Dressed like a doctor, complete with a stethoscope and head mirror, Chris lounged against the counter of a white, tiled, and fluorescently lit up waiting room, a bell to his right and a camera to his left. "Last time on Total Drama Action!" Chris opened as scenes from the previous episode were shown. "We called the cops on some of your favourite celebrities and introduced them to some of prison's grimiest criminals: Hollywood executives. Justin tried to start a campaign to get Tyler off the show, while Gwen started a campaign in Duncan's heart. LeShawna and Cody both felt quite strongly, but decided to spare Gwen's feelings about how they felt. The Grips won a swinging reward at a luxurious hotel, thanks to Izzy the gopher digging her way into the challenge to save them from certain loserdom. Yup, Izzy's back. Turns out I, in all my thorough glory, only eliminated E-Scope. Oh well, more eliminations for me!"

Chris walked out to the centre of the waiting room as the camera cut back to him, arms held together and his hands clasped. "Who will get checked into the hospital? Who will end up with a bad case of drama fever? My bet's on Gwen." He whispered slyly into the camera. "Find out all this and more, right here, right now, on Total! Drama! Action!"

Dear Mom and Dad I'm doin' fine,

You guys are on my mind.

You asked me what I wanted to be

And now I think the answer is plain to see,

I wanna be famous.

I wanna live close to the sun,

Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,

Everything to prove, nothing in my way

I'll get there one day.

'Cause, I wanna be famous!

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na!

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous

Outside of the trailers, the lamp lights had returned, lighting up the dark night sky. The stars no longer shone, and Gwen and Duncan sat next to each other with their homework packets on their legs and pens in their hands. The rest of the Gaffers were also sitting outside, except for DJ, who was nowhere in sight.

Harold scribbled in his packet when all of a sudden, his pants were pulled from the inside of his trousers and a wedgie big enough to make him drop his work on the floor held him in the air. Duncan's hand tightened around the band of his cowboy boxers. "Ow! What's this for!?"

With his free hand, Duncan dragged his packet in front of Harold's face. "Do my homework. It's not getting done by hands this dirty." He dropped the packet to the floor below him.

Gwen turned her head, shaking her head with a smirk. Cody frowned at him, while LeShawna glared as Harold struggled.

"I pick my nose! My hands are filthy!" Harold cried.

Duncan raised his brow. "You think I care? You're the geek, geek me up some history answers. Tell me what happened to King Henry, and then maybe I'll let you go."
