User blog:Geoff&Courtneyfan/Total Drama World Domination Ep 23: Bright Side of the Diego

We open up in the cargo hold, where Chris and an intern are going over a last second checklist.

Chris: We got 20 tons of ink?

Intern: Yes.

Chris: What about the 25 flame throwers?

Intern: Yep.

Chris: And the generator?

Suddenly, a loud THUD can be heard.

Other intern: *From offscreen* I'm okay.

Intern: *Sighs, rubs forhead* That would be a yes. Now, why don't you do the intro while I try to avoid another lawsuit.

Chris: Alrighty brah. *Turns to camera* Last time on Total Drama World Domintaion, four teens  in Washington DC. What could possibly go wrong? In a word, everything. Our remaining contestants had to capture one of four vic...I mean people who I got to play terrorists, and get them to give up the location of the next part of the challenge, which was of course in the White House to disarm a stink bomb. Desparate times called for desparate measures, and someone made a little deal with someone, which paid off in the end when Diego shockingly won immunity and then even more shockingly voted for Elyse, who also shockingly took it well. What surprises have I cooked up for our final three?

Intern: It's giant robots.

Chris: *Whispering* SHUT IT! *To audience* Find out on this edition of TOTAL...DRAMA...WORLD DOMINATION!

Intern: Sorry, I couldn't help myself. It's like what, the fourth time you've used them this season?

Chris: Alright that's it, you're fired.


 * Theme song plays*

Twas the night before the final three, when all the contestants were under duress as they lie asleep. Not a contestant wasn't stirring, not even a Tristan. Away in his dream, Diego is falling into a dark void of nothingness.

Diego: You know after a while, this gets...OOF!

He faceplants on solid ground. He gets up, only to see Valentina sitting on a chair drinking tea. There is a table and then another chair in front of her.

Valentina: Sit down.

Diego: But I thought...

Valentina: I said SIT DOWN. NOW!

Diego: Alright.

He does as she says. Valentina lays her tea down on the table.

Valentina: Now, we need to talk.

Diego: I think I know where this is going, but okay.

Valentina: Now, what were you thinking?

Diego: *Sigh* Well I just...You see...

Valentina: It's alright if you're still sad about what happened, but at some point, you have to move on.

Diego: *Defensively folds arms* I have moved on!

Valentina: Oh really, then what's all this about not trusting anyone? And what's with the way you've treated these these girls?

Diego: Listen, in the beginning, I messed up, okay. But I've changed!

Valentina: Oh, really?

The scene with Diego and Kaele in first class plays in the background.

Diego: But...

Valentina: No buts mister! Using me to gain sympathy from someone else is despicable and you know it!

Diego: I...have no good response for that.

Valentina: Good, now you're admitting it.

Diego: Well I just...It's just that after you...I just got really mad. My own family treats me like I don't exist, and it seems that everyone is against me.

Valentina: I know you feel this way, but you don't have to let your anger and depression drive you. You capable of doing better than that. I know it and so do you!

Diego: *Sigh* You're right. But I can't undo the actions I've already done. When I wake up from this dream, I'm not going to get any sympathy from anybody.

Valentina: That may be true, but you could at least try to start acting like the better person I know you can be.

Diego: *Cracks a smile* Yah, I guess that's still doable. But...

Valentina: *As she starts to fade* You can't undo the past, but you can make sure you have a better future by being a better person in the present.

Diego starts to fall again. Meanwhile, Viviana is in a forest, sitting on a rock, meditating.

Viviana: Ooooooooooooooommmm...

Suddenly, astroids start crashing down around her. She opens her eyes.

Viviana: Wha...

She gets up and runs away, but more astroids fall down around her, which she dodges. Suddenly, the trees around her start to take the shapes of Tristan and Diego, and start aguring.

Tristan: HAHA!

Diego: ERR, I'll get you for this!

Tristan: *Blows raspberry* Bet you cant catch me!

Diego: Come here you!

In fact, two trees are strangling each other.

Tristan: STUPID!

Diego: IGNORANTE!

Viviana is confused and frightened. Suddenly, a voice is heard.

Voice: JUST RELAX!

Viviana nods her head then closes her eyes and takes some deep breaths.

