Introduction
(Sports commentator-style desk, with Artie, Manny, and Mike.)
Manny: And welcome back to Animation Survivor 2, the recap. Episodes 3-5 brought some much needed tension into the Japanese tribe, and with Hey Arnold dominating the picture, the South Park kids were forced to take action. Will it work? Watch and find out.

Episode Three- Day Seven
(Shot of the Japanese camp. It is in pristine condition, everything is in perfect working order, and it just looks beautiful.)
Kari: Tai told me about all the mistakes they made last time. How they got really lazy early on because they didn’t take the Americans as a serious threat. And now that we’ve been given a chance to follow in their footsteps, we aren’t going to make the same mistakes.

Sakura: Digimon’s one of the few shows that are back for a second run, and the experience that was passed down to them is priceless.

(Shot of Li and Davis fishing)
Davis: Let’s see, no matter how much food we have, we have to try to get more. We’re always going to be hungry, so the more we have, the more energy we get for challenges.

Li: That makes sense. What else did they say?

Davis: Um… make sure you know where your hat is at all times.

Li: Oh… right.

Davis: Don’t "oh right" that! It’s important!!

Li: Sure… of course. Even when you don’t wear a hat?

Davis: Especially when you don’t wear a hat!
 

(Shot of Madison, cooking rice. Sana is watching.)

Sana: Cooking it good?

Madison: Mm hm. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to cook rice. Here, try this.

(Madison hands Sana a utensil with rice on one end. Sana takes a bite of it, and immediately spits it out.)

Sana: Mole!!

Madison: What??

(TK enters the scene)

TK: What’s going on!?

Sana: Madison sabotaged dinner!

Madison: Did I?

(Madison takes a bite of it, suddenly looks disgusted, and barely gets it down.)

Madison: Ew… I guessed it’s a bit undercooked.

TK: Let me try.

(TK goes for the rice. Madison puts a hand up to stop him.)

Madison: You don’t want to. Trust me.

Sana: I ain’t trusting you for a second, give me that.

(Sana downs a huge bowl of the undercooked rice, spits it all out in disgust.)

Sana: Oh yeah. I forgot.

Madison: Guys, I’m really sorry. It’s not like we can’t cook more, right?

TK: Yeah, no problem. Here, let me give it a whirl.

Sana: You go for it TK! Show that Mole who’s boss!

Madison: Would you quit calling me that?

Madison: I’ve come to realize that it’s a lot more fun playing in a game than trying to spoil it for people. I had a lot of fun as the Mole, but this is just a lot better, and more of a challenge. Of course, since everybody knows I was the Mole it’s even more of a challenge!
 

(American side. Arnold and Pheobe are out fishing while Wendy sits on the beach watching them, and waiting impatiently.)

Wendy: Well…

(Kenny revitalizes next to her.)

Wendy: Took you long enough!

Kenny: (Unintelligible mumbling)

Wendy: Oh. Man, can you believe these people? We’ve been here for six days, and already those Hey Arnold kids think they’re controlling everything. They already got rid of Milhouse and Eliza, and I bet they’re going to try to get rid of me next.

Kenny: (Unintelligible mumbling)

Wendy: And that was a mistake. We gotta stick together, or it’s going to be just them pretty soon. Look at them, plotting and planning their every move.

(Shot of Arnold and Phoebe, fishing.)

Arnold: Well, what do you want to talk about?

Phoebe: I don’t know. Chocolate?

Arnold: No thanks. Thinking about food makes me hungry. Mentally, it’s a bad idea to make yourself hungrier than you really are.

Phoebe: Oh. Hey… what are those two looking at?

(Arnold looks behind his back at Wendy and Kenny.)

Arnold: I dunno. Think they’re planning something together?

Phoebe: I wouldn’t be surprised. Considering the way Wendy keeps arguing with me and the way Kenny keeps on dying, they’ve proven themselves to be quite unpredictable.

Arnold: Yeah.

(They keep looking at Wendy and Kenny. Back to Wendy and Kenny, watching back.)

Wendy: Look at that, plotting our demises like the bastards they are!

Kenny: (unintelligible)

Wendy: Yeah, but that wouldn’t be enough. We have to find someway to break them up too. It’s four on two otherwise.

