Not Quite Famous

'''The two teams participate in a talent show and the rivalry between two campers grows rapidly after a shocking event. After two strong acts from one team and two disasters from the other, all seems lost for them until out of the blue one camper unexpectedly pulls out some amazing talent, and gives his team the win. To save herself from inevitably being voted off, a manipulative camper tricks some of her other teammates into voting off one of the hottest campers.'''

Plot
The episode opens with Lindsay complaining to Gwen that she has ran out of fake skin tanner in the Gopher girls' cabin. Gwen, who had just woken up, expresses great disinterest in the matter. However, Lindsay is completely oblivious to her sarcasm. Chris' voice blares out of the speakers asking if the campers had gotten enough sleep and asks that they show what they are made of during the next challenge.

The scene then goes to the two teams sitting on wooden bleachers in front of the stage. While they wait, Lindsay asks if they're going to be watching a musical, stating that she loves musicals. Trent sees Gwen and tells her he had saved her a seat. Heather gives them dirty look because of the interaction and Lindsay blows a kiss to Tyler. He catches it and winks at her. She waves at him and then looks at Heather, who has been glaring at her. As Heather turns her head sharply in the other direction, Lindsay gets hit by Heather's ponytail and gets a strand of hair in her mouth.

Chris eventually comes out and tells the campers that for the day's challenge, they will be doing a camp classic: A talent show. Both teams have eight hours to pick their three most talented teammates. The three will represent them in the talent show. Over at the Screaming Gophers' meeting place, Heather declares herself team captain, but Gwen is a little apprehensive. Gwen goes on to question Heather's authority, and an argument escalates. Their fight is interrupted when Trent comes up giving Gwen an extra muffin. Seizing the opportunity to force Gwen to back down, Heather asks Trent if he's okay with her leading the team for the talent show. He agrees, not really caring either way. Heather then officially declares herself, Lindsay, and Beth to be the judges for her team's auditions.

Over at the Killer Bass meeting place, the first ones to audition are Katie and Sadie. Courtney, who seems to have become the judge for the Bass, along with all the other team members, doesn't like their dance performance and turn Katie and Sadie down. For his audition with the Gophers, Owen drinks a big liter of soda, and then burps the entire alphabet. All the guys cheer and commend Owen for his accomplishment; however, Heather refuses to let him use that as a talent in the contest, calling his act "disgusting." Trent comes to his defense by asking her if she knows how hard it is to burp the entire alphabet in just one go. Owen then states that he could also play Beethoven's fifth via farting, but the girls immediately turn it down. During the audition, Gwen leaves her team to be by herself.

Back with the Killer Bass, Tyler is seen yo-yoing to impress his team in order to compete in the talent show. He starts off well, but then gets himself tangled in the yo-yo string, disappointing his team. For the Gophers, Heather performs ballet and is quickly accepted to compete by Lindsay and Beth. Heather tells everyone to take five and then quickly pulls Lindsay aside, asking her if she can keep a secret. Lindsay then tells her a story about her older sister Paula getting diarrhea during a date, and how she had to bring her toilet paper since the bathroom was out, and how she never told a soul. She then remembers that she's on national television, looks at the screen, and apologizes to her sister. Heather shoves a walkie-talkie into her hand and tells her to follow Gwen and report back.

Later, as Lindsay is following Gwen she becomes very bored. She then sees Tyler, who is still tied up in his yo-yo string, through her binoculars and is happy she found something "interesting". Back over at The Killer Bass, DJ does a ribbon dance for his audition. His performance is enough for him to become the team's first representative. Bridgette goes up next, saying she can stand on her hands for twenty minutes. She demonstrates, but Courtney rejects her quickly, saying the talent is more suited for monkeys. Harold walks up next, but is shot down by Courtney before he can do anything, but take in a breath.

The scene then switches to Lindsay and Tyler making out in the bathroom while Heather yells through the walkie-talkie asking if Lindsay had found anything. Grabbing the walkie-talkie, Lindsay hurriedly replies "On my way back, under", and the scene goes back to the Bass. Geoff is seen doing tricks on a skateboard, and is chosen to compete. The Bass have their three representatives picked off-screen. Courtney was chosen to be the second one after performing a solo with her violin. However, as she is practicing, Bridgette bets Harold, Geoff and a few other guys on her team that she really can stand on her hands for twenty minutes. Everyone in the group throws in a little cash and other objects as part of the bet. Bridgette starts to stand on her hands, and does so successfully for a short while. She then accidentally gets her leg tangled up on a rope that was holding up a light in the amphitheater, which comes crashing down directly over Courtney's head and smashes her violin in two. Courtney starts to cry about her violin and is forced to wear a bandage around her head. As a result of this chaos, Bridgette now has to compete in the show in place of Courtney and is worried she could be the next one going home.

