The Legend of Harambe

**The Legend of Harambe** is the third episode of *Total Drama Starlight Savanna*.

The two teams compete in a challenge to take a picture of or with Harambe and bring it back to Kassondra. Throughout the day, team members bond with one another creating friendships, rivalries, even feelings of worry and suspicion. A few contestants even create the first alliance of the season. One team gets along well while the other doesn't. During this, one contestant's plan for this challenge backfires and with that and their over*all uselessness on this team, the team eliminates them.*

## Plot

    The episode starts with Greg and Vince having a talk in Hut 1 with Vince questioning why they are moved into huts with teir teammates and of the same gender. Greg guessed to build comradely but questions why Vince asks this with him replying he wants to see some babes and wants to sleep with them compared to dudes. Greg doesn't believe Vince thinks it could happen but then questions the entire conversation. Vince said Greg needs to get laid and then excuses to go to the bathroom. As he leaves he wakes up Xavier annoying him and questions why. Greg doesn't know and apologizes saying Vince is a bit of stickler and says he means well though. Greg also said he hopes there's no hard feelings about the sabotage either. Xavier says it's alright since it's a game afterall but then comments Greg is rather sensitive for a jock. When Greg gets confused, Danny chimes in saying he is not a dick like most stereotypical jocks but Greg denies and says he's no softie. After that Danny asks if they knew where Landovan went but with Xavier having no clue, Danny decides to head out and look for him. In the confessional, Greg said he is not a softie and thinks Xavier is just being overly analytical thinking he knows him when its only been two days. Xavier says he's unsure about his team but likes the guys for the most part.

Meanwhile, Landovan is currently reciting and thinking about his song when Danny goes up to him asking if he's writing a song. Landovan said he couldn't getting any sleep last night thinking the expierence was so surreal making him want to write about it. Danny asks if he was gonna play it and Landovan said he would but wouldn't want to end up like Angela. Danny agrees but says he would like to hear it whenever he finishes with Landovan appreciating it. In the confessional, he found Danny to be a chill dude seeing himself working with him.

     Meanwhile, as Georgia was sleeping Casey was talking about her expierences of news spreading around her small town to Wendelle. Wendelle says she couldn't imagine it but she said it sounds like Casey has a great attitude. In the confessional, Casey says Wendelle is super nice and really sweet and it was hard metting nice people growing basically in the ghetto. Wendelle says Casey is nice but the girl talks a lot needing a muzzle at some point. Wendelle then heads to breakfast asking if Casey would want to join and Casey said yes after she grabs something from her bag. As Wendelle departs and Casey heads over to her bag, Georgia starts to sleeptalk about coming after Dollface next laughing about it too. When Casey was concerned, Georgia woke up and immediately said good morning to her but said the wrong name. In the confessional, Casey thought the situation was odd wondering what Georgia was dreaming about. Gerogia hoped she wasn't sleep talking since she does that sometimes. She said it was time to start thinking on who to eliminate now being on a team planning to scout people out at breakfast.

     In the mess hall, people were getting breakfast and sitting down with their team socializing. Where the Fighting Spirits were sitting, Vince asked if anyone on the team got anything from the tiki idol last night saying he got nothing. Everyone said they had nothing but when Vince asked Megan she said she had nothing. In the confessional, she said theres no way any of them are gonna know she has immunity knowing they already want her gone. But she says she can't leave yet not wanting to go back home dealing with certain mess there. Casey then said they were all in the clear since no one got any penalties. Greg then made a toast to the today's challenge saying they were the Fighting Spirits and they should embody it and give it their all today. Everyone else toasted too it.