Viviana: Relax Viviana, you just have to be strong. BE STRONG!

She opens her eyes, ready for battle. Meanwhile, Tristan is in a beautiful wonderland. He's sitting on a throne made of pillows. In front and off to the right a bit, there's fish swimming in a lake made of pudding,the ground and all the plants are blue, it's raining chocolate milk, and Buddy and Chompy clones are chasing after the townspeople.

Tristan: *Sigh* My life is perfect!

Suddenly, the sky turns red, and Diego appears out of it.

Diego: HAHA! I've got your sack!

Tristan: HEY! GIVE THAT BACK! *Jumps*

Diego: You can't get me way up here! There's nothing you can do about it!

Tristan reaches for a stick and a rock, and grabs a rubber band out of his pocket. He then slings the rock at Diego.

Diego: OUCH! HEY! DON'T DO THAT AGAIN!

Diego zaps Tristan with a lightning bolt. The screen fades to black for a second before we see a split screen between the final three, all of whom have just woken up.

All 3: I'm going to win ths! *Immediately falls back asleep*

Several hours later, in first class, Viviana is sitting in a massage chair sipping her favorite coffee when Diego comes up behind her.

Viviana: Listen, if this is about an alliance, forget about it. I'm not in the mood.

Diego: I was just going to say good luck today. Please do your best. Honestly, I'd rather face off against you than have to put up with Tristan for one more round.

Viviana: Amen to that!

Chris: *Intercom* You know the drill, elimination area, 10 minutes!

Viviana: Whelp, looks like it's showtime.

Diego: You go. I'll catch up.

Viviana: Alright.

10 minutes later...

Chris: Alright...

Tristan: Can anyone guess where we are?

Diego: We're supposed to guess, but sometimes we say something back.

Viviana: Then you tell us where we are.

All 3: So let's just get on with it!

Chef: *Chuckles* They've got you there!

Chris: Fine fine fine. Chef, open the door.

Chef opens the door. Outside is a beautiful looking mountain peak. In front of them is a large table full of food.

Chris: Contestants, welcome to the peak of Tibidabo Mountain in Barcelona, Spain!

Diego nearly faints, but holds his composure.

Chris: You first challenge is this seven course feast. Whoever eats the most wins.

Tristan: Out of my way!

Tristan pushes Diego out of the way and digs in. Diego runs after him. Viviana just shrugs her shoulders, walks up to the table and digs in like a hungry animal.

Conf: Viviana: Look this isn't my favorite type of challenge, but I just need to stay ahead of those two idiots, so whatever it takes.

Tristan is laying on the table furiously eating his food and blocking the others from his side, Viviana is trying to stuff as much food in her mouth as she can, but clearly she is in over her head. Suddenly, Tristan throws a pie in Diego's face.

Tristan: HA! Take that, loser!

Diego: Oh yah?

Diego grabs a pie and throws it at Tristan. Tristan licks the contents off his face.

Tristan: Thanks!

Diego: Why you little...

Diego digs face first into a plate of croquettes and starts devouring them all. Meanwhile, Viviana grabs a bowl of gazpacho and pours it down her mouth, only to have the dish burn her tounge, causing her to drop the dish and her face to turn red. Tristan and Diego furiously battle for supremacy until the entire table of food is gone.

Chris: And the winner is...Tristan.

Diego: What?

Chris: Sorry, but you were so close.

Tristan: YES! So, what did I win?

Chris: Nothing!

Tristan: WHAT?

Chris: You heard me. The thing is that I was going to put on an extravegant feast for the lot of you, but as much as I hate to admit it, you three aren't exactly stupid, so I had to resort to alternative measures.

The contestants' jaws drop after hearing that.

Conf: Diego: So you mean to tell me that I could've skipped this whole challenge and have been much better off? Estúpido! Estúpido! Estúpido!

Conf: Viviana: So you mean to tell me that I could've skipped this whole challenge and have been much better off? *Faints*

Conf: Tristan: So you mean to tell me that I could've skipped this whole challenge and have been much better off? That's...actually that's pretty devious...and funny! HAHAHA! *Stomach growls* Ohhhh, but Chris will pay for this!

Chris: Oh, lighten up! We've got a whole other challenge to do!

