Plot
"Last time on Total Drama: Battle of the Sexes, we visited the eliminated contestants to see their take on the final four and who they think would win! They almost unanimously agreed that Jennifer or Corey should win! It was equally almost unanimous that either Dutch or Romulus should be eliminated next! That day, I had the last four eliminated contestants vote on who should go home next! They were all about to vote off Romulus when Rosalie pulled the last trick from her sleeve; manipulating everyone into voting off Dutch! That night Dutch was eliminated! The final three are set and the pen-ultimate challenge is reering it's ugly head! Who's going to win? Who's going to make it to the final two? Find out!"

Corey and Jennifer sat on the beach, talking.

"It's perfect! There are two of us and only one of him! We have the greater chance to eliminate him!" Corey said.

"Awesome! That means that we can both make it to the finale!" Jennifer cheered.

"That is if you guys manage to beat me in this challenge. Which you won't." Romulus laughed, "You're both going down."

Corey scowled, "What makes you so sure?"

"Because. I'm better then both of you combined." Romulus laughed, "Between the two of you you've won two challenges. And that's only because Rose let Jennifer win one and Jennifer blew up an old mansion."

"So?" Corey asked.

"Did you miss the keyword? Jennifer." Romulus pointed out, "Jennifer. You haven't won squat! You're useless. And you're totally going down."

Corey growled.

'''Corey Confessional: Ugh! I hate that guy! He's going down! He's going down!'''

Corey stood up, "Don't be too sure. You're going down today. And I'm going to make sure of it."

Romulus rolled his eyes.

'''Romulus Confessional: So now it's only Me, The Useless Guy, and Little Miss "Josiah! Save me!". I am totally going to win. I deserve it! I'm the only one who played the game! They're all petty compared to me. *laughs*'''

'''Jennifer Confessional: I'm in the final three! Who would have guessed?! I hope that Corey and I make it to finale- so that means that Romulus has to go. Like now!'''

"As if. Without Rose or Josiah, you guys are hopeless." Romulus laughed.

Jennifer stood up, "I don't need anyone! You're going down, you- you ginger freak!"

Romulus was taken a back, shocked.

Romulus Confessional: Ginger freak?

Jennifer raced after Corey.

"He has to go down." Jennifer and Corey said in unison to each other.

Romulus smirked on the beach, laying down and enjoying the rays.

"I'm going to make you proud." He said to himself.

"Final three! Please make your way to the arena! We've got a big surprise for you!" Chris announced.

The three remaining contestants walked through the forest.

"I wonder what he wants." Jennifer said.

"He's probably going to make us compete in the pen-ultimate challenge." Romulus said, rolling his eyes.

Jennifer scowled.

"Nice hair cut by the way." Romulus said, laughing.

Jennifer's eyes widened.

She turned around and tried to pounce on Romulus.

Corey held her back.

"Let me at him! Ugh! I'm going to rip out your throat with my teeth, you little weasel!" Jennifer cried, trying to reach him.

"Relax!" Corey shouted.

Romulus laughed and walked past them.

"Ugh! Let me go!" Jennifer cried.

"Violence isn't going to solve anything! We have to beat him in the challenge!" Corey shouted.

Jennifer huffed, "Fine."

The final three stood in the arena, observing the large contraption in front of them.

"What is that thing?" Romulus asked.

It was tall and insane looking.

The top seemed to look like a festival ride.

"Is that the gravitron?" Jennifer asked.

"Yup!" Chris laughed.

Directly underneath was a trampoline.

To the left of it was a conveyor belt, with a wall of fists to the right of it.

"That is your next challenge!" Chris said. "The first part anyway."

"Isn't the most dangerous part of the challenge the second part?" Corey asked.

"Not this time!" Chris said. "So here's the deal! The three of you must climb your way up to that carnival ride by means of the ropes right there! Be careful, because some are more sturdy then others! From there, the three of you will ride the Gravitron for a minute. Then you'll grab the parachutes from inside and jump out! Some of them are real parachutes. The others are filled with useless crud! You'll land on that trampoline directly underneath the ride! You'll bounce onto the conveyor belt and try to avoid the fists that pop out of that wall! Whoever gets the worst time loses! The two remaining will then compete in the final part of the challenge! The winner of that challenge gets to choose the person who goes to the final with him or her!"

"This is insane." Romulus said, "We could seriously die from this."

"I know!" Chris laughed, "That's what makes it excellent TV!"

Jennifer scoffed.

"Ready?" Chris asked.

The contestants got in running position.

"Set?"

Romulus has a determined looked on his face.

Romulus Confessional: No way are these puke-bags going to beat me!

Jennifer had a scowl on her face.

