This article focuses on the interactions between Eraser and Teardrop.
Eraser and Teardrop had no direct interactions in the first four seasons. In TPOT, they are rivals with each other, with Eraser often having Teardrop as his main victim to sabotage in challenges, but Teardrop always comes out on top.
After Teardrop's elimination in "Outbreak At Stake", the two reconciled, and Eraser gave her insight on what she accomplished throughout the season up to that point.
Debated Validations[]
In "Crybaby!", Eraser chooses Snowball to join his team over Teardrop. Teardrop looks unhappy about this.
Episodes suggesting a conflict[]
In "The Worst Day of Black Hole's Life", Eraser knocks down Teardrop's blocks which made her mad. Eraser asks Teardrop "What are you gonna do abou-" and gets obliterated by her. This moment is what likely started Eraser's grudge against Teardrop.
In "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", when told to go hinder another team by Golf Ball, Eraser immediately has his eyes set on Teardrop. He blows raspberry upon meeting her and threatens to shoot her attraction. Teardrop flutters her arms, which Eraser takes as her not caring. He decides to kick her attraction down instead, finding it so puny that it wouldn't matter, with Teardrop watching passively.
When Two tries out Teardrop's carnival game, Eraser attempts to destroy her attraction, but accidentally shows exactly how the game works by throwing a block at a stack off blocks on a table, like a ball toss game. Two finds this game fun and gives it a 5/10, making Teardrop safe. Eraser is angry with the fact that he unintentionally helped Teardrop win and starts chasing her around while firing the zap ray. Teardrop dodges his shots and blows raspberry at him and runs away as Eraser gives chase.
In "Fishes and Dishes", Eraser attempts to sabotage Teardrop for the challenge again. Teardrop has the upper hand however, as she could fuse her body with the Goiky Canal and swim through the water with no difficulty. Eraser continues to pursue her underwater from inside a breathable bubble. Teardrop ends up leading him to the five plates, although this was so she could ditch him as bait to lure out the fish monster. Her plan works as the fish monster chases Eraser away.
In "The Seven Wonders of Goiky", Eraser performs a stunt after Pen mentions wanting to do stunts with the Limitless Power. He runs against a building and jumps off. Eraser tells Teardrop that some people are blessed with talents like that and starts to say that maybe someday she can even get close to, before being cut off. Teardrop's expression becomes annoyed as he is saying this. Something catches her attention and she runs as Eraser was bragging. She runs toward a hill and slides down it. Eraser calls it cool and that she can do what a plate could do. Eraser and Pen laugh about this. Teardrop runs off the ramp and fuses herself with a cloud, and rains on Eraser, Pen, and Robot Flower.
In "Balancing P.A.C.T.", Eraser and the rest of his team agree that they should knock Teardrop of the balance beam, knowing how powerful she is. Later in the episode, after Eraser helps Teardrop, Teardrop betrays Eraser and throws him off the balance beam.
In "Outbreak At Stake", when Are You Okay runs away from the zombies, Eraser yells to Teardrop that she's not coming with them after last time, and they start to slap each other like Coiny and Firey do. At one point, Eraser throws a zombified 9-Ball at a zombified Tape, with Teardrop barely avoiding getting hit. Eraser says that he meant to hit her and Teardrop blows raspberry at him. For a moment, Eraser thought that Teardrop was going to leave him to get infected outside the vents and starts to curse her.
Neutral interactions[]
In "Fishes and Dishes", as Eraser chases Teardrop underwater, Teardrop stops and turns to him and gestures with her face. Eraser realizes that she's asking him to follow her. Eraser is confused as just seconds ago, he was trying to sabotage her in the challenge, but he goes along with it and follows her to the five plates.
In "The Seven Wonders of Goiky", Eraser says that he is sorry to Teardrop right before she rains on him, Pen, and Robot Flower.
Episodes suggesting a friendship[]
Despite their negative interactions, in "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", Teardrop greets Eraser with a friendly smile and waves when he approaches her.
In "Balancing P.A.C.T.", Eraser, seeing Teardrop infected by vomit, helps Teardrop instead of knocking her off the balance beam.
In "Outbreak At Stake", Teardrop saves Eraser from being infected by the zombified characters. Later, after Teardrop loses the challenge, Eraser becomes appreciative to her, and compliments of how she played a great game in the running. The two then share a handshake, before Teardrop playfully back throws Eraser and shares a laugh about it.
