Special"Total, Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island"November 29, 2008December 18, 2008

The 22 campers are resting at Playa De Losers (Spanish for "Beach of Losers")when Chris and Chef arrive to give Owen the choice of either keeping his one hundred thousand dollar check, or compete for a suitcase of a million dollars. Owen chooses to compete for the million, and all the campers are given the chance to win the money. The objective is to find the suitcase somewhere on the island. Everyone makes alliances to split the money and the suitcase travels from group to group.

After the case has been held and stumbled upon by every group, Courtney stumbles onto a strange painted forest background and discovers TDI has been held close to civilization the whole time. By this time she becomes enraged and finds an intern that has a hot air balloon and steals it to get to the campgrounds to try and "get Chris" because of what she just discovered. With this stolen hot air balloon, Courtney, along with Owen, Cody, DJ, Tyler, a grizzly bear, and the million dollar case drift to camp. LeShawna had also stolen a tractor and drives after Heather and Harold. This causes Heather, Harold, and LeShawna to crash into the water. Back at the parachute, the boys' alliance had the million dollar case, but Courtney believed she deserved it for getting everyone into the camp. As these five were arguing over who gets the money, the balloon was drifting close to a platform where Katie, Sadie, Geoff, and Bridgette were standing. These four ended up on the suspended platform because of a moose chasing after them, and it eventually starts to chase after Duncan, who fools it. While the hot air balloon almost hits the platform, Cody tells the boys, who have the case, that they need to jump to survive. Landing on the platform, the boys notice that Courtney took the case while they were jumping. Unfortunately, the bear was still in the hot air balloon causing Courtney to jump off onto the platform where Courtney, Cody, DJ, Owen, Tyler, Katie, Sadie, Geoff and Bridgette were fighting over the case. From Gwen and Trent's alliance, and out of nowhere, LeShawna came up to the platform to get the case from Courtney and the others. Since the case slipped from Courtney's hands, it landed in the area where Lindsay's team of Ezekiel, Beth, and herself, were walking to. As Lindsay almost doesn't even notice, she picks it up, but DOES notice from out of nowhere Justin got the keys to a plane (by using his hotness to woo Chef over) and skydives to Lindsay. Ezekiel and Beth get covered by his parachute, so they couldn't protect Lindsay from GIVING the case to Justin. As Lindsay gives the case away, due to her dim-wittiness, Justin's plane becomes free to move anywhere since he isn't piloting it. The plane crashes into the suspended platform where Courtney, LeShawna, Katie, Sadie, Geoff, Bridgette, Cody, Owen, DJ, and Tyler are standing. Justin, then, tries to walk back to the campgrounds to declare victory. Due to a previous attack of beauty that Justin did on Izzy's alliance (Izzy, Noah, and Eva), she has held a grudge and promised to herself that she will KEEP the case away from Justin. Izzy saw Justin in her sights and told Noah and Eva to dump buckets of fish-water whenever they see him in their sights. Being successful in this, Izzy dumps a third bucket on him, sticks it on his head, and steals the case back. While Izzy was running to campgrounds to declare victory, she trips and the case falls out of her hands. At this time, the suspended platform has broken in half making Katie, Sadie, Cody, Tyler, and Courtney fall in a pool below. Though DJ, LeShawna, Owen, Geoff, and Bridgette remain on the platform and slide down at super speed, they actually head for the case that Izzy dropped. While those six were sliding towards the case, Gwen and Trent see the case tumble right past them and run towards it. Then Lindsay and Beth try to run after Gwen and Trent, who are running after the case. Duncan, who is also after the case, and who upset the moose, has been thrown into the lake. The platform is still going super speed towards the case and it catches hold of Justin's parachute causing him to go super speed with the platform. As Izzy gets up and tries to get the case, she storms ahead of Justin and the platform of campers and she, along with Gwen, Trent, Lindsay, and Beth get caught on the platform with LeShawna and the others, and collide into the water with Heather and Harold, who were trying to get out of the water from a previous attack by LeShawna. The platform holding LeShawna, Owen, DJ, Geoff, and Bridgette; Izzy, Justin, Lindsay, Beth, Gwen, Trent, Heather, and Harold collide into the platform, making them all crash into the water. Next, the unthinkable happens. After all the work from trying to get the case, the case was eaten by a shark. Then, an upset Chris comes out to say that since they all couldn't win, they all officially tied, and that they will have an equal opportunity to win another million dollars in Season 2 of Total Drama Island, which is entitled Total Drama Action. As for the remaining eight campers, Chris told them that their challenges end there, and will watch all of TDA from the sidelines.