While the Spirits were toasting, where the Barbaric Bones were sitting, Jake took notice that they were bonding nicely. Violet said they could bond too by getting to know each other better saying a team that knows each other well is a team that wins together. Octavio saw no point in it saying they would eventually go home and never see each other again with Cosmo saying rats were more enjoyable than him. Fran noticed Octavio was being pessimistic and asked if he was okay with him saying she wouldn't get it. In the confessional, Fran thinks Octavio had a troubled upbringing with him having a negative presence on the team and hoped he will open up eventually. Octavio says everyone always goes around smiling and having high hopes for the future but with their life ending at any second why bother with it. Jackie asked if anyone was exicted for this challenge. Aubrey said she was but Jackie then said anyone but Aubrey hurting her. Brendan said he was and also confident with picking a solid team. Jake says Brendan won't regret it but Ron says he's hoping to have more individual based challenges to smell wild flowers almost saying weed. China told him she already knew he smoked weed to his relief. Kassondra then came and announced to meet outside for their first team challenge.

Kassondra congratulated them on making Day 2 and said before they can start their challenge she needs to tell them a story. Vince thought it was practicing for their kid they were having one day making Kassondra threatening him to disqualify him. Kassondra said legends has it that the famous gorilla Harambe never actually died but got released into the wild, infact this savanna to everyone's shock. The challenge today is to simply find Harambe with Kassondra secretly hiding that she has already seen footage of him but wanted to keep it a secret to keep the story going. The first team to take a picture of or with Harambe and bring it back wins thinking it wasn't logical to bring the gorilla back itself. She then gave cameras officially starting the challenge.

     In the confessional, Brendan seemed confused taking a picture of a dead gorilla thinking the producers took Ron's weed. Aubrey said she didn't care if Jackie was her friend but didn't want her to be mad at her forever thinking if she finds Harambe and wins it for her, Jackie would lighten up. Megan has immunity not caring about the challenge wanting to let the other contestants struggle to find the beast taking her time to catch up. The Barabaric Bones then had a team meeting with Cosmo asking if Brendan had any plans as captain. In the confessional, Brendan thought picking the team doesn't automatically qualify him as the leader and he maybe didn't want to lead. Brendan suggests to the team to look for some clues with Cosmo making fun of him saying if they should talk to the monkeys to ask where he is. Aubrey thought it wasn't a bad idea and suggested to split up 2 thinking 2 groups would be better than 1. Jackie called not being in her group and China while liking the idea said they only had 1 camera. Jake suggested to grab bananas from the mess hall to lure him in. Violet agreed wanting to volunteer to go to the mess hall to get some asking Fran and Octavio if they would want to join her. Octavio wanted to pass but Fran said both of them will go. Brendan agreed and said while they go get bananas they should wait out here and set up a trap hoping the plan works. Cosmo said not to run in the gorilla on their way. Jake thought he was referring to Harambe and was confused but Cosmo was actually referring to Chefette.

     Meanwhile, the Fighting Spirits were out looking for the gorilla with Vince asking if they found it yet. Casey was sarcastic saying he was mature but Vince took it as a compliment irritating Casey with his little laugh grossing her out. Danny said they didn't need to continue the conversation and asked if anyone wanted to ask Megan why she wasn't keeping up. Wendelle didn't know saying she felt bad but at the same time felt Megan was mean and Landovan chimed in saying they didn't need for this saying they can find Harambe either way. Georgia thought he was finding a bae with Landovan dumbfounded at that response. Xavier said he doesn't mean to slow them down but said they should attack this challenge with a gameplan. Greg asked if he had any ideas with everyone turning their attention to Xavier. Xavier said he's been thinking on his little walk here saying there's not a lot of trees in the savanna knowing gorillas like to hang around a lot of trees. Thus, he asked if there was a location with an abundance of trees with Danny complimenting him and Casey mentioning she saw a group of tall objects in the distance in the morning south of the mess hall. Georgia pretended to be confused on the name of the mess hall with Vince wondering if they would prefer to listen to that over his jokes. With that, Xavier told Casey to lead the way.

