Super Hero-ld

'''It's a super time on set as the contestants participate in super hero based challenges. Someone forms a fierce rivalry with another contestant, as two others maintain their old rivalry. A new alliance is formed, and it all ends with one castmate being eliminated and someone getting a broken heart.'''

Plot
The episode begins with flashbacks revealing that Courtney and Lindsay actually took the cheese factory tour, though Courtney didn't seem to enjoy the trip. LeShawna and Beth are revolted by the other girl's smells, surprised at what just one day at a cheese factory did to them. The camera then turns to the set, where Duncan kicks Harold's butt, literally, after he put a burrito in Harold's back pocket. Justin intervenes in the fight, and uses the temporary peace to form an alliance with Harold and Duncan, based on the premise that the girls outnumber the guys four to three, and with Courtney back on the show, the girls will figure it out and get ride of them one by one. LeShawna and Beth are enjoying some cheese that Lindsay brought back from the factory, but Courtney refuses to eat the gouda. The two groups go to bed as they talk about what to do about the opposing group. The Guy's Alliance agree that they will need a plan to remain in the competition so that one of them can win the million dollars.

The next day, the contestants go down to the film lot (in their pajamas) and see Chef being held in the air by a bungee cord. Chef is wearing a pink dress and screaming for help. Chris jumps from a building dressed as Batman, and grabs Chef. The two then fall as the cords they were attached to break. Chris lands by Courtney's side and she asks when he'll tell her about the challenge, but Chris is too angry about the cord snapping to care, but quickly afterwards, Chris announces that he feels like telling everyone the challenge, so he does. Chris tells the final seven that the challenge will be based on superhero movies, and that all of them must dress as superheroes, tights and all, for the challenge. They have each to make their own super hero costume, they being judged by originality. Everyone is upset to learn that they will have to be wearing spandex outfits, along with other extra "junk," except for Lindsay. He also tells them that Chef (under the alias of "Pythonicus"), along with his sidekick cat "Dander Boy," will be playing the super villain and will try to sabotage their work. All the cast mates work on their outfits (except Duncan, who simply doesn't seem to care).

The contestants all come out with their finished costumes and made up powers. Beth comes out as Lumber Woman, who can talk to plants, but gets a 3/10. Justin's outfit is basically the exact same thing, and gets a 2/10. Chris likes Harold's, who was Captain Alberta. Due to "Keeping it Canadian" and having such a powerful fart, he gets a 7/10. Chris is upset when Duncan is revealed to have refused to wear spandex, and gives him a 2/10 for poor superpowers. He has hope when Courtney's outfit as the Human Cricket gets an 8/10, due to an annoying sound that the costume made. LeShawna receives a 7/10 as 'Super Aqua Chick' after she sprayed Chris with water. Lindsay is the last to come out and says her super hero is Wonder Woman, but is reminded by Courtney that Wonder Woman already exists. Chris, however says he loved Wonder Woman as a kid and proclaims Lindsay the winner. Courtney argues that her outfit wasn't original, but Chris reminds her that he makes the rules. After Lindsay complains that Courtney stepped on her "invisible jet", Courtney gets two points taken off her final score, even if the winner had already been decided. Lindsay then asks if they want a ride on her invisible jet, to which everyone, except Courtney, raises their hands. Chris then winks to the camera saying "I love this show".

The second challenge is for each contestant to jump from a trampoline, over a building, then land on a mattress. Next, save a "girl," which is a potato sack with a dress. Duncan teases Chris in the confessional by saying that Chris probably had dinner with that thing last night. Lastly, go through a "meteor shower" (Chef throwing bowling balls) over an electric wire. For demonstration, Chef throws a bowling ball at a water tower, which goes straight through the tower. The one who takes the least amount of time wins. Lindsay gets 10 seconds cut off since she won the first challenge.

Lindsay is put up first, and despite her bonus, she does a terrible job. She fails her jump, misses the potato sack, and gets hit by a bowling ball. Harold surprises everyone by putting on a great display (even amazing LeShawna) and even manages to use his wit to use his "superpowers," which are farting. Harold gets out with thirty six seconds. All the other 5 go next, but LeShawna hits the prop, failing her jump. Beth misses the potato sack, causing her to be out. Justin gets hit by a bowling ball, gets electrocuted, and fails as well. Duncan and Courtney were the only ones to finish the course (Besides Harold). Even though Harold made it in thirty-six seconds, Courtney wins the challenge, and invincibility, with 30 seconds.

The guys try to think on who to vote off that night, Justin saying they should vote off Courtney since she is the biggest threat, Duncan is then seen worried but then reminds them that she has invincibility. Duncan then tells everyone to vote off LeShawna, to Harold's anguish, and he refuses to vote with the alliance. Duncan convinces Courtney to vote off LeShawna, and to tell Harold to do so too, her knowing the girls will want her off if she loses the next invincibility challenge. LeShawna, Lindsay, and Beth are deliberating in the washrooms, and they choose Duncan, not only cause he's a strong competitor, but because it would hurt Courtney as well. LeShawna points out that only three of them wouldn't be enough, and Beth attempts to convince Harold to vote off Duncan. Courtney then appears and tells Harold to vote off LeShawna, and lies to him by saying the girls were trying to vote him off.

