Anything Yukon Do, I Can Do Better

'''The three teams fly to the Yukon in Canada and undertake a number of challenges in the freezing temperatures. One person begins to frustrate themselves as they try to get the attention of their former flame, and one person takes advantage of another, and gets them eliminated.'''

Recap
The episode starts with Team Amazon in the winner's cabin. Heather is sleeping while wearing Courtney's sleep mask (to which she most likely borrows it from), while Courtney and Gwen are relaxing. Cody, who was sleeping as well, is awaken by Sierra, which terrified him, and she is seen massaging Cody's foot. Cody evicts her and asks what she was doing, while she responds that everyone likes a foot massage. He uncomfortably states that normally yes, but that he doesn't like to have his feet touched. Then she informs him that there's a pressure point between the tarsal bones that can temporarily paralyze the body. Before he could try to avoid her anymore, she grabs his right foot and paralyzes him. In the confessional, he advises viewers to never sleep near a stalker and wonders where he could find shoes with locks on them.

The next scene films the loser's cabin. Owen is seen snoring, while the others from his team, Izzy, Noah, Tyler and Alejandro, seem tired. In the other side of the cabin, LeShawna is holding Harold's num-yo, and DJ asks where she found it, while she answers that Harold wanted her to stay with it. DJ apologizes for Harold being eliminated. Suddenly, Chris appears and questions everyone if they are alright. But he adds, that he would ask in case if he cared about them, as everyone else looks at him angrily.

LeShawna asks where they are going this time, and beg to him to take them to a place with no pinball of any kind. Or pandas or Candy Fish Tails, as added by DJ and Noah, respectively. At the same moment, Owen wakes up, giggles and looks around trying to find fish tails. Finally, Chris reveals they are going to a place with everything they asked for. Sierra, who listens to this, affirms in the confessional, that after viewing, reviewing and re-reviewing all episodes from Total Drama Island and Total Drama Action, she can positively say that when Chris says something he means another, referring this as something of the "classic" Chris.

The plane starts to shake and the seat belt sing starts to ring. Team Victory is seen trying to put the seat belts on, but LeShawna wasn't quickly enough and hits her head on the ceiling. Owen crazily screams, exclaiming they were going to die. But Alejandro managed to paralyze him by pressing his shoulder. Bridgette and Lindsay, one next to other, seem really afraid. Bridgette prays and Lindsay crosses her fingers, arms and legs for luck. Noah's seat belt rips off; he doesn't seem surprised, though, even adding a simple yet bitterly sarcastic "Perfect". Some rats are seen jumping from the plane, with some tiny parachutes, with Ezekiel doing another cameo (he is crouching and watching the rats' escape).

They reach an icy location, where the plane tries to land, but ends up crashing. DJ opens the exit door and falls, when the other come by and accidentally push him down. One by one they all fall, lastly, Owen jumps on top of them. Then, Chris appears and welcome everyone to the Yukon, laughing as he does so.

They appear again, one next to the other, everyone is shivering, with Chris in front of them ready to announce the challenge. Heather asks angrily, where were their jackets. Chris said to them to calm down and that he ordered coats for each one of them. Everyone looked happy about this, until he indicated that they would just be ready in a couple of weeks.

So, due to this, Courtney suggests everyone to hurdle for warmth. Cody tries to hug Gwen, but she doesn't let him. Instead, Sierra happily embraces him. Izzy who was holding Alejandro shoulders cuddles him, followed by running Lindsay and LeShawna, who hug him too. Surprisingly, Noah hugs Bridgette, but she explains to him that she has a boyfriend. Owen comes by telling Noah can cuddle him and strongly doing so.

Chef brings some coco for Chris, and he accepts it. Meanwhile, Alejandro lovingly stares at Bridgette and she does the same. Owen reaches Chris and asks him if he is going to finish his drink. Sierra, also joins the scene, saying that is obvious he is going to because it's his favorite drink. Before Chris could disagree with her, she adds that is his favorite just being tomato juice. Chris is surprised and oddly speaks that this information isn't on his fansite. He tries to ask where did she get found out about this, and she confesses that she went to his high school and interviewed all his old teachers for her unauthorized biography about him. Before she could spoil a bit of what they said, Chris put his hand in front of Sierra's mouth to prevent her from talking.

Chris informs them that the challenge will involve jumping from ice floe to ice floe until they reach the other side of the frozen river (which thanks to Global Warming... and Owen isn't frozen anymore according to him) and then climb onto a sled where one teammate will have to pull the rest to the finish line.

Tyler is the first to start and he quickly slips and falls into the icy water. Lindsay greets him and calls him Noah and he attempts to correct her but she doesn't listen, prompting him to complain in the confessional about how nobody pays attention to him and how he's the most ignored character in the fanblogs. Noah and Owen watch Izzy skip across the ice with great ease and decide it can't be very complicated. Noah tries to go ahead but slips and falls flat on his face, and when Owen jumps on the same ice floe to try and help him he catapults Noah backwards into a mound of snow. Fearful of Noah's reaction, he gets up and goes ahead even though Noah doesn't hold a grudge to him for it.

