DUNCAN'S SOUR PRANK
"So this is everything sour you could find here?" Duncan asked Lincoln as the white headed boy nodded, having presented everything in the kitchen that would pucker one's lips. "Nice! Just need some food coloring and we're good to go, how do you know your way around the kitchen so well anyway?"
"Eh I work at a restaurant," Lincoln shrugged as he handed the food coloring to Duncan after finding it in one of the cabinets. "Easy to find where everything is,"
"Eh, fair enough," Duncan shrugged and decided not to question further as he blended all the sour ingredients together with the pink food dye, creating a pink colored drink that looked sweet on the outside but was anything but. Grinning, Duncan poured it into a red plastic cup. "All done, now let's plant it!"
They headed out to the girls trailer with Duncan knocking on the door and putting the cup on the steps to the trailer before the two hid behind Jasmine's large tent. Soon the door opened and just the girl they wanted to see came out. "Who's there?" Ronnie Anne asked irritably before looking around and noticing the drink on the steps and picked it up before noticing some writing on the cup and reading it out loud. "A drink as sweet as you Dawn, love Lincoln. Ugh gag! Has that Lame-O always been this sappy?"
Rolling eyes Ronnie Anne then grinned deviously as she held the cup up. "Well finders keepers~" Ronnie Anne then began chugging the drink down…and immediately felt the effects of it. "Mmmmmmm!!!" Ronnie Anne dropped the drink in shock as her mouth was overwhelmed with incredible sourness, her lips puckering up more then they ever had before to the point she couldn't open her mouth up. "Mmmmm!!! Mmmmmmmm!!!"
"Ahahahaha!" Duncan and Lincoln laughed before sharing a high five.
"Oh that was so satisfying!" Beth laughed along with everyone else. "Didn't think I'd see the two working together on a prank after last season when Lincoln kinda ruined his prank on Harold."
"Duncan's matured a lot sense then, but at the same time remains so immature," Courtney shook her head fondly before preparing the last clip. "And with this last clip we'll see DJ's sweet side, in more ways than one!"
DJ'S SWEET TREAT
DJ smiled as he sat down at one of the tables to enjoy lunch, the brickhouse grinning as he was eager to eat some of his cooking. He hoped it wasn't too egotistical to say this but he was pretty dang good in the kitchen! And it warmed his heart to see everyone enjoying his food too.
"Aw dang it!" DJ blinked a few times as he heard Jasmine yell out from the line, the Australian Amazon still waiting to get her food from Chef and obviously not happy about something. "What happened to all the desserts?"
Chef pointed to Owen who had helped himself to a bunch of pudding cups that were being served for dessert that lunch. "Bloody hell…" Jasmine growled towards Owen before slumping down a bit. "Great…and I was getting a sweet tooth as well…"
Seeing Jasmine all down trodden at this, the brickhouse looked at his own pudding cup that he grabbed. Smiling, DJ picked it up and sneaked up towards Jasmine's tray and set it down and quickly went back to his table before someone could see him. "Just gotta deal…huh?" But when Jasmine turned back towards her tray she was surprised to see a pudding cup on it. "What the…where'd this come from?"
Jasmine scratched her head a bit before ultimately smiling and shrugging and went to sit down, DJ having a proud smile on his face.
"Aaaawww," Beth gushed out at the cute display. "I don't know what's sweeter, the pudding or DJ!"
"I knew there was something going on between the two of them!" Sadie clapped her hands, grinning widely at the display of pure fluff. "DJ totally has a thing for Jasmine!"
"I think anyone can see that," Courtney giggled a little bit before looking towards the camera again. "We'll have more clips for you later on, but for now I think it's time we introduce our next guest to the show! Want to take this one Beth?"
"Gladly!" Beth giggled as she looked at the tablet as the screen above them started playing clips of Gwen. "Gwen started out the season as a strong competitor and a fan favorite! The runner up of the last season taking 2nd out of 24! She may not have won the money but she won the heart of Trent and got to witness in person Heather being shaved bald! If that's not a prize I don't know what is! Things were looking up for her this season up until the fantasy movie challenge where she accidentally threw the wrong spatula into the lava!"
"Our next guest was once buried alive, has two lizards, and once stuffed her pants with a tray of ice cubes," Courtney listed off some memorable things about the next guest coming on before gesturing to the area they'd be entering in. "It's Gwen!"
The fanfare began again as Gwen walked up to the set, waving to everyone as she entered. "Woohoo!!!" Cody cheered loudly as he stood up at the sight of his goth crush. "Go Gwen! Yeah!"
"Mind turning down the simping please?" Noah irritably asked as he covered his ears. "Or at least do it away from me?"
"Never!" Cody shouted as Gwen gave him an awkward look. But then Eva's fist came down and gave Cody a bonk on the head leading him to slump down on his seat in a daze. "Uuuugh…"
"Thank you Eva," Noah said as Eva dusted her hands off.
"Yeah no problem," Eva sent him a nod.
"Well good to know Cody's so…enthusiastic." Gwen rolled her eyes a bit. She still considered Cody a friend, he did help hook her up with Trent, but he could still be a bit…much. "Well it's good to see everyone again. Glad to see you're doing well Courtney."
"Why thanks Gwen, it's nice to see you again too," Courtney kindly and politely greeted the goth girl before getting right to the interview. "So Gwen me and Beth are gonna ask you some questions. Just make sure to answer truthfully because…"
"The hammer?" Gwen pointed upwards where the hammer was still set up. "Yeah I saw it in the waiting room. Don't worry, I don't plan on lying about anything. Lay it on me,"
"So Gwen, how does it feel falling down from your high placement from last season?" Courtney began asking the first question. "It's gotta sting going from second place to second last."
