Heather

Heather, labeled The Queen Bee, was a camper and the main antagonist, of Total Drama Island on the Screaming Gophers team. She was also a castmate on Total Drama Action on the Screaming Gaffers team and is a contestant on Total Drama World Tour as a current member of Team Amazon.

Biography
Heather has it all - looks, brains, talent - the list could go on and on, but why talk about something that is so obvious? Heather likes to keep busy with extra curricular activities. (Read: Be the center of attention and hog the spotlight.) She's School President, (after several ballot boxes for her opponents mysteriously ended up in the boys urinals). She's Head Cheerleader (but only attends rallies where the Year Book Photographer is present). She's Head of the Year Book Committee (to ensure that "said photographer" includes only her best shots, and also to ban photos of anyone she hates). She's President of the Debate Team, (because she loves to argue) but will only debate issues of personal interest (i.e. did you see Susie's new haircut? Can everyone say: "80's perm-gone-wrong"?) Heather is a winner at everything and can do anything she sets her mind to because she doesn't have to worry about pesky things like morals, ethics or scruples getting in the way. Her credo is "Why put off until tomorrow what someone else can do for you today." The only place Heather is out-ranked is at home. She has an evil younger brother, Damien, who enjoys torturing Heather by booby-trapping her room and putting glue in her hair conditioner. Heather would be mortified if the audience discovered her deep dark secret, but Total Drama Island has heard from reliable sources (her brother) that she used to be a fat, brace-faced, pimply, style-challenged junior high reject; something she overcompensates for now with a mean veneer and lots of makeup. Heather hopes that her experience on Total Drama Island will open more doors for her so she can eventually attain her long-time goal of ruling Europe.

Total Drama Island
Heather intended to win Total Drama Island with strategic, manipulative plans, which led to many camper's eliminations. This caused her to get on the bad side of all the campers including Chef and Chris before she left the island. These methods get Heather very far into the competition, but her proficiency with the competition quickly gave Heather a bigger ego than she had upon arriving, which lead to her eventual downfall.

At first, when Heather learned where she was really spending her summer, she did everything in her power to get out of the competition immediately, but quickly found that under the fine print of the contract, she had no choice but to compete in the competition. She was extremely uncooperative in the first challenge, and almost instantly became enemies with LeShawna and Gwen, but just as quickly had Lindsay's unconditional support. She vowed to get revenge on LeShawna after she forced her to take part in the challenge, but insincerely apologized to her later on so she could get back at her later. Heather assured Lindsay that the two of them were friends ("for now").

Her first big move was to make an alliance with Beth and Lindsay in The Big Sleep, promising the two that with her help, they would be the final three campers. Heather chose these two in particular due to Lindsay's lack of intelligence and sheep-like mentality and Beth's desperation to become popular and accepted by the masses. With Heather giving off an air of a popular kind of girl, the girls quickly agreed to be part of the alliance. However, complications arise when Lindsay falls for Tyler, who was member of the other team. After recognizing this, Heather disallowed inter-team dating for alliance members. She continued to add on a list of rules that Beth and Lindsay strictly had to adhere to, or otherwise risk getting kicked out of the alliance.

Many of these rules, however, were unfair and basically allowed Heather to mold Beth and Lindsay in any way she wanted without having to give anything in return. In the same episode, Heather stole Eva's MP3 player, causing Eva's entire team to turn against her and vote her off (as Heather had planned). Heather considered this a major victory for herself, as she single-handedly removed one of the biggest threats to the team early on in the competition. Later on, in addition to becoming captain of her own alliance, Heather took every opportunity to lead the Screaming Gophers team in general during challenges in spite of other campers questioning her integrity.

She quickly notices Gwen developing feelings for Trent. Since Heather hated Gwen and felt threatened by this budding "alliance," she found Gwen's secret diary in Not Quite Famous and read it to the entire camp and on national television. Despite several campers finding that act uncalled for, Heather used her alliance's votes and bribed a few of her other teammates to vote off Justin instead, simply because of his lack of a personality at that time. Heather would use these tactics to keep her safe from elimination from every challenge; even if she did something especially heinous.

Heather's dictatorship in the alliance eventually made Beth snap and turn against her after essentially making her alliance members her personal slaves in daily activities, such as warming up the shower for her and washing her back. After a massive paintball fight and a second consecutive loss for her team in Paintball Deer Hunter, it was Cody being severely mauled by a bear that narrowly saved Heather from elimination that night. Beth was more-or-less considered out of the alliance.

Heather chooses herself as head chef for the next challenge in If You Can't Take The Heat..., allowing her to boss the entire team around to cook a three-course meal for Chris McLean. Her bossy attitude made LeShawna snap, and after an incident where Heather lost her eyebrows after trying to light an upside-down cake flambé, the majority of the team (including Lindsay and Beth) took away her make-up bag and threw it in the freezer, causing Heather to run in and be locked inside. She ended up missing out on seeing the results, but was eventually let out by Lindsay after the team lost a third time in a row. Heather and the others realized Beth accidentally took back a tiki doll from their trip to Boney Island in Up the Creek, which allegedly cursed the team, and served as an explanation for why the Screaming Gophers were on a losing streak. Heather nearly kicked Lindsay out of the alliance, but gave her one last chance if she voted with her that night. She agreed to the terms, and once again Heather was almost eliminated. Luckily for Heather, the other campers, despite their hatred of Heather, found it more important to vote off Beth because of the curse she brought upon the team. Heather was safe again, but by this point, the remaining campers kept a vigilant eye on her, waiting for the next opportunity to eliminate her. Heather's only true ally was Lindsay for a while.