Kenny: (unintelligible)

Wendy: You said a mouthful there.

Phoebe: I’m seriously trying as hard as I can out there in the immunity challenges, and although I may be somewhat responsible for us losing, I’m not going to roll over and get voted off because of Wendy. I can play with the best of them.

Arnold: I personally don’t want to let this "show loyalty" get in the way of my judgment. I hate to say it, but when it all comes to down to strengths on the team, Wendy is probably stronger than Phoebe. And I hate to say it, but if we lose immunity again, I’d probably vote Phoebe off.
 

Day Eight
(Shots of the reward challenge, where a person from each team must support a heavy load of weight on their backs. TK barely defeats Gerald.)

Mike: (VO) At the reward challenge, the Japanese show no signs of stopping, as they win their fourth straight challenge, and some fishing tackle.

(Shot of the Americans, minus Gerald, with Manny.)

Helga: What’s going on here?

Manny: You guys suck. That’s what.
 

(At the Japanese tribe, Akito, Kari, and Sakura are lounging about, bored.)

Kari: Maybe they were right- being in a utopia is kinda boring.

Sakura: Well, it’s better than arguing all day and setting up voting alliances.

Akito: It is? I wouldn’t hate voting alliances and backstabbing.

Kari: Well, you’re kinda weird Akito.

Akito: Besides, we’re supposed to be surviving out in the wild on our own instincts. This isn’t what I expected.

Sakura: Well, I’m perfectly content. Right Kari?

Kari: Yep!

Akito: I need something to do.

(Akito stands up and begins to walk away.)

Akito: I’m going to go kill a boar for the hell of it. I’ll be back in a couple hours.

(Kari and Sakura glance at him oddly as he walks away.)
 

(Shot of the American rice bin. It’s starting to dwindle already.)
Artie: (VO) While the Japanese are hunting for the hell of it, the Americans are doing it as a top priority. They’re trying to survive! It’s dramatic! It’s art!

Phoebe: We’re reaching dangerous levels in our food supply. We haven’t been able to catch enough fish to support all six of us.

Gerald: We sent Kenny out to go kill us a boar. Unfortunately the boar kinda killed him. Man, that’s the kind of luck we’ve been having since we got here!!

Helga: It’s a battle for survival. The hunter vs. the hunted. What braniac decided to send Kenny out to do the job? Didn’t he see this coming?

Wendy: I sent Kenny because I have more faith in him than I do the other four. I was thinking he’d make it another day!
 

Day Nine
(Shot of the two teams, who are all tied in a group, and running an obstacle course for immunity.)

Manny: (VO) Although the Japanese have an 8-6 advantage, 8-5 if you count Kenny’s absence, that turned out to be a disadvantage in a challenge where you are only as fast as your slowest member.

(Gerald carries Phoebe across the finish line and the Americans finally pull off the immunity win, and all collapse in exhaustion.)

Manny: (VO) Finally, the utopia will have to do some purifying and eliminate their weakest member.

Li: If I remember my Survivor, the most devious person in the group is the one that ends up causing the most trouble. Sometimes they even win. I figure that with all of us pulling our weight, we take out the most devious person now. And that most devious person is…
 

(Shot of Li, talking to TK and Kari.)
Kari: Madison?

Li: But she was the Mole. You don’t know what she’s capable of.

TK: Well yeah, but she’s not trying to be the Mole now.

Kari: Yeah, I’m having just as much trouble figuring out who to vote for, but I’m not going to pick Madison just because she was devious in a different game.

(Kari walks away.)

Li: TK?

TK: I can’t think of a good reason to vote off Davis yet, so sure.
 

Tribal Council
(Shot of TK, holding "MADISON")
TK: Um… I like you a lot, but since we have to pick somebody, I’m going to take out the most conniving member of the team now.

(Shot of Akito, holding "MADISON")
Akito: She’s a total conspirator, she hides behind a veil of secrecy, and we have to take her out before the cold, heartless monster strikes again.

(Shot of Sakura, holding "AKITO")
Sakura: I’m sorry, but if he’s going to just kill a boar for no good reason, you know he’s got problems.

