Regardless, when under extreme pressure, Deborah is shown to begin to panic under such circumstances.

## Appearance

Deborah has clear markings of Asian ancestry, although it remains unknown exactly what her ethnicity is. She wears a frumpy sweater; tight jeans; blue flats; and rounded glasses

## Pre-Crystal Lake

Prior to Crystal Lake, she was one of the trainees, and placed sixth. During this time, Eric LaChappa gained a crush on her.

## Crystal Lake

Deborah is first mentioned offscreen by Jenny Myers, where she reveals to Kenny Riedell and Brandon Wilson that her car was broken into and she needed to get a ride. She would however get one from Eric, who, unbeknownst to her, had a large crush on her. After arriving, Kenny proceeded to ask if Deborah agreeing to ride with Eric was more than just a friend helping out another, and thinking that Kenny is asking if Eric and her are together, Deborah quickly denies this. She is later almost hit by Chad Kensington's car, but is saved by Eric.

Deborah's dinner request is sushi, which A.J. Mason pokes fun of while A.J. is going to get dinner with Kenny and Rob Dier. Additionally, during the time A.J., Kenny, and Rob are out, Tiffany and Vanessa are able to intimidate Deborah into sabotaging the cars in order to get the counselors to participate in an orgy. Deborah is present for truth or dare, and when she is truth or dared by Tiffany Cox and she chooses truth, Tiffany asks her which boy she trusts the most, to which she chooses Eric. She is also present for Kenny's story, Kenny's and Chad's fight, and Rob's murder at the hands of Jason Voorhees.

Deborah and Kenny are separated from Chad, Tiffany, and Brandon, and they both end up in a cabin together. Before calling for the others, Kenny comforts Deborah, who is traumatized over Rob's death. After Adam Palomino, Eric, Brandon, and Vanessa Jones arrive, Deborah is mostly seen with Eric, who is comforting her. She later appears comforting Tiffany after Kenny yelled at Tiffany and Chad. She is at one point assigned to helping Kenny with the cars along with Adam, but Chad takes her place upon his insistence.

Deborah is later present when Tiffany is killed and her decapitated head flies through the window. She then proceeds to talk with Eric, Adam, A.J., and Kenny over the events that occurred, and is present when Kenny is able to contact Tommy Jarvis. She doesn't appear again until she offers to inform Vanessa of Brandon's death. When Jason attacks and kills Vanessa, she, Eric, Kenny and Tommy hold the door, and kisses Eric when he sacrifices himself to give the counselors more time to escape. She is later heartbroken over Eric's death, and is present when Chad begins threatening the remaining counselors and when he shoots A.J. by accident. She also witnesses his death seconds later.

Deborah is among the last remaining counselors at this point, and is the one to point out Jason's cabin. She, Tommy, Kenny, and Jenny go to the cabin where Tommy proceeds to explain his plan, which is to use the sweater found to trick Jason. Unfortunately, while discussing who should wear the sweater, Jason appears from behind and hits Deborah in the back of the head with the spiked bat, killing her.

## Post-Crystal Lake

It is unknown what happened to Deborah's body. Kenny would say in his letter that he actually had a crush on Deborah, but held off on them in order to let Eric have her. She, along with the deceased counselors, later help Kenny find the will to fight and amputate his arm and later appears at Kenny's and Jenny's wedding, crying tears of joy.

## Relationships

### Eric LaChappa

Eric was noted to have a large crush on Deborah, and was mentioned that he wrote stories about her and Deborah. When Deborah said that Eric was the guy she could stand the most, he was heavily flattered, but he is crestfallen when Deborah says Adam is the hottest male.

During the massacre, Eric spent a majority of his time comforting Deborah, much to her relief. When Jason is about to break down the door and Eric requests Deborah, Tommy, and Kenny escape without him, Deborah ends up kissing him passionately, showing she reciprocated his feelings. When she hears about Eric's fate, Deborah is heartbroken, revealing she genuinely loved Eric.

In the afterlife, he and Deborah are revealed to have began a romantic relationship.

### Kenny Riedell

While not interacting much, it can be presumed that Deborah and Kenny have a good relationship. After Jason killed Rob, Deborah is the only one to follow Kenny, showing that she places a good amount of trust in him, and doesn't seem upset at her for removing the batteries from the cars. Kenny also comforts her over Rob's death and Eric's death. When Deborah is killed, Kenny is shocked and saddened by her death, and in his letter to her, he revealed he had a small crush on her. In Kenny's dream, Deborah kisses him, showing she reciprocated his feelings.

### Rob Dier

While not interacting much, it can be possible that they had a good relationship. When Rob is killed by Jason, Deborah is deeply traumatized.

### A.J. Mason

While never seen interacting, A.J. makes a small comment about Deborah wanting sushi and mentions it as a stereotype for the Asian Deborah. After this, their relationship remained rather uneventful until Deborah witnesses A.J. defend her and the others against Chad and eventually be shot, shocking her.

### Tommy Jarvis

While not interacting much, it is possible that Tommy cared for Deborah, and was horrified at her sudden death.

### Vanessa Jones

While not interacting much, it is possible they had a rather neutral relationship. Deborah is mentioned to be rather intimidated by Vanessa, which is one of the big factors in her sabotaging the cars. However, it can be possible she has some care for Vanessa, seeing as she comforted her over Brandon's death.

### Chad Kensington

Chad and Deborah, while not interacting much, had a negative relationship due to Chad's taunting of her. He also calls her ugly, just like Eric, and almost hits her with his car. Their relationship greatly sours when Chad shoots A.J. dead, but Deborah is horrified when Jason kills Chad.
