Nabla/Relationships

These are all the relationships Nabla has with the other contestants.

## Alef

*For a more detailed version, see Alef and Nabla.*
An Ice Beginning: When Alef and Nabla are put on Team 4, Alef reveals that they're cousins. While Nabla finds it unfortunate, Alef thinks they mesh well together, and to not do anything to embarrass him and they'll be cool. Alef then accidentally steps on Whoopee Cushion, much to Nabla's amusement. Later in the contest, Nabla tells everyone to focus on her plan, but Alef pushes her chalkboard off of the ice block, Alef says we won't say that Nabla's plan is stupid and hard to follow (despite thinking otherwise), and says that a bunch of science won't help them out. Nabla responds sarcastically asking what will actually help. When Frisbee knocks multiple contestants off their team's ice block, Nabla is surprised by it's effectiveness. Alef agrees, and tells Nabla to keep her geekiness to herself, annoying Nabla once again. When Alef is then knocked off his team's ice block, Nabla thanks Sock for knocking him off.

Smarter & Boulder: Nabla was presenting her plan based on weight distribution when Alef then interjects saying that Nabla downgraded from just being a nerd. Nabla retaliates by yelling about how he pushed her big chalkboard into the ocean, but Alef disregards it saying that Frisbee could possibly push the boulder one-handed.

Get A Grip: Nabla regains her chalkboard with the help of Glue. They then form a close relationship and decide to try and counter Alef. She makes another plan for the challenge, using the her chalkboard, with Alef questioning how she got it back. . Whoopee Cushion, due to being the operator, and the only one out of the claw machine, erases all of Nabla’s plan and replaces it with just a drawing of Nabla saying she is a jerk. Alef has a laugh at it, before Whoopee Cushion then draws him saying he is a “BiG FAT MEANiE”, with Nabla then laughing at him, and a negative response from Alef.

Fartists: Nabla begins her retaliation against Alef, with Nabla at the start of the challenge, referring to him with his real name that he actively hates, “Aleph”. She excludes him from the challenge as a response to her being able to do very little in the past, and her and Glue take control of the challenge. While Alef is watching the challenge from the sidelines, he, Frisbee (who was also excluded due to Glue saying he isn’t “delicate and detail-oriented” enough), and Ketchup form the Broliance to counter Nabla and Glue. Shortly after it’s formed, Alef goes back to the rest of the team, and demands he gets his place on this team back. Nabla and Glue respond saying they have everything under control, and that he doesn’t get to help. When the team is done with the painting, shortly after Cinnamon Bun gets stuck in the painting, Alef then comes to get Cinnamon Bun out, but Cinnamon Bun gets out by herself. Nabla and Glue proceed to sarcastically say he "saved the day”. Alef yells in a fit of rage but then slips on the painting and gets stuck in it herself. In unfortunate circumstances, Alef is propelled into the sky, and then fall into the ground, with Nabla, Glue, and Whoopee Cushion hysterically laughing at Alef. Nabla then says to Alef when he gets out to “consider this revenge” for what Alef did to her, and asks how it feels. He proceeds to walk angrily towards them, causing them to cower, but he then says he hopes she got what she wanted, before running away with tears in his eyes. Nabla and Glue consider apologizing, but don’t as they think it wouldn't be accepted. In the end scene of the episode, Alef kicks the paint bucket that contained the Paint Monster, and sees an inverted red triangle. In shock, he thinks of it as meaning Nabla created the Paint Monster.

Sun Blocked: during the elimination, Alef brings up the paint can, and accuses Nabla of making the monster from it. Glue and Leek backs up Nabla, while Frisbee and Ketchup back up Alef's claim. Glue and Leek all vote for Alef, meanwhile, Ketchup and Frisbee votes for Nabla due to believing she made the Paint Monster. Nabla then tells Alef that he didn't deserve what happened to him in the previous episode and they went too far, but thought he was better than this. Alef says he thought better of Nabla as well before they exchanged votes. Later in the episode, Alef finds the sun piece, before being interrupted by Glue, with Nabla then asking how to get to it. Ketchup quickly interjects saying that the Broliance should handle this, saying that the others would do sabotage. There is then an argument over whether Nabla actually sabotaged the challenge, to which the quarrel quickly changes from just shouting at each other to an actual physical fight.

