Plot[]
Before the Intro[]
The episode begins with Flower demanding Bubble to apologize to her for not giving her immunity, despite Bubble thinking it was for killing her in "Hurtful!". Leafy then shows up and apologizes for her, and Flower accepts the apology and walks away. When Bubble asks why she did that, Leafy explains that she wanted to make up with Bubble and be friends again. Bubble declined her friendship proposal, explaining that they keep going back and forth between being friends and enemies back to back forever, and decided they should stop being friends altogether. This angers Leafy, who decides to hang out with Firey instead.
Later, Leafy and Firey ride Firey's Ferris Wheel. Firey explains that there was a waterfall on the Ferris wheel, which confuses Leafy because Firey was allergic to water. Firey then explains that he had replaced the waterfall with a lavafall, and with no way of getting out of the Ferris wheel, Leafy ends up burning to death. Cake at Stake then commences.
Cake at Stake[]
Everyone except Leafy was at the elimination area, in which Firey asks the Announcer why she hadn't returned from the Master Recovery Center. The Announcer then explains that he had to sell all the Recovery Centers due to Budget Cuts and that Leafy was truly dead, which upsets Firey a lot. Firey bets his Life Earnings that the Announcer was lying, and Announcer accepts the bet, stating that he did sell the recovery centers, and as a result, won Firey's life earnings.
The Announcer then explains that, as he had said in the previous episode if the votes went down again, Battle for Dream Island would be canceled. He then slowly counts the votes on the screen. Bubble says that the suspense is killing her, and then many commercials play. After a Blocky's Funny Doings International commercial, a commercial boycotting commercial, and a commercial about Non-Slip Shoes So Ha! by Yellow Face and the new character Purple Face, it shows that they only received 735 votes, which was 81 votes fewer than last time again. Announcer then announces that BFDI was canceled, meaning no one would win Dream Island.
Bug problems[]
As earlier, a bug attacks Flower and lays eggs on her. When she finds out BFDI has canceled, Flower becomes furious and throws the eggs at the Announcer, not knowing what they are. The eggs then hatch, releasing thousands upon millions of man-eating bugs onto the surface.
Everyone starts running in fear while the bugs chase after them, eating a large stone along the way. Meanwhile, in the Tiny Loser Chamber, Blocky overhears that BFDI is canceled, and tells everyone so, excites Pen because that means everyone will be released from the TLC. Coiny hears footsteps, thinking it is the Announcer coming to set the losers free, but it turns out to be the bugs, who eat the TLC, killing everyone inside. The bugs then kill the recommended characters, who scream in fear.
Still being chased by the bugs, the remaining survivors have to jump across a cliff to the other side of a ledge. Everyone makes it across, except for Flower, who gets hit by a meteor from her misfortune, killing her. Bubble then suggests to Firey that he should burn the bugs, but when Firey tries to, he gets eaten. Even so, the bugs burn up, but not all of them are killed, pointed out by Bubble.
The Announcer explains that it was obvious that the bugs weren't all dying, because he had built them to be strong, but then realizes that Bubble heard it. The Announcer tells her to forget about it, but Bubble doesn't and is less than pleased to find out that the Announcer built the bugs. Having realized that he had confessed to building the bugs, he pops Bubble, to keep it a secret, then presses a button entitled "Delete Bugs". All the bugs then disappear. The Announcer doesn't know what to do next because everyone has died. He then points out that David is still alive because he is immune to bugs. The Announcer then realizes that he has a David Cloner and hatches a plan.
Cake at Stake (continued)[]
10 minutes later, the Announcer is shown back at the elimination area, as he decided not to cancel BFDI. The cake was a red velvet cake, recommended by Totaldramaisland5543. 735 votes had been received. Multiple Davids can be heard in the background, representing the eliminated contestants, who randomly screaming "Aw, seriously?" after each sentence the Announcer says.
Bubble had immunity last time, as it is shown that the Announcer cloned David 20 times, 16 for the TLC members, one pumping air into his head to represent Bubble, one set on fire to represent Firey, one with petals to represent Flower, and one covered in leaves to represent Leafy. Firey is safe with 86 votes, and between Flower and Leafy, Leafy is safe with 125 votes, and Flower is eliminated with 524 votes. Suddenly, everyone comes back to life, as Leafy states that they had faked their deaths. A montage of every elimination is shown, showing that Flower was the first and last person to be eliminated before the Finale.
Flower refuses to be eliminated and uses a mirror to deflect the lasers that teleport people to the TLC. One laser hits a bush which confuses Tennis Ball, another hits the sun which makes Snowball say that it's so bright, the 3rd one hits the TLC itself, teleporting back where it was, and the last one travels around the world and hits Flower from behind, eliminating her for good. The voting is between Bubble, Firey, and Leafy, with the person with the most votes winning Dream Island. If there are at least 1,000 votes, Jacknjellify will make the second season of BFDI, as it states in the end.
Votes[]
735 votes were cast during the 10-day voting period.
| Icon | Contestant | Votes | % | Total Votes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Firey | 86 | 11.70% | 261 |
|
Leafy | 125 | 17% | 516 |
|
Flower | 524 | 71.29% | 1,049 |
Stinger[]
The Announcer tells the final three that he forgot to give them rewards, which happen to be anything they ask for. Leafy wishes for world peace, and the Announcer says, "Wish granted," but doesn't do anything as he thinks the world is peaceful enough. Bubble's wish is for some Yoylecake, which the Announcer denies because it doesn't fit in the show's budget. Finally, Firey demands that the Announcer give him his life's earnings back, but Announcer doesn't because he already spent it on new personal recovery centers for himself, Firey, Leafy and Bubble.
Firey is grateful for the Announcer's deed, but suspects that he didn't buy them because he cares about them, which the Announcer confirms. Instead, he bought them so he could kill the contestants and they could be brought back. Unbeknownst to him, though, Flower's Announcer Crusher crushes him. After this, a rapid killing spree similar to the last episode ensues, this time with the Announcer and the contestants killing each other.
