User:Fedora Kid

Hello, everyone! This is Fedora Kid. That's right; the semi-popular author from FanFiction.Net now has his own account on TDW! I'm so excited to have my very own account here, and I am absolutely loving doing some Wiki work!

About me:
I'm a guy, currently 15 years old. As you might be able to tell, I'm obsessed with the Total Drama series. I loved TDI, even though I wasn't too interested in it until Hook, Line, and Screamer then I realized how awesome the show is! And I watched all of TDA. AWESOME! I'm currently anticipating the next season, Total Drama World Tour. It's gonna be a hit...that is, if Ezekiel is on it and lasts for a long time! Which he had better...

Probably my biggest accomplishments on the Wiki so far are:

An image that I nominated, "Sad Ezekiel", ended up becoming the Featured Image from February 21 to February 28 of 2010.

The week that the epic Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special premiered in the US, April 4 to April 11 of 2010, a quote that I nominated became featured! It's called Izzy Insults Chef, and it goes like this: If I can handle hand-to-paw combat with a polar bear, then I can handle a bald, emotionally-withdrawn cook in a Halloween costume! - Izzy (Alien Resurr-eggtion)

Character Rankings (from least to greatest):


 * 22nd: Courtney - She's a spoiled, whiny, selfish, poor-sported, loud, obnoxious, sue-happy, cheating, egotistical, overreacting brat! She did NOT deserve to come back to TDA, let alone by cheating her way into the season! It's her fault that Owen got eliminated from the show, BOTH times! She does not deserve to be in TDWT, either! However, if she does actually stop being such an annoying, whining, cheating brat, and is actually nice again like she was in the very first episode, then I might start to like her again.


 * 21st: Justin - He should've remained silent. Not only did he become an antagonist in TDA, but he was a bad one! And not Heather-bad, but bad-bad, as in he doesn't know how to be an antagonist! He rarely did anything truly evil in TDA (besides causing Gwen and Trent's break-up, and getting Izzy voted off in "Full Metal Drama"). All he did was manipulate Lindsay and Beth and take off his shirt all the time.


 * 20th: LeShawna - I really don't see why she has so many fans. She's sassy, and, frankly, I'm a little sick of her always referring to everyone else as "White boy/girl;" it's somewhat racist.


 * 19th: Gwen - Originally, she was almost entirely on the opposite end of this list, and ranked as my third favorite female character (after Heather and Lindsay), but after seeing how evil and cruel she was to Trent in TDA, her popularity went south for the winter...not to mention the spring, summer, fall, and every other season of the year.


 * 18th/17th: Katie and Sadie - They can be somewhat funny when they're together, but when they're separated, they become pathetic characters. Sadie after "The Sucky Outdoors" is living proof of that. After her BFF's eliminiation, she had no lines - ABSOLUTELY no lines at all - in "Up The Creek," "Paintball Deer Hunter," and "If You Can't Take The Heat..." Besides, when they're together, the sounds they make somewhat resemble communicating dolphins. However, I do express my sympathies to all fans of these two girls (or, in rarer cases, just one of the girls); I mean, these two were both eliminated early in TDI, weren't in TDA, and right now, there's absolutely no sign of them AT ALL in TDWT? I know how bad THAT must feel. So all Katie/Sadie fans, Katie fans, or Sadie fans, just hang in there, because there is always season four, right?


 * 16th: Beth - She's just plain weird, and personally, I just don't think she belongs in TDA. Despite being the runner-up, she hasn't really had any major character development in the whole season (outside of the whole Brady thing).


 * 15th: DJ- He's seriously a boring character. He often has no lines, and it's slightly pathetic how he's the tallest, and should be one of the toughest campers of them all, and yet he's afraid of Heather shaving her legs (...but then again, can you really blame him?) But again, not too interesting overall.


 * 14th: Duncan - I don't really hate him, I just think he's seriously overrated. He has way too many fans (particularly those of the whole Duncan/Courtney pairing), and he's made it too far in both seasons: final four in TDI and WINNER in TDA? Talk about overstaying your welcome! But I do favor him over Beth.


