Total Drama Mystery Island Chapter 1 Transcript

''The camera rolls onto a beach house in Australia. Inside Bridgette and Geoff are in the kitchen, Bridgette is feeding their two kids while Geoff is watching international surfing competitions taking place in the Philippines. Bridgette opens a letter, revealing shock on her face''

Bridgette: '''Geoff, in my room, now. Micah, can you help your sister eat while mommy and daddy talk'''

Micah: Okay!

Bridgette pulls Geoff into their room

Bridgette: It’s signed McLean

Geoff gasps and struggles to find words to rebuke the possibility

Geoff: I- my homeroom teacher in 5th grade was named Mrs. McLean, besides, isn’t he in jail?

Bridgette: Considering his term was 8 years, probably not

Geoff: Well, I, um, what does it say?

Bridgette: ‘'''Hello Mr. and Mrs. Vista, we are writing to invite you to our 15 year reunion party. We have sent a research team the past few years to the location of Wawanakwa, and have discovered AND restored ruins of the island. So, will you please join us?’ No.'''

Geoff: C’mon, I haven’t seen Duncan or DJ in years...besides what about your friends from our season.

Bridgette: '''WHAT DO YOU MEAN FRIENDS? Gwen thought it was a good idea to publicly shame me for not inviting her to our wedding, we hadn’t seen her in, what, 5 years? At best? Now it’s, what 12? Also Leshawna ghosted herself from the show. Everyone else never interacted with me!'''

Geoff: Look babe-

Coral: MOOOOOOOOOOMY!

Micah: SHHHHHHHHHH!

''Bridgette runs into the kitchen with Geoff following behind. Bridgette is able to manage the situation on her own.''

Geoff: Awww dang, Brody didn’t do too well.

Bridgette: Only a 305...wow

She looks back at the kids

Bridgette: Oh Geoff, we haven’t even considered the kids!

Geoff: Luckily for us, even if Brody does make the World Championships, it’s in Melbourne, and two weeks after the reunion, he could supervise.

Bridgette: You trust Brody…

Geoff: He would do anything for the kids, we made him their godfather for a reason.

Bridgette: I guess you’re right.

Bridgette and Geoff go help Coral and Micah and eat breakfast, the camera travels around the world and back into Canada, it zooms into a law firm, Courtney is writing her papers when an assistant comes in

Assistant: Miss Judges, I have a letter for you, it’s from...TDN?

Courtney perks up at TDN, she knows that’s Total Drama Network

Courtney: Oh, um, thanks Bobby, can I read this in private?

Bobby, the assistant: Of course

Courtney: '''‘Can you attend our Total Drama Reunion? On July 8, we will be celebrating our 15th anniversary of the show that’s made us millions.’ Of course they have to note that, “RSVP soon so we can have you!” This is interesting…'''

Courtney gets on the phone

Courtney: '''Hello, this is Courtney Judges, I need to take a vacation around the date of July 8th...yes this year, can it be flexible? Okay thank you'''

She gets off the phone

Courtney: Guess I’m going to do Total Drama

''There is a series of montages, showing Trent getting his letter in a recording studio, Justin doing a photoshoot, Eva finishing teaching a workout class, Sam doing gamer stuff, Sugar on her farm doing a commercial, and B working on a robotics project. The final part is DJ driving the Total Drama Bus with Momma.''

DJ, while at a red light: Hey mama, I got this letter yesterday, it talked about the Total Drama Reunion.

Momma: '''Devon! Not Toral Dama! That program gave you depression for...2 years after World Tour! You can’t go!'''

DJ: Momma, I understand your concerns, but I want to do this, I want to be with my old friends, Leshawna, Duncan, Geoff!

Momma: I AM NOT LETTING YOU BE MANIPULATED AGAIN! She starts crying

DJ: I- He parks the car in a parking space, you know what, if you don’t let me go, you’re the manipulating one

Momma: '''Devon Joseph! Why would I do that!'''

DJ: '''Momma, I’m 30...I shouldn’t have to ride with you around Canada in a 12 year old bus! That’s just wrong! But you’re like, ‘But, but Devon...I NEED you,’ Momma, you don’t need me, and I don’t need you, I am going to that party, and you can’t stop me.'''