In X-Treme Torture, she becomes embarrassed after driving a wave runner and while attempting to cut the rope Harold was holding onto for a challenge, a tree branch snagged her top and rendered Heather topless, which Harold saw the entirety of and was entranced by it. Though it managed to cause him (and his team) to lose, Harold continued to harp on about getting to see breasts, regardless of whose it was. LeShawna chased after Heather after she found out whose breasts Harold saw, as Harold had just proclaimed his love for LeShawna before being eliminated in that episode. After this point, the teams are dissolved, resulting in Bridgette having to move into the Screaming Gophers' girls cabin, being the only female Killer Bass left on the island. Heather immediately tried to lure her into the alliance, but Bridgette ultimately sided with Gwen and LeShawna.

Eva and Izzy return to the island afterward in No Pain, No Game, with Izzy apparently taking Heather and Lindsay's side (temporarily), but Eva's intimidating presence straightened all of the girls - even Heather - out. She and LeShawna went into a territorial battle in the previous episode, with Heather laying down tape to establish boundaries due to how poorly the girls were getting along. With Eva inquiring about the tape, Heather instantly wadded up the tape and threw it out. Although it was Heather who caused Eva to get eliminated in the first place, Eva focused mainly on Bridgette for revenge (though she did vote for Heather to be eliminated in this episode) due to her being a former Killer Bass teammate. Duncan also tried to vote Heather off, thinking she was behind Courtney, his girlfriend's, elimination (although in reality Heather had nothing to do with that; it was Harold's doing). Eva had shaken everyone up enough for everyone else to forget about Heather for once, and the overwhelming majority of the votes took Eva out of the competition again.

In Search and Do Not Destroy, Heather pulls off one of her most devious schemes in this episode when she spots Gwen and Trent kissing. Considering this as a rival alliance and not wanting that sort of competition, she enlisted Lindsay's help to organize a situation where Gwen would find Heather kissing Trent on the Dock of Shame after telling numerous lies to Trent about how much Gwen actually hated him and was using him to get herself further in the competition. It broke both of their hearts, and when LeShawna found out about Gwen's side of the story she made a temporary alliance of her own, telling almost everyone about the incident and trying to get either Heather or Trent eliminated - preferably Heather. Unfortunately for Trent, Heather won Invincibility in the challenge, making her untouchable. All went according to plan, and Trent was sent away next. The truth was revealed before Trent left, so LeShawna got revenge on Heather by rearranging the pipelines while she took a shower, resulting in Heather getting covered in sewage. All of her clothes were shredded by LeShawna as well.

Heather became aware of the boys forming their gender-only alliance in Hide and Be Sneaky, trying to pick off the girls one by one due to the fact that the girls currently outnumbered them and figured they would do the same to them. Heather won invincibility again during the challenge, being especially greedy about it in not allowing Lindsay to share in it despite Heather finding two people with Lindsay with her at the same time. The boys ultimately decided to vote Bridgette off because of this. Heather attempted to get a unanimous vote from the other girls to combat this, but Gwen, LeShawna, Bridgette, and Izzy could not see eye-to-eye on Heather and Lindsay's choice. The Guys' Alliance prevailed, and Bridgette was voted off. Before the episode ended, Heather was being particularly mean to Lindsay, which led to some foreshadowing in the next episode.

Heather tricked Lindsay into protecting her bike and giving her invincibility while disregarding Lindsay's own safety in That's Off The Chain! She forced Lindsay to build a bike for her, and in the final course of the race (where the winner wins invincibility and whoever crossed the finish line last was automatically eliminated from the island), instructed Lindsay to clear a path through the obstacle courses and basically throw the race so that Heather herself could get by easily and take first place, as well as invincibility. At the time, they also had Owen and Duncan as competitors, so Lindsay followed along with this plan to keep Heather safe, assuming one of the guys would be eliminated. When neither of them did not count on was Owen and Duncan failing to complete the race, meaning Heather and Lindsay were the only two who did. Since Heather passed by Lindsay, that led to her winning invincibility once more, and Lindsay being eliminated. When Lindsay realized Heather was just using her all along, she doesn't like her as a friend or a person, Lindsay snapped and yelled out a string of expletives (along with a middle finger gesture) towards her former alliance-mate, as she finally came to understand about the other campers being right about Heather not being a nice person in the least. While Heather was stunned, she reminded everyone of her invincibility and walked away. Before Lindsay left the island, she hoped Heather would get everything her karma owed her, which would come to be true in the future.

Heather continues to dodge elimination throughout the series in various ways, not necessarily by her own doing. She did, however, get on the bad side on nearly every camper left over; even Owen, perhaps one of the nicest campers on the island, snapped after Heather insulted his love interest, Izzy, to his face and refused to stop. Like Lindsay, he shouted expletives to Heather to her face. However, as the competition narrowed down, Heather and a few choice others found it more important to vote off the easy-going, popular people like Geoff while they still had the chance. The losers in Haute Camp-ture even had the opportunity to vote Heather off themselves, as none of them had anything nice to say about her, but were tricked into voting LeShawna off instead. Heather reluctantly teamed up with Gwen in Are We There Yeti? to win invincibility for both of them against Owen and Duncan. Using deceptive tactics, such as pretending to be weak, helpless girls, Heather and Gwen won invincibility, Duncan was voted off, and Heather made it to the final three as she had planned so early on in the series, even if it was without Beth and Lindsay.

Gwen and Owen cooked up a plan to get rid of Heather once and for all in I Triple Dog Dare You!; a sudden-death elimination round based on dares from other campers. After Owen earns twenty Get-Out-Of-Dare Freebies, Gwen makes a deal with him which leaves her with half of Owen's freebies. Despite Heather's protests, Chris allows Gwen and Owen to pummel Heather with sick and disgusting dares. Heather endures them all, until she is faced with a challenge given by Lindsay. Underestimating her, Heather was horrified to learn that the dare was based off a threat Heather herself dared to do to her in a past episode: get her head shaved off by Chef Hatchet. She is torn between what to decide on as Chef inches closer with the razor blade, and kicks it out of Chef's hands before making a decision. The razor blade ends up landing on top of Heather and shaves most of her hair off anyway, leaving Heather's head a disfigured mess. Since she did not actually accept the dare, Heather was then eliminated. Karma had finally caught up with her. She left the island, kicking and screaming the entire way.

