Wawanakwa Gone Wild!

'''The campers square off in a challenge where they must trap a certain animal without harming it. One person gets a delicious meal as a reward for catching their animal first, while two people form a temporary alliance. Two people get shot with a tranquilizer dart by an unstable contestant. Another ends up having very bad luck. This all leads up to someone getting voted off...again.'''

Recap
The episode opens with the campers walking through the camp, followed by Owen approaching Izzy with a handful of flowers with romantic intent, but she ignores him, still angry over him pushing her into The Psycho Killer in the previous episode. Owen tells her that he would never abandon her, and then he suddenly disappears. When the other campers gather to ask where Owen is, they find him caught in a snare trap, hanging in the tree above them; another trap is triggered, and a wooden cage falls on top of the other campers. Chris arrives on scene with a beaver on his head and a hunting knife to tell them to meet in the mess hall for breakfast and the next challenge; he then throws the knife to cut Owen from the tree, who lands on the cage, causing it to open and release all the animals.

In the main lodge, the campers are served paste, while Chris details the next challenge: trapping a wild animal and bringing it back to camp unharmed. After a brief lesson on rangers and game wardens, they are told the prize for winning, a meal of all their favorite foods. The campers then meet at the boat house for their animal assignments by drawing lots. Owen gets a chipmunk, Leshawna draws a frog, Duncan picks a raccoon, Gwen ends up with a duck, Geoff gets a beaver, Izzy receives a deer, and Heather ends up with a bear, much to her horror. Declaring the challenge to be impossible, Heather almost quits, until Chris tells her the punishment for failing the challenge: cleaning the communal washrooms, which are a mess thanks to Owen overdoing it on breakfast. The campers are given 60 seconds in the boat house to collect anything useful for trapping their respective animals. Inside, the campers rummage around; Heather and Gwen argue over a net, until Gwen spots some duck bait. Duncan is indecisive about what to take, but settles on a chainsaw; and Izzy grabs several crates and runs out just before time runs out, and finds a tranquilizer gun. Heather still feels she has no chance of catching a bear, and desperately goes through Izzy's crates. Knowing Heather is serious competition Duncan approaches her and offers to help her out and form an alliance to get to the final two. Heather rejects, but Duncan figures she'll be back.

Out in the woods, Gwen lays down piles of duck bait to lure the duck to her, but as it gets close, it sees her, sticks out its tongue and runs away, similar to the roadrunner. Leshawna has located a frog, and is trying to trap it with a bucket; the frog leaps away several times, but when Leshawna gets near, she falls into a deep puddle, and declares war on the frog. At the bear cave, Heather tries to lure the bear out with a pail of garbage, but a roar from inside scares her away. Duncan finds a lone raccoon and tries to sweet talk it into following him, but a large band of raccoons comes up from behind. Duncan is about to confront the lot with the chainsaw, but they stack themselves on top of each other, forming a large furry monster which resembles a transformer Combiner. Izzy is hunting deer near the camp and fires three tranquilizer darts at the nearest thing that moves, Chef. Gwen is seen chasing the duck, while Heather runs past both of them. The raccoon monster chases Duncan, firing off single raccoons like missiles until one knocks him off a cliff. Duncan recovers, only to find the furry beast sitting on his head.

Owen climbs a tree to catch a chipmunk, and he drones on about being a naturalist and being a friend to all living creatures, trying to reason with the chipmunk to come quietly; after declaring he loves the chipmunk, the rodent in question bites Owen on the nose, and the tree branch he is on breaks. Elsewhere in the woods, a horse stops at a pond for a drink of water, then collapses a when Izzy nails it with a tranquilizer. Heather is back at camp complaining about catching a bear when Gwen runs in, luring the duck with bait; she calls out to Heather to open the cage, and Gwen tosses the bait inside, catching her animal, and winning the challenge. Gwen goes on about what she wants to eat, naming various "duck" related foods, when Duncan arrives, ripping the raccoon off his head, and tossing it in the cage. Duncan repeats his offer to Heather, showing her a pair of deer antlers from Paintball Deer Hunter; in need of help and a new alliance, Heather accepts.

At a beaver dam, Geoff swims underneath to find a family of beavers sitting at a dinner table in their modestly decorated home, who then slap the intruder with their tails. Geoff tries to be friendly with them, telling them not to get him angry, but they ignore this and continue to beat him. High in the sky, the yellow airplane from previous episodes is flying overhead, when one of Izzy's tranquilizer darts hits it in the wing, causing it to fall out of the sky. Leshawna tries again to catch the frog, this time using a piece of cheese on a stick; the frog shows little interest, and Leshawna approaches closer, but falls in another deep puddle. Owen is still chasing the chipmunk, this time on the ground, but he isn't paying attention and runs into a low hanging tree branch. Duncan is explaining his plan to catch a bear, involving Heather wearing the deer outfit and luring the bear back to camp; in the confessional, Duncan reveals that his plan is a win-win for him, as he either gets an alliance with Heather, or she gets eaten.

