After finding the biggest objects that they can, the final seven must break them apart into small enough pieces to fit them through a small window without breaking it and win immunity. One contestant incurs the wrath of everybody for supposedly manipulating his crush. The biggest target wins immunity for himself, but also further angers his crush. In the end, with one of the two villains clearly leaving, a saboteur tries to throw her ally under the bus to stay in. However, her ally honors their alliance and makes the others eliminate the less honest villain, although the two villains solidify their friendship.
Plot[]
The episode starts with Wayne and Raj standing in front of the confessional while Priya cries inside. Damien goes up to them and Wayne tells him to join the line. Damien then asks how long Priya has been crying in the confessional, to which Raj responds with twenty minutes, and that he didn’t cry that long when his dog ate his Sidney Crosby rookie card. Wayne remembers that happening and asks Raj if his dog never pooped it out, and Raj tells him that he didn’t because “He knows what that card’s worth.” Damien tries to convince Priya that it was no big deal since Zee told secrets about everyone. In response to this, Priya slams open the door, knocking over and injuring Wayne and Raj by accident and yelling that what Zee did is not the reason she is upset before slamming the door shut again. Wayne and Raj got up in pain, but Priya slammed open the door once more and knocked them down again. She got in Damien’s face and said that she was mad because Caleb played her before she stormed off.
 Priya |
“ | I can’t believe I fell for Caleb’s [mocking] wow, you’re funny. Was I working out too loud for you? We have so much in common! Ugh! | ” |
 Wayne |
“ | [Wayne]: I see so many stars today! [Raj]: I like this circus music! |
” |  Raj |
Priya questions if Damien, Wayne, and Raj get what she's going through and that it hurts the most that Caleb said he never liked her, just wanted to be in an alliance, and that she only found it out after they kissed, which Damien agreed was not cool.
 Damien |
“ | Good on Zee for dishing on Caleb before his lies got even worse. Kind of feel bad for voting him off the island... | ” |
MK and Julia spy on the four, not caring about Priya's feelings. MK is annoyed that everyone feels bad for Priya, but nobody cared when she was being mauled by a bear. Julia agrees but says they could get in on the "poor Priya" action and squeeze out a few fake tears to avoid elimination. They walk up to the group as Julia asks Priya how she is, saying that she looks terrible. Priya thanks her sarcastically while MK glares at Julia, which Julia doesn't get, because she believes Priya does look terrible. MK says that Julia meant to say things look terrible at the next elimination, saying "Girl power!" Damien is upset about this because they aren't talking about the game and that some things are more important. Julia doesn't know what could be more important than a million dollars, so Damien explains in terms for Julia to understand: "Broken heart emoji, crying emoji, thumbs-down emoji." Raj doesn't get why he's using the emojis and takes it in a joking way so that he says his own emojis, missing the point of why Damien said the emojis in the first place: "Spider web emoji, peach emoji that looks like a butt! Then, wind cloud emoji that makes it look like the peach is farting!" Wayne and Raj laugh at this while Damien just says "Seriously?" He apologizes to Priya and asks what they were talking about, making her begin crying again, upsetting Damien.
 MK |
“ | [MK]: So, now feelings are more important than a million bucks? [Julia]: Nuh-uh! That's gross. |
” |  Julia |
 Caleb |
“ | [sighs] Okay, it's been ten hours. Time to test the waters. | ” |
Caleb goes up to Priya and asks if she has a moment to talk, infuriating her and making her scream at him to go away.
Caleb |
“ | The water's a little hot. | ” |
Caleb is worried by this and backs off to respect her personal space. As Priya shoots daggers at him, Wayne jumps in front and yells at Caleb to keep walking. Chris's voice is heard on the intercom, telling them to hurry to the woods for their next challenge.
When they arrive, Chef tells them that they have to look for the biggest object they can and bring it back to the woods. He says they can take anything on the island, and that they have twelve minutes and fourteen seconds, which Chris says is an oddly specific amount of time. Chef tells him that it's the exact length of a video he and Chris have to see of a kitten and a tortoise becoming best friends. Wanting to see it, Chris asks what the campers are waiting on and to go before blowing the airhorn. Caleb runs besides Priya, attempting to talk to her. She refuses to talk to him, but he keeps trying... until he runs into an oncoming tree. Wayne asks her if she knew the tree was coming, which she responds by smiling at him with an evil grin and saying "Uh-huh."