Heather is not gone for long, as she returns in the season finale with the other losers to cheer for either Owen or Gwen to win. Heather considers Owen the lesser of two evils, and the majority of the losers pick Owen as well after he promises to throw a party on a yacht for everyone with his prize money. She makes a final attempt to bring down Gwen by fixing some obstacles in Owen's favor. Though Owen wins, Heather's pride is lost when LeShawna takes matters into her own hands and locks Heather in the Confessional stall (where Owen just had explosive diarrhea after he ate her cupcake which was meant for Gwen). Not only does Heather not get to see the winner, but she is trapped in a small area that reeks of Owen's stink (which stays on her for the rest of the episode). Heather pouts over it until Chris is dumped into the lake by the other campers as a means of getting revenge for the torture he put them all through. Gwen tells Heather that she must be happy to see him tossed in. Heather slowly smiles and says "Yeah... a bit." It seems she had briefly made peace with Gwen and the others then, but it is shown to only be temporary.

In the special, after Heather is rejected by all the teams due to her past actions, she resorts to forming a team with Harold. After Owen needs to use the bathroom, Harold momentarily swipes the case and builds a hang-glider for Heather and himself. Heather, however, turns on him and kicks him in the groin. Heather then takes the hang-glider and attempts to fly it, but it falls apart and sends Heather head-first into a beaver dam. In the process, the case falls out of her hands. Later, a beaten-up Heather, having finally escaped the angry beavers, encounters Harold yet again, as he pulls up alongside her by the river in a canoe. She at first doesn't want to be with him, as she is angry at "being pushed off a cliff," "being attacked by beavers," "being left to die" and "losing a million dollars." But Harold is determined to help her, thus having a heart-to-heart talk with her, in which she reveals that she doesn't like being mean, but it's like a habit. Harold understands, and once again offers to let her re-join their alliance, for a 60/40 split, threatening to let her take the alternative of walking five kilometers back to camp, and with the beavers probably still out to get her. However, she makes an awkward facial gesture afterward and shakes her head, meaning she may have lied and just said this to gain an advantage (as she has been known to do in the past), or didn't want to be friends with Harold and just told him yes to be nice. She may have also really meant it and just thought the speech was lame, although this is probably not the case.

Total Drama Action
Due to her actions from the past season, Heather finds herself extremely unpopular. Nonetheless, Heather is determined to work herself back to the top and win the money this time, while taking out revenge on all her enemies. Based on the actions that occur during the new theme song and the first episode, it is shown that Heather is still bitter enemies with Gwen and LeShawna; Lindsay and Beth continue to stay away from her as well. She is hated to the point where all of the girls are determined not to bunk with her. Due to some math complications, Heather ends up having a bunk bed all to herself; the top and bottom. However, by Riot On Set she has begun sharing a bunk with LeShawna for unexplained reasons. It could possibly have been because the other girls thought it was unfair for her to have two bunks for herself.

In Alien Resurr-eggtion, the contestants had to avoid an alien costumed, paint/slime gun-wielding Chef Hatchet and retrieve alien eggs and return them to the trailers. Heather suggests teaming up for the challenge to Owen, Izzy, and Harold. Owen asks if that implies an alliance and Izzy reminds Heather that they don't like her. She says it meant no commitment of any kind, so they agree, though the group is quickly eliminated by the Chef. Heather's attempt at being nice to gain allies seems to have returned at least in this scene; this may be a sign that she is trying to change her ways in order to adapt and survive in this competition. When Heather is confronted by Chef, she tries to flee. Chef seems to have a grudge against Heather, as he says that he wanted revenge for her putting laxative in his brownies, saying that his undercooked meat was enough to make people run to the bathroom. When he shoots Heather with the paint/slime gun, her wig falls off and falls through the grating of the alien spaceship set, making her unable to retrieve it. Heather then explains that she has tried everything to make her hair grow back normally, but nothing works, and her hair only grows in patches.

In Riot On Set, Gwen chooses her for her team (but only because LeShawna advises it to help gain an advantage over the opposing team and to keep an eye on Heather herself). It is revealed that she actually does lie to Harold in the special and really does not think highly of him at all. She does seem to form an alliance with him, but this doesn't play out in later episodes. While Heather is still not well liked by the other contestants, her comments seem to be less hurtful, and slightly on the playful side (as when she says Harold's only female fan is his mother, or commenting on his "sad, saggy, little butt").

By 3:10 to Crazytown, Heather still does not get along with LeShawna. While debating which of the two girls would do the high dive onto a horse challenge first, they decide to climb up at the same time. On their way up, LeShawna insults Heather's brief shirt, and Heather retaliates by insulting LeShawna's "mall kiosk T-shirt." This irks LeShawna to the point of pushing Heather off of the high dive. This scene is reminiscent of the scene in Not So Happy Campers - Part 2, where Heather refuses to dive off of the cliff, prompting LeShawna to push her off. This time, however, LeShawna is pulled off of the high dive with Heather. Both girls land on a weather vane, and hang off of it by the seat of their pants. While LeShawna falls off by herself, Heather is left hanging despite her pleas for help. She is eventually helped down off-screen as she appears in the following scenes of the episode.

Heather does not appear in The Aftermath: I, but she is talked about. When Geoff and Bridgette are debating over whether Trent cheated on Gwen by kissing Heather, or whether Heather simply tricked Trent, Geoff states that he thinks Heather is the hottest girl on the show (as he was next to Bridgette). His comments shock those that hear them, but he retracts his statement when trying to get back on Bridgette's good side.

