With the upcoming individual phase nearing, Jetsetters are doing their best to prepare for the events...

Oliver: "No need to. Iris is partnered to her, so I'll get intel through her. Meredith also seems to.. well, not hate Euphelia, so that's where you could get some scoop, Lucas."
Lucas: "... You got me convinced there."
Oliver: "Good. Do you take this deal too Ethan?"
Ethan: "I'm in too!"




Kiki: "Yeah, about our teamwork. We could try and build an alliance after the duo twist is over."
Euphelia: "Hmm... I'm sorry. I don't think it's going to work."
Kiki: "Wait, why not?"
Euphelia: "I... we're not on the same wavelength together, Kiki. We're working together now because my brother said so, and I accept that, but if it's up to me I don't think we'd ally well."




Freya: "I'm glad that we could fix things between us before... you know, tomorrow..."
Ethan: "I know. There's still a good chance that Lucas will be the one leaving tomorrow though."
Freya: "Yeah. All we can do is wait and see..."
Ethan: "I feel that Lucas still has some potential to grow as a person here. I hope that doesn't affect my odds."




Not all Jetsetters were solely focused on their game after the splitups though, some were also spending time on their personal quests.

Oliver: "Well... I searched the entire room and found nothing... Guess Benjie still has it... But how do I contact him?.."




Meredith: "The next person to bother me will get a dose of THIS."




The Challenge of the night was a big contrast with all the small deals and splits going on - the Jetsetters had to work together in order to steal some objects from the Mafia back.

Milly: "Okay, so, here's how this is going to work. There are 4 stolen artifacts hidden somewhere on this floor, and we're gonna steal them back. We don't know where they are though, so, uh, you have to look around and discover their location and then bring them back to this room. Each one you return here is worth 40.000 Simoleons for the Jetsetters."




*The light bluecyan door unlocks after Iris and Meredith return to the switch*

Oliver: "Thank you for returning. We are now going to enter the light blue door and take our artifact."




Iris: "We could try and wait until someone else can get to the light blue switch?"
Meredith: "... That sounds like a plan."




Lucas (through the portophone): "Houston, we have a problem. We need you all to stand on the pink switches."
Kiki: "Welp, there goes our orange switch plan."
Euphelia: "..."




Freya: "Seriously? They're leaving us behind like this?"
Ethan: "No Freya, look!"
Ethan: "The camera's gone! We can backtrack to where we came from!"




After all was said and done, the Challenge was a huge success!

Milly: "Cookies aside, you managed to bring in 4 out of 4 Artifacts. That means you earned §160.000 this Challenge. And that also means, that one of you has earned a Clue to the Assassin's identity. You can all keep the artifacts until tomorrow morning. One of them has the Clue written on it. So, keep your eye on it... And that Clue could be very useful for you all. Tomorrow will be your final duo Ranking I've heard. After that it's each and every one of you on their own on the hunt to the elusive Assassin."



After the final Challenge with duos, the time it'll be each and every twin on their own is nearing closer. Alliances and deals for the upcoming game changer are being made, as some emotional scenes are about to take place too. The Jetsetter is swirling in a whirlpool, but who will be the first one to be swallowed by it? Will it be Ethan or Lucas?

20 PLAYERS, 10 TWINS, 1 CRUISE
THIS IS








* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Bedroom Hallway
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


*Oliver softly knocks on the door to the Rose Bedroom*

Oliver: "Iris? Are you in there?"




Iris: "Yes, I'm here."
Oliver: "Can we talk about things for a bit?"
Iris: "That's okay, come in."

*Oliver puts on a bit of hand sanitizer on his hands*




Oliver: "Still not a big fan of those hanging plants..."
Iris: "So, what do you want to talk about?"
Oliver: "Couple of things, some strategy, but also a side thing. A side quest, to add a term to it..."
Iris: "Hmm, what's that side quest about?"




Oliver: "I've talked to Captain Dockhatt a few days ago, about an old locket that he lost, and Benjie happens to have it right now."
Iris: "That's a huge coincidence."
Oliver: "I know.. He likely brought it with him for the show, but I can't find it anymore - he must have taken it back with his Elimination over a week ago."




Oliver: "I'm not allowed to contact him though due to the rulebook we signed. So I really need to find a way to ask him about it without asking him directly."
Iris: "Hmm... good question. You want to contact the people at home."
Oliver: "Yeah, that pretty much sums it up."




