History FanFic / ACodetteWorldTour

-->'''Courtney:''' Cody?... well, well, well. Who would have thought? Bridgette... I hope you realize what a good that is you're hugging before it's too late. If not... I just might have to take him for myself.

-->'''DJ:'''So long! I know you guy will be great!\\

'''DJ:''' ''(winks)'' Oh, I wasn't talking about the game.

-->'''Noah:''' First Gwen. Now Bridgette.... I've got to admire your [Cody's] taste in women.

* AdaptationalBadass: Team Victory as a whole. Infamous in canon for getting completely wiped out by Alejandro before the season's halfway point, this fic makes them much more successful in challenges and more difficult for Alejandro to annihilate, while having two canonical members reach the merge. Said two members, Bridgette and DJ, stand out especially, as DJ loses his status as TheLoad due to not being cursed this time while Bridgette is not the first girl eliminated for the second time in a row this time, allowing both to really show their skill in challenges and win first class more times than in canon.

** Blaineley doesn't appear at all, so her role as the unexpected new contestant debuting in the Niagara Falls challenge is given to Staci.

* ChekhovsGun: As the author himself explains, changing Gwen and Duncan's kiss to outright sex is meant to be this. [[spoiler:The more sexually active nature of their relationship results in Duncan breaking up with Gwen upon learning she's pregnant with his child.]]

* DreamSequence: In Chapter 7, Bridgette has one foreshadowing her learning of Alejandro's true self-centered nature and his roles in hurting and eliminating the other contestants, as well as her discovery of her feelings for the far kinder and friendlier Cody.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including not existing solely to be fodder, winning elimination rounds several times, and having two of its canonical members reach the merge. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro's charms but does not have her reputation damaged by it due to being newly single this time, while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his tougher and more easygoing Season 1 self.

** Cody's choice to go over the pyramid rather than under like in canon result in the team compositions being altered (Lindsay is on Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot, Izzy and Ezekiel are on Team Amazon, and Cody is on Team Victory), which combined with Bridgette's breakup with Geoff after ''Action'', snowball into a completely different series of events.

** Staci fills the same role as in canon by being as annoying as possible for both the readers and the other characters though her incessant blabbering of outrageous lies so no one will miss her when she's eliminated in the same chapter.

* HiddenDepths: Sierra despite being a ditz manages to sneak a laptop on board (twice), fool Chris, and win a challenge through simple deduction.

* IAteWhat: After Cody catches a cold in the Yukon, Sierra makes chicken soup for him...with her own hair as an ingredient. Everyone is incredibly disturbed when she reveals this.

** In Chapter 8, Cody screams at Sierra that he'll never love her back when she flips out over him hooking up with Bridgette...only to then realize to his horror that he's talking almost exactly like Gwen when she lost it at him in Chapter 4.

* KarmaHoudini: After all of the drama stirred by the love triangle, Duncan, like in canon, gets away scot-free, and it's Gwen and Courtney who suffer the consequences (although both gain redemption and happiness in the end).

* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Bridgette reflects how her past boyfriends were shallow, lustful, and always using her or trying to change her before finally realizing she's developed feelings for Cody.

* LoveMakesYouEvil: Gwen's feelings for and eventual relationship with Duncan cause her to become much meaner. [[spoiler:It takes Duncan getting her pregnant and then breaking up with her for it to revert to her old self.]]
* MisplacedWildlife: Unlike in canon, the usage of pandas in the Japan challenge is pointed out by Harold, and Chris is forced to change the challenge to have human partners (and punish one of his interns for getting the facts wrong) as a result.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Sierra realizes her mistake in the Niagara Falls challenge when she assumed that Bridgette kissed Cody just because the latter's face was full-on red from blushing.

** The exact details of Geoff and Bridgette's breakup between seasons are never addressed, but some of what Bridgette says implies that it was a deeply reluctant yet mutual decision due to neither feeling satisfied with the relationship after ''Action'' but still simultaneously missing the happy moments they had shared.

* SideBet: Noah bets with Cody that he (Cody) and Bridgette will hook up by the end of the season. Unfortunately, Alejandro overhears it and twists the conversation to make it sound like Cody bet with Noah that he could make Bridgette his girlfriend in order to drive a wedge between Cody and Bridgette.

** Alejandro still attempts to get Bridgette's tongue stuck on a pole in the Yukon by isolating and seducing her in order to get her eliminated. It doesn't work here though because Cody's interference causes ''Cody'' to get stuck to the pole instead, and it turns out to be a non-elimination round.

* TokenGoodTeammate: Owen is this when he and Heather become Alejandro's helpers in the finale. He takes little enthusiasm in having to go up against Bridgette and tries to stall Alejandro by being TheLoad.

* UnstoppableRage: Courtney falls into this after her initial grief over Duncan's affair with Gwen...that is until she finally breaks down during the China challenge.

* ConfessionTriggersConsummation: This seems be the case with the fic's version of Duncan and Gwen after the former's return in London, since their kiss is changed to sex in the story.

** Courtney gets a lot of focus during the China challenge of Chapter 6, as her emotions over Duncan cheating on her with Gwen reach their climax and the she gets eliminated afterwards.

** The implied breakup between Owen and Izzy is never explained in the slightest, as Izzy is now inexplicably attracted to Ezekiel. In fact, ''Ezekiel'' has more problems with than Owen does, as the former is initially very confused as to why Izzy is so affectionate with him while the latter never says anything about it.