In The Chefshank Redemption, Heather became suspicious of Gwen after she was trying to make her team loses in order to repay the Killer Grips for Trent cheating for her. She tried to point out that something was up with Gwen, but at first was not believed by her cast-mates. After the Screaming Gaffers lost, it was between Heather and Gwen for the final Gilded Chris Award, Heather got the award and she pushes Chris off the podium. Finally happy to see her enemy be eliminated, she tells the rest of the team what a loser Gwen is and continues to mock Gwen as she heads to the Lame-o-sine. As revealed in the confessional, Heather joined along with LeShawna and Harold to vote Gwen off.

In One Flu Over the Cuckoos, Heather seems to show more compassion, as she seems to feel sympathetic towards LeShawna when she begins to cry at the end of the episode. Heather also votes for LeShawna to have to reward, over herself. Heather also reveals that she has a sister, along with the brother who was known about in the past, who she dislikes. It is also revealed that she is closest to her mother. Overall, Heather is very committed to the challenge in this episode and studies hard for it, even though it is simply a reward challenge where no one is going to be eliminated from the competition. Though it almost seems as if she is turning over a new leaf, she is unaware that LeShawna is trying to form an alliance (though currently unsuccessfully) with Duncan and Harold to combat her usual wicked ways.

In The Sand Witch Project, Heather and Duncan are forced by Chris to kiss each other during the third part of the horror film challenge. Heather (as well as Duncan) went through with this challenge, but with great reluctance, only with the reminder that one million dollars was on the line as an incentive. Afterward, Heather gags and tells Duncan that he "tasted like the street" and that her lips may never recover; the kiss itself was more scream-inducing for Heather and Duncan than DJ's role as the surprise killer. Heather helps her team win the final challenge of the week by playing the role of the undead rent-a-cop. Heather then notices that DJ is looking sad and guilty right after their team wins and surprisingly asks if he is alright (and with a soft spoken voice). However, on more than one occasion, DJ hallucinates and sees visions of his mother when looking at Heather due to his guilt in being in an illegal alliance with Chef Hatchet. This is another example of Heather showing signs of improved compassion for her teammates as the season progresses.

Heather is shown carrying on a casual conversation with Beth and Harold in Masters of Disasters, but is angered along with Duncan when she finds out that LeShawna faked her crying two episodes ago to win the reward for herself. It is unknown how this will affect the Screaming Gaffers' functionality, as they have been working much more cohesively as a team in recent episodes even though no one in the team really cares for Heather still; in spite of this, Heather remains to be a solid team player and has not had any underhanded schemes or alliances made apparent for a while now. Later, Heather, along with Duncan, is still holding a grudge against LeShawna for lying in a past episode. Despite her anger at LeShawna, she seems to be growing better at teamwork, as she is shown working with Harold to help LeShawna feel better when LeShawna is having digestive issues.

In Full Metal Drama, Heather appears to show some sympathy for LeShawna when she is in trouble getting her "Gas Baby" out, but is more annoyed then sympathetic for the most part. She abandons the team after LeShawna stinks up their hiding place, leaving Harold and Duncan to fend for themselves against the Grips, though they prevail regardless.

During Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, she and Duncan begin to mutually agree on many things, including LeShawna's past actions in One Flu Over the Cuckoos. She appears to have much experience when it comes to unlocking items, seen in the bank vault challenge. She inferred that the lock combination had something to do with Chris McLean, and tried putting in things like his birthday and measurements, even though they were all incorrect. She didn't seem to get along with Harold and was also was shown to careless about LeShawna, by leaving her in the bank vault throughout the entire challenge; but actually works with Duncan with minimal problems, and even compliments him, calling him an evil genius. She, along with the Total Drama Staff, seemed to be the most upset of Courtney's return to the set, claiming that she got voted off fair and square (when she really didn't). During the getaway Go-Kart challenge, she is very happy to win, but finds out that their reward was not worth the effort, and gets upset.

Heather is first seen during One Million Bucks, B.C. in the Girls' Trailer. She argues with LeShawna, who complains about being locked in the safe all day in the previous episode. After Lindsay complains about a knot in her hair, she gladly volunteers to get it out. However, she purposely starts to brush Lindsay's hair violently as payback for what she did in a previous episode. She wanted to cut her hair with scissors (she says in the confessional), but she only had Lindsay's brush. During the episode, a running gag was shown where she seemed to become obsessed with getting Courtney's hair, calling it "perfect." During the episode, she attempted many times to cut it off. It is, however, unknown what she would do with the hair (she might have made a wig out of it or glued it onto her head). In the duel challenge, Heather faces Beth and since Beth wanted to do one thing that everyone does, make someone get hurt (dropping Heather into the tar when she says let go) and Heather went in the tar. However, luck was on her side when she was presented with a new, red wig that resembles a prehistoric hairstyle. She decides to keep the wig, as it is shown that she is still wearing it in the next episode. Also, in a drastic attempt to regain the same wig that managed to get stolen in the episode, she beats up a bird.

In Million Dollar Babies Heather gets along with everyone, and is appalled to learn the truth about what LeShawna said about her while on her trip to the spa. Heather later admits that she admires LeShawna for "telling it like it is," and that LeShawna is right about her nasty demeanor. Heather faces off against Beth in a badminton match in the third challenge but loses when LeShawna claims that Beth's skills are about as real as her boyfriend, angering Beth and giving her increased stamina. LeShawna apologizes to everyone for her comments in the cheerleading challenge, including to Heather. Heather is then voted off after LeShawna makes up with Duncan and Harold. LeShawna says Heather can call her a friend, as long as she tells no one. Heather then gives LeShawna her wig as a parting gift, "for when (LeShawna) has a hairdo worse than the one (she) has now," and leaves Total Drama Action.