Iris: "... Do you have any other relatives living at home, besides Benjamin?"
Oliver: "Yeah, my parents, and my other brother. And Benjie's boyfriend Victor... Who actually found it..."
Iris: "Do you think you're allowed to contact them instead of Benjie?"




*The implications suddenly settle in Iris' and Oliver's heads*

Oliver: "Iris, you're a genius!"
Iris: "We should ask the hosts first, just to be sure."
Oliver: "Salma got away with chatting to her girlfriend last season, now that I recall it."




Iris: "Hmm, but then again Shay wasn't a former player."
Oliver: "I'm on it!"
Iris: "Excellent. So, you wanted to talk about the game strategy too?"
Oliver: "Oh, that's right, we haven't done that for a while."




Oliver: "With the duo twist ending today we should try and keep our alliance strong."
Iris: "We should.. Out of everyone left in the game I trust you the most to not be the Assassin."
Oliver: "I trust you too. If it's you after all then I'll probably lose all my trust in humanity."
Iris: "Oi, don't say that. We should exchange our notes on our new duo partners though. Luckily for me that happens to be Meredith."




Oliver: "Yeah, I don't think the others will get much intel out of her. What are your thoughts on her?"
Iris: "Hmm, she's mostly just complaining and cursing all over the place. But she has a couple of suspicious actions dotted inbetween. But I don't think I'll form an alliance with her next. Lucas?"
Oliver: "Lucas.. he didn't talk to me a lot during the time we were partnered. So while I do have some ideas I can't tell a lot on him..."

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Iris: "Answers from above? Are you fucking kidding me? That's so obviously me, I'll be on everyone's hit lists now! And since I'm not the Assassin, it'll be even fucking worse. Well played, you grubby little sack of scum."

*Iris sighs, groans, growls and is generally frustrated*

Iris "Ah well, let's see if we can twist this obvious clue into being someone else. If I... nah, makes no sense. How about... Nope! Ooh, what if I... wait, no... if it works like this...
Holy shit, I've cracked it!"



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Art Gallery
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Euphelia: "Hmm..."




Euphelia: "Apples and grapes, that's not too hard to sketch myself, is it? I should try to replicate it."




*Euphelia hears some noises coming from the Karaoke Bar*

Euphelia: "Hmm, what's that?"







Euphelia: "Oh, hi there."
Lucas: "Hey."
Lucas: "Playing Cowboys Versus Aliens 4D. Wanna try?"
Euphelia: "... Nah, I'm not a gamer..."




Lucas: "Shame... I thought I might give it a try, it could be my last day here."
Euphelia: "We should work on Operation Ethan, remember?"
Lucas: "Yeah, we should... But it's up to the Assassin only. No Rankings or anything that can save my ass, it's only the Assassin's choice. And to be honest that feels a little unfair to me."




Euphelia: "There's gotta be some way to influence the Assassin though?"
Lucas: "We don't know for sure who they are though. So it might come down to popular opinion, and Ethan's clearly winning on that. And I'm so set on winning out on this one for once!"
Euphelia: "Hmm, so he usually wins in competitions?"
Lucas: "Yeah, he's the alpha jock who scores well in sports and with people. I'm just the geeky, studious gay wallflower at whom my parents are mad just for being that way. So he's more 'fortunate' than me in a couple ways."




Lucas: "So I constantly feel like I have to prove myself to the world, like 'hey, I'm here too, I matter too!'. Doesn't help he's so casual about it."
Euphelia: "Who's actually the oldest of you?"
Lucas: "I am, in fact. By 30 minutes But most people assume Ethan is, because of his build and attitude."
Euphelia: "You too?"




Lucas: "You're the oldest too?"
Euphelia: "By 20 minutes. So, if I can beat Eugene in this game then you can certainly beat Ethan!"
Lucas: "Hmm, we should make a plan to make sure it'll happen. A PR-campaign in my favour?"
Euphelia: "What kind of player would the Assassin keep around?"




*Ding-ding-ding-ding!*

Odessa (through the intercom): "I like such power talk! Let's sing a song to let your spirit out!"
Lucas: "But- but, I'm close to the record!"
Odessa (through the intercom): "That sucks for you then."




*The arcade machine resets*

Lucas: "No, my score!"
Odessa (through the intercom): "Chop-chop, the podium's over there."
Euphelia: "Some people..."