(Shot of Davis, holding "SANA")
Davis: You’re annoying, you’re self-centered, and man! What an idiot!

(Shot of Kari, holding "LI")
Kari: I can’t let you vote off Madison based on her previous reality series career.

(Shot of Madison, holding "LI")
Madison: Since this is the dubbed version, I’ll say it’s because you’re targeting me.

(Shot of Sana, holding "MADISON")
Sana: Don’t mess with our food, Mole!

(Shot of Madison, looking surprised and disappointed as the final vote is read. She takes her torch up.)

Madison: Maybe it is better to be the mole. At least I’d get to stay the whole time.

(Madison’s torch is extinguished.)

Mike: (VO) And with that, Cardcaptor’s Madison Taylor is the first voted off of the Japanese Tribe.

Episode Three Voting Record
Madison- (4): Akito, Li, Sana, TK
Li- (2): Kari, Madison
Akito- (1): Sakura
Sana- (1): Davis

Episode Four- Day Ten
(Akito is lounging about with TK)
TK: Well, we managed to get rid of one person without too much hassle. At least I hope there wasn’t much hassle.

Akito: I’d rather have the hassle. More exciting that way.

TK: Nah, I was starting to like the atmosphere here.

Akito: It was boring. At least when we vote people off, a few people let their dark sides out.

TK: Yeah, but I’d like to go as long as possible without having to worry about voting strategies.

(Kari walks in)

Kari: TK, did you vote for Madison last night?

TK: Yeah.

Kari: Why? You didn’t actually believe all that stuff Li was saying about her being a devious Mole, did you?

TK: Uh…

Akito: She’s capable of it. Trust me, I know.

TK: Yeah, I could tell that if we didn’t take her down, she’d pick us off one by…

(From the look in her eyes, Kari ain’t buying it.)

TK: Would you rather I voted off you or Davis?

(Kari glances aside)

Kari: Okay, fine, you win. Just don’t go around doing all that underhanded stuff now. It can at least wait until the merger.

Akito: If we kept Madison on, we wouldn’t have lasted.

Kari: Sure… whatever. Well, see ya.

(Kari walks away. TK is about to sit down, when Akito makes a "whipping" noise. TK looks abruptly at him, then shakes it off and lies down again.)

Akito: I don’t really know if Madison was trying to be as devious as Li thought. We’ve all seen that she’s capable of it, but it’s not like it’s something she would want to do on a regular basis. I just voted for her to stir things up. I’m seriously bored to death around here.

Sakura: I just couldn’t believe the nerve of Li to get the Child’s Toy kids, and even TK, to vote off Madison. The Digimon kids are sticking together, Sana and Akito are sticking together- why can’t the Cardcaptor kids?
 

(Zoom over to the American Beach.)
Phoebe: This is it. The standoff everybody’s been waiting for. Wendy’s been taking potshots at me for the first week, but now, I’m striking back. It’s Phoebe vs. Wendy- Round 1! She may be tough but she’s never encountered the likes of Phoebe Hyerdal.

(Phoebe walks up to Wendy. She’s about as annoyed as she can get. If you know Phoebe… that ain’t bloody much.)

Phoebe: Wendy Testaberger?

Wendy: Yes?

Phoebe: I understand that you don’t like me. Well, I don’t like you. So I think it’s best for the entire tribe if we settle this now.

Wendy: And how do you suggest we do that?

(Phoebe offers to shake her hand.)

Phoebe: We start over. We’ve obviously gotten off on the wrong foot and I’d like to make amends now.

(Wendy stares at Phoebe’s hand.)

Wendy: Don’t f**k with me.

(Wendy walks away to a stunned Phoebe.)

Phoebe: Okay, round one goes to Wendy, but the war isn’t over yet.
 

Day Eleven
(Davis is fishing on the shore when Kari walks up to him.)

Kari: Davis, can I talk with you?

(Davis stumbles into the river. Kari looks at him with some concern, rolls her eyes, then helps him back to shore.)

Davis: You want to talk with me? About what?

Kari: Strategic alliances, voting tactics, and the genius it takes to win this game.

(Davis wraps an arm around Kari’s neck and rests it on her shoulder.)

Davis: Well, you’ve come to the right place!!

(Kari shrugs off the arm.)