Heather returns in The Aftermath: III, with a new afro wig. In this episode, she shows a whole new side that has never been seen before: an admiration side. Secretly recorded footage shows that Heather had an admiration for Harold's yo-yo skills and secretly she practiced them herself (though was not as successful). Heather however tries to cover herself by saying that footage was altered. While put in the electric chair (the newest tool for the truth game), Heather's lies reveal that she thinks Lindsay is a smart player, Beth's a possible threat, and Courtney is a worthy opponent. She also reveals that her parents tried shock therapy on her in order to make her nicer. In addition to all this, she helped Bridgette to mend her troubled relationship with Geoff by strapping him in the electric chair, with help from LeShawna, Owen, and Bridgette. They finally force Geoff to give up on his self-centered ways (though she said she was proud of him earlier in the episode).

Heather was finally mentioned in Mutiny on the Soundstage by Beth, who said even being with Heather would be better than being alone. She was also mentioned by Duncan who after he kissed a monster, said that he'd rather kiss her again.

In The Aftermath: IV, when asked to speak by Chris, she started ranting on and on about how she should've been in the finals instead of Duncan and Beth, and was rudely blaming everyone else for her misfortune. In both endings of this episode, Heather was surprised along with everyone else about Beth's boyfriend Brady showing up and hugging her. Heather said that not only was he real, but also admitted that Brady is really handsome.

In Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special, Heather has hair back, however it is in a short ponytail, unlike her older hairstyle. After gaining weight, Heather began an internet attack on Gwen. Gwen had begun an internet show with Katie and Sadie attempting to help the environment and talk about her time on Total Drama. Heather, using a Gwen wig and and Katie and Sadie puppets, mocked Gwen and her show. Gwen retaliated by showing secret footage of Heather kissing her pet cat and spreading negative news about her. The two were brought to the Celebrity Manhunt studio for an interview, though after both girls insulted each other, they frustratedly ended up in a fistfight. Heather reunites with the cast at the Red Carpet Show, only to discover that Chris is starting a new reality show. In an attempt to save her fame, Heather teams up with everyone to stop Chris. However, they are stopped when the bus is driven off a cliff. Heather is amongst the teens rescued by Chris, and proceeds to Total Drama World Tour.

Total Drama World Tour
In Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 1, it is made clear that Gwen and Heather still hate each other, and Heather appears to have gotten back to her old cruel self as seen in Total Drama Island. In the jet's cockpit confessional, Heather complains about Alejandro and Lindsay looking like real threats, and states that she can see through Alejandro. However, after Chef interrupts her confessional several times, she storms off. She then explains in the porta-potty confessional, that since she needs an alliance, and since nearly everyone hates her, her only option is to become friends with the "new girl". She tries to interact with Sierra a lot during the episode, she asks her opinion in which way they should go to reach the exit of the pyramid. She teams up with Cody and Sierra to get through the pyramid. In some point of the challenge, Sierra accidentally steps in a trap that shot some spears on them,to which Heather notices and pushes Sierra down,along with herself. Sierra apologizes and Heather, trying to not lose control, accepts her apology with a fake smile. She even hugs Sierra and Cody at the end of the episode in a "group hug", although she seemed too reluctantly to do so. When Cody asks where Gwen is, Heather just looks at him. Heather also claims to recognize Alejandro's tactics during a confessional earlier in the episode and ends up on Team Amazon, along with Gwen, Izzy, Cody and Courtney.

In Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 2, after Gwen talks about how shocked she is about Duncan quitting, Heather tells her that he probably can't sing, where Courtney corrects Heather saying he can do anything. She gets really happy knowing this episode's challenge is a camel race and that they are the only team with a camel. Also, she's the first one to get on the camel ans starts to boss her team remembering that it's a race in order to make them get ready faster. Cody is humiliated by her after he tries to impress Gwen. Heather begins to question herself about Alejandro, saying "he is just so... perfect", but quickly corrects herself. Heather and her team get lost during the challenge, but Izzy's communication with their camel got them to the third challenge. Heather sticks her tongue out at Alejandro, after Chris approved of Sierra switching sides with Izzy, and is shocked when Alejandro blows her a kiss back. After Gwen and Courtney see the benefits of having Sierra on their team, Heather tells them that they should listen to her next time around, but they just laugh at her and tell her that she has to do a lot more to win their trust. Unfortunately she and her team weren't able to put the camel inside, until Alejandro, to make it fair, ordered Izzy to help the other team. Then the camel entered in their canoe and they crossed the Nile river, singing Rowin' Time. Team Amazon was the first team to cross the line and they spent the night in the first class cabin.

In Super Happy Crazy Fun Time Japan, Heather tries to remind Courtney that she isn't the only person in Team Amazon and says that her "friend" Sierra needs to have her opinion considered as well. But right away she almost got sick, after seeing Sierra sniffing Cody's shoe, which made her ask for a barf bag. Heather has a few solos in Before We Die. For the first challenge she suggests Gwen to do it, since, as Heather stated, "Gwen's face could use some remodeling". Gwen just responds asking Heather to put her "witch switch" back to off. Cody and Sierra ended up doing it, but they lost. Because of this, Team Amazon was the last to choose the props, which didn't satisfy the team. While looking for props for their commercial, they catch a brief glimpse Ezekiel's silhouette with glowing red eyes. Team Amazon wonder if it was really him, but he quickly disappears. Noticeably, Heather seemed to be one of the most frightened members of the team at the very sight of Ezekiel. Heather's idea for the challenge was the candy fish swimming in the fish tank, then he breaks out and plays basketball. Gwen and Courtney had different ideas and they start fighting, which ends in the three storming off. Team Amazon wins the challenge, after Cody and Sierra finish the commercial, which contained ideas from the three other girls. Sierra gets really happy with this and orders a group hug, but just hugs Cody, saying "back off" for Heather and the other two girls. Once again, they don't go to the elimination and stay in the winner's cabin.