* OutGambitted: Noah's attempt to expose Alejandro for who he is and get him eliminated is outmaneuvered when Alejandro helps Lindsay remember who Tyler is so that the two will vote with him for Noah.

* ChekhovsGun: As the author himself explains, changing Gwen and Duncan's kiss to outright sex is meant to be this. [[spoiler:The more sexual nature of their relationship results in Duncan breaking up with Gwen upon learning she's pregnant with his child.]]

** Alejandro's InvincibleVillain qualities are toned down too. While he is still a very competent and formidable player who manages to charm and manipulate many, he is involved in far less eliminations than in canon, there are moments where the players he manipulates become extremely suspicious of him (even the smitten Bridgette), and he is given some stronger flaws that almost get him eliminated a few times, such as a volatile temper.
** The highly divisive Duncan-Gwen-Courtney LoveTriangle, while still present in the form of Courtney's anguish and fury over the whole fiasco, does not take up as much of the story, due to Duncan getting eliminated once his affair with Gwen is ousted and Gwen quitting immediately afterwards to join him.

* AmicableExes: Geoff and Bridgette become this in the end. When Geoff expresses his remorse for what he did on ''Action'' and how he should have done more to show his love for her than just make out non-stop, Bridgette accepts his apology and is happy to see him back to his old self again.

** Tyler becomes the hero of the Africa challenge of Chapter 7, overcoming his usual clumsiness and saving Cody and Bridgette, only to be eliminated afterwards.
** Courtney gets a lot of focus during the China challenge of Chapter 6, as her emotions over Duncan cheating on her with Gwen reach their climax and she is eliminated afterwards.
** Sierra is the centre of attention in the Alberta challenge of Chapter 8, as she is forced to come to terms with Cody hooking up with Bridgette and gets eliminated afterwards.

* DreamSequence: In Chapter 7, Bridgette has one not-so-subtly hinting to her about Alejandro's true self-centered nature and cruel indifference to the other contestants (as well as his roles in eliminating them), as well as Cody's kindness and loyalty to the same people.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including not existing solely to be fodder, winning elimination rounds several times, and having two of its canonical members reach the merge. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro's charms but does not have her reputation damaged from cheating with him due to being newly single this time, while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his tougher and more easygoing Season 1 self.

** Sierra ultimately decides she is willing to let Bridgette date Cody despite her initial rage, but makes her promise to treat Cody with utmost respect and unconditional love as she would have.

* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHim: Sierra wants to be sure Cody is in good hands in his relationship with Bridgette, so she tells Bridgette in no uncertain terms that she (Sierra) will not stand for any mistreatment of him.

** Noah also seems to be on deck, judging by the way he teases Cody about Bridgette and his bet with him that the two would become a couple by the end of the season.

* TrueLovesKiss: What Ezekiel does to wake Izzy from her coma.

** Team Victory lasts much longer than they did in the canon ''World Tour'' and plays a bigger role than mere fodder eliminations, with Bridgette and DJ making it all the way to the merge [[spoiler:(and the former wins the season)]].
** Ezekiel, Lindsay, and Tyler also last much longer and have a more successful time than they do in canon, although only Tyler makes it to the merge.

* BabiesEverAfter: The epilogue has [[spoiler:Cody and Bridgette becoming the proud new parents of a beautiful baby girl, with Leshawna, DJ, Owen, and Gwen joining to congratulate them. Also Izzy and Ezekiel are mentioned to now be the parents of ''nine'' kids.]]

** Never say or call Alejandro José or he will snap at you. But that's nothing compared to [[VillainousBreakdown what will happen]] if you call him Al multiple times in a row.
* BetaCouple: Izzy and Ezekiel have their own romantic subplot in the first half of the story, and they have a much easier time hooking up than Cody and Bridgette do.

* BrokenTears: Happens to Courtney during the Great Wall marathon when her emotions over Duncan cheating on her with Gwen finally overwhelm her.

* ChivalrousPervert: The show seems to portray Cody as this, but Bridgette and Sierra see through it and get to know the sweet guy he is.

* DemotedToExtra: Due to Team Victory doing much better than in canon, their eliminations are instead given to players who were more successful in canon.
** Owen and Heather are hardest hit by this, going from mergers in canon (and a finalist in Heather's case) to being among the first eliminated in the competition. However, they do get to be Alejandro's helpers in the finale.
** Gwen, Duncan, and Noah are also eliminated earlier than in canon, but they are not as severely demoted as the aforementioned cases due to them possessing some significance to the story.

* EvilLaugh: Chris has one in the Niagara Falls challenge when Courtney points out there aren't enough partners to go around (3 girls to 4 guys), foreshadowing Staci's debut.

* GiveGeeksAChance: The entire point of the story is the development of a romance between the scrawny tech-savvy nerd Cody and the beautiful GranolaGirl surfer Bridgette.

* HateSink: Alejandro is meant to be this by WordOfGod. Similarly, Staci fills the same role as in canon, being as annoying as possible for both the readers and the other characters.

** In the finale, Geoff comes to accept Bridgette and Cody being together, admitting to Bridgette that he knows he messed up back in ''Action'' and while he can't ask her to come back, he wants to make it up to her by helping her win the season.

** In Chapter 7, after learning of his true nature, Bridgette pulls the same seductive tricks on Alejandro that he has been pulling on her the whole story in order to finally lash out at him and expose his true nature during the Easter Island challenge.

