Justin

Justin, labeled The Eye Candy of the group, was a camper on Total Drama Island on the Screaming Gophers team. He is currently a cast member and the main antagonist of Total Drama Action. In Total Drama Action, he was on the Killer Grips. Justin will not be returning for Total Drama Musical, but his antagonist role looks as though it will be filled by a new character.

Total Drama Island
Justin joined Total Drama Island so he can donate his winnings to the “Unattractive-Looking People Wish Foundation”. Justin is a very handsome guy, has large washboard abs that he takes particular pride in, and is a highly accomplished and very successful male model and has became somewhat of a sex symbol; in fact, even sharks refuse to eat him due to his good looks. Many of the girls (even Eva and possibly Owen) liked him, especially Katie and Sadie. Due to being kicked off so early, Justin was really a very minor character in the show with very little characterization. However, his full character comes to light in the special, where it is revealed that he is actually a liar and uses his power over women (and Owen) to get what he wants. He is also narcissistic and seems to give off the impression that he thinks nothing of those less hunky as him (as shown with Noah). Before Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island, Justin only has lines in the first episode of the series. He didn't even speak when he got eliminated!

In Not So Happy Campers - Part 1, Justin came to the island and more than half the girls loved him first look, like Courtney, Katie, Sadie, Eva and a male... Owen. Owen wanted to know where Justin got those cool pants and Justin replied they were worn out. Those were the only lines Justin had for a while. In Not So Happy Campers - Part 2, Justin jumps off the 1000 foot cliff into the lake, not worrying and didn't reach the safe zone but thanks to his looks the sharks didn't eat him. They just helped him back on land.

Despite not speaking in most of the episodes he appeared in, Justin did show one sign of his underhandedness in The Big Sleep. While the other contestants were trying to stay awake in the challenge, Justin stood completely still with his eyes wide open for several hours. Trent and Gwen were amazed by his complete focus, but when they tried to speak to him he gave them no response. They then realized that he had painted fake eyes over his eyelids when Eva caught him cheating. He was then disqualified since he had been sleeping the whole time (though Chris commented it was really cool). In the episode Not Quite Famous, Justin was unanimously chosen by his team to compete in the talent show when he spilled water on his chest and made it sizzle. He proceeded to pose on stage and pour water on himself. Justin failed to win immunity for his team, however. Justin was voted off in this episode because Heather convinced her alliance (Beth and Lindsay), Owen (who she bribed with cake), and Izzy to vote him off.

Though it is unknown how strong they are, Justin allegedly has "powers", according to Izzy. He can manipulate any girl into doing or saying whatever he wants. His powers have also been shown (although to a certain extent) to work on men as well, as he has been able to distract Owen (explaining why Owen made some homosexual comments around him), and he was able to get the keys to the plane from the powerhouse Chef himself. His "powers" also seemed to have worked on Chris, as Chris commented that he got on the show simply because of his looks. Justin is fully aware of his supposed powers, as revealed in the one-hour special. There seems to be different levels of his powers: his voice, his eyes, and taking his shirt off. Heather used his "shirt off" powers to distract Gwen in Total Drama Island's season finale, but Owen also got distracted. By just looking in his eyes, girls will spill any secrets to him if he asks. When he takes his shirt off, he can convince any girl to hand over 1 million dollars to him.

Justin has a feud with Noah. This feud seems to have originated when Justin voted off Noah and later escalated during their stay in Playa Des Losers, probably because of the character's enormous personality differences. The feud is shown in special, Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island!, when Noah calls Justin the "anti-me" and later, by the end of the episode, Noah attacks Justin with fish. He is then finished off by Izzy when Izzy slams a bucket over his head. Justin started to walk away and wouldn't have made it to the dock and season two, however his parachute got caught in the stampede and he was pulled onto the dock with the rest of them. He was technically the last person to make it to the dock and season two.

