As usual, the episode begins with a recap from Chris
"Last time on Total Drama Action... Just when the cast thought they were safe, I swung in to surprise - I mean... antagonize them. The cast were forced to show their creative sides while showing off their backsides as they made superhero costumes out of spandex. And some other junk. [laughs] Nice tights! Of course, they were foiled by the diabolical Pythonicus, the super evil alter ego of the villainous Chef. In a fight against evil, the cast proved they could be heroes. And also, losers! In the end, Harold refused to vote with the rest of the Guys' alliance despite efforts from Duncan and Courtney. It seemed to be curtains for the delinquent until the plan was salvaged by Justin, who conspired to have Lindsay vote off Leshawna after Harold held firm. Didn't know he had it in him. Laughs Will Lindsay's vote come out? Will she be manipulated again? Will Duncan and Courtney ever hook up? Maybe you'll find out right now. Maybe you won't. On another totally dramatic episode of... Total. Drama. Action!"
The episode goes much the same as the canon version except that Lindsay is suspicious of Justin although she hesitates to admit her vote last time. Harold and Beth start to connect the dots since her vote must have been swayed for Leshawna to have been voted off.
Courtney still targets Justin and gets him to fall for her as originally.
Lindsay and Beth still fall on the bridge challenge, Duncan still cheats during the blind bridge crossing race and Justin points it out to Chris's doubt. Chris reviews footage at Justin's prompting and disqualifies Duncan from the challenge as he did One Million Bucks BC.
Harold and Justin are the only contestants left for the final challenge. Justin still betrays him after defeating the dragon only to find out that he must sword fight Courtney in the end which he refuses to do.
At the elimination ceremony, Justin is voted off (Preferably without the fake-out. Ugh) to his surprise. It turns out that Courtney and Duncan both voted for him with Harold joining in due to his betrayal and Lindsay voting for him after realizing that he lied to her previously. Lindsay also admits to Beth and Harold that it was her vote that sent Leshawna home and that she was sorry for it to which they both are forgiving.
Votes for Justin: Duncan, Courtney, Harold, and Lindsay
Votes for Duncan: Justin and Beth
Eliminated - Justin
Author's note:
Yes, one of the reasons I had Justin be directly involved in Leshawna's elimination was to make his downfall feel more satisfying and to make it believable that Lindsay would vote for him too. I'm simply not cut out to write out the entire episode, so summaries are fine.
