User:Fedora Kid/My (Fictional) Time on the Show

Fedora Kid's (Fictional) Time on the Show:
I've seen a bunch of other users do this, so I eventually said to myself, "Eh, why not?" So, in this story, Fedora Kid's name is Chester (not my real name), and he replaces Justin. Other than that all of the challenges, teams, and other characters are the same; only the challenge wins and the elimination order is different. Chester is an extremely pale Caucasian, has brown eyes, brown hair, and is five-foot-five. His stereotype is The Nerd.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 1/Part 2
Chester's POV:

Chester arrived on the island in a pretty casual and nonchalant manner, although he later admitted to the confessional that, inwardly, he was very nervous, as he had never been on a reality show before. He was put on the Screaming Gophers, and he seemed to take a liking to Heather, who harshly rejected him using some of that day's lunch meat. He was also seen to hang out with Cody, and the two quickly became friends. When it was the Gophers' turn to do the cliff dive, he told Heather, "After you, Beautiful." Heather replied by throwing him off the cliff, only for LeShawna to throw her off the cliff subsequently. With Beth being the only chicken, the Gophers won the special carts to pull their crates. Later, Heather was talking to Lindsay about how she didn't like the looks of Gwen, and thought she seemed suspicious. She also added that Gwen hardly participated in pulling the carts. Chester overheard the conversation, but didn't interfere. Later, while they were building the hot tub, Chester accidentally used the wrong amount of glue for each board of wood, and it wasn't as strong and sturdy as it could have been. This was later confirmed when Chris inspected their hot tub, and said it looked awesome. Chester, trying to be cool, casually leaned against the hot tub, only for it to split under the pressure and collapse completely. The other Gophers all glared at him after this happened. Despite the Bass' hot tub not faring much better, Chris decided to declare the Bass as the winners due to their hot tub at least looking cruddy, and he expected it to collapse,unlike the Gophers'. Plus, it lasted a few seconds longer than the Gophers did. At dinner, most of the Gophers, particularly Gwen and Noah, were already determined to vote off Chester, but Heather later pulled him aside and told him that the only way to save him was to put someone else on the chopping block. Chester agreed, and she told him to vote for Gwen, due to her earlier dislike of her. Heather managed to convince Beth, Lindsay, and Owen to do the same, and together, the five of them voted Gwen off. While Gwen, Noah, and LeShawna voted for Chester, and Cody, Trent, and Izzy voted for Beth. Chester then later proceeded to rant on in the confessional about "how nice that angelic Heather is" for saving him. Meanwhile, Heather revealed that the only reason she saved "that annoying little dweeb" was because she figured that he would be easy to sucker into an alliance.

Killer Bass POV:

Most goes normally with the Bass over the course of the challenge, with little to no affection by Chester's involvement. Later in the day, Ezekiel openly boasts that he isn't surprised that the Bass won, as they have less girls. Despite his "team spirit", Bridgette and Eva are offended by his comments. Geoff attempts to defend him, but he continues on unknowingly. After he states that guys are smarter than girls, Eva grabs him by the neck and flings him right into the wall, smashing a hole right through the wood. Ezekiel, in the confessional with a bandaged head, seems clueless as to why they attacked him. He also states that, since they have won the challenge, he is unsure about spending another three days with the angry female Bass members. Later that night, he is seen noticeably very afraid to go to sleep, and Duncan makes it worse when he tells him that he had better sleep with one eye open. Tyler and Harold try to calm Zeke down, and tell him that there is nothing to worry about. Later that night, Harold, who has the bunk below him, whispers to him that he screwed up big time, but he will help him.

The Big Sleep
Chester has already made enemies with several of the other Gophers, particularly Noah, due to his barely surviving the last elimination. In the 20k run, he was the second-to-last to finish, only next to Harold. When it came time to eat, he was seen quickly shoving Noah out of the way to get at some of the McDonald's cheeseburgers, which he voraciously devoured. However, come the sleeping part of the challenge, he struggled to stay awake, even resorting to slapping himself and putting his butt over the bonfire to nearly burn himself. Later, Heather pulled Chester, Lindsay, and Beth aside to talk to them about an alliance. All three of them eagerly agreed. Chester was among the last six Gophers still standing, while Noah, Cody, Heather, Lindsay, and Beth all stayed awake after him. Meanwhile, the situation with the Bass girls vs. Ezekiel continues, and Harold tells Zeke that what he said isn't entirely true. While he understands Ezekiel's mention that he was simply raised that way, Harold tells him that he will have to make it up to the girls somehow. Shortly after, Ezekiel manages to earn some redemption; he somehow manages to stay wide awake long after Heather, the last standing Gopher fell asleep (he claimed it was due to living on the farm all his life, where he naturally gets up early and goes to bed late), and wins the challenge for the Bass for the second time in a row. He seems to earn the approval of Bridgette, Katie, and Sadie, but Courtney and Eva still seem to hold a grudge against him. At the bonfire, Heather's new alliance came down to either voting off Noah or Owen; the latter due to being the first to fall asleep, and the former due to his disturbing encounter with Cody. However, they ultimately decided on Owen, and the four of them, along with Trent, voted Owen out. Noah and LeShawna voted for Chester, and Izzy, Cody, and Owen voted for Noah.

Dodgebrawl
LeShawna and Noah continue to express their grudge against Chester. When they are glaring at him at breakfast, he finally bursts out and asks why they dislike him so much. Noah states that it's because he is clumsy and hardly does well in the challenges, and LeShawna says she disapproves of his voting off Gwen, due to her thinking that Gwen could've been "alright." Later, Chester is seen talking to the neutral Trent to see if he can at least get another true friend on the island besides Cody. Due to Trent hanging out with LeShawna often, and due to being seen smiling at Gwen and looking at her often on the first day, Chester proceeds to boldly ask Trent if he liked Gwen. Trent is reluctant, but ultimately admits to it. Chester tells him that he is sorry, as he knows what it is like to be heartbroken in that way, and that he will make it up to him, even using the cheesy line, "There's a lot of fish in the sea." Later, when they announce that the challenge is dodgeball, Chester appears to be extremely enthusiastic about it, along with Cody. He says in the confessional that he is the best dodgeball player in his whole school, and that "dodgeballs to me are like bullets to those Matrix guys; I dodge everything!" In the first challenge, several people seem reluctant to let him participate, believing that he will screw it up again, but Heather convinces them to let him join. This proves to be an excellent choice, as he truly does dodge every ball with perfect swiftness and cat-like reflexes. While he is reluctant about throwing balls, he does manage to hit Tyler (mostly due to Tyler's own clumsiness), and catches a ball thrown by Katie. He ultimately helps them win the first round, but LeShawna is convinced that dodging won't be enough. Meanwhile, Eva, not the least bit affected by the Awake-a-thon, proves to be a champion for the Bass, as she throws very hard balls and catches well, and is also a master of dodging. Duncan, too tired from being the second-to-last Bass standing in the previous challenge, uses the excuse that he is tired from said challenge, even though it was three days ago, and sits out the games. Eventually, Lindsay is hit hard in the face by a ball from Geoff, and sits out with a very bruised face. She sits next to Trent and leans against him, saying that she is exhausted and needs "a hunk to lean against." She asks if Trent minds, to which he responds that he doesn't, and even puts his arm around her. Eventually, with Eva, DJ, Geoff, and Ezekiel all serving as four strong players for the Bass, but Chester and Cody working as a tag-team (Chester as the dodger, catcher, and supplier of the balls, and Cody as the thrower, with his "Static Ball"), the teams are tied two-to-two. Several times during the game, Courtney suggested waking up Duncan to see if he could participate, despite his threat if they did so, but DJ and Geoff disagreed, saying that Eva was good enough. Eventually, it came to an ultimate showdown of Eva vs. Chester. Chester dodged every time, showing no sign of tiring, and Eva grew more and more frustrated with missing every time. Eventually, she wound up a hard final throw, harder and with more force behind it than any other throw she had made at all during the game, and launched the ball. She finally scored, and the ball nailed Chester right in the chest, which completely winded him and knocked him out for the rest of the episode. The Bass had a brief celebration before referee Chef dropped the bomb: Eva had ended up stepping over the boundary line when she threw the ball, so the hit was declared illegal, and the Gophers won by default. While Heather and Cody commended the unconscious Chester's skills, Noah still said that he technically didn't win the game for them. Cody responded with, "Well at least he played the game!" Even LeShawna agrees, and reminds Noah that he, like Duncan, sat out the entire game. He simply shrugs. At the Bonfire that night, Eva didn't seem the least bit nervous despite losing the game for them. The bottom two came down to Ezekiel and Duncan. Ezekiel received the final marshmallow, and Duncan had been voted off. It was later revealed that Ezekiel, Bridgette, DJ, Geoff, Harold, Tyler, Katie, and Sadie all voted for Duncan, while Duncan, Eva, and Courtney voted for Ezekiel.

Not Quite So Famous
Courtney was seen to be enraged at her "idiot" teammates for voting off Duncan instead of Ezekiel, although not a lot of them seemed to care. Only Eva backed up Courtney's protests, and it appeared that they were on the verge of some sort of an alliance. Meanwhile, Chester has now almost gained complete forgiveness and approval all of his teammates, with the exception of Noah, LeShawna, and possibly Trent. When Chris announced the challenge, and told the teams to pick their players, Chester seemed quite reluctant at the idea of performing. He later talked to "the judges": Heather, Lindsay, and Beth, and told them that he did not want to be in the show. However, Heather strongly commanded him to audition anyway. His talent was playing the keyboard, which he did not do too well. Luckily for him, Heather chose not to have him participate. Later, he was talking to a noticeably upset Trent, and asked what was wrong. Trent said that he was awesome at guitar, and knew that playing the guitar would be a great act, but he just didn't find himself in the mood. When Chester asked why, Trent explained how he had been working on a song to sing for Gwen, shortly after becoming attracted to her on the first day. But following her elimination, he threw the notes away, heartbroken. Chester told him that maybe the song didn't have to apply specifically to Gwen, and that he could sing it for another girl at camp, as he believed that a certain Gopher girl already had her eyes on Trent. He seemed confused as to who Chester was talking about, until he caught Chester's obvious hints in Lindsay's direction. Trent looked at Lindsay, then told Chester that he'd think about it. Meanwhile, the Bass, whose sole judge was Courtney, eventually chose Eva, Ezekiel, and Courtney herself for the Bass. Originally, Courtney wanted to choose DJ instead of Ezekiel, but when they saw how bad and unmanly DJ's ribbon dance was compared to Ezekiel's adequate archery, she was beaten down by the majority's opposition until she agreed to choose Zeke. Just before the show, the Gophers finally make their decision: Heather with her ballet, Trent with his guitar, and Beth with her fire batons. Heather goes first, dancing elegantly in her ballerina's outfit, and with Chester noticeably staring at her breasts. Her dancing scores a nice seven/ten. Ezekiel displays his archery skills, by shooting a target's bulls-eye five times in a row, then hitting the target within the circle three times while blindfolded. This impressive "William Tell-ness" (as quoted by Chris), earns a nine/ten. Beth goes up next, doing very well at first, but ends up failing miserably when she can't catch the second baton at the very end, and it burns half of the curtain and part of the stage. She "earns" a three/ten. Eva goes up next with a display of strength; lifting up three pianos and Tyler. However, Heather and Chester loudly boo her, and Eva gets slightly distracted. Disaster follows. Eva stumbles over to the side, and steps in a part of the stage floor that had been weakened by the burns from Beth's act (and the "clean-up crew" [Chef] had missed). Her foot falls through the weak wood, and the pillar of pianos topples right into the audience, coincidentally falling into the Bass side. The pianos crush Katie, Sadie, and Harold, sending all three of them to the infirmary. Tyler, on top of the pianos, falls right through the bleachers and causes part of them to collapse. He is also physically disabled for the rest of the episode. In addition, the partial collapse of the stage floor spreads like a ripple backstage, and Courtney, who was supposed to perform next, falls through the floor and lands on her violin, crushing it. Coincidentally, Geoff was right next to her and fell through as well. He was holding his skateboard (his talent) at the time, and it fell through the floor before him, and, in a split second, once-in-a-million chance, landed on the ground straight up, with the back of it on the ground and the top right in the air. In this moment, Geoff fell through and landed right on the jutting skateboard crotch-first. Right after the painful landing, the skateboard snapped in half. Both Courtney and Geoff were only slightly injured, with the former has a limp in her right leg for the rest of the episode, and the latter cringing and bent over for the rest of the episode. The humiliated Eva limps off-stage with a two/ten, and the Bass are in turmoil. The only members left who could perform were Bridgette and DJ, since Eva and Ezekiel had already gone, Tyler, Katie, Sadie, Harold were all injured by the accident, and Courtney and Geoff had their talents destroyed. They ultimately chose on Bridgette (one of the only three not affected by the tragedy, along with DJ and Ezekiel), to do her hand-stand. She performed fairly well, and earned the Bass a nine/ten for holding the position for almost ten minutes straight. They were extremely confident with their chances, until Chester went backstage to convince Trent one last time to do his song. Trent finally agreed, seeing that it was the only chance they had of winning. He performed the song, with several references to the girl's long, flowing blond hair, but Lindsay still didn't catch the hints. Unfortunately, it was Bridgette who caught that line, and instantly believed that Trent was talking about her. She thought what he was doing was sweet, despite being on the opposite team, and listened while gazing starry-eyed at Trent. Trent's emotional and well-written song earned the Gophers a perfect ten/ten, winning the challenge for them. That night, Harold, Tyler, Katie and Sadie could not attend the Bonfire ceremony, and were declared by Chris as "out of the question" in terms of voting, saying that true injury trumps all. Thus, with those four as good as Invincible, the Bass had to vote for either Ezekiel, Courtney, Bridgette, Eva, DJ, or Geoff. Ezekiel and Bridgette received the first two marshmallows, followed by Geoff and DJ. When it was down to Courtney and Eva, the former was absolutely shocked when she was the one who ended up without a marshmallow. Once again, she screamed at her teammates for making a "stupid choice" by voting out one of their "superiors." The Bass responded by pelting her with marshmallows. In the Confessional, Bridgette, Ezekiel, and Eva all revealed separately that their motive for the vote had been this: They didn't want to vote for Ezekiel or Bridgette, obviously, since their acts were the most successsful; they didn't want to vote for DJ or Geoff since they never got to participate, with DJ trying his best in his audition and Geoff having his destroyed. But they chose to keep Eva over Courtney since it wasn't Eva's fault that she stumbled, and since Courtney became very annoying since Duncan's elimination. Thus, everyone who was present at the ceremony voted for Courtney.

