The teams must race through the island while chased by raptors while having to deal with uncontrollable flatulence thanks to a bean filled breakfast. Having had enough of the show, a scared camper campaigns to get himself eliminated. Someone abandons his friend to a raptor while a farter fulfills his dream. An influencer's positive vibes turns out to be an act as she reveals her true colors, which would have remained secret had a thief not shared it to the whole world. One team member saves his teammates from a raptor and decides his intention to win the game. But as repayment, his team votes him off, fulfilling a wish he no longer wanted to come true.
Plot[]
During the cold open, Chris sarcastically wonders if Millie voted out Scary Girl before Millie nervously asks him to stop. The episode starts with Priya training Millie by throwing apples at her, with Millie getting hit by all the apples she's supposed to avoid.
Millie |
“ | I agreed to let Priya train me because the longer I stay on the island, the more research I can do. I had no idea she'd be like this! | ” |
This training reaches the point where Millie is hit by enough apples to be knocked over. Damien enters the room and starts complimenting Priya before giving her a button with his face on it. He then starts to ask Millie if she wants one, but Millie says it's going to take more than superficial comments created by unrealistic standards created by media. Damien notes her intelligence and compliments that, getting Millie to accept a button. Zee later bursts in covered in buttons, calling himself "Button Man" while Damien says he's his biggest supporter. Zee later puts one on his can of soda only for it to spray on his face.
Damien |
“ | I've had enough! So I'm running a Vote Damien off the Island campaign! I'd rather leave by drone today than in a box tomorrow. I made buttons! | ” |
Damien leaves, saying everyone should vote for him. However, Priya says that as much as she wants to give Damien what he wants, she wanted Ripper eliminated next. Millie starts to get uncomfortable watching Zee suck the soda from the hole he made on the can.
Later that morning, the contestants were eating beans for breakfast at the cafeteria. Julia tells herself to be thankful for every meal and makes a post about it. Wayne compliments Julia's looks, and she responds that it's what's inside that counts. Wayne then panics and tells Raj about all the stuff that matters gone, but it all quickly turns into jokes about their poop, which disgusts Julia and leaves her beans for them. The two start having a contest on who can eat the most beans before Chris calls them to meet at the beach for the next challenge.
At the beach, Chris hopes that the contestants enjoyed their breakfast before explaining that the challenge is a simple race to one end of the island to the other, first team to get on the dock wins. Damien is asking Priya if it will be him if they lose, but Priya tells him that they're prioritizing eliminating Ripper. MK asks if there's catch and Chris says that just because there always is a catch, doesn't mean there always is before confirming that there is indeed a catch. Damien panics and asks if there's landmines. Chef angrily reminds Chris about no landmines and Chris assures that there isn't any, at least in this challenge. Chris then says that they want to race as silently as possible when Priya suddenly farts, embarrassing her. MK, Chase, Bowie, Wayne and Raj all fart, which Emma calls them disgusting before she lets out a fart longer than anyone else.
Emma |
“ | (Embarrassed) That came out of nowhere. Well, not nowhere. It just took me by surprise, it's all I'm trying to- (farts) (Worried) I might have trouble crossing the island silently. | ” |
Emma realizes that's why baked beans was served for breakfast. Damien tries to explain why beans are causing the farting but Ripper interrupts him by calling him a nerd, before realizing that's what's causing the farting, which Damien reminded that it's exactly what he explained. Emma then lets out a loud fart blowing her skirt up as she holds it, prompting Ripper to flirt with her, much to her disgust as she knows Ripper's flirting with her due to her farts. Chris reveals they have to get to the other side without attracting the attention of the raptors, which Raj mistakes as the basketball team. Millie reminds Chris that dinosaurs are extinct before they hear a loud roar that Chris confirms is a raptor. Bowie doesn't buy it, but Chris speeds off on a jet ski with Chef swimming behind him. Everyone starts walking backwards while scared or nervous as a raptor roars at them and running away from the raptors as they start to chase the campers.
Chase and Zee managed to get away long enough for them to take a breather. Chase starts to ask Zee how he can get Emma back after cutting the brakes to her car, but Zee answers that it's not a situation he'd never find himself in. Chase pleads for advice only for a fart to start coming out, causing Chase to frantically clench his butt to stop the farting. The two start getting scared about the rustling bush only for a deer to pop out, and then a raptor comes out and eats that deer, causing the two boys to run.
