Pain Has To Be Gained

**The newly gender-divided teams are officially dissolved, and two previously eliminated campers are back in the game. The remaining campers will have to fend for themselves unless they have an alliance. The campers are then put through an excruciating torture challenge, with individual immunity on the line for the first time. Someone wins the challenge, immunity, and an awesome prize, while somebody else is voted off.**

## Plot

The episode begins with the female campers relaxing by the shore of the lake, however despite losing the awesome reward to the boys during the previous challenge, there isn't any visible hatred or animosity towards one another. Jada then asks Ellis if she wants some more sunscreen but Ellis waves it away and says she wants to work on her tan. Sammie then notices a bee that lands on Jada, whose oblivious to it, and smacks it off, but only manages to make it fly away and hits Jada on the nose by accident. Jada stands up and insults Sammie, however her insults are covered by the yacht's horn, causing Jada to turn around in disgust knowing that the boys are home from their spa reward. It's then seen the returning male campers are partying on the yacht and drink some soda. The girls eventually start looking a bit jealous as they remembered that the boys went to the five-star spa resort. The boys exit the yacht, and start talking about the luxuries of the yacht and the resort, making the girls even more envious.

Wanting to be nice, Lucas offers the girls a plate of chocolate-covered Cherry Blossoms, however Ellis throws her shoe at the plate, and knocks it out of Lucas' hand into the lake. This causes Lucas to feel guilty about the trip, but Jaylen tells him that the girls are just "jealous they didn't get the royal treatment." Jaylen exclaims how the guys get along with each other way more than the girls who are just bitter and states that guys are the best.

After this statement, Chris announces over the PA speakers that, as of that moment, the teams are dissolved and every camper is on their own. The boys stare at each other and separate, with no problem being pit against each other. Chris isn't done on the PA speaker, and former Screaming Gopher member Stella returns to the island on the boats that brought them to the island. Once the boat stops, Stella elegantly jumps off the boat and greets her former team, not too bitter about them voting her out. Rylee asks Chris why Stella returned, quoting Chris stating that once a camper is voted off, they are never allowed to return "ever." Chris says he lied, and Jada hushes her before he thinks about bringing the whole cast back. Stella is seen hugging Jaylen, who haven't seen each other since their goodbye and hugs him tightly. Stella then notices that Abe is still in the competition, much to her disappointment, but decides to greet him anyways and saying "It's good to see you!" before moving onto Rylee. Chris then announces and greets the next returning camper, Kelly, who was on the Screaming Gophers. She's on another boat, similar to the one Stella returned on, and gets off and takes a photo with her polaroid camera. Kelly says that it's good to be back and when she notices that Stella's back runs to hug her and then later Jaylen. Rylee is hesitant about Kelly returning, however Kelly states she has no bad blood against her, stating that the competition got to their heads and brushes it off. Chris then instructs the campers to assemble in the amphitheater for their next challenge. George is excited for the next challenge and asks Jaylen for a high-five but as Jaylen leaves with his two old fiends, he reminds George about Chris' statement saying it's "every camper for themselves." George drops his head but Adam pats his back and says that he shouldn't worry, before the two watch the yacht leave the dock.

Stella enters the girls' cabin with Kelly behind her, and the two notice the tape diving the two sides. Stella asks the girls if things got heated, and Sammie says yes but Jada shushes her, but Stella says that it's fine and things get a little territorial sometimes. Kelly then asks if she can sit on Rylee's bed with her, and Rylee nods and Kelly puts her arm around Rylee's neck, making her uncomfortable. Stella expresses how grateful and happy she is to be back but reminds the girls about how dangerous Abe is as she rolls up the placed tape. Ciande says that she hasn't seen a bad side of Abe ever since a few challenges ago, but Stella is adamant about Abe's personality and motives.

Later, the campers are seated in a multilevel panel area at the amphitheater, and Chris declares that the next competition will be a torture game called "Say Uncle." Any camper who refuses to accept a challenge or does not complete it in the designated ten seconds will be disqualified, and the winner will earn invincibility and also a luxurious trailer. After introducing a mask-wearing Chef as his assistant, Chris spins the Wheel of Misfortune for Jaylen's challenge.

For the "Turtle Puck Shots" challenge, Jaylen has to stand in front of a hockey goal, as Chef fires grumpy snapping turtles at him. Jaylen manages to dodge the snapping turtles, but Chef then shoots one right at his arm, causing it to bite down. Jaylen is on the ground murmuring to himself, and Chris asks Jaylen if he's having fun. Jaylen then shoots up his middle finger, which is censored out and states "Uncle". Lucas tells Adam about how Jaylen's challenge looked very painful, but Adam pretends not to hear Lucas, Lucas sighs and says that he's sorry for not telling Adam about the Tyler vote, and says he would've vote for himself if he could go back in time. Adam sighs and accepts the apology, making Lucas very happy.

