Team Kickin'-Waka

**Team Kickin'-Waka** is the first episode of season 3 of the newly renamed Good Luck, Liv and Maddie's Kickin' Suite Time Wizard ANT World Bunkin' Force.

## Plot

After a critical accident occurs when "Arthur\Rufus" returns, Chase and Tina lose all their money and must serve as the runners of Camp Kikiwaka. Josh abdicates his presidency to Doug so he and Maya can help them. They enroll all the kids at the camp, where they meet a gang of karate-lovers and the rather eccentric staff, some of whom seem like city folk uncomfortable in a country environment. One of them is strikingly familiar to Douglas. Some of the staff has their own kids, who quickly befriend the team. Paisley and Violet let Lexi 2 off on her own after Victor and Naldo 2 die, but things are about to take a turn for the worst.

## Trivia

* This episode appears to ignore the canon of seasons 3-present of BUNK'D in many ways.
	+ For example, Finn, Mateo, Destiny, et cetera are nowhere to be seen, although Lou does mention she has an annoying cousin with an active imagination when Heather claims to be a time-traveler.
	+ Meanwhile, Xander, Tiffany, and Jorge are still at the camp.
	+ In the past 20 years, Xander and Emma have moved together in a New York apartment and gotten married with kids, while Ravi, a scientist, and Zuri, a fashion designer in Wisconsin, which is where she and Parker fell in love, have become tired of their jobs and are helping at Kikiwaka for the summer. Griff and Lou are revealed have spouses, but they are not seen in the episode and Lou has not changed her last name. There is also plenty of unresolved tension between Griff and Zuri.

* This is the first time in the franchise where Luke is played by Adam Irigoyen due to the passing of his original actor Cameron Boyce, though in the episode Luke is wearing gloves, sunglasses, and a face mask, and said he got a bit of a tan from being in the sun too long.
* This episode is also dedicated in Boyce’s memory.
* This is the first episode filmed after Ceci Balagot came out as transgender, and August Kamp came out shortly after. Both agreed that they did not want their scenes cut, and they would still fulfill their 3-year contracts as the same characters they had been playing. However, both decided to end up leaving the franchise for good after this season, only for Chase McFly to agree they could portray transgender characters, and their old parts would be replaced by adult actors. He felt that people would not openly accept Barry and Smackle's transition, and decided to provide several hints about Arnold and Brianna's true gender identity throughout the season, including their hair, clothing, and general presentation. Kamp and Balagot also agreed that Brianna should be attracted to women and Arnold to men, to illustrate the importance that trans people can be of any sexuality, and also because of the pre-existing romances with Annie and Louis.
* From this season onward, China Anne McClain's sister Lauryn McClain assumes her original role, as China quit acting for the time being.