Caleb |
“ | If I don't win immunity today, this guy is going home for sure. | ” |
As Caleb runs, he is stopped by MK and Julia as MK jokes about him heading for the Dock of Shame. Caleb tells her it isn't over yet, but Julia tells him that it probably is, since he's super unpopular, to which MK compares him to a bran muffin on a plate of cupcakes. Julia offers him to join them while MK calls it "One alliance to rule them all!" However, Caleb doesn't want to, since he watched all of the last season and feels he's better alone than teaming up with them. As he runs off, MK calls him rude, but Julia tells her she has two words for Caleb: "Dead meat."
Raj smiles at something he calls big, talking about an old fridge he found.
Raj |
“ | If I get in the right position, I should be able to carry this fridge no problem. | ” |
Raj grabs the fridge and grunts, but it doesn't seem like he got in the right position as he hoped, as he screams before the fridge falls on him. He manages to reach an arm out from underneath and drag the fridge while it's being crushed, saying it "Still counts as carrying." Wayne goes over to him worried, but then calls what Raj managed to grab a sweet score, and so he needs to find something too.
Wayne |
“ | Everyone's thinking big, so I need to think bigger! | ” |
Caleb looks around to find something big, not wanting a chair or an umbrella on a table, and so he decides on a canoe. However, as soon as he gets close to it, a tree falls down and breaks the canoe in half as Julia, who was holding the axe used to cut down the tree tells him "Timber!"
Julia |
“ | [slides her finger across the sharp side of the axe] Not the first time I've used a tree to take out Caleb, so this is very on-brand for me. | ” |
Caleb sarcastically calls what she did real nice, telling her that destruction of property is a crime as he runs off once more.
MK looks for something big that won't break her back as she spots Chef's car.
MK |
“ | He did say everything on the island was up for grabs. | ” |
Damien finds a sheep and calls it big, smiling as it simply eats grass.
Damien |
“ | So far, it's the biggest thing I've found, and it can walk itself! Win-win! [hugs the sheep and laughs] You've done it again, Damien! | ” |
Caleb struggles while carrying a picnic table, believing nobody will bring back anything heavier. Just then, MK drives by and calls him "Mr. Too good for our alliance," making fun of the picnic table as she drives off and blows exhaust into his face. Chris tells them they have five minutes left, causing Caleb to complain.
Wayne |
“ | I'm tryna think of big stuff, but I got nothin'! I'm just sittin' in this giant poop shed with no ideas! [time fast forwards as he's got a thinking face on] [time fast forwards again as he drools in the toilet] [time fast forwards again as he sticks his finger in his ear] [time fast forwards again and he's sleeping] [time fast forwards for the last time as he thinks] [gasps] That's the face I'd make if I had an idea! | ” |
A crab walks across the sand as it is suddenly crushed by Caleb's foot, who is running and desperately looking for something bigger than a car. Then Caleb finds Chris's Yacht and admires it, he questions that Chris has a yacht but then is glad that Chris has a yacht since he can use it as his object.
Caleb |
“ | Not many people can carry a yacht, but have you met "Ripped" and "Shredder"? I named my biceps. | ” |
Priya struggles while pushing along a large boulder. She eventually makes her way up a ramp she made and pushes the rock into a catapult.
Priya |
“ | "Never lug what you can launch!" [laughs] That was the motto at Catapult Camp. | ” |
Damien walks by with the sheep on a leash and calls her picking a boulder classic. She agrees and adds on that it's heavy as well. She looks into the distance and spots Caleb slowly dragging the yacht with him.
Priya |
“ | Caleb crushed my heart! So it's only fair that I crush him! | ” |
She grins and pulls the lever, launching the boulder in Caleb's direction purposefully. The boulder lands right in front of him, making him panic and confused as to where the boulder even came from. Damien questions if she did that on purpose, to which she responds by saying no, but she only says no for legal reasons.