At the Awards Ceremony, the first Gilded Chris goes to Courtney. Justin, Beth, Harold and Lindsay all follow, receiving their Gilded Chris Awards. LeShawna and Duncan were the last two left, and the final award goes to Duncan. LeShawna is voted off, leaving Lindsay and Beth shocked. LeShawna thought that they had betrayed her into voting her off, but Harold later jumps onto LeShawna, telling her he is sorry, saying that he joined Duncan, Courtney and Justin into voting her off, he wasn't sure if he could trust her, but he made a mistake. LeShawna tells him not to worry because she made a mistake earlier, and then forgives him. As LeShawna heads on over to the Lame-o-sine, Harold, Lindsay and Beth waved goodbye to her. LeShawna tells Harold to keep continuing on in the game and tells him to stand up for himself. After she leaves, Duncan tells Harold that he has something in his pocket, only to kick him in the butt when Duncan once again put the burrito in Harold's back pocket. When Harold said that things couldn't get things worse for him, Chris knocks him to the ground in order to close the show. After the close, Harold tells Chris that he broke his glasses.

Quotes
Harold: Come on! Justin: Cut it out, you guys. We need to start sticking together. Duncan: Ha! Kind of like Harold's buttcheeks. You know, with the beans and the sticking.
 * Lindsay: (in Lame-o-sine, with Courtney) Oh, I hope there's a cracker factory next door! I looove cheese with crackers!
 * Duncan: You makin' eyes at me, muchacho? (kicks Harold's pocket, which contains a burrito inside)

Courtney: You stink like feet! LeShawna: You kiddin' me? You're both rank! Beth: Who knew a tour of a cheese factory could make you smell so bad? Lindsay: It's like we somehow brought it home with us...(reaches into her bag and pull out a piece of cheese) Gouda anyone? Chris: (while getting a massage) The views of the contestants of Total Drama Action do not necessarily reflect the views of this network or parent company. They may, but not necessarily. Justin: About the girls? We need a plan. Duncan: Since when did you start thinking so much? Justin: A near-death experience can change a man, Duncan. Once you've lost everything, there's nothing left to lose. Except... Justin, Duncan, and Harold: ... the million dollars. Courtney: Uh... is anyone going to tell us what the heck is going on here? Chris: (still angry) When. I. Feel. Like. It. (several seconds later) And now, I feel like it. Chris: You serious? What do you talk about, the best brand of Fertilizer? That's worth a whole three points. (Justin walks in, wearing a very similar costume to Beth) Chris: I guess not so great minds think alike. Justin: I'm Timberman! And my super power is... (Justin sprinkles wood chips on Chris) Chris: Seriously? Wood chips? Justin: Oh, and I can float! And make fire as long as I have matches... and I don't get too close to the flames... ouch. Chris: Lame! Two points! Next! Chris: What's your super power? (LeShawna splashes Chris with water) Fair enough... seven points... Guys: (raising their hands, while Dander Boy raises his paw) I do! Chris: Man, I love this gig! Duncan: Whatever. The girls are kicking our butts. Who are we gonna boot? Justin: The biggest threat. Courtney. Duncan: (looks shocked and reluctant, but recovers) Dude, she's got invincibility. Which I say leaves... LeShawna. Harold: There is no way I'm voting off LeShawna. We're supposed to have an alliance with her. Duncan, we should vote you off for treason! Duncan: Pals before gals, Harold? We're outnumbered. And if you don't do anything I'll say, I'll tell LeShawna that you pick your nose in your sleep. Harold: (points his finger, which has a booger on it) You have circumstantial evidence at best. LeShawna: Girl's got game, that's for sure. Beth: I say we vote off Duncan. He's super-strong, and as much as Courtney would hate to admit it, it'll probably kill her. LeShawna: Kill two jerks with one stone, I like it. But's there only three of us. We can't do it on our own. Beth: Leave it to me. LeShawna: (sighs) I really hope that girl's not gonna talk to the plants. Courtney: And why would I help you? Duncan: 'Cause you won't have invincibility forever. And I'm thinking it's a matter of time before the girls give you the heave-ho. (Courtney starts to reply, but gives a look of resignation instead) You got to convince Harold to vote off LeShawna. Captain Alberta just won't listen to reason. Courtney: You mean your fists. Duncan: That too. Are you in? (Courtney smiles deviously) Harold: Tell me something I don't know. Beth: My boyfriend Brady has two dogs named Steve. Harold: Really? Beth: There's four of us. Vote for him and he's gone. Harold: Me? Harold: (in the confessional) I knew Courtney would come around... eventually. Harold: You don't mean LeShawna?! I won't. Courtney: You think you could trust her, after all the things she's done? It's up to you, Captain Alberta. It's either her or you. LeShawna: You guys voted for me? Harold: (cries) I'm sorry. I didn't know if I could trust you, but I made a big mistake. A big mistake. LeShawna: Awwww, honeypie, don't you worry. I made a mistake once too. Don't hate the player, hate the game. Harold: Do you forgive me? LeShawna: Come here, sugar baby. LeShawna's gotta a whole lot of love. (gives Harold a hug) Chris: Okay, okay. Enough with all the warmth and affection. Time for the Walk of Shame! Beth: Me too. Lindsay: Bye, LeShawna. LeShawna: Awwww, I'll miss you too, baby. And I'll be rooting for you. You just make sure to stand up for yourself, you hear? You kick Duncan's butt! Duncan: Hey, Harold, what's that in your pocket? (kicks him in the butt with the burrito in his back pocket, laughs, and runs away) Harold: I guess I should have seen that coming.

 * Harold: I'll miss you.
 * LeShawna: (in the Lame-o-sine) I gotta say, I didn't really see that coming. I should've, but I didn't. Hmph, go figure. Who knew that free matty patty would cost me a million big ones? Poor Harold, I'm sure he was bullied into it. Just one more reason I can't stand Duncan! (growls, grabs a cushion from the car seat) (camera skips, revealing LeShawna messed up the Lame-o-sine due to her rage) Don't worry, I'm good. I'm good. You just wait, Duncan. I'm coming for you. One little scratch on my boy Harold and LeShawna will be getting all up in your business. Oh man, I broke a nail!
