Bow/Relationships

This page is about the relationships and interactions between Bow and the other characters.

Apple
Main article: Apple and Bow

Bow and Apple started out as rivals, presumably because Marsh and Bow were fast friends and Apple hated Marshmallow. It is unclear when Apple stopped disliking Bow, but posts Bow made during the 2017 Bow Twitter takeover imply that Bow continued to dislike her until Apple had been living at Purgatory Mansion for some time. As of Snow Bow, the two are shown to be good friends.

Balloon
Because Balloon was eliminated several episodes before Bow debuted, the two did not interact in Season 1. However, Bow was somehow on Team Chickenleg, but was after Balloon's elimination, in Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow calls Balloon "boring and nice" and pops him using her possession power. In Stranded in Paradise, Balloon gets shocked when Bow came back to life.

Baseball
Bow and Baseball did not interact in Season 1, but in Journey Through Memory Lane/Part 2, after Taco kicked Bow to not fight with her more, Bow is flinged and kicks Baseball out of the bleachers, in Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow possesses Baseball, causing him to scare Nickel.

Bomb
In Double Digit Desert, Bow and Bomb won immunity and a trip around the world. They took pictures together that were shown in Aquatic Conflict. However, the two have not interacted other than that due to Bomb's early elimination.

Cabby
In The Shame of the Name, Bow became a member of Cabby's alliance, but admits to being a little bit afraid of her.

Bow is a fascination to Cabby, because she came back to life for Inanimate Insanity Invitational. Cabby protected Bow from elimination in The Shame of the Name because she wants her as an ally, presumably so she can learn more about what happened.

Dough
Although Dough is Bow's "alleged big brother", Bow has showed him nothing but antipathy.

Dough seems to crave Bow's approval, as he follows her around copying her. He says he finds her habit of talking to paintings annoying

In the end of Let Er' R.I.P., Bow asks Dough who is "he".

In Kick the Bucket, when Marshmallow tries to talk about her problems, Dough interrupts to say that he also has issues, such as having to watch Bow talk to paintings to seek attention, which he finds annoying, although he does the same. They seem to be able to get along sometimes, however, considering Dough didn't argue when Bow started to sing and had him play the piano.

If the non-canon video Dead as a Dinosaur can be taken as a reflection of how Bow feels about Dough, then she hates the feeling of being copied more than she hates Dough himself. If Dough seemed more individualistic, she acknowledges that he and Bow could get along.

Status: Arch-enemies

Goo
In The Shame of the Name, Bow and Goo are friendly with each other. They spend much of the episode discussing their team's name. When Bow needs backup because MePhone doesn't like her name, Goo is quick to support her. Later in the episode, Goo and Bow talk briefly about their new alliance with Cabby.

Knife
In Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow's ghost calls Knife's Dora doll lame, so she possesses it, causing it to glow pink and float. It then speaks a Marshmallow voice and then the doll turns red suddenly, rip apart, and then Bow drags Knife across the room and throws him out of the house.

Lightbulb
In Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow's ghost possesses Paintbrush and then Lightbulb grabs on to them, causing both of them to fly out of the house.

Marshmallow
Main article: Bow and Marshmallow

Marshmallow has been one of Bow's friends since the very beginning, when they became friends in Aquatic Conflict. When Marshmallow got eliminated, Bow didn't interact with her until Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2), when Marshmallow gives Bow a chair, causing her to get out of her evil state. In A Kick in the Right Direction, Marshmallow feels guilty about Bow, and asks MePhone4 to recover Bow, but she was found to be unrecoverable. In Let 'Er R.I.P., Marshmallow enters the haunted house, and then Bow's ghost appears out of a music box, causing Marshmallow to fall to the floor, and then she talks with Bow.

MePhone4
In Double Digit Desert, Bow replies happily after MePhone4 announced one of the eliminated contestants will rejoin.

In The Tile Divide, Bow attempts to protect herself by using a chair after MePhone4 punches her with the Fist Thingy.

Status: Enemies

MePhone4S
In The Tile Divide, after MePhone4S thinks Bow and Paper were annoying, Bow yells at him by saying she's not annoying, MePhone4S reminds Bow that she got the most votes to be eliminated.

Status: Enemies

Nickel
Bow and Nickel have barely interacted, but in Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow's ghost possesses Baseball, causing him to scare Nickel out of the house.

OJ
While Bow and OJ have barely interacted in season 1, in Breaking The Ice, Hotel OJ has a picture memorial of Bow, possibly indicating that OJ may have been on good terms with Bow off-screen in Season 1.

in Inanimate Smack down, OJ and Bow are together and look at Paper who was pronounced 'dead'.

In Journey Through Memory Lane/Part 2, OJ is surprised to see Bow attacking Taco and didn't want to fight with her, due to Bow done fighting Taco, it's unknown if she rooted for him to win.

In Stranded in Paradise, OJ is shocked to see Bow coming back to life.

Paintbrush
Due to Paintbrush's early elimination, Bow and Paintbrush barely interacted in Season 1, but in Let 'Er R.I.P., Bow's ghost possesses Paintbrush causing them to fly out of the house.

Paper
in Double Digit Desert, Paper told Bow to sit in an electric chair if she got more votes than he did. Bow gasps and asks him if it will have cup holders.

In Inanimate Smackdown, when Paper was talking about his psychological issues to her, Bow looked uninterested about it and decides to grab a chair and throw to him.

Pickle
Bow and Pickle have barely interacted, but if taken as canon, a Tweet Bow made in the October 2017 Twitter takeover implies that she thinks she should have made it further than Pickle in Season 1.

Salt
Bow and Salt have barely interacted due to Salt's elimination shortly after Bow won episode 10. However, in The Great Escape, Bow calls Salt ugly-face, so we can assume that Bow dislikes her.

Taco
In Inanimate Smackdown, Bow looks at her angrliy when Taco won.

In Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2), Bow attacked Taco while she was about to cross the finish. Taco later calls her "demented pink headgear," and blames her for causing her to lose.