  • Note: Courtney sues the Total Drama network for not qualifying for Total Drama Action and for what the staff of Total Drama Action had did to her over the past months. Although she did not technically qualify for participation in the sequel, she has been proven to join the remaining cast-mates of TDA in a later episode entitled "Ocean's Eight - Or Nine"

This is a list of episodes for Total Drama Action, the second season of Total Drama Island, a Canadian animated television series which premiered on July 8th, 2007 on the Teletoon channel. This second season has ? episodes, each 22 minutes in duration. This season premiered on January 11, 2009 on Teletoon and June 11, 2009 on Cartoon Network.

1"Monster Cash"January 11, 2009June 11, 2009

The 14 cast mates arrive to a rough start, at the film studio back lot to meet Chris McClean, where he tells them about the modifications and changes from Total Drama Island to Total Drama Action. He then rushed them off to the "action scene" for their first challenge: To get to the actor's trailers without being attacked by the animatronic monster being controlled by Chef Hatchet.

E-Scope (Izzy) was the first to get captured because of her not paying attention to Owen's warnings about the monster being right behind her. It was revealed, then, that the losers of this challenge were to be dumped in a blow-up bouncy house. After E-Scope's elimination, the remaining cast-mates began to drift from each other.
Unmercifully making out in the Makeup Confessional, Geoff and Bridgette were the next to be eliminated by being distracted by each other.
After finding Harold, both he and LeShawna were caught by the monster around the beach area.
Justin was next to go after getting surprised by the monster. He also got a warm welcome by Geoff, Bridgette, LeShawna, and Harold when they began to stare at him after coming into the bouncy room.
Later, around the action scene trailers, both Lindsay and Heather were caught by the monster in plain sight.
With only DJ, Owen, Gwen, Trent, Duncan, and Beth left, DJ, Trent, Gwen, and Beth were caught because they stopped in their tracks to observe the "fakeness" of the film lot.
Hiding behind a fake car, Owen and Duncan gloat about how everyone else was caught. During the gloating, Duncan gets caught since he was cornered, though surprisingly, the monster (Chef), did not capture Owen. This is due to Owen ducking just in time when the monster reached for him and Duncan; and when it tried to grab him a second time, it was revealed that Owen was too heavy for it to pick up.

Owen, who took almost 10 hours to get to the actor's trailers, wins the first challenge. Chris then tells the group to go to the craft services tent (mess hall) for the second challenge. Having now split into guys vs. girls, the next part of the challenge was supposed to be a hunt to find a key hidden in a fake food props buffet, where the winner would first pick of the actor trailers, though Owen mistakes it for a speed-eating contest. He goes and eats almost everything on the buffet and burps up the hidden key, giving the guys the challenge win, also giving Owen the opportunity to choose the cast trailer for the boys. Due to a misconception, the monster, controlled by Chef Hatchet, squishes one of the two trailers. This trailer also happens to be the trailer that Owen picks to stay in (though the remaining trailer that the girls have to sleep in also gets squished as well). After both trailers have been repaired, the guys and girls work on their arrangements of who sleeps where (in the guys case) and who sleeps with or next to Heather (in the girls case). Though, due to an "alleged" miscalculation, Heather ends up getting two beds to herself, making it so no one would have to sleep near her.

(Note: Nobody was voted off this episode)
2"Alien Resurreggtion"January 18, 2009June 18, 2009

This episode basically picks up the exact next day from episode 1, as Owen still has some "internal bodily" problems after eating fake food props from the last challenge. This episode also triggers and sparks the soon conflict between bad boy Duncan and mysterious Trent; as Duncan begins to talk and flirt with Gwen more and more, leaving Trent feeling a little bitter. The 14 cast-mates eat as Chris tells them of their next genre and challenge: finding and bringing alien eggs back to home base (the film lot), without getting hit by the "mother alien"'s (Chef Hatchet in disguise) paint balls. The teens were then sent to an even more abandoned part of the film lot to find these alien eggs. The cast tried to use their GPS units to locate the eggs when they were stumped by some weird sucking noise. While some thought it was Chris, others thought it was Chef Hatchet. Either way, everyone was scared stiff until Beth, the brave heroine in disguise, marches towards the sucking noise, and looked to see it was Bridgette and Geoff making out even more than usual. After everyone gets rounded up together, they get stumped again about which way to go when an echoing "DANGER" warning is heard throughout the film lot. Everyone had their own way of interpreting which way to go, so temporary teams are made during this challenge:

