This article focuses on the interactions between Bowie and Priya.

Overview

Bowie and Priya are the finalists of Total Drama Island (2023)

Due to spending the season on opposing teams and on opposing alliances, Bowie and Priya naturally acknowledge each other as enemies. Their rivalry gets increasingly intense throughout the season, which culminates into the two being forced to cooperate and directly battle each other on occasion. In Caved by the Bell, Bowie forms a short-lived agreement with Priya to team up against a common enemy. In his pursuit for the crown, he doesn't hesitate to direct his schemes to Priya next, solidifying their conflict. In Magma Cum Laude, both of them end up as the final two due to their respective skills and Millie's desperation to get Priya to forgive her. They do not interact much in Total Drama Island (2024) due to being on separate teams and Bowie being eliminated early into the merge, but it is shown Priya still doesn't hold a high opinion of him, though Bowie doesn't appear to hold a grudge against her on his end.

The Launchback of Notre Game

Paddle Field Earth

They don't interact in this episode, but at the elimination ceremony, Priya and Bowie both vote against each other, along with their alliances, due to them being strong competitors.

Caved by the Bell

Bowie tries to compliment Millie and Priya, but they know why he’s really here.

Bowie and Priya have a proper on-screen interaction when Bowie decides to join she and Millie's super alliance in secret to eliminate Julia. Bowie approaches the alliance with faux formalities, and Priya just cuts to the chase, pointing out Bowie's true intent of chatting with them. Bowie gasps and playfully asks if mind reading is one of their powers. Bowie then states that what Priya acknowledged is a good point, he is not Julia. During the challenge, Priya and Bowie have an argument or two about their cooperation to make Julia fail miserably. Bowie is angry at Millie and Priya for collecting a singular token and demands they collect more.

Once Julia is successfully eliminated by their team-up, Bowie's plan comes into action when he plants Millie's notebook on Priya's bed. Priya is now furious at Millie for what she wrote about her and her family in her notebook, all the while an amused Bowie eavesdrops on their argument. After hearing the results of the crumbling friendship he caused, Bowie is surely confident that he's going to be a millionaire.

The alliances run into each other.

Bowie hands the besties back their bag, and tells them it is imperative that they find tokens.

Magma Cum Laude

Bowie and Priya are cooperative rivals.

During the second-to-last challenge, Priya hops onto Bowie's log to be safe from the lava. Bowie tells her to get off; she refuses and challenges Bowie to a duel. Bowie and Priya have a sword fight with their gondolier poles. Bowie ends up having a decisive victory at the last second, about to push her into the lava. Priya fearfully asks Bowie to team up with her to eliminate Millie. Bowie mocks the idea and believes he could handle Millie on his own. She manages to hit Bowie where it hurts-his ego-by claiming he's scared to face her one-on-one; therefore, Bowie agrees to eliminate Millie first, then Priya. They team up and row together, then decide to pole vault to the finish line. Bowie and Priya prove just how formidable they are as a team, with their mutual training for Total Drama keeping them on a similar athletic wavelength for this challenge. Millie didn't stand a chance. It was later revealed that Bowie tore out the last page from Millie's notebook about Priya so he wouldn't risk letting Priya see it before the challenge.

During the final challenge, Priya accidentally trips over her goats before Bowie and his goats run her over. Bowie, confident of winning, mockingly says bye to Priya. Despite losing to Priya, Bowie is seen happy for her when she receives the last marshmallow, proving himself to be a graceful loser.