Kari: Did you notice how half of us just out of the blue voted for Madison, even though she hasn’t done anything to deserve it?

Davis: Yeah, that is kinda weird. Li said something about her being devious, but I didn’t buy it. She’s just a cute girl that can’t shoot a paintball gun worth a darn.

Kari: Um…

(Davis suddenly panics)

Davis: Did I say cute?! Because she’s nowhere near as cute as you, Kari!

Kari: Oh. That’s not what I was thinking of. But it’s good that you didn’t believe Li. I’m surprised TK fell for it, but I’m really glad you didn’t.

Davis: Hey, that stuff that Li tries may work on amateurs like TK, but I’m a master at this game; I’m not going to play into Li’s little tricks.

Kari: (turned off, but hiding it) Well good, because I have this strange feeling that if we have to vote someone off again, Li’s going to go after one of us. It looks like he has Sana and Akito in the palm of his hand, and I bet he’s going to try to vote you or me off next.

Davis: So what do we do?

(Kari smiles)

Kari: Stop him, silly.
 

(Shot of the two teams putting together a puzzle for a reward challenge.)

Mike: (VO) Ew… Day-kari. I’m really sorry, but I just don’t like Davis. Seems like a ripoff of Tai and…

Artie: (VO) Hey, stop ranting, the Americans are gonna win another one!

Mike: (VO) Oh, sorry Mr. Elker. The Americans win the reward challenge, and get three chickens for their own consumption.

(Shot of the Americans with the chickens. Wendy is somewhat apprehensive about the way they’re going to eat them eventually.)

Artie: (VO) Of course, these young children will have to murder, prepare, and eat these chickens. How will they be able to handle the trauma?

(Shot of Helga’s face as she calmly chops the head off of one of the chickens.)

Artie: (VO) Today’s lesson- do not mess with Helga G. Pataki.

(Shot of Kenny, hunting.)

Manny: (VO) Meanwhile, the hunting doesn’t stop for other Americans.

(Kenny and a boar are in a stare-down. Kenny looks nervous. They maneuver around each other, each looking for the kill on the other. Eventually, Kenny is able to force the boar to retreat around the tree when Arnold arrives.)

Arnold: Hey Kenny, I thought that you could use some help.

Kenny: (unintelligible)

Arnold: Well I’m sure that you could do it yourself, but since the boar already killed you once, I just want to make sure that someone’s got your back.

Kenny: (unintelligible)

Arnold: Okay… fair enough.

(Kenny sneaks up from behind and scares the boar towards Arnold. It stops, and is cornered between Arnold and Kenny. Kenny dives after it, but the boar maneuvers around, and is in a position to attack Kenny. He starts to do so, but before he can get to the jugular Arnold scares the boar away and attends to Kenny.)

Arnold: You alright?

Kenny: (unintelligible, but sounding a bit miffed)

Arnold: Hey, I was just watching you. Who knows what he might have done to you if I wasn’t there. We don’t need that boar, we still do have food at home. Okay?

Kenny: (still angry, but still unintelligible)

Arnold: Fine, fine, don’t ask me for help again.

Arnold: I practically saved Kenny’s life and he doesn’t appreciate the gesture. I’d rather have him living as long as possible, and since we’ve got food elsewhere, it’s not worth sacrificing Kenny for. Even though he has a problem with dying, he’s still a valuable member of this team along with everybody else.

Kenny: (angry, unintelligible mumbling)
 

Day Twelve
(Shot of Phoebe and Akito answering questions pertaining to island life for the Immunity Challenge. Both answer the question correctly.)

Mike: (VO) In a ferocious battle of wits for immunity, the battle rages on…

(Shot of Davis and Helga answering a question. They answer differently.)

Manny: Hold on a sec… Artie could you take a look at this?

(Artie walks in.)

Manny: This is the answer… and that’s what they said.

Artie: Oh man… that is odd.

Manny: I know. What should I do?

Artie: It’s something I’ve never seen before, but yeah- that’s definitely the answer. I’m as shocked as you are, and I’ll get some people to analyze it but… wow.

Manny: (unsure) Okay… Artie’s confirmed it- Davis is right, the Japanese have won immunity.

