Super Happy Crazy Fun Time Japan

'''The contestants travel to Japan for a dangerous challenge. The teams must survive a Japanese game show, and then shoot a commercial. Three teammates clash, leaving two others to finish the challenge. Meanwhile, one contestant is upset because he keeps hurting animals. One team's winning streak continues, while another has to lose another member. One contestant is technically voted off, but somebody sacrifices themselves instead.'''

Recap
The episode opens with Owen still terrified as ever to fly in a plane. Noah tries to reassure him that it's safe, but as he says this a hole opens up in the side of the plane. LeShawna is almost sucked out but Alejandro grabs her hand and saves her. Harold says that he could have done the same but "he wants to leave the ladies wanting more." Soon after, Owen gets sucked into the hole and clogs it, preventing any more air from escaping. Owen complains and LeShawna fawns over Alejandro, while Harold is in denial that she's falling for him. Meanwhile, in the winner's section, Courtney is trying to convince her team to make her leader, to which Heather argues while Sierra shifts through Cody's belongings, even sniffing his shoe.

Then, Chris calls them all down to the commons to discuss the challenge, which will be in Japan. Chef enters in a Chinese costume, to which Harold complains about their cultural insensitivity. Growing annoyed, Chris signals to Chef, who then slices open the door, forcing the contestants from the plane. As they scream and fall the bell chimes, indicating the start of a song, Noah is incredulous about the idea but Chris insists that they comply. The contestants then sing Before We Die.

After finishing the song, the contestants land in a giant bowl of rice and are taken to a game show studio for their first challenge. The challenge is human pinball, where the contestants must be placed inside a pinball with an animal and try to get the highest score for their team. Alejandro volunteers to do the challenge for his team when no one else wants to. DJ is volunteered by his team mates but doesn't like it because he is convinced that he is cursed by the mummified dog that he broke in Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 1. Cody volunteers to do the challenge for his team when Courtney, Heather, and Gwen won't stop arguing. Alejandro and DJ are paired up with pandas for their teams, and Cody and Sierra are teamed up for Team Amazon. Alejandro wins the challenge for his team, after charming his panda, Ting Ting. DJ finishes in second place, but is devastated when he accidentally harms the his panda, T'sing T'sing in the process. Cody finishes in third with kisses all over him from Sierra, he is then shown in the confessional, removing Sierra's gum from his ear and expressing disgust.

The next challenge is introduced after seeing a dubbed version of the Total Drama Action trailer. It is dubbed in English because the Japanese "don't like the cast's voices." The cast are told they must create commercial's for Chef's new candy, and Chef himself will judge each of the commercials. The teams get to pick props for their commercials. For winning the first challenge, Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot chooses first. Alejandro finds an alien suit that everyone agrees to have Owen wear during the commercial. Team Victory then picks, and last is Team Amazon. While Team Amazon is at the prop compartment, Ezekiel's sillhouette is briefly shown, with red eyes. Before they can realize who it is, what supposedly is Ezekiel vanishes, hiding behind some crates. After this Heather, Gwen, and Courtney argue over how they want to do the challenge, they cannot reach an agreement so they each storm off. This prompts Cody and Sierra handle the commercial.

Chris begins to play the commercials, Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot does a Godzilla parody. Owen dresses up as an alien and stomps on the small city as the rest of the team dresses up as soldiers worry about what the monster will do to their city. To get the monster to stop, Alejandro gives the monster candy and it makes him stop crushing the buildings. The team then sings the slogan that they made up for the commercial. Team Victory films their commercial in a black and white slow sequence. Harold intends for the film to be a metaphor but most of the contestants, Chris, and Chef view it as total nonsense. Team Amazon doesn't seem to have a commercial prepared and Courtney begins to tell Chef and Chris that they didn't make one, but Cody interrupts saying that they have a great commercial, just not a title yet. He plays the commercial, which incorporates the ideas of Heather, Gwen, and Courtney with a colorful background and jingle that Sierra sings. Cody did all the filming and said one line.

In the end, it is revealed that Team Amazon won the challenge, with Chef saying that he picked theirs purely because their commercial featured exploding doughnuts. Team Amazon tells Cody how great he is to which Sierra agrees. She asks for a group hug, and tells everyone but Cody to back up. Team Victory lost, and Alejandro consoles Harold, telling him he still has his honor. Alejandro then tells Harold that LeShawna likes guys with honor, which causes Harold to think. At the elimination ceremony, the entire team and T'sing T'sing the panda (except Lindsay who doesn't vote for any one) vote out DJ. But before he is eliminated, Harold quits the game, saying that the team's loss was his fault. He leaves the plane with "honor," by stabbing himself with a fake lightsaber and then falling out without a parachute. Chris throws him one and the episode ends.

Cast

 * Ezekiel makes a cameo appearance in the cargo hold, however he did not speak.

Goofs

 * For the closed captions, many of the lines are mislabeled during the off-screen argument between Gwen, Heather, and Courtney after they storm off.
 * When DJ is voting, Courtney's passport is seen on the sink, even though she is part of Team Amazon.
 * During DJ's Flashback, he was seen wearing an aluminum hat, however in the real episode, he wasn't.
 * Though DJ's memory was obviously exaggerated because he thought the mummy dog and the pyramid they were in exploded (even though LeShawna said that's not how it happened).
 * During Before We Die, Alejandro grabs Bridgette's hand but then he appears between Izzy and Lindsay.
 * Both Alejandro and Lindsay appear twice in the end circle. Though, LeShawna notices that Lindsay suddenly appeared on the other side of her, so it could've been that Lindsay was pruposley put in the circle twice.
 * Even though they are in Japan, Chris has pandas which are native to China.
 * However, Chris has been known to mix up Asian cultures, as seen in Crouching Courtney, Hidden Owen.
 * When LeShawna is holding DJ's passport in her hand, he is frowning in the picture, however when DJ is holding up his own passport, he is smiling in the picture.
 * In Team Victory's commercial, DJ's "D" symbol on his chest seems to disappear. Later in the commercial, however, it is visible.