"Yeah I won't lie, definitely sucks falling down in the rankings," Gwen shrugged, just telling it like it was. "But can't say I blame my team for voting me off, I did kind of screw things up for them and allowed the other team to win. But hey the Gaffers have been doing pretty well since then, I'm the only member that's been voted out so far so happy for that. No offense Beth."
"None taken," Beth reassured the goth. "It's been fun seeing Ronnie Anne get all pissed off, I mean four loses in a row? That's the biggest losing streak of Total Drama so far! And I had to accidentally curse my team to get the Gopher's three times streak."
"Hey that's just karma kicking in," Gwen shrugged with a small smile. Even if she was voted out early she can still be happy for her, and happy that the Grips weren't doing so well. "That and Ronnie Anne's sucking as a leader."
"Too true," Beth snorted a little before everyone watched as an intern walked up onto the set. Everyone gave them raised brows as the intern handed Beth a queue card before walking off. "What the-Hey why'd you give me this?"
"What's it say?" Courtney asked.
"Let me see," Beth adjusted her glasses a bit before reading the card. "Hey Gwen, don't you think you were getting really close with Courtney's boyfriend during the begin-W-What?"
"Let me see that?" Courtney angrily took the card from Beth and read it over herself.
"W-What? Duncan?" Gwen looked a bit uncomfortable at that question. "No, we're just friends. Sure we have a lot in common but there's nothing wrong with that,:
"You can relax Gwen, it's just the producers trying to stir up drama," Courtney rolled her eyes before she ripped up the card. "Honestly, I should have expected this…"
"Don't we already have enough drama with Ronnie Anne?" Gwen asked dryly while rolling her eyes. Freaking producers always sticking their noses in things.
"Tell me about it," Beth nodded in agreement before asking Gwen a real question. "But speaking of her, what are your thoughts on Ronnie Anne and the other newcomers for the season?"
"Well I really liked Jasmine, we didn't get to talk much but she seemed like a nice person, wouldn't mind getting to know her better once the season is over. As for Mike, well at first I thought he was really weird but after I got kicked off I saw the episodes and found out about his condition and well it made me really happy that Trent took him under his wing and became the guy's real friend. Just reminds me why I love Trent so much," Gwen explained her thoughts on the first two newcomers before her face soured a bit as she got to the third. "As for Ronnie Anne, well I don't think I can say anything no one else hasn't already said. So all I can add is that Lincoln told me what went down between them during the castaway challenge. I fully believe when couples break up almost always both sides have something to do with it but Ronnie Anne was completely in the wrong. She has no right acting the way she is, she's just throwing one massive temper tantrum like a 6-year-old."
"Heh, couldn't have said it better myself," Courtney smirked a bit and nodded at Gwen's words before checking her tablet. "Now let's answer some viewer questions! You wanna ask the first one Beth?"
"I'd love to!" Courtney handed Beth the tablet allowing her to read a question from it. "BattleCry85 ask, 'When did you first become Goth."
"Oh that's a good question," Gwen smiled a bit as she put a finger to her chin as she thought hard about her answer. "I've definitely been a Goth for a while, I wanna say since…4th grade. 5th grade at the latest."
"Huh, usually people don't go goth until Middle School. At least from what I've seen," Courtney was a bit surprised to hear that as she probed for more information. "What made you wanna go goth then?"
"Well I guess you could call me a bit 'different' than most of the girls in my town," Gwen began answering, this part of the question a lot easier to remember and provided an answer. "While all the other girls my age were going boy crazy and doll crazy and makeup crazy, I actually had taste. Was always interested in art and literature, especially the darker stuff. I found it fascinating how people like that thought and saw the world. And over time it just became a part of my personality and well, I am who I am now."
"They do make some really cool stuff. Creepy, but cool!" Courtney complimented, finding the appeal in the stuff Gwen was talking about. She had written reports about stuff like that before and found an appreciation for it as well. "And AstroSpider asks, 'do you get mad when people get emo and goth mixed up?"
"There's a difference?" Beth ignorantly asked.
"…" Gwen was silent as she inhaled deeply through her nose.
"Now you've done it…" Courtney let out with a sigh.
"I won't go on a rant about this…I'll keep this brief since I know we have limited time," Gwen grumbled a bit while crossing her arms grumpily. "Goth's are people interested in the darker themes of life, art and culture, really going deep into introspective themes and looking at the world in different ways than everyone else. Emo's are just depressed mean spirits jerks."
"Well that certainly won't get fan outrage…" Courtney sighed out, already prepared to face potential angry emails before looking at the next question. "And next up 'CaioCoia asked, 'Gwen, how are you handling the popularity now that you are one of the most iconic goths on reality shows? Any plans to use your popularity to help your future projects?"
"Oh boy, well it's certainly different that's for sure," Gwen let out as she leaned back in her seat. "One time during the off season I went to my favorite coffee shop for a latte, practically the entire store swarmed me asking me for autographs and stuff! I did get my latte for free at least, but it was…a lot. I was used to just having my own group of friends while being invisible to the rest of the world so this was certainly a change to say the absolute least."
"Trust me, I get it. Kinda went through the same myself," Beth explained, remembering when she was swarmed by fans quite a few times. "But what about the second part of the question?"
"Well, I would love to get people to think more about the environment. I know a lot of celebrities do that…some more honestly than others," Gwen grumbled that last part, knowing there are some people who couldn't care less about the environment and only use it to get more supporters and fans. "But it would be cool for my celebrity status to also help with a future art career. Kinda selfish I know but hey art can be a difficult career and you gotta take every advantage you can get."
