I didn't find enough infos about how long have been together Chase and Emma before the show, but given how much stuff she revealed about him in the Pole challenge, I feel like at least a year
and it Was also difficult to rank Duncney , as they were constantly on and off,and in the first part of action also wasn't clear whether they were together or not
Tom and Jen technically are based on the writers, But I feel they can very easily be comsodered the producers in-universe
The fact that 2 contestants on the RR had more power than Chris is mind blowing
I think the Fans will finally catch a break, otherwise Oliwia will switch ,causing either Dunia , Ren or herself to get eliminated. But I don't think this will actually happen in ep. 10
As for the favorites, the only explicit targets are Natalia vs Rosa , but narratively speaking, Benji, Ally, Tom, or Gabby could also make sense
I think Lake, Spencer, Fiore and Bruno have all plots that I cant see being over by ep. 10 so abruptly
Natalia has reasons to go, but The show is hint8ng at her being a big character this season, and she has yet to offer i think
Tom and Ally are both nothing characters as of now, but this is exactly why Idk if they can be eliminated in ep. 10 as they just have too little to their character for competing 10 episodes ! Ally tho is very at risk as the idol thing is definitely a plot that will result in either her or Benji go out soon/premerge...
Gabby, Benji and Rosa all have had their fair amount of screentime and development, despite Gabby's seems to be .... turbulent, while I think Rosa, after the whole Anrissa fiasco, has to redeem herself strategy wise, and If she gets eliminated in ep. 10, I can definitely see her rejoining later on, as she will have yet to prove she can compete with the new adaptations of the game
So , to me Ally and Benji are still the most at risk, and Despite the gender ratio still playing a factor to me, my instinct tells me Benji will go , as he had focus these recent episodes , while Ally had nothing to her
Logan Being on grindr is wild!!!
krepes-s4v 's greeting
​
I mean, considering people were accusing them of being racist, over focusing on gaymale characters , having irredeemable villains go far (which are all complaints I disagree with if you ask me)
They answered by having no gay romance if not a hint of Sam and Spencer, having the most diverse cast (10 people from ethniticies different than Caucasian vs 6 caucasian left), and the villains thing they toned it down since Coc?
And you know what ? I like the new seasons , but I also miss having a gay couple to root for, or having a main couple in general, as it always seem to be everything about strategy, I miss having irredeemable villains (which is why I loved Finn as well) while I am actually happy they finally represent more ethniticies other than the average canadian/white basic character, but they were never racist in the 1st place, and the fandom sometimes needs to calm itself down
Anastasia 's whole character in s5 sounded like a response to the massive hate she received in s4
Personally , Finn is the most likely to rejoin to me
Manu also looked to have unfinished business, while Aiden might be a possibility, even if too controversial, he also could interact with everyone , knowing whoever is left
Aubrey might also comeback and get a proper character building , while also giving interesting depths to Oliwia and Sam if they are still there. But Honestly her 1st boot was iconic and I would be fine with her being out
Anastasia is the opposite, as she had a bad elimination, but she would have been gone even without Tom and Gabby voting for her, and her character also seem to have perfectly rounded up
Ernesto to me would feel a rehash of Amelie's comeback , 2nd boot who got a mini-arc and then comes back to support a character ? Idk about that, but it would be cool to have him interact with Ally, I just don't think it's going to happen
so to me
Finn, Manu, Aiden, Ernesto, Aubrey, Anastasia
Eventually I decided to give Ernesto a shot and rank him more likely than the other girls
Listen, I know this might not be useful for a show like this, but in real life if you think about it it's true, if you are trusting you are strong means that you are not insecure and you can approach life more easily
I am very insecure , and at first I thought "this is classic Lake being too ingenuous" but then looking at things from another perspective, I think this is super valid and actually helps me more than it helped Rosa lol
Surprisingly, World tour is the easier one to do! So I'll start with that
Also, there won't be any aftermath! Meaning that Blainley won't rejoin ! And World tour will have only 17 contestants, while Action still remains pretty much the same despite having no aftermath
ep. 1: Duncan quits and Ezekiel is voted off for losing the steak!
ep. 2: Harold is convinced to quit
ep. 3: Bridgette is eliminated like in canon, because og Alejandro
ep. 4: Leshawna is eliminated like in canon