* NotHimself: Harold and Leshawna are both eliminated because of this, as Alejandro feeds their pride and causes them to become excessively arrogant and bossy in Japan and the Alps respectively.

* SheCleansUpNicely: Bridgette is already quite pretty, but in the Niagara Falls challenge, Cody is so smitten by how beautiful she looks in a wedding dress that it snaps him out of his HeroicBSOD and makes him realize his feelings for her. Likewise, Bridgette notices how handsome Cody looks in a tuxedo.

** Cody's tear-filled rant after being brutally rejected by Gwen near the end of Chapter 4 is scripted much like the tearful breakdown Will Smith had over his father leaving him again in ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir'' episode "Papa's Got A Brand New Excuse".

** [[WebVideo/BumReviews A homeless man named Chester A. Bum]] appears towards the end of the story. Introduced at the same time are two TD fans named Sebastian and Anita who clearly meant to be two of the OC contestants introduced in the ''Fanfic/TotalDramaComebackSeries''.

** A few small nods to the ''World Tour'' fanfic ''Fanfic/CandyForYourThoughts'' are present too. In Chapter 6, Courtney teases the possibility to taking Cody for herself if Bridgette doesn't realize her feelings for him, while in Chapter 10, the finalists and their helpers are still Cody, his new girlfriend, and her ex-boyfriend going up against the trio of Alejandro, Heather, and [[TokenGoodTeammate Owen]].

** Alejandro still attempts to get Bridgette's tongue stuck on a pole in the Yukon by seducing her in order to get her eliminated. It doesn't work here though because Cody's interference causes ''Cody'' to get stuck to the pole instead, and it turns out to be a non-elimination round.
** Duncan still quits the contest when in Egypt only to be forced to return to the game in London (although through totally different circumstances). Likewise, Tyler is still the one who sees Duncan cheating with Gwen and is forced by Alejandro to reveal it to everyone in Greece.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:After Duncan leaves Gwen]], his fate is left a mystery.

In this story, the spark in Bridgette and Geoff's relationship died out after their arguments on ''Total Drama Action''[='=]s Aftermath and the two break up between seasons. Then in''Total Drama World Tour'''s first challenge in Egypt, Cody chooses to go over the pyramid rather than through it like in canon. But a mishap caused by Bridgette's klutziness means that Cody ends up on Team Victory with her rather than on Team Amazon with Gwen as he hoped for. As she and Cody become good friends, the newly single Bridgette finds herself falling for Alejandro's charms, but Cody has his suspicions of the newcomer. And with Alejandro scheming his way through the game, can Cody stop him before it's too late and will Bridgette realize Alejandro is not the real man of her dreams?

** Similarly, Alejandro cared very little about Cody in canon and only started taking him seriously once the two were in the final four. Here, Alejandro considers Cody to be one of his most formidable enemies and makes it a high priority to get him eliminated quickly so he can then take Bridgette down without any opposition.
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Staci, a character who canonically first appears in ''Revenge of the Island'', is brought in as a special contestant during the Niagara Falls challenge. She lasts just as long as she did in canon.

* AdaptedOut: Blaineley doesn't appear at all, so her role in the Niagara Falls challenge is given to Staci.
* AlternateUniverseFic: In this story's universe, Bridgette and Geoff's relationship never recovered after Geoff started becoming a jerk in ''Action'', resulting in their breakup before ''World Tour''. The team rosters are also different due to [[ForWantOfANail a couple of small changes in the setup]], and many of the challenges go quite differently as a result (several parts to them are outright skipped and which rounds were elimination or non-elimination change as well).

* AscendedExtra: Team Victory lasts much longer than they did in the canon ''World Tour'', with Bridgette and DJ making it all the way to the merge [[spoiler:(and the former wins the season)]]. Ezekiel, Lindsay, and Tyler also last much longer and have a more successful time than they do in canon.

** Cody is stuck on a different team from his crush Gwen, vilified by Alejandro after his friend Noah is eliminated, loses his longtime crush to Duncan, witnesses Gwen turning into a jerk because of it, gets his heart shattered by Gwen finally snapping at him, and loses his new crush Bridgette to Alejandro's charms.

** Tyler becomes the hero of the Africa challenge of Chapter 7, overcoming his defining limitation (his klutziness) and saving Cody and Bridgette, only to be eliminated afterwards.

* DemotedToExtra: Due to Team Victory doing much better than in canon, their eliminations are instead given to players who were more successful in canon. Owen and Heather are hardest hit by this, going from mergers in canon (and a finalist in Heather's case) to being among the first eliminated in the competition. However, they do get to be Alejandro's helpers in the finale. Gwen, Duncan, and Noah are also eliminated earlier than in canon, but they are not as severely demoted as the aforementioned cases.

* DreamSequence: In Chapter 7, Bridgette has one not-so-subtly hinting to her about Alejandro's true self-centered nature and cruel indifference to the other contestants, as well as Cody's kindness and loyalty to the same people.

** Ezekiel is not eliminated first again and makes it decently far this time. As a result, he never goes feral and even gets a girlfriend out of the deal in the form of Izzy. Similarly, Tyler makes it all the way to the merge rather than getting eliminated halfway through to make room for Duncan's return.
** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro but remains in-character due to being newly single this time while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his easygoing Season 1 self.

* HateSink: Alejandro is meant to be this by WordOfGod.

