Douglas Davenport

Douglas Orville Davenport, also known as Douglas Davenport, is one of the main characters from the Lab Rats series.
== Charactah Account ==
Douglas is the younger brother of Donald Davenport, the biological father of Adam Davenport, Bree Davenport, Chase Davenport and Daniel Davenport, the step-uncle of Leo Dooley as well as the creator of Marcus Davenport. He is also the one to give Victor Krane and Leo bionics. Due to Donald taking Adam, Bree and Chase from him, he is known as their uncle but had come to be considered as a second father to them.
Douglas shares many traits with Donald. Both men are geniuses who are very arrogant and possess a very large ego. However, unlike Donald, Douglas was formerly ruthless and uncaring; he had no problems with turning children into weapons, starting wars, and causing destruction if it benefited him. He was completely amoral, devious and willing to do anything to benefit his goals. Back then, he only cared about succeeding in his goals and benefiting himself, through various underhanded and illegal activities. He also didn't have any problem with the idea of murdering children if they got in his way, thus making him a truly evil man, but he has developed a change of heart, and now helps the Lab Rats fight villains who are as evil as he used to be, especially Victor Krane who he seeks revenge on for double-crossing him. He even stands up for the Lab Rats when Donald is wrong to be angry at them.
Douglas did seem to have some level of care for Marcus, his creation; the two had a strained father/son relationship. Nevertheless, he had no problems with the fact that Marcus was not going to last 'till his sixteenth birthday, as androids burned out quickly, and seemed to regard him as little more than a weapon. He was shown to be impassive once Marcus had been killed when the lair had collapsed.

== Trivia ==
* Adam, Bree and Chase are his children, which most think is because Douglas implanted and created their chips, but he may be their biological father as he and Chase seem very similar. There is also a lot of evidence throughout the series that proves he's the father of the lab rats. The Lab Rats now consider him their second father.
** It is known that they are genetically engineered and is likely that Douglas used his own DNA to create them, thus making him their biologically father.
** In And Then There Were Four it is revealed that Douglas created a fourth bionic kid named Daniel, who was adopted out when he was a baby, and first meets his family in the same episode.
*** Douglas becomes an official student of the Academy.
** The only people outside the Davenport family who know Douglas is the Lab Rats' real father are Krane, the Bionic Soldiers and Giselle.
* As of Taken, Douglas is now a good guy.
** Douglas is living with the Davenport family as of Which Father Knows Best?.
* Douglas had faked his death after being booted from Davenport Industries and was on the run from the FBI. Falling in a volcano may or may not be the way he faked his death.
** Douglas also faked his death again after Krane tried to kill him, and he stated that he was getting good at faking his own death.  
* Had the Lab Rats died in Back From the Future, Douglas would not have been able to kidnap them and blow up the lab.
** If the Lab Rats had never encountered Douglas, they would most likely have never encountered Victor Krane.
* Douglas likes Smooth Jazz.
* Douglas once turned his brother's dead gerbil into a zombie. The fact that Douglas reanimated an extinct species of sea spider proves the former to be true. 
* Douglas has gotten in trouble with the law at least once, having been to prison four times.
** Douglas also gave a going-away speech for at least one of these occasions.
** One of Douglas's previous crimes involved scaling a wall, meaning it was a heist, or burglary.
* Douglas is the only main antagonist to survive.
** Douglas was attacked in Lab Rats: Elite Force, resulting in severe injuries. It was revealed by his actor that he survived, but nothing was said about his condition or any effects that the attack left on him.
* Douglas created a bionic android named Marcus, with whom he shares a strained 'father-son' relationship and called him 'son' with Marcus in turned called him 'dad'. Despite caring for his human children more and leaving Marcus behind to be crushed by the crumbling lair, Douglas had stated that Marcus is his greatest creation and still seems to care about him.
** Douglas didn't seem phased that Marcus would reach his 16th birthday, but he did care enough not to tell him and allowed him to be happy and excited about his birthday since he believed he was getting a car.
** Douglas tried to convince Marcus to not kill Daniel, wishing for Marcus to also be a part of the family and they could even adopt a kitten.
** Douglas brought back parts of Marcus in order to re-build him and program him to be good so that they could be a family.
* Though Douglas wished no harm to come to the Lab Rats and did not try to kill Donald, he found Leo a threat to his plans since he found out about Marcus, and Douglas wanted him dead. As of Taken they had started to become friends, and are now considered close.
** Douglas went to Leo for help warning Donald about Krane, knowing that Leo would believing him since he was the only one smart enough to know about Marcus.. Leo later on went to Douglas for help making Bree another chip since Donald could not replicate Douglas' work. He even referred to Douglas as ‘dad’ in order to convince him to help; while he was desperate and likely was only trying to convince Douglas, Leo calling him ‘dad’ even while Adam, Bree and Chase (Douglas’ children) don't refer to him as such suggests he and Douglas are close or were beginning to become close by that episode.