ep. 5: Lindsay loses the tie to Dj!
ep. 6: Dj and Izzy get eliminated like in canon, with Izzy being injured and Dj sabotaged by Alejandro
ep. 7: Duncan rejoins and Noah gets eliminated
ep. 8: Tyler gets eliminated like in canon
ep. 9: Gwen still loses the tie to Courtney
ep. 10: MERGE, There is a slight change, as Owen is paired with the bear and there is no Blainley to reveal how Owen is the Fan Favorite, Still Alejandro would still target him , especially with Courtney and Duncan still being immune, so Owen is out
ep. 11: Sierra wins immunity! This time , there is a major change, as Courtney and Duncan would definitely target each other, and I feel with Sierra being immune and Cody heavily disliking Duncan, he wouldn't vote for Sierra for once!
Cody, Courtney and Alejandro vote against Duncan
Duncan, Heather and Sierra vote against Courtney
This time there is no tie and we have a double elimination!
Ep. 12: Sierra still gets disqualified
ep. 13: Cody loses the 1st part of the challenge , while Heather and Alejandro battle for the win!
New e. order:
No Blainley
17th Ezekiel
16th Harold
15th Bridgette
14th Leshawna
13th Lindsay
12th/11th Izzy and Dj
10th Noah
9th Tyler
8th Gwen
7th Owen
6th/5th Duncan and Courtney
4th Sierra
3rd Cody
2nd/1st Heather OR Alejandro
Now for Total.drama Action, this was hard as I had to keep every rejoiner , as Izzy, Owen and Courtney 's rejoins still would make sense in this timeline even without aftermaths
ep. 1: Geoff and Bridgette out like in canon
ep. 2: E scope out like in canon
ep. 3: Trent out for throwing the challenge like in canon
ep. 4: Gwen also is eliminated same as canon
ep. 5: This is the first major change, as Leshawna's winning reward to me was crucial to her character this season, And as We can't afford having a reward challenge, I made Dj quit here after seeing Leshawna cry!
ep. 6: Now , this is where I made a major change , as I said we can't afford to lose Owen next episode with him eventually rejoining (so basically a non elimination), so I made this challenge the "Masters of Disasters" one, and Have Owen get medevecd here,
the Grips still lost as Harold saved the day, and Since Izzy was targeted by Justin basically just for saying that Justin wasn't cute, let just have let her say that in this episode!
So Owen is medevecd and Izzy is eliminated
ep. 7: Other major changes incoming
Courtney debuts! But she doesn't debut mid challenge, and instead gets introduced at the start of the episode, with all of her advantages exc. , Beth immediately steals her pda to call Brady, until she finds out About Leshawna's trash talking and exposes her mid challenge
This is in fact the canon Sports themed challenge, with Heather still getting the boot!
ep. 8: Merge! Courtney won immunity and Leshawna out like in canon
ep. 9: Courtney won immunity and Justin out
ep. 10: Owen rejoins as Chris said he filed a lawsuit as the show injured him, whivh was half true as Chris wanted him to play the mole like in canon
Lindsay still gets out like in canon
ep. 11: Beth won immunity and Harold out like in canon
ep. 12: Same Courtney and Owen elimination, with Owen being fired
ep. 13: The finale
I think it would either be immediately a jury vote from the start, or it would be the "Mutiny on soundstage" challenge, with either of them winning! Tho I think the jury vote is of course the better choice since is the canon one (and as you can see I wanted to be as loyal as possible to the canon events)
e.order:
15th/14th Geoff and Bridgette
13th Trent
12th Gwen
11th Dj
10th Izzy
9th Heather
8th Leshawna
7th Justin
6th Lindsay
5th Harold
4th/3rd Courtney and Owen
2nd/1st Beth OR Duncan
My reasons for each ranking:
Manu was lowkey annoying with the whole "short stuff" thing and his poor strategic gameplay, but I just slightly dislike him compared to the rest of the cast
Ernesto and Alec especially had decent and good arcs respectively, but not enough to make me care enough for them
Aubrey was a bit annoying but also somewhat entertaining, but I m also glad she was the first boot as it was pretty iconic, still I am neutral on her more than mixed !
Same for Oliwia, She got bonus points for having a great voice, but other than that I feel like I don't care enough for her, as she is also bad strategically, even tho I defend her possible flipping , as it's made clear that her friendship with Ren was a bit one sided , so her realizing that this isn't genuine would be good for both her game and her character!
(Also take note that I value a lot the strategic value of a character!)
Tom is neutral, even tho I am very attached to this s1 favorite, he is really doing Nothing worthy this season, similarly to Ally, but he's way worse strategically, also I didn't like how he flipped on Anastasia , which was the sole reason he is still in the game!
Now for Benji, I liked him a lot this episode! But tbf this is the first episode in which I like him, so I am still mixed on him! Especially as I feel one between him and Ally could go soon and I hope it's not Ally
