Hi I’m frothing at the mouth rn but I’m thinking about how Dakota taking over as the host for Treasure Island of Dr. McLean instead of mutating would actually improve the season on so many levels so here’s my concept for the episode long post not proofread:

•First of all I’m keeping Anne Maria in the running because her elimination was BS and this is gonna make more sense just wait. She is on Jo’s team now though

•Everyone wakes up and is like “wtf. Why isn’t Chris waking us up. Where’s the food.” Also they’re all recovering from the mine incident still and worried there’s going to be a repeat. Jo especially feels bad about voting off Brick for saving everyone, and Anne Maria is upset at Jo and Lightning for voting off Brick for saving her friends (specifically Cameron who she sees as a younger brother and Mike who she still thinks is Vito). Also theres soooo much tension between Mike and Scott it’s unreal they are both ready to kill.

•Dakota emerges and is like surprise fuck Chris I’m host now it’s what I deserve after the intern work. And she makes them do like menial labor to create her brand like idk building her studio and having them make her a pina colada. Everyone is annoyed. Zoey is this close to snapping but still wants to be nice and w start getting like allusion to commando zoey.

•So Anne Maria, Jo, and Zoey team up to sabotage Dakota to get her to leave, meanwhile Mike and Scott reluctantly agree to work together to get Sam from the Playa Des Losers across the lake and use him as a bargaining chip. I also think it would be cool if we got some foreshadowing to Mike’s juvie skills he learned from Mal here and Scott was really impressed by them.

•Anne Maria and Jo teach Zoey how to toughen up, and Zoey makes them realize they don’t have to fight all the time, and they all become good friends.

•Cameron and Lightning are the only ones left and Cameron suggests they put their power together to stand up to her. Lightning takes pity on him and they do, I think this will make Cameron’s “betrayal” later sting more and make the finale more meaningful because now theyll have a past.

•Dakota finds out no one is doing their work and goes fucking bonkers and decides to sic all the mutant beasts on them.

•Jo makes it up to Anne Maria and everyone who Brick saved and also kind of Brick by following his advice of not leaving anyone behind and getting everyone into a safe spot and leading them to fuck up the mutants. I just think these kids deserve to beat up some weird monsters they’ve had a rough time

•Meanwhile in the closet Chef and Chris have a heart to heart and Chris realizes he’s been too harsh this season and they escape and try to save the kids

•The kids saved themselves though and Dakota is even more bad and she’s having her little power struggle childhood trauma moment, and Sam to the rescue, he convinces her she’s enough even if she isn’t famous and she feels empathetic and surrenders. They’re both taken to the Playa Des Losers together.

•Meanwhile, Anne Maria is facing elimination because Lightning found the immunity idol instead of Scott, he thinks Jo is his friend right now, and Jo isn’t voting for herself obviously. Mike wants to tell Anne Maria that he’s not Vito before she leaves, and he tells her about his DID, and she feels lied to and kind of cries about it. Scott is feeling conflicted because he’s never wanted friends before but he thinks Mike is cool now, and he finds out about Mike’s DID because he overhears Anne Maria crying, and he decides he’s gotta get rid of Mike like right now because he can’t deal with emotions rn.

•Jo and Anne Maria have a heart to heart that is subtly gay but still 2010 children’s TV, and Jo says she’s going to miss her and Anne Maria decides she doesn’t need Vito in order to feel loved and not lonely. Cameron and Zoey also see her off and Zoey apologizes for being so jealous, Mike can’t face her but she like pats him on the back, Scott gives her some like ominous warning about Mike. Lightning is in a similar situation to Scott with Cameron and this is where the misunderstood villain arc begins.

•Also, I’ve decided: Jo is going to be still Jo but like more empathetic, so Up Up and Away is a little better and she and Cameron are gonna be genuinely friends but she gets voted out by Lightning and Scott while the other votes are split. She’s gonna give Cameron a morale boost when she leaves because he’s going to try and vote for himself in this one since everything is too much for him rn

•Also Lightning is still Lightning he just seems more sad earlier and we get more hints of his father earlier like the reason he’s so aggressive now is because being with Cameron reminds him of friends his father made him drop as a kid, it’s like amity blight-esque

•Also Scott still sucks but he has a reason now mainly so All Stars Scott makes more sense

•Also Scott’s gonna get fucked up by Fang still but like, it’s not gonna be trauma chair bad and no one is gonna laugh at him, it’s just gonna be like the extreme karma that fully makes him change. It’s less mean spirited

•Overall I’m just giving the show the Steven Universe treatment sorry lmao