Total Drama Action
Justin's character is much more touched upon than in the previous season, revealing that he is a sneaky and manipulative player. Justin takes up the mantle of the main antagonist for the second season. However, Justin's role as an antagonist is noticeable different then Heather's. Where as Heather is willing to take charge and isn't afraid to get her hands dirty, Justin prefers to get others to do his work for him (as he fears ruining his good looks). Also, while Heather was not afraid to expose her true nature to those she disliked, Justin seems to keep his true nature hidden to all. Justin also seems to actually befriend some cast mates (as he actually seemed angry about Owen's elimination, though it's possible that he simply thought he could manipulate easier then Courtney), where as Heather purely avoided making friends. Justin also doesn't like to do very much thinking and prefers others coming up with his plans for him (in the later half of the second season he talks to his brain as though he hasn't used it in a while). Justin shows that he is very bossy when it comes to his looks (as he causes some rooming issues in the boys cabin for his skin treatment), similar to Heather's actions in the girls cabin in the first season. Justin is also very frightened of the simplest of injuries as he fears they will ruin his good looks (though in Masters of Disasters he gave up trying to protect his looks as no matter what he did he just wound up failing). He is often seen with Beth, who is currently falling in love with him. Much like Heather, he is willing to pawn people in order to get what he wants. He is constantly flirting with Beth and Lindsay and as a result, the two are very supportive of him (though he has shown he cares nothing for them). He also puts people in debt to him (as he had Gwen throw the prison challenge in exchange for eliminating Trent). Justin's manipulative ways have proven to be effective through out the season, he is responsible for the elimination of Gwen, Izzy (the second time) and Trent (though he was not completely alone in this case).

In Monster Cash, Justin is quickly drawn into a monster chase along with the other campers. When Justin is caught, his "powers" apparently cause Chef Hatchet to lower him gently into the holding pit (instead of just dropping him like the rest of the campers). During the alien challenge in Alien Resurr-eggtion, Justin teams up with Beth, LeShawna and Lindsay. It is here that he starts to show signs of nastiness when he makes sarcastic remarks at Lindsay, who is too awed by his beauty to realize that Justin was insulting her. Justin and the rest of his team loses the challenge when Chef Hatchet (Alien Mother) traps them with a full dose of "alien slime" (green paint in reality), to which he thinks feels good.

His true nature finally comes to full light in Beach Blanket Bogus, where he seems to be aware that Beth does actually have feelings for him. Justin tags along with her at the beach and tells Beth that he is the only one who did not receive a friendship bracelet. She gives him the one on her wrist, saying it's sweaty, but Justin says it's red and gladly accepts it. Justin reveals in the confessional that he is willing to do anything to win. He then looks at his bracelet and (with a mocking voice) asks if Beth wants to have an alliance, foreshadowing his plans to lure Beth into an alliance where he can manipulate her whenever he wishes to. This shows that he is a truly manipulative person who is even willing to use love as a way to get what he wants, suggesting he is quite narcissistic. Even Chris, who is watching, thinks they are related, which he doubt.

In 3:10 to Crazytown, Justin starts to find ways of getting out of challenges by stating that he has model rights. Justin has also been shown to treat Beth poorly, as she said that he told her that she looked like a horse (though she first thought it was a compliment until she thought about it). By eavesdropping, Justin was the one who found out about Trent throwing challenges for Gwen and informed the team. In front of the Killer Grips, Justin accused Gwen of cheating to get to the final two, and told her to prove that she wasn't in an alliance with Trent. This forced Gwen to tell the Killer Grips to vote off Trent. Justin and the rest of his team eliminated Trent out of anger for throwing so many challenges.

Justin seems to have taken on Trent's role as team captain for the Grips, as he appears to be calling the shots for his team for most of The Chefshank Redemption, especially having a say in who does a challenge and telling his teammates to relax when they begin to doubt that Gwen will repay her debt to them. The Grips do win their first challenge in this episode and Gwen is eliminated. He continues to use his charms to get himself out of doing the dirty work, as well as continue to lure Beth further into his influential grasp. Later on, Lindsay becomes team captain.

In One Flu Over the Cuckoos, to avoid reading the medical books, he decides to enlist Beth's help. He asks her, if he squints when he reads. Beth replies with "I'm distracted by your shirt", there fore Justin rips off his shirt and Beth agrees to read the whole book to him. Justin smiles and relaxes, getting his way once again.

