After Kain Henderson quit Jetset, the Jetsetters he left behind were surprised by it.

Blane: "Maybe. Not sure if I would've quit if I were him, but I guess he didn't really fit in here..."
Salma: "I would not. I mean, come on, this is a game after all."

Olive: "Guys, I actually feel... schuldig... er, no, hmm, wrong, about his leave. We said mean things to him in the bubble bath."



Edmund: "Great... My ally just quit. What a.. a... a quitter! I'm not sure how quitting was supposed to help him win but it's definitely not gonna help his game at all. He's not going to get any information now that he's quit and he's probably going to go and get himself eliminated next now... Wait... Oh right. That's what quitting is... Oh well. I'm safe at least but alone.




There was little time for moping though, as the host were proud to show off their new purchases...

Jetsetters: "Good morning girls!"
Min Hee: "Hi! Well, as you all might know, I and Odessa went out to shop for a washer yesterday and, as you all really must have noticed by now, err, we kinda went overboard with it, and... well... err..."
Odessa: "Enuff said. The message's crystal clear by now."
Min Hee: "Well, it wouldn't hurt pointing out our redecoration."





Connie: "Ooh, lovely!"
Diane: "It will do the trick for sure."
Edmund: "A 5 out of 10? Probably."
Diane: "Shhhh..."
Edmund: "What, I'm voicing my opinion."





The Challenge of the day was again demanding for lots of clear communication... But if the Jetsetters could get it right this time?

Jason: "Finally, because we just picked 5 as a group, we have to get 0 questions correct for a clue. I'm unsure what the clue is for, but I'm not thinking real clearly. Hopefully, this all makes sense to you. If you have questions, please ask as we're allowed to talk about it all right now."
Diane: "Well, did the explaination have to be that long?"
Min Hee: "30 seconds left!"
Diane: "Fine, I'll write my things down."





Hector: "Wait, I'd like to bring in Olive."
Odessa: "Uh uh, you need to bring down someone from another Cabin."
Olive: "What has happened so far to you? How did you get here?"Connie: "Hmm, wait... Hector did not answer those questions written on the whiteboard.​ Which makes him kind of suspicious?"
Olive: "I have no idea what you are talking about. I've just been sitting here with nothing to do."




Hector: "Well, first things first: we basically are all taking turns filling this whiteboard out with our information. Afterwards you need to pick someone else to fill it out with their information."
Edmund: "Hold it. Min Hee, am I allowed to do more on the board thingy? Like can I write some ideas and things and deduce some answers? Or do I have to only write stuff for myself?"
Min Hee: "Sure, you can write anything you want."
Edmund: "Great!"





HEALTH-E: "So, if you are 21, then we are supposed to end up in the same Cabin."
Salma: "Great!"
HEALTH-E: "That is not so great, as this means that you will have to join Connie. Then I must proceed picking another person and tell them to switch with you, so that you can switch with the person who is sharing the Cabin with me."
Salma: "Err... I couldn't really follow that..."





Ultimately, the Challenge failed, and everyone was pointing fingers around again, stirring up some rivalries...

Jason: "No, I didn't know either! That nasty woman next to me is just pointing fingers."
Diane: "That nasty woman, please show a little more respect please, was talking about gentlemen. As in, plural. Blane, as the person who was told straightly from the hosts, must've been aware of it."
Salma: "Blane?"
Blane: "Man, why do you have to blame the Blane?"
Hector: "Well, maybe because Blane is to blame?"
Blane: "Yeah, lets turn the tables around: none of you thought of calling me back down and check up the rules, huh?"





Salma: "Okay, calm it guys, I want to have a word about the bandwagon on number 5. Any input whatsoever?"
Jason: "Other than that I also found it questionable, no."
Blane: "Well, I could barely follow it at all. Who were on the wagon though?"
Olive: "Hector, Diane, Connie and me. But Edmund was the one to start it."
Edmund: "Yes, of course! I thought 5 would be the best number for the group!"





But the crowning moment of clashes has to be Hector's fall-out with HEALTH-E...

