"Still doesn't feel real, we finally made it off the island." Darius muses.

"Go us."

"I'm gonna miss you guys so much!" Sammy sighs.

"Before we get off this boat, I'll need everyone to write down their e-mail addresses, social media handles, and weekly availabilities for a group check-in."

"Also, your favorite kind of cake and the best time of the day to receive packages."

The others just smile at Sammy's exhilaration and eagerness.

"And maybe, I don't know, for fun, your favorite memory of just the two of us."

"Hey, who took my food?" Kenji interrupts.

"I had a bunch of berries sitting right there." He points at his empty plate.

"Well, they're not there anymore." Y/N shrugs.

"Yeah, clearly, Captain Obvious." Kenji rolls his eyes.

"Maybe the boat is haunted." Yasmina teases.

Sammy elbows her, "Oh, Yaz, no!"

"Don't even joke!"

The girls laugh.

"No sea sickness anymore, Ben?" Brooklyn inquires, "What? Did the island beat it out of you?"

"When you've seen the things I've seen, a little thing like motion sickness can't--"

"Aww!" He groans when he realizes his grub plate is empty.

"Who ate all the grubs!?"

"Not if you paid me."

"Truly, no one."

Clicking noises reverberate around the boat and the camper's freeze. Something tells them they're about to find out who's been eating the food.

Once it's clear that the sound is coming from the side, they all scramble over to get a look.

The kids spot a Compy, happily munching on its stolen treats.

They all groan.

"Of course, a stowaway." Yasmina sighs.

"Why'd it have to be the most annoying dinosaur on the island." Y/N glares at the little thief.

"The last thing we need is it chewing on some wires or something." Darius approaches it warily, but it catches on and scampers off.

"What do you say we catch one last Compy? For old times' sake?" Yasmina grins.

"I say whoever catches him gets the last sleeve of crackers!" Y/N shouts before taking his head start.

"Hey, no fair!" Sammy giggles and chases after him.

Yasmina and Ben join them, leaving the other three campers alone.

Ben snatches up a bucket as they chase it around the loop and back to the other side. He tries to capture it but misses.

"Ha!" Y/N swerves around him and reaches for the Compy but trips over Brooklyn.

"Ha!" Ben echoes.

"I got it, I got it!" Darius calls as the Compy runs in between his legs. But before he can grab it Ben accidentally shoves his bucket over Darius' head.

"Sorry, B!" Y/N untangles himself from the girl and hops over Ben and Darius.

He finds Sammy and Yasmina trying to corner it on the table, but it quickly hops away.