In The Sand Witch Project, Justin originally wants to be the "serial killer" for the Grips, but Lindsay convinces the team to have Beth perform the task. Later, during the first part of the challenge, Justin is "scared" by Beth, and lets out a pathetic scream, saying that he can't do any better without risking his vocal chords. Justin ends up being in the final two with Lindsay at the end of the episode before DJ asks to leave the competition.

In Masters Of Disasters, Justin is one of the many characters to openly doubt Beth's "boyfriend's" existence, once Beth pulls out a card with her "boyfriend's" statistics on the back, saying he knew that was where she got the information about her "boyfriend" as he is a "professional male model". Justin is visibly uneasy with Beth's fantasies of having both her "boyfriend" and himself simultaneously, much to Beth's annoyance. For the first time, Justin is visibly injured in a challenge when he is pelted with golf balls and covered in sores; he is devastated about this and is convinced he will never get his skin care line endorsement because of the injuries he sustained. He later shows mild incompetence when he fights with Lindsay over who gets to have the numbers to the combination lock during the second challenge, causing them to lose their only advantage in the challenge when they drop the paper containing the code into the water, washing the numbers away. Izzy, of all people, shows contempt with both Lindsay and Justin (former team captains of the Grips) and claims she is surrounded by loons, but Justin seems not to understand what she means.

In Full Metal Drama, Justin begins to seemingly lose his effect on Beth and Lindsay, which greatly worries him. They both suddenly begin to resist his charm, something which rarely happens to him. He thinks math is for ugly people, implying that he hates math. He ends up asking Izzy if she thought he was cute, to which she replies negatively, saying she never thought he was really that cute. This frustrates Justin, and leads to him eventually swaying Lindsay and Beth's vote by using his new hair flip. If he had not have convinced others to vote for Izzy, it is clear that he most likely would've been the one leaving, as Beth and Lindsay said they were going to vote for him. He also got another injury on his face and then he thinks he can't take any more abuse to his body or he'll lose it.

During Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, Justin's manipulative ways come out more. At the bank vault challenge, Lindsay and Beth were stumped as to what the lock combination. Justin goes over to Chris, stating that hot guys like the two need to stick together. In exchange for the combination code, Justin promised Chris a talk about "guy stuff" and a shoulder rub. Justin's closeness towards Chris began to freak him out. At Courtney's return, she begins slaving for her new team and asks Justin to do something. Due to his modeling, he asks her if there's anything that won't get grease on his epidermis. When Owen is voted off he was furious that Courtney wasn't voted off and that Owen is leaving. He even gives his award to Owen.

Justin isn't seen much in One Million Bucks, B.C.. In the beginning, he was commenting about his body and later, he is mysteriously not in the fire building competition. He returns in the second challenge, a duel, where he ties with Harold since Lindsay told him the tar felt very good. His antagonist role is seemingly not shown anymore, as Courtney seems to be the new antagonist.

In Million Dollar Babies, he is seen in the beginning inside the boys trailer, saying that he was going to move to Canada and then realized that he is already there. Justin shows that he does not recognize the game badminton when he asked questions about it. Justin thinks that there was no badminton movie and the idea of one would be lame. Chris immediately gets defensive and said that there was a badminton movie and it was very un-lame. Justin, along with everyone (except Heather), gets mad at LeShawna for what she said about them when she went on her spa trip. He is then put up against LeShawna in the final part of the challenge in a "slam dunk" challenge. He dribbles the ball around the Gaffers and steals Heather's wig before shooting. He lost to Leshawna when she hit him with a basketball and caused him to go into the hoop. He then forgives LeShawna after the her apology cheer. At the end of the episode, he helps the Killer Grips win the challenge with their Chris cheer.

In Dial M for Merger, Justin spends the episode distraught that Beth had accidentally hit him in the face, thus giving him a black eye. He considered himself a "circus freak". He was content with his work towards the end of the challenge, until the contents of the bombs the contestants were diffusing exploded. Towards the beginning of the episode, he is shown to try and calm down Beth, telling her everything will be okay, but it does not work. Once he learns the teams are now merged, he begins to 'conversations' with his brain as a running gag throughout the episode. This may have payed off as in both challenges, he used his hand mirror to his advantage. (Using it to deflect lasers and the sun to cut the wiring on the bomb, even though he failed in both.) At the end, he says he and his brain are though as friends.