Hector: "LEAVE! ME! ALOOOONE!"
HEALTH-E: "Oops. I am ever so sorry. Do you have something to hide?"
Hector: "You should STOP giving people heart attacks for NO GOOD REASON!"
HEALTH-E: "Activate emergency-defibrillator!"
Olive: "O mijn fucking God..."





Min Hee: "Oh, yes. As we all know, HEALTH-E is a robot and if he would make contact with the pool, he would shock and lethally electrocute everyone in it, like poor Olive Kropp who was swimming at the moment... "
Odessa: "In fact though, HEALTH-E has an auto-shut down system, for when he comes close to water. He couldn't have harmed a fly by falling in. Plus, Hector realized he did something wrong."
Captain Dockhatt: "Yar, I've seen that. I saw him running to the Diary Room about half an hour ago. Poor landlubber looked very... guilty... Me says he's staying."
Odessa: "2 votes to stay is a majority! Problem solved."





How will the Jetsetters cope with the eventful afternoon? Will the current events put their toll on the results of the Ranking? And who will be Eliminated next in the middle of the heat?

20 DAYS, 12 PLAYERS, 1 CRUISE
THIS IS

Diary Room
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Jason: "As for the last challenge, well, it was a wreck from the beginning. I’m not sure why Blane didn’t tell me more information, but I just didn’t really understand. Heck, I don’t even remember what I put on the application! It was truly fiasco city. A tough challenge in its truest form."




Olive: "We completely failed at this challenge. Like, completely. It was bad. I had no idea what I was doing or what the goal even was for most of the challenge to be honest. When it ended I was like, "Is it over? I hardly even knew it had begun!" But getting the clue was cool. I've been doing some snooping but haven't found anything."



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Mission Room
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


*Someone knocks the door*

Olive: "Hmmffeeeephhmmm....."




Blane: "Well... You or me going in?"
Salma: "I'll take care of it."




Salma: "Pssssst... Olive."
Olive: "Hrrrmmmm..."

*Olive begins to snore*

Salma: "Olive, we're going to look for the clue, remember?"




Olive: "Mmmhuh? Clue?..."
Salma: "The Clue from the Challenge. It must be hidden somewhere."
Olive: "... Oh, the Clue!"
Salma: "Psssht. Please don't talk too loud, the others might wake."
Olive: "Oh, er, sorry..."




Olive: "Hi Blane."
Blane: "I've checked the Diary Room already. I couldn't find anything..."
Salma: "Too bad..."
Olive: "What' now?"



Salma: "Well, the total ship has 6 floors. Min Hee and Odessa's floor, the kitchen floor, the deck, this bedroom floor, the Spa and the bottom floor with the... facilities, I think."
Blane: "Then we could better split up. I'll take the bedrooms and the decks."
Olive: "I' take the kitchen."
Salma: "Well, that leaves me with the bottom 2 floors, probably the biggest 2. Any help?"



Blane: "Okay, so if Olive does the kitchen floor and tries to peek at the host loft, I'll meet her on the deck. Then we can share the spa if you leave it for last, Salma."
Olive: "Well... I think it sounds good..."
Salma: "I guess we have a plan."




Salma: "Well then, good luck yo."
Olive: "Succes!"
Blane: "Shhht."
Olive: "Oepss..."







Blane: "Well, it's been almost a week since Janna left..."




Blane: "Hmmm, where to start?"




*Blane notices the claw machine*

Blane: "Oooh, now that would be a great spot to hide something in."




*Blane moves a few toys in the claw machine*

Blane: "Perhaps if I dig deep enough..."



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
15 minutes later
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Fruity Bathroom
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


*Olive tries the taps*

Olive: "Nope, not here either..."




Olive: "Well, did I overlook a spot? Or... Wait a little..."




Olive: "... Now where's KT! when you need her..."




Olive: "Never mind..."




*As Olive leaves though, the light of the rising sun causes the Clue to light up on the window...*

Olive: "Blane, I'm coming."



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
15 minutes later
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Gym
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Salma: "Well, nothing in the coding of this thing either..."




Salma: "I guess I'm not in the right spot..."

