Anne Banovic (created by Attackin2) is one of the twenty-two contestants from Total Drama: Space Station that was originally placed on the Atomic Penguins. Her title is the Class Clown.

## Relationships

### Friends

Natt, Dusty, Liz, Gretchen, Benjamin, Archie, March, Flint

## **Appearance**

Anne is on the shorter half of the contestants, standing at 5'6" (168cm). She has tan skin, long and curly black hair, and emerald green eyes. Her regular outfit consists of a red and green Hawaiian shirt, black shorts, and black sandals, while her space suit is green with polka dots scattered about it.

## **Personality**

Despite being in a cast full of odd people, Anne seems to stick out from the group as one of the weirdest. She's generally in a good mood, despite what may be going on around her, and displays an "amazing" sense of humor, cracking jokes and making puns at every opportunity. Despite her cheerful nature, she'll still get angry at those who mess with her friends and try to take them down a notch, as seen in "Space Monkey, that Funky Monkey" when she stands up to Luna in Natt's defense.

## **History**

### An Out of this World Encounter Part 1

Anne was the first astronaut to reveal herself for rollcall, having a rubber chicken in place of her head when she took her helmet off. She was excited to see everyone's reaction to the gag when she eventually popped her head up, but nobody seemed too thrilled, especially Chris.

She was placed on the Atomic Penguins when Chris assigned the teams after everyone was accounted for.

When the contestants first received their devices, Anne was quick to make a witty comment, saying "We get service in space? That's out of this world!" Once again, Chris was not amused by her wittiness and he quickly dismissed her.

Though not shown in the episode, while everyone is picking their rooms, Anne ends up in between Crustacean and Liz's rooms, while across the hall from Natt's.

### An Out of this World Encounter Part 2

Anne is mentioned as a "weirdo" by Chris in the recap of the previous episode.

After everyone splits up to search for the medallion, Anne is with Natt in Chef's room, digging through his belongings. There, she finds a jar of anchovies and calls Natt's attention to make a pun with her name. Despite Natt saying that her pun was funny, his lack of emotion made her think that it was a bad pun and she insisted she'd do something better for him.

Anne is startled by Thomas, who enters Chef's room silently and translates the odd plaque. She's impressed by Thomas' translation skills as he explains them.

During part 2 of the challenge, she chases Alex into a wall and takes him out by sticking him to the wall, though she's quickly stuck to him by Thomas. Despite getting out early in the challenge, it didn't bother her, as she made more jokes about it.

### Moon Rockin'

Anne is present before Liz explodes herself with a fail concoction. She tells her "I'm not very bright, how about you en*light*en me," right before things go awry. Her first confessional is also in this episode, where she makes a joke about the experiment blowing out of proportion.

Anne remains silent for most of the challenge until her team ultimately loses. Even when they're faced with their first loss, she is somehow still able to make a joke about Alexis messing things up, appearing unphased by the loss.

Upon receiving her marshmallow in the elimination ceremony, she notes that they should be called "Mars-mallows." This comment annoyed her team.

Much like the rest of her team, excluding Alexis herself, she voted for Alexis in their first elimination.

### An Anne-tastic Game of Capture the Flag

Anne's first appearance in this episode is in the recap, which Chef is doing. She says the episode will be "Anne-tastic," causing the co-host to chase after her as she runs away.

When Chef blares his horn to wake up the contestants, Anne runs out into the hall and bumps into Liz, causing her to hit her head against the metal wall and develop a case of Foreign Accent Syndrome, speaking in a high-end British accent for the bulk of the episode. When Liz checks to see if Anne is okay, she says her name is Annabelle, ringing a bell after as a sort of joke, but startling herself with her new voice. She then notes that it's got her "tongue-tied."

In the confessional, Anne speaks in a drastically different manner and with new words in her vocabulary, one of which that confused her being "poppycock."

When Chef finally gets all of the contestant's in front of him, he steps on a whoopie cushion, which he blamed on Anne for conveniently whistling inconspicuously at the time. Her newfound accent is also taken with offense, as if she's mocking him, though she insists it's because of a head injury. After being yelled at, she appeared very uncomfortable until Natt claimed that he had put the whoopie cushion in place. This not only got her off the hook, but caused her some question as to Natt's intentions, stating that "he doesn't care about comedy" in the confessional.

Anne was selected as one of the flag thieves for the challenge, alongside Natt, Gretchen, Liz, and Flint.