Odessa (through the intercom): "That wasn't so hard, was it?"

*Euphelia and Lucas are silent*

Odessa (through the intercom): "I'm sure you'll feel better after singing this song!"
Lucas: "At least none of the others are watching this..."







Lucas: 
"My mind is racing, but my heart, it beats faster
I'm in control, commander and master
Lady Fate, creating disaster
But she ain't the boss of me"




Lucas: "Uh-uh"




Lucas: 
"Head-on collision with a catastrophic setback
Makes you either wanna get lost, or get back
I choose the latter; let's not forget that
We hold the cards this time
So there's no need to bitch or whine"




Lucas: 
"There's no way
I'm gonna take another option
No way I'm gonna settle with a loss
No way I'm gonna sit around and watch
There's no, no way"




Lucas: 
"There's no way
You're gonna find me in the background
No damn way you gonna see me satisfied
No way they're ever gonna make me back down
No, no way"




Euphelia: 
"Home field advantage
The upper hand is ours
So the game is on!"




Both: 
"The clock ticks
But we've got our tricks
To fuss with and fix what wrong"




Lucas: 
"Let's wake up and go, guys
Take out the bad guys
Break out your mad eyes"




Both: "Yeah!"




Both: 
"We'll take it on together,
We're stronger and we're better
And if there's a problem"




Lucas: "Ha!"
Both: "Whatever!"




Both: 
"There's no way
We're gonna leave it up to chance
There's no damn way we're gonna go without a fight
No way you gonna see us on our ass
There's no, no way"




Both: 
"There's no way
We're gonna settle with sorrow
Leave right now if you think this ain't real
Today, not waiting for tomorrow"




Both: 
"No, no way
There's no way
No, no way
There's no way
No, no way
There's no way"




"There's..."




"No..."




"Waaaaaa-aaaaay!"

Odessa: "..."




Meredith: "What are you staring at me!?"




Odessa: "I've seen the footage of last night's Challenge and I noticed a lot of hate of you going towards Milly."
Meredith: "Yeah? So what?"
Odessa: "Remember when I asked you to take those comments back during our argument a few days ago?"




Meredith: "GET AWAY FROM ME YOU PSYCHO!!!"
Odessa: "Nah, I think I'm fine standing here until you take back what you just said about that."
Meredith: "FUCK OFF!!!"
Odessa: "No!"





Meredith: "Seriously, that's what it's all about?!"
Odessa: "Yes, it is. Don
Meredith: "Wel, you know what I think, bitch?!"




Meredith: "I'm entitled to my own opinion and you have no fucking right to tell me what or who I can like or dislike!"
Odessa: "Hey, don't boop my nose!"
Meredith: "I'm not gonna hold my mouth back anymore because your sore little ego can't handle me."
Odessa: "Your 'own opinion' is literally discrimination, and I do NOT tolerate that, understood?!"




Meredith: "You don't know a damn thing about me. I've been through enough shit and experience to KNOW I'm right!"
Odessa: "Yeah right. What happened, you lost bingo to a Werewolf or something and you're jealous?"
Meredith: "No you dumb fuck! You really don't know a damn thing about me!"




Odessa: "And if you keep acting up like that I don't even want to know a damn thing about you!"




Odessa: "All I have to know is that you're a dumb bigot who'll probably end up lying on the sidewalk if you don't chan---"




Meredith: "TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW YOU LITTLE MORON!!!"
Odessa: "Whoa?!?!"
Meredith: "MY MOTHER WAS KILLED THAT WAY YOU FUCKING SWINE!!!"




Odessa: "JESUS, sorry! Didn't know that!"
Meredith: "Well now you know, take it BACK!!!"
Odessa: "Only if YOU take back everything you said about Werewolves!"




Meredith: "FUCK NO... My mum was murdered by a Werewolf and you're just as psycho as him!"




Odessa: "I'LL SHOW YOU PSYCHO YOU CRAZED BITCH!!!"





Meredith: "ARGH!!!"
Odessa: "RAAAAHH!!!"




*Meredith and Odessa are screaming and yelling during their fight*




Odessa: "I'M GONNA POP YOUR HEAD OFF WITH MY BICEPS!!!"
Meredith: "WHAT'S FUCKING WRONG WITH YOU?!?!"




Kiki: "Hey, what's going-..."




Kiki: "Oh my god, Odessa and Meredith?!"