 * 13th: Trent - He's OK. I never really paid attention to him up until the Gwen/Trent break-up issue. I'm totally on Team Trent, but that's the only reason he doesn't rank any lower on this list.


 * 12th: Eva - I do admit that she should have more screen-time in the season, but her temper problem is basically asking to be kicked off early. And, like with the Katie and Sadie fans, I do feel sorry for Eva fans, too; so far, she hasn't fared any better in the show than Katie and Sadie.


 * 11th: Tyler - He could become more developed over the course of TDWT, but they're gonna have to dig deep; he's pretty dull (although he has some hilarious facial expressions!). And I really like the Tyler/Lindsay relationship mainly because they seem like the best match, as oppose to all those mismatches, such as Duncan/Courtney and Harold/LeShawna.


 * 10th: Noah - Same as Tyler. I know what you're thinking: "If he's the same as Tyler, then why does he have a higher rank than Tyler?" Well, it's because I can relate to Noah better; being a geek/bookworm who doesn't really favor sports (as oppose to Tyler, who is all about sports).


 * 9th: Izzy - She can be pretty funnny. And I am definitely a fan of the Owen/Izzy relationship!


 * 8th: Bridgette - I think she could make a great character now that she's in TDWT without Geoff. Without their constant making-out, she could have more time for the show to actually focus on her personality and background rather than her lips.


 * 7th: Geoff - He was a really funny and great character up until he and Bridgette hooked up. Then his character became ridiculous. Although making him a semi-antagonist with TDA Aftermath is a nice touch. I'm a little upset that he's not in TDWT, but I guess it was the only way to separate him and Bridgette.


 * 6th: Harold - Hilarious character from the start! It's awesome that he made it to the final five in TDA! And he probably hits on more girls than anyone else! Personally, I think that he and Heather should hook up.


 * 5th: Lindsay - Her dimwittness makes for many a great joke.


 * 4th: Owen - He was originally my top favorite character in the show, up until I eventually became an Ezekiel fan! I still root for him, and believe that he should've won TDA (he deserved the money since Chef ripped up his $100,000 check). His elimination at the hands of Courtney was totally unfair, and I was so excited when he came back! I was glad that he at least lasted longer than Courtney (even if it was for about a minute), and Chris should just give him the $50,000 he promised him! Owen needs that money, man!


 * 3rd: Heather - The fact that everyone else hates her makes me want to like her! I think she makes a great antagonist! What she has that Justin and Courtney lack is that she knows how to work the game. She schemes and plans things out, she at least plays fair and square, and at least she admits to being evil! Justin just likes to have girls do his dirty work, and Courtney cheats her way into everything.


 * 2nd: Cody - I can relate to him so much because I'm a geek, somewhat like him. He's hilarious, and Heather should've gone instead of him. He is the one character I wanted to qualify for TDA the most (along with Ezekiel). I'll bet you that the only reason he didn't is because Peter Oldring wasn't working on the show at that time. And he is definitely going to make it far in TDWT!

Couple Rankings:
 * 1st: Ezekiel - He has the most potential out of any character on the show! He's the only Canadian contestant for one. He can speak over eight different languages (and TDM is the perfect chance for him to capitalize on that). He could easily make for a fan-favorite in TDM! And he had BETTER not be voted off early AGAIN in TDT; he deserves that screen-time!