  • Gwen, Trent, DJ, and Duncan
  • Lindsay, LeShawna, Beth, and Justin
  • E-Scope, Heather, Harold, and Owen
  • Geoff and Bridgette


In E-Scope's group, Harold was first to go when he was surprised by Chef Hatchet from behind, and was hit immediately. Owen believed it was finally time to "do his business", and actually pleaded Chef to shoot a paintball at him, so he could go to the bathroom. With only E-Scope and Heather left, E-Scope surprises both Chef and Heather by pulling out her very own paintball gun, declaring war on Chef. As Chef and E-Scope have their paintball fight, Heather manages to get away, and E-Scope somehow loses by not having her guard up when dodging earlier paintballs. Later, Geoff & Bridgette were shot when not looking, but instead, making out. Even though Heather did get away, Chef Hatchet caught up to her, and got revenge on her for last season when she put laxatives in his lunch. When Chef shot the defenseless girl, her wig went flying and landed on a holed floor, where it slid down into one of the holes and was lost forever. Lindsay's entire team was doused with paint-ball concentrate from above (not necessarily by Chef's paintball gun), eliminating them. Later, Gwen's team completed the first part of the challenge by finding alien eggs, though still having to get to home base, DJ was shot from behind, leaving Gwen Duncan and Trent to be the only ones left. They are stoped by Chris who drops grandes with paint on them. Duncan is splattered with paint while Trent and Gwen hide. Finally Trent and Gwen finish and win the challenge. This gave them the power to decide the teams. However, this also meant they would be competing against each other on the two teams. Chris then reveals that two castmates will be eliminated that night. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, Geoff and Bridgette are the ones voted off (with the new voting devices), due to making out with each other and not paying attention to anything.

Winning Team: Gwen and Trent
Losing Team: Geoff, Bridgette; E-Scope, Owen, Heather, Harold; DJ, Duncan; Leshawna, Lindsay, Beth, Justin
Bottom 3: Geoff, Leshawna, and Bridgette
Voted Off: Geoff and Bridgette

3"Riot On Set"January 25, 2009June 25, 2009

The 12 cast-mates report to the "acting" scene of the set and are faced with their next challenge: building a set and dressing up as fictional characters to star in their own man-made movie. The catch to doing this is what the cast mates have to do to win: it is announced that the movie they make has to make Chef Hatchet cry when watching the movie. By this time, the teams have been made and chosen. Harold, Heather, DJ, LeShawna, Duncan, and leader Gwen were now called the Screaming Gaffers. While Izzy, Owen, Beth, Justin, Lindsay, and leader Trent, were now called the Killer Grips. While the cast-mates decide on who will play which part, Chef Hatchet grabbed DJ (claiming to say that he "sees a lot of himself in DJ"), and tried to make a non-refusing illegal alliance with him. Chef Hatchet tries to toughen DJ up in exchange for half of his winnings (if he even wins). The movies that each team made only actually turned out to be a scene of that part of the movie. For the Screaming Gaffers, Duncan was the actor; Izzy was the actress for the Killer Grips. Due to a technicality and inconvience, Izzy, who was supposed to be a grandmother, got Duncan's script, which was of a gangster, and vice-versa. Duncan, of the Screaming Gaffers, impressed everyone with his hidden acting skills of being a depressed and possibly dying grandparent. At this point, everyone, including Chef and Chris are sniffling and crying over what has happened making Duncan and the Screaming Gaffers win and receive invincibility. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, it was Izzy who was voted off due to her losing the acting challenge so easily, her craziness, and because the other contestants became tired of her insistence on everyone calling her "E-Scope" instead of her actual name.

