Are We There Yeti?

'''The campers are stuck in the middle of the woods where they have to race back to the camp to win. Another camper is voted off the island.'''

Recap
The campers have a quite literal rude awakening when they wake up in the middle of the wilderness. Because Chris is hosting an awards show that episode, Chef is hosting and tells the campers that they must find their way back at camp, Gwen because angry because they left them in the wild with Heather and would rather swim in a shark infested water. Duncan acts like a coward (to steal night goggles from Chef) and Heather feels he is up to something. Duncan and Owen are pair up while Heather and Gwen are forced to be partners.

Duncan and Owen quickly run into the forest to get away from the girls to confuse them. They check their supplies and notice they have no food which worries Owen but Duncan remains calm and thinks they will get out of the forest quickly with the goggles he stole from Chef. The boys quickly check the map and Duncan thinks that they go right while Owen thinks that camp is in the opposite direction. Meanwhile the girls use a compass and go north and Heather believes they will be fine if they are not killed by Sasquatchanakwa which Gwen feels that it is a story made to scare them.

At camp Chef reads a book and seems to forget that the campers are in the forest. Duncan and Owen climb on a mountain and Owen admits that Chef's story scares him but Duncan thinks that the story is only to scare them then he quickly spots the girls and teases them thinking they are going the wrong way but Gwen tells that their compass tells them to go north where camp is, Duncan checks the map a knows they went the wrong way and Heather teases them, Duncan and Owen are forced to jump in the river but Owen refuses to do it and is pushed off by Duncan.

Back at camp Chef goes through the campers stuff and finds Heather's makeup, Duncan's knife, and Gwen's diary. At the river Heather and Gwen know that despite the fact that they hate each other they must work as a team in order to win because the feel that the boys could have a evil bonding which shows them having a farting contest, they finally agree and see the boys floating on a raft. Owen gets caught in a trap and while Duncan tries to get him down the girls steal their items resulting in the teams trying to steal from each other.

Later at night Heather and Gwen try to get their stuff back and find a large foot print thinking it is a prank, Gwen jumps in the bushes and knows that Sasquatchanaka is in the bush and it runs toward Duncan and Owen and chases them into a cave full of bats which chases the campers out. Heather and Gwen accept defeat and the boys offer to let them sleep with them, while boys pitch the tent Heather tells Gwen that to let them think they are strong boys, Owen ask Duncan if they should trust them and Duncan tells him to trust no one and hides the map under his shirt. The girls act like they are scared and fools the boys, Heather tells Duncan she can't sleep and starts cuddling him and he allows her.

The next morning Duncan notices that the map is missing and becomes angry over it, Owen tells him that he has become weak but smells sticky buns made from Chef and runs toward camp faster than the girls. Unfortunately, he steers clear of the pole and eats the buns while the girls reach the pole and win. Later at the ceremony Duncan is kicked off due to Chef's hatred towards him. Indignant but glad to be leaving, he declares that he will be glad to get back to juvie. While he remains bitter with Owen and Heather mocks him, he and Gwen part on good terms. As he rides on the boat Chef scares him repetitively through the use of a Sasquatchanakwa costume.

Quotes

 * Chef: Yeah, it's me doing the recap, you got a problem with that?! Since Chris is off hosting some foo-foo award show, I'm filling in as host. And guess what? I ain't happy about it either. So sit back, shut up and watch tonight's episode of Total Drama Island.


 * Gwen: They left us in the woods! Alone! Again! With Heather! I'd rather go swimming in the shark infested water.


 * Gwen: Okay, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I actually miss Chris. Anything is better than Chef's psychopath. Why so camp cooks always look like escaped criminals? Heather: Can you hear me, Chris? I hope you enjoyed your little day off while we put up with your psychotic sidekick, who, by the way, wasn't even doing anything. He just ditched us in the woods.


 * Heather: Ok, look, we both know we don't like each other and we both probably wish we could push each other off a cliff right now. Gwen: The thought had crossed my mind.


 * Gwen: (In the Confessional) Did I feel bad about stealing from the guys? Not really. They stole from us first. All is fair in love and war and this is definitely war!


 * Chef: (to Duncan) You're finished! Duncan: Good! Get me out of here and back to juvie. At least with convicts, you know what to expect.


