Recap
Picking up from where the previous episode had left off, Chris decides to hold a tiebreaker between Cody and Alejandro in order to determine who will proceed to the final two alongside Heather for the one million dollars. Cody admits his elation for making it this far in the confessional but reveals he is also frightened of Alejandro. Alejandro claims that he let Heather get to the final to to install a false sense of security in her and admits that he is upset and embarrassed that he tied with Cody and is imagining the insults his own brother José is compiling for him right now. All the losers and campers who did not make it in season three are watching the event to see who will win. Chris asked Heather if she would like to choose who would break the tie, or let Cody and Alejandro decide. She decided to choose for herself. Chris said, in a challenge booth, there are balls with different tie breakers on them and Heather has to pick one. Heather goes inside and is pelted by golf balls, which were supposed to be ping-pong balls, as stated by Bridgette, although Chris had switched them. Heather knocks one ball through the glass of the booth, which hits Tyler's forehead, knocking him out. Another ball gets trapped in her throat and she coughs it up. Chris forces Geoff to pick up the saliva-covered ball and read it out loud. A reluctant Geoff obeys, reading out loud that the challenge is a traditional Hawaiian fire dance of death.

Cody and Alejandro each have to wear grass skirts and a coconut bra while using paddles to knock each other off their barge that is set on fire into shark infested water. This is in order to save Heather, who is tied to a pole that is set on fire. Believing that the eliminated contestants will vote to decide the winner of the final two, Heather wants Alejandro to win because she believes she can win in a popularity contest against him. Alejandro starts dominating Cody. Then, Sierra and Harold root for him while Courtney roots for Alejandro. Cody tries to fight back, but is distracted by Heather, when she tells him that Sierra is in danger. He turns to find her, but Alejandro utilises his moment of distraction to knock Cody off the barge, which causes a shark to eat Cody. Alejandro unties Heather and wins the challenge, which successfully eliminates Cody. Sierra, who is in the peanut gallery, saves Cody from the shark.

Chris announces a challenge where the remaining contestants have to build sacrifice dummies that resemble their opponent into the volcano instead of a vote. Also believing that he would lose in a popularity contest, Alejandro is relieved to hear this. Originally, Chris had planned to throw real people in the volcano, but his lawyers had told him not to, so the dummies have to be made of wood and pineapples and must be made by people they choose to help them. Alejandro picks Courtney and Tyler but he is still knocked out from the golf ball incident and cannot participate, so Lindsay does it instead. Heather asks if anyone wants to help her, which causes Cody and Harold to volunteer. Cody then admits in a confessional that Heather has treated him nicely and that Alejandro deserves payback. Harold helps out because he is a fan of Cody. To make the challenge interesting, Chris forces them to sing a song.

By the end of the song, Alejandro finishes his sacrificial dummy first, giving him a twenty second head start. He also gets a wheelbarrow which Courtney won for him in an earlier episode. Heather ends up getting nothing. Chris lets her use the baby carriage Cody won, but when she puts her dummy on it, it breaks. She then struggles up the mountain with a heavy dummy while Alejandro speeds ahead and taunts her.

However, he almost falls in a river of lava that prevents him from using his wheelbarrow anymore. Heather catches up and Chris explains they have to cross the river while their helpers can cut or not cut ropes that hold dangerous obstacles above each stone. Alejandro takes the lead and tells his team to cut the ropes. Heather tells her helpers to block them, which they do. Cody tells the girls that there is a sale for mascara, which causes Lindsay to run away in happiness into the depths of the jungle, angering Courtney. Courtney takes down Harold by kicking him in the groin and cuts a rope that drops a piano on Alejandro, which shows that no one knows which rope leads to who. Heather then calls Alejandro "José". Alejandro reacts to this angrily and tells her to never call him that. Heather asks why, and Alejandro reveals it is the name of his older brother that torments him, mainly by calling him "Al". Cody then proceeds to use this to his advantage and distracts Alejandro by repeatedly calling him Al. Heather then passes Alejandro when Cody is distracting him. Cody then throws Courtney off of him and cuts a rope intending to throw a trap on Alejandro, but it drops a cage on Heather, which allows Alejandro to take the lead again. A sad Heather is on the verge of quitting but Cody gives her a pep talk, telling her that she is the good guy in this battle for the million. Heather, after realizing that for once she is the hero, escapes the cage and continues in the race.