In Anything Yukon Do, I Can Do Better, Heather is sleeping (and drooling) in the winners cabin. She gets really mad at Chris, when they reach the Yukon, and asks for their jackets, for which he answers that he ordered them and would just be ready in a couple of weeks. During the challenge, Heather and Courtney were the first two of Team Amazon to get across the ice first, but since Courtney's name comes before Heather's name, Courtney pulls the sled, Heather uses a whip on Courtney to make her move faster, also because she thinks it's funny. Heather's team came in last place, but since Bridgette wasn't with Team Victory, Team Amazon came in second place, while Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot came in first.

In Broadway, Baby!, Gwen and Courtney are both willing to vote off Heather when the time comes, so Heather plots to gain Cody and Sierra's trust. Alejandro tries to manipulate her, but she blows him off. Heather also tells Sierra that she thinks that she should decide who goes up first on the ropes to climb the Statue of Liberty. Heather gets the carriage at the top to prove she is a good team member. Later, when Sierra pushes Chris too far, Heather realizes it was Alejandro's doing, and gets revenge by exchanging his team's carriage for a real baby carriage. This won Team Amazon the challenge, and cost Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot the challenge. At the reward ceremony, Heather throws the meat grinder off the plane, despite Courtney's suggestion to keep it.

In Slap Slap Revolution, Heather talks with Sierra, where Sierra tells her that Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot will start having troubles in the competition. Heather beginning to notice that Alejandro is charming LeShawna, and she is disgusted by it. Later, before the meat-grinding challenge, her team (mostly Courtney) are angry at Heather for throwing out the meat grinder in the previous episode, which could have given them the upper hand. Also, due to them running low on meat due to Sierra, Heather has an idea to use the little meat they had, and stomped on it to form a meat-snowboard. It worked, until they went off a ledge and fell down the hill. Once down, Heather tries to warn LeShawna that Alejandro is trying to manipulate her, but she is just ignored. During the first round of the dancing challenge, Heather goes up against Owen, but it is an easy victory for her. In the second round, she goes up against LeShawna, who ends up slapping her in frustration. But she ends up with a bruised eye and missing tooth in the event. After the challenge, and the plane takes off, Heather confronts Alejandro to find out what he was up to, but he does not tell her but only flirt with her, she then storms off anger.

In The Am-AH-Zon Race, Heather is seen in the first class section putting make up on to cover her bruises. Courtney sarcastically remarks that she looks good, while Heather scoffs and shuts her mirror. Heather mockingly asks her what color Cody's underwear is, and Gwen checks. However, Cody doesn't have any underwear on, and she ends up seeing a lot more. After Heather's solo, the Zing-Zings notice her missing tooth. Heather misconstrues their appall as an insult. They brush over some large leaves to reveal a tiki of a goddess with a gold tooth that resembles Heather. The two Zing-Zings give her a gold tooth in place of her recently lost one, pleasing her. Chef finds Team Amazon, but is stopped by Heather who orders him to kneel down before the Zing-Zings. Chef disregards her and slices the ropes which tied Team Amazon, and reveals that the Zing-Zings were two Peruvian actors. Heather is disgusted by the fact that they put a gold tooth in her mouth, and Sierra taunts her. Chef reminds them that they lost the challenge and must vote someone off. Heather notices Gwen and addresses her, and she wakes up and asks if they had won the challenge, giving her angry glares from Sierra, Courtney, and Cody. At the Barf Bag Ceremony, Alejandro appears beside Heather. Less than thrilled to see him, he tells her to cheer up, as her departure will help him in the game. Heather lets him know that she knows of his plans which eliminated both LeShawna and Bridgette. Alejandro admits that even she couldn't resist him if he kissed her, but Heather quickly shoots down the thought. Chris begins the elimination ceremony, He then reveals the votes, which show that Gwen, Courtney, and Sierra all voted for Heather, Heather voted for Gwen, and Cody voted for Sierra. Heartbroken, Sierra sobs, in the confessional, she asks why Cody would vote her, after everything she did for him. Chris then reveals that the elimination was fake and Heather wouldn't be taking the Drop Of Shame. Everyone gasps at this, while in the confessional, Heather swears revenge on both her team and Alejandro.

In Can't Help Falling in Louvre, Heather is first seen teasing Alejandro for his unorganized team, to which he responds that her attempts to insult her team are cute, irritating her. He then points out Sierra, who is crying over a boy and proceeds to drag her out of the economy class by her ponytail. During the statue challenge, she tells Cody to calm Sierra down while the rest of the team looks for the statue pieces. She is upset at Sierra's crying and Cody due to it interfering with the challenge. She talks in Paris and yells at Cody and tells him to take Sierra outside. She argues yet again with Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot that they mixed up their pieces on purpose. But in the end her team ended up winning the challenge, and once again gaining invincibility and being able to stay in the winner's cabin. She is one of the judges in the walk-off challenge. She dislikes Lindsay's design and likes DJ's, but dislikes Gwen as the model, calling her uninspiring and dull amongst other insults. She then picks DJ's design as the best.

