Stereotypes everywhere

The fun part is that they are all stereotypes, or at least start off that way. You sort of get a sense of their personalities as the series goes.

The cartoon medium really lets them get creative with the challenges. 1000 foot drop plus sharks? Couldn't do that in normal TV.

No lawyers in this world, apparently XD

Other than the ones that make lots of copies.

Clearly this show is the only organization that has them anymore. I'll be spending the rest of the season figuring out what happened.

Remember this comment. Remember it.

I think Ezekiel has got this season in the bag.

TOO SOON

Reading A History of Canada to them?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa6Kv1fOStM

Ezekiel is just... I dun even. I think part of it was from a inside joke with my sisters about replacing his face with Nigel. Like, you just insert him into the background for all the episodes with Nigel's face and that hat and he lasts until the Final 2 somehow. In my mind, he's the show's Derpy.

Noah probably had one of the best elimination lines, as well as the Fight Club joke. Too bad he was lazy as heck.

I actually haven't read Fight Club.

Me neither.

I think I'm finally starting to learn everyone's names . I'm also kind of glad that they didn't get rid of Heather. She makes everything much more interesting.

I also mentioned that Cody was one of my favorites here.

Duncan just does not give a shit about, like, anything. My sisters have a theory known as the Conservation of Duncan Shits. Duncan Shits cannot be created or destroyed.

Duncan is the honey badger . I like him too.

Duncan's fear [of music store standees] is clearly the most realistic.

Can't really argue with that.

Those snakes

Snakes dun have eyelids. THEY CAN'T BLINK.

It's clearly some kind of genetically engineered mutant breed made by the show. It might have something to do with the eradication of all the other lawyers in the world. I'm going to have to write a fanfic about this someday.

Totes ship Duncan/Courtney.

I actually kind of like the idea of that ship.

They have REMOTE CONTROLLED CLOUDS???? This is going in the fanfic too

I read a WMG page on TV Tropes that suggested that the campers all have superpowers, and the show is intended to activate them for some secret government project or something. For example, Cody has regeneration from injuries.

And all the chicken puns... It's like the YouTube comments of a Scootaloo video or a Skype conversation involving Key Gear. I've never heard so many.

Believe me, I can tell WAY more puns when I'm motivated. Way more.

Well, I'm not so bird-brained as to try to get into a pun duel I can't win. Besides, some people say that chicks aren't as good at puns. I bill that to be a rather silly sentiment, but...

Too... good...

Cody's in good form this episode. I don't know if he'll make it though the canoe ride in one piece, but...

They could've made him annoying, but he's actually one of the nicest characters in the whole show. He's also a perv. Yay for character depth!

Huzzah . Bread from pants saves the day, as always.

Cody also has hammerspace in his pants apparently.

Bet that's handy. In other news, Geoff is my new inspiration.

Geoff is the source of all relationship advice.

BETH WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

Their fate will be the same as the lawyers. They will be softly and silently vanished away.

Always quote The Hunting of the Snark when possible.

DJ is the new Key Gear. He's getting way into his role

DJ is a winrar at lif.

Also, lol Cody confessionals. You just know that this won't end well for the official Contestant With Worst Luck Ever.

Beth is awesome

Told ya' that it was a great episode.

Duncan deer, DJ deer, Owen actually being pretty entertaining , Badass Beth, you were right

Hector and Courtney being great again

HOW DO I KEEP DOING THAT?????????????

For a while, DF constantly confused Duncan for this random character in something else named Hector.

"Wanna make out?" has basically become another one of our household memes.

I think I'll adopt it

Cody's gone???? :( :(

NOW EVERY TIME I SEE HIM IN THE OPENING

I DIE A LITTLE INSIDE

ALL HE DID WAS BE NICE AND GET MAULED BY A BEAR

Hope those healing powers let him breathe underwater

I think I've got most everyone's names down by now. EXCEPT FRIGGEN DUNCAN CAUSE MY BRAIN DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE

YOU MEAN HECTOR RIGHT??????

NO I MEAN KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

Napoleo... I mean Harold is not having a good day.

It's okay, Harold is totally Napoleon Dynamite.

"Owen, guard the food." What.

GENIUSH PLAN.

I think it's that Tiki idol from Bony Island. It's like a portable Idiot Ball.

Why did they have to get rid of Beth just when she was becoming amazing?

I don't think you like Heather so much now, do ya?

Not a whole lot, no.

It occurs to me that it's really lucky that Lindsay changed her mind on what her worst fear [originally minefields, then bad haircuts] was a few episodes ago.

Cody should've pretended that his worst fear was kissing Gwen

If only he could see the future instead of healing himself

Hector/Duncan really DOESN'T care

Conservation of Duncan Shits, DashForever. Conservation of Duncan Shits.

Chris has found the perfect job for himself. Only here can he unleash his jackassery to the fullest and have no repercussions whatsoever.