*Salma goes upstairs. She begins checking out the lockers there*




Salma: "Nope..."
Olive: "Hoi Salma."
Salma: "Oh, found anything up there?"




Olive: "No, we haven't find anything."
Blane: "You?"
Salma: "Negative as well. Sorry."
Olive: "Oh man..."




Blane: "Don't worry, it should be in here then."
Salma: "We might be close then, guys."
Olive: "Really?"
Salma: "But we might need to go planning our strategy as well."




Blane: "Hmm, how do you mean?"
Salma: "The game is progressing, we're getting close to the halfway point and we should be prepared for it."
Olive: "Hmm, okay."




Salma: "One thing I'd like to discuss again are our side alliances. I was planning to gather Jason and Hector and chat on the Challenge. How about you?"
Blane: "I'm still hanging out with Connie, but it's not always game talk. Just once in a while."
Salma: "Aha..."




Blane: "When we do though, it's mainly on Elimination days."
Salma: "Like today..."
Blane: "Yes. She is always worrying about the next victim."
Salma: "Okay... And Olive, how are things between you and HEALTH-E?"




Olive: "... Eeeuh... We grew out of eachother..."
Salma: "Really?! But why?"
Olive: "Eh, it begon at the incident of Kain's."
Salma: "Because he quit?"




Olive: "Noooo, before that. The incident with HEALTH-E showing me his underwear."
Salma: "HEALTH-E showed you Kain's underwear?! Awkward!..."
Olive: "..."
Salma: "I guess we can better start searching again."




Blane: "Yeah. If you go and check the dressing room, Olive and I will go for the rest."
Salma: "That'll work."
Olive: "Lets go!"




Blane: "Well, where to start?"
Olive: "Saunas?"
Blane: "Sounds fine to me."





Blane: "Although, it might be handier for us to search individually as well."
Olive: "Well... I kinda don't want to search... I want to talk."
Blane: "Oh... Okay, sure then..."
Olive: "Ssssht... It's about Salma..."




Blane: "Oh. Lets get seated here first then."




Blane: "So, what's exactly with Salma?"
Olive: "... I think that she might not... is trustable..."
Blane: "Why not?"
Olive: "I felt something in my water when talking to her."




Olive: "She was very pushy when she was asking for our deals... But she told nothing about her bond with Hector and Jason."
Blane: "True... But does it mean that she's the Assassin?"
Olive: "No, she is a too fanatic candidate. I think that she's using us for information."
Blane: "... That's a harsh accusation you got there. We never asked for her information either."




Olive: "... You're right. But my underbelly's still feeling."
Blane: "But we should begin being careful, you're right on that. Like Salma said, we're close to the halfway point. And lets go find that clue again quick, or Salma might catch us here."
Olive: "Ehhm... Sure..."




* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Witch Room
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *



Salma: "Well, the bad news for me is that I've got little information. I only got HEALTH-E and Olive in the endgame, so I think I depend on the details from you."
Jason: "Blane cutting out important information has been thrown in the group already. Diane just did her thing and didn't actively try to make me angry."




Hector: "Actually she was not suspicious."
Salma: "I agree. She doesn't seem to be the Assassin. She does her best too much."
Jason: "Yeah. I also kinda hope she isn't. That'd mean she'll be here for a while."




Hector: "That's the 4th person down. 6 to go."
Salma: "And tonight will be the 5th."
Hector: "We better get prepared again..."




Jason: "Hey guys, I have an... interesting question for you..."
Salma: "Oh, fire it!"
Jason: "Who are your main suspects as of this moment?"
Hector: "On the count of 3?"




Jason: "1."
Salma: "2."
Hector: "3."




Salma: "Edmund."




Jason: "Connie."




Hector: "Salma."




Salma: "- Wait, whaa?"




Salma: "... Can I ask you why you're telling me?"
Hector: "... Why not?"
Salma: "Because if I were the Assassin, I would aim to Eliminate you now."
Hector: "That's true."




Salma: "There HAS to be a psychological game played here. It has to be... I better be careful, cuz I'm not aiming for second place or something."




