Line #14 Recap/TotalDramaBrunchOfDisgustingness


1	The remaining campers are divided into teams of boys and girls for an eating contest.
2
3	!!Tropes:
4	* AbortedArc: Chris tells the final ten campers that the eliminated among them would form a jury to determine who wins the competition; however, the jury concept never gets brought up again in ''Island'' and wouldn't be used until the ''Action'' finale and even then it was only used due to a tie.
5	* AnchoviesAreAbhorrent: When Chris serves pizza with jellyfish, grasshoppers, and live anchovies, Lindsay claims she hates anchovies.
6	* BattleOfTheSexes: How Chris describes the episode.
7	* BlowingARaspberry: Once Chris announces that the last pre-merge challenge will see the teams shuffled to create a battle of the sexes, Duncan winks at Heather and Lindsay, which Lindsay answers by blowing a raspberry his way.
8	* {{Bowdlerise}}: In the American airing, the beef testicles are referred to as meatballs. The point still kinda gets across (for older viewers, anyway), because they didn't remove the shot of a bull cowering and whimpering in terror, Geoff's comment about bulls being castrated for medical reasons, or Gwen's line, "I'm digesting a bull's precious cohonies! You're gonna ''eat!''"
9	* BreatherEpisode: The first of only two episodes this season after the introductory episode not to feature an elimination.
10	* BurpingContest: Geoff is made captain of the boys team because he completely outdoes Owen with a tremendous burp.
11	* CreepyCockroach: To settle the tie and end the game once and for all, Owen and Leshawna are forced to drink the most shot glasses of blended cockroach. [[ExtremeOmnivore Owen wins]], but it’s clear that [[EveryoneHasStandards not even he enjoyed it.]] Leshawna kickstarts a VomitChainReaction.
12	* CulturalTranslation: Before the eating challenge starts, Owen declares, "I'll eat anything! Even my gitch if I have to!" The word "gitch" is Canadian slang for "underwear", and was changed to "drawers" in the American airing.
13	* ADayInTheLimelight: Bridgette is the focal character of this episode as she moves to the girls' cabin and has to deal with her bickering teammates.
14	* DidntThinkThisThrough: Heather overreacts to something Leshawna said and gives up playing nice to try to get Bridgette to side with her by dividing the cabin in two. She admits in the confessional that she probably overreacted.
15	* DoesNotLikeSpam: Trent ''really'' doesn't like broccoli.
16	* DudeWheresMyRespect: After both Bridgette and DJ refuse to eat the intended final meal, Chef laments the lack of appreciation for his hard work cooking dolphin.
17	* EasilyForgiven: After briefly arguing about Geoff helping Bridgette during the first round, the guys immediately make up and go back to working as a team without complaint. Given what she's been seeing on the girls team, Bridgette is stunned.
18	* EatingContest: Crossed with invoked NauseaFuel.
19	* EatingShoes: One of the "dishes" the campers had to eat was a flip flop with silicone sealant.
20	* EveryoneHasStandards: Even [[BigEater Owen]] is horrified at the prospect of drinking shots of blended cockroach juice for the tiebreaker. He manages to drink more than Leshawna, but faints immediately afterward.
21	* EvilLaugh: Chris and Chef keep snickering when the campers ask where the food is.
22	* FlyInTheSoup: When the fourth dish, French bunion soup, is revealed, it is surrounded by flies. A subsequent dish is literal garbage stew.
23	* ForceFeeding: Trent's parents did this to him when he was going to eat broccoli. He tells DJ and Geoff to do this to him during the second round. It works, though Trent freaks during it. He later insists he was only playing it up for the camera.
24	* FriendToAllLivingThings: DJ and Bridgette can manage to justify eating stuff like live crickets and worms, but they draw the line at dolphins. Bridgette is especially the most passionate on her love for dolphins, stating as a surfer, she swims with them. This in turn inspires DJ to back off from eating the dolphin wieners.
25	* GrossOutShow: Particularly present in this episode, with all the dishes and vomiting that we see.
26	* HopeSpot: After nine disgusting courses, the last one appears easy to eat, as it seems to be just ordinary hot dogs. Then it turns out they're made of dolphin meat.
27	* IAteWhat: ExtremeOmnivore Owen initially gobbles down the "beef meatballs", only for him recoil when he's told that he ate ''[[ShareTheMalePain bull testicles]]'', causing the guys to lose the first dish.