(Manny hands Davis the idol as the Japanese run up to him and celebrate, extremely happy.)
 

(Back at American camp. Gerald, Arnold, and Helga are having a frank discussion.)

Arnold: I mean, I have respect for Wendy. I honestly have trouble believing that she is the weakest link.

Helga: But who else are you going to vote for? Not Phoebe obviously.

Gerald: It’s true Arnold, she didn’t cost us immunity this time. That was that whole "Crest of Miracles" thing Dave’s got goin’ for him.

Arnold: But Wendy does do her share. And although she could be acting a little better about it, most of her problems with Phoebe are a bit justified. If I wasn’t such good friends with Phoebe, I’d probably also have problems with her lack of physical ability.

Gerald: But there’s nobody else to vote for.

(Wendy walks in, staring off-screen)

Wendy: Oh my God! Kenny breathed in some smoke and fell into the fire! His hands are burning!

Gerald: You…

Wendy: (interrupting) Now his arms are burning…

Gerald: Those…

Wendy: (interrupting) Oh no, it’s spreading to his torso and… well, he’s dead now.

Gerald: Thank you. (shouting) You bas…

Helga: So, football-head, who’s it gonna be?
 

Tribal Council
(Shot of Arnold, voting for "KENNY")
Arnold: It’s a little strange voting for somebody who’s dead, but wherever you are, we wish you the best.

(Shot of Phoebe, voting for "WENDY")
Phoebe: I’ve locked onto my target, and I will not rest until one of us is defeated!

(Shot of Wendy, voting for "PHOEBE")
Wendy: She didn’t cost us immunity, but now she’s just going all weird on us. I can’t stand her anymore.

(Shot of Manny, reading the votes. He pulls out one for "KENNY")

Manny: And the fourth person voted off is Kenny. Kenny’s absentee ballot wouldn’t matter. Gerald, could you hand me his torch.

(Gerald grabs Kenny’s torch and gives it to Manny.)

Manny: Kenny McKormick? Wherever you are, the tribe has spoken.

(Manny extinguishes the flame.)

Manny: It’s time for you to not come back.

Episode Four Voting Record
Kenny- (3): Arnold, Gerald, Helga
Arnold- (1): Kenny
Phoebe- (1): Wendy
Wendy- (1): Phoebe

Episode Five- Day Thirteen
(Shot of Li, observing the other Japanese kids, and talking to Akito.)

Li: In many ways, they’re all threats.

Akito: Except Sana.

Li: Well… even Sana. Don’t ask me how, but she’s a threat to win.

Akito: This is a game where you have to make friends with people, stab your friends in the back, then get your friends to vote for you anyway. Now that I think about it, Sana can do all that and more.

Li: Which is why I think she should be on our team for now. But we need one more.

Akito: TK?

Li: He’s the best bet. Sakura’s still mad at me for voting Madison off, Kari doesn’t want a part of anything, and Davis is well… Davis.

Akito: Is Davis a threat to win?

Li: Hmm… he’s not much for strategic maneuvers, he doesn’t stand out physically, and he’s not all that popular.

Akito: But he gets really damn lucky really damn often.

Li: I say he’s next.

Akito: Yep.

Li: I’m not too worried about being targeted by the others. Sakura was pretty mad at me for voting off somebody from my own show, so what are the odds that Sakura’s going to do the same thing to me?

Sakura: I’d hate to do it, but if Showron pisses me off too much- he’s outta here!

(Arnold and Gerald are cooking one of the chickens.)

Arnold: So I’m basically stuck. Kenny was an easy out, but if we have to vote one more off, I’m seriously thinking Phoebe’s weaker.

Gerald: Arnold, it ain’t about who’s weaker, it’s about who we can go into the merger with. Personally, I’d rather have both Phoebe and Wendy.

Arnold: Well so would I, but face it- Wendy’s doing more on the team.

Gerald: I know she is. But you know I can’t just vote Phoebe off like that.

Arnold: I don’t like it either, but given a choice between her or Wendy, I’d rather keep Wendy.

(Helga walks in)

Helga: Welp, one more’s outta here. Strangely enough, I don’t miss him. Maybe we’ll get lucky and we can get rid of that Wendy chick before we merge with the Japs.