Back at camp, Geoff brings the entire beaver dam to the cage, and dumps the family of beavers into it. A very muddy Leshawna arrives next with the frog in the bucket, and dumps it in too. With a camouflage hat and wooden antlers, Izzy is searching for a deer and finally finds one, nailing it with her tranquilizer. Thinking she has succeeded, she heads towards the fallen animal when the bear runs past, followed by Duncan. Duncan sees Izzy and asks if she's seen Heather, who then stumbles out of the brush and collapses with the tranquilizer dart stuck firmly in her butt. Owen has chased the chipmunk all the way to the camp and is trying to corral it into the cage, running all over the place and even crashing into the table where Gwen is trying to eat her specially prepared victory dinner; eventually the chipmunk goes in the cage, and Owen tells Chris to close the door, but he closes it after Owen runs into the cage behind the chipmunk. Owen is now in the cage with the other caught animals, and tries to be nice to them, but they attack him instead.

At the campfire ceremony, everyone sits down to receive their marshmallows, except for a paralyzed Heather who is strapped to a board, with the so called "butt dart" still in place. Chris tosses out the marshmallows to Geoff, Owen, Leshawna, Duncan, and bounces one off Heather's head; leaving Gwen and Izzy as the final two. While Chris is drumming up the suspense, a semi-conscious Heather tells him to just give it to Gwen already, so he does. Izzy accepts the defeat graciously, then throws a smoke bomb on the ground, and disappears. With Heather being the only contestant left who did NOT capture their animal, she is the one who has to clean the washroom. Due to her injury, she asks Duncan for help.

At the washroom, Duncan is inside cleaning while Heather is outside bossing him around; when Duncan sticks his head out the door, he sees that Heather is fine, but then goes back to acting paralyzed. When he asks about her paralysis, she tells him that it's coming back, like the memories as how she got him shot, and she will never let him forget; Duncan backs down, and goes back to scrubbing the showers.

Quotes

 * Chris: (while holding a beaver) Only seven campers remain. Who will win? Who will lose? (the beaver bites him) OW! Who will need a rabies shot thanks to this ungrateful little... (pauses, remembering he's on camera) Find out tonight on this episode of Total Drama Island.


 * Owen: Wild flowers for a wild and crazy gal...? Izzy: Oh yeah? You mean the kind you abandon and leave for dead in the hands of a chainsaw wielding psycho killer with a hook?! Owen: Me? Abandon you? Never! Never ever! (sounds of a rope being pulled) Gwen: Wasn't there just a 300-pound bag of joy talking to you? Owen: (hanging from a tree by a rope) I'm only 296! Someone set a trap. (cage falls on everyone else) ... Or two. Chris: (walks in with the beaver on his head, and then takes it off) Good morning campers! Or should I say, trappers. Ready for today's challenge? (takes out a knife and everyone gasps) Excellent! Let's chat about it over chow, shall we? Owen: He's gonna come back to untrap us, right? (Chris throws the knife, cutting the rope and making Owen hit the cage, causing it to open) Owen: (in an awkward position, obviously in pain) Good aim!


 * Duncan: (in the confessional) What are my chances of winning? I'd say they're pretty darn good because anyone who doesn't vote for me is a dead man. Are you all listening, who've been kicked off? If you don't vote for me, I'll find you.


 * Geoff: I think I have a good shot at winning. I've won student council president two years running, and I didn't even give a speech! I can do this, man!


 * Chris: You'll each have eight hours to bag an animal. Duncan: (grabs Owen) Got one. Chris: A wild animal.


 * Owen: (in the confessional) I can't believe I'm in the final seven! Can you actually see me.... winning? That would be awesome! Everyone else here totally deserves it more than I do, though. Except Heather; she's really mean. I'm not afraid of her though... Heather: (banging on the door) Owen! (Owen jumps and screams) Are you almost done in there?! Owen: (nervous) Just about done...


