Haute Camp-ture

'''Chris goes to Playa Des Losers via motorboat. There, the losers get a chance to talk about The Final Five and also eliminate one camper unfairly.'''

Recap
In this special episode of Total Drama Island, Chris heads for "Playa Des Losers", the luxury lakeside hotel where the voted off campers have been sent, waiting for the finale. At the hotel, we see the losers living in the lap of luxury: Trent and DJ are lounging on deck chairs, Eva was lifting weights and badmouthing Heather, Justin is diving into a pool, and Katie, Sadie and Noah are at an in-pool bar. Katie and Sadie are swooning over Justin when Sadie falls in the water, splashing Noah; she then feels something bite her in the water, which turns out to be Izzy.

The memories continue with Lindsay bad mouthing Heather, Noah complaining about being the third person voted off, and Katie and Sadie about their first fight. Courtney continues her rant by saying she's going to sue the show for not rectifying her unfair ejection, and that the rest of the campers are witnesses, but no one else cares and everyone denies seeing anything. Ezekiel tells Courtney to let it go, and she brains him with the lamp post; Lindsay then tells Courtney that she would've lost in another episode since no one really likes her.

At the food table, Eva says that her experience sucked, but her anger management issues have improved a bit (as seen in Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island, she wasn't lying when she said this); then slaps Lindsay with a steak when she asks if she's Tyler. Noah says that the show was completely uneventful, but Izzy points out that he kissed a guy; they get into a "did-didn't" argument when Trent joins in and says he totally did, namely Cody, while they were asleep in the Awake-a-thon challenge, to which he responds with "No comment." Lindsay comes by and tells everyone that her picture is in "Star Stalker" magazine.

Chris asks Trent if he has anything to say to any of the campers left in the contest, and he wants to tell Gwen that he's rooting for her and misses her; he also admits that he is in love with Gwen and hopes that she's over the whole kissing Heather thing. Izzy jumps in and says that if she were Gwen, Trent would be seriously maimed. After chewing Trent out, Izzy says she has to go to the bathroom; but instead of leaving, she simply goes in the pool, earning gross looks from everyone else, especially those in the pool with her. Afterward, Chris starts asking everyone what they think of the five campers left in the contest. Everyone pretty unanimously hates Heather, especially Eva, who wants the scum-sucking, back-stabbing witch to kiss her butt. Izzy thinks Heather is a total psycho, Courtney disapproves of Heather reading Gwen's diary, and Harold thinks she's really scary, before Courtney finally catches him and starts beating him with the lamp post. Trent says he never wants to meet another person like Heather, and Lindsay calls her mean, really mean. Ezekiel and Katie think she's bossy, Beth loved telling her off, and Sadie wonders how she got this far if no one liked her. Eva answers Sadie from a distance.

Courtney says that she wants Duncan to win, and though she tries to hide her true feelings, it's obvious to everyone that she likes him. DJ, patting a bandaged Bunny, talks about how tough Duncan is and how he wrestled a grizzly bear; he then slams the table that Bunny was on, sending him flying. Harold is up in a tree with the lamp post wrapped around him, talking about how he hates Duncan, and all the pranks he played on him at the camp; after calling him an idiot, Harold falls out of the tree. Bridgette then says that Duncan is not that tough, and the Courtney told her about his sweet side. Lindsay didn't like him for his abuse of deer and trees. Katie and Sadie talk about how fun Owen was, though he was pretty mean in dodge ball.

Trent reconfirms that he likes Gwen. Courtney agrees that Gwen is smart, but isn't a "team player", comparing Gwen to herself and suggesting that she should be in Gwen's place. Noah tells her to get over it, and Courtney throws her drink at him, knocking him into the water. Lindsay says that Gwen was harsh sometimes, but in the end, she played an awesome joke on Heather, namely planting Harold's red ant farm in her bed. Bridgette says that she liked Gwen and LeShawna because of how nice they were to her when the teams merged, and wanted either of them to win; she then hits Ezekiel who was creeping up on her under the water.

