User:PhoenixDragonSamurai/Cody and Trent (archived)

This page is an archived interaction page that was deleted in the past and is currently kept for future references. This article focuses on the interactions between Cody and Trent.

Overview
Cody and Trent both compete in Total Drama Island, are both members of the Screaming Gophers, and are both part of a temporary band called The Drama Brothers along with Harold and Justin. Cody and Trent have some friendly interactions throughout Total Drama Island, but also share a similar love interest. Cody repeatedly prevents Trent from getting closer to Gwen, with his own advances. However, Cody later helps Trent (while both are jealous of the other) to win over Gwen by having them partnered together for a challenge. Although, he also has a crush on Gwen. Cody wishes to make Gwen happy, even if it means helping his love rival, Trent, wins Gwen's affections. After Gwen and Trent broke up, Cody once again tries to make his move, not knowing that Gwen has already fallen in love with another person.

Opening sequence
When Gwen and Trent are sitting by the campfire, gazing dreamily into each other's eyes and leaning in towards each other, Cody spoils the moment when he pops up in the middle and puts his arms around both them. Both Gwen and Trent look at him awkwardly.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 2
In the hot-tub, when Cody proposes a toast to the Screaming Gophers for winning the first challenge, Trent enthusiastically responds along with the other team members.

Not Quite Famous
Cody tries to copy Trent in hopes of attracting Gwen's attention. This fails, however, when Cody falls over trying to imitate him. Gwen doesn't even notice Cody, because she is too busy staring dreamily at Trent. Later, when Trent and Gwen spend time alone together at the dock, Cody and Owen cannonball into the lake, soaking Gwen, causing her to turn back into her miserable state. Trent glares angrily at both of them as Gwen trudges away, saying "nice going guys." During the talent show, when Heather reads Gwen's diary out loud, Cody at first thinks that he is the boy Gwen has a crush on and wrote about, but realizes after she mentions that the guy could play guitar that she is actually referring to Trent. After hearing this, he looks up at Trent and they both share a moment's glance.

Up the Creek
Cody attempts to save Trent and Lindsay from the quicksand, while making a painful collision with a tree. He kind of succeeds, because of a vine hanging over the sand that he uses to swing to their safety. Trent is able to grab onto that and pull himself and Lindsay out. Trent offers his hand to Cody for a low-five, but Cody misses because he is disoriented. He also calls Cody a "life saver." At this point, Cody is sure of Gwen's attraction to Trent, and wishes to help her win him over, even though he too loves Gwen.

When Cody first approaches Trent, he offers him a soda from the inside of his pants. Trent is disgusted, but turns it away nicely. Cody then tells him they should talk "mano-y-mano." Trent laughs, obviously not taking Cody seriously, but accepts the offer. The conversation turns serious when Cody tells Trent that the thing he wants to talk about is Gwen. When he admits to have been hitting on her and failing several times, Trent looks unimpressed due to his own liking for Gwen. Cody also tells Trent that Gwen is really into him, after seeing her reject his own advances. Trent suddenly reacts aggressively, standing up and getting nearer to Cody, promising him that he could easily "rearrange his face" if he is lying. Cody looks frightened at first, but convinces Trent that he would have nothing to gain from lying to him. Trent relaxes, puts down his hand, and gives Cody a smile, relieved and happy to know that Gwen really does like him. Cody then sets Trent up with Gwen for the canoe ride back while he ride with Lindsay and Beth, and Trent responds positively.

Paintball Deer Hunter
When Cody suggests that being a fake deer might be fun, Trent (along with Heather and Gwen) glares at him. However, when Cody is voted off, Trent is shown waving goodbye to him and seems genuinely saddened.

Haute Camp-ture
While Cody tries to get a tan, Trent asks him if he needs some sunscreen, saying he looked a bit pink. Cody thanks Trent, but tells him that a tan will "attract the ladies." Later, Cody joins the group near the pool, but is completely red. Trent shows concern when he approaches, but Cody promises he is fine, while he really has a second-degree sunburn. When the group talks about who they want to win the game, Cody says he wants Gwen to win the hundred thousand dollars. Trent frowns slightly, because he knows Cody still has a crush on Gwen. Though he looks dissatisfied at first, that changes when Cody says that he wants Gwen to be happy no matter what, even if she chose Trent. Trent smiles and pats him on the back, saying how cool that was of him, but that hurts Cody because of his sunburn, to which Trent apologizes later.

The Aftermath: I
In the episode, after Gwen and Trent's breakup, Bridgette and Geoff ask the commentators if they are on Team Gwen or Team Trent. Cody responds to this saying he's on Team Gwen.
