YMMV / Total Drama: "Haulin' n' Ballin'"

• Accidental Aesop: Julia asks a question of what's worse: pretending to like someone to achieve your goal or telling on someone who was pretending to fall for someone to achieve their own goals; and concludes we're about to find out. Since Zee was eliminated over Caleb, the episode ends up teaching that the latter is worse. Though the next episode has Damien say that Zee did the right thing and shows that Caleb has become Hated by All.
• Alternative Character Interpretation:
  • After Zee reveals how Caleb was initially using Priya to advance in the game, he wastes no time spilling other secrets he found out. Is Zee just being his usual oblivious self? Or is he subconsciously so guilty over revealing Caleb's secret that he decides to reveal the other secrets in order to get himself voted off out of shame?
  • When Zee spills the other secrets at first, Julia's understandably angry, but once he turns to MK, she looks worried. Is she feeling upset because her partner/friend is being targeted, or is she mostly guilty for driving Zee up to this point, as she only wanted to learn Caleb's secret? Her happy reaction to Zee's elimination and her giving him the cold shoulder at the elimination ceremony when he tries to sit near her implies the former.
• Ass Pull: After revealing Caleb's secret, Zee ends up revealing other secrets he found relating to Julia, Raj, Damien, MK, and even Chef and Chris. Even if Zee somehow found out about the other campers' secrets offscreen, it's unclear how he would've found out secrets regarding the host and co-host, since they never interact with the campers of outside of challenges.
• Fridge Horror: As Priya mentioned herself, she dropped her toothbrush on the floor of the outhouse in a Mic Drop gesture. Unless she has a spare, her only options now would be to: clean it REALLY thoroughly and risk continuing using it, never wash her teeth again for the rest of the season, or borrow someone else's; none of which are particularly pleasing.
• Memetic Mutation: Julia's line: "His pants are gone. Now he'll have to tell me!" for how inappropriate it sounds without context.
• Squick: Two of the secrets Zee reveals include Raj liking to smell other players' sports bags and Damien not having changed his underwear since the season began.