     Meanwhile, Jake, Violet, Octavio, and Fran were in the mess hall with Violet excited they were sneaking in Chefette's kitchen to grab some bananas. Fran but agreed but told her they had to keep quiet in order to not get caught. Jake couldn't believe he was robbing some banannas including a fact of the first ever bank robbery making Octavio said his insides cry. Fran then told Jake to sneak in and while he was in the kitchen looking for the bannas, Fran asked Octavio why he was so blue with him saying she wouldn't get it with Fran saying back she does not believe him. Octavio gave up and said he didn't get the point of pretending everything is great and didn't believe he was here for a reason, nor some higher person put him on this planet for a reason, and thought it was all crap. He said he just didn't get the point of doing anything is when death is inevitable. In the confessional, Fran they were all deep rooted issues unprepared for this. Fran told Octavio that first off whether or not Octavio believed in any religion, it doesn't justify any thought he didn't belong on the planet saying everyone does, having a purpose, here to help each other. Octavio said no and when Fran was confused, just as Octavio was about to reply back, Jake said he got the bananas. Violet was happy telling Jake to go girl but said her saying "you go guy" didn't seem right thinking it wasn't a phrase ever used but it was a first time for everything. Before she said more, Octavio told her to shut up with Fran agreeing.

Meanwhile, the Fighting Spirits were all in the forests with Casey not knowing what to do now. Greg suggested to look for him and Danny said they all should circle around the forest and if anyone sees the gorilla, the camera should be thrown to them pretending to confuse Georgia not knowing Harambe was a boy. Landovan agreed with Danny's plan but then Megan showed up with Georgia where she has been with all of them missing her. Megan said she was tired and Wendelle told her they all were but before she could say anything else, Megan told her not to call her sweetie confusing Wendelle. Xavier then heard rustling coming from the trees with Vince being excited heading over to the trees calling for Harambe when a monkey jumped on his head. It angered Vince wanting to get it off with Greg saying it was the wrong ape. Vince said he knew that already but then something went past them quickly. Casey realized it was Harambe telling everyone to after him and telling Greg to get the camera out with Greg on it.

     The Barbaric Bones were still where they were with Jake currently setting up the trap with bananas. With everything set, Brendan gave the camera to Jake wanting him to do the honors making Jake grateful for it feeling he was doing so well. Violet wondered what to do now with so many options but Cosmo quickly told her to shut up and when Ron was about to ask something, China said nobody wanted to smoke with him. But Ron wasn't even gonna ask that in the first place and said if anyone is up to sabotage the other team. With Aubrey confused on it, Jackie didn't want to wanting to win fair and sqaure thinking those wins are the best making Ron feel like nobody is up for fun. As Octavio was about to say something, Cosmo cut him up saying he didn't want to hear anything more from him but Octavio persisted. Fran said they will talk later and just as she was about to say something else, Harambe came by knocking Jake down and destroying the camera and traps. Brendan was sad about the camera with China and Jackie mad that Jake's plan failed but Jake said that it wasn't his fault when nobody said anything.

     As Octavio quickly left the scene, Greg and Casey were quickly following behind. Greg told Casey to push him and Casey agreed to do it. She pushed him giving the moment to capture a picture of Harambe successfully. Greg congraluated Casey but immediately took it back saying he knew he could do it wanting to show Kassondra now. All the Fighting Spirits were now at Kassondra and she confirmed that it was a picture of Harambe giving the Fighting Spirits the win and congratulated them on their first actual win making the team cheer with the Barbaric Bones being dissapointed. Kassondra said she will see the Barbaric Bones at the elimination ceremony tonight and said to grab some dinner and rest up having decisions to make.

In the confessional, Brendan was dissapointed they lost feeling he was a candidate to go home being the one to pick the team, Jake was sad when things were once looking up to him, Jackie was angry that she lost mad at the plan. Meanwhile, Greg said Xavier wasn't bad after all helping the team win with Casey being cool too seeing the entire team do great today. Georgia said she had nothing to do with anything today not having the opportunity too. But she thought it was good in a way thinking she could continue to scout out for potential targets. Megan said this was easy having another day guaranteed to her. Ron felt his team had the wrong ideal to him and hoped it doesn't lead to them wanting to vote him out.

