User blog comment:Epic~00/Why Total Drama All Stars Was Such An Abysmal Season (PART 4)/@comment-7985501-20141030013444/@comment-31556666-20141030014206

There was nothing in ROTI that could've proven that Scott was smart in anyway. Even though Scott was very conniving throughout All-Stars, he was never intended to seem as smart as people like Alejandro or Heather. Sure, he planned things, and was somewhat smart in the context of being a villain, but his ROTI plans were occasionaly dumb, like when he constantly cost his team challenges. AS says it's okay to think this. Besides, Scott still has the meanness in him. It's just toned down. I know that may seem like a problem for some people, but his level of intelligence was much more consistent than others.