The Sucky Outdoors
The Bass all celebrate Courtney's elimination at breakfast that morning, while the Gophers celebrate their victory of the challenge. Later, Chester continues to hit on Heather, complimenting how beautiful she looked in the ballerina dress. She simlpy replied with a curt, "Uh, thanks." Before turning away. She states in the Confessional that she's had "countless other wimps" hit on her in the past, and Chester is no different. She then says that if Chester wasn't so useful to her alliance, she would dump him. Subsequently, she starts to stammer about how she didn't mean "dump" as in a relationship, but dump as in to let him go. She then continues to stammer and uses more comments that only imply a relationship. When Chris announces the camping challenge, Ezekiel seems very optimistic about it, telling the Bass that he practically lives in the wilderness. Several teammates, most prominently Geoff and DJ, seem enthusiastic to have the rustic Ezekiel in this kind of challenge, anyway. The Gophers, on the other hand, have the opposite attitude, and most, such as Heather, Lindsay, and Chester, seem nervous about the idea. Nevertheless, they start their long trek into the woods towards their campsites. On the way there, Heather holds the first major alliance meeting with everyone present. She explains that their strategy is to pick off the members of the team who were the strongest mentally and physically. Someone who was a great asset to the team, but could help to expose the alliance and attempt to disband it. When Beth questioned the idea of taking down the team's own "superstars", Heather said that she was simply preparing for the merge. Chester suggested Noah almost immediately, but Heather disagreed, saying that, while he was very strong mentally, he was scrawny and hardly participated, as made evident with the Dodgeball game. She subsequently nominated LeShawna, who was already very popular, was tough and good in the challenges, and had a strong mind. The alliance members all agreed to this. Meanwhile, the Bass was listening intently to some of Ezekiel's tales of the times he had gone camping in the wilderness, and how some of those times had nearly gone deadly. The only ones who were not intrigued by his stories of being lost for three days with minimal supplies and being attacked by two angry bears, were Geoff and Eva. Geoff was seen noticeably upset by how Bridgette seemed to be the most captivated by Zeke's stories, even smiling at Zeke as he spoke. While Geoff rambled on in the Confessional about his jealousy, Bridgette also stated that, while she thought Ezekiel was a great guy, good in the challenges, and told some nice "campfire stories," she still had an interest in Trent for his song, which she was still unaware of the fact that it was not for her. Katie and Sadie were so similarly captivated by Ezekiel's stories that they missed the blueberry bush, and stayed with the team the whole time. The Bass arrived at their campsite, and Ezekiel acted as temporary leader of the team; he helped to start a fire without even using a lighter (instead using two rare rocks nearby that he explained were flammable), pitched a perfect tent, and later went off and caught six fish; all by hand. The Gophers, however, didn't fare so well. While they did manage to get their tent up, they couldn't start a fire or find any food. Ultimately, the Gophers all had trouble sleeping since they hadn't eaten anything since that morning, and they all lied wide awake in the tent. Eventually, Chester decided to tell them a ghost story. Although the storyline sucked, his killer sound effects and impersonations of the ghost all disturbed the Gophers, and they had an even harder time falling asleep. At one point, they thought they heard a real ghost sound, and they all freaked out. They all tried to rush out of the tent at the same time, and ended up knocking it right down on top of themselves, which only scared them even more. They resorted to tearing through the canvas to avoid being smothered, and once they were all outside, Izzy revealed that she had been making the ghost noises. They all glare at her before they resort to sleeping underneath a nearby massive tree. Ultimately, the Bass got a pleasant night's sleep, and they all made it back to the camp before the Gophers could, and won the challenge. That night, it was down to a bottom three of Chester, LeShawna, and Izzy, as Chris said that they all received votes. Several Gophers, including Trent, LeShawna, and Cody, said that they had voted for Izzy for making the noises and causing them to destroy their only shelter, while Noah and Izzy voted for Chester for telling the story in the first place. But Heather, Chester, Lindsay, and Beth all stuck with their original plan for LeShawna. With four votes LeShawna, three for Izzy, and two for Chester, LeShawna was voted out.

Phobia Factor
When everyone was discussing their fears around the Bonfire, Chester remained dead silent so that no one would think to ask him. Unfortunately, his rival Noah noticed his uncomfortable squirming, and asked him what his fear was. Chester shot back at Noah by asking what his fear was, to which Noah replied, "Fear." He then said, "To quote Franklin D. Roosevelt, 'The onlt thing we have to fear is fear itself.'" Several of the others seemed to approve of Noah's ingenuity, but a few (Lindsay) didn't get how one could fear fear. Eventually, the focus turned right back to Chester, who reluctantly admitted to being afraid of two things: sharks and heights. The next day, when Chris announced the challenge, Chester fainted. Katie, Sadie, and Lindsay went up first, all having to face their fear of "bad haircuts." By the end of the day, all three of them passed. Heather and Beth successfully faced their fears in their own ways. Ezekiel had to face his fear of snakes with a massive boa constrictor around him for ten seconds. Izzy encouraged him, saying that it was just like a hug; "a scaly, slimy, snakey hug!" Despite this weird cheer, Zeke still passed nonetheless at the more sane encouragement of DJ, Bridgette, and Geoff. Later, Eva had to face her fear of "an opponent with strength equal to my own" by arm-wrestling with Chef. It seemed close at first, but she ultimately won, making Chef cry like a little girl. When Noah eventually asked Chris how he was going to face his fear of fear, Chris said, "I'll think of something; just give me time." But Noah proceeded into a long and large-worded speech about how it is impossible to face fear when the fear is fear, which is why fearing fear is the best solution, due to there being nothing to fear in fear, which proves that fear is nonexistent, since there is nothing to fear. After a few minutes of this, most of the contestants and Chris complained of a headache, and Chris, begging Noah to stop, decided to automatically pass him. Trent also faced his fear of mimes by tricking it into screaming in pain when he kicked it in the groin. With a score of Gophers = 5 and Bass = 4, Geoff proceeded to fail miserably while facing his fear of hail. DJ went next, and easily picked up the harmless little snake at his teammates' encouragement, moving the Bass up to 6. Cody failed in diffusing the garbage time bomb, thus causing Bridgette to similarly fail her fear. Izzy refused to face her flying fear unless someone else went with her. Chris refused to allow this, saying that unless the other person also had a fear of flying, it would not be allowed. Izzy then quit and did not face the fear. Tyler could not face his chicken fear. This left only Chester and Harold. Chris revealed that he was combining Chester's two fears together to make what was basically a repeat of the very first challenge: jumping off the 1,000-foot cliff and into the shark-infested waters. Once again, Chester was ready to chicken out. Heather started yelling at him to do better, but this only scared him even more. Heather then got an idea: she immediately turned to sweet-talking Chester, saying, "I just know that a big, strong, wonderful guy like you can do this and win the challenge for our team so that we don't get voted off." She then, with great reluctance, kissed Chester. This put him into an extreme state of loopiness, which eventually caused him to stumble right off the edge of the cliff. Beth, Lindsay, and Cody seemed cocerned, while Noah and Heather watched him fall with eagerness. Fortunately, he landed in the safe zone and passed the challenge, tying the score at 6 to 6. However, with all of the pressure resting on Harold, he was easily able to whip out his nun-chuks and destroy the three ninjas he was faced against, winning the challenge overall for the Bass. Later, Heather was seen in a confessional rinsing her mouth out with soap, saying that the kiss was absolutely repulsive, and that she couldn't stand him much longer. However, this only secured his loyalty to her, which made him still an invaluable asset. The vote ultimately came down to Izzy and Cody, due to both of them being the only ones who failed to face their fears. However, at Heather's alliance meeting, Chester vouched for Cody, saying that he was a nice guy. When Heather simply raised an eyebrow, he quickly added, "Uh...and he's really, really weak! He's no threat at all once we're on our own!" Heather approved of this, and the four of them, along with Cody and Trent, voted for Izzy, while only Izzy herself and Noah voted for Cody. Thus, Izzy was voted out.

Up the Creek
The episode starts with the teams in the main lodge for breakfast, and Bridgette gazing lovingly at Trent. Trent notices the looks but does not think much of it, instead simply smiling back at her in a strictly friendly way. In the Confessional, he explains his thoughts on Bridgette, stating that she is nice, pretty, and popular, and that he personally wouldn't mind her too much. However, he still decides to stick with Chester's suggestion and try to go for Lindsay, as she is "way hotter," and probably easier to flirt with, due to them being on the same team. Similarly, Bridgette states that, after a while, she has now finally realized that Trent really isn't noticing her. She says that he is hot, strong, and a cool, laid-back guy, and definitely her type, but as long as they're on opposite teams, they can do nothing to interact with each other. Later, Chris announces the canoe challenge. For the second time, Ezekiel seems quite happy about this type of challenge, and seems to be the only one who enjoys the idea of a canoe trip. However, even his happy spirits are shot down when Chris gets to the "cursed forever" part. As the teams start to head off for the canoes, Sadie races out of the bathroom, having missed the introduction. When the teams are choosing partners, Katie and Sadie immediately pair up. Geoff and Ezekiel are seen glancing at the lonely Bridgette, then each other. They both quickly race over towards her, only for Bridgette to go up to Katie and Sadie and ask to join them, completely oblivious of the two guys right behind her. They both sigh heavily, then glare at each other. Ezekiel then proceeds to go with Harold and Tyler, while Geoff rides with DJ and Eva. On the Gophers' side, Beth and Lindsay ask Heather if they can go with Trent, and she initially denies them permission to do so. But Chester immediately pulls her aside and says that if Lindsay rode with Trent, she could easily "persuade" him to join their alliance, also briefly informing her of the whole ordeal with Chester trying to hook Trent up with Lindsay ever since Gwen had been voted off. He adds that he's already tried to do it (even though he had done no such thing), and it didn't work. Heather thinks about it for a moment, then compliments his deviousness and agrees, quickly changing her mind and allowing Lindsay and Beth to go with Trent. In the Confessional, Chester admits that he didn't really care about whether or not Lindsay could convince Trent to go with their alliance; he just wanted to be alone with Heather. Only after she sends Beth and Lindsay away does she immediately realize this (especially when Chester puts his arm around her), and seems repulsed by this. Nonetheless, she goes along with him. Thus, Noah and Cody take the final canoe. While on their respective canoe trips, the campers have various and interesting conversations. Ezekiel talks about his attraction to Bridgette with Tyler and Harold. Both give him advice and encouragement, saying that he is a cool, funny guy and is easy to get along with. Harold, however, says that he needs to work on his teen slang, and Tyler says that he needs to "pump his guns a little more." Ezekiel, naturally, does not understand, forcing Tyler to state it more clearly. Ezekiel understands, and eagerly accepts both of their offers to help him out in those two areas. Similarly, Geoff talks about his dilemma with Bridgette with DJ, excluding Eva from the conversation since she does all the work with rowing. DJ says that he's "got a lot going for him," since he's cool, laid-back, funny, and overall a perfect example of a "chick magnet." But he warns his friend that he's got some competition with Ezekiel; he may have screwed up on day one, but he's well made up for it, and Bridgette could possibly see the true man in him through his rustic ways, which have undoubtedly made him fairly tough and well-built. Geoff acknowledges this, and, in the Confessional, says, "Zeke, man; this...is...war." Bridgette tells Katie and Sadie about her problems with Geoff and Ezekiel, and how she knows that they are "mentally fighting over her." Katie and Sadie say that she has a tough choice to make, as Ezekiel has probably been hardened by his life on the farm, and could be pretty cool once he gets with the times. They also point out how Geoff is already a cool guy with his "happy-go-party attitude," as Sadie puts it, and is a real ladies' man. Surprisingly, Katie and Sadie seem to disagree on who they think Bridgette should hook up with, as Katie thinks it should be Ezekiel, and Sadie thinks Geoff. The two then proceed to argue over who is better, while Bridgette can only look on. In the Confessional, she says, "Note to self: Never ask those two for advice on guys ever again." Things are equally dramatic with the Gophers. As promised, Lindsay uses her charm on Trent with her excuse about getting a tan, and Trent eagerly enjoys having her head in his lap. Similarly, Chester hits on Heather, only for her to hit him back, twice. In the final canoe, Cody tries to break the ice and say, "So...what about that Heather? Pretty hot, eh?" Noah then shocks Cody with stating that Heather has formed an alliance with Lindsay, Beth, and "Chicken Boy." Cody asks if he is sure. Noah then gives a long, monotone speech that basically spells out everything they need to know about the entire alliance, including their plans, their intentions, and their being responsible for Gwen's, Owen's, and LeShawna's eliminations. Cody is absolutely taken aback, and simply stare with wide eyes. He seems quite offended at the part about Gwen's elimination, and how his friend Chester was part of it. He then simply asks Noah how he knew about this, and Noah slyly responds, "Are you kidding? You can't fool me. Trust me; I know everything." He adds that he's known about the alliance since the day it was founded. Cody then asks what they can do about it, and Noah states that their plan was to pick off the strong players of the team outside of their own alliance, one-by-one. He simply states that they have succeeded in doing so, and currently, they are the only non-alliance members left, thus leaving them with huge targets on their backs. Cody asks about Trent, and Noah states that he is protected, since they are using Lindsay and her sex appeal to convince Trent to join the alliance, even looking over at their canoe and saying, "Look at her; her head in his lap and shaking her boobs and all that. She's conning the poor sucker." When Cody seems to stare at her breasts after this, Noah tells him to snap out of it. He then proceeds to suggest that the two of them form an "Intellectual Alliance," consisting of the true brainiacs of the team: themselves. Noah states that, as much as he "strongly dislikes" Cody, he also dislikes losing. Thus, the duo reluctantly form the alliance, with Noah glaring at Cody, and with Cody himself still in shock at the news of his best friend, Chester, being a villain. When they arrive at the island, most of the following events are the same: the canoe race; Lindsay, Trent, and Cody with the quicksand; Geoff and his injury (which Ezekiel noticeably rolled his eyes at), and the teams' almost simultaneous arrival at the beach. While the teams are looking for firewood, Chester stumbles upon the idol, and picks it up, looking at it curiously. He is about to pocket it when Heather suddenly yells at him to hurry up and get with the program. Startled by her yell, he ends up tossing the idol away, where it lands right in front of Sadie. She also picks it up, seeming quite intrigued by it, and pockets it before returning to her team. She says in the Confessional (surprisingly, by herself) that she won't tell anyone about the idol not even Katie. When the Bass notice the Gophers' fire starting to get larger, Harold panics and, in his haste, throws all of their oars onto the fire. Although this makes a bigger fire and easily wins the fire-building task for the Bass, they are now left with no way back. Thus, the Gophers easily manage to reach the shore first, and win. Everyone on the Bass, even Ezekiel, glared at Harold hard after his royal screw-up. That night, several angry confessions were shown, including Eva, saying that she'd vote out "the scrawny nerd, without a doubt;" Ezekiel saying to the camera, "Harold...I appreciate the advice and the offer, but it's gotta be you;" and Bridgette, saying, "After what you did, my choice is obvious." Not surprisingly, the bottom two was Harold and Eva, with the latter receiving the marshmallow. It was later revealed that everybody on the team voted for Harold, and Harold was the one who voted for Eva.