Lindsay then wants to talk about LeShawna. Harold says that at first he thought LeShawna was really loud, but he soon realized that she was his soul mate. Courtney has nothing bad to say about LeShawna, and she excels at saying bad things about people. Katie and Sadie think LeShawna is the best, and Noah tells her they weren't even on the same team as LeShawna.

Later that evening, the losers meet by the pool to discuss who they think should win, Cody has a severe sunburn, and Bunny falls from the sky into Lindsay's lap, who asks if he's Tyler. Chris arrives and tells the losers that they will be voting off the next camper on Total Drama Island.

Katie and Sadie agree on LeShawna, because they think it would be cool for her to join them. Courtney argues the logic and tells them that if they like LeShawna, then they shouldn't vote for her; however, in saying LeShawna's name, Courtney is counted as a third vote for LeShawna. Harold, still with the lamp post wrapped around him, is incensed, thinking Courtney is trying to get back at him through LeShawna like how he got at Duncan through her; he starts cat fighting with Courtney, and they fall in the pool. Lindsay's up next, and she promises the others that she won't vote for LeShawna, but again, saying LeShawna's name counts as a vote, and she now has four votes. DJ calls her out, but Lindsay thinks DJ is voting for her, so she corrects him by saying he has to vote for someone on the island, like LeShawna, racking up another vote for LeShawna. Izzy screams at everyone to not say "LeShawna", which is vote six. A nearby parrot then says the name "LeShawna", bringing the total to seven. Trent argues that vote doesn't count since it the parrot has no idea who "LeShawna" is; of course this counts as vote eight. The parrot repeats "LeShawna", giving LeShawna nine votes. On Total Drama Island, a shocked LeShawna is dragged to the Boat of Losers and tossed on board by Chef.

Quotes

 * Sadie: Ow! Something bit me. Katie: Was it a shark? Noah: Sharks don't swim in chlorinated water, brainiac. Sadie: Noah's right. Besides, I think I saw the sharks getting seaweed mud baths.(shows sharks getting facials, along with Beth)
 * Chris: As you can see, our campers have made themselves comfortable here at our luxury resort; (Geoff & Bridgette are seen making out, Ezekiel is also seen, looking annoyed) Looks like Geoff & Bridgette are happy to be reunited. (they stop for a moment) Geoff: Dude, this resort is off the charts! (They continue)
 * Lindsay: I love being a loser, this is soooo much more my style. If I known how fab this place was, I would had gotten my butt kicked off in the first episode. Plus, now Tyler and I can hang out! (kisses Tyler) Which one's Tyler?
 * Izzy: Look, somebody's bikini bottom! Katie: I think that's yours, Izzy. Izzy: (pause, looks under the water) Oh, crap, it is!
 * Courtney: I don't care how nice this place is. I'm not supposed to be here. After I was kicked off, I found exactly what went on the night I was eliminated. It was all Harold's fault. I should be in the final 5 right now.
 * Harold: (hiding in the bushes) Hey Trent, slide me some baloney? Trent: (thinks about it) Yeah, what the heck? (Trent throws him a huge slab of baloney) Ezekiel: Dude, why are you helping him? He's a traitor, eh? Trent: True, but he doesn't deserve to starve to death. And he sure can't come out here.
 * Courtney: I'm in the middle of filing a lawsuit for wrongful termination of competition. These people are witnesses! I was unfairly kicked off! Trent: I didn't see a thing, man. DJ: You got me. Noah: Must have missed that episode Katie: What's she talking about? Eva: (while walking and lifting weights) Didn't see it. Don't care. Courtney (scoffs) You all know what happened! Ezekiel: Yeah, give her a break already, eh! I mean, I got kicked off in the first epi- (Courtney hits him with the lamp post) Lindsay: You just would've gotten kicked off in another episode. Nobody liked you that much. Courtney: (gasps)That is so not true! Everyone likes me! I used to be a C.I.T! (A coconut falls on Courtney's head) Courtney: This is a coconut; we're in Muskoka, people. If you're going to drop props on my head, at least make them geographically correct! (Snow falls on her. Then a sled lands on the mound of snow and then an Eskimo lands on the sled) Ow! Lindsay: Are you Tyler?
 * Eva: (About her experience on the Island) It sucked! At least my anger management issues improved a bit. Lindsay: Are you Tyler? (Eva hits Lindsay's face with a steak)
 * Noah: Did I get anything out this experience? No. It was completely and totally uneventful. Izzy: He kissed a guy. Noah: No I didn't! Izzy: Yes, you did! Noah: Didn't! Izzy: Diiid! Noah: Did. Not! Izzy: (singsong voice) Didididididididididididididid! Trent: Ahem, uh, I can break this tie. (points to Noah) He totally did. (flashbacks to when Noah kissed Cody's ear in The Big Sleep) Noah: ... I have no comment.
 * Lindsay: Oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh, I got a letter from my sister that said there's a picture of me on "Star Stalker" magaziiine!! Eeeeee!!! Katie and Sadie: Eeeeeee!!! Noah: (sarcastically) Eeeeee. Congratulations, you just peaked. It's all downhill from here, honey. (rolls eyes) Lindsay: Maybe if I get an eating disorder or have my boobs done, I'll get on the cover!
 * Izzy:(to Trent) My lips did what they wanted! My lips have a mind of their own! Blah-blah-blah, fishcakes! Blah-blah-blah (possibly referring to Justin) I'm a liar! Blah-blah-blah-ha-ha! (Laughs) Trent: (creeped out) Okaaay. Izzy: Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom. (Katie, Lindsay, Sadie, Trent and Noah look at Izzy who is simply standing in the pool instead of leaving) Izzy: Ah... (Trent, Katie, Sadie, and Noah quickly get their feet out of the water) Trent: Ewwww, Izzy! Lindsay: That is so gross. Izzy: What? It's chlorinated! Sheesh!
 * Eva: Heather can kiss my butt. It's all her fault I'm stuck in this place. She's a scum-sucking back-stabbing witch and I'm entitled to watching her go down! Chris: Wow, tell us how you really feel. Eva: I just did.
 * Sadie: If none of us even like her, how did Heather make it into the finals? Eva: (from a distance) 'Cause she's a conniving, backstabbing, little witch! That's why!


