This article focuses on the interactions between Beth and Lindsay.
Overview[]
Beth and Lindsay become friends fast during Total Drama Island while they are members of Heather's alliance. Despite getting along, Lindsay is forced to eliminate Beth, as the latter left the alliance. Both are brought together through Heather, whom they now mutually dislike. In Total Drama Action, the two of them often do many things together, as well as squeal when they are excited. Both also fall for Justin's charm, despite being in a relationship. Under his influence, they once again enter another alliance and become the pawns of another antagonist. However, the two of them eventually break free of his control and make it far on their own merits. Lindsay is one of Beth's most prominent supporters in the finale and hang out after the season concludes. Their interactions on-screen die out after Total Drama Action, mainly due to Beth not qualifying for either Total Drama World Tour or Total Drama All-Stars.

After a while, Beth snaps and shoots Heather with her paintball gun (along with Leshawna) and is officially considered out of the alliance. Although not confirmed, it is very likely that Lindsay was forced by Heather to vote for Beth when their team lost the competition.

Beth manages to avoid elimination in this episode as Cody is voted out due to his serious injuries from a bear.

Lindsay mishears Beth and thinks she mentioned Tyler, to which Beth explains Tyler isn't competing this season. Lindsay then thinks she has a "dental" block, leading Beth to cautiously back away, astounded by her idiocy.

During the prison food challenge, Beth accidentally causes Lindsay to throw up when she puts her puke-covered retainer back in her mouth after Gwen had just puked it up. Lindsay does not hold this against her, even though they lost the first round. They presumably told Gwen to vote herself off alongside Justin that night.

The first challenge of the episode involves one contestant to portray a killer, and the others to play the part of screamers. Izzy and Justin want to play the part of the killer, but Lindsay demands that it be Beth as she will be useless as a screamer.

However, she ends up peeing herself and screams again, winning this part of the challenge for her team.

Beth and Lindsay combine their burritos together for the "competition" Duncan held at the beginning of the episode, as a way of emphasizing their friendship to win the contest. The two sit by each other when they are both eliminated from the challenge.

Both of them showed no emotion to Justin being eliminated in that episode, preferring to play with the now-rechristened Princess Beth doll.
Get a Clue[]
Beth and Lindsay's friendship goes through a few difficulties in this episode. During the first part of the challenge, Beth sides with Courtney as the castmates attempt to crack Chris's clues, speaking condescendingly about Lindsay.

Beth does, however, feel a little guilty for taking advantage of Lindsay during the DNA collection challenge. When Lindsay was at the movies with Duncan, she does slightly regret not taking Beth instead, since they would at least have conversations. Beth was a little disappointed that Lindsay did not choose her to go to the movies, but was not angry with her as she reveals that watching Courtney's jealousy is more entertaining.

Beth confronts Lindsay and tells her that she blames herself for getting her eliminated. However, Lindsay remarks that friends were worth far more than money.