'''Jennifer Confessional: I can't let Romulus beat me! He's going down!'''

Corey was ready for this.

'''Corey Confessional: That jerk is going to lose! I'm going to make sure of it!'''

"Go!" Chris shouted.

The final three raced for the ropes.

Jennifer was the first to reach a rope.

She began to climb.

Just then, Romulus grabbed her by the waist and pulled her down.

She landed on the floor.

"Oof!" Jennifer cried.

Romulus laughed as he climbed, "Sucks for you!"

Jennifer growled and raced to another rope.

She began to climb.

Corey was already climbing, just behind Romulus.

"Romulus is currently in the lead!" Chris announced.

Romulus climbed with a certain ferocity.

Corey climbed as fast as he could.

Jennifer stopped climbing and took off her boot.

She then chucked it at Romulus' face.

"Ow!" Romulus cried, using one of his hands to clutch his face.

Corey was able to out-climb Romulus by this.

Jennifer smirked and continued to climb.

Romulus rubbed his face.

"Corey takes the lead!" Chris announced, "Jennifer and Romulus are tied!"

Corey continued to climb.

Romulus smirked and managed to out-climb Jennifer.

He then swung to one side, hitting Corey.

"Ow!" Corey said, continuing to climb.

Romulus scowled.

Romulus continued to hit Corey.

This time Corey scowled.

He swung back at Romulus.

Jennifer took this to her advantage and climbed with intense precision.

Jennifer reached the gravitron first.

She ran to a padded panel and laid down.

Corey followed, but was pulled down to the floor by his ankle.

Romulus rose into the gravitron, with an insane look in his eye.

"No one is beating me!" Romulus shouted, laying on the panel.

Corey laid on a panel as well.

The entrance closed and the ride began to turn around in a circle.

Slowly at first.

Then faster and faster.

It was going incredibly fast.

Romulus' face was green.

Jennifer's cheeks were puffed out.

"I'm going to puke!" Corey cried.

The three contestants screamed.

Romulus Confessional: I have a weak- stomach-

Romulus puked.

"Ew!" Jennifer cried, as the gravitron spun the vomit in a circle.

The gravitron stopped and the puke dropped to the floor.

They stopped.

The three fell to the floor, completely dizzy.

'''Corey Confessional: Why are there three cameras? I thought there was only one!'''

Corey shook his head and walked to the crate in the corner of the room.

He opened it and pulled out a parachute.

An opening appeared in the floor.

Corey grabbed his head and jumped out.

Jennifer grabbed a parachute and followed Corey out of the ride.

Romulus was still puking.

He looked up and took a deep breath.

He grabbed a parachute and jumped out of the gravitron, screaming.

Corey pulled the cord of his parachute.

Corey Confessional: Here's to hoping that the parachute is a real parachute...

The parachute popped out of the pack.

"Phew." Corey breathed.

Romulus dove for the trampoline.

He pulled the cord.

A parachute popped out.

"Woo-hoo!" Romulus cried.

'''Romulus Confessional: I can win this thing yet! I can win it for my dad!'''

Jennifer was falling fast towards the parachute.

"Why is this thing so heavy?!" Jennifer asked, pulling the cord.

A bowling ball came flying out.

"What?!" Jennifer cried.

She fell onto the trampoline and bounced onto the motionless conveyor belt.

"Ugh." She moaned.

Corey landed gently onto the trampoline.

He pulled himself out from under the fabric and began to bounce.

Romulus landed afterwards.

"Look out!" Romulus shouted, pushing Corey out of the took off his parachute and jumped on the trampoline, landing on the conveyor belt.

At that moment, it started to move forward.

Jennifer was on her feet, ready for anything.

A fist came flying at her.

She ducked.

A fist came barreling for Romulus' feet he jumped and pulled the fist out of it's place.

He held it with his hands.

"No damaging the equipment, dude!" Chris shouted.

Romulus smirked at used it to hit Jennifer in the side of the head.

"Ow!" Jennifer cried, falling off of the conveyor belt.

Corey jumped onto the conveyor belt and was ready for anything.

A fist came for his face.

He leaned backwards, narrowly avoiding it.

Corey ran and jumped over a fist.

Jennifer got up and started the conveyor belt challenge all over again.

Romulus finished first and smiled.

"Romulus has a spot in the next part of the challenge!" Chris announced.

Corey finished next, just as Jennifer got punched in the face.

"Corey gets the last spot! Looks like Jennifer's fate is in the hands of these two boys!" Chris announced.

"Aw, man." Jennifer sighed.

'''Jennifer Confessional: The fact that I didn't get a chance to have a say in who got to be in the final two? Yeah, that hurt. But as long as Corey wins, I'm okay!'''

