Everyone and Cameron

This article focuses on the interactions between Cameron and the other 12 contestants of Total Drama: Revenge of the Island.

Overview
Cameron is fairly likeable in personality, and due to his weak physical status, any attempt he makes to participate or win a challenge is often met by encouragement from others, particularly members of the Mutant Maggots. His ingenuity is also seen as an asset, prompting several people to seek an alliance with him. When he is pitted against Lightning in the finale, he easily gains the support of every other contestant except for Jo.

Anne Maria
In Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er!, when Cameron was blown aside by a second explosion, he crashed into Anne Maria’s hair, angering her and prompting her to call him “four-eyes.”

In Ice Ice Baby, Cameron started choking on the hairspray that Anne Maria was obliviously spraying next to him at breakfast. She noticed his trouble and apologized, telling him that at least his lungs were now waterproof.

In Finders Creepers, Cameron found himself constantly trying to get Anne Maria and Mike to stop making out and participate in the challenge, resorting to yelling at them for the first time ever. As Cameron raced ahead towards the skull idol, Anne Maria warned him to look out for the spider, which instantly caught him. In Backstabbers Ahoy!, Cameron rode on Anne Maria’s shoulders in the water-skiing challenge. When she claimed that Zoey was trying to “saber-tooth” their team, Cameron corrected her by saying “sabotage.” After the Maggots won the challenge thanks to Cameron, Anne Maria congratulated him along with all of the others as he was taken away.

In Brain vs. Brain: The Ultimate Showdown, Anne Maria supported Cameron to win just like everyone else. Following the chaos of the monsters being released into the arena, when Ezekiel jumped down into the arena and tried to get a kiss from Anne Maria, Cameron appeared and knocked him unconscious, saving Anne Maria.

B
In Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er!, when Cameron was struggling to stay afloat, B eventually helped him by walking up to shore with Cameron standing on his shoulders. Shortly afterward, when trees in the distance started collapsing as something approached the beach, Cameron jumped onto B’s back as all the contestants ran off, with B carrying Cameron effortlessly to the finish line.

B, along with everyone else, supported Cameron to win in the finale.

Brick
In Finders Creepers, Cameron saved Brick, along with everyone else, from the giant spider when he attacked it out of pure adrenaline. In A Mine Is a Terrible Thing to Waste, when the entire cast found themselves under attack by an army of mutated gophers, Brick saw his former teammates Cameron, Mike, and Zoey being attacked by one of the gophers. Despite his new teammates Jo and Lightning telling him to leave them, he refused to leave any man behind and saved them by knocking out the gopher with his team’s statue. Although this cost his team the challenge and resulted in his elimination (due to his statue breaking), he saved their lives, and after he was placed in the Hurl of Shame, Cameron, Zoey, and Mike all appeared on the Dock to render a final salute to Brick, which Brick returned.

In the finale, Brick supported Cameron to win just as almost everyone else did.

Dakota
In Truth or Laser Shark, Cameron was pitted against Dakota for the final part of the challenge. He eventually managed to defeat her, win the challenge for the Maggots, and more or less caused her elimination that night.

In The Treasure Island of Dr. McLean, Cameron seemed to be more fascinated than horrified at Dakota’s gradual transformation over the course of the episode, thinking of it as a potential magazine cover story and not showing much concern for Dakota. Dakota presumably voted with him and Mike against Scott, but was eliminated when Scott used the immunity idol to save himself.

Along with everyone else, Dakota supported Cameron to win in the season finale.

Dawn
In Finders Creepers, Cameron saved Dawn and the others from the giant spider when he attacked it and destroyed its net.

In Brain vs. Brain: The Ultimate Showdown, Dawn supported Cameron to win against Lightning, and was noticeably frightened when Lightning savagely beat Cameron over the head with a spiked club.

Jo
Over the course of the season, Jo’s strong physical and athletic capabilities against Cameron’s weak abilities made them fierce enemies, in a typical “nerd vs. jock” scenario. However, there are occasions where they admit to having respect for one another, with Jo commending Cameron for winning challenges and Cameron respecting Jo as a leader. However, Jo was the one and only person who did not support Cameron to win in the finale. See Cameron and Jo for more information.

Lightning
Cameron and Lightning initially had little interaction early on due to being on opposite teams. However, through their mutual dislike of Jo, they managed to form an alliance that fell apart into a bitter rivalry, especially when they wound up as the final two. See Cameron and Lightning for details.

Mike
Although Cameron and Mike don’t have much interaction early on, they soon develop one of the strongest friendships in the season. See Cameron and Mike for details.

Sam
Sam, like almost everyone else, supported Cameron to win in the finale.

Scott
In Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er!, when Cameron was frantically trying to stay afloat, Scott swam past him and called him a spaz.

In A Mine Is a Terrible Thing to Waste, although there was little interaction between them, Cameron took note of Scott’s attempts to hinder their team’s progress. At the end of the episode, right before the elimination, Cameron confessed to Mike that he didn’t trust Scott, and wanted to form an alliance against him.