Sammie's challenge is Marshmallow Waxing," which requires her to endure ten seconds of excruciating pain from Chef's application of melted marshmallow mixture to her face. Despite when she first screamed, Sammie successfully completes the challenge and thanks Chef for unclogging her pores. Adam shudders and tells Lucas that if he had to do the challenge, he wouldn't have lasted long. Lucas then chuckles and says that guys like Adam can't handle two things: beauty and pain. Because she successfully completed the challenge without complaining, Sammie gets to pick the next person for the challenge. Jada pulls Sammie in, and whispers into her ear. Sammie sighs and picks Rylee as the next person to face a challenge, whose task is to stand in a barrel of leeches for ten seconds.

Rylee anxiously walks towards the barrel, however Ciande waves her hand and says that she'll take Rylee's place, shocking everyone. Ciande almost completes the challenge with only having to last only one more second, however she eliminates herself from the challenge and is forced to enter the stocks in which all losers must be bound. Adam is next and his challenge is to wear a pair of wooden shorts and enduring a woodpecker. After Adam completes his challenge, a montage shows with Jada having her nose hair plucked, Abe being squeezed by a boa constrictor, which disqualifies him when he says "uncle", and Stella wearing a shirt made entirely of live bees. Chris then spins the wheel and lands on a Sasquatchanakwa. He then tells Stella, for completing the challenge, she'll be able to pick someone to spend ten seconds inside a large wooden crate with Sasquatchanakwa. Ciande mouths a name to Stella, and Stella says she'll pick Ellis. Ellis looks furious but gets up and heads to the crate.

Ellis steps into the crate and emerges to be okay after ten seconds, however she has some scratches on her indicating she had some trouble hurting the beast, but nonetheless completed the challenge. Stella is now eliminated due to Ellis completing the challenge, and Chris shows a series of clips of how other campers were eliminated: Ellis freaks out when she gets the crocodile challenge and volunteers to be out, George can't hop over a line of skunks between rocks in time; Sammie can't stand the sound of weird noises she's forced to listen to, Jada won't get her hair cut at the "Wawanakwa" hair salon by Chef, Lucas eats a bit of ice cream but then gets a brain freeze. After this, Kelly gets shocked by a pair of electric eels, and she surprisingly likes it and asks to be shocked again. Chris tells her she has the choice of choosing the next participant, and she chooses Adam to receive a poison ivy facial.

Chris and the producers approve of it, but Chris asks Kelly's motive. Kelly said it'll just help her advance to the final round because who'd be crazy enough to let it happen to them. Adam is laid on a table and Chef puts on gloves and is about to put on the poison ivy until Adam freaks out and says "uncle", which gets him eliminated from the challenge. After Adam is in a stock, Chris tells the audience that Rylee and Kelly are the last remaining campers after twenty rounds of torture.

Chris tells Rylee that she needs to engage in a log roll with Vodka, a grizzly bear who Chris believes has been the European log-rolling champion for the past twelve years. Chris tells Rylee that she needs to stay on the log for ten seconds to avoid death in the piranha-infested waters surrounding. Chris says Rylee can back out now, but Rylee dismisses Chris and says she'll do it. Once the challenge starts, Vodka has control over the log. This occurs for a while before Rylee gains control by running to a jumping halt, causing Vodka to spin into the water and later appears with barely any fur due to the piranha attack. Rylee wins individual immunity and a brand-new food-filled trailer. Kelly congratulates Rylee, but Rylee later asks Ciande about Kelly's motives, but Ciande says she doesn't know them.

At the Elimination Ceremony later in the night, Chris tells the campers that they ran out of marshmallows and will have to order some later. Chris then goes on to say how he reviewed the confessional vote recordings and expresses about how much drama and lies are going around, which he asks the campers to continue. He says he usually keeps their votes private, and shows the campers what their peers think and whom they voted for. In the recordings, Sammie votes for Kelly; Jaylen votes for Jada; Adam, Lucas, George, Rylee, Ciande, Ellis, Jada, and Abe vote for Kelly; Stella votes for Jada, and then Kelly's confessional shows that she voted for Jada. Chris then announces that Kelly has been eliminated with nine votes cast against her. Kelly asks why and Abe says that a lot of them thought she was very suspicious with her challenge performance and Rylee convinced a lot of them to vote her out again. Kelly, now eliminated promises Rylee that she never was going to target her. Rylee feels bad about this, but Kelly then says goodbye to Jaylen and Stella as they walk her to the Boat of Losers.

Kelly boards the Boat of Losers, and takes a photo of the island with her polaroid camera, and Chef whose driving the boat, stating she'll put it on her blog for Total Drama. Kelly tells Stella that she'll be in a place that the remaining campers have never heard of, but Stella changes the subject and says that Rylee is hosting a party in her new trailer. Everyone heads to Rylee's camper and they party until the episode fades to black.
