So, Uh This Is My Team?

The new season of Total Drama begins with fourteen new contestants arriving at a new island and finding out it's much tougher than the previous one. They are placed on two teams, and the race to win starts as they have to build their new homes. One contestant's annoying ability and unhelpful tendencies get him sent flying.
==Plot==
Chris reviews the events of last season's destructive finale before introducing the location for this season, a Cree island in Western Canada named Pahkitew Island. The island is shown to be the least luxurious location in Total Drama history thus far, with no lodges, no showers, no hotels, no hot tubs, and no cafeteria. The only thing surviving from last season is the confessional outhouse and all the smells that come with it.
The cast is aboard a blimp en route to the new island. Sky observes Ella rocking and humming along to a swinging light. She takes out a piece of gum for herself and offers some to Max, who warns her that this gesture would not save her from his "pure evil," but nonetheless accepts. However, he quickly spits it out, due to disliking the cinnamon flavor and deems it too spicy. Dave watches this exchange and comments on how Max is "a little weird," and turns around to Leonard, in time to see him attempt to cast a spell to ward off evil. Ella begins to sing with beat-box accompaniment from Beardo. Amy is disgusted by all this, and orders her twin sister, Samey, switch seats with her. Samey complies to her sister's demands with a sigh. Amy looks over to her right and screams about a "giant" sitting there. Jasmine glares back and asks if they are "going to have a problem." Meanwhile, Topher is frantically searching the blimp looking for Chris. Sugar becomes so irritated by his "fidgeting" that she slams him into the door and threatens to "toss him out the window" if he "scuffs her pageant shoes." She notes how he'll be "squished flat in two minutes," which prompts Scarlett to walk up and correct her, sounding very smart in the process. Rodney comments about her brains to Shawn, who coils up at the mention of the word "brains." The blimp enters some turbulence and parts start to rain from the ceiling while the contestants scream and panic.
Chris appears in a flash of lightning. He asks his new "victims" if they're ready for some fun. Ella and Topher pop up next to him in excitement, and he assures them that humiliation and pain will soon change their enthusiasm. Chris then continues to review the components of the blimp, explaining the emergency exits and parachute packs. According to him, half of the packs are genuine parachutes while others are filled with useless junk. Sky suggests that likely they won't need them. Chris responds with a vague statement about the season having surprises as he presses a button programmed to blow up one of the zeppelin's turbines. The blimp starts to lose altitude, and the competitors, once again in a panic, scramble to each obtain a pack and evacuate the crashing vehicle. Topher offers one to Chris, who declines as he is a hologram. Chef is flabbergasted, as well as angry that he is not a hologram himself. He snatches Topher's second parachute and jumps. Jasmine, Amy, Samey, Topher, Rodney, Scarlett, and Max all find that their packs contain parachutes, much to their relief. While Beardo, Sky, Sugar, Dave, Leonard, Chef Hatchet, Ella, and Shawn all descend without anything to assist them. Ella luckily is able to enlist the help of a nearby bird, which carries her down gently. Jasmine grabs on to Shawn and Leonard, and Sky uses her acrobatic skill to slide down a tree branch and into the lake. Samey lands safely and happily cheers about her accomplishment until Amy uses her to break her fall.
After the contestants abandon their packs, Chris places everyone who had a parachute on his right, and everyone who didn't on his left. The right team is deemed the "," which he has a little trouble pronouncing. He thinks this is Cree for "Soaring Eagles," but Sky corrects him since their name actually means "Floating Salmon." After Chris places these members on the team, Samey tries to change the pronunciation of her name to "Sammy." However, Chris tells her that Amy said that everyone calls her Samey because she is the lesser Amy, and declares that she will officially be called Samey from that point on leaving Samey slightly distraught.
 
Chris names the left team the "," which he believes translates to "Ferocious Tigers," but Sky corrects him again stating it actually meant "Confused Bears." Chris blames Chef for all the confusion, as he used a free online translator to obtain the Cree terms.

He elaborates to the competitors some of the basics of Pahkitew Island, including its lack of anywhere for them to sleep. Building their own shelter is their very first challenge, with the teams being instructed to settle on different sides of the island. Their objective for the first part is to claim as many pieces of useful supplies as possible while Chef hurls tennis balls at them. The contestants retreat to safety to form strategies. Jasmine automatically claims leadership over Kinosewak and Sky does so for Maskwak. Jasmine and Rodney speak over each other trying to explain their plans. Jasmine confronts Rodney directly insisting they need to get the "important" items. 
	