Gotta love Chris and his mass douchebaggery.

Chef in a nurse costume. It cannot be unseen.

I just learned all about the food chain. Poor Geoff.

And poor Bunneh!

BUT THEN DUNCAN

Duncan is best... whatever Duncan is.

Duncan is best Duncan.

My Little Duncan: Every Duncan is Duncan

Magikarp evolves into Duncan

His full name is Duncan Duncan Hector Duncan

If you're on a reality show with everything you do being aired on national TV, you're probably not going to be successful at running for office.

Courtney has an attorney :o? She's been concealing one since the beginning of the purge! She's the only hope for a brighter future! This fanfic just keeps getting better and better

HAROLD YOU'RE GREAT AND ALL BUT WHY U STOP DUNCNEY JUST WHEN IT WAS GETTING GOOD.

He's freaking evil

Chris should never be given a pilot's license

Chris should never be given a license for anything, but the only lawyers left in the world are too busy working for Courtney.

This is starting to sound more and more Hunger Games-ish with the post-apocalyptic interpretation of the show's universe.

Just give Hector/Duncan a paintball gun, light him on fire and we'll have ourselves a show

Battle of the sexes? This'll be good.

And then you realize that Killer Bass only had 1 girl left anyways.

HOLY CRAP TRENT'S DAD'S A LAWYER. THE PLOT THICKENS

IT'S THE LAWYER RESISTANCE FORCE

So if all the lawyers are supposed to be extinct or working for the show, and an improbably high number of the cast has connections to them... I've got it. They rounded up people with suspected connections to surviving attorneys and are trying to use the stressful circumstances and challenges to reveal those connections. Trent may never see his father again :(

Wait, but why would people like DUNCAN have friends in the law? And why would Ezekiel need a lawyer?

Ezekiel was cleared of suspicion and was allowed to go home early. Duncan is secretly in law school and conducting some of the best espionage of all time. He hopes to get his degree and use it to get Chris thrown in prison. You'd never suspect it, is the thing. He doesn't look like the lawyerly type at all. That's why he's the perfect attorney in this dystopian society.

Chris realized that there was a spy amongst the campers, so he sent a bear to follow their trail (dogs are too boring). Unfortunately, Cody's chips confused the bear and it mauled the wrong guy. That's why there wasn't a boat to pick Cody up; Chris thought he captured the mole and left him to die.

He didn't count on Cody's regenerative powers, though. Now he is hiding somewhere on the island, ironically part of Duncan's resistance force. This force previously contained Courtney, but Chris recruited Harold to switch the votes, this time correctly assuming that Courtney had connections in law.

ALL CANON.

The series is still ongoing right? So there's still an infinitesimal chance of this being the actual plot of the show. It'll be the biggest plot twist in the history of cartoons. And we'll be the only ones to have seen it coming

PLOT TWIST THE ENTIRE SERIES IS SET IN POST APOCALYPTIC CANADA

Chris is the depraved child of a military leader who is trying to establish a fascist state where there is no legal representation for anybody. He is using his family's fortune to create this show that almost nobody watches, and he is able to torment people with potential lawyer connections to his heart's content.

Alternatively, he is doing an eugenics program where the top contestants of his sick "game" will be his army on his quest to take over Canada. THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

To be honest, I'm having almost as much fun putting this conspiracy theory thing together as I am watching the show

Oh, also, like, the actual show and stuff. Predictions for the winner this season?

Going with Duncan or Bridgette, I guess.

If this is part of a eugenics plot to form an elite army, Owen would probably be gone by now . UNLESS THAT'S CHRIS' PLAN TO THROW YOU OFF THE TRAIL! He's a genius. He makes Amon look downright stupid in comparison.

Xanatos and Slade have nothing on this guy.

Absolutely nothing. That smile of unparalleled jackassery conceals a mind far beyond any that we can imagine.

Chris is really outdoing himself on the trolling front.

If the fans had their way, they'd bring back Cody and Noah.

Fun fact: The idea that Noah is gay has roughly the same popularity in the fandom as the idea that Lyra is human-obsessed.

DJ handled the snake remarkably well. Especially considering his phobia and all.

LOL CONTINUITY LOL?

Izzy needs help. Like, a lot of it.

I always got the impression from Izzy that she treats life like one massive, hilarious joke to herself.

PIRATE CHRIS?

BRING THEM BACK BY 6 PM EASTERN STANDARD TIME. ARRRR!

Saying intimate and private things in confessionals after Chris reveals he's willing to air them? Ingenious.

LINE CROSSED. HEATHER TOOK THE LINE AND PLAYED JUMPROPE WITH IT.

AND NOW HER MANIPULATION TACTICS

SHALL CHANGE THE LINE-UP

Lindsay and Heather have the healthiest friendship ever.