Meanwhile, Damien and Priya are hiding behind a tree before both start farting. Millie tries to help by telling them to relax their body, saying that she's farting. Priya and Damien were impressed that Millie is able to silently fart, but soon take it back when it turns out to smell foul. Ripper claims he found a solution by having a pillow on his butt, which does muffle his farts. However, Millie gets angry as she recognizes that it's her pillow. Ripper says that he doesn't want to use his own to avoid pinkeye.

Priya demands that Ripper give Millie back her pillow. Ripper complies but warns that this will put them all in danger. Sure enough, he lets out a loud fart that allows the raptors to hear them from a distance. They start to run and Ripper tries to give the pillow back to Millie, but she tells him to put it back.
Wayne and Raj start to come up with a plan to get to the other side of the island in hockey terms, in which Julia, who is just texting, doesn't understand. The raptor's roar causes the hockey bros to run and Julia to hide behind a nearby rock. Meanwhile, Bowie and Emma are running, with Bowie saying that everything will be fine if they stick together. Bowie suddenly trips and Emma leaves him behind, unaware that Bowie had tripped.
Chase and Zee are running with their hands holding their butts shut, an idea Chase compliments Zee for having. However, Chase feels a large fart coming and finds himself struggling to hold it in before asking Zee to hold his butt for him. Zee was hesitant at first before he obliges and holds Chase's butt shut, noting how firm his butt is. However, a raptor appears before them, getting the boys to run away while Chase lets out a large fart on the raptor's face. While they're running, Zee's prosthetic leg gets caught on some rocks and renders him stuck. Zee pleads Chase to help him, but the latter decides to leave him behind when he sees the raptor getting closer, much to Zee's horror.
Chase |
“ | It's not that I don't care about other people. It's just that I care about me the most. | ” |
Zee decides to detach himself from his prosthesis and decides to try pulling it by hand. He succeeds and manages to use it to stop the raptor's mouth. Zee allows the raptor to keep the leg as he packed another one and starts hopping away. Wayne and Raj get tired from all the running when Raj gets a thought. Wayne decides that he's ready to hear Raj without judgement about his feelings and who he is.
Wayne |
“ | This is it! Raj's gonna tell me he's gay. Or bi? He's telling me something! | ” |
Raj asks Wayne if he has any hockey tape on him.
Wayne |
“ | Nope. That's not it. | ” |
Wayne takes out five rolls of hockey tape. With the hockey tape, they use it to create a trip line with it.
Wayne |
“ | [Raj]: We pulled this trick on our teammate Keith Campbell during a tourney in Shellbrook. It was hilarious!. [Wayne]: So hilarious! Not to Keith, though. [Raj]: Nah, he seemed super mad when we saw him at the hospital. |
” | Raj |
As the raptor was sniffing, Wayne calls it over to them. The raptor tries to run over them but trips over the hockey tape as the Hockey Bros. taunt it. Wayne notices that the mud scum is slippery and comes up with the idea to skate on it, which the two proceed to do. Meanwhile, Emma jumps in the bushes and finds Bowie inside. They hug, but start holding still when they see a raptor. Bowie tells Emma to stay quiet only for Emma to fart. The sound alerts the raptor as the two run away. Meanwhile, Wayne and Raj were skating when decide to shout "Turbo Boost!" and let out a big fart that propels them forward towards the dock, where they're the first to arrive. Meanwhile, MK decides to sneak into the confessional and download the latest confessionals.
MK |
“ | Okay, been recording confessionals for a few days now and here's the 411: Millie lied to Priya about who she voted for in the last elimination and is writing a thesis paper that throws everyone here under the bus! Ha ha! And Princess Julia is not the positive yoga sunshine rainbow she pretends to be. And she calls us all 'butt-knuckles.' | ” |
Emma arrives at the dock shortly afterward followed by Chase, which Chris notes that Chase is alone. Chase cries and grovels at Chris's feet about how he left Zee behind. Chase cries about how he never put anyone in danger like that before, but that leaves Emma suspiciously angry.
Emma |
“ | Never!? Ha ha ha! What!? I seem to recall being in a speeding car that crashed into a pet shop because someone had cut my brakes! Oh, but now he's crying and and saying he's sorry about something he did to Zee!? Where's my apology!? | ” |
Zee shortly arrives afterwards, causing Chase to cry and hug Zee. Chase was crying about how he's never been sorry about anything in his life, though Emma's eye twitches as she sternly watches.