"That's fair, as long as you don't take too big of an advantage of it that should be fine. And one more question Gwen," Beth spoke up, giving Gwen the same last question she was given. "Who do you want to win the million dollars?"
"Well call me predictable but my top picks are definitely Trent and Leshawna." Gwen announced who she was rooting for. "Trent's my boyfriend and Leshawna's my best friend so I'm hoping either of them win."
"Good answer Gwen," Courtney complimented before looking at the tablet again and seeing they had another call in. "And it looks like we're getting a call for you Gwen from someone named…Ella!"
"Wait, Ella?" Gwen blinked a few times before smiling and urging Courtney to answer the call. "That's my cousin, go ahead and answer it."
"Oh so this is the cousin we heard about," Courtney said, remembering Gwen talking about her cousin to Trent during the Fantasy episode. "Well let's see her for ourselves."
Courtney then answered the call and appearing on screen was a 13-year-old girl sitting on a pink bed in a room that was decorated pink from bottom to top with the room being filled with stuffed animals, princess dolls and posters, and instruments of all kinds. The girl herself had fair skin, black eyes, and black hair that was done in a Snow White style with a pink headband along with a pink My Little Pony shirt with a long sleeved blue jacket over it, a long pink shirt that went to her knees, and a pair of black boots. And on her jacket there was a patch of the Pan-Flag sewed onto it. "Oh! I went through! Yay!" The girl known as Ella clapped her hands, speaking in a peppy voice as she looked at the screen excitedly, turning her gaze to her goth cousin. "Hi Gwenny! It's so good to see you again!"
"It's good to see you too Ella," Gwen greeted her cousin with a small chuckle with many looking between Gwen and Ella in surprise. "But you saw me during the off season."
"I know but I still miss you!" Ella grinned and giggled a bit before looking towards everyone else. "And it's so nice to meet all of you! I'm such a huge fan! I've been watching every episode since Gwen was accepted to the show and I was so proud to see her make it to 2nd place!"
"Well it's a pleasure to meet you as well Ella, glad to have you on the show with us," Courtney told the 13-year-old making her let out a fan girlish squeal. "So Gwen told Trent, and by proxy everyone watching, that your quite the musical prodigy care to elaborate on that,"
"I don't know about that," Ella sheepishly smiled as she looked at all the instruments in her room. "I just dabble here and there is all,"
"Come on Ella, don't be so modest," Gwen told her cousin before looking at everyone. "I wasn't kidding guys. She can play electric, acoustic, and bass guitar, drums, the harp, flute, piano, and has a great singing voice. Even writes her own songs,"
"Ooooo, think we could hear something?" Beth asked as she looked up at the screen Ella was on. "We'd love to hear it!"
"Well…if you all don't mind, I'd love to!" Ella grinned excitedly before reaching off screen and grabbing one of her guitars, a sparkling pink one that had a bunch of anime and cartoon stickers on it along with a pan flag sticker, and held it up. "This is a song I've been working on lately, I only got the first verse down but let me know what you all think! I'd love to get some outside opinions."
Everyone watched as Ella began strumming her guitar, showing off her skills as she began playing a soft and pleasing tone before singing.
Ella:
Mmmmmm…
Mmmmmm…
In this life
Nothing's ever how you thought it would be
Easy to some
Harder for people like you and me
But in this world
Just when you're racing through the eye of the storm
There's always a calling
A compass to lead you home!
Immediately everyone began bobbing their heads and tapping the toes to the music. Everyone had to agree, Ella had a beautiful singing voice and was playing the guitar expertly.
Ella:
When things are all dark and grey
And nobody knows just what to say
Dig deep inside and you will feel
An inner strength, an inner steel!
Ella then finished off as everyone began applauding the younger girl. "Oh that was so good!" Katie complimented with Sadie nodding in agreement. "I'd love to hear the whole thing when it's finished!"
"Me too!" Gwen nodded as she gave her cousin a proud look. "Seriously Ella, that was amazing."
"Oh come on you're all making me blush!" Ella let out as she covered her red face with her hands. "I'm so glad you all liked it!"
"You weren't kidding Gwen, she is good," Courtney clapped for Ella as she looked up at the screen. "It was a real treat meeting you Ella, but I'm afraid we're going to have to move on now."
"That's ok! Thanks for having me on the show!" Ella waved to everyone with a bright smile. "Bye Gwen! It was great to see you! And bye everyone else, it was a pleasure getting to meet and play for all of you!"
"Bye Ella!" Everyone watched the younger girl off before Courtney hung up on her.
"Well she's certainly a delight," Courtney giggled a bit as she looked at Gwen. "Won't lie Gwen kind of hard to believe that she's your cousin though,"
"Trust me, we get that all the time," Gwen chuckled while rolling her eyes. A nickel for every time she's heard that. "We couldn't be anymore different, she's just a big bundle of positive energy and optimism and I won't lie it can get on my nerves from time to time but she's my cousin and I still love her and wouldn't trade her for anything."
"Aaawww," Beth, Katie, and Sadie let out.
"Well Gwen thank you for being here with us today," Courtney said before looking towards the camera. "Before we go to our next and my personal favorite guest, it's time for our next set of clips! See for yourself the most painful moments we've had on Total Drama Action yet with…That's Gonna Leave a Mark!"
THAT'S GONNA LEAVE A MARK
Whimsical music began playing as a montage of the most ouch inducing moments of the show so far started.
"Chirp! Chirp!" But the bird wasn't too happy with this intruder and immediately flew up to Tyler and began pecking his face.