I liked Gabby so far this season... until the whole Anastasia elimination and how easily she forgave Natalia, also I am mixed on her as I realized that between Ara and Gabby, I found myself liking Ara more, and how effectively she can act too ingenuously at times
Ally , as I said I like her strategic approach to the game, and her character overall , but she is really doing NOTHING, which is why I don't want her to be eliminated, or this time would really feel like a waste of a casting spot
Lake has really grown on me this episode! She finally has sth to do and it doesn't feel forced! Despite me preferring Spencer , I found her rivalry with him very ENTERTAINING, which is sth I didn't associate with Lake in a loooong time!
Nura and Ara's dynamic is super enjoyable to me! But Nura's character can still be too annoying at times, while also be very good at her best, overall I just like her!
Rosa also has grown on me as, once again , her new strategic mindset doesn't feel forced, and she is still a very enjoyable character! But I still hold some grudges for her being super dumb in the Anastasia's elimination
Sam is also a great character so far ! This episode didn't change my opinion on him, despite I found him cringe at times. I am fine with a Sam x Spencer ship honestly , or rivalry , or whatever they do together they are very entertaining! I wish and hope that next episode him and Dunia would be expanded upon, as so far the other favorites had more individual moments
Dunia also I love her sm but I wish she got to do more , and I am warming up on her relationship with Nura, despite not being huge on them
Ara has grown to me a lot this episode! She is showing to be a worthy villain and her dynamic with Nura was super entertaining, as well as her lashing out on Gabby. I m happy she is finally showing her worth after being in the shadows for a bit
Fiore and Spencer were super entertaining and I noticed how those 2 + Natalia seem to be the smartest in the room and to intercept each other's schemes, I think they still are playing too safe but Idc , I prefer Spencer as I think he has a lot of intersting dynamics ! Also Fiore's lashing out to Spencer was also super entertaining
Natalia is also super entertaining and I would definitely root for her, but I wasn't big on her pettyness to Anastasia, despite being a good rivalry overall. I still hope she makes it endgame especially given who is left!
Now , I am not someone who complains and I don't want to, as I think their eliminations were all decently justified (except Anastasia, but she would' ve been gone even without Tom and Gabby's votes), I just feel very unluckyy😭
Finn was super entertaining , as well as Aiden, despite being douchebags, I really liked that in a cast full of kind hearted people, And I liked that for Aiden, it was a decent addition to his character
Anastasia was just super entertaining and rootable this season, It 's a shame she got eliminated, and I really really hope she comes back! But I can see why she wouldn't, as her character feels rounded up perfectly, and while the hate towards her has dropped a bit, the fandom would definitely comeback to accuse her of screenhogging if she came back :(
Evie was a breath of fresh air, but this episode was super neutral to me , and that didn't do her any favors
(I LOVED HER OUTFIT THOO SHE WAS GORGEOUS), especially as her exit line was super moving, while basically everyone else didn't really vibe with that.
She still was super sweet to me and a good presence , also her going to the motel and being with Alec (probably the only ones until the comeback challenge!) after the journey together is PEAK!
Unfortunately after Aiden left, she didn't have any entertaining dynamic left and apart from Oliwia maybe, I didn't see her vibing with the others, still her and Aiden were one of the highlits of the season so far, even tho they s*cked at the game, they made up by being very enjoyable characters, despite throwing all their dynamic under the bus in Aiden's elim.
I am rooting for Ren (more because my other favorites were eliminated lol) , but also because I really think he is the best character atm , especially the Musical made me already root for her, as I love her whole representation ! Despite having a lot of Lgbt characters , Dc never really embraced queer world references as much as with Ren, she feels like a relatable friend to me and speaking of his character, he has so many entertaining dynamics while I also value his strategic worth!
As I needed an even cast with possibly an even gender ration, I had to remove B from this season, as he anyway was the most forgettable character and "sounded" like a last minute addiction to the cast!
team FANS🎀: Staci, Dakota, Sam, Dawn, Annemaria, Brick, Jo, Mike, Zoey, Cameron, Lightning, Scott
team FAVORITES🏆: Owen, Gwen, Heather, Duncan, Courtney, Alejandro, Cody, Sierra, Leshawna, Harold, Lindsay, Dj
ep. 1: Team Fans immediately lost, being completely a mess of a Team