The contestants groan. Cuts to everyone standing in front of an amusement park.

Chris: Welcome to Barcelona, home of many mythical beasts!

Viviana: Um, I don't think that's right.

Chris: Athens was booked alright. Any way, your challenge is to pass through the gates of earth, water, fire, and air! Your challenge starts here. Once you find the gate of earth hidden somewhere in this carnival, you are to go to the beach where you will have to make a seaworthy mode of transportation. Along the way you will need to find the second gate before going over to that island waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over there to find the gate of fire.

Viviana: What island?

Chris: You know, that island that you can see over there, if you use binaculars or something, I guess. Any way, after that, you'll need to build a flying device to get to the final gate, the gate of air. First two to make it back here to me goes to the finale. There will be supplies to build your transportation at both of the stations. Got it?

Tristan: That's it?

Chris: Oh yah, and you also have to make it past the guardians of each gate.

Diego: Guardians?

Chris: *To walkie talkie* NOW!

Cuts to an intern pressing a button that opens up a rather large cage. A robot minitaur rushes out of the cage and flings Chef into the air.

Chris: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

...and Chris. It then sees Diego and goes for him.

Diego: Why does it always have to be me lately? I mean what are the odds?

Diego trips. Just as the minitaur stops and gets ready to trample Diego, he gets up.

Diego: Santo cielo! That was close! Gotta get away from this thing!

Suddenly, Diego sees a tent and lures the minitaur into it.

Diego: What does Tristan have in this thing? *reaches into Tristan's sack, pulls out glue* No. *bottle of vinegar* No. *accordion* Why would I even need this? *an airhorn* This might do.

Diego points the airhorn at the beast. The minitaur immediately stops in its tracks and covers its ears. Everyone in the stands laughs as Diego climbs the ladder to the trapeze.

Diego: HA! There's no way he'll reach me here!

Just then, the minitaur rams into the pole.

Diego: Yah, I should've seen that coming.

Just as the entire pole comes down, Diego jumps and grabs on to the trapeze.

Diego: HOW DO I WORK THESE THINGS?

Diego nervously swings back and forth on the trapeze. He tries to jump to the other trapeze but just  misses and lands in a tank of water, where he's greeted by a group of seals.

Diego: Ay Curumba

The seals pick him up and start spinning him with their noses, eventually tossing him out of the tank, where hi's greeted by the minitaur.

Diego: Um, hola?

Suddenly, a raging fire comes out of nowhere which burns Diego and scares the minitaur off.

Diego: AHHHHHHHHHHH! HELP!

Just then, 2 clowns in a toy fire engine spray Diego with water. Meanwhile, Tristan is busy giving a pep talk to himself.

Tristan: Alright, we can still do this! We just have to do whatever it takes, and don't quit!

He continues on as a group of confused people blankly stare at him.

Tristan: *Frustratedly rubs forehead* Look, I know I'm used to using my knapsack for everything, but I don't have it now, I traded it away for a vote. Point is that it's just you now. Are you with me?

Tristan holds his arm up. realizing that he's got no one else, he just starts grabbing peoples' hands and putting them on top of his.

Tristan: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND...BREAK!

As soon as he says that, the minitaur rushes up behind Tristan and rams into him, flinging him up into a roller coaster.

Tristan: Ugh, I should've saw that coming!

Suddenly, a loud THWUMP is heard behind him.

Tristan: PUT YOUR DUKES UP!

As the roller coaster takes off, Tristan tries to fight the beast, but it proves to be too much for him as it nearly pushes him off cart. Suddenly, Tristan looks down and sees a bounce house below.

Tristan: 1...2...3...

Tristan, jumps and bounces off the bounce house, landing safely but wrecking a carnival game in the process.

Worker: Hey, you're going to pay for that!

Tristan: NEVER!

He runs off. The minitaur gets off the roller coaster and chases after him. Along the way, Tristan runs into Viviana.

Tristan: OUT OF MY WAY!

Viviana: Huh?

Tristan pushes her out of the way, then the minitaur flings her into the sky and off the edge of the mountain. There below her are sharp looking rocks. She's hanging on to the edge by a thread. Meanwhile...

Tristan: The gate is right over there!

