## Plot

### Cold Open

Red says he misses Orange, along with White saying that Lavender is the only original member of Team AAAAAA!!! left. White questions how Red and his alliance members are still in the game, Red brags about saying they're cooler than he is and that White has been eliminated in the past, implying that White was simply a rejoiner. White doubts Red that he and his alliance are better than him. Red doesn't think his alliance members are going to be eliminated this episode, then he starts the intro.

### Elimination

The prize for elimination are the athlete's own vote count. Blue is safe with 0 votes and Lavender is safe with 1. Lavender brags about how she's safe and gets hit in the stomach with her prize for being annoying, and Invisible telling her to shut up. The bottom two are White and Lime. White is safe with 2 votes, and Lime is out with 3. Red is sad and confused how his alliance member got out. Lime can't hear Invisible because of his headphones and Invisible yells at Lime to get his attention, saying he's out of the game and he is about to fling him to the Scream Box. Before he gets flung, Red grabs on to him and says his final words to his friend, then he gets flung to the scream box. Red starts to cry, and his friends comfort him. White says it's okay because he has his other 2 friends, then he gets interrupted by some rumbling, and the athletes are scared and want to know what could possibly be wrong.

### The Apocalypse

It turns out the drink Orange drank last episode mutated everyone (except Olive, Brown, and some other athletes), and they have broke out of the Scream Box, destroying it. Red, Blue, Green, and White run away to not get killed as the athletes are destroying the world. Meanwhile Lavender is peacefully sitting down, minding her own business until Red calls her name. Then a mutated Cyan approaches her, attempting to kill her but Red carries her to safety and to the rest of the athletes. The 5 athletes are scared, but fortunately White gets a dome shelter and puts it over him and the athletes, and they cheer.

Red hears someone pounding on the shelter, Red lifts it up and Olive and Brown are there, who want to come in and not get killed. Unfortunately for them, a mutated Cyan grabs both of them and murders them. Red is traumatized by what just happened and Blue mentions that he literally kills people for fun. The two are about to argue but then mutated Black and Turquoise break in through the shelter and the 5 athletes quickly escape from there. The athletes run but encounter a cliff. Red asks what they should do and Blue says to jump. Red is scared they will die but Blue tells them it's an object show and that they will survive. White jumps off the cliff, Red falls off, Blue slips and falls, Lavender takes a scared look at the bottom of the cliff and then gets pushed off by Green, and Green falls off after pushing her.

### A New Life

After falling, the athletes end up somewhere new. They hear someone yell at them and White says to use items to help them survive. Red and White build portals with the items to escape. Red, Blue, and Green go into a lava biome portal and White jumps into a portal that teleports you to the moon. Lavender tries to go in the lava biome portal but Red removes the entrance. Lavender is saddened by this, and says something about her never doing something, but is interrupted by an athlete who calls her over. The Athlete says that it looks like Lavender needs help, and Lavender says she does. The athlete gives her wood to build a house for survival.

Red, Blue, and Green are admiring the biome until a fireball is shot at them and almost kills them. The athlete that shot the fireball at them apologizes for almost killing them. Red asks the athlete in the lava biome who he is. Meanwhile, White is walking and then bumps into an athlete, and White asks the athlete who he is. Lavender also asks the athlete that helped her who he is. The 3 unknown athletes say that they are there to host Algicosathlon Mania.