Kiki: "Gotta text Min Hee right now."




Ethan: "What is all that noi--"




Ethan: "What the-"
Iris: "Ethan, what's going on?"




Iris: "..."




Iris: "... Nope."




Meredith: "YOU DON'T KNOW A DAMN ABOUT HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOUR OWN MOTHER IS MURDERED RIGHT IN FUCKING FRONT OF YOU!!!"




Odessa: "MY MOTHER LEFT BEFORE I EVER KNEW HER BITCH!!!"




Odessa: "MY FATHER WAS THE ONE MURDERED UNDER MY NOSE!!!"

*Meredith perceives a flash from Odessa's eyes as the latter tackles her again*




Meredith: "Oh my god NOO!!!"

*Meredith is grabbed by her stomach and mouth*

Meredith: "Lmme gooo!"




Ethan: "What's wrong with both of you?!?!"
Odessa: "Hi'm dhe hosd, hanss off me!"




*Meredith and Odessa still claw at eachother*

Meredith: "M' fadher leff fahr a dyeenie!"
Odessa: "M' baybesidder was murd'red doo!"




Meredith: "Youre a big behby!"
Odessa: "Shadduhp!"




Min Hee: "AHEM!"




Kiki: "Thank goodness you're here!"
Min Hee: "Thanks for texting me Kiki. And thanks to you and Ethan for intervening."




Min Hee: "Odessa Wolff..."




Min Hee: "You're G R O U N D E D !"





Odessa: "Bud--!"
Min Hee: "I let some things slide with just warnings, I've been lenient with you the past weeks. But now it's about time for a big time-out for you."
Odessa: "Ah you kiddin mhe?!"




Min Hee: "And for you Meredith... I'm going to check out the camera footage of this fight. If you are the one who physically attacked Odessa first you'll be disqualified and kicked out of Jetset at once, no if, no buts, no mercy."
Meredith: "Hmph! Se'iouhs'y?!"




Min Hee: "Odessa. I'll have a talk with you tonight. Meredith, if you're still in the game tomorrow I'll also have a talk with you then."
Ethan: "What do we do with them now?!"
Min Hee: "Bring Meredith to her room. I'll take Odessa with me."

Ethan: "Well..."




Ethan: "That was quite a scene in there..."
Kiki: "Thank god it's deescalated."
Freya: "I can barely believe it - Odessa and Meredith in a fight..."




Freya: "... and that's coming from Meredith's nemesis from day 1 onward."
Ethan: "Thank goodness we could pull them apart, I don't want to know what would've happened if they were too strong for us to..."
Freya: "I know... Well, I know some tricks that could help pull them apart."




Ethan: "Being a Fairy does help. Thank goodness Meredith didn't grab her wand... Or Odessa wasn't transformed for that matter."
Kiki: "Exactly... I am now going to say something that may sound very weird at first..."




Kiki: "But with what happened today I'm feeling happy from the bottom of my heart that Jayda's been Eliminated already. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if Jayda got seriously hurt because of a silly show we got in. Or worse."
Ethan: "That's actually really deep."




Kiki: "Yeah, I do know that I'm sometimes overprotective of her, but in this case I think Jayda would agree she's safer at home, with dad and Tomaz.. her boyfriend."
Freya: "Yeah, I think she'd agree that it's safer there than here."
Kiki: "We've been through a lot together as a family. I've talked about some things with you Ethan."




Ethan: "Yeah, we talked a bit about our lives in China."
Freya: "Wait. I must have missed that. Now you got me all curious."
Ethan: "I can still recall we were swimming."
Kiki: "Yeah, we were.. I don't mind sharing my life story with you."




Kiki: "Me, Jayda and my parents have always been close and tight as a family, even though we worked hard and still always struggled to make ends meet each month. Until one day, our rent was due but we didn't have enough, so they sicced an eviction notice on us."
Freya: "Oh no..."
Kiki: "Life was hard, but we worked hard and one day we could afford a new place to call home."




Freya: "So you've been homeless for a while?"
Kiki: "Yeah, we have. I'm not wary of talking about it though, it taught me some important values I still hold to my heart."
Freya: "Like hard work and the importance of your loved ones."
Kiki: "Yes, those values. I do love this game and want to stick for as long as I can, but I'll be happy once I'm home and can be with Jayda and dad again."