In this double elim.
Dakota gets votedout in a 9-2 to Annemaria, with Only Sam voting with her
Sierra gets voted out in a 10-2 to Gwen, with only Courtney voting with her
Sam tries to give Dakota his number, but he fails, while Sierra tries to apologize to Cody, but he doesn't even look at her
The twist is that both Sierra and Dakota will switch teams!
So that finally Sierra can play the game as a fan , while Dakota can be a diva amongst the Favorites !
ep. 3: Team Fans lost once again as Scott threw the challenge
Lindsay and Heather, who already reconciled in ep.1, get approached by Dakota, and Heather proposes an alliance , which Alejandro gets worried about , despite still gravitating towards Heather

Harold, wanting to focus the target on Alejandro, plans to make Cody and Duncan work together despite Cody especially hating Duncan
Leshawna and Harold confront about their role as mediators and plan to form a big loyal alliance to navigate the game in relax!

Jo formed a pact with Lightning and Brick to keep each other safe to keep the team strong! But she of course plans to backstab them...
Scott threw the challenge, as with Dakota and Cody on the other team, he thought he could put the blame on either Sam or Sierra!

Sierra and Jo also develop a rivalry for the way Jo was treating her teammates , Cameron especially
Mike , Zoey and Annemaria get all their canon plots, Cameron and Mike also get their canon Mpd/friendship/therapy bond sessions 🩷
Sam was a big liability in the challenge, and got targetd by Lightning like in canon

In a super close 7-5....
Courtney gets voted by Dj, Owen, Duncan, Harold and Cody, who eventually was convinced by Harold to get over Gwen and over his grudge against Duncan ,and a nice way to kickstart that would be supporting him in the vote
Duncan gets voted by Courtney, Heather, Lindsay, Dakota, Alejandro and... GWEN and Leshawna
Gwen told Duncan she still wants to be with him, but his presence in the game isn't allowing her to focus on the game and her friends
Duncan tells her he respects her a lot and they can still be together!
Courtney is a bit schocked by Gwen's move, but keeps holding the grudge against her

ep. 6: Team Fans lost
Lindsay and Dakota for once carried in the fashion themed challenge, while Dawn almost made the team win , only to see Scott throw the challenge for the team
Dakota and Lindsay see that Heather is happy that Alejandro got to stay , and they begged her to let him join their alliance, which she accepts ONLY because they asked her to
Despite last vote, Leshawna doesn't want to hold a grudge at Gwen , but she clearly sees Courtney being a bad influence for her
Dj is mad and sad to have lost his closest allies in Duncan and Owen , and gets mocked by Courtney and Alejandro because of that, telling them that they are the 2 most evil people he ever met!
he decides it's time to play strategic, but doesn't align with either side, until either Courtney or Alejandro get eliminated/removed from their alliances
Scott pulled the same trick with Dawn, he initially planed to blame Brick for the stealing, but themln switched his target to Dawn, who was already seen as "creepy" by multiple people on her team
Even Annemaria was so mad that put her rivalry with Zoey aside just to vote Dawn off

Scott decided it was time to get rid of her and threw the challenge in order to make it look like Sierra caused it
Dj says he is happy to work with Heather, as he has grown to respect her and should have trusted her in s3 when she warned him about Alejandro! Heather also says she values this "new Dj "more than Dakota as an ally , while almost on par with Lindsay , who is now genuinely friends with
Lindsay tho still fears Heather manipulating her, and keeps the idol a secret only between her and Dakota