Salma: "..."
Hector: "..."
Jason: "Okay, another topic please? How about that gigantic elevator fall out? I mean…wow. I’m so glad I stayed at the back of the elevator. I think Edmund is still wheezing."




Salma: "Heh, I'm glad I simply took the OTHER elevator. I had enough space in there, mwahahah."
Hector: "Poor Edmund... Heheheh."
Jason: "Heheheheh."

*The three continue to laugh*



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Cloudtop Room
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


*Connie peeks a little through her eyelashes*

Connie: "Err... Can I look?"
Diane: "You're free to look, my dear."




Connie: "Oh my."
Diane: "Well... How do I look?"
Connie: "You look... really good."




Diane: "Ah, thank you."
Connie: "But, what do you think for yourself?Do you need a mirror?"
Diane: "No, I'm just fine, thanks. I do hope they won't start thinking I should change my name to Grey or something."




Connie: "Nooo. I really don't think so..."
Diane: "It is a teensy little large for me, I must confess, but they shouldn't notice th-"

*Diane's cellphone starts to ring. Again.*

Diane: "Oh dear, if it's that Brockefellow at it again..."

*Diane accepts the call and presses her phone to her ear*




Taiha Anderson: "GREEEEEEEY!!!!!!!!!!"
Diane: "EEK!!!"

*Diane drops her cellphone*




Connie: "Wh- wh- what was that?"
Diane: "... I don't want to know, for heavens sake... Now w- where's my phone?..."
Connie: "Err... It kinda fell... on the floor..."
Diane: "Oh my..."




Diane: "If the screen's broken..."

*Diane picks her phone up. The screen is indeed broken*

Diane: "Typical."
Connie: "Oh no... I'm so sorry."




Diane: "It's no use moping over it. I should just go cook us some breakfast."
Connie: "Okidoki."

*Connie follows*




*Blane nods to Connie*




*Connie nervously smiles and shrugs back to Blane*




Diane: "Oh... Good morning..."
Jason: "... Hi there..."




Connie: "Well, er, what are you cooking, Jason?"
Jason: "Me? Oh, nothing special, just mums special breakfast waffles. The recipe is a family secret though."
Diane: "Oh well, how interesting."




Jason: "I can’t believe Hector almost pushed HEALTH-E into the water. I don’t want that to be me and Diane, so I have to be extra careful with my attitude and anger. I don’t want to leave. I mean, I do, to get started on Jana and I’s life, if she’ll have me. But, that can wait a little longer. I’d love to win and have some money to start said life. Thank goodness Salma was there to get Olive out of the water. She saved her life! I’m not sure how I feel about Odessa and Min Hee allowing Hector to stay. I mean, it was nice of them, but that’s one more person that could have been eliminated as a possible assassin."




Jason: "..."
Diane: "Hmmm..."




Connie: "So, errr, have you people heard of what happened yesterday, with HEALTH-E and Hector?"
Jason: "I do."
Diane: "I even saw the thing happening. I say they should've kicked him off."




Jason: "I... well..."
Connie: "I don't exactly know if it's fair to kick him off. What if he knows the Assassin's identity?"
Jason: "In that case, we would lose a threat..."
Diane: "Now that's the spirit!"




Jason: "Whoa?!"
Diane: "It's true. It's important to seperate your personal views from the game itself."
Jason: "Oh... kay..."
Diane: "Remember what I said when Kain left?"




Jason: "Kain leaving is the coward’s way out. I mean, seriously. If he can’t take what he dishes out, then he shouldn’t dish at all."
Diane: "Indeed. On a completely different note, you could use some fresh clothes."
Jason: "... Speaking of clothes, is that Connie's dress you're wearing?"
Connie: "Yup! I'm really glad with the washers. Kudo's for that!"




Jason: "I’ll say that the ladies of this ship have definitely spruced things up. Not like I notice these things much, as a simply country guy, but it does seem a little more colorful. Plus, I don’t have to smell anymore. Min Hee and Odessa really knocked it out of the park to get those on board. It’s a good thing, too, because Olive’s night gown was really beginning to smell and Connie’s dress. Well, don’t get me started... Maybe if I smell nicer, Diane will be nicer to me. Hmm….I’ll have to think about that one."