Winning Team: The Screaming Gaffers
Losing Team: The Killer Grips
Bottom 3: Lindsay, Justin and Izzy (E-Scope)
Voted Off: Izzy (E-Scope)

4"Beach Blanket Bogus"February 1, 2009July 2, 2009

The 11 castmates head off to a set of a surfing movie, and is told they will have 2 challenges: Chris has told the cast-mates that they will be going to the beach, and to bring their bathing suits. Ironically, the first challenge is to stay on a mechanical surf board inside a freezing room as long as posible. Chris, then tells them that they will eventually go to the beach. Not believing him, the cast-mates kept listening to find out that the team with the winner of the first challenge gets a 30 minute head start on the second challenge. Having a hard time to do this challenge in bathing suits and inside a freezing room, most of the cast-mates seen doing their challenge (i.e. Lindsay, Harold, Justin, LeShawna, Gwen, and Geoff) were off of the surfboard in under a few minutes. Being one of the last cast-mates to get on the mechanical surfboard, Duncan, with confidence, stayed on longer than the other cast-mates. Seeing this and Duncan's over-confidence, Chris starts to throw things at Duncan, including props, tables, and even Lindsay. Being on the mechanical surfboard the longest, Duncan's team, the Screaming Gaffers, won the 30 minute head start for the second challenge: a prop sand-castle building contest. The cast then heads off to the TDI set, Camp Wawanakwa, for the challenge. Around this time, Trent, leader of the Killer Grips, began to become obsessed with Gwen, and then, the number 9. On to the second challenge, the Killer Grips had just gotten started, when on the Screaming Gaffers, thanks to Harold, their sandcaste was nearing completion. As Beth, from the Killer Grips, went on and on about her friendship bracelets, she found an actual use for them concerning the challenge. She had her entire team pitch in on making their castle, and she used her friendship bracelets as props for them. The Killer Grips did win this challenge due to Harold and the Screaming Gaffers' sandcastle tumbling down from seagulls. The challenge then went off into a tie breaker: an "anything-goes", ol' school dance contest. The teams each chose a person from their team to dance in a freestyle jam to win the challenge. The Screaming Gaffers chose lively LeShawna, and the Killer Grips chose the mysterious Trent. As Trent remembered from what Owen and Gwen told him in the past, he thought of Gwen saying how much she loves to win. While LeShawna was freestyling everywhere, Trent started to fake his part of the dance, and fall right in front of Chris and Gwen's feet. Since Trent basically threw the competition for the Killer Grips, LeShawna and her "skills" won the entire challenge for the Screaming Gaffers.

The very hot and sweaty 11 castmates head to the "wild west" for their next set of challenges. Gwen is surprised to be getting a headcold during one of the hottest days she has experienced. As Trent still has an obsession over the number nine, he tries to "woo" Gwen over by helping her through this difficulty. With guns loaded with "blanks", Chris comes to tell the campers their first challenge: "mounting their steed" (getting on their horse) by jumping off a platform, trying to land on it. The most successful campers of a team win the challenge. Exposed to the humidity, LeShawna's hair frizzes out to a perfectly puffed afro. Gwen (by sneezing off the platform), Harold (by jumping and landing in a "bad position for a male"), and Duncan (by jumping and landing on Harold) of The Screaming Gaffers; and Owen (by jumping and landing on the ground because the horse moved ), Lindsay, and Beth (by jumping together) of The Killer Grips all successfully jumped and landed on the horse below, which caused a 3 to 3 tie. The next challenge was supposed to be a western target practice on the cast-mates, but Owen drank the water that was going to be used as ammunition against the cast-mates. So, Chris thought quickly to make another second tie-breaking challenge: an old-fashioned cow roping. The Killer Grips were to be cowboys and cowgirls, and The Screaming Gaffers were to be the cows. If the cowboys and cowgirls rope the cattle, The Killer Grips win, but if the cattle somehow rope the cowboys and cowgirls, The Screaming Gaffers win. In the end, The Screaming Gaffers find extra rope, and Gwen gets Lindsay, Duncan gets Trent, LeShawna ropes Beth, and Harold gets Justin, giving the win and invicinibility to The Screaming Gaffers. (as for Owen, he was too out-of-breath to move from previously chasing Harold). Later, Gwen notices what Trent has been trying to do to "help" her win. She tells Trent that she does not want to win by cheating, and breaks up with him. Hearing all of this about what Trent has been doing, a furious Justin confronts Gwen and orders her to tell everything to The Killer Grips that she just told their captain. The Killer Grips, then find out that their captain has been throwing challenges to help the other team win. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, it was Trent who got voted off due to his team finding out that he had been throwing challenges to help Gwen and The Screaming Gaffers win. As Trent leaves, Chris says "3:10 to Crazytown"

Winning Team: The Screaming Gaffers
Losing Team: The Killer Grips
Bottom 2: Owen
Voted Off: Trent