 * Chef: (to Duncan when they're leaving) Left, left, left, right, left! Come on, soldier! Do I bear a striking resemblance to somebody who's got all day?


 * (Duncan is walking to the Boat of Losers on the Dock of Shame) Heather: You could have scored an alliance with me, but you blew it. Gwen: You played the game well. Sorry that you lost over a few sticky buns. Owen: I-I-I- (burps) Duncan: Whatever.


 * Heather: I just want to thank everyone who got me to the final three. Courtney, I feel your pain, girl. You should not have been cheated off like that. Noah, you are one seriously smart guy, don't think I didn't noticed. And Lindsay, the most fashionable girl on the island next to me, you know you'll always be one of my BFF's.


 * Gwen: I gotta admit, I didn't really think I'd get this far. But now that I have, I might as well win.


 * Owen: Soooo, it's Owen and two hot chicks. (laughs) Partay!


 * Duncan: Just get me outta this place.(sees Sasquatchanakwa driving the boat and repetingly taking off masks of Chef and himself) Ahhhhhh! Whew. Ahhhhhh! Phew! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Nooohoho! Whew. Nyaaaaaaaa! Hoo. No! Whew. Gyaaaaaaaaaaa! Phew. etc, etc

Trivia

 * All dialog edits for this episode can be found on the Edits page.


 * This is the third episode (and second in a row) to feature a challenge that was involved with returning to camp.


 * Continuity Errors:
 * The campers reference things that are happening currently while in the confessional, despite not having access to it, as they are nowhere near it during the events of the episode. Although, it is common in episodes to show that campers are obviously in the confessional after a challenge has concluded, which is most likely the case in this episode.
 * Heather says at one point at the confessional that she feels Courtney's pain and that she shouldn't have been cheated. Heather should not know this, only Chris knows that Harold voted Courtney off, though starting in Haut Camp-ture, it is common knowledge that Courtney's elimination was due to foul play.


 * At the beginning of the episode, Chef chops up Mr. Coconut, effectively rendering him dead.


 * This is the only episode not to feature Chris Mclean, aside from the brief cameo during the recap.


 * Owen says he conquered his fear of heights, but a few days later it came back to him. He is possibly referring to DJ tossing him off the cliff during the paint ball challenge (as he seemed horrified at the incident).


 * If the guy's team had won the challenge, then Heather would have most likely been eliminated since Chef has respect for Gwen, and Heather has gotten on Chef's bad side on a few incidents.


 * With Duncan's elimination, all of the original Killer Bass (including Izzy and Katie, who switched teams at the beginning) have left the camp; Gwen, Heather and Owen were all members of the Screaming Gophers.


 * Chef calls Heather and Gwen's team "Grim and Grimmer", although it's unknown which one was "Grim" and which one was "Grimmer" (the "Grimmer" may have been Heather due to her nasty attitude, however it might have also refereed to Gwen's Gothic look).


 * When Chef is doing the recap, he gives all of the campers nick names:
 * Owen: The Chubby one
 * Duncan: The Delinquent
 * Heather: Mouthy girl
 * Gwen: The Gruesome chick


 * Goofs:
 * When the campers are running out of the bat cave, you see them carrying three bags, but Chef only gave them two.
 * None of the campers originally believe in Sasquatchanakwa, even though he appeared in many previous episodes. These include The Big Sleep, Who Can You Trust?, and No Pain, No Game.
 * One of Duncan's spikes are missing when he is sleeping. Also, his wristband is shown on the wrong arm numerous times and when he lifts up his shirt to check on the map, his section of shirt is missing.


 * Duncan is the fifth person to leave without being voted off, following Izzy (first time), Courtney, Lindsay, and DJ.


 * The challenge of this episode is very similar to that of the previous episode's.


 * When Owen was the confessional talking about his previous challenge to jump off the 1000-foot high cliff into the water, he said he was the "king of the world". This is a reference to the 1997 movie, Titanic.


 * Gwen says that the boys stole from her and Heather first, when actually, it was Heather who stole from the boys first.


 * This is the first (and so far, only) episode to feature Gwen and Heather working together..
 * It is possible that Duncan forgave Owen due to his screw-up in this episode, as seen in The Very Last Episode, Really! he took Owen's side, and they seem to remain friends through TDA.