 * Chris: Everyone, choose an animal assignment. Owen: Chipmunk. Leshawna: Frog. Duncan: Raccoon. Gwen: Duck? Geoff: Beaver. Izzy: Deer - yes! Baggin' a doe! Heather: Bear!? (scoffs) Are you kidding me?! Chris: It's the only animal left. Heather: These degenerates get cute little froggies and wee baby duckies and I'm supposed to catch a bear with my bare hands? Chris: You do get sixty seconds in the boat house to grab any equipment that might help. Heather: Unless there's an animal trainer and a zebra carcass in there, I don't think it's going to be adequate. This is ridiculous! I'm not doing this! Chris: I don't think I've mentioned the penalty yet. Heather: (walking away) I don't care! I'll take it! Chris: Loser cleans the communal washrooms. (Everyone gasps) Owen: Sorry. (chuckles) I think I ate too much of that delicious paste. (farts)


 * Heather: I assume I'm the favorite to win. I mean, look who's left: Weird Goth Girl, a criminal, a fart machine, a party dude, a psycho hose beast, and Leshawna. And the only thing she has going for her is that she hasn't made any enemies. Whoop-tee-doo. We're not here to make friends; we're here to win (breaks nail file and throws it away), and that's exactly what I plan on doing.
 * Duncan: You can borrow my chainsaw when I'm done. Heather: Great, the bear can use it to skin me alive after he's finished mauling me!


 * Gwen: (after seeing the duck run off) Uh, last time I checked, ducks waddled.


 * Duncan: (to raccoon) Hey buddy! Hey, little pal! (raccoon turns to look at him) C'mon, let's go for a walk.


 * Duncan: (Hears chittering, turns and sees rising wall of raccoons) Oh. So that's how it's gonna be. I didn't want it to come to this but... (Pulls out and starts chainsaw) (Wall of raccoons transforms into raccoon-like monster) Duncan: (nervously) That's more than meets the eye.


 * Gwen: (after the duck outruns her) Ugh! I hate this freakin' show!


 * Gwen: Yes! I win the dinner! Bring me Duck Soup, Peking Duck, Duck a l'orange, chocolate mousse... no, chocolate Duck.


 * Duncan: (after losing the challenge to Gwen, talking to Heather) Well, I got nothing better to do. I could help you bag a bear (holds up deer antlers), "dear."


 * Heather: (in confessional, about Duncan) He's evil, manipulative, sketchy, and completely unpredictable. ...I like the way he thinks. And since I'm seriously in the market for a new alliance, bring on Mr. Delinquent!


 * Geoff: Beavers, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.


 * Owen: (to the chipmunk he's after) Work with me! You're killing me here!


 * Duncan: It's what they call a win/win situation: if Heather wins, I get an alliance. She loses... (casually) and she gets eaten by a bear.


 * Izzy: Yeah, genius runs in my family, and psycho-therapy. Once at my family barbecue, my uncle cut off his ear with a steak knife to emulate Van Gogh 'cause he's all artistic, but only chickened out and only cut half of it off! It was just like, hanging there! It was so gross! I swear, I think some of it ended up in my salad.


 * Chris: (to Geoff after he throws the three beavers and their dam into the cage) Hey man, impressive! And no rabies!


 * Izzy: I got it! It may have been a slow start... but I've finally got it! Izzy's the sharp-shooter! Banzai...! (fires a dart, which hits Heather) Yes! Haha!


 * Duncan: Have you seen Heather? Izzy: Who? Duncan: About ye tall, long dark hair, hot, (sticks fingers up like antlers) wearing deer antlers. (Heather comes out from a bush and passes out from tranquilizer dart on her butt) Izzy: Whoops... (Duncan starts to laugh maniacally at the situation, in the confessional)


 * Duncan: (to Heather) Are you sure you don't wanna go to the infirmary to get your... (chuckles) butt-dart removed? Heather: (paralyzed) Not until psycho hose beast goes down.


 * (Owen is chasing a chipmunk around and it enters the cage Owen: (To Chris) Close the cage! Close the cage! Chris: You sure? Owen: Close it! (Chris does so; Owen realizes that he's in the cage as well, along with all captured animals) Owen: Why, hello, duckie! Oh, and what a nice little raccoon you are! Next to the sweet beavers. (chuckles) (All the animals attack him) Owen: Ahhhh! I'm the naturalist! (screams)


 * Chris: Izzy, Gwen: One of you has spent your last night on Total Drama Island. Heather: (paralyzed) Just give it to Gwen already! Chris: Ehh... (he shrugs and tosses the last marshmallow to Gwen) Izzy: (casually) Ah, we've all gotta go sometime, right?. Owen: You could make out with me first, if that would cushion the blow...? Izzy: Goodnight, everybody! Thanks for comin' out! (throws a smoke pellet to the ground and vanishes; everyone else looks shocked)


 * Chris: (to Heather about cleaning the washrooms) Being the loser, you realize you still have some unfinished business.
 * Heather: (slurred) Duncan, I require your services.