*ponders a moment* 

Jason: "Or not. I don’t need her to like me. Once I leave this boat, I won’t have to talk to her again. Hopefully. She’s definitely not invited to my wedding with Jana. Honestly, why do I care what she thinks of Jana. I mean, I know people won’t always like me or Jana or whomever. I think it is because this love I’m feeling is just so near to the surface and new. I think I’ll just ignore Diane unless I absolutely have to deal with her. I can’t for her to be ejected, though."

Modern Room
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


HEALTH-E: "Wow. This room looks very well."
Edmund: "That's the good taste an interior decorator posesses. Like moi!"
HEALTH-E: "If I was forced to switch rooms with someone else, I think I would switch with you. I have seen Kain's room as well and it was cold."




Edmund: "Well, maybe if Odessa and Min Hee could let me use some of my magical skills there..."
HEALTH-E: "I did not know you have magical skills. Are you a wizard?"
Edmund: "... Never mind. Please take a seat!"




Edmund: "There you go."
HEALTH-E: "I believe now is the moment that we should discuss who the Assassin could be. Kain and I often used to do that as well."
Edmund: "Speaking of him, who were his main suspects?"




HEALTH-E: "He was suspecting Connie and Blane. He also had a rivalry with Roxanne, but she has been Eliminated already."
Edmund: "Hmm, Connie and Blane, you say?"
HEALTH-E: "Yes, I do. He also began considering to suspect Hector, as I told him he did not use the telescope in the signalling Challenge."




Edmund: "Well, it sure is getting interesting now you've mentioned Hector. I think he's also a force to be reckoned with. What exactly has moved him into pushing you yesterday?"
HEALTH-E: "Is it not obvious? The pushing motion he released upon me was caused by contractions of his muscles."
Edmund: "... I was actually referring to; how to say this?... Why has he pushed you?"




HEALTH-E: "I am so sorry for misunderstanding you. Yesterday, Hector was praying for something and I was interested in it. He wanted me to leave him alone, but I kept asking him questions. In the end, I began thinking he was hiding something and then he pushed me."
Edmund: "Interesting. So he might be hiding something... Now what would that be?"




HEALTH-E: "I asked him, but then he pushed me."
Edmund: "HEALTH-E, my friend, you still have a lot to learn. Now, listen close to me: what do you think could be the biggest secret of it all?"
HEALTH-E: "... Maybe he is the Assassin?"
Edmund: "Exactomundo! What else?"
HEALTH-E: "I think you might be right."

Blane: "Oh hey there again, little girl."
Lenka: "Yip? Yip!"




Blane: "Aww, come here you. Come to the Blaney!"
Lenka: "Yip yip!"







Blane: "Who's a good girl? You are!"
Jason: "Oh, hey Blane. Hey Lenka."
Blane: "Hey."
Lenka: "Yip yip!"




Jason: "Having fun with the girl again?"
Blane: "Yeah, I think she's my closest friend on this ship."
Lenka: "Rawrawrawrawrawrawrawrawrr!"
Jason: "I can understand, she's the only one here who for sure can't be plotting to send you home."

*A nearby toilet flushes*




Blane: "You got a solid point there. You can't trust anyone else out there."
Jason: "True. And yet, you must trust the others."
Lenka: "Rawwwwrrrrrawwwr."
Blane: "Speaking of trust and Lenka, I thought you didn't trust her. You have chickens on your farm, right?"




Jason: "It’s about time that Lenka and I finally bonded. I think once I figured out she wasn’t your normal fox, she realized I was an animal person through and through. I probably still wouldn’t trust her around my chickens, though. It’s tough to take that instinct out of a predatory animal."
Blane: "Lenka comes close though."
Jason: "Hmmm."




*The door to the bathroom opens. Diane notices Jason*

Diane: "Oh..."




*Diane quickly struts away to the Library*

Jason: "Really?..."
Blane: "Hmm?"