 * Courtney:(smiling) Who would I like to win? I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'd have to pick Duncan. (whispers) Don't tell the others though, ok? Izzy: Oh, we already know. You were all over him! (reveals other campers gathered around Courtney) Noah: My golden lab drools less over a rib-eye steak. Lindsay: And... we eavesdropped again. Courtney: UGH!
 * Harold: Duncan? I hate that guy! (flashbacks follow what he says) He made me pee my pants. He drew on my face with a marker. He strung my underwear up a flag pole, put hot sauce in them, and then fed them to me for lunch in an underwear sandwich! (flashbacks stop) He's beyond annoying. Idiot!
 * Courtney: (about Gwen) So she's smart, but she's not exactly a team player. I was a team player! It should be ME! Noah: You're here. You lost. Get over it. (Courtney throws her drink at Noah, knocking him out.)
 * Lindsay: Okay Let's talk about LaFawnduh. Everyone else: LeShawna! (Rustling in the bushes) Harold: At first, I thought she was real loud. (smiles) But then, I realized she's my soulmate. (eyes become hearts and puts his hand over his heart)
 * Cody: Well, I think Gwen should win. Lindsay: Really? But she rejected you on national TV for someone more cooler, hunkier, and more stylish. Cody: Thanks for pointing that out, Lindsay.
 * Harold: LeShawna, definitely. Courtney: But you'd vote for Duncan, right? Harold: Why would I do that? Courtney: Because if you don't, I'm going to post all of your little love letters to LeShawna on the internet.
 * DJ: I don't think anyone's giving Duncan enough credit. He woke up from a monster nap and helped us win the dodge ball challenge. Geoff: Okay, that's true. That was some sick prison strategy he pulled out of his butt. Eva: He had all five of you wailing on one opponent at the same time. I like his style.


