Lindsay and Tyler



The Lindsay-Tyler Relationship is the romantic relationship between Lindsay and Tyler. Despite Tyler not competing in Total Drama Action, Lindsay has mentioned him in several episodes (though occasionally by the wrong name) in Total Drama Action. They are the only couple so far to not have broken up any time in the series.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 1
Tyler and Lindsay first met when Lindsay begins to scream in fear of a cockroach in her cabin, which Duncan comes in to kill, using a hatchet. Tyler leans in and tells her to let him know if she ever sees another cockroach, since he "could do that too." This phrase is commonly used throughout the rest of the series, as Tyler would like Lindsay to like him more than she does already. Lindsay smiles and makes her big puppy-dog eyes in response, to which Duncan responds by rolling his eyes and muttering that girls like Lindsay "always go for the jocks". Tyler and Lindsay are also shown standing next to each other in the lunch queue the scene after and she was actually looking at him.

Not So Happy Campers - Part 2
When Courtney suggests voting Tyler off after the Killer Bass lose the first challenge Lindsay, overhearing this from the Screaming Gophers table, stands up to scream in protest of the suggestion. Her team stares at Lindsay, so she hastily covers up her emotional outburst by explaining that this was due to there being no salt at the table. Tyler smiled quickly when Lindsay objected, but his smile faded once he noticed she was protesting about salt.

The Big Sleep
Heather initiates the first Total Drama Island alliance and recruits Lindsay and Beth into said alliance. Lindsay turns around in Tyler's direction after she is explained the process and confides in her new alliance-mates that she finds Tyler to be really cute. Heather then forbids her date him with the reasoning that it is against the alliance rules to become involved with someone from the opposing team. Lindsay is left by herself, looking sad. Tyler then looks over at her and waves with a smile. Lindsay smiles back and later justifies in the confessional stall that although Heather said she couldn't date him, she never said she couldn't like him.

Dodgebrawl
When Lindsay gets out in the dodgeball game and walks back to the benches, Tyler waves at her and she waves back until it catches the attention of Heather (who then throws a ball at Tyler). Later, Tyler hits Lindsay in the face with a dodgeball by accident. Upon noticing, he screams out and runs to help her up. When she recovers, he tells her that she still looks great (even though her face is bruised) and then asks Lindsay if she wants to go for a walk and the two walk off. When Heather later comes to find them, she catches them under the dock by Lindsay's giggling. Since then, they had been meeting in secret because Heather didn't want Lindsay seeing Tyler and Courtney didn't want Tyler seeing Lindsay. At this point, both teams were afraid that Tyler and Lindsay would give away each other's team's weaknesses, giving the opposing team the upper hand. Lindsay would commonly bail on her alliance duties to be with Tyler, despite Heather's objections.

Not Quite Famous
Lindsay blows Tyler a kiss across the stands. Tyler catches it and winks at her. Lindsay smiles and points affectionately to him, but notices that Heather has been glaring her, so she nervously puts her hands behind her back, only to get smacked in the face with Heather's ponytail.

Later on, Lindsay is assigned to watch Gwen to make sure she isn't up to something. Lindsay becomes bored with her task very quickly and through the binoculars, sees Tyler, who is being constricted by a yo-yo. She takes special attention to his butt. Eventually, Lindsay pursues Tyler and they end up being tied up together, making out in the bathroom where Heather and Courtney aren't looking.

Later that day, Bridgette attempts to handstand for 20 minutes, but her stomach becomes uneasy and she begins to barf everywhere. She then slips and lands in Tyler's arms. Lindsay runs in from the side and screams at Bridgette to "puke on her own boyfriend," obviously jealous at the scene even though there were no romantic implications whatsoever between Bridgette and Tyler. Although she is caught by Heather in the act, Lindsay quickly amends her previous statement by claiming that she never even said the word "boyfriend." This, however, reveals that Lindsay has broken the alliance rules by becoming Tyler's girlfriend and seeing him on the side.

