Antagonists always narrowly evade elimination through pure luck in this series at least at one point, Courtney would've easily gone home in the first challenge she was in if her lawyers hadn't given her immunity that week, Heather got spared in Island in two episodes (Cody and Beth's eliminations) and Alejandro was extremely lucky that Sierra blew up the plane. So it isn't very shocking that Courtney got lucky in Total Drama Action.