That line implies that Duncan has seen at least one chick flick in his life. Blackmail material, go.

My Little Heather: Friendship is Magic

Lindsay may be gearing up for a Beth moment. That'd be cool.

Poor Bridgette :( :(

Didn't you predict that Bridgette would win the season earlier?

Heather's making it to the final two, I have almost enough confidence to put money on it. Owen and DJ... Nah. Leshawna will get taken down by one of Heather's tricks later I think. My current bet is Gwen.

Duncan reminded me of my teachers during the last weeks of school.

That's a scary yet awesome teacher.

Oh, Lindsay and Heather being BFFs again.

I like how Heather has to advise Lindsay on how to use a bike that LINDSAY designed.

HEATHER VIOLATED A PINKIE SWEAR. THERE IS NOTHING SACRED :(

HOLY **** HERE IT COMES

Whatever she said just made Duncan's eyes go wide. Dang. Lindsay is amazing now.

The best part is that I can do a near-spot-on Lindsay impression, so I can voice what she was probably saying behind the censor bleeps.

No I'm not posting that on youtube for you guys

It's kinda sad that Lindsay's gone. Now who is supposed to call Heather a *************?

Incidentally, this show is so much better if you have an aunt Heather.

WTF I DO TOO. Weirdness...

Gwen's pretty genre savvy. She might make it out alive.

And the PSYCHO KILLER WITH A HOOK makes a reappearance! Seriously, does Duncan just keep that around on standby in case he needs to troll somebody?

This is not DJ's episode.

LET'S GO OFF INTO THE WOODS

SOZIN LOGIC STYLE

Sozin logic is an inside joke from A:TLA. Basically, it's any sort of terrible logic.

HELLZ YEAH. LEAVE THE FLAMING STICKS BEHIND TOO. WEAPONS ARE OVERRATED.

UNLESS THEY'RE LIFEJACKETS

MEANWHILE WE SHOULD ALL GO AND TALK ABOUT HOW THE KILLER COULDN'T GET US

Guess this really wasn't DJ's episode.

Heather vs. a bear? I'm fine with this.

It's like the reverse Cody.

I think I spy a duck/roadrunner hybrid that was genetically engineered by Chris's father's evil scientists. They're probably crucial to the creation of his totalitarian regime.

Duncan captures racoons with chainsaws because... well, he's Duncan.

BUT WHAT IF IT WAS A CHAINSAW

AND A HOOK

Duncan can't be a serial killer! He was the chosen one! He was supposed to imprison the criminals not join them! Bring law to the world, not leave it in chaos!

NONONONONONO, He's not a serial killer. The serial killer is a Duncan rip-off.

WHO RIPS OFF YOUR FACE.

I don't think I even need to be a conspiracy theorist to tie those raccoons into my headcanon thingy.

Also, that horse that Izzy is hunting is SO TWILIGHT SPARKLE. SHE HAS A FREAKING CUTIE MARK.

When my sisters and I watched this episode, we basically all concluded that Duncan only wants to help Heather so that he can get ALL the ladies in this game.

Duncan is amazing. He is my new role model.

Well, other than the part where he bullies Harold. That's not so cool.

He is not perfect. He is something better. He is Duncan.

Donutcoptor is new ROFLcoptor.

Owen has even trippier dreams than the ones I remember.

Duncan/Leshawna friendshipping is amazing.

Duncan/Anyone friendshipping is amazing.

Also, the "Woohoo!" thing was REALLY awkward to anybody who has played The Sims

This episode is so great. Once you see the premise, you'll understand why.

Ooh, you're right.

DUNCAN'S FATHER MENTIONED A LAWYER. THIS CONFIRMS EVERYTHING.

HOLY COW HOLY COW HOLY COW

THEY ARE WARNING HIM ABOUT HIS FAILURE IN HIS UNDERCOVER MISSION

THEY ARE MASTER SPAIS WITH OVERLY HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR THEIR SON

Look forward to seeing some of these guys again.

You know that 5 star resort they were SUPPOSED to go to instead of the camp? Well...

Chris: Trolololololo

Courtney has become the White Witch! She's threatening people with a lamppost SHE'S FILING A LAWSUIT TOO. IT BEGINS.

IT ALL BEGINNSSSS

Lindsay is an inspiration to us all. I mean, not as much as Duncan, but...

And Izzy looks to be a firm Cody/Noah shipper.

Heather's popular here.

WTF Ezekiel?

AND THIS IS WHY EZEKIEL IS THE ETERNAL MEME

I don't even know . Cody's a good kid.

I like how Katie says "irregardless" to piss Noah off.

Leshawna will now be referred to as "She Who Must Not Be Named"

That had to be the most WTFy elimination in the show.

Looks like they teleported the island to Oregon for the episode

I like how they let Duncan carry a knife and a lighter around on the island.