## Frisbee

Sun Blocked: Frisbee, along with Ketchup, votes for Nabla to be eliminated. When Frisbee throws a javelin at the sun, Nabla calls him a brainlet, telling him that he can't hit the sun because it's too far away. Frisbee responds to her by calling her a filthy monster-crafter, angering her.

**Status: Enemies**

## Glue

*For a more detailed version, see Nabla and Glue.*

An Ice Beginning: they both have negative instances with Alef, as Alef pushed Nabla’s chalkboard off an ice block which then proceeded to hit Glue as it fell. Both were angered due to the incidents.

Smarter & Boulder: Glue tells Alef to quit arguing with Nabla saying she was also a victim of his “escapades” referencing her getting hit by the chalkboard.

Get A Grip: Glue helps Nabla bring back her chalkboard. When they come back, Glue and Nabla discuss about Alef, ith Glue calling him a jerk, and Nabla thanks her for being the only person who has caught onto it. Glue then has an idea which was that since that Nabla is Alef’s cousin, she must know some “juicy blackmail-adjacent details” that they could use. Nabla then whispers the details to Glue, and Glue responds with saying it was good, starting a close friendship. During the challenge, Alef questions Nabla on how she got her chalkboard back. Glue says "nunya", with Alef sarcastically and then aggressively laughing in her face. Later in the episode, after Alef comes out of the claw machine, Glue refers to him by “Aleph” which angers him, and turns out to be the detail that Nabla was whispering to her.

Fartists: “Aleph” was revealed to be his real name but he doesn’t think it is “cool enough”. They continue to refer to him by “Aleph” for most of the episode. Glue then takes leadership over the challenge, and exclude Alef from the challenge as revenge. They also exclude Frisbee due to art being a “delicate and detail-oriented procedure”, and Frisbee being “none of those things”. Both of them talk to each other as they were excluded, with Ketchup then joining in complaining he was used as an art supply. Frisbee then has the idea of forming the “Broliance”, against Nabla and Glue. After it’s created, Alef goes back to the team wanting his place on the team back, with Nabla and Glue saying they have everything under control, and he isn’t allowed to help. Later in the episode, they finish the painting and share a high-five, but only before Cinnamon Bun gets stuck in the artwork that they made, Alef then comes in and tries to get Cinnamon Bun off, but then Cinnamon Bun gets off on her own. Nabla and Glue then sarcastically says he “saved the day”, angering him. He then proceeds to slip on the artwork, and gets stuck on it, angering Glue. Frisbee then propels him into the sky by accident, and he then collapses on the ground. Nabla and Glue laugh at him and tell him to "consider it revenge”. He then angrily walks towards them, causing them to cower, but then runs away saying “I hope you got what you wanted.” She and Nabla later consider apologizing to Alef, but ultimately doesn't because they fear he won't accept it.

Sun Blocked: Alef accuses Nabla of making the paint monster but Glue comes to her defense saying it is a ridiculous theory and then vote for him to be eliminated, along with Leek and Nabla herself. Then during the challenge, both sides of Team 4 argue when they find the sun piece instead of trying to find a way to obtain it. Toothpick as a neutral ends up obtaining it, and gives it to Oodle.

**Status: Best Friends**

## Ketchup

Sun Blocked: Ketchup, along with Frisbee, votes for Nabla to be eliminated, calling her another enemy to the Bro-liance.

**Status: Enemies**

## Leek

Fartists: Leek gets used as a paintbrush for the challenge, Nabla asks if he was okay with it, and he agrees saying it’s the most he has ever done for the team. Later in the episode, Alef comes to Team 4 saying he wants his place on the team back, he takes Leek since he was a paintbrush and Nabla responds with attempting to take him back, not letting Alef participate, they keep pulling on Leek causing him to split in half and die. After he gets recovered, Nabla and Glue consider apologizing to Alef for their revenge, and Leek says he don’t think it would stop the viewers from voting him to be eliminated anyways showing a move towards Nabla over Alef since An Ice Beginning.

Sun Blocked: Leek makes his position in the drama more clear by siding with Nabla and saying she didn’t seem like the person to create the paint monster after Alef accused her of doing so. Leek then votes Alef to be eliminated, due to him coming in and being part of the reason they lost when they had the challenge “under control.” Later in the episode, he steals Alef’s flashlight which was his prize, and gets into a fight with Broliance member Ketchup.
