Ramona Flowers

Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life

Ramona moved to Toronto from New York, and she soon met Scott Pilgrim. He kept seeing her in his dreams and then discovers her at a party which was thrown by Julie Powers, Stephen Stills' Girlfriend. He found out that she works for Amazon.ca and orders CDs off of Amazon to have her deliver them to him so they could talk, and eventually asked her out on a date, even though he was still dating Knives Chau (17 years old). It is discovered that Ramona uses something called Subspace doorways to travel, and a convenient path is through Scott's mind, which is why she appears in his dreams.

After their date, in which Scott made out with her and slept in her bed but they did not have sex, Scott invites her to his band, Sex Bob-omb's show. She appears at the show and watches as Matthew Patel, her First Evil Ex bursts through the ceiling and begins to engage Scott in a Street Fighter like battle in which Scott defeats Matthew. After the show, Scott and Ramona ride the subway and Scott asks her if they can date, although he is still dating Knives. She then informs him that if Scott wants to date her he has to defeat her seven evil ex's, which he agrees to do.

After Scott breaks up with Knives Chau, Ramona comes over to Scott and Wallace Wells' apartment to spend time with Scott. She is Back at Scott's place the day after, as she and Scott watch movies starring Lucas Lee, Ramona's second evil ex in order to study him, but this quickly becomes boring and they start making out and then fall asleep.

Suddenly, Knives Chau appears out of nowhere and starts engaging Ramona in a fight because she is jealous of her. Ramona, who has no idea who Knives is, defends herself and fights back. She discovers that Knives used to date Scott from Stacey, and just as Ramona starts gaining the upper hand in the fight, Knives flees.

Eventually, Envy gets back on track with destroying Ramona, and Scott intervenes and pokes Envy in her weak spot, which is the back of her knee. Ramona then tells Envy that Todd is cheating on her with the drummer of The Clash at Demonhead, Lynette Guycott, which Envy does not believe because Todd proved his love for her too, by creating a crater in the moon. Ramona tells Envy that Todd did this for her as well and they confront Todd, who is just exiting the restroom with Lynette with Lynette's panties on his head. This turns into a fight between Scott and Todd, and eventually, Scott wins when the Vegan Police take away Todd's powers for eating gelato.
