**Douglas Davenport** is the younger brother of Donald Davenport, the uncle of Leo, Adam, Bree and Chase and a major character of the Disney XD series *Lab Rats*, specifically being the overarching antagonist of Season 1, the main antagonist of Season 2, an anti-villain for the first half of Season 3 and a major protagonist for the rest of the series. He is Adam, Bree and Chase's real creator; it was also him who created Marcus and in Season 4, he has a son, Daniel.

He was portrayed by Jeremy Kent Jackson.

## Personality

At the beginning of the series, Douglas' evilness was built on the fact that he used to be bullied by his brother, Donald and felt overshadowed by all of Donald's successes. Because of their poor relationship, Douglas became anti-social and distant, driven by his hatred and jealousy of his older brother. The poor treatment Douglas got is what led him to go behind Donald's back and create four bionic human children, Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel. Douglas came to hate his brother after Donald learned what his younger brother intended to do with the children and kicking his out of Davenport Industries and taking Adam, Bree, and Chase away from Douglas caused him to find ways to get revenge on Donald. Despite their differences Donald and Douglas were more alike than they realized: intelligent, but proud, egotistical, and arrogant, making their arguing ironic. Despite this, the two brothers could never learn to get along and Douglas would stop at nothing until he ruined his brother for taking his kids away from him. Douglas was once selfish and uncaring, such as using children as weapons, starting wars, and robbing old women and taking over a country no matter what the cost. Though he had a father/son relationship with Marcus, he didn't seem to care that Marcus would burn out before he was sixteen. He also had no qualms turning Adam, Bree, and Chase into bionic superhumans of mass destruction, selling them to the highest bidder, whether they be dictators or mad Men. He had no qualms with harming Leo when they were enemies, despite him only being fifteen years old, considering him a "nosy kid" who constantly gets in his way. Douglas later left Marcus for dead so he could ensure his own survival. Despite his negative traits when he was evil, there was still a lighter side to him, as there were times when his sense of humor would overshadow the seriousness in a room. Apart from being evil, Douglas still cared for his bionic children. He did what was best for his youngest creation, Daniel, by giving him up for a chance at a normal life and he did take on a stray dog, Otis, giving him bionics to save his life and he saved Chase from an avalanche (in this case, however, Douglas was attempting to manipulate Chase) and later protected the Lab Rats from Victor Krane saving their lives once. He obsessively loved his children, up to the point where he tracked their GPS chips. When he did capture Aram, Bree, and Chase in "Sink or Swim," he wanted to use them for scams but also develop a family connection with them, like making Mondays family game nights.

In most of his earlier appearances when encountering Donald, Douglas could be quite childish and acts like an immature younger brother trying to get back at his older brother. When they were reunited after fifteen years, Douglas and Donald first insulted each other by calling themselves by their embarrassing nicknames and they continued mocking each other.  He stole money from Donald and only blew up his brother's lab to get back at him for taking Adam, Bree, and Chase from him. Later, when Douglas was with both Leo and Chase, they called Douglas out on his rivalry with their father. In the latter's case, Douglas pointed out he just wanted to get back at Donald, Chase wondered when both were just going to grow up, Douglas shouted in anger that he would "grow up when [Donald] grows up."  Meanwhile in Leo's presence, after Douglas gloated Donald could not fix something he made (Bree's chip) and that [he won] again, Leo told him it was about Bree, and not about Douglas beating his brother. Apart from getting back at his brother through all these years, Douglas had to bury the hatchet for them to work together to fix Bree's chip. Eventually, the two moved past their petty grudge after Donald decided to give his brother a second chance.