 * 6th: Duncan/Courtney - Cliche. Overrated. Pointless. This is the reason that "Basic Straining" is one of my least favorite episodes of TDI. And TDA sure didn't help, either. At that point, all that Courtney did was kick Duncan where it counts. That's the only reason that I feel sympathy for Duncan in this whole thing. That, and when he finally stood up for himself in "Top Dog." Seeing him learn how to take care of himself and vote her off was one of the best moments in Total Drama history! I was SO glad when that couple broke up, but I was enraged when they got back together. It just shows how pathetic Duncan really is, if one little kiss (not to mention through a disgusting, slimy, ink-covered face) was enough to convince him to get back together with a psycho, AND split a million bucks with her!
 * 5th: Trent/Gwen - It was OK at first; a nice love story, with them being able to make ammends and forgive each other for past mistakes. It was a great source of drama, heartbreak, and forgiveness. But even so, it has a history of instances where Trent is blamed for things that go wrong, when they aren't even his fault! For example, when Heather kissed him in "Search and Do Not Destroy," HE gets voted off! And now Gwen thinks that, just because he has a lucky number, he's automatically "weird." Poor guy.
 * 4th: Harold/LeShawna - A serious mismatch. It barely had two episodes when it was actually a couple, and then, after that, it became a completely one-sided relationship.
 * 3rd: Geoff/Bridgette - It was OK at first, but when they got to the point where they became absolutely obsessed with each other, and barely came up for air while they were kissing, it became ridiculous.
 * 2nd: Owen/Izzy - Hilarious couple! I swear, I never saw their epic hook-up (and subsequent temporary break-up) in "Hook, Line, and Screamer." It was awesome! I also like the whole idea of it always being on/off, on/off, on/off, over and over again! Sometimes, you have to wonder if they're actually a couple! And I also think that's it tragic how, just as they were becoming an official couple once again, and probably for good, Justin gets Izzy voted off again in "Full Metal Drama." Yep; just another reason for me to hate Mr. Male Model even more. I can't wait to see how their relationship advances in TDM!
 * 1st: Tyler/Lindsay - You've got to love the only couple whose members were separated by seasons. But this did make for good humor with Lindsay continuously forgetting that he's not even there! And actually, I think that the very fact that they're not competing in the season is what saved their relationship. I mean, almost every other couple has broken up because of this season (except for Owen and Izzy). I can't wait to see them both return in TDWT!

My FanFiction
For those of you who haven't read my FanFiction stories yet, and might want to, here's a quick rundown of my twenty-two contestants and teams. Note: There are several differences between the real show and my stories. First off, rather than all contestants being sixteen, they are all instead many various ages, but anything between the range of 13 to 18 years olf (technically the official years of teenagers); also, in my stories, the readers vote who leaves every time, not the contestants themselves.

Teams (first season): Flaming Bears and Psycho Squirrels

Teams (second season): Flaming Directors and Psycho Producers (not telling whose on these teams and who isn't; don't want to spoil it with saying who makes it to season two)

Daniel: The Jock (no, not a Tyler kind of jock; a real jock); 17; six-foot two, perfectly tan, very muscular, brown hair in a buzz cut, piercing brown eyes; very athletic and physically fit. Almost always wears baggy basketball shorts, fine sneakers, sleeveless muscle shirts, and a black headband. Flaming Bears. Partially based off of Tyler (in jockness) and Justin (in manipulativeness of the girls)

Isaiah: The Dweeb; 17; curly dark hair; brown eyes; perfectly round, Harry Potter-like glasses; Very much based off of Harold in personality, voice, and appearance, except he is darker-skinned (like Noah); very messy and fails at wearing proper clothing (wears sweatervests and khaki shorts, but does so very sloppily); weak and gangly; very strange in what he says sometimes, as he often states random and useless (but interesting) facts; Flaming Bears. Based off Harold and the real Napoleon Dynamite.

James: The Jolly, Lovable Fat Guy (yes, based off Owen); 16; grossly over-weight (said to be around 315 lbs.); probably of African American descent, with curly black hair; fairly weak, but with great spirit; friendly and easy to get along with; fairly clumsy and dim-witted, but with a kind heart. Psycho Squirrels.

Jennifer: The Gymnast; 15; is in gymnastics and cheerleading (apparently co-captain of her team), thus making her very athletic and flexible; fairly-well built; long, brown hair often in a ponytail; green eyes; Caucasian, with a slight an; can be motivational, but aggressive at times. Flaming Bears. Partially based off of Eva for physical abilities, but also LeShawna in aggressiveness, but popularity with the others.

Jeremy: The Cool, Laid-back Nice Guy; 14; slightly resembles Trent in skin color, build, and hairdo (his hair is also black, like Trent's); fairly strong and capable of pulling his own weight in teamwork challenges; green eyes; friendly and ready to play the game; partially based off of Trent an DJ. Psycho Squirrels.

