Animals for a Week

**Animals for a Week** is part 1 of episode 13 of Season 3 of Super Mario x Total Drama: Drama Kingdom. Part 2 is When There's a Yummy Fruit, There's a Yoshi.

## Summary

The Total Drama Pahkitew Island gang become animals for a week due to a mysterious force that was eventually revealed by Kamek.

## Plot

The episode starts with a shot of Drama Town, which cuts to a shot of Shawn's house, which cuts to Shawn freaking out. He then frantically greets the viewers and tells them that he just transformed into an aardvark. Shawn soon hears knocking on the door and goes to open it. Upon opening the door, Shawn sees Sky and notices that she's a peregrine falcon. Shawn, surprised, asks Sky "Sky, how the heck did you transform into a peregrine falcon?!" and starts probing her to see if she didn't use a machine or potion or got bitten by a magic bug to transform.

As Shawn probs, Sky giggles and squirms, telling Shawn to be gentle and alerting him that she's very ticklish. After Shawn finishes probing Sky, he points out that she didn't use a machine or a potion or get bitten by a magic bug to transform into a peregrine falcon and Sky, still giggling from the probing, responds by saying "Yeah!" within her giggles. Sky, after brushing herself, asks Shawn why he's an aardvark and Shawn answers "I have no idea!".

Just then, Jasmine, as a kangaroo, appears and picks Shawn up. Shawn tries to get out of Jasmine's grasp but Jasmine tells him "You're safe now, my Joey!" and hugs him. In order to break out of the hug, Shawn pulls out a feather from his pocket and tickles Jasmine's neck with it. Jasmine bursts into laughter and lets go of Shawn. The tall Australian Outback girl then looks down, notices Shawn and apologizes for thinking that he's her Joey, to which Shawn forgives her.

Soon after, Dave, as an aardwolf, appears and pounces on Shawn. Dave then sniffs all over Shawn's upper body and Shawn starts laughing because the sniffing tickles. Shawn pushes Dave to the ground to make him stop sniffing him and Dave lands on his belly. Dave gets up on his all fours and says to Shawn "Oops! My bad, Shawn!". Shawn tells Dave that he "kinda" pushed him to make him stop ticklishly sniffing him and Dave apologizes, to which Shawn forgives him and says that many dogs and canines sniff him ticklishly.
