This article focuses on the interactions between Courtney and Heather.

Overview[]

CourtneyTorturesHeather

Courtney makes fun of Heather while she's stretched on the rack in I See London...

Despite Courtney and Heather placed on opposing teams in Total Drama Island, the two have a strained relationship from nearly the beginning, and this tension only intensifies throughout Total Drama Action. It is not until the two are placed on the same team in Total Drama World Tour that they really begin to clash. Initially, Courtney intends to join Gwen in voting Heather off, but after Gwen kisses Courtney's boyfriend Duncan, Courtney temporarily enlists Heather's help in voting Gwen off. Heather turns on Courtney when she begins attempting to throw their team's challenges and becomes involved with Heather's love interest, Alejandro.

In Total Drama All-Stars, the two don't have many interactions at first since they join different teams once more, but as soon as Courtney moves to the Villainous Vultures, their conflict reignites though not as intense as their previous seasons. In particular, Courtney is willing to team up with Heather in order to get rid of Gwen, whom the former still helds a grudge at. Knowing she cannot be trusted, Heather pretends to agree to Courtney's offer to get rid of their mutual enemy. However, any plans the two girls attempt to carry out is not fulfilled as Heather is eliminated shortly after Courtney switches teams.