* HeroicBSOD: Cody becomes extremely depressed and miserable for several days after having his heart broken by Gwen screaming at him to stop hitting on her and then quitting the game with Duncan.

** While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the merge, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early (and in the same places), thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members for the rest of the story. Similarly, Sierra, Courtney, and Izzy are still eliminated in the same locations they were in canon, and [[spoiler:Cody still comes in third place.]]

* IronicEcho: In Chapter 8, Cody screams at Sierra that he'll never love her back when she flips out over him hooking up with Bridgette...only to then realize to his horror that he's talking almost exactly like Gwen when she lost it at him in Chapter 4.

** There are some quick throwaway gags of ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic'' and Stewie from ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' reacting to the characters making certain jokes taken from their respective series.

** Ted the Tiger is basically meant to be Ed from ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' as a tiger.

* TeamPet: Ted the Tiger fills this role for the contestants and Chef.

** Alejandro's vendetta against Bridgette is also worth mentioning. In canon, he targeted her purely for the sake of getting further in the competition and was otherwise merely indifferent to her. Here, his failure to eliminate Bridgette in the Yukon makes him increasingly hateful of her (like calling her a shallow bimbo) and her successes, culminating in his actions mentioned above.

In this story, Bridgette and Geoff never reconciled after their arguments on ''Total Drama Action''[='=]s Aftermath and break up between seasons. Then in''Total Drama World Tour'''s first challenge in Egypt, Cody chooses to go over the pyramid rather than through it like in canon. But a mishap caused by Bridgette's klutziness means that Cody ends up on Team Victory with her rather than on Team Amazon with Gwen as he hoped for. As she and Cody become good friends, the newly single Bridgette finds herself falling for Alejandro's charms, but Cody has his suspicions of the newcomer.

The team rosters are also different due to [[ForWantOfANail a couple of small changes in the setup]], and many of the challenges go quite differently as a result (several are outright skipped and which rounds were elimination or non-elimination change as well).

** Bridgette loses her canonical boyfriend Geoff (and it's hinted it was painful for both), is horrified with herself when she learns of her misplaced anger towards Cody (when Alejandro twists a conversation Cody had with Noah), falls for Alejandro only to learn that he has hurt everyone she cares about and sees her only as a dumb slut to be manipulated, and sees her friend Gwen turn into a jerk as a result of dating Duncan.
* BreakTheHaughty: Courtney loses her best friend and boyfriend when they cheat behind her back and then gets slugged by them when she finds out, all while on TV.

* ADeathInTheLimelight: [[spoiler:Tyler]] becomes the hero of the Africa challenge, overcoming his defining limitation and saving Cody and Bridgette, only to be eliminated afterwards.

** Cody's choice to go over the pyramid rather than under like in canon result in the team compositions being altered (Lindsay ends up on Team CIRRRRH, Izzy and Ezekiel are on Team Amazon, and Cody is on Team Victory), which combined with Bridgette's breakup with Geoff after ''Action'', snowball into a completely different series of events.

* HeroicBSOD: Cody goes through one after having his heart broken by Gwen.

* HonoraryUncle: [[spoiler:Bridgette, Leshawna, Cody, Owen, and DJ become honorary aunts and uncles for Gwen's son]] in the epilogue as her way of thanking them for supporting her when Duncan failed to.

** Despite the different team compositions, Team Chris is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot keeps its name. This stands out because in canon, Sierra was originally assigned to that team and came up with its name, but then switched over to Team Amazon so she could be with Cody. Here however, Cody is on Team Victory and Sierra is on Team Amazon from the start, so Team CIRRRRH's name is never justified in the story.

* SacrificialLion: Noah is eliminated earlier than in canon, but his failed attempt to oust Alejandro early ends up having a major impact on the friendship between Cody and Bridgette, strengthening Alejandro's position in the game, and cementing how dangerous of a competitor he really is.

** Sierra still destroys the plane by accident when she bakes a cake for Cody's birthday, leading Chris to automatically disqualify her from the contest, despite winning immunity.

** Cody is stuck on a different team from his crush Gwen, vilified by Alejandro after his friend Noah is eliminated, loses his longtime crush to Duncan, gets his heart shattered by Gwen finally snapping at him, and loses his new crush Bridgette to Alejandro's charms.
** Bridgette loses her canonical boyfriend Geoff, is horrified with herself when she learns of her misplaced anger towards Cody (when Alejandro twists a conversation Cody had with Noah), falls for Alejandro only to learn that he has hurt everyone she cares about and sees her only as a dumb slut to be manipulated, and sees her friend Gwen turn into a jerk as a result of dating Duncan.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro but remains in-character despite that while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his Season 1 self.

** Courtney goes out with dignity this time, formally apologizing to everyone for her behaviour and admitting that it was her own fault that she lost.

* TokenGoodTeammate: Owen is this when he becomes Alejandro's helper alongside Heather in the finale. He takes little enthusiasm in having to go against Bridgette and tries to stall Alejandro by being TheLoad.

* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler:The epilogue has Cody and Bridgette becoming the proud new parents of a beautiful baby girl, with Leshawna, DJ, Owen, and Gwen joining to congratulate them. Also Izzy and Ezekiel are mentioned to now be the parents of ''nine'' kids.]]
** [[spoiler:Subverted with Gwen who becomes the teen mom of Duncan's illegitimate son. Duncan refuses to accept the responsibility of fatherhood and leaves the pregnant Gwen alone and miserable, but Gwen finds she still has her friends and family supporting her and the kid.]]