The two boys sat in two different booths.

In each booth was a buzzer.

One was red and the other was blue.

"What's this all about?" Romulus asked.

"This is the second part of the challenge!" Chris explained, "I'm going to ask you a series of questions about the previously eliminated contestants! Your job is to answer it first! Whoever does gets the point! There'll be eleven rounds, so a total of ten points is available! The winner is the contestant who was the most number of points by the end!"

Romulus' face was white with terror.

Corey was smiling.

'''Corey Confessional: This is great! I know a lot about the eliminated contestants! They were all my friends! Besides Rosalie and Dutch... This should be cake!'''

'''Romulus Confessional: ... I didn't bother to learn anything about anyone besides Rosalie and Dutch. I didn't think they'd be relevant after they were eliminated!'''

"Alright, first question! What is Feline's biggest secret?" Chris asked.

Romulus was white in the face.

He didn't know the answer.

Corey thought for a moment.

Then he remembered.

He hit the buzzer.

"Corey!" Chris said.

"Feline has a secret love for the boy band, Loco Motion Boys! Her celebrity crush is Funky Paul!" Corey laughed.

"Correct!" Chris announced, "Next question! How did Josiah meet Jennifer?"

Romulus didn't know what to do.

He hit the buzzer.

"Romulus!" Chris announced.

"Oh! Um- Erm-" Romulus began.

'''Romulus Confessional: What was I supposed to do? I didn't know anything about them- I didn't bother to learn anything about their lives! I am so going to fail this challenge!'''

"Romulus, I need an answer." Chris said.

"Online dating?" Romulus asked.

"You're wrong!" Chris said.

Corey smirked and hit his buzzer.

"Corey?" Chris asked.

"His mom set up a blind date. He initially only dated popular girls, but once he saw Jennifer everything changed." Corey explained.

Jennifer clapped.

"Go Corey!" Jennifer laughed.

"Correct!" Jennifer said.

Romulus growled.

"Corey has two points! Meanwhile, Romulus has zero!" Chris announced, "Next question! What is Rosalie's middle name?"

Corey scowled, "Who cares? She was an evil, manipulative follower and she didn't even deserve to-"

Romulus hit his buzzer, smiling.

Corey Confessional: The one person I didn't care about!

'''Romulus Confessional: The only person I cared about! Woo-hoo!'''

'''Romulus Confessional (cont.): Wait! I didn't meant that I care about her- I mean- I- Give me that tape!'''

"Romulus?" Chris asked.

"Eugenia! Rosalie Eugenia Ambrosias!" Romulus smirked.

"Correct!" Chris said, "Romulus has one point on the board! Chris has two!"

"Woo-hoo! Oh yeah!" Romulus laughed.

Jennifer frowned shaking her head.

Jennifer Confessional: What a tool.

"Question four! Where does Rose hail from?" Chris asked.

Chris hit the buzzer almost immediately.

"Corey?" Chris asked.

"England! She came from England!" Corey said.

"Correct!" Chris announced. "Chris has three points, Romulus has one!"

Romulus rolled his eyes.

Corey smiled.

"Next question! What was Alexis' biggest flaw in the game?" Chris asked.

Corey was thinking.

He didn't know the answer.

Romulus smirked devilishly and hit the button.

"Romulus?" Chris asked.

"She couldn't keep a secret to save her life!" Romulus announced.

"Nice one!" Chris said.

Romulus smiled.

'''Romulus Confessional: I only knew that because that's what helped me eliminate her. *laughs*'''

"Romulus has two points! Corey has three!" Chris said, "Now it's anyone's game!"

"Go Corey! You can do it!" Jennifer shouted.

"Shut up!" Romulus snapped.

Jennifer growled and tried to run to Romulus' booth.

Chef held her back.

"You're so lucky he's here to stop me!" Jennifer shouted.

"Question six! Who could Titus trace his ancestry to?" Chris asked.

Corey hit the buzzer.

"Corey?" Chris asked.

"Emperor Nero!" Corey announced.

"Good job!" Chris said. "Corey has four points, Romulus has two! Next question: Kennedy formed a relationship with which contestant?"

Both Corey and Romulus hit their buzzers at the same time.

"Titus." Corey, Romulus, and Jennifer said in unison.

"You both get the point!" Chris said, "Romulus gets three points and Corey gets five! Question eight! Who did Dutch hate the most out of this whole cast?"

Romulus and Corey both had to think.

Corey hit his buzzer.

"Jennifer and Josiah?" Corey asked.

"Nope!" Chris said.

Romulus hit his buzzer.

"Rose?" Romulus asked.

"Nope! He hated Romulus the most!" Chris said.