Chris is amazed by the video, not believing friendship could actually be a good thing. Just then, MK pulls up in Chef's car, upsetting him, since he tries to tell her she can't take his car. She said it could've fooled her as she revs up the car.
MK |
“ | Trust me, I'm doing this car a favour. | ” |
Chris congratulates the campers for all bringing back great objects, complimenting Damien specifically for finding Old Chester, who escaped from a wool farm a long time ago. Since it's something important, Damien believes he won the challenge, but Caleb believes he won because he brought back Chris's yacht, making both Julia and Wayne look back at it. Chris tells him it was his "smallest, least favorite yacht", giving him a slow clap.
Caleb |
“ | That took all my strength to get Chris' boat here. Why isn't he telling me I won already? | ” |
Chris tells them that now they can start the challenge, shocking everyone. Caleb tells him it was the challenge, since Chef told them to bring back the biggest object they could, and so he won, since his object was the largest. Chef tells them the objects they brought are part of the challenge, not the challenge itself. Wayne is upset and can't believe they tricked them, leaving Chris to wonder if he's ever even seen the show. Chef tells them they each have a door, and whatever they brought has to fit through the door, but if they break it, they're out. MK questions how they're meant to do that, and so Chris shows them tools to take apart their objects piece by piece.
Julia |
“ | [slides her finger across the sharp side of the axe] Cut my tree into pieces, stuff it through a hole, and win the challenge! Child's play. | ” |
Wayne |
“ | Breakin' down this thing is gonna be a cinch! | ” |
Damien |
“ | [hugs Old Chester as they both scream] | ” |
Chris blows the airhorn as Julia starts to slam her axe into the tree. MK opens the hood of Chef's car and grins as Damien tries to get close to Old Chester, who runs him over instead. Raj opens the fridge and finds a plate of food as he covers his mouth to not puke. Wayne screams and slams an axe into the confessional, but to his surprise, it bounces back and hits him in the face, knocking one of his teeth out. Priya and Caleb both reach for the pickaxe, their hands touching as Caleb smiles at her.
Caleb |
“ | Priya doesn't know that my feelings for her changed! I can fix this. I just need some one-on-one time with her. | ” |
Caleb tries to tell her great minds think alike, but Priya grabs the pickaxe away from him and steps on him while walking away. MK pulls out an electric screwdriver, scaring Chef.
MK |
“ | Last year at school, I had to pick between auto mechanics or theater. I picked theater. But then they asked me to talk about my feelings on the "Emotions Carpet", so now I know a lot about cars. | ” |
Damien comforts Chester by saying he has to get him through the hold, but that he won't hurt him, and leave him the dignity he deserves. He then pulls out electric sheers, scaring Chester.
Damien |
“ | I don't know if shaving Old Chester will get him through that hole, but I gotta try. | ” |
Julia continues slamming her axe into the tree, saying she wanted oat milk and not almond milk.
Julia |
“ | When I need to smash stuff, I envision the faces of baristas who've wronged me. | ” |
Raj pulls the food out of the fridge and says he guesses it looks okay, taking a bite of it. Chris tells him the food is meant to go through the hole in the door, not his face. Chef says the food is old, and they haven't used that fridge since season one. Whether it was from eating the food or from hearing Chef, Raj grows nauseous and vomits the food into the hole on the door as Chris and Chef look away. Chris calls it a good save and assumes Raj is done, but he gets up and starts eating the food again. Chef is confused as to why he wouldn't just put the food directly through the slot, which Chris doesn't know either.
Caleb manages to break a single railing off and believes he is making some progress... until he sees Julia is almost done completely taking apart the tree.
Caleb |
“ | Okay. What would Priya do? | ” |
Priya |
“ | [Priya]: Caleb is so not a strategy guy. [bang from outside] He's toast! [another bang] Could you stop for a minute?! [Wayne] (from outside): Oh, sorry, eh? Didn't know you were in here! |
” | Wayne |
Julia proceeds to put all the pieces of the tree into the hole while Priya just seems to hug the boulder. Wayne lifts the axe again and throws it at the confessional, making it hit him in the groin, which he holds in pain and wonders why that keeps happening. He tells Chris the axe must be broken since it keeps hitting him. Chris apologizes and gives him a new axe. Confident about the new axe, Wayne throws it at the confessional once more, but it hits him in the face as he says "Santa, is it game time already?" Chef calls it amazing, believing the gasses from disgusting teens must've petrified the wood and made the confessional indestructible.