With So many liabilities on the team, such as Dakota and Cody, they were deemed as the main targets
But even then, Heather and Dj knew Dakota wouldn't win a tie breaker even against Cody!
Their plan was to train Dakota, but they failed at that, so plan b) get either Cody or Harold to flip, but both of them, despite being friends with Heather, say they still don't trust working with her , but they can agree on not voting each other off!

ep. 11: The Favorites lost again!
Scott and Alejandro find out about Mike's mpd from Cameron and plans to blackmail the both of them
Leshawna and Gwen make up eventually , and Gwen realizes she hadn't really locked in since Duncan was gone, so they have to work Dj on flipping to their side
Gwen also thinks aligning with Leshawna and Harold would make them more of a shield between the 2 of them!
Lindsay accidentally tells Heather about the idol, telling her it's practically unuseful...
Dj , learning to play the game, is convinced to flip as he was anyway a 4th wheel on Heather alliance, but he is still so kind and so respectful to Heather that he tells her about him switching sides
She is okay with that, but suggests him to vote for Dakota, with the excuse of being a liability for the team!
She hides the infos about the idol, as she also fears this new strategic Dj, and fears he might get Lindsay's trust over her
At elimination, In a 4-3 to Harold....

Leshawna and Harold (and Gwen) decide to form the supermega alliance they wanted to create, and they take advantage of their bonds with Cameron and Zoey
This is the same canon elimination as Grand Chef's auto, so Scott and Mike have the same plot
Scott wins immunity! And the solo vote
As Mike already told Zoey about his Mpd and she loves him anyway, He is no longer useful to him and gets eliminated
Zoey is super mad and exposes Scott having the idol!
13th MIKE🎀
ep. 13: It's the comeback challenge!
Duncan is still brought back, but sits out the challenge, with Gwen sitting out to spend more time with him, raising an eyebrow from Courtney who still hadn't forgive neither of them
Pairs for the challenge
Staci and Scott, they performed super bad
Sam and Harold, they bonded , but performed bad
Owen and Dj, they had fun and performed mediocre
Dawn and Gwen, they bonded and were almost rejoiners , but Gwen ultimately slowed down to let Courtney rejoin!
Brick and Jo, Despite Brick being happy to be paired with Jo, she instead sabotaged him as she didn't want him to rejoin!
Annemaria and Alejandro , They won the challenge, as Annemaria was swooning over Alejandro, already forgetting Vito, Alejandro put a lot of effort in the challenge , as he desperately needed some allies, as Heather and Lindsay were closer than him
Courtney and Leshawna , they came in a close 2nd And also got to rejoin the competition! Leshawna tells Courtney that it was Heather who manipulated her into voting her off. Coirtney fakes to believe it , but is still mad at Leshawna !
Sierra and Cameron, they had fun in the challenge
Cody and Lightning (my favorite gay crackship lol, i just wanted to have them interact someway somehow)
Dakota and Lindsay, they had fun in the challenge, and talked about the idol, Dakota and Lindsay for a sec. question Whether Heather was behind her elim. But they don't connect the votes , as Heather voted with them
Mike and Zoey, they cleared things up after last episode and officiallized their relationship !
Courtney and Anne Maria got to rejoin, while Leshawna and Alejandro won immunity for the next episode!
ep. 14: Jo won immunity !
Jo, Annemaria, Courtney, Alejandro and Leshawna are immune!

Leshawna , Harold, Gwen, Cameron, Zoey and Dj officalize their alliance
Gwen try to approach Courtney but she says she didn't like how she still doesn't own up the cheating and Gwen says she ll think about it...
Courtney gets instead approached by Scott and they make an alliance!
Everybody is targeting Scott tho, not forgetting about the most recent events, and him having the idol
At elimination,
Scott is voted by Zoey, Cameron, Leshawna, Harold, Dj and Gwen
Gwen is voted by Heather, Lindsay and Alejandro
as Heather and Alejandro wanted to "intercept" Scott's idol, and targeted Gwen for being the glue of the other alliance! While also being one Lindsay would agree to vote for
Heather is voted by Annemaria (who was jealous of her), Courtney (who wanted to avenge her last elimination), Scott (who wanted to orchestrate THIS elimination)
Jo and Lightning, despite being allies, casually split their votes, with Jo voting against Heather, while Lightning voting for Gwen for disliking him
In a 6-4-4......
Scott plays his idol and people expected a tie breaker...
but Chris called it a double elimination!
Alejandro is impressed by Scott's move , but swears to avenge Heather!