While Gwen tries to make it across, the floe she was on breaks in two and she begins to fall. Cody tries to go back and help her, but he bumps into Owen and then both are attacked by a polar bear in the water. Much to their fortune, Sierra saves them by knocking out the bear with a block of ice, but she also unwittingly knocks Cody and Owen into the freezing water. Owen pees himself and this prompts Cody to try and swim away while Sierra chases him.

Bridgette almost slips, but gets saved by Alejandro despite her stating they're on different teams. He says he finds teams "irrelevant" and Bridgette is immediately charmed. In the confessional she says that she finds that when Geoff is around she doesn't pay attention to other guys, mostly because they're making out all the time, but that now he isn't here she is more vulnerable to Alejandro's charm. Alejandro jumps onto a different ice floe and when Bridgette tries to follow she trips and lands on him, accidentally kissing him. Bridgette immediately apologizes but when she sees Alejandro smiling happily, she claims that she has a boyfriend but hesitates when doing so, saying she "kinda has a boyfriend". In the confessional she sternly says she was flustered but she wasn't falling for Alejandro even though her body language says otherwise.

DJ makes it to his team's sled first so he has to pull. Courtney and Heather get to theirs at the same time, but according to Chris in the event of a tie, the puller has to go alphabetically so Courtney has to pull. Tyler makes it to his team's sled and finds he must pull while Izzy, who made it second, has to be on board their sled which is actually made of radioactive containers which Izzy mistakes for radio containers and dips herself in radioactive waste while "looking for their radio".

Courtney and Heather soon pick up Cody and Sierra while Tyler and Izzy pick up Noah, who is startled by Izzy's radioactive coverage. Meanwhile, DJ and LeShawna pick up Lindsay. Alejandro and Bridgette make it to a checkpoint and decide to wait for their respective teams; meanwhile, Alejandro continues his attempts to charm Bridgette, doing so quite successfully. Team Victory finds themselves at a disadvantage because DJ, wracked with sorrow because he "misses his momma" and the frozen tundra reminds him of her freezer, cries, causing his tears to be frozen and temporarily blinding him. As a result of this, his team gets lost and he accidentally hits a baby seal with the sled. He wants to help, but LeShawna and Lindsay trick him into going on without doing so by telling him the seal is fine, when it had in fact fallen off a cliff. After they leave the seal, ticked off, climbs back up.

Team Amazon picks-up Gwen and Heather insists on whipping Courtney to make her go faster, causing Courtney to say in the confessional that she'll get back at Heather for it.

Alejandro sees his team approaching and before he leaves, he convinces Bridgette to have "one more accident" and leans in to kiss her. Bridgette reciprocates but when she's about to kiss him he moves away and she accidentally kisses a pole, thus sticking her tongue to it. Alejandro leaves on his team's sled while Chris makes Bridgette sing about her peril with Team Amazon as back-up singers. They proceed to sing the hard rock oriented song "Stuck to a Pole". Team Amazon moves ahead while they, reluctantly, leave Bridgette behind who still stuck to the pole.

Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot picks up Owen, but his weight makes it almost impossible for Tyler to pull the sled. They eventually make it to an icy bridge, but Owen's weight makes the bridge break and just as they're about to plummet into the frozen river below, Tyler grips the side of the ice and his team climbs back up onto the surface. In the confessional, Tyler claims he has super strong fingers and that in his first piano lesson, he broke the piano. The team jumps back onto the sled and begin to race down the hill to get to the finish line.

Near the finish line, Team Victory is in the lead and about to make it across the finish line first, while Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot is far behind. Noah tells Owen to lean forward on the sled so his weight will push them forth and this strategy makes them arrive narrowly in first place, seconds before Team Victory could cross the finish line. Team Amazon makes it there last, making Heather complain that they lost despite "all her hard work" when in fact she did nothing, something which is met with glares by her team. Chris tells Team Amazon to relax since they are safe from elimination because even though Team Victory made it in second, they left Bridgette behind, meaning they didn't have all of their teammates with them. Meaning they are put up for elimination again.

During the elimination ceremony, Team Victory is shown, with Bridgette still having her tongue stuck to the pole. Chef enters the room, which makes Chris question who is piloting the plane. Chef tells him the situation is handled, and it is shown that a Chef-balloon is shown in the pilot's room. Chris begins to pass out barf bags, with Lindsay getting one first and LeShawna second. DJ is seen in the bottom two for the third time in a row, and he gets the final barf bag once again. Bridgette gets eliminated for costing her team the victory. Before she goes away, she warns her team that Alejandro is evil and is deceiving everybody, but due to her still having her tongue stuck to the pole, nobody could understand her and Chris throws her out. When falling, Bridgette tries to open her parachute but it gets tangled on the pole prompting Chris to comment that it would have been a good idea to remove the pole from her face.