Gerald: Helga, we already lost three people, we don’t want to go in 6-4, you know?

Helga: I suppose Wendy would be a good target for the other team. We’ll just say "hey kids, Wendy’s the leader of this tribe, if you vote her off, we’re really screwed." Think they’ll buy that?

Arnold: I don’t know. Maybe. Let’s win first and worry later.
 

Day Fourteen
(Shot of the Japanese team carrying Sakura on a stretcher, and crossing the finish line before the Americans carrying Phoebe, mostly because the American stretcher looked to be coming apart.)

Mike: (VO) Japanese dominance continues as they win the reward challenge, earning a number of fun items like shampoo and towels.

(Li, Akito, Sana, and TK are washing their hair in the river.)

Sana: TK, I just noticed- you have blue eyes! Are you part Caucasian?

TK: Uh no- I’m part French.

Sana: Oh, okay. Say, I was wondering- if we have to vote somebody off again, who’s left? There’s no more Moles.

TK: You know, I was thinking the same thing. I mean, except for Kari, who probably had a good reason to be mad at me for voting off Madison…

(Akito makes another whipping noise.)

TK: …we’re back to being a pretty peaceful tribe.

Li: You know why we voted off Madison right?

Sana: She’s the Mole!!

Li: Actually it’s because we knew she’s capable of that level of deception. She was a threat to win.

TK: Yeah, but who else is really a threat to win? Nobody’s a weak link, but nobody’s really standing out as having potential to win.

Akito: And we should all stick together, so for now, none of us four should be considered.

Li: Sakura isn’t going to win. She’s not capable of it. That leaves two candidates.

(Li looks at TK.)

Li: Your call- Davis or Kari?

TK: What?

Akito: They’re both threats. Who’s going, Davis or Kari?

TK: Well… I guess I’ll say… Davis. But…

(Sana jumps up and hugs TK)

Sana: Good call TK!! Way to lead the team and vote off your friends! You’re so cool TK-chan!!

(TK stares at Sana oddly.)

Artie: (VO) Hey Mike! This is a dubbed version- no honorifics!! Get on the ball with that editing thang!

Mike: (VO) Sorry, must have missed that one.

(Arnold and Gerald are fishing.)

Arnold: You know, Phoebe designed the stretcher. And it broke.

Gerald: So? It was just a reward challenge.

Arnold: Yeah, but still- we gave her a chance, and again she cost us a challenge.

Gerald: Arnold, Arnold, it’s no big deal! We merge pretty soon anyway.

Arnold: That’s just it- say she costs us immunity again and we vote off Wendy. What happens if we lose again- no matter what happens, we’ll have to vote for one of us. And we go in four people down. We wouldn’t have a chance.

Gerald: Look, if I had to choose between you and Phoebe, I’d vote Phoebe. Okay?

Arnold: Here’s another thing that’s bothering me. We had four people to start out with. Eliza, Milhouse- they were alone and they got picked off immediately. Kenny and Wendy had two people- and we took Kenny out. Now if we vote Wendy off it’s just us four. Really now- how fair is that?

Gerald: Boy if you’re worrying about fair in this game, you’re not going to last a second!

Arnold: Look, just don’t tell Helga I’m not going to vote Wendy off. Okay? I don’t need her on my case about all this.

Gerald: Well if you’re right about one thing- that’s it!
 

Day Fifteen
(Shot of a giant maze, and the Americans running out of it to claim victory.)
Artie: (VO) Of course, all that serious talk between the two buds mean jack, as the Americans claim victory in the immunity challenge.

(Shot of TK and Kari watching Li and Akito talking in the distance.)

Kari: Look at them. Plotting, planning. This tribe was a whole lot better without all this stuff.

TK: Well, it’s an important part of the game. I don’t like it either, but if we want any chance of winning, we have to do it.

(Kari spots Sana, skipping towards them.)

Kari: Hey TK, you know the only thing worse than a secret alliance?

(Sana goes past them, singing a happy melody)

Sana: (happily singing) Gonna vote the baka off! Gonna vote the baka off! TK’s gonna go and say- "Sayonara Daisuke!" We are gonna vote the baka off!!

(By now, Sana has gone past them)

TK: (to Kari, responding to the question) What?