Tristan rushes over to the gate as fast as he can, pushing a child out of the way to pass it.

Tristan: HA! TAKE THAT LO...

...and the minitaur knocks him off the edge of the peak. They get  wrapped up in a volleyball net and bounce around a few times before landing in the water.

Tristan: Well...I guess this is where the absence of my sack comes in. Screw Diego.

Speaking of Diego...

Diego: *Sigh* I think he likes me.

The beast charges and takes a stab at Diego. He dodges. Diego sees a ferris wheel. He rushes over to it, pushing a couple out of the way.

Diego: Hey estúpido, over here!

The mintaur rushes to the ride. Just as it jumps on a cart, Diego scrambles off of it. He pushes the worker out of the way and starts the ride. He pushes the lever up to maxiumum speed.

Diego: Whelp, that oughta keep him pre-occupied.

Suddenly, he hears something.

Viviana: Um, HELP!

Diego: Huh?

He runs to where he heard the noise.

Viviana: DON'T LOOK DOWN DON'T LOOK DOWN DON'T LOOK DOWN...GAH I LOOKED DOWN!

Diego: Need help?

Viviana: WHAT? I mean yes!

Diego: Here, grab my ha...

Just then, a loud noise is heard.

Diego: What was that?

Diego looks up to see a cart from the ferris wheel. Suddenly, the partially damaged minitaur rises from the wreckage.

Diego: Aye carumba.

Viviana: What? What's going on?

Diego tries to get up and run, but the beast knocks him off the edge before he can do anything. Diego grabs Viviana's leg, but the sudden jerk makes her fall. They continue falling until they land on a branch about halfway down.

Viviana: Great! Now we're both stuck!

Diego: Calm down! We're not that high up!

Viviana looks down, only to see that they are that high up.

Viviana: YIPE!

Diego: Okay so, maybe I was wrong, but don't freak out. Didn't Elyse give you her grappling hook?

Viviana: YES BUT...I'M TOO...IT'S IN MY...

Diego sees the hook sticking out of her pocket, reaches in and pulls it out. It connects and he's able to pull them both to safety. Waiting for them is the minitaur.

Viviana: LOOK OUT!

Diego: Dang, I forgot about him.

Diego pulls out a familiar looking knapsack.

Diego: *Reaches in, pulls out a can of whipped cream* No. *A hat* No. *A milk jug* Trash. *An accordian* What?

He reaches into the sack one more time, and pulls out a red cloth.

Diego: *Sigh* I hate Tristan.

Diego and the minitaur have an epic staredown. Finally, DIego holds up the the sheet and says:

Diego: Ole!

The beast rushes toward him. At the last second, he pulls it away and the beast falls off the edge of the cliff.

Viviana: Thanks for saving me. Now, before we move on, there's something I wanted to ask you.

Diego: What is it?

Viviana: Wasn't that Tristan's knapsack?

Diego: *Pulls sack back, face turns bright red* Um, I don't know what you're talking about.

Viviana: *Rolls eyes* Don't play dumb with me. I know you stole it from Tristan!

Diego: Okay, you caught me. But I didn't steal it, I swear!

Viviana: Oh, yah. Like he just gave it to you!

Diego: Actually, that's exactly what happened.

Viviana: What?

Diego: It's true. I made...

Viviana: A deal with him to vote Elyse off.

Diego: Yes.

Viviana: Well that's just great. Now that probably means you two are ganging up on me now, am I right?

Diego: No! The truth is that I don't like him either, but he kinda...

Viviana: Made some good points and convinced you to vote for her instead of him?

Diego: Yes! How did you know that?

Viviana: Because, he did the exact same thing to me in Bangkok.

Diego: Tristan may be a prankster, but when it comes right down to it, he knows how use logic and reasoning quite well. Maybe he's not so dumb after all.

Viviana: I agree, but when it comes right down to it, I think we're both smarter than him.

Diego: Agreed. I think together, we could outwit him.

Viviana: I already said I don't want to be in an alliance with you!

Conf: Viviana: Oh no, I AM NOT GETTING INVOLVED IN THEIR SILLY FEUD!

Diego: Alright, fine. Let's just get to the first gate and  move on.

Viviana: Fine.
