User blog comment:Fedora Kid/Ezekiel in Total Drama World Tour...Oh, the Possibilities/@comment-1734566-20100414151915

@Codyfan12: I understand that I've brought up this whole debate of whether or not Zeke will last long in TDWT, but this is actually my first time putting that issue aside, and instead thinking of all the multiple possibilites there are for him, were he to last long this season.

And you say that he was absent in the new trailer...but I can contradict that. If you were to go back and watch it yourself, you will see that the reason Ezekiel is absent (save for his passport and the line-up) is because his entire team (himself, DJ, Harold, LeShawna, Lindsay, and Bridgette) is never shown. Throughout all of the moments (with the exceptions of the group shots in the very beginning), they only show Team Amazon and Owen's team.

Think about it for a minute: In the Egyptian Desert, they only showed Tyler (Owen's team), Heather, Cody, and Sierra. In the Amazon, they only showed Team Amazon (except for Courtney) and all of Owen's team. In the German Alps, they showed Noah, Owen, Courtney, and Heather. In this segment, however, they did briefly show LeShawna, Lindsay, and DJ. But that was it. And lastly, in Paris, they only showed Sierra and Cody.

So you can't say that Ezekiel himself is the one who's totally absent. Because it's his whole team, particularly himself, Bridgette, and Harold, who are the absent ones.
