Heather and Owen

The Heather-Owen Conflict article is about the major conflict between Heather and Owen that mainly occurred in the first season.

Overview
Heather constantly mocks Owen's appearance, obesity, personality, lifestyle, and relationships. Also, Owen is known for being one of the friendliest campers, while Heather is known for the exact opposite. This conflict was sparked by the Heather-Izzy Conflict, but their conflict has began to simmer down ever since the end of Total Drama Island.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 2
Although Owen hugs Heather after winning in this episode, Heather is disgusted by it because Owen was naked at the time.

The Big Sleep
When Owen is tired, due to the twenty mile race, and complains about having a "condition," Heather passes by and tells him that it's called over-eating and to "look into it".

Not Quite Famous
Owen tried out for the talent show by burping the entire alphabet in one go. Heather told him that he wouldn't be doing that in the talent show, due to how disgusting it was. She was even more upset (and possibly scared) when Owen also mentions that he can fart to tune of "Beethoven's 5th," by Ludwig van Beethoven. This talent was rejected, too, almost immediately.

The Sucky Outdoors
Owen begins to brag about him and his grandfather's past experience with a bear. He claims that both of them killed a bear that was 10 feet tall. Heather begins to doubt Owen, believing that he wasn't capable of doing such a thing. Later, Owen talks to Izzy about how funny it would be if the campers would make bear sounds and a bear actually come to their campgrounds. Throughout this episode, a bear did come to terrorize the campers, and Heather easily blames Owen for it. Unfortunately, a real bear ends up coming to the grounds, and Heather blames Owen again. The next morning, both teams realize that they have made it through the challenge of spending the night in the woods. As both teams rush back to the Total Drama Island campgrounds, a portion of The Killer Bass make it before the Screaming Gophers do. Heather, thinking that the entire team beat her team back to the campgrounds, blames Owen for their "loss," and then pushes him down; when, in retrospect, wasn't a real loss at all, considering the Killer Bass were missing two people from their team.

Up the Creek
The challenge objective of this episode was to take a navy field trip to Boney Island, portage their canoes, and make it back to the campgrounds before the other team. Everyone on each team paired or got into groups of three, everyone but Heather, who has to pair up with the only person left. As Owen approaches Heather, she shoots him a bad look. As DJ and Geoff begin to talk about Geoff's love life, Heather and Owen pass them. Owen makes a remark towards Heather, who took it the wrong way, and smacks him with an oar used to paddle.

If You Can't Take The Heat...
Heather partially blames Owen for their progress in the challenge up to a point. She had sent Owen to get oranges for the challenge dinner. Throwing them at an unready Trent, they crash into his face, knocking him out of the challenge. When getting these oranges, Owen meets some bees that quickly become his enemies. In a later spin of events, Heather needed her makeup bag for certain reasons. Owen feared going out there because of the bees again, but Heather forces him. When Owen ate the ribs intended to be the main course of the dinner, Heather partially blamed him for causing them to lose the challenge. However, she did not vote him off that night, instead voting for Beth.

Basic Straining
During the final challenge, Heather gets crushed by Owen when falling out of the tree. Heather insults him by calling him out of his name, concerning his weight.

X-Treme Torture
Heather calls Owen a "marshmallow-eating goof" when Owen complains about the shower reward of this episode's challenge. After being threatened by her, Owen starts choking on a marshmallow, causing Heather to run away. As Harold saves his life, Owen spits out the marshmallow and accidentally nails Heather with it.



Brunch of Disgustingness
Heather, along with all the other girls, were angered to lose their chances at the spa reward, due to Owen winning the final tie-breaking challenge for the guys.

Hide and Be Sneaky
When Heather found out about The Guys' Alliance, Heather believed that the girls should also vote together, and supported the idea of booting Owen, calling him weird.

That's Off the Chain!
Owen laughed at Heather and supported Lindsay when she swears at Heather for lying to her.

Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
While in the confessional, Heather assumes she is the favorite to win the season because of the remaining people on the island. As she names them off, she gives them their usual nicknames that she usually says. When she names Owen, she calls him a "Fart Machine."

Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon
Along with Up the Creek, this episode is one where Heather and Owen have the most interaction due to being handcuffed together for the challenge. During the first of three challenges, Heather and Owen win against the teams of Gwen and Geoff, and Duncan and LeShawna when Heather stuffs all of the food in Owen's face. Heather tries to act nice, showing affection towards Owen and telling him how great they are as a team. This niceness doesn't last long when Owen needs some "teamwork" in the bathroom and asks Heather how good she is with toilet paper. Owen runs all the way to the bathroom, farting with every step, dragging Heather into each fart on the ground. Heather then calls Owen revolting afterward and says that, if she could, she'd file a restraining order on him.

During the third challenge, campers are to rearrange wooden heads of the other campers in which they were eliminated. When Owen finds Justin's head and begins talking about how he is "smoking hot" and about his "chiseled features", Heather is becomes freaked out at his actions. Later, Heather finds Izzy's wooden head in the pile, and begins to talk negatively about Izzy, calling her crazy and a threat to sane people. Owen angrily asks her to stop talking about Izzy since they have a "very" good relationship. When Heather continues to talk, Owen becomes furious and almost eliminates them from the challenge by dragging Heather to Chris in order to get the wimp key. They never make it though when Duncan and LeShawna had already won. After the challenge, in the confessional, "ever-so-happy" Owen (with Heather still handcuffed to him) finally snaps and viciously curses at Heather about her ways with everyone. Heather was impressed by his outburst, but told him never to do it again.

This is the episode that marks the point where Owen and Heather become mortal enemies, as Owen usually tolerated her and everyone else before this point, but he now decides who he can trust and who is a "cold hearted meanie".

Camp Castaways
Heather believes that Owen had completely lost his mind this episode.

I Triple Dog Dare You!
During the beginning, in the confessional, she repeats most already said insults on him, and his weight. Most of the dares that Heather had to do were in relation to Owen's body: first, the armpit by Duncan, and then the belly button while eating grape jelly by Tyler. As Owen tries to apologize for this, Heather repeatedly tells Owen to shut up. Later, Gwen and Owen team up against Heather in this episode to get her eliminated, and ultimately they succeed at doing it. Owen and Gwen were so ecstatic, they got up and cheered when she lost. Even though considering this, Owen still waves her goodbye at the end.

Alien Resurr-eggtion
When Heather suggests that she, Izzy, Harold, and Owen team up to find the alien eggs, Owen immediately questions if that means forming an alliance, to which Izzy adds that they don't like her. Owen only agrees to tag along after Heather assures them that she does not wish to form an alliance with any of them.

Dodgebrawl

Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon
Heather and Owen were cooperating the most in the first challenge. When they succeeded, Heather was very grateful. Owen happily shared the work with her. Heather helped Owen push the canoe by telling him it was a truck full of donuts. During the canoe trip, Heather said she didn't care what Owen was saying while avoiding hurting his feelings. They also cooperated well when Owen agreed to carry Heather through Boney Island on his back.



The Very Last Episode, Really!
Heather supported Owen during the final challenge, though this may have only been a default choice, since Heather didn't like the other finalist.

Trivia

 * Both supported each other to win a season: Heather in Total Drama Island because of her hatred for Gwen, and Owen in Total Drama World Tour because Bridgette told him to switch from Cody to Heather, due to Heathers lack of supporters.
 * In challenges that involved canoes in Total Drama Island, Heather and Owen were always partnered together.
 * Both have shown a form of nudity (Owen several times through the series, and Heather in X-Treme Torture and 3:10 to Crazytown).
 * During I Triple Dog Dare You!, Heather had to accomplish two dares regarding Owen's body (lick his armpits and eat jelly from his belly button).
 * The first two Total Drama Action Aftermaths each had two main guest contestants. Had there been only two guests at the third Aftermath, Owen and Heather would have been them (as Leshawna was eliminated after Heather).
