S05E09 - The Truth
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mpgis_s05e09.png

Brittnay: She's canadian. She just pretends to be French so people would like her.
Deandra: Who would do that?
Brittnay: A lying maple syrup sucking moosefucker.

Brittnay and Deandra watch as the French club have dinner at a bistro, trying to get intel on Saison, but although Deandra is accompanying Brittnay, she is confident that Saison is actually French. Saison parts ways with the club to go grocery shopping, planning a dinner for her parents. Rachel and Judith refuse to follow Saison and Rachel goes on a tirade about why she hates Brittnay, which she overhears and throws her in the garbage for.

At the competition, Trisha 2 tries to give support to Trisha before the couture competition. Meanwhile, Tanner is avoiding Than and finally gathers courage to call Tristan and tell him about sleeping with Than. Tristan is greatly hurt and immediately breaks up with him over the phone after having a breakdown.

Trisha 1 is nervous and wants Trisha 2 to do it with her to get confident. Using a design called "The Winter of Our Discontent", Trisha 1 nails her part in the competition by smuggling Trisha 2 under her poofy dress. Afterwards, Than also does well in his turn, with his outfit "Thrust or Burst" (a tuxedo with a giant penis), and is still ignorant of Tanner's plight.

While watching over Saison, she notices the drone being used and Deandra destroys it by accident. Brittnay and Deandra see Saison being received by two adults that seem to be her genuinely French parents, surprised, she acknowledges that she was wrong the whole time, but they are immediately kidnapped with dark sacs in their heads.

Cut to inside Saison's house, it's revealed she truly is Canadian, and her parents are just temporarily in France for his work.

Tropes:

  • Audience Surrogate: Deandra and Brittnay serve as the camps who respectively believe that Saison is either French or Canadian.
  • Bag of Kidnapping: Brittnay and Deandra get these at the very end.
  • The Cameo: Tristan finally makes his in this season's episode.
  • Dramatic Irony: Despite Brittnay's and Deandra's thoughts, the former and Jennifer McMiniman were right the whole time.
  • Double-Meaning Title: Tristan finds out the truth about what Tanner did with Than, and we find out the real truth about Saison's origins.
  • Freak Out: Tristan goes into a screaming fit when Tanner tells him that the latter had accidentally slept with Than.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: Right when Brittnay and Deandra have sacks put onto their heads, you can see the clothes and skin colors of their perpetrators—they belong to Chloe and Zoe.
  • Gag Penis: Than's Couture outfit.
  • Laugh Track: When Rachel gets thrown into a dumpster by Brittnay, complete with applause.
  • Pimped-Out Dress: Trisha 1's dress, "The Winter of Our Discontent", is a huge white and blue dress that literally fits an entire other person under her skirt.
  • Reality Is Unrealistic: Yes, there are drones that do actually cost $8000.
  • Right Behind Me: Rachel angrily rants about Brittnay to Judith... completely unaware that Brittnay is coming up right behind her. When Rachel turns around, she immediately gets a one-way ticket to a dumpster.
    Rachel: No, you know what Judith, fuck Brittnay. We’ve been following Saison all week. We haven’t even had any fun for ourselves. (Brittnay and Deandra walk up behind Rachel) And come to think of it, why should we be helping that bitch in the first place? She’s been a cunt to us her whole life, and I’m fuckin' sick of it, man. She’s nothing but a ratchet-ass whore who opens her butthole for every swinging dick that walks on by. And you know what, she’s not even that hot! Someone had to say it. There. I’m glad it was me.
    Judith: Uh, Rach?
    Rachel: What? (turns around to find Brittnay standing right behind her) Aw, shiiiiit! (gets chucked into a dumpster as a studio audience laughs and claps)
  • Shout-Out:
    • The scene where Rachel gets thrown into the dumpster parodies the scenes where Jazz gets thrown out of the house in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Laugh Track and all.
    • Dr. Havoc's tops makes an appearance in the clothes rack when Than is picking out outfits. Doubles as a Casting Gag because both Than and Dr. Havoc are voiced by Mark Cope.
  • Subverted Suspicion Aesop: Brittnay turns out to be right after all about Saison being Canadian.
  • Surveillance Drone: Brittnay employs one on Saison, but Deandra ends up crashing it on accident.
  • Trash Landing: Rachel gets one, courtesy of Brittnay.
  • Wham Episode: Tristan apparently breaks up with Tanner, Brittnay and Deandra get kidnapped by the French Team, and Saison's nationality is finally revealed.
  • Wham Line:
    • After Tanner calls Tristan:
    Tanner: (crying) Tristan and I just broke up!
    • When Saison meets her parents:
    Saison: (in a Canadian accent) Yeah, it's aboot time. (giggles maliciously)
  • Wham Shot:
    • Deandra and Brittnay suddenly getting taken away with bags on their heads by Chloe and Zoe.
    • Saison's parents' very Canadian home.

Rachel chooses a very inappropriate timing to bad-mouth Brittnay.

How well does it match the trope?