"Ow! Ow! This looks so easy when Dawn does it! Ow!" Tyler let out before the bird pecked his eyes causing Tyler to fall down and hit a flower case. "Ow!" And then balcony railing. "Ow!" And then a sleeping cat that clawed at him. "Ow!" And then finally landing on the girls. "Ow!"
"Oooowww…" Beth and Lindsay groaned out.
Chef then got to shooting the helpless contestants. Owen was an easy target with Chef easily shooting him in the back. "Ah! I'm hit!" Owen yelled as he fell to the ground before throwing Mr. Coconut forward. "Save yourself Mr. Coconut!" But right as Owen threw Mr. Coconut Chef shot him down.
"NOOOOOOOOO!!!" Owen yelled out in despair as he crawled up his fruity friend. "Speak to me buddy! Speak to me please!!!"
"I…can't…" And with that, the mighty Owen fell to the ground, his belt slipping off his sweat covered head.
"O-Oh boy!" Duncan grunted. Once Owen was down for the count the guys felt the full weight of the trailer weighing down on them. "It's coming down! Bail guys!"
Duncan, Geoff, and Justin were all quick to jump away before the trailer could crush them. Tyler however wasn't so lucky. "W-Wait-" Tyler tried to get away but it was too late. The trailer completely ran over him as it went back down the hill faster than any of the guys could catch up with, leaving a run over Tyler behind. "Uuuuugh…"
"Yeah!" Lindsay clapped her hands as she got up on the board with Chris immediately starting it. Lindsay had a bit of trouble balancing at first but seemed to quickly get the hang of it as she held her arms out and got a good footing. Everything seemed to be going well for her…until Chris flipped a switch and changed the back of the green screen to a twister on a Kansas farm with Chef turning on a huge fan that blew at enough force to send Lindsay flying off the board and onto the green screen. "Ow…"
Before Bridgette could fire on them Tyler was suddenly tackled to the ground and put in a headlock…by Izzy. "Die wizard scum!" Izzy yelled out before punching Tyler in the face repeatedly.
"Ow! Izzy! Ow! We're! Ow! On! Ow! The! Ow! Same! Ow! Team!" Tyler out between punches. "Stop hitting me!"
"AAAAA-" Mike was about to scream out loud from the scare, but that scream soon turned into a gasp as Mike seemed to change again. His hair fell down forming bangs that covered his right eye with bags forming underneath his eyes. Instead of screaming, 'Mike' let out a growl as he reared his fist back and-
BAM!!!
"Ah! Dude!" The sea monster let out as it held its not bruised cheek. Taking off the mask, the sea monster was revealed to be Geoff who gave 'Mike' a glare. "Ow! What the heck man?!"
Suddenly Izzy watched as the giant book came rocketing at her at top speed. But before it hit her. "IZZY WATCH OUT!!!" Suddenly Izzy found herself being pushed out of the way by Owen as the book came at him and-
CRUNCH!!!
A loud crunching sound echoed throughout as the mighty Owen was tossed back and landed on his back, the book having hit him right in the jaw as his teeth were now broken and shattered.
"Alright! I'm next!" Tyler cheered as he took the course next for the Grips while Bridgette stepped up for the Gaffers. Bridgette easily cleared the long jump with Tyler getting a good running start. "Extrem-WOAH!"
But unfortunately for Tyler he ended up tripping as he was about to jump, leading him to fall down towards the dogs.
BARK! BARK! BARK!
BITE! BITE! BITE!
SCRATCH! SCRATCH! SCRATCH!
"OW! OW! OW! OW!" Tyler yelled out in pain as the dogs all bit and scratched him. Everyone watching winced as the jock desperately pulled himself out of the literal dog pile looking a bit beat up with his jump suit all torn up. "I'm ok! I'm o-Ow!" But Tyler then began getting poked by all the shivs, experiencing more pain. But he soaked it all up and ran to the next part. "I'm almost there! I'm almost-Gah!" Tyler was then shot by a ball of the prison food, sending him down to the ground.
"Woohoo!Let'sdothis!" Bridgette grinned as she immediately started running through the path. Her team's eyes widened in alarm at Bridgette recklessly running through it…but then they noticed Bridgette somehow wasn't stepping on anything. The Grips all looked shocked as it looked like Bridgette was about to breeze right through it…until she reached the middle point and Bridgette started slowing down. "W-Woah…hey guys…why is everyone spinning…"
"Uh-oh," The Gaffers let out as they all knew what was coming.
Everyone watched as Bridgette face planted on the ground, landing on numerous objects in the process.
The montage then ended with Beth blinking a few times as she realized something. "Wow…Tyler made up a lot of those…" The glasses wearing girl slowly let out.
"Yeah I noticed that too, surprised he's still alive," Courtney slowly said before shaking her head and smiling at the camera. "Well it's time for our next guest! Duncan was a juggernaut going in having won last season and all. He had a wide diversity of skills and toughness that couldn't be matched by most. Unfortunately Ronnie Anne saw and had him voted off as he was the only one who wouldn't fall for her schemes which made him a liability."
"Our next guest was sent to juvenile hall, tricked Harold into drinking kitchen grease, was last season's big winner!" Beth began listing things about their next guest star. "And-"
"Is in a relationship with the hottest girl on the show~" Courtney brought up playfully.
"Feeling modest today huh?" Beth teased with an eye roll.
"It's one of my better traits," Courtney smirked as the people around her chuckled. "It's Duncan!"
The fanfare was heard again and this time everyone's favorite delinquent with a green mohawk walked onto the set. "Sup nerds," Duncan greeted everyone as he sat himself next to Gwen on the seats. "Great to see ya babe, just as gorgeous as ever~"
"Well, well, look who it is," Courtney was flattered but couldn't resist taking a small jab at her boyfriend. "He who has fallen from grace,"
"Debatable if he was there in the first place," Gwen teased as Duncan playfully hit her shoulder.