Trivia

 * Running Gag: Izzy shooting anything but a deer.
 * The things that Izzy hits with her tranquilizer gun are Chef, a unicorn, a plane, and Heather.
 * This marks the first time in the Total Drama series that all the remaining contestants use the Confessional Cam.
 * This is the second episode where Izzy uses the Confessional. The first was in The Sucky Outdoors when she dressed up as a bear. This is the first time Izzy has worn her normal outfit inside the confessional.
 * Izzy's missed shots seem to be related more to overconfidence than bad aim (as it is assumed to be hard to confuse a plane and Chef with a deer). The final time was more of a mistake than a missed shot (as Heather was wearing deer antlers which could easily be confused with a real deer if her body was hidden, which it was, because Izzy was looking at a bush and Heather was moving behind it, showing only her antlers).
 * Unlike most episodes, there is no way to win invincibility in this episode's challenge since Gwen (the winner) received the final marshmallow.
 * Despite Gwen winning the challenge, she couldn't have the dinner since Owen smashed it (chasing his chipmunk) before Gwen could start eating.
 * Izzy leaves the island for a second time in this episode. Izzy was informally eliminated in Up the Creek, when she runs off when the RCMP comes for her. This time, however, her elimination is official, but she still did not take the Dock of Shame, instead, disappearing in a puff of smoke.
 * Four campers (and Chef) sustain injuries or endure mishaps in this episode:
 * Geoff: slapped by beavers.
 * Owen: bitten on the nose by a chipmunk and later is attacked by all of the animals in the cage after accidentally being locked in the cage.
 * Duncan: knocked off a cliff by a raccoon, which latches itself onto his head.
 * Heather: shot by a tranquilizer dart on accident by Izzy and is rendered paralyzed for the rest of the episode.
 * Chef: shot by three tranquilizer darts, courtesy of Izzy.
 * With Izzy's elimination, all of the official Total Drama Couples at that point in time (Lindsay and Tyler, Izzy and Owen, Gwen and Trent, Courtney and Duncan, Bridgette and Geoff, and Harold and Leshawna) have been separated.
 * Duncan and Heather form an alliance in this episode, but it ends very quickly. This alliance is never again mentioned again except for in Are We There Yeti? when Heather says to Duncan, "You could've rocked an alliance with me, but you blew it."
 * This episode includes several references to classic movies and TV shows:
 * Gwen's duck behaves like the Looney Tunes character, Roadrunner, both in its running style and capabilities, and in the way it stuck its tongue out at Gwen and kicked up its heels before dashing off. Gwen stands in for Wile E. Coyote in these scenes.
 * The Transformers Duncan's line: "That's more than meets the eye." The raccoons join together as one, similar to the Combiner teams (Constructions, Aerialbots, etc.)
 * The Incredible Hulk Geoff's line: "Beavers, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."
 * Leshawna, in pursuit of her frog, encounters the bottomless puddle immortalized in the Laurel & Hardy films.
 * This episode marks the first appearance of the frog and the duck.
 * With Izzy's elimination, all original female members of the Killer Bass have been eliminated.

Goofs

 * When Geoff goes into the beaver dam, his hat is misshapen due to being wet. However, when the beaver hits him with its tail, his hat looks normal again.
 * Also, when he is in the dam, the blue patch on his hat is not blue, but the color of the rest of his hat.
 * When Gwen and Heather are fighting over the net, Gwen hits Heather in the head, but it's Gwen's voice that says "Ow!" in response to the hit.
 * At the campfire ceremony, Chris told them to come up and get their marshmallows when he calls their name. However, he ends up throwing them to the campers instead.
 * Leshawna states that Heather has been trying to vote her off for weeks, yet it's known for a fact that Heather has almost always voted for another camper each time she was part of a vote.
 * Dodgebrawl - She most likely voted for Noah.
 * Not Quite Famous - She voted for Justin.
 * Paintball Deer Hunter - She voted for Beth (although she did say she wished she could also eliminate Leshawna).
 * If You Can't Take The Heat... - She voted for Beth once more.
 * No Pain, No Game - She voted for Eva (although Heather pointed out she only voted for Eva because Leshawna was immune).
 * Search and Do Not Destroy - She most likely voted for Trent.
 * Hide and Be Sneaky - She voted for Owen.
 * That's Off the Chain! and Hook, Line, and Screamer did not feature votes.