During his one last attempt to control Adam, Bree, and Chase, Douglas enjoyed using the kids to torment his family, reacting mostly like a five-year-old tormenting his older brother. He was driven to do this is stemmed out of his rivalry for his brother, and, it comes from the fact that both Douglas and Donald were arrogant and childish. However, Leo spoke through to Chase, much to Douglas's frustration, and he later told Adam to attack Chase, but not enough to damage him. After Chase override the Triton App from Adam and Bree and Krane made it clear that he wanted them destroyed once Douglas fixed the App, it was made clear that Douglas didn't want to hurt them and allowed Douglas to reminiscent on his past actions. Between his appearances, Douglas tried reconciling with his brother, kids and nephew, first by sending then friend requests, but they refused every time. Only Adam accepted it, as it appeared Douglas’s eldest son had begun to forgive him. When Douglas contacted them again, he was genuinely there to warn the family that Krane was a danger to them all. However, because Douglas tried killing Donald and his youngest son (Leo) and kidnapping Adam, Bree and Chase constantly, the family refused to trust him and didn't heed Douglas' warning. By this point, Douglas was afraid of Krane and turned to Leo because he was the first to figure out what Douglas and Marcus were up to. Unlike their previous encounter, Douglas spoke to Leo in a friendly manner, convincing his step-nephew that Krane was a serious threat. Subsequently, he saved Adam, Bree, and Chase when Krane was about to kill them and in return, Chase saved his biological father by throwing up his Force field to deflect Krane's attack on Douglas. The man would have succeeded in killing Krane had his brother returned shortly after rescuing his wife and son. Donald tossed Douglas out of the house and the younger Davenport left in defeat.

Afterward, Douglas went into hiding and kept his distance from the Davenports until Leo approached him for help to fix Bree's bionic chip after she destroyed it. He also came to Leo's defense when Donald yelled at his son for disobeying him, telling his brother to “lay off the kid” because Leo was just trying to help. The brothers began to pointlessly argue until they realized Bree's haywire abilities could potentially kill her and the two brothers solved the problem together. Afterwards, Donald chose to forgive Douglas from the past after Douglas apologizes for hurting the family, Douglas was invited to live with them for the time being. Since then, Douglas has been kinder and caring to his family, such as not bickering with his brother as much, giving the kids new bionic Abilities, such as Bree's invisibility, Chase's laser-Bo and giving Adam lung capacity and becoming close friends with Leo, such as enhancing his arm with bionics after it was crushed by a ceiling beam caused to land on him by Taylor, and finally had a chance at being a father towards his youngest son, Daniel. He no longer has his evil tendencies and helps anyone else, showing Douglas is a changed man.

Douglas no longer has his evil tendencies and helps anyone else, showing Douglas is a changed man. However at times, he does have some of his destructive tendencies remaining on at least two occasions. In "You Posted What?!?" Douglas suggested to Leo that he could blow up the Lab again so they could escape from government agents until Leo came up with a better solution. This is also notable in "Mission Mania", where Douglas made inventions that caused the students harm, such as a bazooka loaded with pencils that could potentially harm someone or a lie detector chair that would spin violently if the subject was lying. Despite this, Douglas remained an anti-hero the rest of the series. He was reluctant to connect with Daniel due to past incidents with his own kids but the two formed a strong father & son relationship. He also cares about the well-being of the students that lived at the bionic Academy as he demanded that Giselle reveal where she was holding the kids hostage and threatened to kill her. When he learned Marcus was alive again, Douglas begged him to stop torturing Daniel and tried offering them to be a family again. However, Marcus refused and when he tried to kill Leo again, Douglas saw his android son was beyond reason and ended him by melting him.

## Relationships

### Donald Davenport (Brother)

Donald is Douglas' older brother and though they grew up together, the two did not get along. Douglas often felt overshadowed by his brother and was often bullied by Donald when they were younger, being not that different from their sons, Chase and Adam. Even when Douglas got taller than his brother, Donald found a way around it and made a robot that he used to torment Douglas. The poor treatment he initially received would later cause Douglas to become an evil sociopath in his early days on the show. They founded Davenport Industries together but Douglas went behind Donald's back to genetically engineer Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel and infuse them with their bionic technology. However, after Donald rescued the eldest three, Douglas finally went over the edge and was obsessed with getting his revenge but faked his own death and lead Donald into believing he was dead. When Douglas resurfaced in 2013, he revealed himself to Donald but strangely enough, he only had Marcus stun him and didn't harm Donald when he was their prisoner. Since his appearance, Douglas tries desperately in getting back at his brother for taking his children and plotted to get them back. In "Sink or Swim Douglas said he loves tormenting his brother and that was why he sent Adam, Bree, and Chase under the Triton app after Donald, Leo and Tasha.