Kari: An alliance that’s open and arrogant about it.

(TK smiles. Kari looks at him.)

Kari: You aren’t going to do it, are you?

TK: What?

Kari: Do what Li says and vote off Davis. He’s our friend. And I don’t care how much of a threat they think he is, we can’t just vote him off now because of it.

TK: I don’t know. I mean, he’s just one of those types that has a good chance of winning- and this is not a team game. Only one person can win.

(Kari looks at him, shakes his head, and walks away.)

Artie: (VO) Mike!! Sana’s song had four Japanese words in it! And one Japanese name! Are you just going to sit there and let the audience be confused??

Mike: (VO) Well, most people understand "sayonara", and if they’ve seen Mole they certainly know what "baka" means.

Artie: (VO) What about "Daisuke?"

Mike: (VO) Then it doesn’t rhyme.

Artie: (VO) Since when did that matter?!
 

Tribal Council
(Shot of Li, voting for "DAVIS")
Li: I don’t know if you realize it, but you’ve got what it takes. Just smart enough to vote for the right people, and just stupid enough for most people to not see you as a threat.

(Shot of Davis, voting for "LI")
Davis: Kari says that you’re going to vote for either Kari or me. And I can’t let that happen. I know I should probably vote for CK or Sana or somebody else, but I’m going to vote for you instead. Because nobody threatens to vote off Kari when I’m around!

(Shot of Akito, voting for "DAVIS")
Akito: Meh. At least it’s not me.

(Shot of Kari, voting for "LI")
Kari: Anybody who votes off their own friend from their own show for the reasons you gave shouldn’t stay here.

(Shot of Sana, voting for "DAVIS")
Sana: You’re annoying, you’re self-centered, and man! What an idiot!

(Shot of Sakura, voting for "LI")
Sakura: Li, I’m really sorry, but I can’t let you pick my friends off one by one.

(Shot of TK. He’s already put his vote into the bin, but looks at the camera, sadly.)
TK: I’m sorry.

(Shot of Manny, finishing off the ceremonial vote read. He has the final vote, but hasn’t announced.)

Manny: That’s three votes for Davis, and three votes for Li. And the final vote, and the fifth person voted off…

(Manny holds up the final card for "LI.")

Manny: Li.

(Li shakes his head and takes his torch up. Meanwhile, Kari looks over and smiles at TK. He returns the smile.)

Episode Five Voting Record
Li- (4): Davis, Kari, Sakura, TK
Davis- (3): Akito, Li, Sana

(In the commentary room, the shot of TK smiling is replaced with the Animation Survivor screen as Artie, Manny, and Mike commentate.)
Mike: There. T-Kari. That’s what I like to see. Although I kinda wanted Davis to still go.

Artie: Manny! Two Japanese votes, two Cardcaptors gone, what’s going on?

Manny: Madison’s not a cardcaptor. She’s just a very strange best friend.

Artie: You know what I mean.

Manny: Whatever.

Mike: Wow. Sakura voting Li off- quite strange. I always thought those two were…

Manny: Just because Sakura voted Li off doesn’t mean anything. Remember, Sora voted Matt off in the first, (rubbing it in to Mike) and look where they are now!!

(Mike’s looking depressed.)

Mike: Yeah, yeah. Soratt- who thought that up?

Artie: Oh, I’m sure you can put a "Sora loves Tai" spin on Sora marrying Matt. Right?

Manny: Yeah, I’ve done worse.

Mike: I don’t mind the Kenlei, but Soratt’s just freaky.

Artie: Anyway, the tension is mounting at both camps. Can you feel it? Can you feel it? Huh?

Manny: (dry) Oh. Yes. I feel it. (sotto, tired) I feel like I want to go home. (lazily "news casting") Anyway, Madison Taylor, Kenny McKormick, and Li Showron are the next victims… (sotto) and I’m next if I don’t go out for a beer pretty soon.

Artie: When we come back- the next three thrilling episodes of Animation Survivor 2!! Will Arnold have to choose whether to vote off Phoebe or Wendy? Can Akito get back into the good graces of the Japanese Tribe? And of course- the big merger! This is even better than the first one!!

Manny: Good God…