6"TDA Aftermath: Trent's Descent"February 15, 2009July 16, 2009

The 8 non-participating and eliminated contestants all appear on a talk show, hosted by Geoff and Bridgette. This episode is comprised of non-participating and eliminated contestants of Total Drama Action, sneak peek clips of upcoming episodes, never-before-seen clips not shown during regular showtime, fictional fan e-mails and webcasts, bloopers, games . The host and hostess then talk about the two cast-mates who have been kicked off Total Drama Action, Izzy and Trent. The gang then recaps on Izzy's time on Total Drama Action, and later, brings her out to talk. Izzy then comes to talk about her latest obsession with crackers, along with telling the world of her previous boyfriend, "Graham" (somewhat short for Graham Cracker). She then reveals a secret that Chef Hatchet came with his illegal alliance to help Izzy win before consulting DJ. After finishing with Izzy, the hosts move to Trent. Trent finds out, and is devestated, especially being the last one to know, that Gwen stabbed Trent in the back by telling his team to vote him off during a Gilded Chris Ceremony. Geoff and Bridgette began to argue over how and why Trent was kicked off on Total Drama Island, and Geoff ends up saying the wrong thing . Geoff and Bridgette, along with the non-participating contestants talk about which side, in Gwen or Trent's defense, to take. The two end up taking opposing sides and start to argue on why the other was right about which person. Trent comes out to talk about the experience he had on Total Drama Action with Gwen, and reminisices on what he "thought" about Duncan. Courtney finds out about "Gwen and Duncan" and gets slightly angered. He also reveals a secret about his number nine obsession. He says that Duncan only assumed his logic when the real reason was that he had a toy train that he was very close to, given to from his grandfather, whom he was also close to. The train had ten wheels, and before Trent's grandfather died, a wheel fell off the train, making the train only have nine wheels. Chris McClean and Eva, then try to sabotage the show in their own special way (i.e. Chris disguised himself as Sasquatchinakwa and jealously told Geoff and Bridgette off for having their own show. Eva disguised her voice as a fan who wanted to be on "Team Eva", though it didn't last long, since the voice disguise wore off). Bloopers were later shown. Later, it was Trent's love song of what happened between him and Gwen, that brought almost everyone to tears, and Bridgette and Geoff back together. For almost the rest of the entire episode, Geoff and Bridgette spent the remaining time making out.

7"The Chefshank Redemption"April 5, 2009July 23, 2009

The remaining 10 castmates are having a peaceful sleep, until they were awakened by an ear-shattering bullhorn noise. In each trailer, neither team could get out of the main door for some unknown reason. Each decided to use their skill in their own special way. Duncan, Harold, and Justin used Owen as a battering ram to get the boys' door open (but failed when the door automatically opened right when they were about to make impact). Claustrophobic Gwen from the girls' trailer started to freak out in an enclosed space, and asked Heather, the skinniest of the girls, to climb up the vent to try unlocking the door from the outside, and was successful. Chef, still trying to toughen up DJ, made him eat some "slop" that was supposed to strengthen him from the inside out. With 9 of the 10 remaining campers, Chris and the cast-mates head to "prison", where he told them of their first challenge: the prison "chow-llenge". Each team was to chose a cast-mate from the opposing team to be locked inside a cage while the remaining members of each team prepare a dish using ANY "ingredient" that they wanted. Whichever cast-mate holds down the food longest wins a golden shovel for the next challenge; the losing team gets spoons for each member. This baffled all of the cast-mates. The Screaming Gaffers chose Lindsay (because of a past experience Lindsay had within solitary seclusion). The Killer Grips chose Gwen (because she still "owed" the Grips for what she had a part of). DJ of the Screaming Gaffers added his mother's re-occurring famous spice to this mix for Lindsay. The foods were ready to be served. Gwen could barely hold down The Killer Grips' concoction, while, courtesy of the famous spice, Lindsay had no problem eating her dish, making it known that the spice made the dish better. While Gwen was eating her dish, she coughed up Beth's retainer (that somehow fell into the concoction while it was being made). Without even washing it, Beth put it back in her mouth; which caused Lindsay to throw up from the sight, making The Screaming Gaffers the winners of the first challenge. Throughout these challenges, Heather started to notice Gwen's strange behavior towards The Grips. Later, DJ goes to Chef Hatchet to take pride in his challenge win, and Chef Hatchet immediately shunned him, but actually opens up for one of the first times to DJ.
Chris directs the remaining cast-mates to the second challenge: escaping from the Total Drama Action jail-cells. Unlike the first challenge, Chris told the cast-mates that this would be the challenge to determine who wins invincibility. Each team was to have one cast-mate push a rolling laundry basket through an obstacle course, with the other teammates inside it, towards a wall, where the teams must use their tools (shovel or spoons) to dig a hole upwards toward the boxcars' finish line. Gwen nominated herself to push the cart since she still "owed" The Grips some kind of advantage. The Grips wanted to make sure the competition seems fair (so The Gaffers wouldn't notice the huge advantage they would have had if they chose Owen) so they chose Lindsay. Gwen rockets from the starting line and Lindsay has trouble pushing Owen and The Killer Grips. Gwen then faked a "cramp" problem to help Lindsay pull ahead. At the wall, The Grips arrived first and started to use their spoons to tunnel through. LeShawna, of The Screaming Gaffers, came right after them and started using the shovel. As LeShawna started to get ahead, Gwen faked a claustrophobia panic attack, stole the shovel from LeShawna, and shattered it on Harold's head ( a la Walt Disney Cartoons), causing him to pass out, leaving no way but their hands to tunnel through the dirt. During this time, in the make-up confessional, it was confirmed that Harold had a "crush" on Heather, LeShawna, and Gwen after the incident. As they were about to start, Izzy came out of nowhere and claimed to have been living underground, and also claimed to know a shortcut out of the tunnel. The Gaffers did follow her, only to find that The Grips had already won the challenge, courtesy of Lindsay and Beth. The Killer Grips notice Izzy's return as she exclaimed to both Chris and The Grips that they voted off E-Scope, technically making Izzy (which will be the name she will be referred as) still in the competition. Back at the set, The Killer Grips bask in their victory, seeing Owen and Izzy reunited, while the Gaffers attend their first ceremony. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, it was Gwen who got "voted off" for being a "stickler" for her "owing" another reason is that Gwen threw challenge for The Grips, thus, basically eliminating herself.