"Yeah, yeah, everyone get your jokes in now," Duncan said with a good natured eye roll. "I know I blew it."
"Oh get in here you big lug," Courtney leaned up to Duncan and gave the delinquent a kiss on the cheek that he was glad to receive. Suddenly losing didn't feel so bad anymore. "I'm glad to see you,"
"Good to be back with ya babe," Duncan told his girlfriend before relaxing in his seat. "So, gonna ask me questions now with the looming threat of a hammer hanging over my head?"
"Pretty much," Beth shrugged as she decided to start up with the question. "So Duncan, you were the big winner last season and now you were the third kicked off. Where did you think things went wrong?"
"I'll give you one hint. She's a psychotic Mexican chick." Duncan stated bluntly as everyone nodded in understanding. "Yeah, I wasn't too thrilled to be on a team with snowball's crazy Ex. Thinking now, should have probably played along with her scheme and try to pull the rug from under her and convince the team to vote her off later on."
"Well that's just how it is with mistakes," Courtney reassured her boyfriend as she grabbed his hand softly. "We learn from them and try and do better,"
"Yeeeah, but most mistakes don't cost a million bucks babe," Duncan told her with a bit of a smirk as Courtney merely rolled her eyes. Just then an intern walked onto set again and handed Courtney a queue care before running off. "What's that Court?"
"Oh geez not again…" Courtney rolled her eyes before speed reading what was on the card. "Duncan how could you get so cozy with Gwen-seriously?! This little scheme isn't gonna work!"
"Um, context please?" Duncan asked as he turned to Gwen.
"Producers trying to start drama, you know how it goes," Gwen explained with a scoff. "Trying to play it up like we were getting all close and junk,"
"Eh I'm not into the pasty ones," Duncan shrugged, getting Gwen to give him a little kick.
"Ugh let's move on," Courtney let out before asking the next question. "Duncan, you gave your thoughts on Ronnie Anne, but how about Jasmine and Mike. Seems like you have a history with one of his personalities."
"Well with Jasmine let's just say I'm glad to have not gotten on her bad side," Duncan kept his opinion on Jasmine brief, barely interacted with her but he was sure she could kick his butt. "As for Mike, well I only knew the guy as Mal. Don't know all the details but apparently he got into some serious trouble roughing up this group of guys that were giving him a hard time. He was at Juvie for a short time but he was definitely ready to take charge if not for his parents managing to get him out. Guess I know why now based on the whole personality disorder thing. Still can't say I trust the guy but I'm willing to see what he does,"
"I'm sure he's not as bad as you think he is Duncan, Mike seems sweet," Beth told the delinquent before looking at the table. "Now let's move onto the viewer's questions! Courtney, he's your boyfriend so you should have the honors."
"Why thank you Beth," Courtney took the tablet from Beth and read the first question they had. "Cornholio4 asks, 'How does it feel to forfeit the $100,000 prize in the first season and now you have zilch to show for it' wow not holding back on this one huh?"
"I'll make sure to treat him to say if I ever meet him in real life," Duncan glared at the camera and made a threatening 'I'm watching you gesture' before gesturing to Courtney. "And what do you mean zilch? I got a hot girlfriend out of it didn't I?"
"That you do~" Courtney confirmed as she gave Duncan a kiss on the cheek.
"There see, that ain't zilch," Duncan bragged before crossing his arms in satisfaction. "Granted losing the money sucks but hey no use belly aching about it, I still got something good going here."
"Pretty mature answer Duncan," Beth complimented the delinquent before reading the next question they had for him. "And Green_Eldritch asks, 'Why are you afraid of Celine Deon Standees?' Oooooooo!"
"…Crap…" Duncan grumbled as everyone at the studio gave him an amused look.
"Well Duncan~" Courtney leaned closer to her boyfriend with an eager grin. "Care to tell us~"
"You know you can't get out of this~" Gwen gave him a playful shoulder bump.
"Alright, alright, fine! If it'll make you freaks happy," Duncan let out a grumpy sigh as everyone got a good giggle out of him. "When I was a kid my friends stole one from a music store once. They messed with me by putting it in places I go to a lot. I open my closet and boom it was there, I open my locker, and boom it was there. Got to the point where I got paranoid and the next time I saw it I ripped it to shreds before giving my friends all a black eye."
"Aw, what's wrong Duncan? Can't take a joke?" Courtney asked her boyfriend in a teasing tone. "Here I thought you'd see the humor in something like that,"
"I'll make sure I order some green gelatin the next time we have a date," Duncan stated with his own smirk, causing Courtney to flinch and shut up. "That's what I thought~"
"A-Anyway, next question," Courtney cleared her throat awkwardly before reading the next question. "Dag asks 'What was Mal like when you were in Juvie, got any stories?' Ya know I'm pretty curious about this myself you sounded really scared of him."
"For good reason, trust me the dude can be vicious when he wants to be," Duncan quickly informed everyone, knowing just the story to tell for this question. "One time in the yard, it was Mal's first day. There was this guy we called Big Johnny, he practically ruled the place. Imagine if DJ was a psychopath, he had the power to back up anything. Mal called him out and everyone was prepared to see Big Johnny snap him like a twig. But instead we saw some of the guards taking him away to the nurse with multiple teeth knocked out."
"Seriously?" Courtney asked with a bit of disbelief. "Someone as skinny as Mike, or Mal I guess, beat someone built like DJ in a fight?"
"Trust me babe, I've seen it with my own eyes," Duncan told Courtney in a tone that showed he wasn't kidding. "The guy may be small but he can pack a hell of a punch."