However, Douglas grew terrified of his partner Victor Krane and genuinely warned Donald and the kids that Victor Krane was dangerous. When Douglas rescues the kids, Donald had his brother at gunpoint and ordered him to leave his house but unlike dogs, Donald was willing to show Douglas mercy. By now the two would have an overgrown sibling rivalry that has gone too far. Because of their big egos, it took Leo to convince Douglas to let go of his petty against his brother, as this was about fixing Bree's chip and not about their big egos. The brothers worked together to recreate Bree's chip. However, Donald kicks Douglas out of the house yet again until the older brother acknowledges he was being a little hard on Douglas and allows him to stay at their home for a while. Despite reconciling, Donald and Douglas continue to fight, especially when it comes with dealing Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo's bionics. Despite this, the brothers have a healthy relationship, as Douglas was deeply concerned for his brother when he was sustained in critical condition because of Krane, feeling he should have protected him during the battle.

When it comes to the kids, Douglas claims they like him more than Donald because he gave them hidden abilities and tries to by the fun uncle for them. Apart from this, Donald learned to trust his brother by letting him oversee the bionic Academy in his absence and entrusting him with developing projects to improve the students' lives there. During a conversation on the phone, Douglas promised not to tweak Leo, Adam, Bree and Chase's bionics like he normally did and said he would miss Donald too. Donald also pushes Douglas to be a better father when his son, Daniel comes into his life.

### Chase Davenport

Chase is Douglas' second-youngest child, son and adoptive nephew. Out of all his children, he appeared to connect with Chase the most, due to both feeling overshadowed by an older sibling and underappreciated, as he saved Chase from an avalanche. He offered to give his son Bree's speed and Adam's strength and was manipulating his son the whole time. Chase seemingly agreed and apparently joined Douglas' side. He smuggled him into Donald's Lab because of Douglas' lack of resources. Douglas offered for Chase to call him "Dad" but the boy declined, as it was an awkward situation for them both. When Adam, Bree and Donald confronted Chase and Douglas, Chase revealed he was playing Douglas the whole time, because he would never betray his own family because they were a team. Just as Douglas was about to hurt Donald, Bree, Adam and Leo Chase acted quickly and froze Douglas in a block of ice.

However, Douglas escaped, and when the family was reunited, Chase continued to resent his biological father as he imprisoned the Lab Rats yet again and controlled Chase and his siblings with the Triton App. However, Douglas underestimated Chase's and Leo's bond because the latter had broken the former out of the Triton App and Douglas and Krane's control. Even when Chase was freed from the Triton App, Douglas had Bree and Adam attack him to incapacitate him rather than kill. When Krane later intended to destroy Adam, Bree and Chase, Douglas turned against him and tried warning the family that Krane was coming after them. However, Chase did not believe him, but had belief that Douglas may be telling the truth. After Douglas came to save them, Chase immediately used his Force Field and used it to block Krane's killing blow, effectively saving his biological father. Afterwards Chase seemed to slowly forgive him, as he tried stopping Donald from throwing Douglas out of the house at least twice. Douglas later saved his sons and daughter from Victor Krane when he tried to kill them. Since re-creating Bree's chip and Douglas reconciling with his brother, Douglas and Chase began growing close and Douglas hung out more than Adam and Bree do with Douglas, even giving him more abilities after empathizing with Chase on what it was like to be picked on by an older brother. During the discovery of the Bionic Team's secret, Chase had apparently forgot to scan S-1's presence at the mission sight and Donald began to chastise Chase but Douglas came into his son's defense because he made a small mistake.

In Season 4, Douglas decided to embrace his role as Chase's father, as they hung out more, bringing a dead spider back to life. He forbade him from awakening the Bionic Soldier Kate's commando app. Douglas also did everything he could to help rescue Chase from Giselle when she abducted him, as he immediately ran to the cyber desk to find a way to hack into Giselle's mainframe.

### Leo Dooley (Nephew)

Leo is Douglas' step-nephew since the former is Donald's step-son, however, the two were initially bitter enemies because of the teenager's constant interference in his and Marcus' own plan to abduct Adam, Bree and Chase. Since then, Douglas had Marcus target Leo and sent his android son to end Leo, despite him being a kid. Douglas tried killing Leo and his family at least 522 times (as mentioned in one of the episodes). One of these occasions included trying to blow up the lab with Leo and Donald in it and sending Adam, Bree, and Chase after the family under the Triton App. In the latter, Douglas underestimated Leo's and Chase's relationship, as the younger Davenport brother broke Chase out of it.

