Duncan and Heather

This article focuses on the interactions between Duncan and Heather.

Overview
When he first arrives at Camp Wawanakwa, Duncan shows attraction to Heather and openly flirts with her, but she rejects him. During the first two seasons, Duncan (despite being in a relationship with Courtney) occasionally gives her pet names while she gives him names based on his juvenile records in Total Drama Action. However, like the other contestants, Duncan dislikes Heather's cruel and mean attitude. Eventually, Duncan lost all signs of attraction for her and the conflict intensifies.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 1
Heather immediately is annoyed by Duncan, who flirts with her right after he arrives in the first episode. In fact, Heather's first words in the series is her response to Duncan's flirting saying, "Drop dead, you skeeze". Soon after that, when Heather gets impatient with the attention being given to Bridgette, Duncan taunts her by stating that she "missed her double cappuccino macchiato" that morning, to which Heather responds with a simple "get bent". Later, Heather shows disgust when Duncan requests a bunk under her, which he seems to be doing just to irritate her.

No Pain, No Game
Duncan mistakenly accuses Heather of voting Courtney off, not knowing the real culprit behind Courtney's elimination. For this reason, Duncan does not vote Eva off, instead he votes for Heather.

Search and Do Not Destroy
Duncan is informed by Leshawna about Trent kissing Heather, and agrees to vote either Trent or Heather off. He seems to be upset about it, despite not having a very strong relationship with Gwen or Trent at this point in the show. Although he remarks that Trent "messed up", he seems to be equally upset with Heather.

That's Off the Chain!
Duncan was disgusted when Heather abandoned Lindsay, remarking that what she did was "cold." Heather then said that Duncan was being hypocritical, as he always goes around scaring the crap out of everybody. Offended, Duncan said that at least he was straight with people, implying that he didn't agree with Heather's habit to constantly lie, as a result of Heather's snobbery.

Hook, Line, and Screamer
Duncan took offense when Heather insulted Duncan's and Gwen's enjoyment of horror movies. He replies saying there is lots in them besides "mindless guts and gore." She also remarks that Gwen and Duncan have more in common than "bad fashion sense."

Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
Heather called Duncan a "criminal" while in the confessional, telling the viewing world that she's the favorite to win the $100,000. Later, Duncan considered joining Heather's Alliance, a win-win situation, stating that even if it failed, he would not care. He seems not to have any fear that Heather might be eaten by a bear. Duncan is also seen laughing in the confessional after Heather is shot with Izzy's tranquilizer gun. At the end of this episode, Heather forced Duncan to clean the communal bathrooms for her, pretending she was paralyzed by the tranquilizer dart.

Camp Castaways
Duncan refers to both Heather and Gwen as "insane" and "annoying" and also remarks "which one would you trust?” Also, when Heather says that both Duncan and Gwen are crazy, Duncan retaliates by saying, "You say that like you aren't crazy." Duncan also comments that she "changes friends more often than he changes socks,” to which Heather mentions that he doesn't change his socks often enough.

Are We There Yeti?
Heather convinced Gwen to help her trick Duncan and Owen into thinking they need help camping overnight, in an effort to steal all of their supplies. The effort worked, but soon after Duncan and Owen became very angry with both Gwen and Heather for tricking them. Also, when Duncan is walking the Dock of Shame, Heather insults him, although Duncan ignores her.

Riot On Set
Duncan began to complain about the script he has to memorize, Heather replies to this by calling him a "Prima Donna" and that he should "just stand there and look pretty" and adds, "okay, Pretty Boy?" while poking his shoulder. Duncan then threatens her, until Gwen intervenes.

The Sand Witch Project
Chris forced Duncan and Heather to kiss in this episode during the horror film challenge, which neither of the two enjoyed. Heather said that Duncan "tasted like street," while Duncan was seen gagging afterwards. This suggests that he no longer has any physical attraction for her like he did in the first season, although a brief scene in the very next episode (see below) may contradict this implication.

Masters of Disasters
When Heather was scared about how they would escape the submarine, she automatically grabs on to Duncan, and then, realizing what she has done, she splashes him away with a disgusted look on her face. Duncan was at first confused, but then smirked at her mistake.

Ocean's Eight - Or Nine
Although there were several hints of friendship, the episode was mostly featured on Harold, Heather, and Duncan not getting along, with many instances that showed this. At the beginning of the episode, Heather called Duncan a vandal. She also called him "idiot boy" due to him telling Leshawna not to hit the door on her big butt when they were in a tent. He called her a dweeb in the confessional, and called her a loser to her face. Also, she remarked that she would "seen manlier men trying on women's shoes" when he acted nervous in the presence of Courtney.

Million Dollar Babies
When Heather said they should cheer for her, Duncan said he'd rather cheer for his school principal, his mother, or even Leshawna. Duncan (along with Harold) also votes Heather off in this episode because even though he was angered by Leshawna when she made some rude comments about him (and all of the contestants) on Courtney's PDA, he immediately forgives her when she performed a cheer apologizing to all of the contestants.

Picnic at Hanging Dork
After seeing Alejandro flirting with Courtney, Heather takes revenge by flirting with Duncan. However, Duncan keeps ignoring her since he is dating Gwen, but Heather still got to disturb Alejandro (unintentionally causing him to lose trust from Gwen). When Gwen asks Duncan what's up with Heather, he jokes that she's probably plotting to kill him. Before Gwen could ask, Heather quickly denies planning something on Duncan.

Sweden Sour
While in Sweden, Heather attempts to hug Duncan to make Alejandro jealous, but Duncan refuses to hug back. They get into a brief fight, with Heather pulling at Duncan's hair and Duncan trying to shove her off him over this issue until they are interrupted by Chris.

The second time is when Chris McLean is explaining the sleeping arrangements, and Duncan requests a bunk under Heather. She then asks if the cabins are co-ed, which, to her relief, aren't.

Hide and Be Sneaky
When the girls decide which guy to vote off after figuring out about their secret guys' alliance, Heather is vehemently against voting for Duncan, whom Gwen, Leshawna, and Bridgette are voting for. Instead, she decides Owen should be eliminated.

Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
Duncan forms an alliance with Heather. The two have no problem being in a alliance together. Duncan only made the alliance, however, to get on Heather's good side and then betray her. He states in the confessional that he would be completely fine with Heather getting eaten by a bear. He does however assist her by giving her the deer outfit from Paintball Deer Hunter, which ultimately makes her a target for Izzy (who was hunting a deer). Later on, Heather opens the cage so Duncan can throw the raccoon inside and complete the challenge without showing any sign of annoyance.

Heather seems to have no trouble working with Duncan for a long period of time, and even calls him an "evil genius." They seemed to have gotten along due to their shared hatred for Leshawna. This was shown when Duncan said he didn't want her with them on the challenge and there was no need for cracking the safe to get her out, and Heather agreed. When Duncan crashed the get-away kart into a closet, Heather laughed with Duncan at Harold when Harold had a bra on his chest.