Winning Team: The Killer Grips

8"One Flu Over The Cuckoos"April 12, 2009July 30, 2009

The 10 castmates are returning from their previous challenge, with Izzy saying what parts of the set she remembers. They soon discover that their doors to their trailers are locked, Chris then pulls up and hands them textbooks on medical care. After giving them twenty orders of pizza, he says memorize everything in them by morning. The cast mates then start studying (though Justin is too distracted by his skin care and Izzy and Owen are too distracted by each other). Meanwhile DJ and Chef are working on making more pizza (with DJ adding his mother's ingredient). Later Duncan and LeShawna give up studying and walk out. LeShawna (who just lost her major ally Gwen) then tells Duncan they should form an alliance with Harold to counter Gwen (to which Duncan snickers). The next morning, the challenge begins, which is to have a castmate retrieve pieces of dead body parts in a pool and bring them back to life with lighting (similar to Frankenstein). Chris asks a medical question and Beth gets it right and goes first, only to discover there are electric eels in the pool (which Chris forgot to warn about). Beth is still able to retrieve a leg for her team. Owen answers the next one and goes next and successfully gets an arm. The teams continue to build their bodies (which turn out to be Chris replicas), but the Gaffers face troubles as Duncan continues to bully Harold (which LeShawna breaks up). LeShawna attempts to call an alliance with the two, but Harold refuses. The two teams finish their bodies and are racing to get it up to the lighting, when Izzy notices a red sore on Owen. The challenge is soon halted as Chris dashes out and the cast mates believe Owen has a contagious and fatal disease. The cast mates quickly contain Owen in a plastic bubble when they notice DJ has a sore too. After containing him too, everyone but Duncan and LeShawna (who were the only one who didn't study) show signs of the illness. The two quickly race to get textbooks, only to discover the books are fake. They soon discover that Chef had drugged the pizza they ate with itching powder and the sores were only pepperoni slices. Upon learning the truth, Chris congratulates the cast mates for completing another challenge. He then reveals the winner gets a spa night with away from the set with their best friend. The Gaffers vote for LeShawna, who is crying saying she thought she was going to lose everyone. She then reveals to her friend that it was only an act to get her team to vote her away from the set. Chris explains if the team would be mad at her or not.

*Note: This is a non-elimination episode, meaning no one was eliminated or voted off.