''DJ continues driving, trying to ignore the hurt he’s caused in his Momma. The silent sobbing fills the bus with tension.''

Momma: Oh Devon, er, DJ, I’m so sorry for forcing you to be cooped up in this dirty bus with me, I’ve ruined your life for the worse, and, oh, I’m so sorry…

DJ stretches out his arms, implying hugging Momma

DJ: '''Oh Momma, you can still call me Devon Joseph and I would love to live the rest of my life with you, that’s what I love about you; however, I want my own freedom sometimes, no, all the time. I love you. Also it says ‘P.S. DJ, we know you have the Total Drama Bus, if your mom advertises the reunion with the bus we will pay you guys and we can telecast it.” Good news for-'''

Momma: Devon Joseph if you don’t RSVP, you are forever indebted to me

DJ laughs

DJ: That’s my momma…

Momma: WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT??!?!?!?!?

DJ: Ahem, nothing

''Another montage is played, Dakota is at her, tall, house doing modeling work, Shawn is punching a Zombie-like mannequin while Jasmine reads the letter, Scarlett is in jail while reading the letter, Staci is at a family ancestry seminar when she receives the letter, Harold is at the headquarters of Steve’s Awesome Camps when he gets the letter, and Gwen is at her home vlogging with Sierra when she gets the letter. The camera zooms in a corporate building in Toronto and zooms into Heather’s office, she is the CFO of a fashion business.''

Heather, on the phone: '''Hello? Oh, someone wants to meet me? Yes, my schedule is open? Oh my god! Oh, um, sorry, yes please let Mr. Burromento in. Thanks. Bye.'''

Heather lunges into the door and hurriedly lets Alejandro in

Heather, screaming quietly: WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY OFFICE?!?!?!!

Alejandro: I would’ve thought you’d want to see me again?

Heather: It’s awful to see you again

Alejandro: That’s my Heather, no wonder you’re a CFO

Heather: How’d you know that?

Alejandro points to a sign that says ‘Heather Cong; CFO of Toronto Fashion Gazette’

Heather, in a mocking voice: That’s my Alejandro, no wonder you stalk me

Alejandro: Actually, they fail to stalk you, they still think we’re together

Heather: Who’s they- Alejandro shows her the letter, revealing the TDN logo Oh

Alejandro: Stupid aren’t they, so do you wanna come to the reunion party

Heather: Alejandro I would love to, she walks to the table and sits on it like the true queen she is '''but I wanna follow my dreams, just. like. you. Funnily enough, my dream doesn’t involve my ex-boyfriend going with me to a party where we got together. So I’ll come, not with you though.'''

Alejandro: But…

Heather: '''Awww, poor Alejandro can’t get his way, turns out I’m more powerful than Jose... but I can’t leave you with nothing you evil piece of Spanish crap'''

''Heather kisses Alejandro and shoves him out the door and slams it on him, a TV screen in her office plays another montage. Ezekiel’s therapist reluctantly gives the letter to him. Izzy is commanding troops at the military base. Anne Maria is reading her letter on the New Jersey boardwalk. Leonard is LARPing with his friend, Tammy; she is disappointed that she can’t go. Topher is behind the scenes of a news telecast, and Duncan is at a club, keeping himself sober, but he is having a good time. The next scene is in a house in the suburbs, inside Mike, Zoey, and Cameron are all having a night together, Mike and Zoey’s child is already asleep.''

Mike: So...what movie do we watch next?

Zoey: Ummm, Pirates of the Caribbean?

Cameron: I was gonna say, Destiny of the Journey to Mars but that works too!

Zoey notices a letter

Zoey: What’s this?

Zoey reads the letter; it is the letter from the TDN inviting the three of them to the reunion.

Cameron: Why would we go?

Zoey: Why wouldn’t we?

Mike: Because “TDN” is insane

Cameron pulls Zoey aside

Cameron: '''So with MPD, traumatizing events can trigger it again. Total Drama was obviously a traumatic experience for Mike, right?'''

Zoey: '''Oh Cam, that’s only a theory, I mean, there’s only one way to find out. Oh, I can’t believe I’m treating Mike like a science experiment!'''

