Alejandro and Heather

This article is about the conflict between Heather and Alejandro, starting from the last episode of Total Drama Action. While most of the girls are smitten with Alejandro, Heather seems fully aware that he's playing them. There are, however, several hints in certain episodes that imply a romantic relationship between the two, but mostly one-sided on Alejandro's side. He often compliments and flirts with her, while Heather responds expressing her disgust with him.

Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special
Heather was mad at Alejandro in the episode because she thought he replaced her and all her fellow contestants on Total Drama because of "Total Drama Dirtbags". Their first one-on-one interaction was during the climactic high-speed bus chase scene, when Alejandro told her that she'd regret messing with him. She replied with a laugh, saying, "You messed with the wrong reality show cast, mister!"

Theme Song
In the theme song, Alejandro is seen smiling and helping Heather up the Statue of Liberty in New York, but she is seen glaring at him.

In the confessional, Heather stated that she could see right through Alejandro and his "tactics".

Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 2
After Alejandro complimented Courtney and the rest of Team Amazon, Heather was shown in the confessional expressing her disgust of Alejandro, but called him "perfect" nevertheless. Later in the episode, she stuck her tongue out at him.

Broadway, Baby!
Alejandro offers candy to the other teams but Heather refused. Later on, she growls at Alejandro for being too close to her. Alejandro notices that Heather is attempting to warm up to Sierra, whom he feels would be the same as having Chris on Heather's side and called her a "manipulative minx" and admitted she was good. To avoid this, Alejandro purposely makes Sierra annoy Chris to make him dislike Sierra. Heather quickly notices that Sierra's pestering was attributed to Alejandro and threatens that she'll get him back in the confessional. Throughout the episode, Heather insulted Alejandro while Alejandro would causally respond to her threats with compliments. Heather switched the baby carriages between Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot and a mother in central park, causing Alejandro and his team to lose. When Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot comes in last, Heather looks over at Alejandro excitedly thinking they would have to eliminate someone until Chris revealed it was a reward challenge. Alejandro looks back and nods at her at first, silently acknowledging her victory. After finding out that this was a reward challenge, he smirks and blows a kiss to Heather and she turns away stubbornly

Slap Slap Revolution
When LeShawna claims that she is jealous of Alejandro paying her so much attention, Heather quickly snaps back about her hatred for him.

The Am-AH-Zon Race
There was not much interaction between the two until towards the end of the episode, when Team Amazon was at their very first elimination ceremony. Alejandro sneaked up next to Heather, who was sitting at the very end of the bleachers and away from the others, and whispers that the game will be too easy for him when she's gone. Heather, unfazed by the insult, reveals that she knows fully well that he played LeShawna, and Bridgette, too, probably. She then says that he's lucky he didn't attempt to play her. He simply replies by saying, "With the temptation of a kiss, even you couldn't resist me forever." They then lean in close to each other dramatically, almost seeming that they are about to kiss. But Heather ruins the moment when she says that she would've crushed him. Chris then starts to announce the ceremony, and Alejandro vanishes. Later, after Heather is saved due to the elimination ceremony being proven a fake, she states in the Confessional, that after she makes her teammates pay for their attempt to vote her off, she will crush Alejandro for dessert.

Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 2
Heather seemed to be falling for Alejandro during the episode, as seen by her confessional comments. An example was when she called him "perfect", which she regretted saying after asking herself what Alejandro's deal is. Alejandro also blew a kiss at Heather, in response to her sticking her tongue out at him. Heather seemed to be somewhat shocked and slightly flattered by this, but quickly got a hold of herself and ignored him.

Broadway, Baby!
When Team Chris's and Team Victory's boat's fly out of the sewer pipe and land in Central Park, Alejandro realizes that Team Amazon is still missing. With a genuine look of fear and concern on his face, he worriedly asks, "Where's Heather's boat?!" Moments later, Heather and the rest of Team Amazon emerge from the same pipe. He also admitted in the confessional earlier that Heather is "good," when he realized her plan to align with Sierra, Chris's pet.

Slap Slap Revolution
Throughout the episode, Heather is visibly upset to see Alejandro flirting with LeShawna. When LeShawna beats her up at the end of the episode, Alejandro is very concerned and throws the challenge to make sure that she is alright. In Heather's final confessional, she starts to compliment him, before catching herself. Towards the end of the episode, Heather demands to know why he took a dive, though Alejandro avoids the question by flirting with her again.

Can't Help Falling in Louvre
At the episode's beginning, both Heather and Alejandro are sitting in the economy-class section with their teammates. Heather saracstically asks Alejandro if he's having trouble controlling his team, in order to irritate him after the plane stopped shaking. He ignores her attempt, and instead calls her attempts to anger him, "cute". Heather then replies with "Whatever", and says that her team is strong and never gets distracted by boys. Alejandro then smirks, pointing to Sierra, who is now on the floor crying over Cody and eating straight from an icecream tub. Heather angrily drags Sierra out of the room.
