== Beverly Hills Cop 3 ==
Uncle Dave Thornton is the owner of the Wonder World Theme Park. He first appears in a hotel, where he meets Axel Foley who immediately recognizes him and he and Janice Perkins inform Foley of the disappearance of Roger Frys while inspecting the grounds two weeks ago. He tries to heckle Ellis DeWald into revealing his criminal involvements, despite continued admonishments by Agent Fulbright, but DeWald proves too smooth to be caught in a mistake. When Axel later digs deeper into a closed-off section of the park, he finds out that DeWald and Sanderson, run a counterfeiting ring that uses Wonder World as a front, and DeWald was at the chop shop in Detroit to get his hands on blank printing paper used for American currency.
Later that night, Dave meets with Foley again to ask him about further details to find a piece of viable evidence, and thereby discovers that Fry's warning letter is actually written on a sheet of the stolen mint paper. However, Ellis Dewald appears and shots him. Foley saves him and brings him to the hospital. Unfortunately, Foley is framed of shooting Uncle Dave. However, Dave manage to clear Foley's name and exposes of Dewald's betrayal to Jon Flint, Ellis Dewald's friend and the partner of Billy Rosewood, informs the entire police whom are already being deceived by DeWald to arrest Foley, that it was Ellis Dewald who really shot him, not Foley.
Uncle Dave makes a very full recovery and he thanks Foley for bringing the traitor DeWald to justice for his betrayal and introduces a new character on Wonder World for his honor, Axel Fox and everyone in Beverly Hills including the police now realized that it was DeWald who really shot Uncle Dave and apologize to Foley for falling on DeWald's deception. Janice then brings Foley to see the new ride on the theme park.