In Super Hero-ld, Justin forms a Guys' Alliance between himself, Duncan, and Harold after he notices that they are outnumbered, four to three. Justin creates a super hero caller "Timberman," strangely similar to Beth's hero. Justin tells the guys to vote off Courtney, even though she is invincible. Justin presumably voted for LeShawna, who Duncan suggested.

Audition tape
In Justin's audition tape, it shows him sitting on the beach holding up a starfish while in the background a voice repeats his name three times. A dolphin then swims onto shore in an effort to be closer to Justin.

Camp TV
Justin was one of the characters to appear in Camp TV. His design looks nearly identical to his current design. The only real difference is his face, which had dotted eyes and a much sweeter smile. This may or may not indicate that Justin was not originally intended to become an antagonist on Camp TV, but this is hard to determine as he did not appear in the promo.

Trivia

 * In Million Dollar Babies, Justin mentions moving to Canada, suggesting that he doesn't already live there.
 * He then says, "Except (he is) already there," implying he changed his mind.
 * Justin returns as a competitor on Total Drama Action.
 * Justin only talks independently in the 1st and 27th episodes of Total Drama Island (though he is much more talkative in Total Drama Action).
 * Justin is one of the only characters with an everyone relationship.
 * Justin is one of several characters to have shown some form of nudity: in One Million Bucks, B.C. When Harold is about to fall off his pillar, he snags on to Justin's loincloth, pulling them down in the process, thus revealing his genitals (blurred out of course)
 * When Owen is revealed as the winner on Cartoon Network's Total Drama Island Interactive page, it shows Justin in the background with brown hair and lighter skin.
 * Also in Cartoon Network's TDI Interactive page, in the Food Fight game Justin (and Cody)is an enemy, despite being eliminated five episodes before (however, he was only showed as an enemy and didn't actually appear in the game). However Food Fight was a slightly edited version of Dodgeball Desperation, a game for an episode Justin was still in, so it is likely that this was just a technical goof.
 * In Full Metal Drama, Justin beings to worry when Lindsay and Beth begin to stop gushing over him, as he is afraid that he has lost his ability to control women, but he is still able to sway their votes at the end of the episode by using a new hair flip.
 * He used to be Izzy's boyfriend. Izzy claims that she broke up with him because he was a liar. Justin's side of the alleged story is unknown, but his alleged manipulative side that is now showing in Total Drama Action insinuates that Izzy is telling the truth about him.
 * He was outsmarted by Cody in the Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island! (Cody tells him that the paparazzi arrived and Justin falls for it). This could be a potential weakness for Justin: an undying thirst for attention.
 * It is probable that Justin snapped after he was eliminated, as he was acting friendly and kind before his elimination. He may have figured that he could not trust anyone after he was eliminated so early (and to Heather) and thus decided to start using his looks to get whatever he wanted and not care for others. However, even early on before his elimination, he was not above cheating, as he painted his eyelids in The Big Sleep to fool the others into thinking he had gone over two days without sleep, possibly foreshadowing his transformation into a main antagonist.
 * Katie, Sadie, Beth, and technically Lindsay appear to be the only girls who are still in love with him:
 * Heather dislikes him (she is shown to be disgusted with him in Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon).
 * Eva hates him, though fell for his trap in the special.
 * Gwen hates him, though she easily gave in to his charms in the special.
 * Lindsay likes Tyler, but also fell for his charms in the special; though she mentions Tyler frequently in the new season, she is seen flirting and latching herself onto Justin as much as Beth has.

 * Izzy hates him and likes Owen.
 * Bridgette has had almost no contact with Justin and is in love with Geoff.

 * Justin is the last male remaining on the Killer Grips.
 * Also, Justin is the last male from the original Screaming Gophers that is still in the competition.
 * Despite it appearing that he cares for himself only, Justin has shown care for some members on his team:
 * He saved Lindsay from falling in Masters of Disasters, although this may have have happened at the fear he would lose one of his "girls."
 * He was angry at Owen's elimination in Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, although this may happened because he was furious that Courtney was safe.
 * However, he ended up giving Owen his Gilded Chris Award possibly as a sign he views Owen as a friend.
