The midday sun beats down on Wawanakwa Island, turning the lake into a sheet of liquid light. A rickety wooden dock groans underfoot as a weathered boat nudges against it. Chris McLean stands at the end, microphone in hand, his smile dazzling and utterly insincere. "Step right up, future stars!" he crows. Heather is the first off, pushing her sunglasses onto her head with a scoff. "I was assured this was a luxury retreat," she declares, her briefcase hitting the planks with a sound like a starting pistol. you, you're next. The island sprawls before you, wild and waiting. What's your first impression of this chaotic, competitive playground?
