Heather and Lindsay

This article is about the conflict between Heather and Lindsay.

Early Relationship
In almost all of the episodes leading up to Lindsay's elimination, Lindsay mindlessly follows Heather and is part of her alliance. Lindsay considers herself and Heather best friends. However, Heather knows Lindsay isn't the smartest of the bunch and often takes advantage of her. Lindsay believed Heather respected her, but Heather mentions how Lindsay is nothing but a sheep following her every command.

Things That Triggered Conflict

 * Leading up to Lindsay's elimination, we see many episodes where she is deeply hurt by Heather.
 * Though not very intelligent, we can tell Lindsay is unsettled when Heather makes statements such as that they are 'friends... for now, anyways'.
 * Heather often makes comments in the confessional about Lindsay being dumb, saying she has flip flops with more brains than Lindsay. Lindsay probably was able to catch on to the fact that Heather considered her stupid.
 * Though in later episodes she often forgets who he is, early on (and briefly in Haut Camp-ture), Lindsay is smitten with Tyler. Heather is furious and against this relationship, often hurting Lindsay's feelings as she hurts Tyler physically, an example of this in in Dodgebrawl.
 * Heather grows angry whenever Lindsay shows an independent or rebellious side.

Episodes Conflict Is Expressed In
Finally in That's Off The Chain! does Lindsay literally, and almost randomly, snap. In the Canadian version she is bleeped out and in the American version she calls Heather a handful of kiddy-like insults. In both versions of the episode, Lindsay's hands and their gestures are blurred out. After ending their 'friendship' on a bad note, Lindsay walks the dock of shame and Heather could care less, that is until Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island when Lindsay pairs up with Ezekiel and Beth in contrast to Heather, much to Heather's surprise. Lindsay apparently still holds a grudge at this point and it will be interesting to see if the conflict carries onto even Total Drama Action.