9"The Sand Witch Project"April 19, 2009August 6, 2009

The remaining 10 castmates are faced with their next challenge: a horror movie trilogy, the castmates are busy playing cards and soccer, when Chris makes them do a challenge where one castmates tries to scare another, where their scream is detected on the Scream-o-meter. The Screaming Gaffers win, due to the DJ and Chef Hatchet alliance. Then the Screaming Gaffers successfully complete the second part of the challenge, to scare the Killer Grips, after two failures, both because of Lindsay trying to be a leader, saying that the Ghostmeters aren't reading anything, the first time, Harold used his "magic tricks" to fake a ghost hiding Duncan's soccerball under a sheet. The second time, Duncan pouring ketchup on the walls making it look like blood. DJ gets flashbacks mistaking Heather for his mom being disappointed for him cheating. Around this time, DJ begins to feel a bit guilty about his alliance with Chef and starts to wonder if it's even worth it. The scene then flashes to the Gilded Chris Ceremony, either Lindsay or Justin was about to get the last trophy. Realizing that he's almost about to cost a Killer Grip their chance at $1 million from winning a challenge "dirtily", DJ rushes to the Gilded Chris Ceremony, and confesses to Chris, The Killer Grips, and The Screaming Gaffers (treading behind him, trying to figure out what was wrong) everything about the alliance that he and Chef formed. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, despite the protest of the other castmates, especially Duncan Justin and Owen, who tried to convince him to stay, DJ voted himself off, therefore trying to clear his guilt and shame over the illegal and strange alliance by quitting the competition.

10"Masters Of Disasters"April 26, 2009August 13, 2009

The 9 remaning castmates participate in another challenge. The contestants are forced into obstacle courses with natural disasters within them such as earthquakes, "volcano lava", and floods (Also, Chef throws miscellaneous objects such as footballs and blenders at the campers). When the 1st challenge starts, the Gaffers made it to the finish line, however Owen broke his jaw during the first challenge and his injury made the Grips automatically win the first challenge, and Owen was drove off to the hospital in between the challenges. Then in the 2nd challenge, the contestants are forced into a submarine with water leaking into the submarine. However, when the water level got to high, Chris wanted the contestants to evacuate the challenge due to the contestants can die, but chef accidentally broke the lever. However, Harold helped the Gaffers win the challenge by cracking a code to a locked up exit, using the straws he collected earlier as a scuba. At the end, the Gaffers were given the reward oppertunity to have a free vacation on top of an active volcanoe, but they refused the reward, and instead got pop and chips. Then before the episode ended, Owen returned to the set where he will join the Grips for eating. Now, Owen looks as if he will not be useful in the challenges anymore. The pressure goes on.

11"Full Metal Drama"May 3, 2009August 20, 2009

The 9 remaining contestants compete in a war-themed challenge. The contestants' 1st challenge was simple: they all have to jump out of an airplane, but when they jumped out they find out that the airplane was never really in the air only 50ft. Then they have to do harder challenges but the selfishness, thoughtlessness and foolishness of all the castmates (except Beth) sabotaged both teams. On the Grips side, Owen was having difficulty with having his jaw wired shut (as he couldn't chew solid food), hindering the Grips; Justin was more concerned with how he looked, messing up the 2nd challenge (and angering Lindsay and Beth); Lindsay "promoted" herself to "Admiral Lindsay, her Hotness" and became way too bossy again costing the team. Duncan (for the Gaffers) proved to be an expert on explosives. Izzy (for the Grips) however started calling herself "Explosivo" (insisting that everyone call her that) and went too far with the explosives (again) costing the Grips the challenge. Owen difficulties got worse as the "blinderized" food he swallowed caused the return of the "internal bodily" problems from Episode 2; Chef, as atonement for his "bad behavior", made him a "bran smoothie" to help but he wouldn't drink it. Justin's hotness powers no longer work on Lindsay or Beth anymore. Justin asked Explosivo if he was hot and she said no so Justin voted for Explosivo to get voted off out of anger. Meanwhile, The Screaming Gaffers found out that LeShawna lied to them in Episode 8 and would not forgive her. To make matters worse she drank the "bran smoothie" Chef made for Owen and began passing gas throughout the final challenge. Duncan and Harold were trying equally as hard to get a win for their team, but were working against each other; Heather, of course, complained about the others and ran out when LeShawna started passing gas. Although all four team members started arguing with each other, in the end the Gaffers won despite themselves. Duncan and Harold won it for the team (by Luck) but Duncan, surprisingly, gave all the credit to Harold, who then gave the credit to the whole team. Later at the Gilded Chris Ceremony, it is Izzy (Explosivo) who is eliminated, because she lost the second challenge for the Grips (and because Justin convinced Lindsay and Beth to help vote her off when he "gained" some of his "powers" back).

