Phoebe is the brains of the outfit. She always tries to be the first one with
the answer, and isn't exactly thrilled when someone else does better ("Ms. Perfect", "Phoebe Cheats").
She's also pretty good at handling a fencing sword ("Phoebe Cheats"), even when it's a flashlight ("Wheezin'
Ed"). There is some evidence that she is
musically inclined as well; she's carrying what appears to
be a string bass in "Helga on the Couch" and is
practicing some sort of large horn in "School Dance". (However,
music is one of those disciplines where you need creativity,
and that seems to be one of few things that Phoebe lacks, if
"Phoebe Cheats" is anything to go by.)
Just as Gerald hangs around with Arnold, Phoebe hangs around with Helga, who considers Phoebe her best friend (she
even says so in "Magic Show", after yelling at her), mainly because Phoebe is probably the only person
who likes Helga the way she is ("Helga's Makeover"). At first, Phoebe was Helga's "shadow",
right down to the point where seeing Helga cry made her cry as well ("Downtown As Fruits"), but she's
starting to "let go", and it may be in part because she's developing a noticeable crush on Gerald ("Operation
Ruthless", "Wheezin' Ed"), although there weren't any "Gerald and Phoebe" moments in the
second season, except when they shared a desk ("Teachers' Strike", and that was one of the "first
season holdover" episodes).
I may have spoken too soon; Phoebe gets that
look after Gerald's solo in "Gerald's Tonsils", they spend pretty
much all of Rhonda's party together in "Hey Harold!",
they look at each other (while holding hands) in "Arnold's
Thanksgiving", and she has his picture in her locker (for example,
in "Phoebe Breaks A Leg").
Then again, she may not be impressed by Gerald as much as she is by anyone with some talent; she has the same look
at one of the drivers at the end of "Grand Prix".
Still, Phoebe is around when Helga needs someone to talk to ("Operation
Ruthless", "Helga's Love Potion", "Monkey Business")...and although Phoebe is smart enough
to have figured out how Helga really feels about Arnold ("Helga Sleepwalks"), she's also smart enough
that she wouldn't let anybody know that.
There seems to be some question as to how her last name is spelled;
her school record says "Hyerdahl", but the credits to "Phoebe Cheats"
and the award she gets in "Phoebe's Little Problem" say "Heyerdahl".

Kyo Heyerdahl |
Phoebe's father; I think it's safe to assume he's of Japanese descent. ("So
how did he get the name 'Heyerdahl'?", you ask? Maybe he's Japanese on his mother's side.)