Paintball Deer Hunter
At breakfast, Ezekiel is seen confessing to Tyler that he felt guilty about voting out Harold in the last Bonfire Ceremony, since he was going to help him understand teen lingo better. Tyler is able to make him feel a little better by admitting that he, too, voted for Harold. He then states that he'll be very willing to help him learn teen speak in Harold's place, in addition to helping him become stronger and more athletic. Ezekiel thanks him, still looking noticeably upset. Later, when Chris announces the challenge, Chester is ecstatic at the idea of paintballing, even though most of the others don't seem as entusiastic. He then goes on in the Confessional with a story of his very first time paintballing, as he says, "It was one of the greatest - and most painfu - days of my life! I only got shot once in the face, seven times in the back, and three times in the butt!" As Chris is preparing the equipment, Ezekiel asks what "paintballing" is. Chris then answers his question by pulling out one of the guns and demonstrating it. Despite the demonstration being at Ezekiel's expense, he seems enthusiastic once he learns that it involves guns (even if they aren't real). He then explains about all the times that he and his dad went on hunting trips with real guns, and how all of those times have given Ezekiel impeccable aim and accuracy. However, he royally screws up when he boasts several of his own kills -- right in front of Bridgette. She is mortified at the way he would kill animals, and he tries to redeem himself by saying that he mostly goes for dangerous animals such as bears. Nonetheless, she disapproves of the hunting thing, much to Geoff's pleasure and Ezekiel's dismay. Chris then splits the two teams into their groups. The hunters for the Gophers are Lindsay, Beth, Chester, and Noah, while Cody, Trent, and Heather are the deer. For the Bass, the hunters are Ezekiel, Bridgette, Geoff, and Tyler, while the deer are Katie, Sadie, Eva, and DJ. While Noah goes off on his own, Lindsay, Beth, and Chester stay together as a group and search for Heather to start their secret alliance meeting. Eva is embarassed by the deer get-up, and storms off into the woods, saying that she wants to be alone. DJ also decides to trek it out on his own, leaving Katie and Sadie together. Similarly, all three of the Gophers' deer split up, with Heather waiting for her alliance to arrive. Noah and Cody eventually rendezvous outside the old Boathouse, and discuss their plan. Noah states that they are doomed to be the next two to go unlesss they can come up with a plan to survive. He then states that their only chance lies with Trent. Even after getting some time alone with Lindsay, they could still have a chance to convince him of the truth. Cody states that he might be able to do that, since he is already friends with Trent. Noah says that that won't be good enough, and that he needs the secret weapon; the information that this alliance was responsible for Gwen's elimination. Noah says that he knows about how Trent was attracted to her even after the first day, and that this knowledge will only ensure his loyalty to them. Cody agrees, and they split up again to search for Trent. Around the same time, Lindsay, Chester, and Beth arrive at Heather's hiding place, and she states in the Confessional that she has decided that she wants to test the loyalty of her alliance members, one at a time. She first tells Chester to go get her a bag of chips from the main lodge, and he races off almost instantly to do so. She tells Lindsay and Beth to go off and continue the challenge, then meet her back at the same spot in about twenty minutes. By the time they come back, Chester has already returned with the bag. She thanks him, then sends him off to do the challenge. She then sends Lindsay and Beth off at the same time; Lindsay to get her some blueberries, and Beth to get another bag of chips. When Beth asks why, if Chester just got one for her, she replies that he had gotten a flavor that she was allergic to. Beth, with some obvious reluctance, goes off to do so. Meanwhile, Noah finds himself quite avid at paintballing, as he actually manages to sneak up on DJ and pelt him several times before the athletic DJ easily escapes and outruns him. At the same time, Geoff is talking casually with Bridgette as they walk through the wood, while Ezekiel can only hang back and watch, afraid to talk to Bridgette again after upsetting her the first time. Tyler walks alongside Zeke and tries to console him, to no avail. Geoff says a lot of funny things, and Bridgette is seen to laugh a lot and enjoy talking with him. In the Confessional, a satisfied and smug Geoff says, "Mark up several points for the Geoffster, and chock down several points for Home-School!" Later, Beth returns with the bag, and Lindsay with the berries. Heather is pleased with both of them, but notices Beth's slight annoyance. In the Confessional, she explains all of her motives, including how having been in the game this far has now weakened the loyalty of some of her members. Plus, with an alliance as large as hers, she needs to single out those who are most loyal, and those who are simply "sheep." She then simply remarks on how Beth is clearly the subject of both these sentences, and will definitely be the first to go once the team consists only of the alliance members. Suddenly, at that moment, the four Bass hunters appear. Seeing one of the enemy deer, they all immediately open fire. Both Heather and Lindsay (caught in the crossfire) are pelted, while Beth dives out of the way and retaliates with her own fire, nailing Geoff. At the same time, Chester swings out of a tree on a vine (revealing that he had been listening to the girls' entire conversation), and shoots wildly at the Bass shooters will yelping Tarzan-like calls. He manages to hit Ezekiel, Bridgette, and Geoff (but mostly Ezekiel). He manages to land perfectly on another high tree branch, and starts shooting at them from above like a sniper, hitting them endlessly and perfectly. Eventually, with two people shooting at them from behind barriers (Beth hidden behind bushes) while the four of them are considerably exposed, the Bass shooters retreat, covered in red (Gopher) paint. Chester swings back down, and a shocked (not to mention soaked) Heather is amazed by his paintballing skills. In the Confessional once more, she quickly says, "...But at least Beth kicked some serious Bass butt in that shootout! Lindsay just cowered and let them hit her! Hmm...maybe it's going to be a little harder whom I'll decide to go first once we're the only ones left." Later, Cody finally manages to catch up with Trent, outside the cave, and attempts to tell him the truth about the alliance. Trent seems confused at first and doesn't understand what he means. Cody decides to take it from the top, and starts off by telling him about how Heather has formed an alliance consisting of herself, Lindsay, Beth, and Chester. At the mention of Lindsay, Trent is stunned, and initially doesn't believe Cody, but Cody quickly tells him about how Lindsay's flirting back at the canoe ride was just a part of getting him to join Heather's alliance. Trent is left speechless, but asks Cody how he knew this. Cody says that he heard it from Noah. At the mention of Noah (who Trent still dislikes since the Dodgeball game), he starts to doubt him. Cody continues on, and tells him that the alliance is strong and led by a clever mind. He says that they somehow orchestrated every elimination on the Gophers so far, besides Izzy's. The moment he says this, Trent immediately asks, "Even Gwen's?" With some reluctance, he confirms this. Trent immediately groans and facepalms. In the Confessional, he immediately goes on a hateful rant about how he feels betrayed by Lindsay and Chester, and enraged at the idea that he was about to align himself with those behind Gwen's elimination. Suddenly, when it cuts back to Cody and Trent, they hear a rustling in the bushes nearby, followed by voices. Fearing it to be the other team's hunters, they immediately dive into the cave - only to discover the sleeping bear inside, which they accidentally awaken. After being in the cave for less than two seconds, they run right back out of the cave, screaming like little girls. The bear, too tired after just waking up, does not chase after them, but they do run right into the paint-covered Bass hunters, and are pelted with paintballs. However, in yet another stroke of luck for the Gophers, Noah, Chester, and Lindsay appear out of the bushes behind the four Bass in a surprise ambush, and pelt them all over again. As the paintballs fly, the announcement comes over the intercom that the campers are to return to camp. Back at camp, Chris evaluates the teams' performances: For the Gophers, Lindsay, Heather, Cody, and Trent are mildly covered in paint, while Beth and Chester have only a few spots on them, and Noah is completely spotless. For the Bass, Geoff, Ezekiel, Tyler, and Bridgette are absolutely soaked, DJ mildly hit, and Katie, Sadie, and Eva are absolutely clean. Despite the Bass having more clean members, Chris explains how he thinks the Gophers were superior in the fact that four of the Bass (Ezekiel, Tyler, Geoff, and Bridgette) are more paint-covered than all of the other contestants combined. Also, the fact that several of the Bass who were hit weren't even deer made them even more pathetic. Thus, despite much protest from the Bass, Chris declares the Gophers as the winners. Prior to the Bonfire Ceremony, multiple confessions are shown. The first is Geoff, who almost instantly votes for Ezekiel. Similarly, Ezekiel votes for Geoff. Tyler also votes for Geoff to help his friend Ezekiel out, since he thinks that he deserves Bridgette more, and since he believes that Geoff is becoming more of a jerk towards Ezekiel. Bridgette is then shown saying that she obviously can't vote for Eva, Katie, or Sadie since they all did the best. She doesn't want to vote for Ezekiel or Geoff, because she wants to give both of them a chance. She doesn't want to vote for DJ, since he's a nice guy. Thus, this leaves only Tyler, whom she votes for due to him not being much of a friend, and for doing poorly in the challenge. DJ comes to the same conclusion in his own confessional. At the Bonfire Ceremony, Chris gives marshmallows to the four who didn't receive any votes: DJ, Eva, Katie, and Sadie. When it's down to Geoff, Tyler, Bridgette, and Ezekiel. Geoff looks at Ezekiel and does the slashing motion across his neck. Coincidentally, Geoff receives the next marshmallow. He starts to slowly and tauntingly eat his marshmallow in front of Ezekiel, but then chokes on it when Ezekiel is the next to be called. He quickly returns the slow eating motion with his own marshmallow, infuriating Geoff. It is down to Tyler and Bridgette. Chris explains that, according to several of the confessionals, both of them are in the bottom two because of their poor performance in the challenge, not to mention their extreme clumsiness. However, the entire Killer Bass is shocked when Tyler receives the last marshmallow, and Bridgette is eliminated. The remaining Confessionals, those of Katie, Sadie, and Eva, are then shown. Katie and Sadie believed that, although Bridgette was a great person, she still did terrible in the challenge and her clumsiness had made certain challenges tougher for them in the past. In addition, she was the unintentional cause of the war between Ezekiel and Geoff. They refer to how that technically ended up starting an argument between the two of them, which they hate to do. Thus, they believe that she was the reason for all these arguments between various Bass members. Even though this is obviously a terrible reason to vote for Bridgette, they both still do so. And Eva votes for her because of the same first two reasons as Katie and Sadie, and also because she already had a strong dislike of Bridgette, due to her "surfer girl, vegetarian, save the environment, love all animals" attitude, because she already cannot stand those "hippie" types. As Bridgette leaves, both Geoff and Ezekiel race down to meet her at the end of the Dock. However, Tyler sticks his foot out and trips Geoff as he is running, giving Zeke the full lead. He reaches the end of the Dock and apologizes to Bridgette for upsetting her earlier. He also states that he had absolutely nothing to do with her elimination, and has no idea how it happened. She forgives him, and apologizes to him as well for treating him the way she did on the first day, just because of the way he was raised. Bridgette puts her hand on Ezekiel's shoulder and says that he is a great friend, and she'll be rooting for him the whole way. He thanks her, and she leaves. Geoff attempts to make a last-minute goodbye to her as well, scrambling down the Dock, stumbling and nearly falling several times, and babbling wildly like a buffoon the whole way. But by the time he reaches Ezekiel, Bridgette is already in the Boat of Losers, sailing off into the night. The distraught Geoff collapsed onto all fours, moaning in agony. Ezekiel simply looks down with little sympathy, then turns and returns to the rest of the Bass. The episode ends with Chris telling them all to wash up before they go to bed, due to all the paint on most of them.

If You Can't Take the Heat...
When Chris announced the cooking challenge, Ezekiel, for the third time, was excited about the challenge, saying that he had gained an abundance of cooking skills while on the farm. On the Gophers, hardly anyone else knows about cooking, except for Noah. The two teams thus come up with various recipes. Noah decides to make his own special version of fettuccini alfredo, complete with a side of smoked trout and pinches of parmesan spice. The team is generally shocked by his revealed knowledge of fine cuisines (and, albeit, fairly clueless as to what he is saying), but they ultimately decide to go along with his idea, with great reluctance on the part of Heather and her alliance. Thus, Noah takes over as the temporary team captain. Beth explains to him that they don't have any of the stuff they'll need to make any of that, but Noah remains confident and tells her to trust him. On the Bass, Ezekiel is unanimously elected as the team leader for the day (with the exceptions of Geoff and Eva), and he proceeds to lay out his plans of a more rustic and fairly common meal: A large steak, cooked medium rare, with corn on the cob and a fruit salad as the sides. The two teams start off fairly well, with what appears to be perfect teammwork on both sides. However, each team has its monkey wrenches. Geoff states his plan in the Confessional: feeling that Ezekiel was somehow responsible for Bridgette's elimination, and for rubbing it in his face (although he did neither of these), he plans to ruin the meal without anyone else knowing. Thus, Ezekiel, as the head chef, will get the blame and be voted off. Thus, he plans to sabotage the two main courses of the meal: the steak and the salad. When Ezekiel sends him off to go get some fruit for the salad, Geoff does successfully find some pineapples. He then manages to sneak off into the woods and eventually finds what he is looking for: poison ivy. He is then seen with several of the prize fruits, including the pineapple and regular apples, carefully opening up the fruits and sticking the ivy inside. Later, he is told to take the steak out of the oven after it is done. He does so and makes sure that the Bass are not looking. He starts to reach into his pocket for an unseen item. Heather admits that she does not like taking orders from Noah, considering that he is an enemy, and a very intelligent one at that. However, she is willing to do anything she can to win and avoid possibly losing an alliance member at the next Bonfire Ceremony. She says that she at least wants to wait until the merge, then she and her alliance will be free of their "Gopher bonds." Finally, the two teams present. Chris is pleased with the Gophers meal, stating that it is absolutely fantastic, and five-star, but maybe too fancy for him. When he sees the Bass' meal, he says that they look promising, as he loves a good steak. He takes the first bite of the steak, and immediately spews it out, panting heavily and hard and gasping for water. As Chef provides him with the water, Geoff is seen hiding the bottle of hot sauce behind his back, grinning sadistically. Chris recovers and says that the steak sucks, but he'll still try the corn and some of the salad. He enjoys the corn, but come the pineapple slice, he immediately spews it out and starts trying to scratch the inside of his mouth, eventually starting to vomit multiple times, much to the disgust of everyone else. Chris, through a swelling mouth and a strange, lisp-sounding voice, declares that the Bass lose. They express their frustration and start to glare at Ezekiel. However, luck is on his side when Sadie throws her arms up in annoyance at their loss, causing the idol to fall out of her pocket. The loud clattering draws everyone's attention to it, and she cannot hide it when she tries to pick it up. After the interrogation from the others, she admits that she got it from Boney Island. Chris quickly tells her that she has cursed her team by taking it, even when he told her not to. So that night, the final two, not surprisingly, comes down to Ezekiel and Sadie. Ezekiel receives the final marshmallow, greatly distressing both Katie and Sadie. After the emotional goodbye, and Katie vowing to win for Sadie, the votes are revealed. Geoff, Katie, and Sadie voted for Ezekiel, while Ezekiel, DJ, Tyler, and Eva all voted for Sadie.