* HonoraryUncle: [[spoiler:Bridgette, Leshawna, Cody, Owen, and DJ become honorary aunts and uncles for Gwen's son in the epilogue as her way of thanking them for supporting her when Duncan failed to.]]

** [[spoiler:Alejandro's punishment at the end of the contest is to be sent off to star on ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether''.]]

* TeenPregnancy: [[spoiler:Gwen conceives Duncan's child at 17, causing the couple to break up when Duncan is told of this and abandons her, wanting nothing to do with the baby or parenthood.]]

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:After Duncan leaves Gwen, his fate is left a mystery.]]

* TheRunaway: Gwen and Duncan become this after the the former quits the show with the latter. [[spoiler:However, Gwen returns when they break up over he getting pregnant, but Duncan remains on the run.]]

In this story, Bridgette and Geoff never reconciled after their arguments on ''Total Drama Action''[='=]s ''Aftermath'' and break up between seasons.

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Gwen]] does some horrible things before leaving, but comes back and even helps [[spoiler:Bridgette win]]. Her redemption continues even into the epilogue, as she rebuilds and strengthens her friendships and reconciles with them and her own family for everything she did on TV.

** While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the merge, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early (and in the same places), thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members (Bridgette, DJ, and Cody) for the rest of the story. Similarly, Sierra, Courtney, and Izzy are still eliminated in the same locations they were in canon, and [[spoiler:Cody still comes in third place.]]

* TheRunaway: Gwen and Duncan become this after the the former quits the show with the latter. [[spoiler:At least until they break up.]]

* ShipperOnDeck: DJ is very much aware and supports Bridgette and Cody. Noah also seems to be on deck, judging by the way he teases Cody about Bridgette and his bet with him over the two becoming a couple.

** [[WebVideo/BumReviews A homeless man named Chester A. Bum]] appears towards the end of the story. Introduced at the same time are two TD fans named Sebastian and Anita who clearly meant to be two of the new OC contestants introduced in the ''Fanfic/TotalDramaComebackSeries''.

** Duncan still quits the contest when in Egypt only to be forced to return to the game in London (although through totally different circumstances). Likewise, Tyler is still the one who sees Duncan and Gwen getting intimate and is forced by Alejandro to reveal it to everyone in Greece.
** Sierra still destroys the plane by accident when she bakes a cake for Cody's birthday.

** Alejandro's vendetta against Bridgette is also worth mentioning. In canon, he targeted her for elimination in the Yukon purely for the sake of getting further in the competition and otherwise did not dislike her (even if he did feel she was expendable). Here, his failure to eliminate Bridgette in the Yukon makes him increasingly hateful of her (like calling her a shallow bimbo) and her successes, culminating in his actions mentioned above.
* AdaptedOut: Blaineley doesn't appear, so her role in the Niagara Falls challenge is given to Staci.

** The mere idea of Alejandro manipulating Bridgette makes Cody want to punch him.

* DreamSequence: In Chapter 7, Bridgette has one hinting to Alejandro's true self-centered nature and indifference to the other contestants' misfortunes and Cody's kindness and loyalty to the same people.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Chef cares about Ted the Tiger enough to get revenge on Chris when Chris uses Ted as catapult ammo during the Alberta challenge.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro but remains more in-character despite that while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his Season 1 self.

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Gwen]] does some horrible things before leaving, but comes back and even helps [[spoiler:Bridgette win]].

* LiteralCliffhanger: Done in the Africa challenge when Bridgette and Ted are left dangling from a cliff when a lion attacks them.

* SheCleansUpNicely: Bridgette is already quite pretty, but in the Niagara Falls challenge, Cody is so smitten by how beautiful she looks in a wedding dress that it snaps him out of his HeroicBSOD and makes him realize his feelings for Bridgette. Likewise, Bridgette notices how handsome Cody looks in a tuxedo.

** [[WebVideo/BumReviews A homeless man named Chester A. Bum]] appears towards the end of the story. Introduced at the same time are two TD fans named Sebastian and Anita who are based on [=OCs=] from the ''Fanfic/TotalDramaComebackSeries''.

* TokenGoodTeammate: Owen is this when he becomes Alejandro's helper alongside Heather in the finale. He takes little enthusiasm in having to go against Bridgette and tries to stall Alejandro by being TheLoad for him.

** Alejandro's vendetta against Bridgette is also worth mentioning. In canon, he targeted her for elimination in the Yukon purely for the sake of getting further in the competition and had no real malice towards her. Here, his failure to eliminate Bridgette in the Yukon makes him increasingly hateful of her (like calling her a shallow bimbo) and her successes, culminating in his actions mentioned above.

* ADeathInTheLimelight: Supporting character [[spoiler:Tyler]] becomes the hero of the Africa challenge, overcoming his defining limitation and saving the protagonists, only to be eliminated afterward.

* DreamSequence: In Chapter 7, Bridgette has one hinting to Alejandro's true self-centered nature and indifference to her fellow contestants' misfortunes and Cody's kindness and loyalty to the same people.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; the former still falls for Alejandro but remains more in-character despite such while the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs, allowing him to act more like his Season 1 self.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:After Duncan leaves Gwen, his fate is left a mystery]].