14)/13) HEATHER🏆 and GWEN🏆
Scott now has even more of a target, while Courtney is super grateful to him !
ep. 15: Alejandro won immunity
As He helped annemaria win the rejoin comp., he used her to win the challenge while manipulating her to paint a target on her back by sabotaging the others.
Realizing what she did and how she was played,, A.maria felt humiliated , everyone distanced from her , with only Leshawna reaching out to her telling her she's been there before
Courtney and Scott bond even more over their shared hatred over Zoey
Lindsay , realizes that Heather was a genuine friend as she didn't even tell anyone about the idol, and now no one knows about it! So Lindsay can plan to make her move....
Cameron and Harold bonded , while Leshawna and Zoey bonded as well! Dj was instead busy trying to get Lindsay's trust over Alejandro!
Scott tries to devise a plan to eliminate Zoey by saving Anne Maria, but fails as Alejandro was targeting her as she was no longer useful to him, and he trusted only Heather
Jo and Lightning tho voted with Scottney, only to find themselves outvoted in a 7-5 to Zoey....
Annemaria f*cks everyone off , except for Leshawna and Cameron
Zoey instead tells Scott that it's not over and he may have breathe now , but he is still on her radar
12th ANNEMARIA🎀
ep. 16: Harold won immunity
He told Cameron he wanted to impress Leshawna and did indeed won immunity! Cameron was left impressed and now wants to become a challenge beast!
He has the bad idea of asking for advices to Jo (as Harold is busy spending time with Leshawna), who accepts to train him only to eventually manipulate him
Alejandro was mad at Scott for almost having his plan to eliminate Annemaria fail, and he targets him also becuse of Heather's elimination
Despite Zoey and Cameron being still mad at Scott, Dj, Harold and Leshawna were still bitter at Alejandro for the events of Wt + knowing he was a bigger threat!

10th JO🎀
ep. 18: Huge Aftermath with everyone that was eliminated
Cody and Sierra reveal they are just friends but Cody tells they might be dating someday, leaving her gagged
Alejandro and Heather also clearly like each other, but still doesn't tell whether they are dating or not
Gwen and Duncan are still a thing, even tho Gwen often argues with him about her intentions to make amends with Courtney
Sam and Dakota are happily together , while Dawn and Mike and basically everyone else show to be mad at Scott
Mike gets a lot of focus for being a central character of the season, While Jo is still bitter about her elimination and doesn't talk much
ep. 19: Dj and Cameron won immunity!
While they both got to bond in the challenge , Dj won the 1st part thanks to his cooking skills
while Cameron still "backstabbed" Lightning to win immunity, causing him to break their friendship off and Dj to step in in order to protect Cameron from eventual bullying from Lightning
During the challenge also , Courtney literally goes to the extent of bullying Zoey, pushing her to edge and becoming Commando Zoey. Courtney's behaviour was enabled by Scott, but people were still seeing her as the more threatening one!