Cameron: '''I know we both want the best for him. Is this reunion what’s right?'''

Zoey: It’s not but I know he’ll have fun…

Cameron: I mean, you are right that it’s only a theory…

Mike: Are y’all done

Zoey: Mike, do you want to go?

Mike: I mean, sure

Cameron: Ok, reunion party it is…

Zoey, trying not to look awkward, gleefully skips off into her room

Mike: There’s only one thing you two talk about behind my back…

Cameron: Oh, yea, we were just talking about, well, um, MPD, it can be triggered again through revisiting a traumatic event.

Mike looks at Cameron funnily

Mike: '''Oh, I thought you were talking about Zoey’s Lactose Intolerance. Anyways, TD wasn’t THAT traumatic.'''

''Cameron shrugs and follows Zoey to pack. Dawn is meditating in the forest when a bird delivers the letter to her. Tyler and Jo are working as a personal trainer with Josh when they receive it. Cody is in the teacher’s lounge when he gets the letter. Beardo is a DJ at Homecoming for his high school. Brick is hanging out with his friends at a Veterans gathering. Samey and Amy receive the letter split screen; they grimace at the fact that they have to interact with each other. The final stop is college, where Beth is visiting Lindsay’s sorority.''

Lindsay: '''Oh my gosh! Thank you so much BFFF! Thank you for coming to my 10th year anniversary party for attending Ottawa Community College! I appreciate it!'''

Beth: '''Yes! Thank you for inviting me BFFF!'''

Lindsay: I can’t believe I’ve been here for ten years!

A girl walks into the dorm room

???: Trust me, I can’t either

Lindsay: '''EEEEEEE! Hi Sableana! Beth, this is Sailorena!'''

Sabrina: It’s Sabrina

Beth: Hi Sabrina!

Sabrina: There’s a letter for you two

She drops the letter onto the bed Lindsay and Beth are sitting on and leaves.

Lindsay: What’s TDN?

Beth: Total Drama!

Lindsay: I get to see Taylor!

Beth: Yea…

''Beth looks visibly uncomfortable and laughs it off. A new montage plays. Showing Noah in the library studying for his residency. His friend gives the envelope to him. Dave is in the office as an accountant for a medical company when he receives the from the workroom. Lightning is in the locker room after practice for the Canadian Football League. Scott is at the kitchen table after a day of farming. His cousin, Rodney, is with him. Owen is doing a commercial for a nutrition company, as he has lost a lot of weight. Blaineley is preparing to host the Gemmie Awards. The last intro scene is of Sky at a Native American reserve.''

Sky, translated: Thanks to everyone for coming to the planning meeting of Old Traditions, New People!

''Sky says her goodbyes, and she walks to her Jeep. She starts the car but notices someone running to her. It is a young man.''

Young Man: Hey, there’s a letter for you!

Sky: Oh, Thanks!

''Sky closes the car window as he runs away. She opens the letter, revealing the TDN logo. She smirks as she drives away. The next montage is of vehicles transporting the former contestants to the party. The scene changes as it is late at night, TDN has reserved a luxurious hotel for the cast. Courtney is seen reuniting with Gwen.''

Gwen: Look who’s here…

Courtney: It’s my “I have two exes” bestie!

Duncan: Woo hoo, get a life

Courtney and Gwen snarl at him, and then laugh at him.

Chef: Boy crazy girls, get in the hotel

''The scene reveals a luxurious lobby, the camera follows the former love triangle into the ballroom, Leshawna is shown, but she inaudibly screams at the camera which swiftly turns away. The door closes behind the trio, and the lights turn on the stage. Harold is shown holding nunchucks.''

Harold: Who wants to see my mad skills!

Duncan: Booooo

Courtney: Woo hoo, get a life

''The crowd laughs at Courtney, even Heather, who has seemed to lose her humor with age. Chef shoves Harold off the stage.''

Chef: Folks, we have a problem!

Leshawna: No no, we do NOT have a problem

Chef: Chris was arrested for something

Heather: And we’re surprised, how?

Zoey: It seemed odd that the network let Chris do this, only to be arrested

The doors suddenly open

Police Officer: WE HAVE TRESPASSERS ON THE CRIME SCENE!

Dave: Great, things just got weirder.