Lately when Heather reads Gwen's diary as her "talent," Heather reads out Gwen's description of Trent as "McHottie" at which point Lindsay gasps as she thinks Gwen's diary entry is about Tyler.

Phobia Factor
When Tyler is voted off, Lindsay doesn't take it as hard as most couples did all she did was blow him a kiss, then she accidentally messed up his name, calling him Taylor before quickly correcting herself. However, Lindsay doesn't mind good-byes as much as the others, because she knows she'll see her friends again (as shown in Rock n' Rule when Lindsay tells Beth "Well, don't worry! Saying bye isn't so bad. Because, really it's just a Hi with a B"). She is also the one who is never upset about anyone leaving. Tyler however was seen crying on the Boat of Losers.

Haute Camp-ture
When Lindsay is voted off the island and goes to Playa Des Losers they continue their relationship again. Tyler is seen with Lindsay sitting on his lap at the beginning of the episode, while they are being interviewed by Chris. Lindsay talks about how it's great to be with Tyler again, though she's still confused to which camper is Tyler. They are also the only couple to never have a real conflict in their relationship, most likely because of how they haven't spent as much time together as the other couples so far.

Later, when the eliminated campers are sitting together by the pool to vote off someone, they are seen holding hands.

The Very Last Episode, Really!
In a wide-screen shot of everyone celebrating Owen's win, Lindsay and Tyler can be seen kissing in the background. When everyone waits for Chris to give Owen the last marshmallow, Lindsay and Tyler can be seen smiling at each other. Also in the alternate ending where Gwen wins, Lindsay cries on Beth while Tyler unhappily watches Lindsay.

Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island
In the special Lindsay and Tyler are one of the couples (others being Izzy and Owen and Harold and LeShawna) not to pair up with each other whether it be by themselves or with someone else. Whilist the couple do not interact, at the beginning Tyler nearly drowns in the pool in front of Lindsay, yet DJ is the one to try and save him. However, Tyler ends up saving DJ instead. It is possible Tyler was trying to get Lindsay's attention.

Tyler sadly watches them, and tells DJ that "Lindsay's supposed to like me!" suddenly getting protective of Lindsay. Tyler then calls out to Lindsay and tells her he can do a handspring, then fails miserably. Lindsay feels sorry for him, until she accidentally calls him Alejandro (probably because she find's Alejandro attractive and is talking to him at the time). Later, Tyler follows Lindsay to the pyramid, but starts to regret not going with the others and going under the pyramid. Lindsay replies telling Tyler that Alejandro's doing alright and looks like a cute mountain goat. Tyler then tries to impress her saying he can be a goat, but Alejandro helps Lindsay and Bridgette get to the top of the pyramid. Tyler looks really upset and attempts to follow, calling for Lindsay to wait but fails to follow them because he fell down the pyramid, due to being stung by a scorpion, then knocked down by Bridgette later on. Both of them end up on different teams, making them the only couple to be on different teams in every season they both compete in.

Interestingly, the rest of Tyler's group is sitting at the opposite end of the room on another table with each other, and Tyler the only one not on Lindsay's team sitting with them.

A little later on, during the first part of the challenge, Tyler begins to get annoyed with Lindsay forgetting who he is and even calling him "Noah", Tyler then tries to correct her, telling her "Hi Tyler" to which she replies "No, It's Lindsay!" thinking that he's gotten her name wrong. The camera zooms in to show how upset Tyler is by this. In Tyler's Confessional, it's notable that he says "worst of all" on the plane flight Lindsay called him Noah, showing Lindsay matters to him more then the fact he's not got many fans.

Both were the only ones in their teams to question whether the sound they heard was an alligator in the sewage.