In the final confessional, Alejandro comments that Bridgette was expendable and that so is everybody else. He closes the episode by grimly stating that he would pick everybody off one by one. Then, in the confessional, Tyler states that since he saved his teams lives everyone will know who he is now. Lindsay then opens the doors, and she apologizes, calling him Noah again. Chris then says "Will Noah ever get Lindsay to remember him?" Tyler then yells, "It's Tyler!" Chris then signs of the episode.

 * This is one of the first times in Total Drama Island and Total Drama World Tour that Noah has seen to be optimistic and willing to take on a challenge that involved more than brain power. Sadly, he winds up falling face first onto an iceberg and he was flown into a pile of snow by Owen.
 * However, his strategy directly leads to his team winning the challenge.
 * It's also the first time Noah seems to actively contribute his own input and smarts in a challenge, when telling Owen to lead forward as their sled is going downhill to gain momentum.
 * Sierra and Alejandro both claim to know about pressure points in this episode. Coincidentally, both are newcomers.
 * Tyler shows that he has amazingly strong fingers by pulling his whole team (including Owen) and a sled full of radioactive material up from a cliff. He said that he tried to be muscial, but his fingers crushed the keys on his piano so that was why he took up sports. He also doesn't seem to have a problem singing.
 * Noah calls the most people by their first names in this episode (Tyler, Owen, & Chris).
 * The recap in the beginning of this episode shows Harold hanging behind a sumo wrestler, a scene that interestingly enough wasn't in the previous episode, but neither was Duncan revealing to have survived and opened his parachute in time.

Goofs

 * Lindsay's Name Goof(s): She calls Tyler "Noah" throughout this episode.
 * At the beginning when all the contestants are standing next to one another waiting to find out about the challenge, the order changes when Lindsay, Izzy and LeShawna run to hug Alejandro, and Noah goes to hug Bridgette, but just before Chris starts the challenge, they all seem to be standing back to where they were in the beginning.
 * Also, at the beginning, when everyone falls out of the plane to the ground, Team Amazon falls down with the others. Although, they should've still been in first class.
 * When everyone falls off the plane, Gwen and Izzy are nowhere to be seen.
 * When Chris was drinking his hot chocolate, he made slurping sounds and put the cup in tall angle (as if he had just finished it), then Owen asked if Chris was going to finish it. Owen should have known that Chris had already drank all of it by the hints.
 * When Chris announces that it is time for a song, the Amazons arrive. However, in a previous scene, they had just passed Team Chris Is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot, putting them ahead of where Chris and Bridgette were.
 * When Bridgette leans in to kiss Alejandro, the pole is not even in the shot. If she had in fact leaned over far enough to kiss the pole, she would have likely fallen over. However, this may not be a goof but rather an attempt by the animators to create more of a surprise when it happens.
 * Ezekiel's Sweatshirt pull-strings, which normally appear at the top of his sweatshirt, appear in the cuffs when shown breifly with the rats.
 * Bridgette's tongue stretches to an impossible length multiple times throughout the episode, while she is stuck to the pole.
 * When Bridgette gets stuck to a pole, her bottom lip matches her top but, it's normally shown to be lighter.
 * When Courtney cannot figure out how to attach her harness, she is holding it trying to figure it out, however, Heather whips her and it is fully attached
 * Alejandro is seen shivering when the teams are listening to Chris explain the challenge but later he doesn't seem cold throughout the rest of the episode and especially when he takes off his shirt for Bridgette. Though this was likely a part of his plan.
 * In the recap, while Chris is showing a clip of Team Victory's commercial in Super Happy Crazy Fun Time Japan, DJ is shown to have a terrified/near-to-crying look on his face and his arms up. However, in the actual episode, DJ is shown with his mouth open, and his arms down.
 * When Noah falls face first on the iceberg, he is shown to fall right in the middle of it, but when Owen jumps on to help and catapults him, he is seen to be right on the edge of the iceberg.
 * When Team Chris Is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot picks up Owen, Tyler is having problems running on the ice because of his court shoes, yet, in earlier scenes, like the ones where Noah and Alejandro get on the sled, he's seen perfectly capable of running on the ice.However this is before they picked up Owen.This may be because of Owen's weight.
 * Even though Owen and Tyler were seen in the water with Cody, Cody is the only one to have been frozen throughout the episode. It is possible that Owen was warm enough not to freeze because he peed in the water and that Tyler didn't freeze because he got out a lot quicker than Cody, almost instantly after his conversation with Lindsay.
 * Technically, Cody should have pulled the sled instead of Courtney since he was the first Amazon across. Though it's possible that Chris excused it since Cody was frozen, or Cody went farther than needed to reach the sled.
 * Originally, the race is shown going uphill. However later when the contestants are pulling the sled, there is no indication of the race being uphill.
 * The top to the radioactive crate on Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot's sled dissapears after Izzy sits inside of it.
 * When Sierra throws Cody, he has a full row of teeth.
