The only reason why Blainely was introduced was so they could do the wedding challenge without bringing back Izzy (who recently broke up with him anyway). There was absolutely no storyline devoted to her. She was quite literally just a tool.

This is particularly ironic because I've read in an interview with Todd Kauffman that Blainely really was the original concept for the host of total drama. She was swapped last minute with Chris McClain.
