She might even have said it aloud, not yet having had the maturity to win with grace. Take that, losers, she had thought at the time. It was here that, despite having 18 of the 19 spectators in the “Peanut Gallery of Failure” arrayed against her, she had upset the heavily favored Courtney to win the first Total Drama Island competition. The road did indeed go all the way to the camp, terminating near the so-called “stadium” (seating all of 40 people) that had been the scene of what Heather still counted as the greatest moment of her life. She was not equipped for a substantial hike, but if the road went all the way to the camp, she would take a look around. The “point of interest” designation suggested that the camp was not currently operating, so nobody was likely to challenge unannounced visitors. It so happened that none of her groceries needed refrigeration.

In this case, though, the description caught Heather’s eye: They were typically unusual natural features, scenic overlooks, or places where somebody had done something that someone in authority considered noteworthy. There were similar “points of interest” all over Canada. Unwilling to deal with that again, she was returning home by another route.Īhead, another road branched off to the left, and a road sign announced a “Point of Interest” in the vicinity. She had been much delayed, and a good deal aggravated, by road construction on the trip out. Heather was returning with a load of groceries to her summer cabin. It was late morning as the aging red Lexus tooled along an unremarkable semirural road in the Muskoka district. What if the cavalry had come over the hill a few seconds later?
Thus alerted, Gwen successfully defended herself and escaped unharmed. In the “scary movie” scenario (episode #19, “Hook, Line and Screamer”) Chris, Chef Hatchet and the “slain” campers burst into the lodge and warned Gwen that the "Escaped Psycho Killer With a Chainsaw and a Hook" was truly what he appeared to be, and was not merely an actor.
A few seconds more or less can have profound and far-reaching effects.