** Douglas was greatly worried for Leo when his arm was crushed, even attempting to lift the beam himself despite being hurt. He then ran to get help for him, and gave Leo bionics in his arm once it was said Leo would likely never be able to use that arm again due to the extensive damage.
** Douglas destroyed Marcus for good in an attempt to help Leo when the latter two were preparing to fight.
* Douglas is smarter than his older brother Donald. He is a better programmer than Donald, as he was able to decrypt Donald's Triton app block in 8 minutes and easily hack and deactivate Eddy and get into Donald's house as revealed in Bionic Showdown and was able to hack Davenport Industries and Donald's bank account without being traced to his location in No Going Back. However, any software made by Victor Krane would take months for him to decrypt.
* Douglas gave Leo bionics as of You Posted What?!? after Leo's arm was crush beyond repair, causing Douglas to give his arm bionics in order to save it.
** Douglas made Leo an arm capsule to keep his bionics from forcing him going on a rampage again as of Under Siege.
** Douglas uses Leo's bionics to open up pickle jars. He went up to Leo and begged him to open up a pickle jar, stating that he had not eaten all day.
* Douglas hates it when Donald (and Perry) calls him "Dougie". However, Tasha called him "Dougie" once and Bree has called him "Dougie" a few times, and he didn't seem to mind.
* Donald foreshadows the existence of his brother in Exoskeleton vs. Grandma, as he says that Adam, Bree and Chase are his brother's children who he adopted when he died. Though he did not formally adopt them, he did believe Douglas to be true as he faked his own death.
* It was revealed in the episode Avalanche that Douglas took some cooking classes in the '90s and is a really good cook according to Leo in Which Father Knows Best?.
* Douglas can relate to Chase the most out of his three biological children due to being the youngest, always having the spotlight stolen by an older sibling and a older sibling that tease him.
** Douglas may also be able to relate to Chase because they are both smarter than their older siblings, but are not as popular so nobody appreciates their inelegance.
* It's implied that Douglas builds weapons for dictators and terrorists, and is wanted by the F.B.I., and in Avalanche when asked if he was going to build a bomb or take over a small country he replied, "No. Well, not in that order." He also said he was going to steal money from old ladies. Back then, he had a somewhat goofy personality, but was a truly evil man who had no morals, though he's no longer like this.
* Douglas doesn't want his mother to know he's alive because he claims that she never stops calling.
* Along with liquidating all of Donald's money from his back account, Douglas is guilty of blowing up Donald's lab, as seen in No Going Back. It's unknown what happened to all the money Douglas stole, but it is possible that Krane took it all and used it to upgrade his bionic army.
** Though Douglas had bought 2,000 dollars worth of hair dye, colored contacts, a speed boat, and a plane ticket.
* Douglas had a new masked partner, named Victor Krane, a man who implanted himself with bionics. Douglas, according to their deal, also shared all his research with him. (Krane pays him and any information / knowledge that Douglas finds, he shares with Krane).
** Krane then gave everything Douglas learned from Douglas to Dr. Gao.
* Douglas' life was saved by his youngest, Chase, in Taken, right after he tried to save all of them.
* Douglas wants Victor Krane to interact with him to keep his plans from getting boring, possibly meaning that he misses Marcus. Seen in episode Sink or Swim, Douglas pats Krane on the back and Krane looks at him very seriously. And Douglas said in Sink or Swim, "Time to have some fun! Chest bump!" Douglas chest bumps Krane, but Krane doesn't chest bump back, causing Douglas to land flat on his back on to the floor. Victor Krane does not like it when Douglas is acting goofy during their plans.
* According to Douglas, he and Krane were friendly with one another at one point—he stated they went as Brad and Angelina on Halloween.
** They most likely fall apart after Krane started growing more and more unstable as he implanted more bionics into himself. The final push was when Krane planned on killing the Lab Rats, causing them to ultimately become enemies.
* While he is evil and wants to use bionic powers for evil, Douglas does seem to care about Adam, Bree, and Chase. In Sink or Swim, when Victor Krane asks him to destroy Adam, Bree, and Chase he says "That was never part of my plan" meaning that he wants them alive, and he also saves them from Krane in Taken, as well as tells Leo that he never planned on hurting them, just using their powers to do "garden variety bad guy stuff".
* Douglas' face was first shown in Leo vs. Evil , as we only see him sitting with his back to the camera in a chair every other episode he was hinted to be in before. 
* Like Donald, Douglas is also irrationally obsessed with his hair. In Sink or Swim, he says that he is a genius too, but with much better hair.
* Douglas was dismissed (or as Donald liked to put it, "flunked out) of medical school due to his screaming at the sight of the needles.. Oddly enough, this didn't seem to be an issue when he assembled a harpoon that used a needle. (Spider Island). This would imply Douglas has Trypanophobia (fear of injections) as opposed to Belonephobia (an abnormal fear of sharp pointed objects, especially needles).
* Douglas needed Leo's bionic arm to open a pickle jar.
* Douglas likes the TV show "Funeral Mishaps."
* Douglas calls his inventions "toys."
* Douglas forgot Marcus' birthday.