Freya: "Aww, you're a very sweet person Kiki."
Ethan: ".. Hmm, only Jayda and dad, where's your mum?"
Kiki: "... She's dead... She's been dead for some years now. Her health has been declining, but we couldn't afford the medical bills for any treatments. It was really hard seeing her decline as time passed by..."




*Kiki sheds a small tear as she talks*

Kiki: "... but yeah. It's the system. I'm sorry, I still get a little sad about it when I think about it."
Ethan: "... I'm sorry Kiki.. First time I'm hearing that as well... It's not fair."
Freya: "Kiki Dee, you're a strong girl, your family sounds like a great group of people, they deserve better than that."




Kiki: ".. Thanks, Freya. I'm really glad you two made up yesterday. Now we could've had this talk."
Freya: "Heheh.."
Ethan: "Yeah, I'm glad we did. If I leave tonight, and I'm putting emphasis on the if, then we're at least ending on a good note."




Ethan: "But I'm absolutely not planning on leaving tonight. Lucas is a competitive one, so we gotta work hard to keep my ass save and in the game!"
Kiki: "Yeah!"
Ethan: "If it's him or me leaving I'd rather stay myself, I'm 100% sure he'd say the same about me."




Freya: "So we'll need to work on a battle plan."
Ethan: "Yeah, how can we convince the Assassin to keep me in over Lucas?"
Kiki: "I think they're most likely to look at statistics from you two over the season."
Ethan: "So we better recap everything we've done so far."




Freya: "You've been working with both of us as duo partners, who has Lucas been working with again?"
Kiki: "Euphelia before the duos were rearranged, I suspect the two of them are still close together. I actually approached him to talk about her, when she came in herself."
Ethan: "That's really interesting.. After the switch his partner was Oliver, right?"



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Bedroom Hallway
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Ethan: "That was... heavy but interesting. Anyone around here?"

*Ethan skims the Bedroom Hallway. He notices there's nobody and opens the door to the Tropical Bedroom*




Ethan: "Guys, you're in here?"
Oliver: "Not too loud please, nobody knows of our alliance."
Lucas: "Hi."
Ethan: "Hey there."




Ethan: "Mind if I sit next to you?"
Oliver: ".. To be honest I do mind.. Personal clean space, you know."
Ethan: ".. Ooh right, you're the guy who likes cleanliness."
Oliver: "Yeah, so because this is my room please be careful with all the stuff you touch."




Oliver: "Okay, so we should exchange intel on the women before they call us for the Ranking, got anything on Euphelia, Lucas?"
Lucas: "Well, ahem... Odessa forced us to sing a motivational duet together."
Oliver: "... Seriously?"
Lucas: "I know, she deleted my Cowboys Versus Aliens 4D score for it."




Oliver: "Unbelievable..."
Ethan: "I just came from a talk with Freya and Kiki. Freya and I made up at last."
Oliver: "Ah, that's good."
Ethan: "After that fight between Odessa and Meredith the talk went to that for the most part, though."




Oliver: "Oh... Got anything of their thoughts or suspects going on?"
Ethan: "... I can't shake off the feeling that they don't fully trust our alliance though."
Oliver: "Hmm, do you think it might be you they don't trust, or eachother?"
Ethan: "I dunno, sometimes I can't shake off the feeling that they aren't fully open about their game."




Oliver: "Ethan, if you survive tonight you should work on that, the more we can get the better."
Ethan: "Oliver, I'll do my best."
Lucas: "About Euphelia again, I do think she might find Meredith a little suspicious too."
Ethan: "Hmm, that might be..."




Lucas: "And I can't help but find Euphelia suspicious as well, and I've worked with her the first half."
Oliver: "I agree that she's very closed about herself."
Lucas: "So if I survive tonight I could get more intel on her, we do work together well."
Oliver: "That's good. The more intel we can get the merrier."




Ethan: "Doing your best to score brownie points, Lucas?"
Lucas: "... how do you mean?"
Ethan: "We all know it's you or me going tonight."




Lucas: "Yeah, I know. But I just said that Oliver isn't my main suspect. So if he's not in charge of the Elimination, why would I try to appeal to him?"
Ethan: "Gossip goes fast on the Jetsetter."
Lucas: "You got a point."




Oliver: "You're right in not suspecting me. I'm not the Assassin, I don't like doing the dirty work. Both literally and figuratively."
Ethan: "... You're on my clear list for now."
Lucas: "By the way Oliver, do you have something to tell us about Iris?"