However, despite his past with his family, Douglas visited Leo at school and came to warn him about Krane, knowing full well that his step-nephew would believe him because he knew about Marcus and Douglas before the rest of the team did. Despite the past, Leo listened and believed Douglas about Krane after watching a video of Krane implanting himself with bionics. Since then, Douglas calls Leo "the kid" in a good-natured manner, beginning to develop a friendship with him. After Bree destroyed her chip to become normal, Leo went to Douglas (behind Donald's back) for help fixing her chip. However, as Douglas gloated how better he was than his brother, Leo chastised his step-uncle for obsessing about beating Donald, because Bree's situation was more important. Despite his big ego, Douglas was convinced to help his daughter get her bionics back as Leo smuggled him into Donald's lab. However, when Donald found out, he berated Leo until Douglas came to his defense, because "he was just trying to help [Bree]."

Since then, they have learned to get along better and became close friends, especially since Donald let Douglas moved into the Dooley-Davenport household and later came to care for Leo, such as making him a bionic arm after learning he would never be able to use it without bionic components. Douglas gave him a bionic arm after learning he would never be able to use his normal arm again and he trained Leo how to use it properly.

The two appeared to have moved behind their enmity, but Leo mentioned he has to refrain himself from taking out Douglas at least five times a day, as Leo tells Daniel that his father is not "that bad of a guy" and reasoned with him why Douglas lied to him. Douglas later gave Leo the responsibility to train Daniel, believing he could handle it; but was infuriated that Leo disobeyed him and gave Daniel to the new, upgraded bionic chip, after specifically telling him not to. Douglas later saved Leo from Marcus, knowing that it would be a fight his nephew could not win. However, Leo chased him out of the Lab and Douglas retreated.

### Bree Davenport

Bree is Douglas' biological and only daughter and adoptive niece. She initially hated her biological father but learned to get used to him when they began living together after Donald let him move in. He helped fix Bree's chip and even gave her the new ability of invisibility. However, Bree does not trust Douglas, mostly because he steals Tasha's bracelets.

### Daniel Davenport

Daniel is Douglas' youngest son and child and someone he is rather protective of. He gave him up for adoption because he knew he could not raise a child while on the run. He reunited with his son when Daniel was thirteen and contacted Douglas, who was not ready to be a father. Despite this, experiences with Adam, Bree, and Chase taught Douglas to be a better father for Daniel, such as be honest with him, help him get used to his bionic abilities and give him fatherly advice.

At first, Douglas didn't want to have a relationship with Daniel until his family encouraged him to invite Daniel over to the island to meet them. However, Douglas never told Daniel he was Bionic like his brothers and sister until they accidentally reawaken his bionic chip. Daniel was hurt by his father lying to him and Douglas accidentally shouted he didn't want Daniel coming there in the first place. The two reconciled when Daniel had a conversation with Leo. Douglas happily told Daniel he could come by any time. However, like Douglas did with Leo, he let Daniel haven't his Bionics because he thought he could handle it without realizing how similar the boys were. After learning Daniel was using his bionics, Douglas enrolled him into the Bionic Academy and didn't want Leo to give Daniel the upgrade they gave the other students because he wanted Daniel to learn how to do it by himself.

After Giselle kidnapped Daniel and the other Bionic Soldiers, Douglas and his family did everything to find them. When Marcus took Daniel's form, Douglas thought that it was his son until it was too late. Realizing how close Daniel and Douglas were, Marcus decided to take out his little brother first until Douglas encouraged Daniel to replicate Marcus is abilities, therefore seemingly destroying him. When Douglas revealed he was going to recreate Marcus and reprogram him, Daniel and the rest of their family shouted "No!".

### Taylor

Douglas met Taylor when she and Krane confronted him and his step-nephew. She preceded in attacking Douglas, Leo, and Perry. Because Taylor caused Leo's injury, Douglas had to fix it with bionics.

When she showed up at the Bionic Academy, Douglas feared her due to his and Leo's past encounter with her. This time, she was not there to hurt anyone and came to them for help, which would actually warn them of the doomsday virus that was not only on her chip but also, the Bionic Soldiers, and the Lab Rats (excluding Leo). Douglas and Chase tried to jog her memory on how Krane put the virus on her chip by recreating the day she was created; She was disturbed by Douglas's and Chase's impression of Krane and her and was reluctant to put her life and her siblings' life in Douglas.

After Leo accidentally blinded her, Douglas created glasses for her that vibrated whenever there was an obstacle coming near her and she would be able to move.