Jason: "Diane burns my cowboy boots! I can’t believe her. I know, I know. I need to stop getting so upset by it."

*Jason takes a deep breath*

Jason: "I do believe Connie has helped me to understand the problem, though."
Blane: "Well, if anyone can help you out with it, it must be Connie. She's got no bad bone in her body."




Jason: "Ah, thanks man."

Back Deck

Salma: "Wait a sec... Is that..."




Salma: "Gavin Pinkerton... The failed plastic surgeon from Bridgeport. So, he decided to strike down here after the surgeon scandals..."




Odessa: "Jetsetters, it is time for the Ranking! When your name is called, you go and enter the Theatre! Salma, you are first!"
Salma: "Ugh, there goes my great scoop..."

*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*

Salma: "Because so far, it still holds up. None of them have been eliminated yet."




*HEALTH-E puts in his Ranking*




Diane: "Well, today I'll be frank. I think these people around me are suspicious and I do not trust them. Not one bit, and therefore, if this was that Big Brother show I hear about in society's chit chat, I would send them home as soon as they could squeal 'Diane, we love your cooking.' Toodles."




Jason: "These are who I think are most obvious in their sabotage. But who knows, I could be going home next."




*Hector puts in his Ranking*




*Connie puts in her Ranking*






Edmund: "I clearly just feel these people are untrustworthy and I can see things happening and going wrong partly or entirely because of their doing."




*Blane puts in his Ranking*




Olive: "This challenge had sabotage in it. A lot of people did really poorly who shouldn't have."

First Floor Corridor
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Olive: "Man... I'm nervous for the Elimination... Maar dat maakt niet uit, ik heb trek in een koekje!"

*Murmurous talking comes from up the stairs*




Olive: "Wat was dat?"

*The talking continues. Olive decides to take a peek*




Captain Dockhatt: "Yer want to watch Abnormality tonight?"
Odessa: "Of course! It's the live eviction. I do hope Wayne finally gets what he's had coming..."
Olive: "Hmm?"




Odessa: "After he kicked out Chandrika last week, I definitely want to see him go."
Min Hee: "It was a shame yes, but the good thing was that we could get her to explain the Bottle Shooting Challenge."
Odessa: "I guess so... But I'd rather see Chandrika in there. Anyway, it's Wayne going tonight. And then Carlito!"




Captain Dockhatt: "Well, if yer wanna watch that tonight, I guess y can. Me thinks I'm gonna go and catch up with some few old folks 'round town."
Odessa: "Noo, we're gonna have an Abnormality party! With everybody, including the Jetsetters!"
Olive: "What?"




Min Hee: "Who was that?"
Captain Dockhatt: "Well well well, looks like we got us a boarder here. Come in here, show yourself."




Odessa: "Oh, Olive, what were you doing up there?"
Olive: "Euuhh... I wanted to ask a question."
Odessa: "Well, ask, and you will be answered."




Olive: "Oh... Abnormality... Chandrika was not planned to teach us how to shoot arrow and bow?"

*Min Hee and Captain Dockhatt look at eachother*

Odessa: "Wait, how do you know that?"
Olive: "... Internet?"




Min Hee: "Okay Olive, what were you doing up there and this time, please tell us the truth."
Olive: "... Okay, I was listening to you talking... I heard you over Abnormality."
Random Production Member: "Miss Kropp was there only for a minute indeed."
Min Hee: "Ah, thank you."




Odessa: "Thank you for telling the truth, but listening on production talks is against the rules, so we must give you a strike this time."
Olive: "What?"
Min Hee: "Fairness protocol, you know."




Olive: "I.. I understand..."
Min Hee: "It's a good thing we weren't talking about the Assassin or something, or else we might've had to remove you from the show."
Olive: "I understand."
Min Hee: "Now, you might want to leave, since we still have other things to discuss as well."

*Olive leaves*




*Olive sighs*

Olive: "Why me?"




Hector: "Oh, hey Olive. Are you alright?"
Olive: "Oh... Good afternoon Mr. Dolfinne."