In Newf Kids on the Rock, Heather is first seen sneaking around in the vents attempting to sneak back into the losers section, in order to gain information, and form an alliance with DJ. Courtney and Gwen both suspect that her sneaking has something to do with Alejandro, and both girls mock her and accuse her of having a crush on him. After Courtney makes fun of her "dried up, black little heart" lighting up with love, Heather assures her that she does not have a crush on Alejandro, and explains why she is crawling in the vents. She continues on in the vent system, eventually reaching the economy section, where DJ admits that he wants to lose. Shocked, she falls out of the vent in front of everyone, nervously claiming that she just dropped her pen. When the plane crashes and the contestants are tossed out, she grips onto a cushion on one of the first class cabin's sofas, forcing Chef to pull her off the sofa and toss her in the water with the cushion. Heather then rides on the cushion outside on the water, and when she sees DJ almost drowning, she gives it to DJ and then asks for an alliance. Alejandro mocks her strategy, stating that it would have been wiser to give DJ the cushion if he agreed to an alliance in the first place. In the confessional, she admits that Alejandro is "good" and romantically sighs. She then quickly demands for the tape which hinted that she liked him, angrily pulling on the confessional's camera and wondering how to open it. After Chris explains that the contestants must paddle to the East Coast of Canada with boats, Courtney suggests to Team Amazon that they should swim in a "V-Formation", as they'll be faster. Heather agrees, and asks if there are any objections. Gwen is shocked that Heather doesn't have an objection, but Heather states that the only objection she has is to losing. Before all the teams get in their boats, Courtney announces that she'll be at the front of the boat. Heather disagrees, stating that she should get point, though Courtney reminds her that she is a C.I.T., to which Heather angrily says that Courtney is more like a "B-I-T-C", before being cut off by Gwen. Once all the teams get in their boats, Heather abandons her team to help DJ to the surface, and leaves Courtney in charge of Team Amazon. Despite his best efforts, she winds up tricking him into singing a part in Sea Shanty Mix and winning the first challenge for him. When she finds out she has to deal with clams due to coming in last place, she is quickly disgusted and tries to worm her way out of it, as her team is not here. Chris tells her she has to do it by herself, which aggravates her. During the challenge, she manages to get DJ to drink the vinegar. This leads to DJ winning the first part of the second challenge. She also got DJ to win the second part indirectly. Finally, Heather tries to get DJ to win the third part, but DJ doesn't listen to her until Alejandro convinces him to kiss the fish. He does so, and ties with Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot. The rest of Team Amazon show up, discovering that they are in dead last place. Heather angrily questions where Courtney and the rest of Team Amazon were, and just when Courtney is about to blame it on herself, Gwen sticks up for her and states that it was her fault. Heather frustratedly says that she will vote Gwen off, though Chris announces that it was actually a reward challenge, causing Heather to get angry.

In Jamaica Me Sweat, Heather complains about economy section, since the plane is leaking during the rain storm. Heather is among those who screamed when the plane landed in Jamaica. During the cliff dive challenge, when Heather is about to dive off the cliff, when Alejandro compliments her diving form, trying to mess with her head. He catches her off guard with his comment and she accidentally falls flat into the water. When Alejandro pulls Gwen out of the water, Heather runs up to snatch the gold chains from his neck, unconcerned about her injured teammate. Later, Heather worriedly questions Courtney if her lawyers knew the show's contracts and wouldn't allow Chris to kill them. In response, Courtney jokes that her lawyers don't know what the producers put in Heather's contract, causing Heather to give a frightened look, just before their descent onto the bobsled track. Her team ends up winning the challenge, and tells DJ that he had allied with the wrong team, and that he should have aligned  with her team instead.

In I See London..., Heather is annoyed that she has to sit back in the economy class with Team Chris, and is unsure why they are back there since they had won in Jamaica. Heather then becomes annoyed that Courtney and Gwen are bonding over bird poop. She wonders if she is the only sane one left, and confirms it after seeing Sierra typing on her pizza box "computer". On the double-decker bus in London, she asks about Alejandro, who was kidnapped. Heather is worried for Alejandro's safety. Heather spends most of the time being ignored or made fun of by Gwen and Courtney. She forced Gwen to strip down the guard to look for the clue, though then Gwen tricked Sierra into changing the guard. She is picked for the torture device challenge, during which she curses out Gwen for stretching her too hard. She makes Gwen and Courtney go inside the dining room in the next challenge, while she impatiently waits outside. She is alone long enough for Jack the Ripper, (Ezekiel), to capture her. Later, she states that it was silly for everyone to be so worried, which makes everyone glare at her. She is last seen exchanging a smile with Alejandro.

In Greece's Pieces, Heather is paired against Alejandro in a track-running challenge. Heather wins the gold medal for her team when Alejandro becomes too distracted with his bragging. Which lead to a tiebreaker challenge. When Courtney told Gwen she was going to be voted off, for kissing Duncan, Heather told Courtney she had her vote. In the end of the episode heather is shown honestly comforting a crying Courtney on the plane, looking very sympathetic.

In The Ex-Files, Heather is happy that everyone's anger is now directed towards Gwen, instead of her, stating she never felt so safe and after this she thanked Gwen, in the confessional. When trying to find a way to get in the Area 51, a lizard climbs in Heather's leg, which she initially thought it was Cody, but after noticing it was a reptile, all team Amazon screamed and ran away from it. But this led them to get on a mine field. Heather sings "Boyfriend Kisser" with Courtney and they got out of the mine field thanks to Cody using his candy and exploding the mines before they stepped in them. She also goes searching for an alien artifact with Courtney. She gets her head caught in some sort of alien portal machine, and Courtney pulls her out. Heather asks Courtney suspiciously why she broke the portal Heather got her head stuck in, unaware that Courtney was trying to make them lose. Back on the plane, Heather tells Courtney that they need to concentrate on getting the guys eliminated.

