Newf Kids on the Rock

'''The host's hometown is visited as the eleven teens compete in their next challenge. With one team whittled down to one member, two contestants try to get them on their side as an ally by all means possible. In the end, two teams share the reward, and no one is sent home.'''

Recap
The episode starts off in the first-class section with Gwen, Courtney and Heather sitting in first class. Heather suddenly begins to climb into an air vent above them, explaining that she's sneaking into economy class to spy on Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot and DJ, elaborating that Team Amazon needs to make an alliance with DJ before the opposition does.

The scene changes to the economy class sections where DJ is seen sitting across from Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot. Owen is nervous about having to make and alliance with him, explaining that he was never the "alliancer", just the "alliancee". Noah gives Owen some advice on how to ask him, which backfires due to Owen taking the advice too literally. Alejandro chides them, explaining that they cannot just barge into and alliance. Unfortunately, an angry Tyler chooses this moment to yell at DJ for being the cause of Lindsay's elimination, DJ gets equally angry, replying that it isn't his fault then says that he's sorry and that he's going to deliberately lose the next challenge in order to leave the game. Heather then falls out from a compartment above Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot upon hearing this. Both Alejandro and Noah are amused by this, and Alejandro inquires whether she was spying on them, which Heather vehemently denies.

The plane then lands in the middle of the ocean and the contestants are shoved out of the Total Drama Jumbo Jet. DJ immediately begins to panic due to his fear of water, but is rescued by Heather, who is still attempting to form an alliance with him. Alejandro points out a flaw in Heather's plan, irritating her further. Chris then shows up on a boat, wearing a raincoat and talking in a Newfoundland accent, explaining that Newfoundland was where he was born and that the first challenge of the day was to reach a set of boats and row them all the way to the shore.

When the challenge begins Courtney attempts to take over leadership of Team Amazon, only to be chided by Heather. While Courtney and Heather argue, Alejandro makes it to his boat, quickly complimenting his team's swimming skills and then assisting Noah, the second to arrive, onto the boat. The of Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot make it to the boat, and then drag a struggling Owen to them using a fishing net. When the race begins, Heather switches over to DJ's boat in order to help him stay in the game, the musical chime goes off and the contestants begin singing, "Sea Shanty", DJ refuses to sing but is tricked into doing so by Heather. Due to a series of unexpected events, DJ and Heather arrive at the Island first followed shortly by Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot. Team Amazon however, is nowhere in sight, leaving Heather to face the team punishment of cleaning the seafood Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot brought in and shucking several giant clams for Chris.

With Team Amazon still missing, the next challenge involves Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot competing against DJ. The challenge is a relay, for the first part, Izzy and Owen have to chug jugs of apple vinegar, then tag Alejandro and Noah, who have to decipher a sentence given by Chris' cousin Jerd McLean, who speaks in a very thick accent and for the final round Tyler has to kiss a fish "like he means it". Due to DJ being the sole survivor of Team Victory he is required to do all the challenges himself.

Quotes
Courtney: If I didn't know any better, I would think that Heather liked him! Gwen: Ew. That's like the Grinch having a crush on someone. Courtney: I know, yuck! Think of her dried up, black little heart thawing out, lighting up with love- Heather: Ow! I am not in love! I am thinking about our team! Noah: It's like asking a girl out, only she's a guy. Owen: Oh, okay! (to DJ) Hey, DJ! Hey, you wanna go for hot dogs with my buddy Noah? He says your legs are nice. (wolf whistles) Noah: (sarcastically) Yeah, because that's exactly what I told him to say. Heather: Okay, any objections? Gwen: Courtney's bossing us around and you don't have one?! Heather: Only to losing! Heather: More like a B-I-T-C- (is cut off) Gwen: Guys, let's get going. Cody: Please, can we stop this story now? Sierra: I ended up picking thorns out of my tissue for like, a week. Because I jumped out the window. To get on the horse. And I landed on a rosebush. Chris: Wow, this guy is a reality producer's dream and everybody else's nightmare! (chuckles) What will he think of next!? Find out here on Total! Drama! World Tour!
 * Gwen: Unless she's turned into Izzy and is looking for elves, it probably has something to do with Alejandro.
 * Owen: I don't know what to say to him...I've always been the allianc-ee, not the alliance-er.
 * Sierra: Why are we landing in the middle of the ocean? (Plane rises) Oh, no we're not. (plane lowers) Why are we landing in the middle of the-? (Plane rises) Oh, no we're not.
 * Heather: (in confessional) Oh, he is good! (sighs lovingly; static) I want the tape! Give me the tape!! How do you open this thing?!
 * Courtney: If we swim in a V formation, like geese, we'll be faster!
 * Gwen: (in confessional) You Know, Heather really shouldn't let her obvious crush on Alejandro get her away from the game. Having a relationship with Duncan really screwed things up for me last season - Trent! I meant Trent! Just a slip of the tongue... (static) I want that tape back! Give me the tape!! How do you open this thing?!
 * Courtney: I am a CIT!
 * Sierra: This one time I saw Cody riding a white horse outside my bedroom window! And this was before I even knew him.
 * Noah: (in confessional) No wonder my little cousins aren't allowed to watch this show!
 * Owen: (in confessional) Noah's auntie is right to block this show, it's way out of control!
 * Alejandro: (in confessional, brushing his teeth crazily) Malvada Bruja! Malditos Incompetentes!
 * Alejandro: Heather thinks she's clever, but you see, it's all a matter of waiting for your opportunity. Ah, the magic fish. It took me a couple tries. Fish aren't the easiest medium for making art.
 * Courtney: (in confessional) Okay, fine, so, I did let a guy get in the way of how I played the game. I really can't stop thinking about how Duncan could just, abandon me like this, and, I... I messed up. Did I just say that on air? (static) I want that tape back! Give me the tape! Oof! How do you open this thing?!
