Dwayne

Dwayne Sr. was a contestant on Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race and was paired with Junior as a part of Father and Son.

Personality
Dwayne is a father from the suburbs with a great family and a son, who he believes is growing up too fast. He signed them up for the show as a great way to spend some time with his son, show him the world, and maybe share a few laughs. Dwayne is blessed in the good intentions department, but totally lacking in street smarts; he's hopelessly ignorant about the world outside of North American life.

Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race
Dwayne is introduced with his son, Junior in None Down, Eighteen to Go - Part 1, where he hopes to spend time with his son and see the world. In the first challenge, he and his son initially try to take the elevator, but he hits all the buttons by accident and slows it down. They take the stairs instead and end up on the first flight of Morocco.

In None Down, Eighteen to Go - Part 2, the two have trouble picking spices, causing them to lose their lead. They fall even further behind after their camel collapses. Realizing that they are in last, Dwayne downs the entire bowl of stew, but suffers from temporary blindness due to the spice, and his son has to guide him to the finish. The two finish second to last, sending the LARPers home.

The two of them ride a moped to their next stop in French is an Eiffel Language, but are delayed when Tom tosses the carpet he bought in Morocco, blocking Dwanye's vision, prompting them to crash. He tells the fashion bloggers this, but he and his son back away slowly when the bloggers laugh nervously. Dwayne is drawn by his son in the caricature challenge and they manage to navigate through the catacombs and advace to the next leg, getting fifth place.

Dwayne accidentally embarrasses his son in Mediterranean Homesick Blues, when Junior tries to impress Carrie and shake her hand, only to shake her hand himself. He introduces themselves to her while unintentionally humiliating his son. He makes up for it by getting the clue from the dorsal fin of the shark, which impresses his son. He helps make the sand castle and despite being rejected at first, they get approved the second time. They struggle to start a boat but thanks to Junior, make it first at the Carpet of Completion but have to wait twenty minutes as part of a penalty because Dwayne read the clue card to Junior prematurely before reaching shore. Despite the penalty and a failed attempt to bribe Don, the two finish fourth.

Dwayne struggled throughout Bjorken Telephone. While claiming to have a good memory, he failed repeatedly to recite the Icelandic sentence. Eventually Junior manages to say it correctly and they are one of the last pairs to board the helicopter. During the "Either/Or" challenge, the two decide to mine for fossils, and Dwayne is nearly struck by a pick axe after slipping on ice. Before heading out of the cave, they manage to find the fossil the Vegans lost and take it to the finish. At the Carpet of Completion, the Vegans reveal the fossil was theirs, but Don sends the Vegans back despite Dwayne's attempt to give them their fossil back, allowing Dwayne and Junior to finish eighth. The vegans escape elimination despite coming in last, but Dwayne incurs the wrath of Laurie.

Things go smoother for Dwayne and Junior in Brazilian Pain Forest. The two were able to get the the clue from the mitten filled with ants and make the head dress and tail for the local judge. They had an encounter with Jacques and Josee as they get a clue from a coconut, but after Josee tackles him, Dwayne hands the clue off to Junior, telling him to save himself as Jacques chases him. Despite this incident, the two finish sixth in this leg of the race.

Dwayne and his son continue to progress through A Tisket, a Casket, I'm Gonna Blow a Gasket. He does tell the cameras that he does want his son to be able to think for himself, but when Junior asks for ridiculous stuff, he grounds him. Since Junior was the one to get bit by the ants in the last episode, Dwayne had to be placed in a coffin while Junior pushed him into an open grave. The two finish in sixth place.

Dwayne is seen driving the donkey cart to Hawaii with a couple of other teams in Hawaiian Honeyruin. He talks with Taylor and Kelly, remarking how nice it is to see another parent and child competing and getting along. In the Botch or Watch, he watches Junior dive for the wedding rings. At the walk over hot coals, he offers to do it but due to Junior not wanting to wear the Hawaiian skirt, he is carried by his son. The two finish 6th for the third time in a row.

Dwayne and Junior are first on the second plane in Hello and Dubai, where he gets the idea to form an alliance with Kelly and Taylor, an idea that Junior promptly rejects. While on the plane, Kelly and Dwayne talk about their children. Dwayne eventually angers Kelly after he words his advice wrongly and offends her and Taylor in the process and gets drenched in water. The two try the serve challenge, but switch to cleaning the windows and manage to finish in sixth place, once again.

Dwayne has a rough time in New Beijinging. He and Junior were able to sky dive into the Bird's Nest Stadium with no trouble but had problems with the kebab as he tried to grab a scorpion only to be stung repeatedly and be delusional due to the venom. He was driving the rickshaw and despite all the issues, they finish next to last.
