Trent

Trent, labeled The Cool Guy, was a camper from Total Drama Island on the Screaming Gophers team. He is currently a cast member on Total Drama Action on the Killer Grips.

Total Drama Island
Trent is a casual musician who everyone is friends with. When Trent isn't playing music, he is seen working on motorcycles (though he never made it to the motorbike challenge). His dream is to one day have his own motorcycle shop. Although his dad wants him to be an accountant, Trent says no to it. It has been hinted in the series that he has a huge crush on Gwen. His feelings are revealed when he sings a love song to her in Not Quite Famous. He is also seen snagging Gwen a extra muffin occasionally. Trent and Gwen start to become a couple thanks to Cody setting them up in a canoe together. Trent and Gwen work their way into a couple, eventually Gwen kissed Trent when he helps her get around a skunk obstacle. Trent says in a confessional that he loves how Gwen is independent and smart. Their relationship, however, is severely damaged in Search And Do Not Destroy when Heather tells Trent that Gwen is only using him to get along in the game and kisses him right in front of Gwen, whom received a note telling her to be there from Heather, though she signed as Trent to fool Gwen. (This event causes the two to lose trust in each other). The relationship is damaged even more when LeShawna convinces everyone to vote Trent or Heather off (not realizing what really happened until it is too late), however, Heather had invincibility this day and any votes going to her were not counted, therefore making Trent walk the Dock of Shame even though it's possible he got less votes than Heather. Trent then told Gwen to keep going and he would be watching and cheering her on, Trent is then put on the Boat of Losers and shipped off. Trent plays a pivotal role in the final episode. Gwen seems to not trust him anymore (despite seemingly understanding what happened with Heather), as a result Trent acts as Gwen's main supporter trying desperately to win her back. He follows her around the trail and helps her around the obstacles. By the end of the race, Gwen starts to trust him again and even says she will go out with him. The two are then invited to Owen's big party.

Total Drama Action
Although the couple starts out strong at first, an unexpected twist occurs when he and Gwen win the challenge in Alien Resur-eggtion; their win means that the two of them will be in charge of picking out members for the two teams, which forces Gwen and Trent to compete against each other. Trent becomes very upset and jealous because of Gwen and Duncan having so much in common, making him and Duncan newly enemies this season. Although he initially shared a bunk with Owen, his currently sleeping situation is unknown.

Due to the winning the challenge of Alien Resur-eggtion, Trent becomes the founder of the Killer Grips team. In Riot on Set, he picks Lindsay, Justin, Beth, Owen, and Izzy to be his teammates. Because he was still jealous of Gwen being close to Duncan, Trent made a point to pick "the beautiful" Lindsay as his first teammate in an attempt to make Gwen jealous of him. The two were able to make up by the end of the episode.

During the sand castle building part of the challenge in Beach Blanket Bogus, Trent named his team's sand castle after Gwen. She found it a little disturbing, although she was comforted by the fact that Trent did everything in nines (like putting nine flags on his sand castle), saying that at least he wasn't as obsessed with her as with his obsession with the number nine. Duncan told Gwen that there were five letters in Trent's name and four in Gwen's, adding up to nine. Harold said that Trent's obsession with the number nine started after he first became interested in Gwen. The next part of the challenge required the teams to select a team member to compete in a dance contest. The Screaming Gaffers chose LeShawna, and the Killer Grips chose Trent (on the condition that the other Killer Grip members said his name nine times). Trent threw the challenge so Gwen wouldn't be disappointed from losing (this was a non-elimination challenge, anyway). Gwen then said that she liked Trent a lot, but didn't want to be responsible for his mental distress. After Trent told her he threw the challenge, Gwen and Trent kissed (off-screen).

Audition tape
In his audition, Trent sings a song while playing the guitar in a recording studio. He later then says "Ah, crap." after a string broke.