Back with the Gophers, Izzy is doing The Dance of the Rattlesnake, which captures the attention of Owen and Trent. Next up is Beth, whose talent is twirling fire batons. She does great until she tosses one of her two batons in the air. She does not catch it and everybody hastily ducks for cover. One baton burns a hole in the ground, while the other sets a bush on fire. Then, in a dramatic sequence, Justin comes out with a fire extinguisher and puts the fire in the bush out. Heather, awestruck with the rest of the girls over Justin's beauty, declares that the three representatives will be herself, Justin, and Trent. Gwen is then shown writing in her journal alone, trying to get some time to herself. Cody then comes over to chat with her. Gwen ignores him while he tries to make small talk. He then tries to sniff her hair, but is called a weirdo for it. When Gwen goes back to the cabins, she changes to go swimming, so Trent decides to come along, much to Gwen's pleasure.

Later, Gwen goes out to the docks with Trent. Gwen points out that almost everyone is driving her crazy, Trent being one of the exceptions. Cody and Owen then jump in the water, getting Gwen all wet, causing her to storm of angrily, which in turn makes Trent noticeably angry at Owen and Cody for ruining their moment. Back at the cabin, Heather seizes the opportunity to sneak into Gwen's drawer and steal her diary. Before the show, Bridgette is eating a bag of chips while talking with Courtney. Heather then comes up and discretely accuses her of sabotaging her teammate so that she could get her time in the spotlight. Bridgette retorts, saying that the Gophers may work that way, but the Bass are a team and help each other. This leads Heather to insult her over eating too many chips. Bridgette responds by throwing the bag of chips in her face. Soon after, the talent show starts. Each camper chosen to represent their team with their talent will perform, and Chef Hatchet will then score the performance on the "Chef-O-Meter" (a scale of zero to nine). Justin goes first for the Gophers. He does his flash dance, ending with water splashing onto him. He scores six out of a possible nine points from Chef Hatchet. Next up is DJ with his ribbon dance. His legs somehow get tangled in the ribbon and he gets only two points for the flop. Up next, Trent sings a song about Gwen and gets the highest score yet - eight out of nine points. Bridgette goes up next with her hand-standing talent. Almost as soon as she starts off, she throws up because of all the chips she ate before show time. She ends up puking all over the stage and onto Katie and Sadie, prompting them to throw up on each other. She then slips on her puke and falls into Tyler's lap. Lindsay is outraged and yells at her to puke on her own boyfriend, but is quickly silenced by Heather. Chris then orders an unscheduled commercial break to clean up the mess.

After the break, it is discovered that Bridgette earned a two out of nine for her "performance". Next up is Heather, who announces that she has decided to read pages from Gwen's diary about Trent to the entire viewing world, instead of doing a ballet number. Gwen, embarrassed to no end, runs off while Bridgette and Courtney comment about how uncalled-for the act was. Geoff is about to go on when he accidentally breaks his skateboard in two. With Katie and Sadie covered in vomit and Tyler and Duncan not having any outstanding talent, Bridgette and Courtney reluctantly pick Harold to go as a replacement. He acts as a human beat-box, and does incredibly, shocking everyone. He wins the Bass the competition, receiving a perfect score of nine from Chef. In the confessional, Heather reveals that to save herself from being voted off inevitably, she is getting four other campers to vote off Justin with her. She decides on Lindsay and Beth, since they are part of her alliance, Izzy, because she is crazy, and Owen, whom she bribed with a piece of cake.

At the campfire ceremony, Heather and Justin are the last two campers to not receive a marshmallow. To Chris's surprise, due to Heather's meddling, Justin is sent home. Even Chris is upset and shocked about the elimination for the first time, even saying that it seemed wrong. Gwen and some of the other campers are annoyed that Heather is safe. Afterwards, Gwen exacts revenge on Heather by dumping Harold's red ant farm in her bed, causing her to run out of the cabin that night, covered in ants. As Heather's screams echo through the camp, Gwen smiles and snuggles into her pillow happily, thus ending the episode.