"Well, let's hope no one gets too much on his bad side then. So last question Duncan," Courtney asked her boyfriend the usual last question. "Who do you want to see win the million dollars?"
"Hmmm, good question…" Duncan hummed a bit in thought before giving his answer. "Gotta say either DJ or Geoff, they were my buds back on the Island so I gotta say I'm rootin' for them."
"Hm, I guess that makes sense," Courtney nodded in approval of the answer, looking at the tablet and seeing that they were getting another call. "And it looks like we're getting a call from a…Mrs. Green, wait Duncan is that your mom?"
"Oh boy yeah it is," Duncan said out as he rested his head on his hands. "Go ahead and answer it, I know she's just gonna drive here if we don'tt."
"Well alright then," Courtney shrugged and answered the call and appearing on screen was a woman with short blond hair and blue eyes wearing pearl earrings and a red sweater. "Hello Mrs. Green! You're on the air!"
"Hi everyone! It's great to meet all of you!" Mrs. Green smiled and waved to everyone kindly before she directed her attention to her son. "Oh it's good to see you again sweetie, I'm so sorry about what happened on the show. Can't believe you got out after getting first place last time,"
"Eh just how the game is ma. Probably shouldn't have underestimated Ronnie Anne," Duncan shrugged, taking his loss like a man. At least he wasn't worried about not being able to get himself out of Juvie, during his week back home he was told he might get out early based on good behavior. "But hey it's not so bad, get to enjoy this hotel with Courtney and everything,"
"You're girlfriend! I've been so excited to meet her!" Mrs. Green clapped her hands excitedly as she turned to look at Courtney. "It's such a pleasure to meet you Courtney! Duncan I'm so proud you found yourself a pretty, nice, and smart girl."
"Oh, thank you ma'am," Courtney blushed a little at the praise. "That means a lot."
"Ah geez…" Duncan groaned as Gwen gave him an amused look.
"Really he needs a good girl to keep him out of trouble," Mrs. Green laughed a bit as Duncan's eyes widened in alarm. "With you around hopefully he won't pull anymore Happy Nude Year stunts,"
"Happy Nude Year?" Beth questioned as raised brows were sent Duncan's way. "What's that?"
"Pfffft!" Gwen let out as she covered her mouth with a hand.
"Ok ma! Thanks for calling!" Duncan quickly said, wanting to end this call before his mom embarrassed him further. "But you should be going now,"
"Hehe, whatever you say Duncan. But I'll be calling later, I want a proper conversation with your girlfriend." Mrs. Green said with a smirk that Courtney mirrored, causing Duncan to groan a bit. "Love you sweetie,"
"Love you too ma…" Duncan sighed out as Courtney hung up on Mrs. Green.
"Well she's nice." Courtney said with a teasing tone. "Sooo…Happy Nude Year, gonna get the story for that?"
"I know that story~" Gwen said in a sing-song voice.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! We swore to secrecy!" Duncan stated, pointing out their promise during the castaway challenge. "You out me and I out you,"
Gwen merely shrugged playfully as Beth and Courtney giggled before the latter spoke up to the camera. "Well I'll pry that story out of you later," Courtney grinned as Duncan groaned again and buried his face into his hands. "For now we have one more set of clips before we get to our last guest! I like to call this segment, Kiss and Tell~"
An 'oooooo' soundtrack was played as Courtney got to explaining what it was. "Now we got a lot of couples on the show and they love showing affection," Courtney explained as she got the clips up with the tablet. "But sometimes they go a bit too far with their affection to where it's cut from the show. So here are some exclusive clips of the spicier moments you didn't get to see."
BRIDGETTE AND GEOFF GET A TAN
In the quarters of the host with the most himself Chris McLain, the man was walking up to the tanning booth he had and was prepared to receive some much needed artificial rays. "Ah privacy," Chris grinned as he took off his shirt and tossed it to the side. "Time to catch some sweet artificial rays." Chris opened up his tanning booth…only to see it was occupied.
Smooch~ Smooch~
"Mmmmm~" Bridgette and a shirtless Geoff let out as they clung onto each other and made out on the tanning bed, both wearing protective goggles of course.
"My tanomatic 3000!" Chris shouted in anger and disgust. "It's been tainted!"
"Um…" Bridgette awkwardly began. "It sure smells nice in here hehe…"
"Yeah, like uh, coconut!" Geoff sheepishly grinned with Chris not looking amused.
"Wow, making out in Chris' quarters." Beth let out in an impressed tone. "I thought Bridgette was joking when she talked about that! How'd they get in there?"
"Good question, you'd think Chris would have his quarter locked up as tight as Fort Knox." Courtney spoke up before shrugging and putting up the next clip. "And here we have a clip of Tyler and Lindsay, let's hope she can remember his name this time."
SHOWER ASSISTANCE
"Hey babe! I'm back!" Tyler yelled out as he stepped into the communal bathrooms, a bottle of shampoo in his hands. Heather was currently hogging the shower in the trailer so Lindsay had to settle for the shower in the bathrooms. "And I got that shampoo ya wanted!"
"Thanks so much Tyler! My hair really needed it!" Lindsay thanked the jock as she opened the shower door and stuck her hand out, allowing Tyler to hand her the bottle he was carrying. "What would I ever do without you?"
"Happy to help anytime babe," Tyler reassured his girlfriend before turning around. "Enjoy the shower, I'm gonna go hang out with the guys."
"Oh wait before you go," Lindsay quickly said before her boyfriend could run off. "Think you could come in and get my back please?"
"…You want me to go in and do your back?" Tyler slowly asked, wondering if he heard that right.