Jessica: The Clumsy Girl; 15; blonde hair with streak of red; blue eyes; Caucasian; as her title states, she is extremely uncoordinated and fails at practically every easy task and can hardly stand up straight for too long; despite this, she has an extremely enthusiastic attitude, and believes she can do anything perfectly fine (like Tyler); this sets up for her temper problem when denied the ability to participate. Psycho Squirrels.

John: The Goth Boy; 16; has long, slick black hair that covers his eyes (thus leaving his eye color unknown); very pale, white, almost ghost-like skin; wears all black (black shirt, black pants, black shoes, black socks, and even black underwear); very dull, rarely speaks (like Justin); a background character, who rarely participates; however, when he simply has no choice but to participate, he reveals that he is extremely physically fit, and nearly as strong as Daniel, and agile as Jennifer; based off of Ezekiel as the only contestant who is Canadian (and speaks with the Canadian accent). Psycho Squirrels.

Josh: The Karate Kid; 15; Asian, with light black, almost gray hair in a slight bowl haircut; gray eyes; is said to be a fourth-degree Black Belt in Karate (hence his title); is very strong and agile; has a can-do attitude and is thus a team player and very physical; has a very forward attitude, slightly aggressive, but with good reason. Psycho Squirrels.

Lauren: The Prom Queen; 16; Caucasian, very tan (but tan lines can be seen with her various outfits); baby blue eyes; very skinny; ridiculously bright blone hair; wears the most gaudy outfits, from her earrings right down to her shoes; claims to be very rich; always has toenail and fingernail polish on, but very sloppily applied; whiny and bratty, complains about everything, and is very weak in the challenges, thus refusing to participate; doesn't care about the game, but just wants the money; partially based off Lindsay. Flaming Bears.

Luke: The Brainiac; 17; fairly pale skinned and skinny; brunette, with slightly curly hair; pale blue eyes and a slightly dull expression; wears blue sweats an a matching blue long-sleeved shirt; is fairly physically fit, but not much of a team player; can be slightly arrogant, but likable overall; as his title states, he is extremely intelligent as well as very clever. Flaming Bears.

Madison: The FemiNazi; 15; blonde hair; Asian (somewhat like Heather); green eyes; is fairly fit, and performs decently enough in challenges; a background character until much later in the story (won't say how much later), when she reveals that she is very sexist towards man, believing them to be inferior to women in every way imaginable; this earns her the hatred of many of her teammates, both male and female; based off of Ezekiel for sexist views. Psycho Squirrels.

Mark: The Optimist; 16; dirty blonde hair; brown eyes; has a very friendly, laid-back, and (obviously) optimistic attitude towards everything; is very cool and likable, and, in addition to optimism, also has a serious party-guy attitude; is also physically capable and a great team player; partially based off of Geoff. Psycho Squirrels.

Mary: The Perfectionist; 14; long brown hair; brown eyes; a sharp, stern face that, for the most part, is expressionless; is the perfectionist (as her title states) and feels that everything must be done right, and done perfectly; she is very clever and intelligent, and also capable in the physical challenges; her slight brashness that comes with desiring perfection makes her somewhat unlikable, but still a great asset to the team overall; based off of Courtney. Psycho Squirrels.

Matthew: The Nice Guy; 13; short dirty blonde hair; Caucasian; thick, black sunglasses that he never takes off and are purely reflective, thus covering up his eyes and (like John) leaving their color a mystery); friendly smile and pleasant demeanor; fairly short and lean, but capable enough of physical challenges; very smart, but not arrogant about it like Luke; he is very friendly and outgoing, thus earning him a lot of popularity, despite being the youngest; based off of Cody. Flaming Bears.

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-six.

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, and catch a ball thrown by Katie and later DJ. 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 fairly physically fit, 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. But even so, she was in the bottom two, along with Duncan. But Eva 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 nervou 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 Lindsay wanted to vote for Chester for telling the story in the first place. 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.
