Harold and Owen

This article focuses on the interactions between Harold and Owen.

Overview
Owen and Harold's interactions were limited in Total Drama Island, due to being on different teams and Harold's early elimination. However there were several indications that the two were friends. In Total Drama Action, their friendship becomes much more prominent upon Owen's return. However, their friendship gets challenged when Owen is hired by Chris to become a mole, and Harold discovers the truth leading to the latter's elimination. Harold doesn't appear to hold this against Owen in the next season.

At the start of the episode, when Harold enters the Main lodge with a moustache drawn in his face, Owen joins everyone in laughing at him. In the challenge the two were pitted against each other, as the last two standing members of each of their teams. Harold is at first nervous when he realizes he is faced with Owen (as he performed exceptionally well before), however Owen apologizes to Harold wanting to point out that he was just doing it for his team and not because of how he felt towards Harold. Harold gains confidence after this and performs some ninja moves before motioning Owen with a bring-it-on gesture. Owen charges towards Harold and throws three very fast shots at him, but to everyone's surprise he acrobatically evades all of them. Now angered Owen puts a lot of spin behind his final ball and launches it at Harold, but he leans backwards and it passes over him (to everyone's amazement). After returning from a timeout, where the Killer Bass explain to Harold he needs to catch the ball, Owen once again throws a power-shot at Harold, which causes him to smack into the wall. Owen grins in satisfaction, but Harold then holds out his hand and reveals he succeeded in catching the ball. Owen is distraught by this and collapses to his knees, screaming "WHY!?", while Harold is now his team's hero and is carried out on their shoulders.

Not Quite Famous
Owen (along with everyone else) was amazed by Harold's beat-boxing skills and cheered for him, even though they were on different teams.

X-Treme Torture
Owen started choking on a marshmallow, so Harold hit him hard on the back to make him cough it up, but it then hits Heather on the head. At the end of the episode Owen gazes intently when Harold and Leshawna kiss for the first time.

I Triple Dog Dare You
Owen had no problem in accepting the dare to chew Harold's pre-chewed gum, despite Chris's warnings, as he believed it was special since Harold had been keeping it. He complimented the gums taste, especially the crunchy inside, to which the camera switches to the photo of Harold picking his nose.

The Very Last Episode, Really!
Harold was one of the many people who sided with Owen even before his announcement that his party would be on a yacht. Harold cheers for Owen when he won in his ending, and Owen excitedly hugs both Harold and Ezekiel tightly around the neck.

Alien Resurr-eggtion
Both of them (along with Izzy) were reluctant to team up with Heather, but agreed to, so long as she didn't try to form an alliance. They then go and search for alien eggs together.

The Chefshank Redemption
At the start of the episode when the boys discover they have been locked in the trailer, they also realize Owen had been eating the beans the previous night and tried not to wake him as he would immediately start to fart. However their efforts are in vain as Owen awakens anyway and does indeed start to fart, to everyone's annoyance. When Owen tries to squeeze through the roof of the locked trailer Harold tells him he'll never fit. But a determined Owen refuses to give up and says he can if he tries, however Harold bluntly states it had nothing to do with trying as it was a scientific fact. Harold accidentally insults Owen who is quite hurt, but Duncan manages to calm him down. Owen then says he loves all of them and hugs them before farting. Owen then volunteers to be a battering ram, so Harold and the other boys hold him up and do just this.

Masters of Disasters
Harold and the rest of the contestants show concern for Owen when he was sent to the hospital after his jaw was broke by Chef Hatchet and angrily glare at Chris for not caring.

Rock n' Rule
When Owen returns to the competition, he excitedly hugs Harold and Duncan at the same time. After the challenge has ended, Harold tells Owen how he is glad to have him back in the competition, while they are on their way back to the trailer. They also converse with Beth and Lindsay on who to vote off. All of them agree to vote for Duncan, except for Owen due to his friendship with him and still being bitter over Courtney for eliminating him the first time.

Crouching Courtney, Hidden Owen
Owen, now hired to be Chris's mole, has been tasked with stirring up some drama by sabotaging the teams. In the first challenge, Owen is instructed to give one of the team's an unfair advantage. He watches both teams training and takes notes, surprised by Harold's killer left hook. However during the challenge he is unable to decide which team to help as he feels guilty. He warns Harold (and Duncan) about Beth's killer kick, but he's unable to stop himself from giving the girls some information as well.

Having won the first round, the boys move onto the next challenge, in which Chris tells Owen to accompany them and continue his sabotage. When Harold discovers the challenge involves climbing a mountain, he asks Owen to look after his pet snail Leshawna, Jr. for him. Duncan and Harold had ended their usual conflict and had agreed to cooperate, where they both work very well together. Owen has a very hard time trying to break them apart. He tries to convince Duncan and Harold to betray each other, reminding Duncan of how fun it would be to prank Harold, while telling Harold that Leshawna, Jr. is telling him to attack Duncan. After several failed attempts Owen finally sees an opportunity when Duncan finds Harold's attraction to Leshawna funny. He asks Harold to explain what he likes about Leshawna which Harold is happy to do so. However Duncan cannot stop himself from making fun of Leshawna's weight, which finally angers Harold enough for him to punch Duncan, knocking him out. Having finally succeeding in breaking part their truce Owen accompanies Harold for the remainder of the challenge where he steals the bonsai tree from Sasquatchanakwa, however he runs off afterwards leaving Owen to be mauled by the purple yeti. At the end of the episode Owen serves Harold a banquet prepared by the girls.

2008: A Space Owen
Harold noticed that Owen wasn't present when the alarm went off and correctly deduces that Owen was brought back to the competition as a saboteur. He angrily confronts him after the challenge has ended, but Owen farts so much it causes Harold to leave in disgust. At the Award Ceremony, both of them tried to vote each other out, but ultimately it was Harold who received the most votes. As he is dragged to the Lame-o-sine by Chef, Harold continues to attempt to warn the others about Owen's role. In the exclusive clip, Harold expresses his hatred over Owen and his anger that he was still in the competition.

Hawaiian Style
Both of them initially supported Cody, but Bridgette makes Owen and a few others switch to Heather as she had very little fans.