 * (DJ's Bunny falls on Lindsay's lap) Lindsay: (to Bunny) Tyler?
 * Chris: Here's how it's gonna work! There are no marshmallows.  I'm gonna ask you, one by one, who you would like to see join you here tonight at Playa de Losers.  (eyeing the first of the voters) Katie and Sadie, since you share a brain, I'll ask you both.  Who would you like to vote for? Sadie: (giddily) Ohh! I miss LeShawna the most! (bell dings signifying a vote against LeShawna) Katie: Ohhh!  It would be so much fun to have her here!  Definitely LeShawna! (bell dings) Everyone: (group gasp) Courtney: Why are you voting her off!?  If you like LeShawna... (bell dings) Courtney: ...leave her in! Chris: That's three votes: LeShawna. Courtney: What?  NO! Harold: You're just voting off my girlfriend to spite me (hits Courtney). Courtney: Let go of me, you big geek! (Harold and Courtney start having a slap fight, and eventually, fall into the pool.) Noah: (chuckles) Excellent! Chris: Okay!  Onto the next voter: Lindsay. Lindsay: (assuring everyone) Don't worry!  I'm not gonna vote for LeShawna. (bell dings) DJ: (angrily) LINDSAY! Lindsay: No! You can't vote for me!  You have to vote for someone who's in the final five, like LeShawna. (bell dings) Izzy: Okay!  C'mon, guys!  NO ONE SAY "LESHAWNA"! (bell dings as Izzy gasps and covers up her mouth) Chris: (in background) That's six votes LeShawna. Parrot: Squawk! LeShawna! (bell dings) Everyone: NO! Chris: Seven votes LeShawna. Trent: Chris, that was a parrot!  It doesn't even know who LeShawna is! (bell dings) Parrot: Squawk! Polly want a LeShawna! (bell dings) Chris: (enthusiastically) Nine! (Trent face-palms himself) (Camera switches back to Total Drama Island, and LeShawna is pushed to the Boat of Losers) Chris: And with that, we are done to four!

Trivia

 * Title Reference: This episode's title possibly parodies the phrase, Haute Courture.


 * Unedited this episode would be rated TV-PG D.


 * Despite being a major part of the episode, none of the final five campers have any lines (and minimum screenplay).


 * When Chris is introducing the episode, in one scene he comes out of a trailer that looks like the one LeShawna won in No Pain, No Game and was supposed to get to keep at the end of the summer, but which Chris blew up with a cannon at the start of Search and Do Not Destroy.


 * At the beginning of the episode, we are shown what the final five were doing on the island:
 * LeShawna is throwing up.
 * Heather and Gwen are being chased by a bear.
 * Owen is swimming in the lake and gets covered with leeches.
 * Duncan is fishing and snags Owen's bathing suit.


 * These are the people that the eliminated campers wanted to win if they could vote:
 * Ezekiel: Doesn't say, but he doesn't want Heather to win.
 * Eva: Duncan, because she likes his style.
 * Noah: LeShawna, because she locked Heather in the fridge.
 * Justin: Doesn't say.
 * Tyler: Doesn't say.
 * Katie and Sadie: Owen, because he was so much fun.
 * Cody: Gwen, because he likes her.
 * Beth: Owen, but gives no reason.
 * Izzy: Doesn't say, but she doesn't want Heather to win.
 * Courtney: Duncan, because she likes him.
 * Harold: LeShawna, because he likes her, and reluctantly Duncan, because Courtney forced him to.
 * Trent: Gwen, because he likes her.
 * Bridgette: Gwen or LeShawna.
 * Lindsay: Gwen, because she dumped Harold's red ant farm in Heather's bed.
 * DJ: Duncan, because of the dodgeball strategy and he found Bunny.
 * Geoff: Owen or Duncan, because of the dodgeball strategy.
 * Almost everyone wanted Heather to lose, but they lost the opportunity to vote her off.


 * The people that voted for LeShawna are:
 * 1) Sadie
 * 2) Katie
 * 3) Courtney
 * 4) Lindsay
 * 5) Lindsay again
 * 6) Izzy
 * 7) A parrot that repeats LeShawna's name
 * 8) Trent
 * 9) The parrot again

Except for Katie and Sadie, all of the votes were garnered simply because the others said LeShawna's name first.


 * When Courtney is saying what she'll do to Harold when she finds him, a musical sting is heard in the background, similar to the screeching violins in Psycho ' s shower scene.


