If Duncan never returned in World Tour, I could see Chris requiring Duncan to come back for contractual reasons. Duncan and Courtney would have broken up by the start of All-Stars, and I could see Duncan returning to peruse Gwen's feelings for him. Duncan and Gwen probably would have gotten together in All Stars while Courtney and Gwen would still have their friendship. Additionally, since Gwen would be on the Heroes when Duncan swapped, she would probably help him through his mid-game crisis. As such, he doesn't blow up the cottage and would advance further. Would probably get eliminated in 7th or 6th due to Mal forcing Duncan to kiss Courtney for some reason (maybe Mal blows up the cabin and says he would pin it on Duncan?).
