Chris Hansen

Chris Hansen is an Assist Trophy in Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown.
== Character description ==
Chris Hansen is a television journalist and personality known for his work on Dateline: NBC. His most popular work was with To Catch A Predator, where Chris Hansen would work with police and cyber watchdog groups to lure online child predators to a sting house where he would interview them. Chris Hansen would be known for his dry delivery of inappropriate chat logs and instilling fear into predators as he tries to ask why they did what they did. Chris also migrated over to YouTube, for better or worse.
== In Smash Bros. Lawl Beatdown ==
When summoned, Chris will walk up to the nearest character and ask them to take a seat. After being trapped in the seat, Chris starts reading the aforementioned incriminating logs to the character, resulting in 20%. If the character in questioning tries to escape, Chris summons a police officer to tackle them, resulting in 5%. The chair has a large area around it so if somebody is even barely close to it, they can't escape.
=== Assist Origin ===
Chris Hansen's assist action reflects the format of a typical sting, with him forcing the accused to "have a seat", reading the incriminating chat logs and letting the police deal with them after. Chris's seat having a gravitational effect is a play on the fact that Chris somehow (most of the time) gets the predators to sit down and listen to him.
=== Role in the Beatdown Lore ===
Chris Hansen was invited to the Beatdown Mansion within the Assist Trophy branch, attending the orientation and getting situated with the other assists. He immediately went for a pizza served by Toriel during orientation.
Hansen was also one of many invited to the premiere of Dangeresque: 4 REAL This Time!, sitting with the other Assist Trophies.