Emma |
“ | Come on Zee, let him have it! | ” |
Zee tells Chase that he would have done the same thing, much to Emma's chagrin. Meanwhile, the rest of the Ferocious Trout run into the dining hall and into the kitchen, farting along the way once inside. Damien suggests that they need to eat some ajwain in order to stop the farting so they can get to the finish line silently. Damien goes into the cabinet and searches through the spices while Ripper finds a giant pot of beans and starts eating it. Damien manages to find the ajwain and gives the team their share. Damien explains that normally it's boiled with limes and served like tea but they don't have much time. Priya, Damien and Millie eat it while Ripper expresses his disappointment that he'll have to silence his farts and therefore give up on the world record. Priya reminds him that it's neither the time nor place and Ripper reluctantly agrees. But before he can eat the ajwain, he feels his stomach rumbling and decides that this could be the world record fart and decides to let it out. Damien, Priya and Millie try to cover their noses while the sound manages to get the raptor to sniff the door of the mess hall. Ripper celebrates as he manages to achieve 48 seconds, thereby tying the world record.
Millie |
“ | Ripper did it! He actually accomplished his— Why am I impressed by this?! | ” |
Damien yells at Ripper for farting that long before the hear the roar of the raptor by the door. Ripper says they're fine as he believes raptors can't open doors as they have the brains of nine-year-olds. Damien asks Ripper when he learned to open a door, but Millie partially agrees with Ripper, saying that raptors don't have the dexterity to open a door. But sure enough, the raptor manages to open the door, causing the four to scream. Meanwhile, as Julia walks on her own, she is relieved that she didn't eat the beans so she didn't have to worry about farting. However, she steps on a branch, the sound of it snapping was enough to attract the raptor's attention before it roars at her face.
Julia |
“ | No. Not today. | ” |
Julia yells at the raptor that it needs mouthwash for it’s bad breath, whitening strips and aligners for it's crooked and stained teeth as it looks like a fence made of mud, it’s dry scaly skin disgusts her to the point of wanting to vomit, makes fun of it’s eye bags and puny chicken wing arms, and disgusting looking toenails, then tells it that it’s bad hygiene is the reason why it’s species went extinct since no one wants to get with that. The raptor runs off crying while Bowie pops out of the nearby pushes, having witnessed the entire thing.
Bowie |
“ | Ooh! Julia just read that raptor! | ” |
Julia is surprised that Bowie saw her outburst, with Bowie referring to her true colors as vicious and brutal. Julia was about to threaten Bowie, but he swears that he won't tell anyone as long as she doesn't roast him either as he is an ugly cryer. However, as Julia and Bowie leave, they were unaware that also MK happened to be nearby on the tree next to the bushes Bowie was hiding in, having recorded the entire thing.
MK |
“ | Ooh! Let's upload the lowdown Julia onto her MySelfieGram account and see what all her followers think. #TheRealJulia. I hope that raptor's okay. | ” |
In a cave somewhere, the raptor is crying while eating ice cream. As it looks into the mirror, it throws the bowl at it. Back at the dining hall, the four Trout members are cornered by a raptor. Damien screams that he's going to die to a raptor as Priya and Ripper try to hold it back. Priya tells Damien that he's the love of her life, which surprises Damien, but Priya tells him that he isn't, she just wanted to say that to someone before she dies. The raptor roars as Priya and Ripper start losing their hold on it. However, Damien notices the pot of beans and open flames behind him. He grabs the pot and shoves the beans into the raptor's mouth. The four run away as the raptor's stomach starts rumbling. It sees the open flames before bracing the inevitable, as it lets out a large fart towards the flames. Right when the four are far from the dining hall, a large explosion is heard, surprising Damien.
Damien |
“ | Did I just do that? I just did that! | ” |
Back at the dock, Bowie, Julia and MK arrive and as they are the last members of their team, the Frogs of Death win the challenge. The rest of the Ferocious Trout arrive and Chris declares them the losing team and expects them at the elimination ceremony. Later during the sunset, Bowie was looking over the lake when Raj comes in saying he's glad Bowie is okay. Bowie says that he's much better than okay, getting Raj to laugh and blush. Meanwhile in the cabins, Julia was looking through her account when she suddenly finds a video of her roasting the raptor uploaded without her knowledge and as a result, she is now down to 3000 followers. She crushes her phone with her hands and angrily screams, wanting to know who uploaded the video.