"What?" Romulus asked, "That little weasel!"

"No one gets the point!" Chris said, "Question nine! What was Jacob's nickname?"

Romulus hit the buzzer.

"Jake?"

"Wrong!" Chris said.

Romulus rolled his eyes.

Corey hit the button.

"Corey?" Chris asked.

"Alpha!" Corey responded.

"Nice!" Chris announced.

"Woo-hoo!" Jennifer cheered.

"It's six to three!" Chris announced, "Question ten! What was one of Cherry's causes?"

Romulus was stumped.

Corey thought for a moment.

He was about to hit the buzzer.

Romulus' eyes widened.

He could totally lose.

He was completely afraid.

Corey hit the buzzer.

"Coffee was one of them, right?" Corey asked.

"Nice! Corey has seven! Romulus has three!" Chris said.

"Corey won!" Jennifer cheered.

"No he didn't! It's not over yet!" Chris said.

"But there's no possible way that he can beat Corey now! There's only one more round and he's losing four points!" Jennifer pointed.

"If Romulus can get this question right, he'll get five points!" Chris said.

Romulus smirked, "Bring it on!"

"The final question? What was Huck afraid of the most?" Chris asked.

"Are you kidding?!" Romulus asked "That question is totally tailored to Corey; he was Huck's best friend! That's totally unfair!"

"Sorry! That's just the order of the-" Chris began.

Corey hit his buzzer.

"He was afraid that everything he believed in would be proven wrong and he would have spent 16 years of his life believing in lies." Corey said.

"Congratulations! You won the challenge!" Chris announced.

Jennifer cheered.

Corey was in disbelief.

'''Corey Confessional: I can't believe it! I won the challenge! I won! Woo-hoo!'''

Corey ran out of the booth to hug Jennifer.

He swung her in the air, "We won!"

"We won!" Jennifer cheered, "Yes!"

Romulus walked out of the booth and sat on the arena floor.

His face was in his hands.

"Corey!" Chris said as the helicopter flew over head, "Who are you going to eliminate today?"

Corey smirked, "Well this decision should be easy! Obviously Romu-"

"Wait!" Jennifer said, "Romulus are you crying?"

"N-no." Romulus said.

"He's crying! Because he lost out on a million bucks!" Corey laughed.

"That's not it!" Romulus shouted, looking up.

Tears ran down his face.

"You have no idea how hard it is! I know that nobody likes me, I know that I'm always going to be the most hated person where ever I go!" Romulus choked, "But I can't help it! I don't know how to be nice- I don't know how to get along with people! I never had a chance! My father raised me to thing that I was better then everyone else, but when I needed him he wasn't there! He was never there! I did this to make him happy- to notice me for once! And now it's all over!"

"Wow." Jennifer said, "I didn't know he had a heart."

She walked over to him and patted him on the back.

"It's okay." Jennifer said, "Corey, take Romulus. I'm totally okay with letting him go to the finale."

'''Romulus Confessional: It worked! It worked! Real emotions for a worthy cause! I'm going to beat Corey to a pulp! I'm going to win!'''

Corey thought it over.

"No." Corey said.

"Huh?" Romulus and Jennifer asked.

"I'm not taking him." Corey said, "It's a lie- It's a con."

"But he was crying." Jennifer said.

"Y-yeah. I was crying." Romulus said.

"So? You manipulate us all season and expect us to take you to the finale? Well, think again. This is for everyone you've eliminated! Cherry, Titus, Alexis, Huck, Feline! I'm taking Jenn-" Corey began.

"Think about what you're doing!" Romulus cried, his eyes full of fear.

"-ifer to the finale!" Corey said, speaking the dreadful words.

Romulus' world melted around him.

"No! No! No! NO! I can't lose! I can't!" Romulus cried as two interns dragged him to the helicopter.

"Too bad!" Chris laughed, before his phone rang.

"Wait a minute." Chris said, answering it, "This is McLean."

"Get off of me!" Romulus shouted.

Chris smirked and hung up.

"Romulus?" Chris asked.

"What?!" Romulus asked, outraged.

"Looks like the person you were trying to impress the most was the most outraged by your elimination! Your daddy cut you off from the family trust! He says you have to slum it with your Aunt Virginia!" Chris laughed.

"You mean I'm going to be- poor?!" Romulus asked.

"Yup!" Chris laughed.

"Noooo!" Romulus screamed as he was thrown onto the helicopter.

"And the final two is set! Jennifer vs. Corey in the ultimate battle of the sexes! Stay tuned!" Chris announced.

Jennifer and Corey hugged.

"We did it!" Jennifer cheered.

"Woo-hoo!" Corey cheered.