* AmicableExes: Geoff and Bridgette become this in the end. When Geoff expresses his remorse for what he did on ''Action'' and how he should have done more to show his love for her than just make-out non-stop, Bridgette accepts his apology and is happy to see him back to his old self again.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Chef does care about Ted to get revenge on Chris when Chris endangers Ted.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here; notably the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurs in the story.

** Alejandro's failure to eliminate Bridgette in the Yukon allows Team Victory to do much better than they did in canon and shuffles the elimination order quite significantly. Alejandro himself lampshades this in his confessionals, blaming his failure to destroy Team Victory on Bridgette staying in the game.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Even after Cody realizes that he likes Bridgette, he's willing (despite the pain) to let her be with Alejandro if that's who she wants. Sierra is willing to let Bridgette date Cody despite her initial rage, and Geoff likewise comes to accept Bridgette and Cody being together (Geoff even admits to Bridgette that he knows he messed up back in ''Action'' and while he can't ask her to come back, he wants to make it up to her by helping her win in the finale).

** While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the merge, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early (and in the same places), thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members for the rest of the story. Similarly, Sierra, Courtney, and Izzy are still eliminated in the same locations they were in canon, and [[spoiler:Cody still comes in third place.]]
** Despite the different team setups, Team Chris is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot keeps its name. This stands out because in canon, Sierra was originally assigned to that team and came up with its name, but then switched over to Team Amazon so she could be with Cody. Here however, Cody is on Team Victory and Sierra is on Team Amazon from the start, so Team CIRRRRH's name is never justified in the story.

** Alejandro's vendetta against Bridgette is also worth mentioning. In canon, he targeted her for elimination in the Yukon purely for the sake of getting further in the competition and had no real ill will towards her. Here, his failure to eliminate Bridgette in the Yukon makes him increasingly hateful of her (like calling her a shallow bimbo), culminating in his actions mentioned above.
* AdaptedOut: Blaineley doesn't appear, and her role in the Niagara Falls challenge is given to Staci.
* AlternateUniverseFic: In this story's universe, Bridgette and Geoff's relationship never recovered after Geoff started becoming a jerk in ''Action'', resulting in their breakup before ''World Tour''. The team rosters are also different due to [[ForWantOfANail a couple of small changes in the setup]], and many of the challenges go quite differently as a result (several are outright skipped and which rounds were elimination or non-elimination change as well).

* BewareTheNiceOnes: The normally calm and compassionate Bridgette is utterly furious at Alejandro and becomes determined to defeat him when she discovers Alejandro to be nothing more than a cruel and ruthless bastard who has hurt everyone she cares about and sees her as nothing more than a stupid harlot to be manipulated, all for the sake of winning.

** Bridgette loses her canonical boyfriend Geoff, is horrified with herself when she learns her misplaced anger towards Cody (when Alejandro twists a conversation Cody had with Noah), falls for Alejandro only to learn that he was manipulating her and sees her only as a dumb slut, and sees her friend Gwen turn into a jerk as a result of dating Duncan.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: Cody and Bridgette go through a lot of trials, tribulations, heartbreak, torment from Chris, and schemes from Alejandro to hook up happily ever after.

* FixFic: The author "fixes" a few of the plot points that made ''World Tour'' a ContestedSequel.

* ForWantOfANail: Cody's choice to go over the pyramid rather than under like in canon result in the team compositions being altered (Lindsay ends up on Team CIRRRRH, Izzy and Ezekiel are on Team Amazon, and Cody is on Team Victory), which combined with Bridgette's breakup with Geoff after ''Action'', snowball into a completely different series of events.

* GracefulLoser: Tyler takes his elimination quite well, declaring that he has no need for the prize money when he already has his girlfriend Lindsay and has proven himself a hero in the challenge of the day.

** While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the merge, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early (and in the same places), thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members for the rest of the story. Similarly, Sierra, Courtney, and Izzy are still eliminated in the same locations they were in canon.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Even after Cody realizes that he likes Bridgette, he's willing (despite the pain) to let her be with Alejandro if that's who she wants. Sierra is willing to let Bridgette date Cody despite her initial rage, and Geoff likewise comes to accept Bridgette and Cody being together (Geoff even admits to Bridgette that he knows he messed up back in ''Action'' and while he can't ask her to come back, he wants to make it up to her by helping her win in the finale).

* LoveTriangle: While the story starts with Cody and Bridgette pursuing Gwen and Alejandro respectively, it develops into this after Gwen shatters Cody's heart and Cody realizes his feelings for Bridgette.
* NiceGuy / NiceGirl : Bridgette being a Nice Girl is what made Cody eventually have feelings for her, and vice versa. It was what made Sierra (eventually) decide to let Bridgette date Cody. It was also what made Cody fangirl Anita accept Bridgette and Cody being together.
* SacrificialLion: Noah is eliminated earlier than in canon, but his failure to oust Alejandro early ends up having a major impact on the friendship between Cody and Bridgette, strengthening Alejandro's position in the game, and cementing how dangerous of a competitor he really is.

* ShipperOnDeck: DJ is very much aware and supports Bridgette and Cody. Noah also seems to be on deck, judging by the way he teases Cody about Bridgette.

** [[WebVideo/BumReviews A homeless man named Chester A. Bum]] appears towards the end of the story.

* TooDumbToLive: Lindsay votes herself off by accident, getting herself eliminated when Alejandro takes the gamble and votes for her as well.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After Duncan [[spoiler:leaves Gwen]], his fate is left a mystery.

