Bridgette and Courtney

The Courtney-Bridgette Friendship is a friendship betwen the characters of Courtney and Bridgette in Total Drama Island.

Overview


During the beginning of the show, Courtney is shown to only want to win the competition and isn't interested in making friends. However, she is seen to get along with Bridgette, and their friendship escalates to the point that they become best friends before Courtney is voted off. The two team up as friends several times most notably in Up The Creek where Bridgette teamed up with Courtney for the canoe trip and during the the original rowing to Boney Island, Bridgette seeks relationship advice from Courtney, talking to her about how she feels about Geoff. In the episode Haut Camp-ture Bridgette says in the hot tub when they were talking about Duncan that Courtney said he has a really sweet side, which means she must be hanging out with Courtney.

The only notable time in which the two did not get along was in Not Quite Famous, when Bridgette accidentally caused a spotlight to fall on Courtney while the former was doing a handstand on the talent show stage. Courtney avoided getting crushed, but the incident earned her a head injury and her violin was destroyed. Bridgette apologized for the accident and even tried to fix the violin, only so that it could disintegrate in her hands. This sent Courtney into a wailing fit, as she truly treasured her instrument. However, the two made up by the time the talent show began. Also in Sucky Outdoors, Bridgette went out of the tent to go pee and accidentally burned the tent down which made Courtney very upset with her.

Unlike most characters, whom Courtney does not hesitate to criticize for their failures or what she deems as uselessness, Courtney does seem to respect Bridgette. During the talent show in Not Quite Famous, Courtney shows concern for Bridgette before she goes on stage, as she was suffering a stomach ache from eating too many potato chips. Bridgette insisted she was okay, only to end up vomiting on half of the audience while doing her handstand routine. Unlike the other characters, Courtney is not shown to criticize Bridgette for her disastrous performance (which is fairly uncharacteristic of Courtney's usual behavior).

Despite their apparent friendship, Bridgette did not look the least-bit shocked when Courtney was wrongly eliminated in Basic Straining. The reason for this is unknown, perhaps she had seen enough of Courtney's bad side.

No one knows if Bridgette and Courtney are still friends after TDI, as the two teammates have yet to interact, again.