"Yeah sometimes it's hard for me to reach back here," Lindsay said, talking about like this was the most normal thing in the world to ask your boyfriend to do. "I'd really appreciate it if you came in and helped me out."
"…Ok!" Adopey and perverted grin came to Tyler's face as he took his shirt off and went into the shower with his girlfriend.
"Mmmm…yeah just like that Tyler," Lindsay said, both being hidden behind the shower door but could still be heard. "W-Woah…hehe Tyler that's not my back~ Mmmmm that tickles~ Stop~"
"Aw come on babe~" Tyler chuckled back as Lindsay continued to giggle. "You know you love it~"
"Heheheheh~" Lindsay giggled rather pervertedly.
"…" Everyone was silent as the clip ended with some of the guys grinning a little bit. "I don't think he was doing her back," Noah pointed out with a grin.
"Are you sure we're allowed to show these?" Beth asked with a whisper.
"Hey I was given the clips to show, I didn't pick them out," Courtney whispered back to Beth. "Now for our last clip we have the fan favorite couple Lincoln and Dawn, let's see what these two got up to!"
A COFFIN LOAD OF FUN
"Dawn? Dawn, where are you?" Lincoln called out to his girlfriend, still wearing his werewolf costume. He was currently back at the set where the challenge took place with Dawn asking him to stay behind for a bit after everyone left. Everyone was gone but Dawn suddenly disappeared. "You said you need my help with something."
"Oh Lincoln~" Dawn finally called out to him as a nearby coffin opened up with Dawn's hand sticking out and beckoning Lincoln to come closer. "I'm over here~"
"Dawn? What are you doing in a coffin?" Lincoln asked as he walked over to the coffin…only for Dawn to drag him in and close the lip of it shut. "W-Woah! What's going on?"
"Just want to have some fun is all~" Dawn told him before the clip was suddenly fast forwarded. About an hour later the coffin opened back up and Dawn walked out with a limp and a satisfied look on her face with Lincoln red faced and panting. "Heheheh~ Love you sweetie~"
"Love you too~" Lincoln managed to let out.
"OoOoOoOh!" Cody hollored out with a big grin as most of the guys gave Lincoln looks of approval, some of the girls giving Dawn a cheer. "I think she sucked more than his blood~"
"We can't legally say what they did/might've done." Courtney quickly told the camera with a dash of pink on her cheeks.
"I think she's walking with a limp now," Beth pointed out.
"MOVING ON!" Courtney yelled out as she quickly began showing clips of Owen on the screen. "Owen began the season like he does most days, by eating. A lot. But for the competition Owen had one single goal, win back the heart of Izzy. Despite her turning him down at every opportunity, he kept trying but eventually won her back. But at the cost of his jaw! During the Disaster Movie challenge Owen's jaw was completely busted and had to go to the hospital to get wired shut and now for the next month Owen is forced to drink all his meals through a blender and a straw which lead to his elimination."
"Our next guest danced naked, spawned with salmon, is best friends with a coconut, and is dating the personification of danger," Beth began listing things everyone knows about the big guy himself. "It's Owen!"
The fanfare was heard again as Owen eagerly ran onto the stage with a cheering soundtrack heard. "Hey guys! It's awesome to be here!" Owen grinned widely, showing his still wired jaw and in his hands was his beloved Mr. Coconut. "So good to see everyone again! Hi Noah! Hi Eva!"
"Hey Owen," Both Noah and Eva greeted their friend with a small smile and wave.
"Owen it's so good to see you again," Courtney greeted the big guy kindly as he sat down in the seats behind Duncan and Gwen.
"Don't forget Mr. Coconut too," Owen brought up as he held up the fruit.
"R-Right," Courtney stuttered a bit as she and nearly everyone gained a bit of a creeped out look before continuing on. "So Owen I am so sorry for what happened to you! I think you took the biggest blow to the show so far!"
"Thanks Courtney, and it's not so bad. This crystal thingy Dawn gave me really helped dulled down the pain. Plus it's been fun finding new blended drink combinations!" Owen said as he pulled out a blender and a random assortment of food, blended it all together, and drank it down in one gulp earning a lot of cringing faces. "Aaaaah, blended goodness…"
"Dude, do you even have any taste buds?" Duncan asked in a disgusted tone.
"Yep! And they are in blended heaven!" Owen cheered as the delinquent rolled his eyes before Owen picked up Mr. Coconut again. "Plus I still have Mr. Coconut! And I won Izzy back! For her I'd do it all over again!"
"Aawww, that's really sweet Owen," Beth gushed at the statement. What can she say? She loved love! "So Owen, ready to answer some questions? I should warn you about the hammer first."
"What hammer?" Owen asked, completely naive. Looking up, Owen's eyes widened as he saw a hammer above him ready to swing. "AAAAHHH!! A HAMMER!"
"Just calm down Owen!" Noah called out to the big guy. "Just tell the truth and you'll be ok."
"O-Ok," Owen gulped a bit but nodded his head. "I promise to tell the truth and nothing but the truth!"
"Ok then Owen," Courtney began first as she gave the usual starting question. "So as you know you were joined by three new castmates for this season. Care to share your thoughts on them?"
"Oh they were awesome!" Owen gave a very Owen-like answer as he rose up his hands. "Jasmine seems really sweet even though she's also really scary, I think I saw some sparks between her and DJ~ Heheheh~ And Mike seems pretty cool too, never met someone with a mental disorder before but I think his other personalities are really fun. And Ronnie Anne, well…she was pretty mean but she was also at least a little nice to me. Her and Lincoln used to be friends before the break up so she can't be all bad. Maybe she's just a little sour over the break up is all."
