The conflict between Eli Goldsworthy and Becky Baker began in the twelfth season of Degrassi. Eli and Becky are polar opposites with clashing beliefs. Their differences were especially highlighted while working on a school play together. Eventually they settled their differences, and are currently on good terms.

Conflict History[]

Overview[]

Eli and Becky first met while co-directing a play. The two struggled against each other for complete control of the production, and while Becky secretly got her pitch for "Romeo and Juliette" approved first, Eli's decision to cast Tristan Milligan as Jules in place of Juliette, ultimately caused Becky to drop out of the production as she didn't agree with the homosexual nature of the play. Becky also planned a protest of Romeo and Jules, along with the help of her brother. After speaking with both Jenna Middleton, and Adam Torres, Becky finally came to accept the LGBT community and extended her offer to play the role of Jules in Tristan's place if he wasn't found in time. This, paired with her romantic relationship with Eli's best friend Adam, presumably ended their conflict.

Season 12[]

In Come As You Are (1), when Eli and Clare Edwards are talking, Becky interrupts them introduces herself, hoping to get Clare to show her to her classes.

In Gives You Hell (1), Eli does not like the idea of Becky picking the play.

Becky doesn't like that Eli makes the romantic leads male.

In Gives You Hell (2), Eli goes behind Becky's back and casts Tristan Milligan as Juliet but changes it to Jules. When Becky comes in and sees Tristan, she releases her true colors of the idea of Romeo and Juliet being homosexual guys, and Eli says he wants the play to be special. Becky then quits and leaves, saying this isn't right. Eli replies, "Welcome to Degrassi."

In Never Ever (1), Becky messes with ticket sales to stop the play from going on and tells Adam his play doesn't deserve the money.

In Never Ever (2), Becky realizes her 'feed the children' campaign was just a ploy to stop Eli's play.

In Scream (1), Becky tries using picket signs to stop Eli's play from happening.

Friendship History[]

In Building A Mystery (1), Becky accidentally bumps into Eli while getting off the bus.

In Bitter Sweet Symphony (1), Eli jokingly tells Clare he saw she's against Becky in the spirit week gladiator competition and says she has to destroy her.

Season 13[]

In Young Forever, when Becky says she guesses Jesus just wanted Adam close, Eli turns to look at her and looks down before Bianca DeSousa tells her that that's a stupid thing to say.

Season 14[]

In Hush, at The Dot, Eli has the crowd give it up for Becky and Jonah Haak's first performance as a new band as Drew Torres and Imogen Moreno watch on.