Who Can You Trust?
The morning of the challenge, Chester and Noah are seen glaring at each other on the dock. The same goes for Ezekiel and Geoff. In the Confessional, Ezekiel states that he knows for a fact that someone sabotaged his steak and pineapple, as his recipe was flawless and he double-checked it before serving. He says that Geoff is the obvious candidate, and he will be watching that "traitor" for a long time. Chris announces the challenge, and pairs Noah and Chester up for the Gophers, and Geoff and Ezekiel for the Bass, much to the dismay of all four campers. Chester climbs for the Gophers while Noah holds, and Ezekiel climbs while Geoff holds. Chester and Ezekiel start to have a friendly conversation as they are on the cliff, purely for the sake of annoying their respective teammates. When Chester runs his mouth and insults Noah, Noah hears it and tugs on the rope, hoisting Chester up violently so that his head hits a jutting rock above him, causing him to fall back down and hang freely. Chester manages to regain a grip, only to find that Ezekiel is well in the lead. However, Chris's hot sauce in Geoff's direction, combined with a perfectly-timed explosion on the spot Ezekiel is at, causes Ezekiel to lose his grip and tumble to the ground, while Geoff screams in pain as the hot sauce got in his eyes. Chester manages to climb to the top and cheer triumphantly, only for Noah to playfully yank him back down and send him tumbling down the cliff as well. Noah's response is "Oops." In the Confessional, Chester swears revenge. For the cooking challenge, Chris puts Katie and Eva together for the Bass, and Lindsay and Trent for the Gophers. Lindsay cooks for Trent, saying that she took biology. Trent seems perfectly fine with her cooking, but noticeably smiles awkwardly. Katie volunteers to do the cooking for Eva, while Eva does not seem too happy about this. When they finish, Trent takes one bite and immediately passes out. However, Katie does surprisingly good, and her food does not kill Eva. Thus, with the score tied, they must resort to their final challenge: the toboggan challenge. Chris pairs Heather and Beth together for the Gophers, and Tyler and DJ for the Bass. The Gophers start to do fairly well as Beth gives the diretions, while the Bass, with Tyler giving directions, aren't doing so well. At the last second, however, Tyler's decision to bank a sharp right send them right on top of an explosive, sending the two of them flying straight to the finish line. They fly directly over Heather and Beth, and are so low that they hit Heather in the head, causing her to lose control of the toboggan and crash into a mud puddle. Thus, the Bass are declared as the winners, and the Gophers must send someone home. That night, prior to the ceremony, Noah confronts Trent while he is incapacitated, and attempts to warn him one last time of Heather's alliance, and tells him that he must vote for Heather. However, the barely-sane Trent doesn't get the message, and cannot vote that night. At the ceremony, it is down between Beth and Noah. Surprisingly, Noah receives the final marshmallow, shocking the entire team. As Beth walks the Dock of Shame, she turns back one last time, looking straight at Heather, and asks what happened. Heather, with a bandage on her head due to her injury earlier that day, does not respond, but simply closes her eyes and turns the ther cheek (literally). After Beth leaves, Heather's Confessional is shown, revealing that she decided on which alliance member to drop: Beth. She states that she had already had suspicious feelings towards Beth, and her "little stunt" that day sealed her fate: She felt that Beth could've directed her out of the way of the Bass' toboggan before it hit her in the head. Since she failed to do this, Heather chose to vote her out over Noah. The entire alliance did so. With the votes of Heather, Lindsay, and Chester against her, opposite Beth's vote for Trent, Trent's useless vote, and Cody and Noah's votes for Heather, Beth was voted out.

Basic Straining
When Chef declared the boot camp challenge, Chester seemed extremely nervous. He then explained in the Confessional that he was forced to take a boot camp one summer by his parents, but "fate was on his side" when he caught a rare disease called Erythema multiforme and had to be evacuated. Later, he tells Heather that he is nervous about going through something as physically demanding as a boot camp, but she tells him to suck it up and that they cannot afford to lose again. During the canoe challenge, Chester already starts to complain about getting tired. Noah, in front of him, can't resist the chance; he insults him loudly in front both teams by saying, "With those noodle-arms, I'm surprised you can lift up a TV remote." Heather, who is standing in front of Noah, promptly kicks him in the groin. Noah screams in pain and collapses, thus letting go of the canoe and getting eliminated from the challenge. When Chef tells him to ring the bell, Noah says that he is in no condition to walk all the way to the Dock just to ring a stupid bell. Chef swiftly grabs Noah by his "britches" and tosses him towards the bell, where his head impacts against the bell and rings it. During the short garbage meal that night, Heather brings Lindsay and Chester over to the far end of the table, away from Cody, Trent, and the bandaged Noah to discuss the plan. Heather says that, with Beth gone, they could possibly be tied with the enemy for numbers in the vote. Heather says that, now, their only option left is to hook Trent into the alliance. She quickly tells both of them to do whatever they can to get him into the alliance, as long as they do it separately. During the Thriller dance challenge, Chester seems much more into it than the previous challenge, as he states that he is an avid Michael Jackson fan. He does well in the dance, and manages to outlast Ezekiel, who drops out after he can't keep up with the others. Geoff berates him for losing, but Ezekiel claims that he's never had to speed-dance before. He says that he's rarely even danced at all. Geoff claims that he must be a sheltered freak for that to be the case, and Ezekiel says, "Who're you calling 'sheltered', eh?" Almost instantly, the two Bass boys get into an all-out brawl, until they are eventually separated by Chef, who clonks their heads together to stop them. He declares that, in addition to "Home-school" being officially eliminated, "Party Animal" is also disqualified due to fighting. He then sends both of them away. In the next challenge, the essay challenge, Chester, Trent, and DJ all pass out while writing their essays, as does Lindsay who can't think of anything to write. Thus, only Heather, Cody, Eva, Katie, and Tyler remain. In the obstacle course challenge, Tyler fails miserably almost immediately when he falls off the wooden wall and dislocates his shoulder. Later, Lindsay is seen in the mess hall with all of the other eliminated campers talking to Trent, who is barely awake. She starts flirting with him again by getting closer to him and complimenting his staying in as long as he did. She also points out what a coincidence it was that they were both eliminated in the same challenge. Trent appears to be too tired to care, but he is seen actually opening one eye wide and glaring at her while she isn't looking. In the Confessional, Trent (fully awake and very angry) states that he won't fall for any of Lindsay's beauty tricks ever again. He says that he still believes Cody more than Chester, and now has a feeling in his gut that, even if there isn't necessarily an alliance, he feels that "Heather is up to no good somehow." The next day, the final four (Heather, Eva, Cody, and Katie) have to dangle upside-down from a tree branch until only one remains. Cody drops out fairly quickly, thus allowing the remaining three to have the advantage of grabbing onto the branch with their hands. Even so, Katie soon drops out, leaving only Eva for the Bass and Heather for the Gophers. At the four-hour mark, Heather starts to show signs of fatigue, but still hangs on. Below them, Chester eventually moves up next to Trent, saying, "Hey...what's up?" However, Trent simply glares at him. Chester, unfazed, starts to say, "So, I've got a proposition for you..." At this statement, Trent suddenly explodes in an uncontrollable rage of cursing towards Chester, rambling on about how he's a "dirty traitor," voted off "so many nice people," and how he couldn't care any less about his "filthy alliance." Trent's outburst alone, let alone his nonstop cursing and death threats, shock Heather into letting go of the branch and falling, thus making Eva and the Bass the winners. When Eva comes down, Chef attempts to congratulate her and shake her hand, only for her to grab his hand and flip him over, saying, "That's for dancing so terrible back there!" Despite Chef's fury towards Eva, the Bass still win. On the Gophers, everyone is still shocked by Trent, while Noah noticeably seems pleased. That night, Chris gives the marshmallows to Cody and Trent first, since they were the only two campers who were not immediate candidates for elimination. The next ones go to Chester and (surprisingly) Heather, thus leaving only Noah and Lindsay. Only then does Chris reveal that, for the first time in Total Drama Island, there has been a tie in the votes; three people voted for Lindsay, while three voted for Noah. Despite protests and worried comments from most people, Chris assures that he has a method to deal with it; everyone else has to re-vote, except for Noah and Lindsay (a possible reference to Survivor). Noah, Cody, and Trent still firmly vote for Lindsay, while Lindsay and Heather vote for Noah. However, Chester decides to vote for Trent, saying that he freaked him out and that he might as well vote him out since they're not friends anymore. Thus, with a majority vote, Lindsay was voted out. This shocks both Heather and Chester, and Lindsay is seen starting to cry. Even so, Trent doesn't seem the least bit affected by it, as does Noah. Only Cody seems to feel pity for her as she walks down the Dock of Shame. In the Confessional, Noah states that it was clearly the "strategically superior" choice to vote Lindsay, since she was the alliance's "hooker;" as in, she used her physical attraction to lure people, such as Trent, in. He stated that, since this was just as much of a threat as Heather's ingenuity, she had to go. Trent and Cody, sharing a Confessional, say that they voted her off because she made Trent feel rather uncomfortable with her flirting just to get him into the alliance. Cody said that, while he thought she herself was a nice person, her kindness and beauty were being used as tools for evil, so they had no choice.

X-Treme Torture
In the beginning, Chris does his flyover, thus scaring Chester into rolling right out of his bed. He reels in pain for a moment before he hears Heather scream in the girls' side. He quickly exits the lodge and races over to the girls' side, to find Heather similarly cowering on the floor. He says that he'll protect her, and starts to move in, only for her to jump back up and shove him away, saying that she can take care of herself. Chris announces the challenges they'll face later, then tells them to go have breakfast first. At breakfast, Ezekiel and Geoff are staring each other down hard. In the Confessional, Geoff says, "The war between me and Home-school is now at the boiling point! Game on, Zeke!" Similarly, Ezekiel expresses a deep hatred for Geoff, still angry over the fight, which he is confident that he would've won had Chef not interfered. Meanwhile, at the Gophers' table, everyone is glaring at Heather and Chester, sitting alone by themselves at the other end of the table. Heather is seen actually cowering slightly, accidentally sliding into Chester's arms. She looks up at him, and he smiles wickedly. She simply grabs his arms and throws them off of him, and tells him to get his head out of his butt and into the game. She reminds him that they desperately need a new strategy, as they are the only two members of the alliance left. She starts rambling off various ideas for what they can do, but Chester simply stares at her, his head resting in his hands. In the Confessional, he states that he is glad to be the only other member of the alliance left along with Heather, as they can be "outcasts together." Chris then announces the first challenge: X-Treme Sofa Bed Skydiving. He has Heather go for the Gophers, and Geoff for the Bass. Heather admits that she is never going to make it, but Geoff comforts her, saying, "Don't worry, dudette! You'll do fine! I know I will!" At this last statement, Heather says, "Oh, really? OK then; you're up first!" She then pushes Geoff off the plane, and he flails and screams wildly the entire way down. Below on the beach, Eva easily manages to pick the mattress up with one hand and put it in place. However, Ezekiel briefly pulls her aside and says that he'll pay her fifty bucks to "accidentally move it over a few feet." She tells him to make it one hundred, to which he reluctantly agrees. Eva moves it over as he said, to the suspicion of DJ. At his questioning, she asks if he's questioning her wisdom, to which he quickly backs down. Geoff, whose parachute deployed successfully, is on his way down. Ezekiel, thinking quickly, says that he needs to use the restroom. He runs off as fast as he can to retrieve his bow and arrows from the lodge. He races back to the beach and hides behind some bushes. He fires one arrow at Geoff's parachute and hits it easily. The hole, despite being very small, is enough to ruin the parachute and send him crashing to the ground. Geoff is taken to the infirmary, swearing to his team that his parachute was working just fine. Despite this, no one else on the team knows what happened, as they never saw the arrow. Ezekiel shares a brief glance with Eva. In the Confessional, she states that she doesn't know what Ezekiel is doing, but she enjoyed seeing "peppy, happy, party boy" suffer, so she was fine with it. Heather then goes next, after some ushering from Chris. She screams wildly as she falls, but manages to deploy her parachute. However, on the beach, only Chester is attempting to move the mattress. He asks the others for help, but they all give him the cold shoulder; literally. Noah asks why they should help either her or him, to which Trent agrees. Chester sees Heather getting closer, and decides to save her himself. He starts running around wildly on the beach trying to catch her. He manages to do so, but it backfires; she lands on him rather fast and hard, and then they are both covered by her parachute. After a few minutes of fumbling around, Heather manages to cut through the parachute with her knife and gasps for breath, looking horrified. Chester merely pops up with a goofy grin. In the Confessional, he is giggly and babbling like an idiot. At one point, he manages to say, "Oh, if the cameras could've seen some of the stuff that happened under there...hee, hee." In the aftermath, Chris decides to declare the Gophers as the winners, since Heather at least had a softer landing than Geoff did. For the second challenge, X-Treme Rodeo Moose Riding, Chris has Cody go for the Gophers and Eva for the Bass. Cody, naturally, has a rather rough time, and is thrown off barely two seconds after the moose is released. Eva is up next, and not only manages to last long enough, but even tames the wild moose, making it literally bow down at her mercy because she scared it so much. The Bass win, thus leaving it as a tie. For the final challenge, X-Treme Seadoo Water Skiing, Chris has Chester ski for the Gophers and Ezekiel drive, and Katie ski for the Bass while Noah drives. Chester ends up failing miserably during the challenge, grabbing one flag, but dropping it when he sideswipes a rock. He barely misses another one, and ends up running over another one. At one point, Ezekiel considers sabotaging his rival Gopher, but after seeing him fail, looks straight at the camera and shrugs. In the end, Chester got only one flag. Katie goes up next, and does fairly well, grabbing three flags by the halfway mark of the challenge. Noah tries to taunt her, saying, "Having a nice ride, sweetheart?" To which she replies, "Oh yeah! The mud's actually nice and warm!" She then starts to go off on a story about how she and Sadie once ended up in a mud pit with no clothes on a dare, which distracts her for the rest of the challenge; she blows right past every single other flag. Nonetheless, the three that she had collected by that point already upstaged Chester's one flag, and thus won the task, and the overall challenge, for the Bass. That night at the Bonfire Ceremony, it comes down to Noah and Heather. Not surprisingly, Noah receives the final marshmallow and Heather is eliminated. She starts to protest, to the point where Chef has to threaten her to get a move on. She starts storming off with everyone else waving goodbye sarcastically, but Chester races up to her and asks what will happen to him. She states that she could care less now that she's out of the game. But Chester quickly spins her around and kisses her, saying he'll miss her. The kiss sends Heather into a catatonic state, to the point where Chef has to pick her up and carry her to the Boat of Losers. Chester waves goodbye and rubs his lips thoughfully as Heather's motionless body is carried off into the night.