 * It is revealed that Katie and Sadie are from Toronto, Ontario.


 * When Harold talks about all of the cruel pranks that Duncan pulled on him, he says that Duncan hoisted his underwear up a flag pole, but that has not been shown in any episodes (it possibly occurred off-screen).


 * When Harold says that LeShawna was his soulmate, his eyes become heart-shaped.


 * What the voted off campers are up to since being voted out:
 * Beth - Getting a facial
 * Cody - Trying to get a tan but fails and gets sunburn
 * Izzy - Doing strange things around Katie, Sadie, and Noah; later barbecues coconuts
 * Justin - Jumping off the diving board
 * Lindsay - Looking for Tyler (she can't remember who Tyler is, or what he looks like)
 * Noah - Hanging out with Katie and Sadie and complaining about how he was the third person voted off.
 * Trent - Rooting for Gwen
 * Bridgette - Making out with Geoff
 * Courtney - Hunting down Harold
 * DJ - Taking care of Bunny
 * Eva - Lifting weights and bad mouthing Heather
 * Ezekiel - Getting close to Bridgette
 * Geoff - Making out with Bridgette
 * Harold - Hiding from Courtney
 * Katie and Sadie - Being friends with each other
 * Tyler - Making out with Lindsay


 * This is the second time that a camper is voted off without a campfire ceremony.


 * Running Gags: Lindsay trying to remember who Tyler is and DJ's Bunny getting injured.


 * Courtney has found out about Harold rigging the votes that led to her elimination and is filing a lawsuit against the show because of it.


 * This marks the first time that Chris doesn't recap the previous episode.


 * The episode title is a play on the French term "haute couture" meaning "high fashion" or "high culture". This is because originally, this episode was to have a fashion show challenge.


 * The parrot that said "LeShawna" was the same parrot Chris had on his shoulder in Search and Do Not Destroy, however this time it's real, whereas the previous one was a plastic one (as Duncan observed).


 * Most think Ezekiel never take off his shoes and socks. However, at the end of this episode while they all sit around the pool and vote LeShawna off, Ezekiel is completely bare-footed.
 * This may have been a goof, because Ezekiel wears his shoes all the time when swimming, even earlier in the same episode.


 * This episode is similar to the Aftermaths in the second season.


 * Izzy doesn't seem believe that Trent is still in a relationship with Gwen, after the incident between him and Heather, almost similar to how Gwen reacts when she sees Trent again in "The Very Last Episode, Really!" Also, Izzy's shout of "blah-blah-blah, I'm a liar!" appears to hint her former relationship with Justin.
 * This is the only non-aftermath episode of the series so far, where the confesion camera isn't used by a camper or cast-mate.



Goofs

 * Lindsay's Name Goof(s): Lindsay calls LeShawna "LaFawnduh" in this episode, which she has not used since Not So Happy Campers - Part 2.
 * During the flashback of Owen belching the alphabet, he ends the alphabet with the American "Zee", even in the Canadian version of the show, where the original episode ("Not Quite Famous") used the Canadian "Zed".
 * When Trent calls out to Cody if he needs any sunscreen, the close captioning says that Geoff said it.
 * When Sadie is swimming in the pool, she's in her bare feet. However, when she jumps out of the water after Izzy bites her, she has shoes on.
 * Harold claims that Duncan gave him the underwear sandwich in If You Can't Take the Heat when actually, it was Geoff who gave it to him.
 * Courtney is shown holding a full glass but the one she throws at Noah is empty.
 * When Chris leaves the camp, his jet-ski is red, however, when he gets to Playa Des Losers his jet-ski is purple.
 * After the part Courtney wants Duncan to win, and the part where the campers are eavesdropping on Courtney, Katie is the only one wearing normal clothes. Also there was lip syncing problems. Courtney heard talking but it's Lindsay who is seen talking.
 * When Courtney is talking about Duncan and she flashbacked to when Duncan and her were raiding the fridge from Basic Straining, Ezekiel's face is no longer on the milk carton.
 * When Courtney is talking about Duncan she was holding the lamp post that she just beat Harold with. In the very next scene when Harold is talking about Duncan, the lamp post is tied around him.