Chris announces that there will be a jury vote at Final 3!
ep. 20: Challenge in Pairs
Lindsay can't hold her secret of the idol anymore and decides to tell that to Dj!
Everyone get to choose their partners for the challenge!
Harold and Leshawna of course choose each no longer even hiding it from the others, but they also talked strategy during the challenge
Lindsay chose to work with Dj and they started to talk what they can do with the idol, but Lindsay tells him she has a dream move to make !
Cameron chose to work with Zoey to help her go back to normal, but they end up arguing as Cameron was dragging them down in the challenge
Scott and Lightning were not chosen by anyone , but this worked to their advantage, as they won the challenge thanks to Lightning's strength and Scott's dirty Tricks!
The big alliance was forced to turn on each other. with Zoey being the clear target
Leshawna doesn't want to vote her off , but Harold tells her it's the only option!
Cameron tho still wants to save her , and Dj approached him telling him the only other option was to break the Lesharold duo , but him and Lindsay prefer to vote Harold, despite Cameron being super attached to him as well
At elimination
Cameron is voted by Lightning and Scott, as Lightning was still mad at him and Cameron had to support him !
Zoey is voted by Leshawna and Harold for being a threat and for her attitude
Harold is voted by Dj, Lindsay, Cameron and Zoey
As it was clear that him and Leshawna were a couple and Leshawna had more friends!
In a 4-2-2 to Cameron and Zoey....
Harold was shockingly eliminated, Leshawna while being shocked understands it , as it was the reason they kept their relationship a secret in the early episodes
8th HAROLD🏆
he wishes Leshawna and also Cameron good luck ftw
ep. 21: Commando Zoey won immunity
While Cameron expected them to be friends again after saving her last vote, Zoey was still a lone wolf and didn't let anyone approach her
Scott tries to put Dj, Lindsay and Leshawna against the other with the excuse of the jury vote, with only Dj really willing to hear him out , only to tell him off for how evil he acted all season!
Despite everything, Scott was still heavily disliked by the others , and this is where he gets his canon elimination, with Chris also getting revenge exc. (Without the Fang karma i guess?)
Scott gets voted off in a 5-1-1 to Dj and Cameron (voted by Lightning)
And surprisingly we get our main antagonist out 4 episodes before the finale!
Lightning will take over I guess
ep. 22: Lightning wins his 1st alone immunity and 2nd immunity of the season!
Despite Lindsay and Dj trying to make him lose, he pulled thorugh and won immunity!
Chris also revealed that Lightning won the solo vote ....
Cameron and Leshawna on the other hand spent the whole challenge on having Zoey come back to her normal state which they succeeded , Zoey thanked especially Cameron !
The alliance is once again forced to turn on each other, but Chris reveals that Lightning has got a solo vote, and he uses it on Zoey, still thinking she was Commando Zoey and finding her the biggest threat
Zoey gets eliminated and wishes the others good luck, except for Lightning!
Dj gets relieved , but Leshawna realizes him and Lindsay are her bigger threat in a jury vote
6th ZOEY🎀
ep. 23: Lightning won his 3rd immunity of the season
Once again, the challenge was just too physical for the others to catch up , as it was a war themed challenge involving physical duels
Leshawna convinced Dj to unlock his true potential, as he was the only one able to keep up with Lightning , but Lightning still won , while Dj got worried as he almost got other animals to get hurt
Lindsay accidentally tells everyone she has the idol, only to realize it was a smart move as no one would vote for her, Dj asks her what move she wants to make! She whispers it to him and he is a bit disappointed, but doesn't judge
Cameron feared he might have been eliminated, but Dj and Leshawna actually go after each other
In a close 2-2-1 vote....
Dj voted for Leshawna as despite their big friendship, she was his biggest threat in a jury vote
Leshawna votes for Dj for the same reason
Cameron votes for Leshawna, as he was closer to Dj
Lightning votes for Dj , as they were kind of in a rivalry since after Dj took Cameron's defenses
Lindsay, not wanting to take sides, voted for herself, causing a tie breaker
In the tie breaker, the contestants were forced to use fake weapons against each other , themed with the challenge
Dj doesn't feel confident about that, as his moma raised him with different values, so he lets Leshawna defeats him and win the tie , with Leshawna promising she will help him if she wins!
5th DJ🏆, lost tie breaker
I wanted to give Dj and most of the team victory icons the great runs they deserved! While him being more strategic here, and finally learning to play the game (let's not forget that he was a later addiction and had no clue about how the game worked), I wanted to give him more depth than the show ever did
ep. 24: Lightning won his 4th immunity straight and ensures himself a place in the finals!
Izzy made a cameo in the challenge, causing Cameron and Leshawna to bond over their hatred towards Izzy
Leshawna and Cameron were left alone to face Lightning, as Lindsay could finally play her Majestic Move
she tells Chris her dream has always been to be able to relax and chill on the island on herself and asks Chris if she can use the idol to skip the challenge!
Chris allows her to with everyone being perplexed
Chris also reveals that today's challenge was technically in pairs , so Lindsay and Lightning won the immunity and the possibility to vote someone off!
Leshawna was confident to make it to the finale , as Lightning hated Cameron, while Lindsay was closer to her
Lindsay and Lightning aren't as dumb as they look tho, and they both realize Leshawna is an immense jury threat, causing her to be eliminated
Leshawna is a bit salty at Lindsay, but understands that and is also kind of proud of her, wishing her the win!
ep. 25: The jury panel
Lightning, despite the disadvantage given to him by Cameron and Lindsay, still won the challenge and made it to the finale. Everyone is upset at his ego constantly growing each immunity he won and him becoming more and more of a bully especially towards Cameron!
This jury vote is very weird as Cameron and Lindsay have completely opposite approaches to it, woth Cameron being more talkative and well spoken, while Lindsay giving non-sense answers at points, only to remind everyone how she played a great game and never received a single vote!!
Cameron on the other hand insisted on his growth , the friends he made and the people he helped
Eventually the jurors have to vote
Votes against Cameron: Heather, Alejandro, Scott, Dj, Leshawna
Votes against Lindsay: Mike, Gwen, Annemaria,Jo Courtney, Harold, Zoey
Jo voted against Lindsay as she grew to respect Cameron and doesn't like Lindsay's dumb attitude
Courtney voted against Lindsay for the same reason, while the others were just closer to Cameron
Dj and Leshawna eventually still sided with Lindsay respecting her growth so much , while honestly not believing Cameron could possibly defeat Lightning in a physical challenge
Lindsay is not mad of course and is happy to have had such a great run!
3rd) LINDSAY 🏆, lost jury vote
Now Cameron has to face the challenge beast Lightning all by himself , and he is really scared by him!
Ep. 26: The finale is the same as canon,
with Cameron most likely winning depending by each country!
He splits the money with MOST of the cast , as he is really generous I can see him honestly splitting the money with 23 people , but he also decides to give it more to Dj as a special thank you for his help, and as his moma showed to be the one who needed the most!
I hope you enjoyed the season ! I already posted it yesterday while mistakenly deleting it, it got me quite a lot to rewrite everything 😅🩷
As you may have noticed, I tried to make this season work as much as possible as a bridge for All stars, with some plots being anticipated here , like Gwuncan's character development, Gwortney or Scottney or even Aleheather, or Sierra 's heroic arc to justify her being in the heroes team!
Idk the robot thing with Alejandro would work here but maybe he gets injured in this season's finale as well with Scott lol? Also Lindsay being tired of competing by the time of all stars would make more sense(?)