''A Codette World Tour'' is a [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7356947/1/A-Codette-World-Tour fanfic]] made by TDI Charlie Brown based on ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour''. As the name suggests, it's a shipping story centered on Cody and Bridgette.

In this story, Bridgette and Geoff never reconciled after their arguments on ''Total Drama Action''[='=]s ''Aftermath'' and break up between seasons. After a mishap in Egypt caused by Bridgette's klutziness, Cody ends up on Team Victory (rather than Team Amazon like in canon) with Bridgette. And with Alejandro wooing Bridgette, can Cody save Bridgette before it's too late?

* AdaptationalVillainy: Alejandro remains the main antagonist, but his villainous actions grow darker as the contest progresses, such as molesting Bridgette so he could get to the final two and make Cody lose, as well as trying to kill her, Cody, and Geoff due to a VillainousBreakdown. You can say he's way worse than his canon self.

* DemotedToExtra: Due to Team Victory doing much better than in canon, their eliminations are instead given to players who were more successful in canon. Owen and Heather are hardest hit by this, going from mergers in canon (and season winner in Heather's case) to being among the first eliminated in the competition. However, they do get more screentime as Alejandro's helpers in the finale. Gwen, Duncan, and Noah are also eliminated earlier than in canon, but they are not as severely demoted as the aforementioned cases.

** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning non-elimination rounds (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here, with the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurring.
** The highly divisive Duncan-Gwen-Courtney LoveTriangle, while still present in the form of Courtney's anguish and fury over the whole fiasco, does not take up as much screentime, due to Duncan getting eliminated once his affair with Gwen is ousted and Gwen quitting immediately afterwards to join him.

* SacrificialLion: Noah is eliminated earlier than in canon, but his failure to oust Alejandro early ends up having a major impact on the friendship between Cody and Bridgette, end up strengthening Alejandro's position in the game, and cement how dangerous of a competitor he really is.

* SpannerInTheWorks: Sierra and her laptop end up derailing Alejandro's plans, as her access to all the ''Total Drama'' episodes allow Bridgette to realize her feelings for Cody and find out what Alejandro is really like when she decides to take a peek at the laptop out of curiosity.

** Alejandro still attempts to get Bridgette's tongue stuck on a pole in the Yukon by seducing her. It doesn't work here though because Cody's interference causes ''Cody'' to get stuck to the pole instead.
** Duncan still quits the contest when in Egypt only to be forced to return to the game in London. Likewise, Tyler is still the one who sees Duncan and Gwen getting intimate and blurt it out in Greece.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In canon, while Alejandro was the main antagonist in ''World Tour''. Here, his actions grow increasingly darker as the contest progresses, such as molesting Bridgette so he could get to the final two and make Cody lose, trying to kill her, Cody, and Geoff due to a VillainousBreakdown, etc. You can say he's way worse than his canon self.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: The normally calm and compassionate Bridgette is utterly furious at Alejandro and becomes determined to defeat him when she discovers Alejandro to be nothing more than a cruel and ruthless bastard who has hurt everyone she cares about and sees Bridgette as nothing more than a stupid harlot to be manipulated for the sake of winning.

* CharacterDevelopment: Through the fic, Bridgette and Cody become better friends first, they're still busy with their own love interests. They become closer friends with romantic hints but, they don't think much of it. Through the chapters they eventually became a couple.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The fic is rated T (a.k.a. PG-13) for a reason. While keeping with the zaniness of the canonical ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour'' season, the author upgrades Gwen and Duncan's kiss to sex [[spoiler:(which then gets Gwen pregnant, leading Duncan to abandon her)]] and puts Courtney through a complete breakdown over that betrayal by her boyfriend and best friend; Gwen's brutal rejection of Cody sends him into a serious depression; and there is also more violence and blood than in the original.

* DemotedToExtra: Due to Team Victory doing much better than in canon, their eliminations are instead given to players who were more successful in canon.
** Owen and Heather are hardest hit by this, going from mergers in canon (and season winner in Heather's case) to being among the first eliminated in the competition. However, they do get more screentime as Alejandro's helpers in the finale.
** Duncan and Gwen are an interesting case. Both are also eliminated earlier than in canon (with Duncan being eliminated almost immediately after he returns instead of reaching the merge), but their actions have a major impact on the story.
** {{Downplayed|Trope}} with Noah, who is eliminated only slightly earlier than in canon, but he still leaves a major impact as a result of his failure to eliminate Alejandro early.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Alejandro does show concern, [[DownplayedTrope however briefly]], when Sierra was hurt during the plane explosion.

* FixFic: The author "fixes" a few of the plot points that made ''World Tour''a ContestedSequel.
** Ezekiel is not eliminated first again and makes it quite far this time. As a result, he never goes feral and even gets a girlfriend out of the deal in the form of Izzy.
** Team Victory is treated much, much, ''much'' better than in canon, including actually winning challenges (or at least avoiding the elimination room) several times. Bridgette and DJ are the big examples here, with the latter's unpopular animal curse plot never occurring.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Even after Cody realizes that he likes Bridgette, he's willing (despite the pain) to let her be with another if that's who she wants. Sierra is willing to let Bridgette date Cody despite her initial rage, and Geoff likewise comes to accept Bridgette and Cody being together.