Slap Slap Revolution
When Lindsay waves to Tyler and says "Hi Daryl!", Tyler already had enough and tries to convince Lindsay that they went out during Total Drama Island but she says that he is confusing her with someone else and sadly states that the only person she was ever into on the show was Tyler, who was "never coming back". During the song Eine Kleine, Lindsay finally remembers Tyler and the excitment causes him to scream with joy (if you look in the background as he does this, you will notice the clouds are pink and shaped like hearts) and cause an avalanche. Lindsay later tells LeShawna and DJ in excitement that Tyler is back, even though he was there the whole time.

In the economy section, Lindsay was waving at Tyler when Tyler told Noah that lower class has "some perks".

When Chris is on the walk-talkie with Gwen, Tyler picks up their conversation, and Lindsay, hearing Tyler is there, shouts down Chris's walkie-talkie, "Hi Tyler!". Tyler also walks up and waves at her. In the end, Lindsay is seen with DJ in the first class cabin. She asks him if she could invite Tyler to join them, and he agrees. She then goes to get him.



Can't Help Falling in Louvre
Lindsay tells DJ how she can't wait to see her boyfriend, but before she can say his name, DJ tells her "his name's Tyler" to which Lindsay replies happily that she knows.

When the two meet once the place crashes in Paris, Lindsay tells everyone there's only one guy she wants to share this with, and that's Tyler, who she's "been dreaming about since they've been apart". Tyler then appears and greets her, to which she questions whether it's Tyler, telling him he looks different in her head. Lindsay then questions whether he always wears a tracksuit, but then says it doesn't matter, because now they're in Paris "can only mean one thing!". Tyler then starts to say "I know, I love-" before Lindsay cuts him off and screams "SHOPPING!" and that she'll get to buy new clothes for him (He was gonna say that he loves her). Later, once all the teams are outside, Tyler asks Lindsay if she's okay carrying the pieces of statue on her own, then asks where DJ is. When Team Victory lose and Lindsay and DJ have to have a walk-off, Lindsay straight-away chooses Tyler as her model. Tyler doesn't like the hairstyles she gives him, telling her about what his hockey team will do once they see him, and Lindsay asks him whether her top is "manly" enough for him, stating she could use his support on this. Tyler doesn't look too happy about modeling, but Lindsay claps enthusiastically for him. When Lindsay's design loses, so Tyler goes to say good-bye to her and reassures her those Judges wouldn't know fashion if it smacked them in the head, to which Lindsay compliments him back "even if he's a bad walker". Tyler boasts how at least his hockey team saw him with a "cute girlfriend for 20 minutes". Lindsay calls him nice, and then asks for one quick kiss before she goes, but Chris stops them and says that they are running out of time. Lindsay stops at the doorway and tells Tyler before she jumps to "win for us", and once more tries to blow him a kiss, but Chris stops her, complaining about the time again.

Aftermath: Revenge of the Telethon
When introducing Lindsay, Geoff mentions that she could not remember who Tyler was for six episodes. After everyone got attacked by animals, Lindsay was looking around, asking where Tyler was, while a monkey kept jumping and hitting her head, but she seemed to not even have noticed it.

Surprised but not willing to betray Lindsay, Tyler just said, "I will never do that to my Lindsay," implying that he still loves her.

Aftermath Aftermayhem
When Tyler injured himself, Lindsay called out his name in concern screaming, "Oh my gosh, Tyler!", even remembering his name some episodes later (LeShawna even bet with Trent that she would remember Tyler's name this time). While sitting next to each other, Lindsay puts her arm around Tyler. During the second chance board game, one of Lindsay's challenge was to eat peppers with milk while watching funny clips all without laughing.

In the begining of the episode they are seen making out, and for the rest of the episode they are standing next to each other.

Camp TV
During the show's beta phase, when it was still called Camp TV, Lindsay and Tyler were both characters still present at this stage. While Lindsay had very few physical changes between then and the present, Tyler's design got a complete overhaul. Nonetheless, they were both still depicted as being in a steady relationship, meaning it is the only relationship that remained the same in both Camp TV and Total Drama Island. Their relationship is like Geoff and Bridgette's, because they are seen making out a lot. They are also seen kissing when they are together in tug-of-war.
