Total Firey Island[]
In Crying Contest, Firey is concerned as "water is his poison". When the challenge starts, he continues with this, focusing on avoiding everyone's teardrops so that he doesn't get extinguished.
Similarly, Eraser also doesn't cry, describing that crying is for wimps. These thoughts might be shared with Pencil, who doesn't participate as well for unexplained reasons. The team ends up losing in heavy due to these three refusing to cry; and Eraser gets the boot.
Firey pushes Coiny off the titular beam in Balance Beam, sabotaging his own team.
To stay on the balance beam, Golf Ball suggests holding hands to stay sturdy. However, this strategy works against them, as when Bubble is pushed, the rest of the Trouts fall as well. They lose the challenge and Golf Ball is eliminated for her bad strategy.
The Murderer Trouts get their first win in Mile Run, in part to Coiny being able to jump off of Spongy. The team all cooperated at beating the race and was the quickest overall.
In Dodgeball, Bubble accidently hits Spongy in the back of the head. When the ball goes for Woody, he gets too scared and Coiny quickly hits it for him.
Later in the strip, when it's down to only Woody and Coiny on the Trouts, the ball goes for Woody, who is too scared to hit it again. They lose, and missing the winning shot gets him enough votes to be eliminated.
Pencil and Firey each get to the bells in Rope Climb. But when Coiny tries to reach and ring his bell, a Yelling Beaver cuts it.
In a turn of events, this sabotage backfires and results in a disqualification for the Beavers, leading to another victory for our Trouts.
During Dodgeball, Bubble has surprising skill and is able to knock out enemies Blocky, Tennis Ball and Match.
Firey on the other hand has mixed productivity; slapping Coiny, but near the end of the match pulling through to get Tennis Ball and Ice Cube. The Murderer Trouts end up winning the match.
In the titular Spelling Bee, Firey, Coiny, Bubble, Spongy and later Pencil are the representatives. However, Spongy is uncooperative, saying "meh" when called to the front and choosing to drop out.
Firey, Bubble and Pencil eventually spell words wrong, and are disqualified. At this point in the match, Coiny is the only Trout left, and after a long time falls asleep. This means he is disqualified and the Trouts lose.
Spongy gets the most votes and is eliminated for not even trying at the start.
In Breath Holding Contest, Firey and Coiny bicker and fight. This isn't what makes them lose though, as Bubble breaks first[1][2]. Firey gets the most votes and is eliminated.
Bubble wins the first round in Dice!, rolling a 5 to her opponents 3.
Pencil mourns that her friend Match is on the opposite team, and loses the second round rolling a 1. An especially talkative Coiny pulls through round three, and Bubble makes it through round four (with an unknown roll).
Round 5 is Bubble vs Tennis Ball (a Yelling Beaver), and wins for the team rolling a two.[3]
Skipping ahead unshown books, in Jumbo, Pencil seemingly beats the spelling competition again and jumps over a hurdle, winning the $100 000.

- The second was when the Yelling Beavers's die score originally beat Bubble's, but it rolled over and landed on a lower number.