"Owen you're too nice and innocent for your own good," Beth chuckled fondly before checking the tablet. "Now let's get some viewer questions! Stargazers_Fan asks, do you have any regrets?"
"…WAAAAAAHHH!!" Owen was silent for a moment before crying out loud and began a rather lengthy rant. "In the third grade I cheated on my math exam! In fourth grade I stole my uncle Max's toupee and glued it to a goat's bum at the petting zoo! In 5th grade I knocked my younger brother down a flight of stairs and blamed it on my other younger brother! When my mom sent me to summer camp for fat kids I pigged out and the rest of the kids had nothing to eat for an entire week! But the worst thing I ever done, one day I mixed up a blob of fake puke, took it to school and hid the puke in my jacket and then I made a noise like this. Bleeeeeugh! Bleeeugh! Bleeeeugh! And then I dumped it all over-"
"Owen!" Courtney called out, cutting Owen off as everyone was looking at him with an amused expression with Duncan laughing his ass off. "I don't think that's what they meant."
"What other regrets are there?" Owen asked innocently.
"Regrets about the show!" Beth told him between laughs.
"Ahahahaha!" Duncan laughed, wiping a tear away from his eye. "Oh man we gotta pull some pranks together sometime dude,"
"Hahah, you mean I admitted to all that stuff on TV for nothing?" Owen asked with a laugh as he grinned.
"Fraid so big guy," Gwen smirked as she patted Owen on the back.
"Heheh…sorry about that Uncle Max," Owen immediately began apologizing for what he did. "And Johnny and Gavin and, um…mom."
"Let's just move on," Courtney said with a grin as she looked at the tablet again. "Let's see, 00012Squad asks, 'Owen I got a question about Mr. Coconut, whenever you and he aren't together what do you think he does in his spare time?"
"Oh, good question. He doesn't like being away from me most of the time so we're usually together, but there are times when he does want his alone time," Owen began answering as he held up his fruity buddy. "However one time I did catch him reading a book on hypnosis once so I think he's a really avid reader!"
"…" Mr. Coconut let out.
"…" Beth and Courtney were silent, along with everyone else, as they looked at each other in concern before looking back at Owen with the former speaking up. "That's…really interesting…Owen. M-Moving on…WaterDragonMaverick asks 'After you get your wires off, what's the first restaurant you'll likely put out of business by eating everything in sight."
"Whatever restaurants closest to the hospital because I don't wanna wait longer than I have to!" Owen excitedly announced, the big guy having looking forward to eventually removing his wires everyday. "Maybe it'll be a Wendy's! Or Subway! Or Lucky's Steakhouse! Or a Hungry Howies…with extra cheese and toppings on everything…mmmmm…"
Owen quickly began drooling a large amount, leading a puddle on the ground causing everyone sitting nearby to hold up their feet. "Ok, ew!" Gwen let out as she scooted away from Owen. "Clean up on aisle Owen."
"That's about the answer we should have expected…" Beth cringed at the drool before reading the next question. "TheCrescentRider asks 'After the show and your jaw heals, what do you and Izzy plan on doing next?"
This thankfully snapped Owen out of his food daze as he enthusiastically answered the question. "Oh we're gonna make up for lost time when Izzy was mad at me!" Owen began explaining what he and Izzy talked about when they finally got back together. "Before I got the boot we made a whole list of plans on stuff to do together! Going on dates, meeting our families, trying new things together, and of course trying new foods together! I'm just really happy to get to spend more time with Izzy now that we're on good terms again."
"Aaaawww, that's really sweet Owen. And one last question Owen," Beth asked Owen the last usual question. "Who do you want to win the Million?"
"Oh easy, Izzy!" Owen gave the obvious but nice answer of his girlfriend. "I'm so glad we got back together before I got the boot! I'm rooting for you Iz!"
"We're all happy for you Owen, now let's see-" Courtney was about to look at the tablet only for everyone to see the intern walk back in with another card that he was about to hand Owen. "Oh no you don't!"
The intern flinched as Courtney charged at him before taking the card and slugging him in the face, knocking him out. "What's it say this time babe?" Duncan asked with a sigh, already having a good idea about the theme of it.
"Hey Gwen and Duncan I can't help but notice you two seem clo-OH THAT IS IT!" Everyone flinched as Courtney stomped her foot on the ground before looking towards the peanut gallery. "Does anyone have anything I can use as a weapon?"
Everyone shrugged and shook their heads…except for a certain homeschooled boy. "I got his golfclub eh," Ezekiel spoke up as he pulled out a golf club out of nowhere.
"…Why do you have a golf club?" Katie raised a brow at the homeschooled boy.
"…I don't really know," Ezekiel shrugged as he looked over the club. "Just saw it in the corner and thought it was neat."
"Thank you homeschool," Courtney said as she took the club and held it threateningly before walking off. "Beth, close out the show I'm gonna go have a talk with the producers."
"Think I'll join ya babe," Duncan got up and followed his girlfriend off the set.
"O-Oh geez, um, well…that does it for the first Total Drama Action Aftermath!" Beth nervously gave the outro as she looked to the camera. "Things are only gonna heat up from this moment on as the competition for the million dollars goes on! Who will win? Who will be sent home next! Find out next time on Total. Drama. Action!" Once Beth was done she quickly ran after Courtney and Duncan. "Courtney please don't cost us our hosting jobs after day one!"
"Soooooo…what now?" Cody slowly asked as he looked around awkwardly.
"…" Mr. Coconut suggested.
"Mr. Coconut said we should have a spa day!" Owen suggested. Everyone seemed to like that idea as they all got up and walked off the set to head to the hotel spa.