As Gwen and Courtney try to get rid of each other in Picnic at Hanging Rock, Heather is left as the decisive vote between both sides (Cody-Gwen against Sierra-Courtney). First Courtney tries to get Heather to her side, knowing her dislike for Gwen is as intense as hers. Heather only agrees if Courtney doesn't throw away the next challenge just to get Gwen eliminated. However, Heather crossed her fingers in the dark, since she didn't trust Courtney's word either. When Alejandro starts flirting with Courtney (according to the guys' plan), Heather instantly suspects about Alejandro's actions and figures out he's drawing a game plan again, so she starts flirting with Duncan as a counter attack. During the emu race, Heather noticed Courtney was going slowly on purpose. She reached the top of her tolerance when Courtney asks her if she didn't have a problem with her flirting with Alejandro. After Heather denies having interest on him, Courtney starts to respond with eager to him, which infuriates Heather and makes her decide to turn against Courtney. Heather again flirts with Duncan, causing Alejandro and Gwen to be jealous (although Alejandro denies believing it since Heather doesn't have passion for false flirting, but starts to doubt shortly after). During the second part of the challenge, Heather responds immediately that she isn't into Duncan, even before Gwen could actually ask, so then Gwen asks her about joining the alliance, to which Heather doesn't think twice and agrees. Heather is the lead singer of We Are Shearing Sheep, with the other members of Team Amazon playing instruments. She fails to catch sheeps at the last track and kept bouncing over the cliff. After Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot wins, Courtney asks if she still has Heather's help, to which she nods, but her look says the opposite. Heather votes for Courtney and the result ends in tiebreaker, which Courtney wins against Gwen.

In Sweden Sour, Heather becomes really jealous with Courtney and Alejandro's flirting. So she decided to flirt with Duncan to get Alejandro jealous. She fights with Courtney at the beginning of the building challenge, and furiously chases Cody with a mallet when she sees he's used their materials to build a giant wooden statue of Gwen's head. In the end, she agrees with Cody and Sierra to vote against Courtney and is angry when Chris says it was a reward challenge.

In Aftermath Aftermayhem, Beth's challenge is to make a haiku out of one of Heather's qualities. After thinking a lot and struggling to find any good qualities about her, Beth finally says Heather has ten toes and is fast in water.

In Niagra Brawls, in the "arranged marriage challenge", after Sierra tries to reject Alejandro for winning him as her "husband", Heather goes up to him and helps him off the ground, pairing herself with Alejandro while they both smile at each other as they walk off. In the first part of the challenge, while Alejandro tries to give Heather directions to get to her wedding dress, Heather complains but eventually gets there. Once she does, Alejandro calls her "Chica" and she complains that he did not give her good directions as he was not quite specific enough. After Alejandro helps Courtney get to her wedding dress, Heather complains in the confessional that Alejandro is supposed to only have one bride, meaning herself with tones of jealousy. When Chris announces that Heather and Alejandro get a head start in the next challenge, Alejandro calls her "Mrs. Alejandro", while Heather calls him "Mr. Heather" in return. As they were about to cross the tight rope, Alejandro calls Heather his "better half" and Heather goes into his arms bridal style with a satisfying smile. Halfway across the rope, Heather and Alejandro fight on who to vote off next and she causes them to fall and lose the challenge, although Alejandro did it on purpose, when he moved his leg off the rope.

In Chinese Fake Out, she decides to try and form an alliance with Cody, by getting rid of Sierra. She starts by advising him to stop being so nice to her so that she stops obsessing over him. In the race up and along the Great Wall, she tries to share the rickshaw with Cody, but Blaineley beats her out. She tries to grab the rest of the transport items, ending up with the wooden sandals. She makes it over the finish line, second-last to finish. In the food challenge, she was eliminated second, after failing to finish the live grub-worms faster than the others, throwing up purposely on Chris' face upon him eliminating her. She spots the cheating of both Blaineley and Alejandro and confronts everyone about it, forcing both Alejandro and Blaineley to compete fairly, which makes them both vomit.

In African Lying Society, Heather insults Alejandro for asking to work with her in the challenge. Later, she confronts a lion and realizes Alejandro stole her tranquilizer balls. She later works with Sierra to try to gain her trust. They accidentally tranquilize Alejandro and Duncan, but are tranquilized by them, also. She later works with Alejandro to lure Ezekiel with Duncan as bait. At the elimination ceremony, she is shocked that Alejandro brings Cody into first class and calls him a rat in the confessional.

In Rapa-phooey!, Heather takes this time to befriend Sierra, due to Cody being in first class with Alejandro. She tries to use "girl power" to persuade Sierra to align with her. During the challenge, Sierra offers to weave an egg basket for Heather, which she readily accepts. The two walk through an underground cave together. Part-way through the challenge, one of Sierra's condor eggs hatches in Heather's hand, revealing a baby condor that resembles Cody. The condor forms a motherly bond to Heather, which makes Sierra jealous. For most of the second half, Heather has Cody Jr. in her hair. This turns out to be a good thing, as it allows her to win the challenge. Sadly, she does get knocked off the nest, knocking one of the giant heads over. She "strategically" chooses Alejandro to join her in first class, due to Sierra still being in the game.

In Awww, Drumheller, she spends most of the episode running from Sierra, who is mad at her due to Alejandro's manipulation. She builds a "Chris-ceratops" in an attempt to suck up to the host, but the winner ends up being determined through contestant voting. Although she tried to vote for Cody's first, the electric chair forced her to truthfully pick the dinosaur she actually preferred: Sierra's dinosaur. She explains her choice, admitting that she's a secret glitter-paste fan. For coming in second, she wins a pick-axe and shifting tray to search for the hidden oil barrels. She finds a barrel due to throwing her axe and piercing it. Before she could dig it up, though, a boulder traps her in her ditch. After much debate, Alejandro decides to free her in exchange for his safety. After Sierra is eliminated due to blowing up the plane, Heather nervously high-fives Alejandro and rushes back to burn the passport votes. She doesn't prevent him from discovering that she voted for him in time, though.

In Hawaiian Style, Heather had no supporters in the peanut gallery so Bridgette forces Blaineley, Leshawna, Justin, and Owen.

In Planes, Trains, Hot Air Mobiles, Heather admits in a confessional that she has to help Sierra because no girl should be bald refrencing her baldness in the first season.

She then argues with Alejandro when he reveal that he knew she voted for him. she continues to argue through her walkie talkie and turns it off in annoyance.