Caleb |
“ | I've finally figured out what Priya would do! She'd wanna know how the yacht was put together in order to know how to take it apart. | ” |
Caleb uses a screwdriver to take an antenna out, happy that he got one piece down, but he falls through, and says there's many more to go. MK pulls out the part that makes the sound of the horn, saying she guesses Chef won't be doing much "honking if you like butter tarts!" Chef is upset she read his bumper stickers, saying they're private and he should call his mechanic.
Damien and Chester do jumping jacks, since Damien believes he might be able to fit Chester through the slot if he slims him down a little.
Wayne uses a chainsaw on the confessional, but it doesn't work, so he throws it on the ground and believes now it's time to bring in the big guns. He somehow finds a crane and says it's "smash time" before dropping the wrecking ball on the confessional. However, the ball bounces back and instead lands on top of where he's sitting as he lets out a weak "ow."
Wayne |
“ | Give that outhouse ten minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct! [falls over] | ” |
Caleb |
“ | I just remembered Priya's number one rule: "play to your strengths," and my strength... is strength! | ” |
Caleb punches the yacht and breaks it before ripping his shirt apart. Priya stares at him in shock, possibly unable to look away.
Priya |
“ | Ugh! Why's he gotta work with his shirt off?! That is so hot necessary! I mean- not necessary! I mean- [sighs] is it hot in here? | ” |
MK takes another piece off the car, upset because she needs the car to be taken apart faster. Chef asks his mechanic on the phone how long the rebuild will take, believing it'll be a two or three day job, maybe six. Just then, MK uses gasoline to light the car on fire. Chef screams to put the fire out as Chris roasts marshmallows on it, telling Chef he can't interfere with the challenge.
Priya finishes hugging the rock, exclaiming she "found it" as she slams her pickaxe into the boulder.
Priya |
“ | Quarry Camp taught me how to find a rock's weak point. | ” |
The pickaxe broke the rock into tons of tiny pieces instantly as she cheers. However, she looked back and began to stare at Caleb again. Damien runs by telling Chester they have to run four more laps, but he also tells Priya to stop watching Caleb. She picks up a piece of the rock and says she is not watching Caleb, but she had carved Caleb's face into the rock, upsetting her.
Caleb |
“ | That’s a good sign! I mean, how mad can you be with someone if you’re carving their face into a rock? | ” |
Priya then immediately smashes the Caleb-shaped rock with a sledgehammer, scowling and dusting her hands off afterwards.
Caleb |
“ | I guess the answer is “pretty mad”. | ” |
Wayne states that Snow Owls are no quitters and charges into the confessional with a bucket on his head, finally managing to make a dent in it. Damien tries to squeeze Old Chester through the hole, but he is still too big, and Damien asking Old Chester for ideas on what they should do only causes the sheep to kick Damien in anger before hopping away. Unfortunately, kicking Damien like this sends him through his door, breaking it and prompting Chris to disqualify him from the challenge. Wayne tries to force a piece of the confessional through the hole, but the pressure of his hits causes the door to break in half and fall off, causing Chef to disqualify him from the challenge as well. Chef also disqualifies Raj from the challenge after the latter manages to get food poisoning from all of the mystery food in the fridge and passes out while noting how cold he is.
While Priya and Julia are shown to be nearly finished, MK finishes destroying Chef’s car and sweeps in all into a dustpan, but trips while trying to run it over to her window and ends up inhaling a good chunk of it while the rest is scattered away by the impact. After exasperatingly questioning if MK just inhaled a car, Chris points out that this means that she can’t fit the entire thing through her door anymore and disqualifies her from the challenge as well, meaning that the challenge is now a three-way race between Julia, Priya, and Caleb.