Hector: "I really need to talk to you, about what happened yesterday."
Olive: "Aha."
Hector: "Lets have a seat outside."







Hector: "There we go."
Olive: "So, what do you need from me?"
Hector: "Well, I want to apologize for what happened yesterday."
Olive: "Oh, thank you."




Hector: "I mean, I nearly got you killed yesterday, and I'd not be surprised if you are angry at me, or upset. I understand if you still are."
Olive: "Well, of course I forgive you."
Hector: "Really?"
Olive: "I am not one to hold a grudge."




Hector: "Phew. That's a good trait to have."
Olive: "I guess so..."
Hector: "Are you okay though? You're not looking too happy."
Olive: "Well, something just happened."




Hector: "Hmmm."
Olive: "I walked per accident into a production talk. They gave me a strike for that." 
Hector: "You too?"
Olive: "Wait, you walked into a production talk as well?"




Hector: "Huh? Oh no, I was talking about the strike."
Olive: "Oh, of course. Silly me. Sorry."
Hector: "I got that for you-know-what."




Olive: "Oh dear... Heheh, maybe it's a Clue to you! Maybe you are the Assassin."
Hector: "How do you mean?"
Olive: "Oh, what happened yesterday and all. Metaforisch."
Hector: "Ooh, metaphorically, hahahahahahah."
Olive: "Hahahah."




Hector: "But seriously though, Olive... Look straight into my eyes..."
Olive: "Yes..."
Hector: "I am not the Assassin. Trust me."
Olive: "Okay... Then I can tell you: I'm good as well."





* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
In the evening
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Odessa: "Jetsetters! Please all gather in the Theatre! And don't forget to put on your fancy clothing! We're gonna watch something there tonight."



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Theatre
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *



Odessa: "Welcome, welcome, welcome!"




Min Hee: "So, looks like some of you got some really lovely clothes there. What do you think yourself?"
Captain Dockhatt: "Don't look at me, I'm merely background filler."




Edmund: "Of course I'm wearing my best clothes for an occassion like this!"
Diane: "... No comment."
Edmund: "What? A man like me should look refined 24/7, don't I?"
Diane: "Absolutely no comment."




Jason: "Well, looks like farmer lad is covered by two lovely ladies."
Olive: "Ooh, thank you."
Salma: "This dress is a special one of mine."




Hector: "I really like your scarf, Connie."
Connie: "Oh... Thanks, hehe..."
Hector: "I think it really matches your eyes, right?"
Connie: "Oh, err..."




Blane: "So, without further ago, we should go in?"
Odessa: "Well, lets go indeed then."
HEALTH-E: "Okay."










Odessa: "Everyone has a seat?"
HEALTH-E: "Yes, every person on the Jetsetter is sitting here."
Min Hee: "Just in time as well, look!"




Even Stevens: "Hello world! Welcome to Abnormality- Season 4! This is the place where drama happens, friendships are broken and enemies are produced!"




Connie: "Diane..."
Diane: "Yes, my dear?"
Connie: "I'm getting the vibes again... I think someone's gonna be Eliminated right here..."
Even: "You've called the police? Why have you done that?"


*Everybody watches the Episode. Connie's wrong; nobody gets Eliminated... Or is someone???*

Even: "Okay, that is the end of voting. I am now tallying up the votes."

*The silence is tense.*

Even: "Okay, okay! We have our result."




Even: "I can now reveal, with a vote of 3-2, the housemate who will be leaving the house tonight is..."




Odessa: "Please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne, please be Wayne..."
Everybody else: "Sssssht..."

Odessa: "WOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
Diane and everyone else: "SSSSSSSSSSSHT!"




Odessa: "WAYNE IS GONE! WAYNE IS GONE! WAYNE! IS! GONE!!!"
Min Hee: "ODESSA! Behave yourself a little!"
Everyone else: "..."
Odessa: "Whoopsies, errheheheh... Sowwy guys..."




Salma: "Hey, what is that?"




Even *with a progressively more deformed voice*: "It is time for you to leave Wayne. How are you feel................"

Olive: "What is this?"
Edmund: "I'm not a television geek, but that thing is clearly broken."
Hector: "This cannot be good."