Alejandro reaches the top where everyone is waiting. He is about to throw his dummy in the volcano until a crying Heather arrives. She tells him she worked so hard for this opportunity and that Alejandro will win and leave her. Alejandro answers by expelling a secret to her. He tells her she has stolen his heart. Heather then admits that she has feelings for him, too. Everyone gasps, except Noah, who had already noticed the attraction several episodes earlier, and then are grossed out when Alejandro awkwardly kisses Heather. However, Heather then knees Alejandro in the groin and throws him off the volcano on a melting ice cube. Smirking, Heather explains that while having a boyfriend would have been nice, having a million dollars would be even nicer. Heather then throws her dummy into the lava and then jumps around in triumph. Heather stares in happiness at the case of money when some local Hawaiians ask if any pineapples were thrown in the volcano. Chris then admits he made the peanut gallery stand in front of some signs that say to not throw pineapples in volcanoes.

Everyone is worried about the volcano erupting when suddenly, a feral Ezekiel appears and attacks Heather for the case, managing to snatch it from her, only to fall into the volcano with it. Everyone runs from the erupting volcano and they trample Alejandro, except Heather and Chris who just pass by him. After being run over by Blaineley's dolly, Alejandro is completely covered in lava. The rest of the cast members are heading for safety by swimming farther out into in the ocean, where Chris is about to sign off, when Ezekiel is suddenly shot out of the volcano and crashes right into Chris and Chef's boat, sinking it. All of the contestants laugh but then swim away when flaming rocks start bombarding them. They all leave Heather behind to complain if she will get her money after all. She is unable to finish asking, when a massive flaming boulder, significantly larger than all the others, hurtles towards her. She screams and tries to swim away, but the screen turns to static just as the rock is about to hit her.

After the credits, there is a scene showing Chris in a black robed outfit with a hood and cape, asking Chef if the machine will work, to which Chef shrugs noncommittally. Alejandro is seen on an operation table. His skin is charred, most of his hair is gone, and his limbs are crushed, twisted, and mangled from the cast trampling him. He is being placed into the Drama Machine with the mask slowly being lowered onto his disfigured face. He arises as the machine and asks if the money is safe, to which Chris informs him of its fiery demise. Alejandro dramatically screams "Nooo!" and in response, Chris only chuckles and then calls him a spaz, ending the episode.

Alternate Ending
Like Total Drama Island and Total Drama Action, there was an alternative ending, however, it can only be seen on the Cartoon Network website. In this ending, everything is the exact same leading up to when Heather pushes Alejandro off the volcano. She tosses the dummy into the volcano, only for Chris to point out that she actually tossed Alejandro's dummy in by mistake. Chris then declares that, because of this, Alejandro has won the million dollars, which causes Heather to scream so loud that it echos. Once Alejandro reaches the bottom, Chris yells down to him that he might want to come back up. Alejandro, realizing that he won, starts to run back up the volcano. The natives come in, telling them about what happens when pineapples meet lava, before the volcano starts to shake. Ezekiel emerges behind Heather, who he grabs by the head and pushes her aside before pouncing on Chris. Ezekiel takes the million from Chris after a short fight, only to fall into the volcano. Chris tells everyone to run, and they start to head down the path. Alejandro, still on the volcano path, stops when he sees the three natives, followed shortly after by Chris and Heather, run by. He asks about the million dollars, demanding to get what he deserves. He is then trampled by the cast. After that, like the original ending, Chris signs off the show and climbs onto the boat with Chef until Ezekiel flies into their boat and sinks it. This time, however, after the entire cast (minus Alejandro and Blaineley) laugh at Chris and Chef's misfortune, and they instantly start swimming away screaming once the rocks start falling down around them. Some parts at the end were not included - Heather doesn't get hit by the giant flaming boulder and the scene with Alejandro being placed in the Drama Machine is also cut out.

 * Chef Hatchet doesn't speak in this episode.
 * Ezekiel appears, but only screams and makes animal noises.
 * Three Hawaiian natives have lines, but it is unknown who voiced them.
