.

---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

The Hawks watch the Eagles fight amongst each other.

DAWN: I cannot help but feel sorry for them. They don't realize that all the fighting will get them nowhere.

NOAH: Meh, I don't care. Better them than us.

TOPHER: Noah gets it.

BRIDGETTE: You like the fighting?

TOPHER: Pretty much, yes. It's the best form of entertainment that we have. And we don't even need to worry about a thing.

DAWN: Don't you want to help them?

TOPHER: As much as I would love to, they aren't my concern.

NOAH: As much as it makes me gag, Topher is right. Their fight is to our benefit. Their constant bickering will bring us one step closer to that million.

DAWN: So you are benefiting out of their misery?

TOPHER: In a word, yes.

---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

DAWN: There is so much anger and hate in the world, it is truly a light in the darkness when somebody comes in to offer up a helping hand. I want to help ease their tensions, but Topher has the teams in chains. I cannot do anything to settle the Eagles feud until Topher leaves.

---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

Chris walks into the crafts tent.

CHRIS: Morning campers! Hawks, as you might have guessed by now, the Eagles booted Jo off the show. Now for the day's challenge.

SIERRA: Yay!

CHRIS: Over the past few days, I have seen some trust issues, so I decided that it would be best to unite the teams. We are doing a trust challenge! And here to demonstrate trust we have two people that knows how much trusting in each other has. Please say hello to the Ridonculous Race Daters: Ryan and Stephanie!

<p style="text-align: center;">Ryan and Stephanie walk into the tent.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

STEPHANIE: It is so nice to help with this challenge. When we got the call, we couldn't refuse.

RYAN: As a personal trainer, building trust with my clients is part of the job. Plus, we both know how devastating it is to lose trust in your teammate.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

CHRIS: Ryan and Stephanie will host this challenge. Now then, where is your challenge?

RYAN: At the beach.

CHRIS: Then let's go! Contestants, get your swimsuits on and meet us at the beach.

<p style="text-align: center;">The contestants got their swimsuits on and met Chris, Ryan, and Stephanie on the beach. On the beach were two lifeguard towers and below them was a chest with two locks. In the water were two identical mazes. At the end of each maze was two platforms. One platform was a large tower with a container of water in it. A rope dangled down. The other platform was a metal cage with a web of rope weaved through it.

RYAN: All right, guys. So here is how it is going to work. Steph and I will divide each team into two pairs. Whoever doesn't get into a pair will be the caller.

STEPHANIE: The caller will give out directions to each pair as they are in the water. Did I mention that the pairs will be blindfolded.

RYAN: Each pair will go into the water one at a time. The other pair cannot leave until the first pair gets back to the mat.

TOPHER: What's with the platforms?

STEPHANIE: Each platform has a key that is needed to unlock your team's chest. Once both keys have been obtained by the pair, the caller will come down from the tower and unlock the chest to reveal a message in a bottle. The first team to get their bottle will win.

RYAN: Does everybody got that?

CONTESTANTS: Yes.

RYAN: Before we forget, the pairs will be attached by the hips with bungee cords and harnesses. You are not allowed to take these off during the entirety of this challenge.

STEPHANIE: Good. We will assign the pairs based on how little you trust your partner. Let's get assigning roles.

<p style="text-align: center;">Stephanie and Ryan assigned each pairs. For the Hawks: Topher and Dawn are a pair with Noah and Amy as another. Bridgette will be the caller for the Hawks. For the Eagles, it was Sierra and Shawn as a pair and Anne Maria and Rodney as the other. Cameron is the Eagle's caller.

CHRIS: Callers ready?

BRIDGETTE: Yep.

CAMERON: Yes.

<p style="text-align: center;">An air horn sounded. The first two pairs in the water was Amy and Noah and Rodney and Anne Maria. The callers successfully navigated their teammates through the maze.

CAMERON: Anne Maria, Rodney, go to the tower!

BRIDGETTE: Go to the left, you guys. You will go to the tower!

<p style="text-align: center;">Both pairs reached the tower and pulled the rope. The container flipped and water splilled on both of them.

ANNE MARIA & AMY: My hair!

<p style="text-align: center;">With the help of the callers, both pairs retrieved their keys and went through the maze. The second pairs (Topher and Dawn and Sierra and Shawn) went through.

