MacArthur

Valentina "MacArthur" Escobar is a contestant on Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race and is paired with Sanders as a part of The Police Cadets.

Personality
Competitive and brash, MacArthur plays the "bad cop" of the duo. She is not above abusing her power into breaking a few rules in order to win. She is known for being an aggressive person as well as being a control freak; when she wants to get something done, she will complete it whatever the cause. This ranges from commandeering a taxi from its driver, to giving a ticket to Sanders for "excessive complaining" and passing gas right in front of her partner. MacArthur is proud of her physical skills and often teases her partner for being weaker than her. Despite this, MacArthur is not without a code of honor as she is still willing to uphold the law. She would never leave a man behind as seen when she carries Sanders on her shoulder several times whenever Sanders is unable to walk. A tomboy at heart, MacArthur easily make friends with the Surfer Dudes after they bonded through animal farts and at the same time, dislikes nice and feminine people like Kitty. She is aware of Brody's crush toward her, but does not return the feelings.

Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race
MacArthur first appears with Sanders in None Down, Eighteen to Go - Part 1. She and Sanders are willing to go to the extreme to win; although MacArthur is willing to break international laws to win. She and her partner initially choose "Scares" in the Either/Or challenge, but switch to "Stairs" after seeing all the buttons in the elevator were pressed. Sanders tires out half-way up the climb, so MacArthur carries her over her shoulder the rest of the way. They are on of the six teams on the first flight to Morocco.

In None Down, Eighteen to Go - Part 2, she and Sanders make it to Youseff's spice kiosk. She and Sanders pick five spices easily, but when Sanders tries to ask Youseff where the next part of the challenge by talking loudly, MacArthur apologizes for her, although she herself starts yelling too. MacArthur begins to overheat on the camel ride, but they arrive at the restaurant first. Sanders takes the "Botch or Watch" challenge, but MacArthur grows frustrated by her slow eating and chugs the stew down her throat. As they race to the Chill Zone, she once again has to carry her partner over her shoulder when Sanders gets a cramp. The two get into a foot race with the Ice Dancers for 2nd, but MacArthur is able to jump ahead and land in 2nd Place.

MacArthur and Sanders are the second team to leave in French is an Eiffel Language on mopeds; but are overtaken by Josee and Jacques. She becomes creeped out by their constant smiles, and grows frustrated trying to figure them out. They are are one of the eight teams on the first flight to Paris. During the Botch or Watch, MacArthur successfully draws a caricature of Sanders and moves on to the catacombs. MacArthur reveals she's been training her sense of smell, which allows them to find the Roquefort cheese easily, but are caught up once again by the Ice Dancers. They take the lead since Jacques forgot to grab the paddles, and the two teams once again race for first place. The cadets are able to keep the lead and take first place, rubbing it in Josee's face.

In Mediterranean Homesick Blues, Josee and Jacques try to take their tip before the Cadets, and MacArthur reminds them they came in second. She states she has her eye on the Dancers. Sanders and MacArthur are unable to hail a taxi, so MacArthur brutally commandeers one using her police authority. Sanders is concerned about MacArthur's aggressiveness. MacArthur also viciously interrogates the driver for directions, then pulls a stunt driving move she saw in a movie, before giving the taxi a ticket for parking in a fire zone. At Calanque de Maubois, MacArthur watches Sanders do the Botch or Watch, and starting building their sand castle. At first they build it large, but after seeing Dwayne's castle, they realize it doesn't have to be big. Afterwards, they manage to charter a boat to Iceland, passing by Carrie and Devin and finishing in 3rd.
