Another one-shot, but this one is canon. It takes place before Picnic Hanging at the Dork.

"Favorite way to imagine Chris dying" Duncan asks. Gwen glances up at the ceiling in thought. Duncan smirks. They're sitting in the back of the plane alone, the other contestants are elsewhere.

"I picture pushing him off the plane a lot" Gwen answers.

"Mmm" Duncan begins, his arm lazily draped around Gwen "Realistic, respectable. Drowning him in hair gel. His hair gel."

"That's perfect!" she laughs. "Okay, okay. People you hate the most."

"Huh" Duncan says, removing his arm from Gwen as he leans forward and thinks. "I think Tyler, and Harold. But I hate Harold way more than Tyler. It's just his existence."

"I didn't notice" Gwen teases in a monotone voice.

"Whatever" Duncan chuckles "Your turn babe."

"Heather and Courtney" Gwen replies "No question. I hate how they are so used to having things given to them that they always have to get their way."

"Well that's stupid" Duncan comments.

"I know, right?" Gwen agrees, but Duncan shakes his head.

"No that you think that" Duncan explains, but Gwen's eyebrows furrow.

"What does that mean?" she shoots, uncomfortable and confused.

Duncan sighs "Not trying to piss you off babe, but you are kind of wrong."

"How am I wrong?" Gwen asks, trying to be civil.

"Well first off, Courtney isn't used to having things given to her. Heather was but Courtney has never. She's the type of person who's gotten her way through hard work and force. She really doesn't understand any other way."

"Is there a second?" Gwen snaps.

"Look babe, I don't want to hurt your feelings" Duncan starts "But I'm just being honest. You don't really know her."

"Yeah I do!" Gwen argues "Have you seen the way she's been acting? Throwing fits, crying, attempting to attack me!"

"She's upset" Duncan replies "You did make out with her boyfriend." He means for this to be playful, but Gwen doesn't receive it that way.

"And then she went crazy!" Gwen snaps. "How are you defending her? She wants to shove you off the plane too!"

"I cheated on her." He shrugs. "You can't condemn a person for a short period of irritation" he says. Then he smiles "Well in court you can." Gwen shifts uncomfortably as he says this. "You've got to look at their history."

"Well I think she's a bratty little bitch, and will always be" Gwen declares, wanting to hold her ground. Duncan's smile fades.

"Look babe I like you a lot" he tells her "But honestly don't talk about things you don't know a shit about." She's shocked by the anger in his voice. She doesn't think she's ever heard him like this before. Maybe once. Maybe on the Island. And she remembers it clearly, a video they were shone after the Xtreme Torture challenge. She glares at him.

"I know exactly what I'm talking about" she snaps.

"Babe, I don't want to fight about this" he says, his voice softer, but his eyes just as stern.

"Fine, but it's because I'm right" Gwen replies, looking for affirmation. Instead Duncan rolls his eyes and leans back in his seat.

"We should get some sleep. We'll be in Australia in a few hours." He closes his eyes, and she gets up to go to the bathroom. To cool off. This isn't something to fight about. AS she walks away she hears him mumble something along the lines of 'can't even make a decent argument." She tenses when she realizes who he sounds like.

She has to walk through a good portion of the plane before she reaches the bathroom. There are a lot of the people along the way. Sierra is cradling Cody. Alejandro is now where to be found. Courtney is asleep, her eyes red and puffy. Gwen looks away quickly rushing the bathroom so she can get back to Duncan and away from all this.

She opens the door to Heather.

"Can't even lock a door?" she says, waiting for Heather's haughty retort. But she doesn't receive one.

"You know you were her friend" Heather finally says stepping out of Gwen's way. Gwen realizes she must have heard most of their conversation.

"Yeah and she wants to push me off the plane" Gwen argues, not moving.

"It's not as if she doesn't have a reason" Heather answers, stepping around Gwen. Gwen spins around.

"It wasn't just me!" Gwen shouts, forgetting about the sleeping people "He did it too!"

"And if she doesn't have the guts to push him off" Heather says, still walking, not turning back, and giving Gwen a slight wave. "I'll do it for her."

Gwen uses the bathroom, thinking about Heather. Heather defending someone. Heather offering to do something to help someone else. It had to be a strategy she thought. Why would she help Courtney? Courtney was terrible! Sure they were friends before, but things change. A strategy to look like the good guy, while kicking off all her real competitors.

When Gwen is walking back, she sees something beyond unusual. In all there time on the plane Heather has never slept next to Courtney, but Gwen finds her right next to Courtney. And suddenly Gwen remembers when Heather kissed Trent. She starts to feel like Heather. Her skin crawls, because the difference was, Heather wasn't her friend, but Courtney, Courtney was.

I really hope Total Drama 5 changes all of this…I'm mad at so many characters, but I'm 100% for Courtney/Heather friendship.

This episode really was just frustrating (the Australia one) Like great Gwen DON'T communicate with your boyfriend, just use Cody.

ANYWAYS SO MANY FEELINGS Please review!