28	* JerkassHasAPoint: When Bridgette refuses to eat the dolphin wieners, Heather (obnoxious as she's being about it) is right that the dolphin is already dead and that refusing to eat won't bring it back.
29	* JustJokingJustification: Trent instructs the guys to force-feed him disgusting pizza so they can win the round. Part of his instruction is to ignore whatever he says to go back on it. And so the guys ignore it when Trent tries to convince them he was just joking.
30	* TheLastStraw: The final meal, blended cockroach shots, is this shortly after being ingested, triggering a VomitChainReaction from Leshawna and all the males.
31	* LostFoodGrievance: When Bridgette enters the girls' cabin, the first thing she hears is Leshawna yelling at Heather for eating her pudding pockets.
32	* MasochistsMeal: Nine of them served by Chef.
33	* MomentKiller: Chris interrupts before Geoff and Bridgette can kiss.
34	* MoodWhiplash: Geoff is forlorn after Bridgette leaves the cabin. Trent then accidentally knocks him over with his guitar.
35	* NeutralNoLonger: In the beginning of the episode, Bridgette is forced to choose between siding with Heather and Lindsay or with Gwen and Leshawna. She picked the latter because of her friendship with them, while also gaining Heather's grudge. Bridgette later cemented her position against Heather after she tried to make her eat the dolphin wieners.
36	* NoMatterHowMuchIBeg: Trent insists that the other guys force feed him to ensure they win, no matter how much he pleads. When they follow through with this, he insists he was just kidding, to no avail.
37	* OnlySaneWoman: Bridgette throughout the episode for the girls team, the only one trying to get everyone to cooperate.
38	* ShareTheMalePain: The boys can't complete the "Beef Balls" dish after learning they are ''literally that'', giving the girls the upper hand. Even '''[[BigBad Chris]]''' sympathizes with them!
39	-->'''Chris:''' It's the hardest thing a man can do.
40	* ShoutOut: The beef testicles dish comes from an episode of ''Series/FearFactor''.
41	* SingleTear: DJ sheds one at having to eat the beef testicles.
42	* SlasherSmile: Chef gives one when Chris says that the contestants will be spending time with ''him'' while one of the other teams are on a 5-star resort.
43	* SmellySkunk: During a montage, one of the meals is a skunk’s smell literally squeezed into liquid form, then make into a martini drink.
44	* SurvivalMantra: Geoff blindfolds himself and chants "I love spaghetti, spaghetti is good," as he eats the earthworms in slime sauce.
45	* TeethClenchedTeamwork: The girls, mostly due to Heather's alliance with Lindsay and Gwen and Leshawna's hatred of her.
46	* TemptingFate: Bridgette openly doubts the claims that guys always remain tight friends and girls are always catty with each other. She then enters the cabin to see an escalating argument between Heather and Leshawna over petty reasons. Meanwhile, the guys are shown having a fun party.
47	* ThisIsMySide: While fighting with Leshawna, Heather lays down a line of duct tape on the floor of the girls' cabin, with her and Lindsay's bunk beds on one side, and Gwen's and Leshawna's on the other.
48	-->'''Heather''': This is my side, and that’s your side!
49	-->'''Leshawna''': Yeah, that's right. You keep putting down that tape. And if you cross it, I’ll smack you ''down!''
50	* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Owen enjoys the jellyfish/grasshopper/live anchovy pizza and even tries to grab a second slice.
51	* VomitChainReaction: Every single male character in the episode when the challenge finally ends.
52	* VomitIndiscretionShot: Big time. First Trent vomits in the Confessional stall, to the point it leaks out of the window, and then it all gets grosser from there.
53	* WhatTheHellHero: The other guys (Duncan and Trent in particular) condemn Geoff for pep-talking Bridgette through the first round, thus ensuring the girls wins it.
54	* YouAreFat: During a trash-talk argument, Leshawna insults Heather by calling her chest and butt flat. Heather's insults go in the opposite direction.
55	-->'''Heather''': ...especially that. ''(points to Leshawna's bra) That'' is bugging me.\
56	'''Leshawna''': Yeah, it'd bug me too, if I didn't have anything in the front or the back to shake!\
57	'''Heather''': Yeah?! Well, you've got so much junk in your trunk, your jeans should come with a trash compactor!