TOPHER: All right, Dawn, I trust you with the ropes.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

TOPHER: I have no need to win this challenge. So I am going to lay back and let Dawn mess this up.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Both pairs crossed the maze and began to work on the roped cages.

<p style="text-align: center;">At the Eagle's platform...

SIERRA: Ever wondered why we are a pair?

SHAWN: Probably because Anne Maria was already taken by Rodney and Cameron was the more trustworthy one out of those that remained.

SIERRA: Amazing how that turned out.

SHAWN: Yeah, but do you think that you-

SIERRA: Got the key!

CHRIS: The Eagles got their key and are heading back! The Hawks still are getting nowhere.

<p style="text-align: center;">On the Hawk's platform, Dawn was busy untangling the ropes where Topher was just feeling around the box.

DAWN: I can sense that you aren't helping.

TOPHER: I am not a boy scout, Dawn. I have no idea where the ends are to this thing.

<p style="text-align: center;">Cameron navigated Sierra and Shawn through the maze and onto the mat. Cameron got down from the lifeguard stand and unlocked the chests. He retrieved the bottle.

RYAN: And that is game, everyone! The Eagles win!

<p style="text-align: center;">Dawn and Topher took their blindfolds off at their platform. Back on the beach...

CHRIS: Sierra, mind reading the bottle?

SIERRA: Sure!

<p style="text-align: center;">Sierra opened the bottle and began reading the note from inside.

SIERRA: Congratulations, Eagles, you have just won immunity. But there is more than what meets the eye. Winning this challenge means that all members of your team have officially reached the merge of the season.

CAMERON: What?

SHAWN: Aw, sweet!

SIERRA: Not only that, but you are allowed to view the Hawk's campfire ceremony and you have retrieved the clue to the one and only Chris McLean Head Statue hidden somewhere on this island. Please read the clue to your team as soon as possible.

CHRIS: There you have it. Eagles, you are no more Eagles. Hawks, you will still be the Hawks up until one of you takes the flush. Figure out who that is and I will see everybody tonight.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

ANNE MARIA: The fact that I just won is huge and there is a tiki head somewhere that can save me. Today has been my lucky day.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Noah and Dawn talk from outside the crafts tent.

DAWN: I think that Topher threw the challenge.

NOAH: Makes no sense why he did. We have the numbers to send him home. This just confirms it

DAWN: But we need Bridgette's vote to send him home.

NOAH: Leave that to me.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

NOAH: During my time on Total Drama, I haven't made it to the merge. By talking with Bridgette, I am aligning myself with her so when the merge does happen, I will have her vote with me up until she becomes a liability.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Amy and Topher are laying with each other in the Hawk's cabin.

AMY: So what now?

TOPHER: We go after Noah.

AMY: For me?

TOPHER: Yes.

AMY: Aww... Thanks Tophy!

<p style="text-align: center;">Amy kisses Topher on the cheek.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

TOPHER: I am thinking late game here. If I keep Dawn, people will think that I am going after her first which will keep the target off of them. Little do they know is that I am using Dawn as a shield where I pick people off one by one. The only person that can complete this plan is Bridgette. I need her to vote out Noah and I know just how to do it.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Bridgette is out swimming. Noah met her by the beach.

BRIDGETTE: What's up?

NOAH: We need to talk. I know that we seldom talk much, but this is a crucial point for everyone. I thought that it would be best to get rid of Topher. He and Amy are close and we don't want another Alejandro and Heather to happen.

BRIDGETTE: You're right.

NOAH: I already talked to Dawn about it and she is on board. So, you game?

BRIDGETTE: Definitely.

NOAH: Cool. I'll go back and check with Dawn about it.

<p style="text-align: center;">Noah left and Topher came up to Bridgette.

BRIDGETTE: Where did you come from?

TOPHER: I was just passing by thinking about what tonight will bring and I overheard Noah talking to you about getting rid of me.

BRIDGETTE: Topher, listen, I know I saved you once, but Noah made a valid point. I cannot allow another Aleheather to happen.

TOPHER: So I guess that it's Doah, huh?

BRIDGETTE: Doah?