Brunch of Disgustingness
When Chester arrives at the Gophers' table for breakfast that morning, sitting away from the other boys, he seems very upset and depressed. When Chris comes in and declares that the teams are officially eliminated, Chester is seen to be extremely relieved. He states how relieved he is in the Confessional, saying, "On that team, with my angel gone, I was pretty much screwed." Chris then tells the Bass boys to move into the former Gophers' lodge (now the boys' lodge), and for the only two remaining girls, Eva and Katie, to stay in the former Bass lodge (now the girls' lodge). When the Bass boys arrive, they find Chester off to the side away from the others. DJ, sensing something is wrong, asks Chester why he's away from the others. Noah quickly interrupts and says that it's because he was aligned with "that evil conniving witch Heather." However, the newcomers don't know what he's talking about, since, as established earlier, they never saw or heard of any examples of Heather's antagonistic ways. Chester, realizing this, sees his one last chance at survival. He quickly tells the newcomers to not listen to Noah, as he is "a lazy, sarcastic, cynical jerk." They do believe this, as they had seen examples of Noah's laziness and overall personality back in the dodgeball game. Thus, they side with Chester, much to the anger and disappointment of Noah and his entire alliance. Later, when they return to the main lodge and Chris announces the challenge, most of the guys seem nervous about the challenge, with the exceptions bing Tyler, Geoff, and Ezekiel. Opposite them, Eva is perfectly confident that she'll win, as she practically eats nails in a bowl for breakfast...without any milk. Katie seems more nervous about the challenge itself, as the girls are totally outnumbered. At this, Chris says that they will have to swtich off, so that they each do a pattern of every other round: Katie, Eva, Katie, Eva, and so on. In the challenge, Eva lives up to her word, as she easily passes each and every round and smokes every guy she is against, thus winning rounds 1, 3, and 5 for the girls. However, Katie, being the opposite of Eva and very weak-stomached, loses rounds 2, 4, and 6. Thus, the game is tied 3 - 3. For the final challenge, it's dolphin hot dogs. Eva is up once again for the girls, and Geoff (who turns out to be the wildest eater for the guys) is up for the guys. They both do well, but Eva easily wins, thus earning the cruise prize for herself and Katie.

No Pain, No Game
On the beach, most of the boys are divided. Chester, having learned of the feud between Ezekiel and Geoff, has ultimately chosen to side with Geoff, as he seems more popular. DJ states that he is also with Geoff due to Geoff being his friend, and since he still has the incident in the extreme skydiving challenge in mind. Thus, the three of them are at one end of the Dock, relaxing on lounges, while Ezekiel and Tyler (the latter siding with Ezekiel for the same reason; being his friend) are at the opposite end, fishing (until Tyler suddenly gets yanked in by a massive tug on his line). Ezekiel and Geoff simply glare at each other before returning to their activities. Over on the beach, Trent, Cody, and Noah are relaxing together, but glaring at Chester, who glares back. Suddenly, the girls arrive on their yacht, freshened, relaxed, and ready for more. Just then, Chris's voice on the loudspeakers reminds the campers that the teams are officially dissolved. Noah yells back that they couldn't care any less. Chris, unfazed, replies that, to make things more interesting, he'll be bringing back two old campers. At first, Noah reminds him that he said they could never come back, to which Chris simply continues, ignoring him. The first returning camper, much to the shock of Ezekiel and Geoff, is Bridgette. They stare at her in a mix of shock and joy, before glaring back at each other. She arrives in a most pleasant manner and greets both of them happily, still completely unaware of their war over her. They both weakly greet her before Chris announces returning camper number two: None other than Heather. At first, she is extremely angry upon her arrival. Chester starts to approach her eagerly, only for her to shove him down, much to the confusion of the others. However, he quickly gets back up and tells her how glad he is to see her. She only tells him that she's out for revenge on those who voted her off. When the Bass boys seemed confused at her behavior, Chester yanks her aside, away from everyone else, and offers to give her a rundown of te situation. To this, she reluctantly agrees. He informs her of the feud between the former Bass boys over Bridgette, resulting in two separate alliances of two. He tells her how he's aligned with Geoff and DJ against Ezekiel and Tyler, as they're obviously more popular. Heather notes his ingenuity, and admits that DJ is physically very strong and a tough competitor, while Geoff is at least always willing to take any challenge. She compliments him on making the right choice. Before she leaves, he quickly adds how the Bass boys have no idea of her acts in the past, and how they're currently more willing to listen to him than to Noah and his group, which serves as a brilliant opportunity for them. He adds that behavior like hers on the Dock could ruin their cover, to which she realizes her mistake and thanks him for the info. She leaves, already starting to come up with a plan. Chris then announces the challenge and has them all report to the amphitheater. He gives them their challenge of "Say Uncle." One by one, the campers are eliminated by the various challenges until it comes down to two: Heather and Eva. Heather is determined to win solo invincibility for herself, as is Eva. Eva dares Heather to do the challenge of wrestling an alligator. Everyone else, even Chris and Chef, believe that Heather will surely die. However, much to their surprise, she puts up a good fight, mainly driven by her competitiveness and anger. She actually manages to beat the gator to a pulp, in addition to lasting far beyond the required ten second-minimum. Thus, she wins Invincibility. Later that night, prior to voting, Heather is seen approaching Eva, who is still angry that Heather beat her. However, Heather tells her that she has a proposition for her as to who she should vote for. After telling her, Eva has a brief, evil laugh and says that she'll be glad to vote that person off again. As Heather thanks her and walks away smugly, Chester is seen similarly talking to Katie behind the girls' lodge. That night, the bottom two is Chester and Bridgette. Everyone seems to think Chester will go, as Chester is shaking nervously and Bridgett seems fairly relaxed. However, they are all absolutely shocked when Chester receives the final marshmallow, and Bridgette is voted off again. She starts crying, but ultimately manages to suck it up and head down to the Boat of Losers. Behind her, Geoff and Ezekiel are too shocked to try to say goodbye to her, or even wave. Both look extremely depressed and hang their heads. Chris calls this "the most shocking elimination yet, and how it must suck to be Bridgette" then signs off the episode. Before the camera blacks out, several marshmallows start pelting him from off-screen.

Search and Do Not Destroy
At breakfast that morning, Geoff and Ezekiel are still completely devastated over the result's of the previous elimination. For the first time since their war began, they look up at each other without death glares. Ezekiel simply starts to ask, "Did you have...anything to do with...?" To which Geoff answers before he finishes, "No way, dude!" Geoff states that he is just as upset as Ezekiel. Ezekiel admits that he believes this, and hangs his head for a moment longer. He then looks back up at Geoff and asks if maybe, just maybe, they could form a truce and work together to find out who voted out Bridgette. Geoff agrees to this eagerly, without the slightest bit of reluctance, and they shake hands. In the Confessional, Geoff declares, "Negative dude or dudette who voted out our babe; better watch out! 'Cause Detectives Geoff and Zeke will find you!" Beside them, Chester hears every word of it. He decides to slip out and privately alert Heather, in her luxurious trailer, of the truce. He seems quite worried that they have now joined forces, but Heather looks thoughtful. Then, after a moment, she seems just fine with it and tells him to not worry. She says that this could be used to their advantage. When Chester still doesn't understand, she says to trust him. Chester agrees. After a silent moment, he starts to say, "You know...with the two of us alone, in this nice, private trailer...do you think we could-." He doesn't get to finish, as Heather kicks him out (literally). However, moments later, she is blown away from her trailer when Chris's cannonball hits it, destroying the trailer. Heather flies and ends up landing right on top of Chester, who grins wickedly once more. She rolls off him in disgust and brushes off some of the ash. Chris announces the day's challenge once they all arrive at the amphitheater. Chris gives them their various assignments: Tyler's key is between two alligators; Trent's key is guarded by three sharks; Noah's key is guarded by a vicious bunny; Katie's key is on a tree branch; Heather's key is attached to a bear; Geoff's key is in a skunk hole; Ezekiel's key is in a bee hive; Eva's key is in Chef's kitchen; Chester's key is guarded by a giant snake; Cody's key is in the septic tank; and DJ's key is in a flaming hoop. Trent manages to get his key easily, as does Noah (who fools his bunny using a giant carrot). DJ, though afraid of fire, finds that he is tall enough to simply reach into the hoop and grab the key without even being singed. Ezekiel shoots the bee hive with an arrow, then hides in a nearby tree trunk. The bees swarm right past his hiding place, and he runs back and snatches his key. Eva simply walks right into Chef's kitchen, confronting Chef holding a cleaver. He raises the cleaver and tells her to get out, or else the other ten campers will be eating fresh, rare steak tomorrow. Eva, unfazed, swiped the cleaver from his hand like lightning and slices his chef's hat into three pieces. Chef runs away screaming like a little girl. Katie manages to retrieve her key easily, as she recalls (in the Confessional) how she and Sadie once climbed a tree that was, "like, 50 stories tall!" Geoff sticks his hand into the skunk hole blindly and pulls out both the key and a skunk by its tail, which promptly blasts him. Chester sees the snake, then mutters to himself that he is willing to do anything to win. Moments later, he is running around wildly and screaming with the snake wrappd around him and the key in his hand. He ends up running right past Heather, who is pacing repeatedly in front of the entrance to the bear's cave, trying to figure out what to do. Chester runs right into the sleeping bear, which awakens. It closes its massive mouth around him and seemingly eats him, but is then revealed to have bitten and killed the snake, thus allowing Chester to escape with barely a scratch. As he struggled with the bear, the key fell loose and landed in his hand. He runs out screaming with both keys until Heather has to trip him. She starts scolding him, but then sees that he has her key as well. She gasps and swipes it, stunned beyond belief that he got it and lived. She awkwardly thanks him and leaves, leaving Chester still on the ground with his key. Just then, Chris announces the end of the challenge and tells them to come back. At the amphitheater, the others see Cody for the first time since the challenge began; covered in sewage and smelling worse than Geoff. He says, "Some of the things I saw in there...", then shivers. However, he then reveals his key, saying, "Being scrawny can have its advantages, you know." Chris starts to tell them to open their chests, until Ezekiel interrupts and asks where Tyler is. At that moment, he comes running up screaming, covered in bruises, scratches, and bite marks, and with his clothes torn and tattered. He says that he'd never seen anything so ferocious in his life, but it was worth it to get the key. However, much to his dismay, his key is the dud that doesn't open anything. The others all get worthless items that were definitely not worth it, except for Noah, who gets the Invincibility Pass. Chris says that, besides Noah, anyone else can be voted off. Chester talks to Heather and expresses his anger about Noah being Invincibile. However, Heather says that it's probably better, as he relies completely on brains rather than brawn, and will easily fail the next major physical challenge. Besides that, his sarcasm and poor, selfish attitude has already earned him the solid distrust of the other guys, ranking him very low, if not at the very bottom, on the popularity list. She then proposes who they do eliminate, saying that he is much stronger and more capable physically, in addition to being more charismatic and more likeable. Chester asks how they'll get him voted off, as they don't really have the majority in numbers for the vote. Heather smiles her trademarked smile and tells him to trust her. That night, the bottom two is between Heather and Trent. Chris establishes that, in his opinion, the outcome of the vote was a real shocker for the second time in a row, which immediately worries Noah, Cody, and Trent, and makes it less surprising to them when Heather receives the final marshmallow. Trent starts to ask why he was eliminated, only for Geoff to suddenly have an outburst and say, "That's what you get for voting off Bridgette, jerk!" Trent immediately asks what he's talking about, only for Heather to interject and tell them to not believe him, as that's just what he would say. Geoff confirms that he, as well as all of the other Bass boys, won't be listening to him. Trent is speechless, and only when Tyler tells him to get a move on or else they'll have to "mess him up," does Trent finally turn and leave, still shocked. Noah and Cody are both left gaping. Geoff and Ezekiel share a Confessional, both telling Trent to take that. DJ and Tyler also share a Confessional, saying that they would do anything to end the fight and make Geoff and Zeke friends again. DJ says that if voting off Trent was what it took, then they had no problem doing it, even though he thought that Trent was a nice guy. Tyler tells him that he obviously wasn't, if he was the kind of guy who would orchestrate Bridgette's elimination just because she was a threat due to her popularity. Heather is next, alone, and simply smiles triumphantly, stating that she could hear the last two Confessionals from the outside, and that they spoke for themselves.

Hide and Be Sneaky
Cody and Noah are sitting alone at one table, while everyone else is literally talking, laughing, and having a good time at the other table. Cody asks Noah what they're going to do. Noah simply tells him that all they can do is win Invincibility as many times as they can, like Noah did last week. He says that, while none of the others suspect either of them of anything, Heather could easily use tactics similar to what she did to get rid of Trent to get rid of them, too. He warns his partner that they'll need to stay on high alert. Chris gives them their challenge on the Dock. Chester asks what the worst that Chef's water gun can do to them is, to which Chef gladly demonstrates on him, slamming him up against the lifeguard chair. Subsequently, when Chris tells them to go, Chester has a slow start. Almost instantly after starting, Chef finds Cody and Noah as they attempt to hide underneath the boys' lodge. Cody says that he is throwing in the towel and knows he will most likely go home tonight, but Noah reminds him that there is one more way to win Invincibility. The two split up and go to search for the others to help Chef. At one point, Chester and DJ both climb the roof of the main lodge. They see each other, and almost instantly start to argue over whose hiding spot the roof is. However, the weak roof soon caves in after DJ stomps his foot hard in anger, and both of them fall straight into the main lodge, crushing Noah. The crumpled Noah manages to crawl to the door and yell out to Chef, who is nearby, that he found two people. Chef runs up and finds both DJ and Chester, still in a piled mess, sprays them both, and curtly thanks the bookworm for his help before turning and leaving. Noah smiles triumphantly, knowing now that he has Invincibility. He rubs it in the soaking-wet Chester's face, who growls at him. Meanwhile, Cody is wandering aound aimlessly in the woods, looking for someone. He trips on a bump in the ground, which is revealed to be Ezekiel hiding under a sheet of fake grass. He quickly starts to panic and begs that Cody doesn't rat him out. Cody starts to consider it, then quickly remembers something and sees his chance. He then starts trying to explain to Ezekiel how Trent was not at fault for Bridgette's elimination. But at the very mention of Trent, Ezekiel's face grows hard. Cody stammers and babbles repeatedly, trying to explain to Ezekiel the truth behind the situation, including Heather and Chester being the true culprits. Ezekiel remains doubtful, since he has known Chester longer than Cody, even if for a short time. But before he can respond, Chef appears and is ready to douse them, but sees Cody, who he already got, and sees Ezekiel still on all fours on the ground below Cody. He reluctantly thanks Cody, saying that Cody found him first, before dousing Zeke. He promptly leaves before Cody can get a word in edge-wise. Ezekiel glares at him, feeling betrayed. The camera then moves up into the branches high above them to reveal Heather, who had been watching and listening the entire time. She mumbles to herself that Cody will go down soon. However, Chef, with his super-human hearing, hears her and quickly aims up into the branches. The blast misses Heather, but is enough to shock her into falling off the branch and onto the ground below. She jumps to her feet and tries to run, but Chef aims and blasts again, hitting her the second time and eliminating her. Heather then storms off towards the campgrounds. Meanwhile, Geoff is revealed to be hiding in the septic tank, while Tyler is hiding in the bear cave. However, Chef finds the trail of footprints, recognizing the unique design of the type of track shoes Tyler wears, and quickly finds him. Later, he finds Katie hiding behind a cluster of rocks on the beach. Eventually, it comes down to Eva and Geoff (the former of whom is hiding on the underside of the Dock by holding onto the beams of the understructure). Chef takes a quick break and leans against the wall of the Communal Washrooms, only to hear the faint sound of gasping and hacking, followed by a groan. He leans his head against the metal pipe running outside the wall, which leads into the septic tank. He hears Geoff more clearly this time, and digs his way down with a shovel. He manages to break into the tank and yank Geoff out, only for the party animal to be quite grateful to be free, saying he's never going to hide in there again. Chef thinks that's everyone, but then realizes that Eva is missing. He then realizes that he's checked everywhere but the water. He and the other nine campers race down to the Dock. Chef stands on the end and looks around for a moment before hearing a cough. His eyes widen right before the Dock bursts open right beneath his feet, the blur that is Eva flying right out and knocking him right into the lake. She then runs to the lifeguard chair and tags it, making her safe as well. Chef emerges on the surface of the lake, having dropped his gun, and silently vows revenge on the tough girl. Chris then reappears, declaring Cody, Noah, and Eva as the day's Invincibility-winners. Once again, Chester is infuriated by Noah's win, but Heather tells him to stay calm, because she has a Plan B. That night, the final two comes down to Katie and DJ. Both seem extremely nervous, as do Tyler, Geoff, and Ezekiel. However, the final marshmallow goes to Katie, eliminating DJ. This shocks just about everyone, except for Heather, Chester, and Eva. He is depressed at first, but then lightens up and kindly bids farewell to Total Drama Island and to everyone. Tyler, Geoff, and Ezekiel all especially say goodbye to their friend before he leaves. The votes are then shown, revealing that, for the second time, Chester and Heather have conned both Eva and Katie into voting with them, this time against DJ. Ezekiel voted for Eva, while Tyler, Geoff, and DJ voted for Katie. And, of course, Noah and Cody voted for Chester. Heather stated that it was the best choice, as, next to Eva, DJ was the strongest camper on the island. But the quality he had that Eva lacked was popularity, as Chester had said. And major popularity at that. Thus, he was too big of a threat and had to go, at least since Cody and Noah both had Invincibility. Eva admitted that, like with Bridgette, DJ was too big of a softy, and if there's one thing she can't stand, it's softy-types.