12"TDA Aftermath: Hating Gwen"May 10, 2009August 27, 2009

Geoff and Bridgette host another TDA Aftermath show; they talk with Gwen and DJ about their time on TDA. As Izzy was eliminated before she's seen with the other "commentators". Everyone seems to hate Gwen now, Trent has gotten a lot of fan mail since his break-up with Gwen, and Courtney is angered at Gwen for being a little to close to Duncan so she leaves calling her lawyer. There is a clip of Gwen and Duncan wrestling and they fall on each other, and Geoff makes her look worse by saying how close her and Duncan's lips were, and continuely telling bad things about her after every sentence. Courtney angrily tells Gwen off, believing that she has her "goth girl hooks" in Duncan, and storms off to talk to her lawyer. DJ tries to explain his "illegal alliance" with Chef, but Geoff once again tries to make him look bad just as he does Gwen. It doesn't work on DJ as much, as DJ's mother has now made an appearance and throws food at Geoff to stop from humiliating her son any further. Now everyone is turning on Geoff as well, as he's beginning to act similar to Chris Mclean, Heather, and Justin. It is than found out that Izzy has just been a cut-out standee all along and she swings onto stage to be interviewed but is chased by and outsmarts security (Chef in a security outfit) and runs off stage. During this stunt she refers to herself as "Esquire" hinting a possible return as a contestant in a later episode of TDA. It is later revealed that Bridgette thinks that Geoff has let being on T.V., and the ratings, go to his head, and sends a question to Gwen saying that Geoff thinks he's 'Captain Hollywood' and want's to know what she should do about it; but Bridgette attempts to deny it was from her, but fails.

13"Ocean's Eight - Or Nine"June 24, 2009September 3, 2009

The eight remaining contestants compete in a bank heist challenge. Meanwhile none of the Gaffers will let LeShawna live down the events of the last five episodes and she has had it with the antics of her current and former teammates, and vows to make them all pay. The first challenge is to break a teammate out of a bank vault and use the bank robbing tools the teammate has with them to rob the bank, Owen for the Grips and LeShawna for the Gaffers. Harold and Heather quarrel over breaking the safe, but then they remember that Duncan is a criminal. They judge LeShawna to be of no use to them and leave her in the safe for the rest of the days challenges. Meanwhile, the Grips use the scent of roasted chicken to get Owen to break out of his safe. Since they ignored the safe, the Gaffers get to the bank teller first, who turns out to be Courtney. Chris announces Courtney has come back after successfully suing the show and will be joining the competition. Chris lets Courtney decide which team gets the bank money, and Courtney gives it to the Gaffers, since they reached her first. The Grips gets the consolation prize, which is revealed to be Courtney joining their team. This decision not only brings forth Courtney's anger, she also tries to call her lawyer in an attempt to sue the show once again. In the last challenge, the teams have to make a getaway by making a go kart out of junk parts, and then drive it to the finish line. Courtney immediately takes charge, becoming more bossier than Lindsay and Justin combined. Since Duncan has experience with this sort of thing, the Gaffers lead, but then they run out of gas. Since they can't drive, the Grips decide to grab onto their kart and run to the finish line. Duncan tries to start their kart, but the Grips pull ahead, and come close to winning, but their kart falls apart, and they crash. This allows the Gaffers to win by pushing their kart across the finish line, making the Gaffers the winners. At the Gilded Chris Ceremony, Chris announces that Courtney gets invincibility due to her lawsuit saying that she can't be voted off on the first challenge she's back on, forbidding them from voting her off. Despite this, the other four Grips (not wanting her to become their new captain) still try to vote off Courtney, which nullfies their votes. Courtney voted for Owen and he was eliminated, as only her vote counted. Due to the unfairness of the results, Chris allowed Owen to deliver a farewell "Elimination Speech," where he thanked Chris, Justin, Lindsay and Beth. Courtney protested, but Chris told her that her lawyers couldn't stop it. Everyone has already forgotten about LeShawna, who is still locked within the safe, asking to be let out.

Winning Team: The Screaming Gaffers
Losing Team: The Killer Grips
Bottom 2: Courtney