During the elimination ceremony, Chris notes that this is the second time in a row the Ferocious Trout had to come to the ceremony when Priya suddenly farts. Chris tries to explain further only to be interrupted by Chase farting. Chris starts to remind them that it's the "serious part" of the show and they're close to an open flame, only to be interrupted by a loud fart by Zee, who is worried that it left a mark. Chris wants to just get on with it as Chef explains how some of the campers are at risk of being eliminated. Chase was called out for abandoning Zee when his leg got stuck and asked for help and it's not how a good teammate does, meaning Chase shouldn't have done that.
Chase |
“ | Even Zee forgave me for that. | ” |
Millie is at risk for demanding Ripper to give back her pillow, which he clearly needed to mute his farts and it nearly got Millie and her group eaten by the raptor.
Millie |
“ | Okay, that's true. But he was farting through my pillow. | ” |
Finally, Ripper is at risk for putting his own needs in front of his own team's survival when he tied the world record fart, and if it wasn't for Damien's heroics, they would have been killed by the raptor.
Damien |
“ | You hear that? Heroics. I'm here to play now. Million dollars, I'm coming for you! | ” |
Ripper |
“ | I knew that fart might get me eliminated, but I'd rather be a world record fart holder than a millionaire. I'm no dummy! | ” |
Priya, Millie, Zee and Chase got their marshmallows, meaning their safe. Between Ripper and Damien, Chris teases them by hovering a marshmallow in front of their faces. As Ripper admits that he got "voted off" and conceded defeat, Chris puts the last marshmallow in his mouth and tells Damien that he has been eliminated, which catches Damien and Ripper completely by surprise.
|
|
Priya tells Damien that he saved their lives, so she convinced the team to vote him off. Millie knows that it's what Damien wanted and said it's their way of saying thanks, completely unaware that Damien no longer wanted to be eliminated. Chris sees the "happy ending" before saying that he doesn't care for that. At the Dock of Shame, Damien is upset about his elimination, noting the irony of not being eliminated when he wanted to and being eliminated right when he became more willing to play the game. Shortly during that rant, the Drone of Despair grabs him by the head and carries him away.

Trivia[]
General[]
- According to Terry McGurrin, he initially had some reservations over seeing the episode produced when its plot was discussed in the writers room of Total Drama Island (2023) but was ultimately won over by Neha Kohli's first draft.
- Julia is the only contestant to be never shown farting in the episode, as she didn't get to eat the beans at the beginning.
- Julia shows her real self for the first time.
- MK confirms that Millie didn’t vote Ripper in Numbskull Island and instead voted Scary Girl.
- Zee shows that he can move about without his prothesis, but not in the same dexterity, rather he'd be hopping.
Continuity[]
- Damien campaigns with buttons to get himself voted off, much like Dave in "Hurl and Go Seek" after Sky rejected him.
- Raj & Wayne both say "Turbo Boost" when they fart, most likely relating to when Brody mentioned that when Geoff says "Turbo Boost", it means he is about to fart in the finale of Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race.
- This challenge is similar to "Finders Creepers" and "Moon Madness".
- Ripper believed he was gonna get voted off mirrors how Gwen in "Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon, Cameron in "The Enchanted Franken-Forest", and Jasmine in "A Blast from the Past" where they believed they would get eliminated prior to the official elimination announcement.
References[]
- The name of the episode is a reference to Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park and its subsequent Universal film series.
- Another reference to the franchise would be the scene where Ripper says "Raptors can't open doors!", which parodies one of the climax's scenes from both the first novel and its 1993 film adaptation by Steven Spielberg.
- As with other depiction of raptors (namely the velociraptor) in popular culture, the ones in this episode are clearly based on the Jurassic Park movies. According to fossil records, the actual velociraptor is actually the size of a chicken and is covered with feathers. In fact, the dinosaur in the movie is modelled after the Deinonychus (based on its appearance and supposed intelligence) but with the size of the Utahraptor.
- The way Emma's skirt blows up because of her fart is reminiscent to the iconic scene of Marilyn Monroe's white dress blowing up in Billy Wilder's 1955 romantic comedy film The Seven Year Itch.
- Raj mention the Canadian NBA Basketball team, the Toronto Raptors.
Goofs[]
- One of Zee's "Vote for Damien" buttons was on his right calf, which should not be possible to stay on.
- The recording of Julia roasting the raptor is not the same as when she did so in the previous episode.
- The tone of her voice wasn't as angry and snobby.
- The recording cuts out her calling the raptor a "halitosisaurus."
- In one of Chase’s confessionals, the Frogs of Death icon is displayed, despite him not competing on said team.