Not sure if Bigassic Park is a dinosaur movie or a really dirty movie.

Duncan: "Lololo I have no idea where that arrow went"

MASTER ARCHER

Still an inspiration to us all.

By this point, Chef/Chris is basically canon.

It so totally is.

I'd love to see their faces when a boat drops a coconut off on their resort island.

Still makes more sense than Leshawna's elimination.

Actually not. Mr. Coconut didn't even make it to the boat

Neither did Cody...

THIS IS GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO SHIP THEM TOGETHER.

CODYNUT OTP

Chef should always do the recap.

I was about to freak out about Duncan mentioning lawyers, but then I realized that the network having them isn't supposed to be a surprise

Wait, I have a better idea: Ezekiel should always do the recap.

Ezekiel's beanie should do the recap. It'd be captivating.

Plus Nigel face, of course.

It's mandatory

*Eva BEATS UP Sasquatchanakwa*

"I dun think it's real"

*lol logic?*

I'm just impressed that you're able to spell that

Me? Spell that? Oh hell no, I just looked it up.

I love the Xanatos Pileup in this episode.

It's like mini Death Note. Heather's thoroughness in going above and beyond the call of duty in searching Duncan's pants was admirable.

And so NEITHER of your predicted winners (Bridgette or Duncan) get into the final 3.

Gwen has the best plans for what to do if she wins.

I dunno, Heather's [A TV show called The World According To Heather] sounds like the Rainbow Dash show to me, and that'd be funny.

"Thankfully Gwen has no strengths! That's why she kept winning challenges for her team."

Chris is channeling your puns. Cody's dare was cold, man.

It was a pretty ice idea though, amiright?

At least 20% cooler than the other dares so far.

Okay, there's snow way I can top that pun.

You will now face the winter of my discontent.

Geoff's dare HAD to be inspired by his key-hunting exercise.

I want to know more about that sock puppet challenge. The flaw in their plan is that Heather is determined as hell.

HEATHER HAS FREAKING LAWYERS. SHE CRACKED.

THEY FINALLY GOT HER TO REVEAL HER LAWYERS. SHE BROKE UNDER THE PRESSURE

Gwen listing Cody as sane makes me happeh.

Gwen is appealing to my unhealthy levels of pessimism.

Also, wtf Eva is a Gwen fan?

Memo to self: never intern for a reality show.

The interns were all people who objected to Chris's lawyer schemes, obviously.

Found guilty of aiding and abetting attorneys.

Chris getting thrown in the water is an ending that we can all bond over.

Looks like Courtney's lawyer lost her lawsuit. By default. Because he was never seen again after the first day in court.

I think that Courtney's unfair elimination was REALLY bad for her psyche. She already has a tendency towards being self righteous that was finally getting fixed during her elimination episode, but then Harold had to go and undo her character development. Le sigh.

Good point there. She was really making some progress, but then she had an excuse to make herself into the victim of circumstance who would've totally wrecked everybody if not for outside meddling. Still, Duncan might have a chance to keep working at it.

Is it just me, or is Noah way better out of this game than in it?

Meanwhile, Sadie and Katie have become masters in the art of TMI.

I find Justin's appearance more creepy than anything. Those lips... THOSE EYES. Those eyes give me nightmares.

Harold and Heather is clearly the most fulfilling and useful alliance in the season.

Something about those two just had teamwork written all over it.

Noah screaming like a little girl is just wuuuuuut

(And Lindsay is way more of an anti-Noah than Justin is.)

Noah's being great. I can't believe we missed out on having him around all season. Justin seems to have wised up on how to exploit his looks better . He's too dangerous.

That's the thing. Noah and Justin share the traits of being rather conniving (even if Noah never got a chance to use it) and using natural talents (intelligence and good looks respectively) to their advantage rather than hard work.

Lindsay, on the other hand, is not lazy at all but is dumb as a box of rocks. She tends to think the best of people and has a cheerful outlook. Noah obviously does not. Much more of foils to each other than Noah and Justin.

AND THEN THE WRITERS DON'T USE THIS FACT.

DAMMIT.

That's too bad. I know I probably don't appreciate foils as much as you do, but they always make a series better. My favorite character in Game of Thrones is a foil to two of the other best characters at the same time. I was drooling when I figured that out.

Wow, we are such literature nerds.

AND DUNCAN IS A SHADOW ARCHETYPE TO COURTNEY.

A HURR DURR DURR.

It's what makes us so cool. That's what I tell myself when I'm typing fat essays about colorful ponies.

I am FAIRLY convinced that both Noah and DJ are bronies.

I could kind of see that actually.

And of course Duncan. His favorite is presumably Fluttershy.

This needs to be canon. Like, right now.

ISN'T IT OBVIOUS

DJ IS FLUTTERSHY

BUNNY IS ANGEL

DUH