Connie: "Oh no... I knew it..."
Diane: "Connie, you okay?!"




Even *with a progressively less deformed voice*: "It is time for you to leave..."

*The static becomes less, slowly clearing the Elimination image on the screen...*

Even: "Blane..."




Blane: "Oh man... I guess it's time for me to go..."
Olive: "Oh no, man, not you too!"




Min Hee: "Blane, it's time for you to leave."
Blane: "Oh man oh man oh man. This truly sucks..."




Connie: "Blane!"
Min Hee: "?"




Connie: "Why you?"
Blane: "Pssssst... Connie, you'll be fine..."
Connie: "Oh man, you can't go now... You can't."




Blane: "Connie, everything is going to be okay. Diane's still here."
Connie: "....."




Diane: "Connie, I'm here."

*Connie whipes away some tears*

Connie: "O- okay..."




Blane: "I'll think of you every day, okay?"
Connie: "Okay..."




Odessa: "Blane, the time has come to leave the Jetsetter."
Min Hee: "Please follow me out."




Odessa: "Do you have any final goodbyes for the surviving Jetsetters?"
Blane: "Of course, yes."




Blane: "Well, it's been a fun ride all along. You all are amazing and I am glad I got to play the game alongside you. I'll miss you all and good luck with catching the Assassin. Oh, and Odessa, please give Lenka a final hug from me, okay?"
Odessa: "Okay."




Blane: "Well, there I go then."
Salma: "Goodbye Blane!"
Edmund: "We'll see eachother at the finale!"
Hector: "You were a worthy player to be with. Good luck!"
Connie: "I- I'll miss you!"




Odessa: "Jetsetters! Can I have your attention for a moment?

As of now, the current winnings for the Jetsetters are $112.000, all earned during the Arrow Challenge. A lot of money also was thrown into the Assassin's hands though, $288.000 to be exact. And then there's the Painting Challenge. Since Blane just left us, Jason is the only one left in the game who made it to the top 3 back then. If Jason is NOT the Assassin, that means you've earned an extra $100.000."




Odessa: "This afternoon, was the point in the game where you were in the game for exactly 1 week of time. In the beginning of the game, you were with 12. A week later, you were with 9. And after 2 weeks of time in the game, there will be only 5 out of 12 left to play in the game..."




Odessa: "Out of the 4 who would not venture through 2 weeks, Blane was the first to go. That leaves 3 others out of you to not make it to that point. The numbers of yours are crumbling down and as the game progresses, you will feel that more and more."





Odessa: "So, a good personal goal you could set for yourselves is the Final 5. But how do you convince the Assassin that you are the right person to take with them to the Final 5? That's something I will leave up to you. You're free to go now, and remember: it'll only get harder and harder from here on out."

Min Hee: "Well, lets get straight to the point, what happened?"
Blane: "Well, anything could've happened, but yeah... I think I did do a good job at making myself suspicious so others would put me in their Rankings instead of the actual Assassin. I don't really know then why they would give me the boot instead."




Min Hee: "Perhaps you were getting close to the truth yourself?"
Blane: "Perhaps. But that would mean others were at the least just as close as myself. Maybe not. Maybe there was just some sick psychlogy thrown in, just to throw the others off guard. Eliminating me would result in a shocker, I saw."




Min Hee: "So you think that it was all part of the big plan they have?"
Blane: "Likely."
Min Hee: "Another question: what do you think is the one thing you will miss the most?"




Blane: "Oh man, that's a hardy. Lemme think... Hmm, I think I can't just pinpoint that to one thing, so I think I'll go with... The overall rollercoaster you're thrown in. With all it's facets, from the big looping to the exact angle of a corner."
Min Hee: "You were a fantastic player to have on the show."
Blane: "Thank you."




Min Hee: "Well, I hope you get home safely."
Blane: "I do hope so as well, hahah."
Min Hee: "And the best of it all; you will be brought to the airport by a luxurious Ferrari."
Blane: "Oh, cool!"




Min Hee: "The 4th person out: Blane Scales!"