Julia |
“ | Seriously, it's almost sad that they're still trying. I have got this. | ” |
Julia is about to grab the last log when she is suddenly attacked by a squirrel occupying it, with Chris remarking that she'd do the same thing if someone destroyed her nest. Caleb manages to push what he believes is the last bit of the yacht into the hole, only for Chris to point out that Caleb had forgotten a single screw. Caleb complains while Chris amusingly asks if technicalities are fun. Julia gets the squirrel off of her face and stuffs it into the hole. It comes down to Priya and Julia running towards their doors with their last items, but Caleb picks up his screw and successfully throws it into his door hole, winning him immunity. Caleb celebrates his victory, but it is cut short when he sees Priya's disappointed stare and her walking away. Chris tells Caleb that it could be worse, like Chef's car. Chef is off to the side crying and telling his mechanic, Carlo, that he'll bring his car first thing on Monday morning. Later that evening, Julia points out to MK that with Caleb winning immunity, it's either her or MK who will be eliminated that night. But out of respect of their alliance, Julia wants to let things play out how it plays out. MK agrees with the deal and shakes on it.
MK |
“ | My hairy butt we have a deal! Ha! No way is Julia taking this lying down. Well, neither am I. Game on! | ” |
In the mess hall, as Priya picks up a slice of pizza, MK pops up and tells her that she claims she saw Julia lick Priya's slice and put it back. In the cabins, Damien is looking at his bed covered in yogurt, with MK pointing out that it happens to be Julia's favorite flavor. Back in the mess hall, MK tells Wayne that she heard Julia's uncle is the president and she asked him to cancel the hockey season this year, causing Wayne to cry.
At the elimination ceremony, Chris tells Caleb that after today, the safety net is gonna expire, just like the expired food Raj ate from the fridge. Chris announces that it’s time to highlight today’s lowlights and with that, Chef starts explaining why some campers would be at risk of elimination. Wayne is called out for destroying one wall of the outhouse, meaning that everyone would have to pee with one wall missing. Wayne apologizes for his actions. Chef tells Damien that he tried to shear a sheep and try to stuff it in a door and he knows that they’re gonna get letters about this incident for sure. And as for Priya, she tried to crush Caleb with a giant boulder, which he notes was an actual attempt to kill Caleb and is actually kind of serious.
Priya |
“ | Chef's right. I let myself down today. | ” |
Raj, Wayne, Damien, and Priya receive their marshmallows, leaving Julia and MK at the bottom two. Julia receives the last marshmallow, surprising MK. As Chris announces that MK is out, she questions Julia on how she did it even after all of the terrible lies she told about her and notes that the lies Julia told must’ve been insane. However, Julia reveals that, unlike MK, she actually did honor their deal to not try and sabotage each other: in fact, the only thing she did during MK’s sabotaging spree was tell the others about her and MK’s agreement. MK gasps upon realizing that Julia knew she would try to sabotage her and basically set her up to look like the more dishonest and untrustworthy competitor between the two of them, before commending Julia for being so good at manipulation, with Julia responding that it is her gift. Chris interrupts their conversation, however, and indicates that it’s time for MK to go.
 MK |
“ | Ya know, for someone who hates people, islands, and doing stuff, I made it pretty far this time. And if I could do it all over again, there's nothing I'd change. Other than maybe not coming here at all. | ” |
At the docks, Julia asks if MK is mad at her for getting her kicked off. MK tells Julia that she’s an evil, backstabbing monster, before assuring her that she’s not mad at all. Julia fondly states that MK is terrible too and MK notes that game recognizes game and encourages Julia to win the million dollars. Julia then states that she’ll share some of the money with MK if she wins, though MK admits that she wouldn’t do the same for Julia and Julia admits that she was lying. The two share a hug and Chef questions if they like each other or not, while Chris compares their villainous friendship to the tortoise and the kitten if they were both jerks. The Drone of Despair takes MK away, with her asking if it could go any faster as Chris signs off the episode.

- This is the second time that MK is eliminated in an episode where she and Julia are in the bottom two.
- This is the first time where none of the people that Chef calls out are in the bottom two.
Continuity[]
- Damien admits to voting for Zee in the previous episode.
- MK complains that no one comforted her when she was bested by a bear in Canoe Believe It?.
- Julia mentions having to push a tree onto Caleb in You Poor Saps.
- Chef crying over his car being ruined is a reference to the running gag of his car being destroyed constantly by the kids in Total DramaRama.