** Douglas believed that Chase's birthday was June 1, but Chase informed him it was August 5 and sarcastically told him he was close.
* It is unknown if Douglas will be accepted back into Davenport Industries by his brother as the series progresses. However, in Face Off, Donald makes it clear he cannot trust him or Leo yet to be involved with his company at a high level. However, Donald only lets Douglas work at the Davenport Bionic Academy's R & D.
* Krane shocked him in the past. In Face Off, Douglas proclaims, "At least when Krane shocked me, he explained why".
* Mr. President doesn't accept Douglas to tell him a mission.
* Even when Douglas was working with Victor Krane, he wasn't completely evil, considering he took in a stray dog, Otis, and saved his life with bionics. As a result, Otis was one of the few beings he cared about, and while Douglas wanted to enslave Adam, Bree and Chase, he still suggested spending quality time with them on their off duties, to show that he still loves them.
* Douglas possibly made the first bionic animal when he gave a stray dog, Otis, bionics to save it's life after taking it in.
** Douglas extracted Otis' chip in Bionic Dog.
* Douglas wanted to impress Donald by making weapons, he also wants to be back on his good side.
* Douglas appears to be taking turns with Donald being in the lab at the Davenport Household and being at the Davenport Bionic Academy, which would explain why Donald was absent in the episodes that Douglas was in. 
* Douglas experimented on the kids' bionics while they were sleeping. According to him, they 'didn't even notice'.
* It's possible either Douglas or Donald gave Leo a arm capsule to stop him from going on a rampage again like in Under Siege when he went on a rampage due to not having a capsule for his arm.
* Douglas used to date Giselle in college, but she broke up with him, which he says was the worst day in his life.
* Douglas had two partners who betrayed him: Victor Krane and Giselle, both of whom ended up being the main antagonists of Season 3 and Season 4 respectively.
** When they betrayed Douglas, Douglas knew Krane was evil, but he didn't know Giselle was evil when she betrayed him.
** Though he had actually betrayed Krane first by warning Leo about him, which lead to Krane trying to kill Douglas.
*** Despite betraying Krane, Douglas never tried to hurt him, possibly still thinking of the times when they were close and wanted to continue the partnership but also secure he kids' safety.
* According to Leo and Chase, Douglas' jokes are terrible.
* Douglas' middle name is Orville.
* In Bob Zombie, Douglas almost marries Perry in order to reclaim half the island. Fortunately, Bree tricks Perry into giving them back the island, so they don't get married.
** At the wedding, Douglas chose Leo as his best man. It is unknown if he is the one who chose Chase as the flower girl since he looked surprised when Chase walked out while Leo and Adam just smiled humorously.
*** It is possible that Leo may have chosen Chase since he smiled at Douglas when the latter was confused by this, or Perry chose him but Leo knew about it prior.
* Douglas says in Bob Zombie he always makes two of everything, which would explain how he had another Triton App remote in Sink or Swim and another remote (which he probably gave Donald) to control Leo's bionics in Left Behind.  
* Douglas loves his bracelets, believing five is the right number.
** Douglas even made Marcus's eyebrow into a bracelet.
** Douglas sometimes wears Tasha's bracelets.
*** Stealing Tasha's bracelets is the reason why Bree doesn't trust Douglas.
* Out of all of Douglas's children, Daniel and Marcus are the only two of his children to refer to him as "Dad".
** Chase called him "Dad" in an episode of Elite Force after Douglas got his birthday wrong and sarcastically told him "but close, dad." He and Bree also introduced him as their "uncle" and the said: "well actually he's our dad" in Elite Force.
*** But Bree laughed, saying "like we'd ever call him that" in a joking fashion.
** Adam has called him "Uncle Daddy" as well as said that Douglas is their real father.
** Leo also called him "Dad" once in an attempt to get him to help Bree, and got aggravated when Douglas pointed out his wasn't his father which make Leo state "well, you're everyone else's dad!"
* Douglas has been absent for 4 out of 11 one hour specials (Crush, Chop and Burn, Bionic Rebellion, Lab Rats vs. Mighty Med and Space Colony.)
** It's implied Douglasdidn't appear in Bionic Rebellion and Space Colony because as Krane's former partner, he would've easily figured out in a shorter amount of time the handiwork of Krane (or someone working for him). He also didn't appear in the crossover, probably because he would've easily figured out Chase's virus and how to cure it.
* Douglas is one of four Disney XD villains to turn good. The others are Wallace and Clyde from Mighty Med and Lanny from Pair of Kings.
* Out of everyone in the Davenport Household that Douglas sent a friend request to while he was still evil, Adam was the only on who accepted and claimed that Douglas' updates were funny.
** According to Adam, one of Douglas' updates were: "Looking forward to a weekend of evil ;)."
* Terry Perry has a crush on Douglas as seen in You Posted What?!?.
* Douglas wore the same jacket in Armed and Dangerous that he previously wore in Bionic Showdown.
* Douglas is the second person in the Davenport Household that doesn't have brown eyes, the first being is Chase.