** There are some quick throwaway gags of ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic'' and Stewie from''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' reacting to certain jokes taken from their respective series.
** Cody performs the States and capitals song from ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' during the Niagara Falls challenge to pass Chef's quiz.
** After the plane leaves Jamaica, Chris treats the contestants to a special reward by showing them ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfKells'' to compensate for the plane's failure to reach the intended destination of Ireland.
** [[WebVideo/BumReviews A homeless man named Chester A. Bum]] appears towards the end of the story.
** Ted the Tiger is basically meant to be Ed from ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' as a tiger.

* SpannerInTheWorks: Sierra and her laptop derail Alejandro plans, as her access to all the ''Total Drama'' episodes allow Bridgette to realize her feelings for Cody and find out what Alejandro is up to when they decide to take a peek at her laptop out of curiosity.

** While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the finals, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early, thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members for the rest of the story. Similarly, Sierra, Courtney, and Izzy are still eliminated in the same locations they were in canon.
** Despite the new circumstances in which the teams were set up, Team Chris is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot keeps its name. This stands out because in canon, Sierra was originally assigned to that team and came up with the name, but then switched over to Team Amazon so she could be with Cody. Here however, Cody is on Team Victory and Sierra is on Team Amazon from the start, so Team CIRRRRH's name is never justified in the story.

** To ''Film/Piranha3D'', to the point that DJ tosses the movie out the door in the plane. And to drive the point home, it's listed as one of the eliminated campers.
** In chapter six, Chris tells Chef that no matter how much he hates his job at least he doesn't work on ''WesternAnimation/{{Skatoony}}''.
** ''Series/JerseyShore'' is considered a punishment, as Sierra threatens to force Alejandro to watch it multiple times.
** [[spoiler:Alejandro's punishment at the end of the series is to be sent off to star on ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether''.]]

* TookALevelInJerkass: Gwen, after she started dating Duncan. She does horrible things to her friends, which led to Cody's depression. [[spoiler:However, she redeems herself by helping Bridgette win the finale after Duncan ditches her when he gets her pregnant.]]

* AdaptationEarlyAppearance: Staci, a character who canonically first appears in ''Revenge of the Island'', is brought in as a special contestant during the Niagara Falls challenge. She lasts just as long as she did in canon.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In canon, while Alejandro was the main antagonist in ''World Tour'', here, his actions are very dark, such as molesting Bridgette so he could get to the final two and make Cody lose, trying to kill her, Cody, and Geoff due to him snapping, etc. You can say he's way worse than his canon self.
* AdaptedOut: Blaineley doesn't appear, and her role in the Niagara Falls challenge is given to Staci from ''Revenge of the Island''.
* AlternateUniverseFic: In this story's universe, Bridgette and Geoff's relationship never recovered after Geoff started becoming a jerk, resulting in their breakup before ''Total Drama World Tour''. The team rosters are also different due to [[ForWantOfANail a couple of small changes in the setup]], and many of the challenges go quite differently as a result.
* AscendedExtra: Team Victory lasts much longer than they did in the canon ''World Tour'', with Bridgette and DJ making it all the way to the merge [[spoiler:(while the former wins the season)]]. Ezekiel, Lindsay, and Tyler also last much longer and have a more successful time than they do in canon.

* BetaCouple: Izzy and Ezekiel have their own romantic subplot.

** Cody is stuck on a different team from his crush, vilified by Alejandro, loses his longtime crush, Gwen, to Duncan and gets his heart stomped on by Gwen on TV into the bargain, and loses his new crush, Bridgette, to Alejandro.
** Bridgette loses her canonical boyfriend, must come to terms with being in the wrong concerning her anger toward Cody, falls for Alejandro only to learn that he was manipulating her, and sees a close friend turn into a jerk.

* DemotedToExtra: Due to Team Victory doing much better than in canon, their eliminations are instead given to players who were more successful in canon. Noah, Duncan, Gwen, Owen, and Heather are all eliminated earlier than in canon, with the last two in particular having no role in the story (but they get more time as Alejandro's helpers in the finale).

* FixFic: The author "fixes" a few unpopular or divisive plot points: Ezekiel never goes feral and gets a girlfriend out of the deal; the Duncan-Gwen-Courtney LoveTriangle is downplayed; and Team Victory has a much better time, with DJ's animal curse never occurring.

* LiteralCliffhanger: Done in the Africa Challenge when Bridgette and Ted are left dangling from a cliff when a lion attacks them.

** Direct references are made to ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'', ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfKells'', ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic'', and ''WebVideo/BumReviews''.
** Cody's tear-filled rant after being brutally rejected by Gwen near the end of Chapter 4 is scripted much like the tearful breakdown [[Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir Will Smith]] had over his father leaving him again in "Papa's Got A Brand New Excuse."

* SpannerInTheWorks: Sierra and her laptop derail Alejandro plans, as her access to all the ''Total Drama'' clips allow Bridgette and Cody to realize their feelings for each other and find out what Alejandro is up to by simply going online.
* TheStationsOfTheCanon: While Team Victory is much more successful than in canon and has its members make it all the way to the finals, Harold and Leshawna are still eliminated very early thanks to Alejandro's machinations, leaving Team Victory with only three members for the rest of the story. Similarly, [[spoiler:Cody and Sierra are still come in third and fourth place as per canon.]]

* TookALevelInJerkass: Gwen, after she started dating Duncan. She does horrible things to her friends, which led to Cody's depression. [[spoiler:However, she redeems herself by helping Bridgette win the finale after Duncan breaks up with her when he gets her pregnant.]]
