Alejandro and Courtney



The Courtney-Alejandro Atraction is about the friendship between Courtney and Alejandro. The relationship side to this is one-sided on Courtney's side.

Overview
Courtney had not shown any signs of attraction towards Alejandro until Picnic at Hanging Dork. However, Alejandro has tried to flirt with her in the past. As Team Amazon frayed apart due to the conflict of Gwen and Courtney, Duncan cajoled Alejandro into going after her next to free up his own interest in Gwen; while he did not seem interested at first, Courtney's obsession with losing leads to her easily being susceptible to his charm. Though the maneuver does not go as initially planned, Alejandro and Courtney continue to pursue one another, further frustrating another interested party. Though this finally does lead to Courtney's elimination, it is less due to Alejandro himself as opposed to Heather attempting to free him up from a potential threat to her interest. Ever since Alejandro has flirted with her, Courtney is one of the only three friends Alejandro has.

Greece's Pieces
Alejandro immediately agrees with Courtney after she admits that the birth of the Olympics was in Greece, not Rome. Alejandro starts noticing the tension amongst his fellow contestants and figures out the situation regarding Duncan and Gwen. He makes Tyler reveal Gwen and Duncan's kiss in front of everyone, especially to mess with Courtney and destroy the bond in Team Amazon.

The Ex-Files
Alejandro knows about Duncan being a strong player and Courtney being volatile, so he tricks her into flirting with Tyler to mess with Duncan's head while, at the same time, hurting her own team in the process. Alejandro later flirts with Courtney to throw her off of her game, and to also throw Heather off of her game.

Picnic at Hanging Dork
Alejandro starts to charm her and help her so that it will distract both Courtney and Heather from their game. Courtney falls for Alejandro's charms, using it to flirt in front of Duncan, hoping to make him jealous. She seems to demonstrate this in Shear the Sheep, when she specifically tells Heather that she failed at her chance at Alejandro and that she has a right to go after him for herself. However, Alejandro shows interest beyond the performance when Courtney bluntly tells him she wants to lose on purpose as means to eliminate Gwen. She seems to really be falling for him though, as she asks for Heather's permission before she pursues him any further.

Sweden Sour
Courtney is seen next to Alejandro in the loser's compartment. While they are talking, she giggles and says that she bets that he says that to every pretty competitor, to which he responds that she is the only pretty competitor here. All this flirting makes Heather jealous. He then goes to get her a cookie and she feeds it to him while he is hugging her. When reaching Sweden, he hugs her for warmth and says that it will make Duncan crazy. She then calls him "Ale-hunk-dro". She (along with Heather) admires the shirtless Alejandro as he attempts to pull his team's boat towards open water.

Niagara Brawls
When Alejandro is taken by Heather after Sierra refused him for the marriage competition, Courtney shows extreme jealousy towards her for stealing him. She places her as No. 1 on a to-do list in a confessional. After witnessing Duncan intentionally making Courtney lose her place in the blindfold wedding dress race, Alejandro steals the megaphone away from him to help her get the dress, claiming to Duncan it was "to keep her around to be eliminated later". Courtney becomes further steamed seeing Alejandro sweet-talking Heather at the start of the Niagara Falls crossing.

Chinese Fake-Out
Alejandro helps her during the race despite Duncan advising him against it, forcing her to pay him back later even with her disqualification from failing to complete the Great Wall race. Because of this, she is willing to cheat for him in the eating competition. Courtney was eventually caught by Heather, making Chris force Courtney to wear a dragon mask in order to stop her helping Alejandro. Courtney, along with Blaineley, was soon eliminated in this episode, meaning that Alejandro had caused her to get the boot. However, Alejandro had shown concern towards Heather in protecting Courtney before the elimination, still seeing her as useful while choosing to vote for Blaineley instead.

Awwwwww, Drumheller
Heather refers to Courtney cheating for Alejandro in the previous eating challenge and thinks that if another eating challenge occurs, she can take him down in the finals.

Hawaiian Style
Courtney, along with Tyler, Katie, Sadie and Lindsay go on Team Alejandro. When asked to pick an animal that relates to Alejandro the most, Courtney chooses the jaguar, because he is smart. She volunteers to compete for Team Alejandro for the challenge, in which Courtney surfs in a race against Harold and Blaineley. By reaching her jaguar and placing her lei around its neck before Harold and Blaineley succeed, she wins the challenge and reward: an advantage for Alejandro to use in the finals.

Hawaiian Punch
Courtney roots for Alejandro when he competes against Cody. He chooses her to help him alongside Lindsay both in creating the effigy of Heather during Versus as well as assisting in trying to stop his competitor during the climbing of the volcano. She was later mad that Alejandro didn't win the show as he lost to Heather, or possibly because he kissed Heather.

Walk Like An Egyptian - Part 2
Alejandro tries to flirt with Courtney, although she rejects him by stating she has a boyfriend, so Alejandro countered with calling Duncan a quitter who didn't deserve her. Courtney tries to reply, but starts doubting herself.

The Ex-Files
Alejandro knows that making Courtney flirt with another male competitor will throw her off, leading to her attempt to go after Tyler. After his elimination, Alejandro is seen smirking with Duncan, knowing Courtney has been thrown off the deep end.

Picnic at Hanging Dork
Alejandro only comes up with the idea of flirting with Courtney as a means for weakening all of Team Amazon, with he and Duncan seeing it as a stronger means of tearing them apart than going after Heather. He later fakes a performance with Duncan on Hanging Rock as a means to confuse Courtney off her game, leading to Duncan's fake crying performance to likewise break Gwen and Heather.

Sweden Sour
Immediately after showing him giving cookies to Courtney, Alejandro shows a confessional that he is winning her over with them, and then immediately breaks one showing how he intends to break her. Just before Team Amazon's elimination ceremony, Alejandro convinces Heather that the flirting with Courtney is just to distract and eliminate her.

Awwwwww, Drumheller
Courtney is used as a reference in This Is How We Will End It by Alejandro, implying that he used her to get himself further in the competition without any remorse.

Hawaiian Punch
She was later mad that Alejandro didn't win the show as he lost to Heather and because he kissed Heather.