TOPHER: Thinking of romantic ship names I use for Dawn and Noah. Both of them are so smart, just like Alejandro an Heather. Plus they are trustworthy, just like you thought of Alejandro before realizing that he is a snake. However, I do trust you, Bridgette. Because I trust you, I am going to tell you that Noah is using you.

BRIDGETTE: Using me?

TOPHER: A few days ago, while we were doing dishes, Noah told me about how much he needs to get rid of you. I managed to convince him to go for Brick instead.

BRIDGETTE: So Noah is after me?

TOPHER: You know it. Have I ever steered you wrong?

BRIDGETTE: No, but neither have Noah and Dawn.

TOPHER: Not even after I told you that Noah was going for you?

BRIDGETTE: Let me think about it.

TOPHER: Sure, but think carefully. Noah is the one going after you, not me.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

BRIDGETTE: So once again the fate on the direction my team goes rests with me. I don't know how I got into this spot to begin with.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Over at the Eagles's cabin, Sierra began reading the clue to thet Chris McClean Head Statue.

SIERRA: In order to stay in the game, you need to stay one head above the rest. It is in a spot where you will find out who is playing it the best. Earth, Fire, and Air are the ingredients to make water, and such is where the world turns around.

CAMERON: That doesn't make any sense!

ANNE MARIA: What does make sense.

SIERRA: There's something else here, too. The statue can only be played before the votes are read up until the final five during the merge stage.

RODNEY: So, what do we do?

SHAWN: Easy. We keep this to ourselves and we find the idol together.

<p style="text-align: center;">Anne Maria takes the note and puts it in her hair.

ANNE MARIA: Allow me to make sure that the other team does not take the note.

SHAWN: Good thinking, AM.

<p style="text-align: center;">---CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

ANNE MARIA: This note is worth a million dollars. I just have to hand it to Topher whenever possible and that statue is as good as mine. They think they can get rid of me? Just wait until this beauty outsmarts the brainiacs.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

<p style="text-align: center;">Night has fallen and both teams are at the campfire ceremony. The Eagles sat on logs, eager to watch the dirt the Hawks have on each other.

CHRIS: Before the flushing can begin, I just want to talk to everyone who made it to the merge to know about the sleeping arrangements. No longer will the Hawks and the Eagles cabin be allowed. In fact, they are being destroyed as we speak.

AMY: Then were are we going to sleep?

CHRIS: In the Brains cabin, off course. Now then, let's get down and dirty to see which Hawk will be eliminated.

<p style="text-align: center;">---VOTING CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

DAWN: The time has come to avenge the innocent. I vote for Topher.

TOPHER: I vote for the snake, Noah.

NOAH: My vote is easy. Topher, you played a good game, but I am the reality professional here. You are just some wannabe.

AMY: Buh-bye, Boring. I mean Noah.

BRIDGETTE: I just can't make up my mind.Ugh, I am so going to regret this but I sadly have to vote for Noah. You did say you were coming after me as soon as possible.

<p style="text-align: center;">---END CONFESSIONAL STATIC---

NOAH: What?

CHRIS: And in an amazing turn of events, Noah, with three votes against you, you're leaving, buddy.

NOAH: Are you kidding me? You know what? Fine. But be careful around Topher, guys. He is like Alejandro, dipped in grease covered in motor oil.

TOPHER: And I make it look better than ol' Al.

CHRIS: All righty then. Everyone who is not getting into a toilet, go to your new cabin. Noah, time for you to take the plunge.

<p style="text-align: center;">Noah is in the Flush of Shame. Only Dawn is on the cliff waving him goodbye.

CHRIS: Any last words, Noah?

NOAH: Tell the Aura Whisperer to watch her back.

CHRIS: Nope.

<p style="text-align: center;">Noah gets flushed. The splash back came up and soak the ground around Dawn, but not Dawn herself.

CHEF: That girl is one crazy one.

CHRIS: You would think she'll get wet. But I don't care. I'm heading to sleep.

<p style="text-align: center;">At the aftermath studio, the manhole cover ripped off in the torrent of water. Noah came out, soaked.

GEOFF: Noah! Dude! What happened?

NOAH: As your girl. She is the one that got me here.

GEOFF: Right.I have to watch it. (turns to the camera) Tune in Friday for the final aftermath show of Total! Drama! Wildclaw Island!
