History Recap / TotalDramaTheAmAHZonRace

* KarmaHoudini: Heather is directly responsible for her team losing, as her vanity led to her refusing Courtney's extremely understandable demand for her to make the Zing Zings untie them, except everyone thinks it is Gwen's fault in the first place. Heather is nearly voted off for causing the team to lose, only for Chris to reveal it is not an elimination challenge.

* BladeOnAStick: The Zing-zings carry these as part of their act.

* GoldTooth: Starting from this episode, Heather gets one to replace the one she lost from the previous episode, until Revenge of the Island, where she clearly got a normal prosthesis.

* BalloonBelly: Lindsay's belly grows a bump after she stuffs herself silly with bananas as a reward for a challenge that Team Victory won

* DeepSleep: After spending a while under the influence of Cody's EpiPen, Gwen completely crashes and spends most of the day completely asleep. The enormous dose of adrenaline quickly wears off and the ensuing burst of exhaustion causes her to fall asleep until the challenge ends, much like most anesthetics.
DudeNotFunny: Before Chris reveals who Team Amazon voted for via television, he mocks Cody for his swollen thumb, asking if he would "give it a big fat thumbs up, making the latter scowl angrily at that joke.

* NeverMyFault: After Team Amazon officially loses, Heather places blame on Gwen, for TemptingFate earlier and choosing which path they went down. However, they ended up staying in one place for a majority of the challenge even after the Zing-Zings untied Heather and treat her their goddes, under the flimsy excuse that if she ordered them to release everyone they might get mad and demand a human sacrifice. It is even revealed later that the "Zing-Zings" are actually actors and the team was never in any danger of them, but Heather still blames Gwen.

* BaitAndSwitch: It looks like Gwen will be eliminated, as it was her decisions hat resulted in the team losing. Instead, it would have been Heather who would have been thrown out of the game, but Chris reveals it was a non-elimination challenge.

--> '''[[TrolL Chris]]''': Getting colder.

* KarmaHoudini: Heather is directly responsible for her team losing, as her vanity led to her refusing Courtney's extremely understandable demand for her to make the Zing Zings untie them, except everyone thinks it is Gwen's fault in the first place. It looks like Heather will get some form of karma, only for Chris to reveal it is not an elimination challenge.

* ImprovisedZipline: An interesting case, where the zipline itself is fine, but there's only one T-bar that's available, which is used by Team Victory. The true improvisation comes from what Team Chris use as substitutes for the unavailable T-bar. Alejandro uses his belt, Owen uses his hands, Tyler uses his pants, and Izzy uses a backpack (with Noah stuffed into it).

* RealityEnsues:
** When on the zipline to cross the river, Owen and Tyler use their hands and pants respectively, which ends with said hands and pants burning and sending them into the Amazon River.