That's Off the Chain!
That morning, a majority of the contestants are relaxing. Geoff, Tyler, Ezekiel, Katie, and Chester are having fun playing frisbee on the beach. Cody and Noah are both on lounges reading magazines. Eva is working out, and Heather is getting a tan. The five playing frisbee seem to be getting along, but Ezekiel is wary of Chester, saying in the Confessional that he has a strange feeling that he was somehow behind DJ's elimination last week. But he ultimately decides to keep quiet and not tell anyone else. Chris then brings them all to the Arts and Crafts Center for their challenge. When he explains the bike-building part, Chester and Ezekiel seem nervous, as neither of them know much about bikes. But Tyler offers to help Ezekiel, making the home-schooler feel better, especially when Tyler says he knows everything about bikes. They all get started. Noah, Cody, Geoff, and Eva all have little trouble making their bikes (and making them very sturdy and fast, at that), while Katie, Heather, Chester are a little more nervous and don't know much. Tyler starts trying to build a bike for Ezekiel, but it ends up collapsing multiple times, in addition to him constantly hurting himself with the equipment. Ezekiel starts to have second thoughts about pairing up with Tyler. Geoff, noticing Ezekiel's problem, offers to let him tag along on his bike. Ezekiel quickly agrees, but confirms that Geoff will be doing all the driving. Geoff says he will, but asks why. Ezekiel says that he's never ridden a bike before in his life. Geoff is shocked, but says that this challenge will be just the thing Zeke needs in order to be filled in on all the "awesomeness" he's been missing his whole life. Thus, they pair up. Tyler notices this, realizing now that he is alone, and decides to ask Eva if they could pair up (although he does so quite awkwardly). Eva reluctantly agrees, saying that she'll be doing all the driving, to which Tyler agrees. This leaves Chester, Heather, and Katie bikeless. However, Heather asks Chester if he's up for some dismantling. Chester seems ecstatic about this (to the point where Heather has to quiet him down to prevent him from blowing their cover), claiming that he's dismantled stuff all the time. Heather is glad to hear it, and then gives him a wrench and his assignment: tear down Chef's prized motorcycle and build a better bike with it. Chester agrees, saying that he'll do what he can. He manages to finish a surprisingly well-built, two-seater bicycle for him and Heather just as Chris arrives to inspect their bikes. He says that, while all of the pairs are unexpected, he says that it will make for more drama. But he notices Katie, partner-less and bikeless, and tells her that she must have one or the other. He says that, since the challenge must begin soon and she doesn't have enough time to build a bike, she must pair up with either Noah or Cody. Cody quickly says that his bike is way too small for two people. She then turns to Noah, whose bike is considerably large enough for both of them, especially considering how scrawny they both are. Noah starts to say no way, but Chris tells him that he has to. Noah reluctantly agrees, and he and Katie pair up. Thus, the teams are formed: Katie and Noah; Geoff and Ezekiel; Eva and Tyler; Heather and Chester; and Cody by himself. Chris then has the unexpected bike switch, with the following results: Eva and Tyler get Heather and Chester's bike; Chester and Heather get Geoff and Ezekiel's bike; Noah and Katie get Eva and Tyler's bike; Geoff and Ezekiel get Noah and Katie's bike (thus forcing them to squeeze tightly onto it); and Cody manages to stay with his own bike. Chris then begins the first round to determine who will move onto the elimination round. Eva and Tyler do stunningly well, as do Geoff and the screaming Ezekiel. Noah and Katie seem to be doing well, too, until they end up sideswiping Chester and Heather on Geoff and Ezekiel's bike. The impact sends Chester and Heather veering off into the rock wall, and Noah and Katie spinning out of control until they finally flip over. Katie asks Noah if he is alright, only to find out that he is unconscious. Geoff and Ezekiel race over the finish line first, with Eva and Tyler right behind them. Cody eventually manages to finish as well, thus placing himself, Heather, Chester, Noah, and Katie in the elimination round, much to the disappointment of Eva, Geoff, and Tyler, respectively. In the final round, Noah (who has finally woken up since the first crash) and Katie do even better than before, gaining the lead on their opponents. Katie cheers in celebration when they are nearing the finish line and hugs Noah out of her excitement. This shocks Noah so much that he loses control and rides right over one of the explosives, disintegrating their bike and ruining both their chances of winning. They land on the ground as a charred mess, Katie still holding onto Noah (only now, it is out of fear). Cody, Chester, and Heather race by, both teams on a bee-line for the finish. They are side-by-side right alongside the tar pool when Heather decides to end Cody's running in the race. She rams to the side, her much more powerful and sturdy bike easily knocking his into the tar and ruining it. Both Chester and Heather are then faced with the piranha pool before they can win. Chester declares that they are going to win, until Heather, at the last second, presses the special red button and sends her bike literally flying, rocketing over the piranha pool. Chester ends up falling off due to the sudden increase in speed landing just centimeters from the edge of the pool. She flies over the finish line, seemingly triumphant and very smug about it. However, Chris comes up to her and says that he loves to ruin her parade of winning: since her other two opponents, not to mention her partner, ended up crashing, none of the four of them even technically finished the race, thus leaving her as, technically, both the first and the last person to cross the finish line. Heather gets the obvious implication and starts angrily screaming and protesting, saying that Chris can't possibly eliminate her since she won fair and square. Chester backs her up, still on the ground in pain. Chris says that Heather is right, but otherwise there would be no elimination, which makes it boring. So he officially declares her eliminated. She explodes into a fit of rage and refuses to go anywhere, saying that Chris will be hearing from her lawyers. But Chris has Chef pick her up and carry her to the Boat of Losers in front of everyone, much to the satisfaction of Noah and Cody and the amusement and bewilderment of everyone else. As she rides off into the sunset, Chester says that he'll see her in the finale. Before she finally vanishes over the horizon, Heather asks if she's suffered enough. Chris says, "We'll see," before signing off.

Hook, Line, and Screamer
The campers are watching the horror movie. Ezekiel seems horrified, not by the movie itself, but by some of the stuff that is put in the movie. He said that the movies he watches at home aren't so...gorey. Geoff tells him that, like with the bike, he just needs to live a little more. Tyler agrees, saying that he loves horror movies (only to scream like a girl and hide behind his seat when he sees the killer appear on-screen). Cody and Chester are both similarly scared by some parts, with Eva telling him that he is a wimp and Noah constantly pointing out how fake the intestines look. At the slasher scene in the very end, Katie jumps into Noah's arms in fright, much to his shock and subsequent annoyance. He attempts to drop her, only for her to cling onto him like a leech. He manages to pry her off just as Geoff asks where Chris is and when their challenge is supposed to be. They hear the Boat's engine and go to the Dock, only for Chris and Chef to leave in a hurry. Chester picks up the dropped newspaper and reads it aloud, scaring most of the campers. The only one who isn't fazed is Noah, who says that this is Chris's most pathetic attempt at scaring them yet, and that it is obviously a challenge. Eva says, "Challenge or not, if there's any 'psycho killer' out there, I'll go psycho all over him!" Noah insists that it's all just a challenge, and that, despite the cheesiness of it all, they need to start getting a plan together. Cody, Ezekiel, and Chester agree, and the eight head back to the Bonfire. Noah does a basic Q and A, asking the others what they know. Geoff, a self-proclaimed "horror movie expert," says that they just need to stay in groups of three or more and stay out of the woods in order to survive. Tyler agrees. Noah then writes down Rules 1 and 2 on his own notepad: 1) Stay in groups of three or more, and 2) Stay out of woods. He adds a third rule, "never leave the campgrounds," just for good measure. However, Katie says that she needs to use the restroom, to which Chester says the same thing. Noah facepalms before asking if anyone wants to go with the two of them. Geoff, Tyler, Ezekiel, and Cody immediately back down. Cody reminds Noah that if he's so confident that there's no danger, he should go. Noah finally gives in and agrees to go with Chester and Katie. Noah leaves Geoff in charge of the group while he' s gone. As the trio head towards the Communal Washrooms, Noah and Katie end up walking ahead of Chester, who intentionally falls back, especially when Katie starts distracting Noah. She asks Noah if he'll protect her if the psycho appears. Noah says he would if there was a real psycho. Katie asks if he believes, even the slightest bit in the back of his mind, that the killer could possibly be real. Noah simply replies, "Not a chance." Eventually, Chester falls back completely, doubling back and hiding in some bushes. In the Confessional, he states that leaving Noah and Katie alone in the woods would single them out, since they were a group less than three, far away enough from the others, and could be considered a couple, since it's a guy and a girl. He adds that the "couples are always the first to go in horror pics." However, while he is watching them recede from the bushes, the killer appears right behind him. He notices only at the last second and screams loudly, sending flocks of birds flying and everyone else's heads turning. Moments later, he is brought into the control tent, where Chris informs him that he is alright, and the killer is just Chef. Now, he will get to watch the entire episode unfold from the safety and omnipresence of the control tent. Chef then leaves. Katie and Noah, finally realizing that Chester is gone, figure out what must've happened. Katie looks worried, and Noah seems frightened at first, but it turns to a brief look of satisfaction when he realizes that Chester is gone. Katie sees the grin and asks why he's smiling. He starts to explain how he's been trying to get Chester off his back since day one...literally. However, the killer appears before them. They both scream and run into the woods, eventually seeking safety in an empty cave with zero visibility. After a moment, Noah realizes that Katie is holding onto him once again. He annoyedly tells her to get off of him, but she says that she can't, as she's too scared. Before Noah can reply, they hear breathing and see another pair of eyes behind them, followed by the sound of a chainsaw. Moments later, they are both in the control tent. Katie is still holding onto Noah. Chris tells them that they are safe, and that it was all part of the challenge. Noah tells him that he told him so, to which Chris is annoyed and shushes him up. He turns back to the monitors, ignoring Noah's further comments. Noah tells Katie that she can let go now, but she is too scared to hear him. Back at the campgrounds, Cody tells them that the scream was obviously Chester, and he was most likely caught by the killer, so they can eliminate him. Geoff says that there are now seven of them left, until Tyler suddenly comes running up. They ask where he had been, and he says that he was just at the Communal Washrooms, and there is no sign of either Noah or Katie. Geoff admits that they must eliminate them too, and he is now the acting leader of the group. However, Cody notices that Ezekiel is suddenly gone. They look around, with no sign of the homeschooler. It shows Ezekiel entering the main lodge in search of food. He enters the kitchen and finds a tray of brownies. He quickly takes them and starts to leave, only to run into the psycho killer. He is scared at first, but then admits that he faced off against a burglar, alone, in his own house when he was twelve. He starts to raise a weak fist, only for the killer to slice his hat in two with the chainsaw. Ezekiel is then seen in the control tent, in the fetal position and wimpering while everyone else enjoys his brownies. Chris compliments him for bringing in the brownies, only for Ezekiel to mutter, "He didn't have to chop my toque, eh." Chef then heads back out. Back at the Bonfire, Geoff says that Zeke is as good as dead, so he can be scratched out. Moments later, a gust of wind blow his lucky hat off, prompting him to immediately chase after it. Eva, watching him vanish into the woods, says that he's a goner. Moments later, Geoff is seen finding his hat on a tree branch. He takes it off and looks inside for a moment to see if there is any damage. He sees none, and starts to put it back on. However, the moment he lifts his hat out of his field of vision, he sees the killer right in front of him. He screams loudly and passes out, carried to the tent by Chef. Eva, hearing Geoff's scream, simply says, "What'd I tell you?" to the remaining two campers: Cody and Tyler. She decides to take charge, saying that as long as they stay with her, they'll both survive. Cody, however, is extremely nervous now that they are down to three. She tells him not to worry, but they soon hear a long exhale of breath from the bushes. Cody screams, wets his pants, and takes off into the woods, eventually running right into the control tent with the others. Only Eva and Tyler are left. Eva tells him to just stay alert and let her know if he sees anything out of the ordinary. Tyler then says, "You mean like him?!", pointing behind Eva with a terrified look on his face. She turns around and sees the killer looming above her. She dives out of the way as his chainsaw comes down, rolling off to the side in the dirt. She recovers and looks back at the killer just in time to see him pick up the defenseless Tyler. She jumps to her feet and charges, leaping towards the killer. However, he simply ducks and she flies over him, crashing into the rock wall beside the Bonfire area. When she recovers from the slight blow and looks back, the killer and Tyler are both gone. Eva is the sole survivor. Realizing this, she charges for the main lodge, and instantly starts setting it up as her own fortress in an attempt to stake out a rematch with the killer. She bars all exits, and prepares. However, someone is in the lodge with her. Back in the control tent, everyone is there but Eva. Chris tells them that Eva has won the challenge, and they can all leave. However, Tyler points out someone bearing a striking resemblance to Chef looming behind Eva on the screen. They see that it is the real killer, and all nine of them race out and head for the main lodge. They reach it, only to find the door barred. Chef manages to tear through it with his chainsaw, allowing them to get inside. However, they are met with an incredible and fairly unexpected sight: The killer, beaten, bloody, brusied, scratched, and motionless, on the floor of the lodge. Eva is literally standing over him, a foot on his body, and the chainsaw, mask, and hook in one hand. They all congratulate her on her victory, to which she says that it was nothing. That night, Chris declares that Eva has won solo Invincibility for the night, and that Cody has been eliminated, due to wetting his pants and fleeing when the psycho wasn't even there. Cody starts to leave, then turns back and asks if he'll be missed. However, much to his shock, the general consensus is no. Geoff, scratching the back of his head, admits that he really doesn't know the "little dude" well. Tyler agrees with a "What he said." Katie shrugs. Eva turns the other cheek. Chester can only shake his head. Ezekiel reminds him how he ratted him out in the Hide and Seek challenge, so he really didn't like him that much in the first place. He then runs up to Noah, asking if he'll miss him. Noah says that he thought of Cody as nothing more than a partner, as in a member of his alliance. To this, everyone simultaneously yells "WHAT?!" in surprise. Noah winces, remembering how the alliance was secret. He quickly ends the conversation by saying that, while Cody's elimination ended the alliance, he still only cares that he himself is still in the game. Cody, hurt, alone, betrayed, humiliated, defeated, and friendless, turns and leaves without another sound, save for the soft sound of his sobbing. As he leaves, Chris says that even he has to admit that that was pretty harsh, but he ultimately doesn't care as he long as he still gets paid.

Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
In the Confessional, Chester states that he is excited to be in the final seven now. He feels that he made it by on pure luck, and it was even more lucky that he survived last week. He knows that, with the entire alliance gone except him, he is going to go soon. He, along with the other six, are suddenly trapped by a massive wooden cage. However, Eva easily manages to destroy it in under three seconds and frees them. This greatly angers Chris when he arrives, saying that it took him two weeks to build that cage, and then asks if they can have even just a little fun. Nonetheless, he tells Chef to get started on a new cage, and brings the contestants into the main lodge for breakfast. Only Eva eats her paste without complaint before Chris explains the day's challenge. Eva says she can catch any animal with her hands tied behind her back, and her eyes blindfolded. That is when Chris tells her that the animal must be unharmed, which annoys Eva. They are then taken to the boathouse and given their assignments: Tyler must catch a frog; Noah must catch a beaver; Katie has to catch a chipmunk; Geoff has to catch a duck; Ezekiel has to catch a deer; Eva has to catch a bear; and Chester gets the raccoon. Ezekiel is confident that he can win this, as he and his father have gone hunting multiple times. Eva reminds him that the animals must be unharmed, but he says that he'll be able to work around that no problem. The campers then get their sixty seconds inside the Boat House. Ezekiel finds the net, then leaves, stating confidently that this will be all he'll need. Similarly, Eva stays outside, saying that all she needs to catch a bear is her own strength. Chester manages to find the tranquilizer gun, much to Noah's dismay. Katie, finding only a burlap sack, asks Noah if he would team up with her, just for today, since she needs some serious help. She starts to say that she's never done this before, but Noah interrupts her with the same thing. However, he says that he doesn't need experience to win this kind of thing, as he can make quick, clever, and accurate calculations of certain animals' behavior; how they'll react, what they'll do, what bait they'll go for and what they won't. He says that he'll help Katie, but only because she got the only burlap sack in the Boat House. This leaves Tyler and Geoff. Geoff manages to find the small container of duck bait, and Tyler eventually finds a fishing net. Chris then has the camprss line up with their equipment and prepare to go. Before they leave, he tells them the prizes: Winner gets the gourmet dinner, while the loser has to clean the Communal Washrooms. Eva simply tells him to get on with it, to which Chris gives them (specifically, Eva) one last reminder: the first person to harms their animal, even in the slightest, is automatically eliminated. The campers then head off for the challenge. Almost immediately, Ezekiel stumbles upon a doe, grazing in a field. With then net and his bow and arrows in hand, he starts climbing up a nearby tree to set up a trap. Meanwhile, Noah and Katie approach the beaver's dam. Noah tells Katie to start pounding on the side of the dam and make as much noise as she can. She does so, and the three beavers inside all turn in the direction of the noise. Noah then slowly and quietly rises up in the small hole, sack ready. He quickly places it over a beaver, catching it, then seals the bag up tight and sinks back down into the hole. He emerges from the water outside the dam, declaring that he has caught a beaver. Katie asks if they can go catch her a chipmunk now, but Noah says that he must first return the beaver to the cage back at the Bonfire area. The two of them head off. Meanwhile, Ezekiel has successfully set up his trap: a net hanging from a tree branch by one rope. He readies his bow and arrow and waits for the unsuspecting doe to walk under it. Once it's in position, he fires the arrow, snapping right through the single rope and dropping the net onto the doe, trapping it. Ezekiel then jumps down with a victory cry, grabs the tied-up doe, and, after tying all ends of the net to secure it, starts making his way back to camp. Chris is seen sitting on a wooden stump by the Bonfire, enjoying some coffee. He then hears Noah yelling for him to open the cage, which he does, allowing Noah to arrive and dump his beaver in. Chris congratulates him and tells him that he has won the gourmet dinner. Noah and Katie both celebrate, until Chris tells Katie that only Noah gets it. She understands, with great depression, then asks Noah if he'll still be able to help her catch her chipmunk. He says he will...once he is done eating. Noah is then seated at the long table before the elegant meal, and Katie slips off into the woods, unnoticed by Noah, with the burlap sack in hand. It then shows Tyler confronting a frog, net in hand. He starts to sneak up on it, saying, "OK, little frog dude! Just come to Tyler, and everything will be cool!" He then raises the net and brings it down. Just as Noah starts to eat, Ezekiel yells for Chris to open the cage. However, Ezekiel takes a long time getting there, as he says that the doe is heavier than he thought. He finally manages to wrestle it in and free it of its net. He starts to celebrate, only for Noah to tell him that he's already won. Moments later, Katie arrives with the smuggest of looks on her face, and the burlap sack, noticeably with the top sealed and something bulging inside, in hand. Noah asks if she's ready to go get her stupid chipmunk now, but she says that won't be necessary. She then walks over to the cage calmly, opens it, and dumps out the contents: the chipmunk. Noah, stunned, asks how she did it. However, she says nothing more than "By the way, thanks for all the help," before strutting off. Ezekiel, nearby, nudges Noah and says "Smooth, eh" in a sarcastic tone. Noah simply looks down at his food, the slighest look of shame on his face. Moments later, they hear Tyler screaming and running into the campgrounds. They see him approaching, muddy and battered, and swiping repeatedly at a bulge moving around in his jacket. Chris, suspecting that he has his animal, opens the cage as Tyler runs up. He stops in front of it, finally beating the bulge out of his jacket until it pops out the bottom. Sure enough, it's the frog, which hops right into the cage with the beavers, deer, and chipmunk. Ezekiel asks his friend what happened, only for Tyler to babble, "Frog...smarter...than...thought...Lost...net...So...slimy..." before he faints. The camera then shows Geoff appeaing from behind a bush, seeing a duck nearby. He pulls out the duck bait, then slowly starts to make a trail with it. Meanwhile, Chester pokes his head out from behind a tree and sees a raccoon, nibbling on berries. He aims his tranquilizer gun and fires, hitting the little raccoon in the butt. He casually walks over and picks up the unconscious raccoon by the tail, saying, "That was easy." He then turns and notices the angry flock of raccoons, which eventually forms into the towering raccoon robot. He slowly aims his tranquilizer gun with a shaky hand, only for the robot to fire a single raccoon at him and knock it out of his hands. He then screams as the shadow looms over him. Eva is then seen, finally at the bear cave. She enters without a single pause, and pokes the bear hard in the stomach to wake it up, as it is sleeping heavily. When it awakens, it is very angry and roars in her face, only for her to hold up a fist and say, "If you want to keep all your fur, you'll come with me quietly! Got it?" To which the bear nods, scared helplessly by her. Back at the campgrounds, they hear Geoff screaming for them to open the cage. Ezekiel opens it, and Geoff tosses the duck bait into the cage for the duck to chase after. Ezekiel closes it and he and Geoff hi-five. Chris then declares that only Chester and Eva are left, and one of them will have to clean the Communal Washrooms. However, Geoff then points out a rustling in the bushes nearby. They all huddle in fear, up until they see that it is only Chester, scratched, beaten, brusied, and bloody, crawling out on all fours. Geoff and Ezekiel approach him and ask if he's alright. Just like Tyler, he can only stammer and say broken words, eventually getting out, "Giant...raccoon...robot." But he then holds up the raccoon he tranquilized. Geoff takes it for him and tosses it in the cage, while Ezekiel helps him to his feet. They then turn at the sound of a bear roaring, and more rustling in the bushes. They then see Eva emerge, dragging the bear by its hind legs, saying, "You're going in the cage!" However, the bear is throwing a tantrum and pounding the ground repeatedly. Even so, Eva is easily able to drag it towards the cage. At the last second, it spins around and grabs her hands in an attempt to free itself. Eva tries to push his face away with one hand, but one of her fingernails scrapes a tiny scratch just above its right eye. The bear immediately starts crying and runs off into the woods. Chris glares at Eva evilly and tells her that she just harmed her animal. Eva yells, "No way! Come on! It was just a scratch! Seriously! It was nothing! That bear was just a wimp!" Even so, Chris declares her officially eliminated, which makes her explode. In her fury, she destroys the cage, again, freeing all the animals. She then turns and kicks over the massive wooden table that Noah was seated at, ruining all of his food. She continues in her rampage, demanding that she stay right where she is, until a tranquilizer dart suddenly appears in her neck. She collapses instantly, out cold. Chris casually blows over the barrel of the gun in cowboy style, saying that that's another one for his mantle. The epilogue shows Eva's unconscious form being carried away in the Boat of Losers. Chris then approaches the still beaten-up Chester and tells him that he has some "unfinished business" to take care of, handing him a bucket and mop. Chester is shown, standing in front of the Communal Washrooms with the equipment in hand and everyone else behind him. He starts to turn around and ask if anyone will help him, but turns around completely and notices that everyone is gone. He turns back towards the Washrooms, muttering, "This is going to be a long night."

Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon
Chester, for the second time, rolls out of bed in terror when he hears a helicopter flying overhead. However, they all head outside and see that it is just Chris. He then gives a rundown of the eliminated campers, in order: Gwen, Owen, Duncan, Courtney, LeShawna, Izzy, Harold, Bridgette, Sadie, Beth, Lindsay, Heather, Bridgette (again), Trent, DJ, Heather (again), Cody, and Eva. Noah then yells up to him, asking if it was really necessary. Chris simply yells back down to trust him, and that what he just rattled off will serve useful in the day's challenge. He then announces the Tri-Armed Triathlon challenge, including the wimp key and chance for Invincibility for two. In the various Confessionals shown afterwards, Chester states that maybe his chances are better than he thought; if he's lasted this long since his last remaining alliance member was gone, then Lady Luck is obviously on his side. Noah states that, even without his alliance, he is still perfectly confident about his chances, and has a plan for a new alliance. Ezekiel, Geoff, and Tyler are all ecstatic about making the final six and all believe that they can win. Only Katie admits that she doesn't have what it takes to win; but she will try anyway, for Sadie. In the main lodge, Chris declares the three teams: Chester and Ezekiel; Geoff and Tyler; and Noah and Katie. They all seem fairly alright with their partners, except Noah, who knows that Katie is still angry at him from the last challenge. Chris then announces the eating challenge as round number one: One must eat with hands behind their backs, while the other feeds them. He gives the teams one minute to decide. The results are: Chester feeding Ezekiel, Tyler feeding Geoff, and Katie feeding Noah. The challenge begins. Noah tells Katie that he can handle any kind of food, to which she promptly starts feeding him over and over again, fast, hard, and consistent. Noah, through a mouth full of food, tells her that she could slow down, but she doesn't listen. On the other teams, Ezekiel also proves to be able to handle any kind of food Chester gives him, and Geoff is a fast and voracious eater, but doesn't do too well with the actual food Tyler feeds him. In the end, Noah and Katie win, as Noah is completely bloated, with food all over him, and his cheeks are as large as a chipmunk's. They win the first challenge, and Chris gives them a few minutes to clean up before round two. The three teams start paddling back out to Boney Island. While on the water, two of the teams are having interesting conversations. Ezekiel asks Chester if he thinks he has a strong chance in the game, to which Chester simply says, "Maybe." He then returns the question, to which Ezekiel is much more confident. Chester commends him, saying that at least he has friends. Ezekiel tries to cheer him up and says that he is Chester's friend, to which Chester simply murmurs, "Thanks." In the Confessional, he says that, whether or not Ezekiel is his friend, he still needs an alliance to survive any further. In Noah and Katie's canoe, Katie has turned the other cheek and is letting Noah do all the paddling. Noah sighs, then decides that he has to confront her. He asks if she's still upset over what happened last week, to which she simply said, "What do you think? You were a real jerk." Noah tries to defend himself, but realizes that she is right. He then asks what it's going to take to earn her forgiveness, and get her to work with him in the challenge; at least, not to the point where she hurts him in doing so. She looks at him and simply says, "You're so smart; you should know the magic words." Noah hangs his head and groans. In the Confessional, he admits that he's never apologized to anyone before in his life, outside of a sarcastic one. He then raises his head and mutters "Sorry" half-heartedly. Despite this, Katie forgives him and says, "That's better. Now, are you going to row, or what? I can tell you an awesome story..." to which she starts another of her usual dronings. Eventually, all three teams arrive at the beach, find the package, and the three sections of the tiki idol. After they all scream in horror, Chris arrives in the helicopter and gives them the basic rundown: After Sadie was eliminated due to stealing the idol, she simply threw it in the trash can behind the main lodge. Thus, they kept it specifically for this challenge and chopped it into three pieces. They must return their piece to the Cave of Treacherous Terror, and whoever does so first wins. Most of them are confident about it, until Chris adds the piggy-back part. Noah seems very upset by this, until Tyler tells him, "At least you only have to carry a girl. We all have to carry another dude. And that's not right." Chester, off to the side, tells Noah it's a good thing that Cody's gone, to which Noah says, "Bite me." Before anyone else can ask what Chester meant, Noah picks up Katie and runs off with their piece. Ultimately, the other two teams make their decisions: Geoff will carry Tyler, and Ezekiel will carry Chester. The teams race off, encountering monster beavers, bears, and other dangers, but ultimately, Chester and Ezekiel arrive first and toss their piece in. They hi-five, then return to their canoe. At the final challenge, Chris tallies up the scores: Chester and Ezekiel have one, Noah and Katie have one, and Geoff and Tyler have zero. For the third and final challenge, they must stack wooden carvings of the eliminated campers' heads in a totem pole of losers. He adds that this is why his listing of all the eliminated campers was important. They start. Geoff starts tearing up when he sees Bridgette's head, but Tyler tells him to toughen up and focus on the game. Geoff says that he is right, and they continue working. However, he starts tearing up again when he reaches Bridgette's second head, to which Tyler facepalms. Ezekiel and Chester can't remember if it was Sadie or Beth who was voted off eighth (when, in actuality, neither of them were), and Chester is cuddling both of Heather's wooden heads. However, the challenge is suddenly over when Noah and Katie win, stacking up all eighteen heads perfectly. Noah simply credits his strong memory, as he remembered the actual eliminations, not necessarily the list that Chris rattled off just that day. Thus, Noah and Katie win Invincibility. Later that night, prior to voting, a shadow approaches Chester as he is sitting alone on the porch of the guys' lodge. Chester looks up and says, "What do you want?" It then shows the Bonfire Ceremony, with Chris giving the basic rundown. He gives marshmallows to Noah and Katie, naturally. The next two then go to Ezekiel and Chester. In the bottom two, Tyler and Geoff, Tyler receives the last marshmallow. However, Geoff is cool with it and says that he had a fun time. He says that he'll miss everyone, and he'll throw a party once this is all over. They all say goodbye to him fondly, except Noah. The Confessionals are then shown: Tyler voted for Geoff, and Geoff voted for Tyler. Ezekiel admitted that he couldn't vote for Chester, since he feels sorry for him. Noah and Katie, who were at the top of his voting list, are both Invincibile, and he considered Tyler more of a friend than Geoff, since he had been friends with him longer and sided with him back when he and Geoff were rivals. Chester's is then shown. He admits that the last thing he wanted to do was take Noah's advice. However, he admits that only now is he starting to learn from Heather's example, and make the strategically superior move: Noah wanted Geoff gone, due to him being popular, friendly, easy to get along with, and dominating in most challenges. He figured that Noah was right, and that was the only way to go. Noah then admits that, while he was surprised to have gotten Chester's vote, Katie was easy to convince to vote for Geoff. Thus, sadly, everyone voted for Geoff except Geoff himself.