Oliver: "It's been a while since we talked, but I visited her today."
Ethan: "And did she say something useful?"
Oliver: "She said some interesting things about Meredith, turns out she's been doing some shady moves while she's being.. Meredith."
Lucas: "Like what?"




Oliver: "She didn't specify anything... I'll have to chase after that more."
Min Hee (through the intercom): "Jetsetters, it is time for the Ranking! One by one, I will call your names. When your name is called, you go and enter the Theatre."
Ethan: "... Well."
Lucas: "It's you or me now, brother."

*Please play this music to set the tone for the Ranking*




Meredith: "So are you still wanting to put ___?"
Iris: "I don't know... Convince me about the others. We'll see after that."




Oliver: "Some other people seem to be onto ___. And based on what I gathered from my previous pairings, the Assassin is most probably not ___ or ___."




Freya: "I still think ___ is the one most likely to be the Assassin."




Kiki: "Let's discuss! Who are our suspects?"
Euphelia: "___, ___ and ___. I think ___ could also be one."

Meredith: "Ugh, fuck."







Euphelia: "Hi Meredith."
Meredith: "Oh, it's you. Hi."




Euphelia: "You get to stay after that fight with Odessa?"
Meredith: ".. How did you know we got into a fight?!"
Euphelia: "Rumours spread fast on the Jetsetter."



Meredith: "Thank fuck Odessa tackled me first. That literally saved my ass in this game."
Euphelia: "So, you'd been disqualified if you striked first?"
Meredith: "Yeah, how did you know?"




Euphelia: "Logic. Hannes got a strike when he punched you, so violence against the hosts will be treated as more severe."
Meredith: "It's not fair. Hannes just gets a silly strike, but I immediately get threatened to be force-eliminated. And Odessa? She's just 'grounded' now. I always get the shit end of the stick."
Euphelia: "Min Hee should've send her home with Ethan or Lucas, whoever's going tonight. But.. speaking of being treated unfair, I think that's exactly where your problem lies."




Meredith: "Hey, what are you saying?!"
Euphelia: "When you and Melinda grew up, did you feel like Melinda was the favourite of your parents?"
Meredith: "Okay, you're getting creepy. How?!"




Euphelia: "Remember that time back in China, when I offered you to draw something? And you literally said..."

Meredith "And everyone always says Melinda's better at that shit, so no thank you."





Euphelia: "Or remember when you got in a fight with Min Hee's mother?"
Meredith: "..."




Euphelia: "And today part of your argument with Odessa was about your parents..."
Meredith: "... Yes..."



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


Odessa: "I am feeling very angry and venomous at a certain foulmouthed witch who has been misbehaving for pretty much the entire season and got into a fight with me today. So, Meredith's mother was killed by a Werewolf, and now she's blaming Milly and me just because we're also Werewolves?! That's just BullShit with capital BS! I mean, one of my parents, my father, was also murdered in my teens! Everyone who followed the news back then knows what happened! And do I blame anyone who happens to be named Diana for it? OF COURSE NOT!"




Odessa: "It- it's ridiculous! I mean, we even had a Diana playing this season, and I did not hate on her because the bitch who killed everyone on the Luxury's Lap carried the same name. Or, now that I think of it, we also had a Diane playing last season. Did I hold any grudge against her because her name is similar to Diana? Of COURSE not! I am reasonable! I don't blame people for things they haven't anything to do with! So Meredith better learns that as well soon, or else she'll get HELL from me to pay."




Min Hee (through the intercom): "Odessa, you are going to treat Meredith with respect just as anyone else on the boat. If you trigger Meredith one more time I have no choice but to send you home and finish hosting this season solo."
Odessa: "What?!"
Min Hee: "This is me speaking to you as a mother. Not as a coworker."
Odessa: "Oh god... Kill me now please, quick and painless. Hello? Mr Watcher?! Talking to you!"



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Meredith: "So... there mum was, on the street with her guts torn out by that fucking Werewolf, and me and Schmelinda kneeled next to her."
Euphelia: "..."




Meredith: "I can still recall her final words so well... "Melinda, I am so proud of all that you have accomplished, I-I love you...and..."..."
Euphelia: "... And what?"
Meredith: "Ding dong. The witch was dead... But from that moment onward I knew Melinda was the favourite all along. Our entire lives she's gotten more praise and encouragement from her... Ugh..."