Back at the mess hall, Greg said to Brendan and Vince that he's been thinking and said that all 3 of them had something to offer in terms of skills. He said he knew Brendan was on the other team but suggested to form an alliance with all of 3 them and call each other "The Bro Squad." Vince liked it and was down and Brendan was down finding it beneficial to have allies on the other team but hoped he would survive this elimination ceremony. Greg was pleased and said Brendan was fine and said now that they were a squad, they could talk about potential targets on each team and asks who Brendan thinks was on the block for tonight. Brendan said himself for picking the team, Jake for flopping in the challenge, and Octavio for having a negative presence and not doing much to help. Vince said he had easy competition and adviced him to talk to his team to persuade them to  vote one of them out. Brendan was unsure but Greg agreed and said how else would he know if all 3 of them are in the same position. Brendan said he was right and said he will talk to his team about it.

     While Ron and Wendelle were sitting down Jackie was running around trying to find one of the immunity idols desparately not having any time in the challenge and not thinking it was that hard to find. Ron asked if Wendelle wanted a cigarette but Wendelle declined and said she wanted to talk to him wanting to help him since she thought smoking was not good for him. Ron declinded saying it helps him and makes him relaxed when having high anxiety. Wendelle said there were other alternatives to smoking and asked what if his parents found out but Ron says his dad was a drug addict and his mom works all the time. Wendelle was sorry and said if he needs anything she's always here but Ron said he probably will not talk about it and went to smoke before the elimination ceremony but thanked her as he left. Neither realized Georgia though watched the whole conversation. In the confessional, Wendelle said the conversation was sad being so concerned with Ron not wanting him to destroy his life like that. Georgia thought it was interesting seeing Wendelle was getting close with someone on the other team.

Kassondra welcomed the Barbaric Bones to the Elimination Ceremony and readdressed the new twist to them of the tiki idols. The tiki idols were safe items each elimination ceremony and there is 1 out of 3 chance it either has a reward, penalty, or nothing on it. She said they will see what such rewards and penalties there are if they get one. With that, she said it was time to vote in the confessional one by one giving the go to make their moves.

Voting confessionals were made. Brendan apologzied to the person he was voting for being the only one to blame for their lost today. China thought they didn't work well as a team today and in the end she had to choose one of the boys to go home and made her decision. Jake felt awful blowing the challenge and knew he was getting too confident about it so he voted Brendan for picking a team that didn't cooperate. Fran said even though Octavio is useless right now with his current attitude, she can't bring it to eliminate him wanting to work on him. Octavio didn't know and voted who he was told by Fran. Violet thought it sucks thinking the person she voted for was her closest friend but she said she will get over it with plenty of other friends to make saying the person shouldn't have flopped hard. Cosmo was having trouble who to vote for having so many options. Aubrey apologized to the person she was voting for but said she didn't see them to be useful for the team in the future. Jackie voted Jake for giving the team a stupid plan ready for him to get out. Ron liked the person he voted for but said friendliness doesn't go very far in this competition.

Kassondra said she received everyone's vote and gave tiki idols to those who were safe. Jackie, Cosmo, Octavio, Fran, China, Ron, Violet, and Aubrey were given idols to become safe leaving the bottom 2 to be Brendan and Jake.  Kassondra announced she had one last idol left and in a vote of 9-1, Jake was eliminated having 9 votes against him giving Brendan the last tiki idol. Jake was dissapointed but said he knew he wasn't gonna last long. He said he doesn't blame anyone voting him out and wishes good luck to everyone. In the confessional, China felt bad thinking he was nice but it sucked that he was a flop.

     Jake was led into the Safari of Shame with Kassondra asking if he was ready to take his ride. Jake guessed he was wanting to get out of the savanna. Thus, Kassondra sent him off with the jeep taking him in the distance.

Harambe is seen in the night wandering around the savanna. It seems to be that it is not the last time seeing Harambe.