Haute Camp-ture
At the Playa des Loser resort, most of the eliminated campers have been highly enjoying themselves. The only exceptions being Eva, Heather, and Courtney, who all think they were eliminated unfairly and should still be in the game. Gwen is also extremely dark, and has been seriously anti-social since her elimination. She doesn't talk to, or spend time with, anyone and just wants to go home and put "this stupid game" behind her. Sadie has been all but catatonic since her elimination, and has hardly spoken to anyone since she was separated from Katie. She only speaks when Katie is mentioned, and when she does, she doesn't stop talking about how much she misses Katie. Duncan is flirting with most of the girls (which always gets him rejected, sometimes painfully). Owen is enjoying the all-you-can-eat bouffet and the in-pool bar, as are Cody, LeShawna, and Harold. Trent and DJ mainly relax on some lounges. Bridgette and Geoff have been hanging out more and getting to know each other. For this, Geoff says that he is actually glad that he was eliminated. Beth and Lindsay go to the spa. Izzy is mainly running around the resort, terrifying those swimming in the pool, hanging from high windows, and swinging from palm trees. Chris then asks most of the losers about their thoughts on the final five. Trent almost instantly starts going into a hateful rant on Chester for aligning with Heather and orchestrating Gwen's elimination. But he is even more angry over himself getting eliminated at his hands. At this, DJ, Geoff, and Bridgette all agree, saying that they got the full, behind-the-scenes story of what really happened the night Trent was eliminated. LeShawna is equally angry, since her elimination was caused by Chester as well. Geoff and Cody both state that they thought Chester was cool, but now know otherwise. Eva and Courtney call him weak, and Heather says that she deserves to be in his place. Lindsay and Beth, however, say that they think he is a nice guy and should go far. They then talk about Ezekiel. Naturally, all of the former Killer Bass, minus Duncan, Courtney, and Eva, say that he is alright. Bridgette says that, while he is a little clueless to the way of the world, he is a sweet guy at heart and deserves to win. Geoff says that, with a little more schooling in teen ways, he could become "one cool dude." Most of the others, being former Gophers and/or eliminated before the merge, say that they honestly don't know Ezekiel that well, but from a first-hand-glance, he looks like a potential winner. Heather admits that Ezekiel was tough competition, and that she personally thinks he is the strongest camper left, along with "that know-it-all Noah." At the mention of Noah, Cody and Trent quickly try to back him up, saying that, despite his sardonic attitude, he is very clever and knows how to play the game. Heather admits that this is true and that he was a worthy opponent, but she would never vote for him. Sadie finally speaks up, saying that she thinks Noah could be alright, because she thinks that Katie sees something in him. At this, Duncan says that the interaction between the two since the animal hunt challenge has "love-hate" written all over it, to which Beth, Sadie, and Lindsay all giggle. Eva says that he is as scrawny as a stick, but his intelligence easily makes up for it. Still, she thinks he wouldn't last a day under her kind of training. Courtney calls him a clever competitor, and says that she sees some of herself in him. To this, Duncan says, "Yeah, minus all the nagging," to which she throws a glass of fruit punch at him. They then move on to Katie. Almost immediately, Sadie hogs the spotlight with a never-ending speech on how much she misses Katie, thinks she is tough and smart, and is going all the way. Eventually, Chris decides to skip right to Tyler. Geoff and DJ say that he is cool, and definitely has team spirit and enthusiasm, but lacks the skills to put his money where his mouth is. Courtney calls him a delusional weakling, and that he doesn't deserve to be in the final five. Eva admits that she can't stand people who get so pumped up about something that they can't even do. Harold tries to defend him, but Heather simply agrees with them, saying that she is more shocked at Tyler making it to the final five than Chester. Most of the others admit that they didn't really even talk to him at all, due to him often being so quiet, and don't know why he's there. Bridgette admits that she can usually say good things about everyone, but says that with Tyler, enthusiasm isn't enough. Harold then actually brings up the record, and says that, of the five campers left, Tyler has the lowest performance. Up to this point, Noah had won a challenge for himself or his team five times, Katie had done so three times, Ezekiel had done so twice, Chester once, and Tyler once, but that was in Who Can You Trust, when his "winning" the challenge was an accident. With that, Chris reveals that they will get to vote. Almost instantly, Geoff, DJ, Trent, Noah, LeShawna, Gwen, and Cody all vote for Chester. However, Heather, Eva, Courtney, Duncan all vote for Tyler. Sadie votes for Katie just to bring her back and get them together again. Harold admits that he doesn't want to vote for Tyler, but Chris counts his mention of Tyler's name as a vote, thus making six for Chester, five for Tyler, and one for Katie. Heather grabs Lindsay and Beth and tells them both to say Tyler. Beth does so, racking up another vote for Tyler, but Lindsay questions why they should listen to her if they're not in the game anymore. Heather says that she'll pay for her next spa, to which Lindsay happily agrees and votes Tyler. Thus, it's seven votes for Tyler, six for Chester, and one for Katie. Heather then pulls Owen aside and says she'll take away all the food from the bouffet unless he votes Tyler. Owen, who still fears Heather, quickly agrees. Thus, this leaves Bridgette as the sole loser who will decide the result: Either it will be a tie of eight to eight between Tyler and Chester, or Tyler will be sent home with a nine majority. She says that she ultimately likes Tyler more...but since she said his name first, Chris counts this as a vote, much to the outrage of half of the losers and the satisfaction of the other half. Sadie starts wailing about how she'll be separated from Katie even longer. The camera then shows Tyler being "escorted" to the Boat of Losers, still in shock that a majority of the losers would vote for him. As he rides off, Chris wipes his brow and says that it was "a close one," and that losing Chester (and, subsequently, the conflict between him and Noah) would've caused the ratings to drop. He then says that he is an awesome host and signs off the show.

Camp Castaways
That night, during all the raining, Ezekiel and Noah are enjoying themselves with their own individual activities: Ezekiel is whittling a carving of is toque out of a chunk of wood, and Noah is reading a novel. Chester has secluded himself in the other side of the lodge, away from Noah. At one point, however, Chester decides to have a little verbal fun, and he leans out the door to yell to Noah, "Hey, bookworm! Why don't you go check on your girlfriend in the cabin across the way?" Noah leans back out and replies, "She's not my girlfriend," before slamming the door on Chester's poor attempt at a verbal fight. Back in their side of the cabin, Ezekiel asks why they haven't heard from Katie for a while, as she is usually either very talkative or would be complaining about the rain or being scared of the storm. Noah simply shrugs, saying, "Eh, maybe she finally decided to zip it for once." However, Katie is not even in the lodge; she is in the Confessional Outhouse. She admits that she is afraid of the storm, and being in the "big, dark, scary, old, empty cabin." She even admits that she kind of misses Eva, as she does not enjoy being the only female left in camp. She would even take Heather to a certain extent. But she admits that the Confessional is better because it's a smaller space, and she can at least vent to someone, or rather, something, while in there. She then starts ranting on abou another of her stories, this one about, since she was talking about small spaces, the time she and Sadie once got stuck in an air vent for six hours... Later that morning, the four campers awake to the shocking realization that they have floated away. Chester starts freaking out, but Noah and Ezekiel know to take the initiative. Both guys start arguing over who should be leader. Chester tries to interject, but they both tell him to shut up. Noah says that, as long as they're at sea, they'll need a decent captain. At this, Chester points out that they're no longer at sea when their lodge drifts ashore. They realize this and feel embarassed at their arguing, to which they quickly and awkwardly agree to make up so that they can stick together. However, Noah then notices Katie is gone and asks where she is. Chester says, "Worried about your girlfriend, eh?" to which Noah simply says that she is not his girlfriend. Meanwhile, Katie floats ashore in the Confessional outhouse, which she fell asleep inside. When she opens the door and steps out, she instantly falls into the water still between the outhouse and the land, while her face lands in the sand. She looks around at the deserted island she's on, and realizes what has happened. She then gets down on her knees and screams a long, desperate "NO!" to the sky. The boys, on the other side of the island, hear the scream and know that it must be Katie. Noah suggests that they split up and go search for her, but Ezekiel insists that they stick together. Chester says that they must at least try to search for some food, water, or shelter. Noah points out that they already have shelter: The lodge they drifted ashore in. But Ezekiel ultimately agrees with Chester's idea of searching for food, saying that food for themselves is more important, and smarter, than risking getting lost looking for Katie. He adds that if Katie has any brains, she'll know to stay put, since she most likely drifted ashore with some sort of shelter as well, such as the lodge. Finally, the dysfunctional trio come up with a plan: One of them will stay with the relative safety of the lodge, while the other two will go off in search of food. Almost instantly, Chester volunteers for "Cabin duty," while Noah and Ezekiel go out as the food-hunting team. Ezekiel takes his trusty bow and arrow and tells Noah to grab his own weapon for self-defense. Noah tries to talk his way out of it, saying that he can simply run from danger. But at Ezekiel's further pressing, Noah quickly takes one of the loose wooden floorboards from the lodge, even though Chester says that it wouldn't stand up against a bunny. With a glare back at Chester, Noah turns and leaves with Ezekiel. However, shortly after they enter the woods, Ezekiel hears a rustling ahead of them. He crouches, aims his bow, and fires. They hear a loud clinking sound, and race ahead. They see the massive T-Rex skeleton on the beach, which Ezekiel's arrow bounced off of. Ezekiel and Noah scream and run in opposite directions, thus separating. Chester hears the screams, and he himself screams and runs into the lodge for safety. Katie also hears the screams and cowers inside the Confessional. As Ezekiel is running, he runs straight into the ladder at the base of the hidden tree house. He climbs up and opens the door, only to leap backwards in fright when the skeleton drops in front of him. He lands on his back, not injuring him, but crushes his bow and bow-holder. When he discovers this, he screams, "NO!" long and dramatically to the sky. In the Confessional, a sobbing Ezekiel says that his grandfather gave him that bow and bow-holder for his third birthday, and that it was his prized possession. Noah, who ran along the beach, runs into the door of the Confessional and falls to the ground in a daze. Katie, hearing something suddenly slam against the door outside, grabs a plunger, leaps out, and starts mercilessly beating whatever just "attacker" her. However, she stops after 17 hits, and sees that it is only Noah. She apologizes, embarassed, while Noah only groans. She then offers to give him some toilet paper as bandages, to which he reluctantly accepts. Meanwhile, Ezekiel, back at the tree house, has climbed back up the ladder and discovers that the skeleton is fake, since he finds several small, metal rivets holding the bones together. He then throws it aside and sets up shop in the relatively comfortable tree house. Chester is still cowering in fear in the lodge, sucking his thumb. Katie finishes bandaging up Noah, to which he mumbles a thanks. Katie then suddenly throws herself on him in a bear hug, whimpering that she's scared. Noah is, at first, shocked and reluctant, but looks down at her with a look of [somewhat] sympathy and even puts an arm around her with a reassurance that they'll be OK. Ezekiel is worried about how he'll defend himself without a weapon, and sits down on the bed. He then jumps up in pain with a yelp, and finds out that his whittling knife was in his back pocket the whole time. The blade in hand, he grins wickedly and starts to leave, only for the massive snake to block his exit. He screams again and runs back into the treehouse. Chester hears Ezekiel's scream; the second one he had heard that day, and, knowing that it has to be Ezekiel, finally decides that he has to leave. He slowly exits the lodge and starts heading towards the direction of the scream. Chester is stumbling around in the woods aimlessly until he trips on the fake skeleton. He screams and tries to run, only to trip again, this time over the snake. He screams again and backs up against the ladder as the snake approaches. At the last second, Ezekiel, who is above him, reaches down, grabs him by the collar of his shirt, and yanks him up as the snake snaps at where he had been standing moments earlier. Chester quickly thanks him for saving his life. Meanwhile, Noah has been out of the Confessional for a while, searching for food. He stumbles upon the T-Rex skeleton again, but from a different angle: The first thing he sees is molding and peeling paper mache spread on the ground around him, leading up to the skeleton. He gasps, but then puts two and two together and realizes that it is fake. He slowly walks around to the other side and finds Ezekiel's arrow. He picks it up and decides to use it as his weapon. He walks along the beach until he notices a bundle of bananas hanging from a tree above him. He steps back to avoid being hit by them, then throws the arrow up at them. He manages to hit it just right, and the bananas fall straight down, as does the arrow. He takes both back to the Confessional, which excites Katie now that they have food. She hugs him again, to which he starts talking about how it was nothing, just standing at the right distance, under the correct height, and with an accurate angle of trajectory for the arrow...but he is suddenly interrupted when Katie kisses him. He is completely stunned, and doesn't even have a smart remark or disgusted reaction to show. In a separate, private Confessional, he does nothing more than slowly touch his lips and comment, "Tastes like banana." Katie, in her own Confessional, says that she doesn't really know what came over her; she just thinks that Noah is a great guy, there to comfort her, and was able to bring back all of that food. She then adds, with a giggle, that the look on his face afterwards was priceless. Ezekiel and Chester are also in the treehouse, and debating as to whether or not it's just a challenge or the real deal. Ezekiel believes it could be real, and is already preparing for a long-term stay. Chester, bringing out "The Heather in him" (as described by one of his Confessionals), says that it must be a challenge, and the goal is to survive the best, with the most provisions, most shelter, and so on. Ezekiel says that, even if that is the case, then they're already well-prepared.