Euphelia: "........ I know how it feels to be overlooked by your mother..."
Meredith: "... Thanks..."

*It's silent between the two for a while*




Meredith: "I never said this to anyone before, but... Sometimes I wonder who my father is."
Euphelia: "... Ahuh..."
Meredith: "... But I guess they never kept track of him..."
Euphelia: "You could try and look him up in the civil records."




Meredith: "Ugh... ......"
Euphelia: "I'm sorry, I just suck at talking about emotional stuff..."
Meredith: "..... At least you're trying I guess. For all I know mum and.. Melinda never listened. But still..."

*Ding-ding-ding-ding!*







*A faint thunderclap is heard in the background. The music starts playing*

Meredith: "Sometimes I really miss her. And want to talk to her again..."

Meredith: 
"Oh..."




Meredith: 
"It's just one more day
No one said there would be rain again
Won't blame it on myself, yeah
I'll blame it on the weatherman"




Meredith: 
"Get away for a while
Here I am out on my own again
Won't blame it on myself, yeah,
I'll blame it on the weatherman"




Meredith: 
"Standing on the shore (ooh)
Calling out your name (ooh)
I was here before (ooh)
I could see your face"




Meredith: 
"Only clouds will see (ooh)
Tears are in my eyes (ooh)
Empty like my heart (ooh)
Why do ya say goodbye-yyee? (bye)"




Meredith: 
"The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)"




Meredith: 
"Alone I can hear
Hear our song
Playing for me again
Won't blame it on myself, oh no
Just blame it on the weatherman"




Meredith: 
"Standing on the shore (ooh)
Calling out your name (ooh)
I was here before (ooh)
I could see your face"




Meredith: 
"Only clouds will see (ooh)
Tears are in my eyes (ooh)
Empty like my heart (ooh)
Why do ya say goodbye-yyee? (bye)"




Meredith: 
"The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)"




Meredith: 
"Maybe it's too late
Maybe it's too late to try again (aah, aah, aah, aah)
Maybe I can't blame (maybe I can't blame)
Maybe I can't blame (maybe I can't blame)
Maybe I can't blame the weatherman"




Meredith: 
"The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)
The rain goes on (on and on again)"





Meredith: 
"Oh, blame it on the weatherman"




Min Hee (through the intercom from afar): "Jetsetters, it is time for a group dinner. Please make it to the Dining Area as soon as you can!"
Meredith: "Ugh.. I'm absolutely not in the mood to see those bastards."
Euphelia: "We better do so though. I think they'll Eliminate someone there..."

Min Hee: "Jetsetters. And I'm adressing Ethan and Lucas specifically..."




Min Hee: "Served on the table are two delicious pizzas. They have been cooked in an Italian kitchen, by a true, as they call it here: Capocuoca Maestra, or a Master Chef for those who don't speak Italian. But before anyone can go and cut a slice, we have an elephant in the room we need to adress..."




Min Hee: "Ethan and Lucas, the Assassin has chosen one of you to continue competing in the game. The other one has been targeted by them to be Eliminated. When I give you the signal, you can step through the archways."




Min Hee: "The effects that will surround you then will show you your fate in this game. One of you will get bright confetti, celebrating their survival in the game. The other will sadly be surrounded by fire, representing your place in the game bursting up in flames."




Min Hee: "The person who gets Eliminated will say their goodbyes, grab a slice of this freshly baked pizza, and then will go with me as I escort them to the luxurious Ferrari that'll depart to the airport."




Min Hee: "So guys. Without further ado, on the count of three..."








Min Hee: "One..."





Min Hee: "Two..."

Min Hee: "Three....."

Lucas: "---..."




Ethan: "I fucking knew it..."




Min Hee: "Ethan..."
Ethan: "Yeah, I know..."




Min Hee: "The Assassin chose you to leave indeed."
Ethan: "Yeah - Grab pizza and say my goodbyes."
Min Hee: "... Yeah, that's the idea."




Lucas: "Oh my god, can't believe it."
Ethan: "Well.. I still recall my first meal on this show was pizza. Bittersweet bookends."




Freya: "Seriously? We just made up after our little argument, and now they're kicking you out!"
Kiki: "Yeah, this really sucks. We'll miss you Ethan. And we're gonna kick that Assassin's ass for you!"
Ethan: "Thanks girls. You go kick their ass indeed."