Alongside Natt, Anne threw pies at the faces of Damien and March in the auditorium, stealing their flags with ease before running out into the hall. She congratulates Natt, saying that he has what it takes to be a "right and proper comedian."

After laughing at something Natt said to her, she slipped on a banana peel, causing her to hit her head on the floor and fix her voice. She also cleverly says, when asked if she was okay, that she's not okay, she's Anne. She assumed that Natt placed the banana peel their as a gag, but he denies this. She never comes to understand that he didn't, though.

### Space Monkey, that Funky Monkey

Anne is briefly mentioned in the recap session where Chris makes a note about her Foreign Accent Syndrome.

She remains silent as Chris introduces the medallion to everyone, though she angrily approached Luna after she made a snarky comment about Natt being creepy. She called her attitude "trash" and almost got into a brawl with her, until Dusty pulled her back to their own table.

In the confessional, Anne sadly notes that she used her best insult already and should've saved it for later. She then says she'll need to top it the next time she sees the "mousey girl" (referring to Luna).

At the start of the challenge, Anne is instructed by Vicente, along with Crustacean, to administer the sedative that Liz makes to the space monkey. She likes the idea, saying that it would be a "knockout plan," earning a laugh from Natt, which she accepts as a little victory.

Later in the challenge, Anne laughs at Gretchen as she's being hissed at by the space monkey, and makes a classic Anne joke. Crustacean tells her it could've been better, giving an example and making her realize that she's starting to open up to them.

When Liz finished the sedative, Anne grabbed the monkey's arm for Crustacean to administer the shot.

### L and L on Lockdown

Anne is mentioned in the recap when Chris says that Crustacean and her were joking around together.

Along with the rest of her team, she notices the stench liquid that Liz dropped in front of Gretchen's door, but she doesn't say anything about it.

For most of the challenge, she is inactive, though, upon being suggested to use a prop to get past Thomas and Haley, she insists she'll use a very large broom to "sweep them off their feet." Her plan is quickly thwarted by Thomas mocking it and offending her.

She appears with her team when Gretchen and Dusty catch Vicente falling for Tony's trap, though she, once again, says nothing about.

In the elimination ceremony, she gets her marshmallow right after Benjamin, who swallows his with the packet still on. She remarks this as funny.

She voted for Vicente in the elimination ceremony, much like the rest of her team.

### A Martian Marathon

Anne first shows up when everyone is heading down to the dock. She's walking with Natt, wondering what the challenge could be. In response to a joke from Natt, she suggests that the challenge might have something to do with stealing blocks from space pirates.

Chef doesn't target Anne in the challenge, though he does target Natt, to which she stops to reassure him that Chef is just jealous of everyone being happy because he "looks like an angry bulldog."

After the Penguins lose the challenge, she appears confused as to why she was never targeted by Chef. She asks Benjamin what happened to him that made him get out soon after.

In the elimination ceremony, she interrupts Chris's monologue and gets confetti in his hair, ticking him off once more. When she gets her marshmallow, she's seen jumping for joy.

She voted for Flint in the elimination ceremony, along with Crustacean, Dusty, and Natt.

## **Relationships**

### Natt:

Anne and Natt started dating at the end of "How to Maybe Protect a Species." Anne has always shown genuine interest in Natt, despite his exterior and lack of emotion. She has stood up for him in the past, when he was under attack by Luna, and spends most of her free time with him. She has also displayed that she thinks he's a great boyfriend, despite his dilemma in the mini-episode, "Movie Time!"

### Chris:

Anne seems to enjoy joking around Chris, and it's unclear if she hates him or not, like most of the others do. It's possible that she just simply enjoys bothering him with her jokes and puns.

### Luna:

Anne has shown a dislike in Luna's snobby attitude, comparing it to trash in "Space Monkey, that Funky Monkey." The two actively avoid speaking to each other. She refers to her as the "mousey girl."

### Dusty:

Anne is a supportive friend to Dusty, helping to cheer her up when she was upset about Flint being gone in "Interplanetary Security."

### Crustacean:

Anne originally was excited to see that Crustacean was warming up to her team early in the competition, but upon hearing her rude words in "I Spy," she gained some dislike for the girl.

### Chef:

Anne is shown to be slightly afraid of Chef, considering their interaction in "An Anne-tastic Game of Capture the Flag," though she is still willing to mess with him, as seen in the intro when she causes a popcorn explosion in the kitchen, though somehow Flint gets blamed for this.