This is harder to determine, but I feel everything points towards Ally or Benji be eliminated, and I think it will be Ally
If we look at the favorites who have already been eliminated, Alec and Anastasia both were on the verge of a redemption arc/satisfying conclusion when they were eliminated in their previous seasons, and both had a lot of screentime to build their redemption, that DID work actually!
Aiden didn't need any redemption tho, while just needing more depth to his characterz which he got, even if we got to see his more flawed side, his cocky/arrogant and strategically dumb side, it did work and he got a lot of screentime!
Ally on the other hand, she both already had a redemption in s3, while just needing to show that she plays not caring about others think, which she is showing she is already improved by being lock in (but even in Alls tars, she was more locked in than her number 1 ally Hunter, so that sound like a rehash) , while also needing some more depth to her character, as she was glued to being Jake's pokemon rival
Here tho, is she really showing depth? She has done NOTHING in 8 eps. if not bonding with Benji, and at the same time it's hard to justify her as a boot as she got just too little material to justify her even making this far!
Benji would be a good choice narratively, but his character would resent a lot from such a poor run.
Gabby/Tom would be another possible choice, while Evie might also go because she got character development
But I don't think the Fans will lose as it would be fun to see them start winning again after Aiden got the boot, I think we will probably see at least other 2 favorites eliminated! With 1 of them possibly being a shocker and later rejoining the game!
Sleepaway camp rules , I literally can't get it off my head !
Evie's plan is clear: she wants to overtake the gays in the thumbnails and knows the only way is to start showing her most hidden skills!!lol
It would make more sense than what they are actually (not) doing rn
it would make for great TV!