Lucas: "In the end Operation Ethan worked out for us."
Euphelia: "Apologies to our aiblings. But it's a game in the end."
Lucas: "I'm absolutely proud of making it this far in."




Ethan: "Got any goodbyes for your brother, Luke?"
Lucas: "I, Lucas, am still sad that you're going, but it does mean I get to stay.. So it's a bittersweet goodbye, I guess... I promise I'll play for both of us."
Ethan: "You better do, bro."




Min Hee: "Ethan, it's time to go."
Ethan: "Yeah, coming!"
Iris: "Now it's just the seven of us..."
Oliver: "It's each for their own now."

Min Hee: "Ethan, what do you think has given Lucas the upper hand today?"




Ethan: "I guess the Assassin thought it was my time to go rather than his. Doesn't really help that the Assassin wasn't bound by our Rankings in making her choice."
Min Hee: "The Assassin could've made their choice based on your previous records. Don't you think that got into play as well?"
Ethan: "Hmm... that's a good point... I'd rather think that's the case instead of sheer personal bias."




Min Hee: "That would be the less of two evils indeed. Another point: you called the Assassin a 'her'?"
Ethan: "Yeah, I trust that it's not Lucas. And I don't think it's Oliver either. Which leaves only the five ladies who could be the Assassin. And like I said, the Rankings didn't help me cross out suspects."
Min Hee: "That's an interesting theory. Only the finale will tell you if you're right or wrong."




Ethan: "Yeah. I guess I'll see you again then."
Min Hee: "You were a strong player to have on board this season, Ethan. Have a save ride back home!"
Ethan: "Yeah, thank you."




Min Hee: "The person to leave as unlucky 13th: Ethan McCloud."

Min Hee: "Thanks for waiting on me before getting started on the pizzas."
Oliver: "They're cold by now."
Min Hee: "Sorry. I got a small announcement to do before we can start eating..."




Min Hee: "... And that announcement is about Lucas' position in the game."
Lucas: "Oh..."




Min Hee: "Lucas, in contrary to all other Jetsetters sitting at this table, you just lost your twin brother without the two of you gaining any knowledge out of your Rankings. You will get a reward for both you and Ethan making it to the final 8 to compensate for this information disadvantage."




Min Hee: "Your reward is as follows: from the start of the individual phase on, you will count for two players during Rankings and Eliminations. This means that you will get to submit two Rankings every Ranking ceremony, up until the Assassin Eliminates your first life."
Kiki: "Whoa?!"
Freya: "Nooo..."
Iris: "That's really powerful.."
Meredith: "Seriously!?"




Min Hee: "After your first Elimination you'll stay in the game, but with just 1 Ranking per ceremony."
Lucas: "Whoa... Thanks, Min Hee.. that's really gotta sink in for a bit though."
Min Hee: "If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Lucas: "... Thanks..."




Oliver: "Congrats there, Lucas. That's a very powerful ability you got there..."
Meredith: "Hmph, I hate you. That should've been mine."
Lucas: "... Thank you Meredith, I already knew that though."

Min Hee: "Hey..."
Odessa: "Oh. Hi."
Min Hee: "... I know Meredith's been a pain in the ass lately, but-"




Odessa: "A pain in the ass? She's outright racist the entire ride!"
Min Hee: "... She is, but-"
Odessa: "And I'm finally deciding to stand up against her, but you undermine my authority as a host!"




Min Hee: "I'll have to stop you right there, there are other ways to not tolerate her behaviour than outright violence."
Odessa: "But nothing helped so far! We've tried and she's still acting like a jerkass! You're being too soft and lenient, Min Hee! And she might actually cause a zombie outbreak or something!"




Min Hee: "Odessa, I've made my statement to her as well after your fight with her today!"
Odessa: "Yeah right, 'a talk tomorrow'. Like that's gonna change her at all."
Min Hee: "We can find out what makes her tick, and talk in on that."




Odessa: "Ugh, am I the only person being realistic here? She hates your guts too."
Min Hee: "Odessa, no. I'll talk to her tomorrow and I will do my best to get her attitude changed!"
Odessa: "Ugh... Is Lenka there? I need a frickin' hug right now."




Min Hee: "Lenka? She's mostly at your side, right?"
Odessa: "... Haven't seen her all day. Last time I saw her was... yesterday, right after we woke up."
Min Hee: "... Oh dear, I haven't seen her since either."
Odessa: "... Oh god no..."