This causes him to become infatuated with her. Scarlett speaks up informing her that they need to get the wheelbarrow so they can carry their items. In the midst of her suggestion, Samey realizes what she means and attempts to finish her sentence, only to have Amy claim ownership of it. Jasmine finishes giving out her orders.
Meanwhile, Maskwak, under Sky's influence, decides to go one by one. Shawn easily evades Chef's fire due to his zombie survival training. Shawn enters his range, grabs a can of cream of broccoli soup, and quickly escapes. While both teams gather supplies, Jasmine suggests her team to get something good.
	
Meanwhile, Dave is frustrated by Shawn's worthless get. Sugar tries to reassure him by acknowledging Leonard, the "wizard on their team." 
Topher climbs the boulder that Chris and Chef are stationed on. He asks if Chris is about to throw to a commercial break, as he has always wanted to see him do so live. Chris obliges, appreciating Topher's "intelligence," and cuts to commercial as the latter applauds him.
After the break, Chris has Chef throw Topher back into the challenge. As he lands, Ella dances by singing to her bird friends. Chris is simultaneously annoyed and confused. 
Back in the challenge, Ella happily announces her retrieval of a bucket of glitter. Leonard is enthralled. Dave and Sugar, on the other hand, are infruiated by her. Sky tells Dave to serve as a decoy while Beardo grabs the supplies they need. Dave draws Chef's attention after being pushed out into the line of fire. Beardo aims to collect something, running in slow motion and makes the sound effects to match. Dave tries to snap him out of it, but Beardo collapses when he is hit in the crotch. Leonard attempts to stop Chef's barrage by using magic, to no avail. Sky uses a spare piece of wood to deflect one of Chef's shots and send it back to him. He is hit in the face and given a black eye, with the challenge ending soon after. 
Chris announces that whatever the contestants currently have is what they will use to build their shelters. Max roams around looking for an "evil lair," while practicing his evil laughter, and goes inside a cave, where he instantly is spooked away by a swarm of bats chasing after him. 
As Jasmine orchestrates the creation of Kinosewak's shelter, a tree house, the team hears construction noises coming from Maskwak's side. Samey questions what they could build, but Jasmine doesn't care, simply telling everyone to work even harder. It is then revealed that Maskwak actually hasn't made any progress; the noises were just Beardo trying to psych out the other team. Leonard suggests that they build a wizard tower, which earns the approval of Ella, Sugar, and Beardo. Dave remains reluctant, but Sky reasons that, as there was a majority vote, they have no other choice. He agrees under those conditions.
Jasmine hammers the final nail into the roof of Kinosewak's treehouse. Chris, wearing his jetpack, compliments it and commends their decision to place it above ground. Max questions why and soon finds out when he is trampled by a herd of moose. Team Maskwak completes its wizard tower around the same time, and Dave says that their shelter is useless, but Leonard brushes it off saying that it's still not done, not until Sugar sprinkles it with glitter. Then, Shawn wanders off, confusing Dave. 
When the moose run by, the tower survives. That is, however, until Leonard touches it, which causes it to fall as Leonard casts a "force field spell," which surprisingly leaves him unharmed. Chris declares their team the losers, and that they will have no shelter to live in for the rest of the season. At the first elimination ceremony, where Beardo and Leonard are in the bottom two: Beardo for not doing anything helpful whatsoever, and Leonard for coming up with the idea of building the wizard's tower that was a failure. In the end, it is Leonard who receives the final marshmallow. Beardo is put in the Cannon of Shame, the new elimination device, and as he is blasted off he yells that it was nice to meet everyone surprising his team. However, Chris doesn't care and signs off the episode afterward.

===References===
*After Chef got hit by Sky, Chris says "Wowzers" possibly referencing to Inspector Gadget's catchphrase.
*One of Leonard's spell incantations is a reference to the Harry Potter spell "Expelliarmus," which disarms the caster's opponent.
*Leonard's line, "Go back to the shadows of Wawanakwa, you shall not pass," is a reference to a famous line said by Gandalf in Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.
*When Beardo is eliminated, the sound effect he made is from the Pac-Man series whenever Pac-Man loses a life.
**Furthermore, Beardo making the Pac-Man sounds is quite likely a reference to Larvelle Jones from the Police Academy franchise (played by Michael Winslow, who was the inspiration for Beardo), as one scene features Jones playing an imaginary Space Invaders arcade game where he provides all of the game's sound effects.
===Goofs===
*Chef falls off the zeppelin first, followed by Topher; however, Topher appears first, followed by Amy, and then Chef in the next scene.

*For a brief second, when Amy lands on Samey, the two lines on the one side of Samey's hair do not meet at the top of her hair.
*The cleft on Rodney's chin disappears when falling and slowing down with a parachute.
*When Rodney hugs Topher, Topher only has three fingers instead of four on his right hand.
*Scarlett's skin tone changes a few times in this episode to a paler color:

**When she landed on the ground after falling with a parachute.
**Briefly before pulling the cart with Max on it.

**When the contestants meet at the challenge meeting area right after the challenge.
