In Total Dramarama season 3 episode 3, entitled "Broken Back Kotter," the drama continues as the pre-schoolers are faced with new challenges and unexpected twists. The episode opens with the students playing a game of Red Rover, but things take a turn for the worst when Gwen accidentally trips and lands on her head, leaving her with a broken back. With Gwen out of commission, the rest of the class must figure out how to cheer her up and keep her entertained until she's back on her feet.
As the days go by, the kids try everything from playing board games to putting on puppet shows, but nothing seems to be working. That is until Chef Hatchet comes up with a brilliant idea - why not turn the school into a hospital for the day and have each student play a different role in the medical field? The kids are thrilled with the idea and quickly get to work.
Noah takes on the role of the doctor, while Owen becomes the nurse and Izzy the receptionist. Meanwhile, Leshawna and Beth are put in charge of keeping Gwen entertained by putting on a fashion show, complete with fancy gowns and accessories. The outfit that gets the biggest reaction from Gwen is a pink tutu that Leshawna made herself.
But just when things start to look up, disaster strikes once again. While trying to show off her dance moves in the tutu, a clumsy Owen accidentally spills a cup of hot tea all over Gwen's lap, causing her to scream in pain and frustration. The kids are beside themselves with guilt and decide that they need to come up with a new plan to help their friend feel better.
After much brainstorming, they settle on a plan to create a mini amusement park in the classroom. They construct a rollercoaster out of household items and use fake snow to create a winter wonderland. When Gwen finally wakes up from her nap, she is overjoyed to see the amazing surprise the kids have prepared for her.
The episode ends on a high note as all the preschoolers ride the rollercoaster together, laughing and screaming with delight. Though the day had started with a broken back and seemed like it would never end, it ultimately turned into a fun-filled adventure that everyone will remember for a long time.
