The Announcer had set up immunity as an award for finishing the 21st challenge: Staying alive. Rules were made, being abducted by aliens, hit by lasers from the spaceships, dying, being sucked into a blackhole, etc. Bubble and Leafy easily made their way inside their own spaceships, as Firey panicked to get into his. "If you get hit by anything, you lose immunity."

"Yikes!" Firey screamed, while he scrawned to his spaceship- despite being in literal zero gravity. He approached Leafy, who had invited him to get Spongy. By get, she meant rid spongy of getting immunity. Firey gleefully agreed with her. "Let's do it!"

Yet, Spongy successfully dodged all their attacks, leading Firey to use the 'Super-Speed-Mode' that was attached onto the spaceship. His friend stopped him from doing so, saying something along the lines of, "But don't you know how much energy that'll waste? You have to be more eco-friendly and-" As she, and her spaceship was obliterated by a laser beam sent by Spongy. Firey screamed in fear, missing his dear friend.

"Oh no! Leafy, no!" He probably didn't mean it wholeheartedly, since Leafy could just live again with the help of the Master Recovery Center. A few moments later as everyone slowly started dying one by one, the Announcer had sold Firey's spaceship due to budget cuts, leaving him to be shot to death by Bubble. Obviously he was up for elimination.

Episode 21's challenge was who could jump the furthest-- which, in all honesty, was probably one of the laziest challenge the Announcer had decided to give out to them. Though excusable since the whole episode was basically voting out a contestant, and another contestant winning the rejoins to join once again. The said contestants were Ice cube and Flower respectively, unsure why the viewers thought Flower was a nice pick, and Ice Cube for the sole reason that the TLC was really hot and they needed someone to help cool it down. In the challenge, Firey was thrown by Flower, however he didn't land way too far. Rocky had used his vomit to go really far, Spongy really not being able to move-- Bubble jumping low because the yoylecake Leafy had given her turned out to make people metal upon consumption.

Leafy muttered an apology to Bubble, "Oh, I forgot that yoyle berries have some extreme side effects. Sorry."

By the end of the episode, Leafy managed to win immunity by travelling to Yoyleland, or namely 2,763 miles. She gave her immunity to Spongy, feeling bad since they had used him as fuel on the spaceship on their way back on earth.

The past few episodes seemed like a flash to Firey, as he slowly awaited for the finals. Good luck must be on his side, as Leafy managed to still be in the game with him. Or maybe the viewers just really like her. With boredom flying through his head as he stared at the empty space of land spread in front of him, an idea came across his mind. Maybe it'd be a nice gift for her? Surely, friends give each other gifts, right? Firey had seen Leafy countless times give everyone gifts out of pure kindness. And, out of pure, total kindness for his friend, he rushed onto gathering materials together in one place, swiftly getting to work. The lava was the hardest part to get as Firey either had to tirelessly return back and forth from the mountain, or melt some rocks for them.

He stayed up until the dead of the night where everyone laid asleep, his eyes tired from trying not to blink as he tried to get every detail correctly. The brink of dawn arose, the sun gently shone onto the Ferris Wheel that Firey had created. It looked a bit crusty--was that the right word in Firey's mind? It looked more crooked, though manageable, seeing as he built it overnight. Firey's head turned around as he saw a familiar figure walking his way.

With glee, he rushed over to Leafy and invited her over. "Hey, Leafy- I made a ferris wheel. Do-- do you wanna come by and ride it with me?"

Leafy happily clapped her hands together as she followed Firey to the ferris wheel.