In The Treasure Island of Dr. McLean, Cameron revealed his entire plan to take out Scott: In exchange for helping Mike control his personalities and win over Zoey, Mike would convince Zoey to join an alliance of three to take out Scott. When Cameron managed to trick the giant squid into sending the entire team flying to shore, Scott was noticeably upset with Cameron winning the first part of the challenge, which prevented him from throwing the challenge for the team. When Scott tried to throw the challenge again by stealing the team’s compass and claiming that they were now lost, Cameron outsmarted him once again by using the moss growth in the swamp to find out which direction was north. Scott finally managed to outsmart Cameron towards the end, first by tricking him and the others into digging in the wrong spot, and then by making Cameron accidentally reveal Mike’s multiple personality disorder. Cameron, along with Mike and Dakota, voted for Scott that night, but Scott’s use of the immunity idol saved him and instead sent Dakota home. In Grand Chef Auto, Cameron begged Scott to not tell anyone else about Mike’s multiple personality, as it was intended to be kept a secret. Scott insisted that he wouldn’t tell, saying that he wasn’t a squealer, unlike Cameron.

In Eat, Puke and Be Wary, Cameron told Zoey that they had to vote off Scott soon. Scott eavesdropped on their conversation and threw a lasso around the tree branch they were on, pulling on the rope and breaking the branch. This sent Cameron tumbling to the ground and right into another snare trap set up by Scott, sending him flying all the way back to camp. Later in the challenge, Scott approached Cameron and tried to convince him to vote off Lightning that night, even helping Cameron get some mushrooms down off a tree that was too tall for him to reach in order to gain his loyalty. However, in the eating challenge, Scott tricked Cameron into looking away so that he could switch his disgusting pie with Cameron’s well-baked pie. As a result, Scott easily won the eating challenge and was the only one not fitted with a tracking collar in the next challenge. However, Cameron went on to win the challenge (with help from Lightning), and Cameron and Zoey’s plan worked, with Scott being voted off that night.

Staci
In Brain vs. Brain: The Ultimate Showdown, when all of the monsters were released into the arena and Staci was eaten by the giant Venus Flytrap, Cameron fired a blast from his robotic suit at the plant’s roots, causing it to drop Staci and run off. She, along with everyone else, supported Cameron to win.

Zoey
In Ice Ice Baby, when Cameron was struggling to climb up the mountain, Zoey encouraged him and called him “Cam.”

In Finders Creepers, he saved Zoey, along with everyone else, from the giant spider when he attacked it and broke its web.

In Backstabbers Ahoy!, Zoey congratulated Cameron for winning the challenge for the Maggots, along with everyone else on the team.

In The Treasure Island of Dr. McLean, Cameron pushed Zoey off the raft in order to distract her so that he could yank Mike out of his Manitoba Smith personality. He also tried to get Mike to convince Zoey to vote with the two of them against Scott, but Zoey ultimately chose to stay with Scott and vote off Dakota.

In Grand Chef Auto, as Zoey finished her first tagging and Cameron arrived at the same landmark, she wished him good luck in the challenge. Also, when she fell from the totem pole later on, she landed right on Cameron’s go-kart, which flipped him into the air and caused him to land right on top of the totem pole, inadvertently helping him in the challenge. Towards the end, Cameron finally (albeit accidentally) revealed Mike’s multiple personality disorder to Zoey, helping her to finally realize what was really happening with Mike.

In Up, Up And Away In My Pitiful Balloon, just as Cameron’s rocket crashed into the blimp and sent him plunging towards earth, Zoey saved him by directing her flock of flying goats to fly underneath him, with Cameron landing on one as they passed under. He thanked Zoey as they flew back to the island.

In Eat, Puke and Be Wary, Cameron and Zoey discussed voting off Scott at the beginning of the episode, and possibly convincing Lightning to share their vote, before Scott interrupted them. Their plan eventually succeeded, and Scott was voted off that night. In The Enchanted Franken-Forest, Cameron confessed to Zoey that he was terrified of Lightning, who was determined to beat Cameron as payback for him winning the last challenge. Zoey, however, told him that he needed to toughen up and find the “inner warrior” inside him. Thus, the two of them agreed to form an alliance against Lightning, determined to go to the final two together. At one point, Zoey fended off a furious Lightning when he attempted to attack Cameron, calling him “steak-for-brains.” However, throughout the challenge that day, Zoey often referred to herself only when talking about the win, which caused Cameron to worry that Zoey might abandon him just for invincibility. Similarly, Zoey was annoyed by Cameron constantly reminding her of their alliance, and noted how she was doing all the work and coming up with all the strategies while Cameron did little and repeatedly almost got himself killed. Their arguing continued even as they tried to get the flower from the Venus Flytrap, and as they ran back to the finish line with the Flytrap in pursuit. However, when Cameron was eaten by the Flytrap, Zoey realized that her best friend was in danger, and finally gave up the challenge and attempted to save Cameron. However, this only resulted in both of them getting eaten, and the Flytrap only spit them out after Lightning won and its flower was returned to it. At the elimination that night, Cameron declared that his time had come, thinking that Lightning would vote for him, but Lightning instead voted off Zoey due to her being too much of a threat.

In Brain vs. Brain: The Ultimate Showdown, Zoey rooted for Cameron to win just like everyone else.
