The two both share a determination to keep the planet in safety and wants their undercover work to be done quietly. Aside from this, Drake sometimes serves as a conscience to Jim because he can be against Jim's drastic punishments but understands that he only does it because he cares about his agents and only wishes for their safety. Drake has sense of authority and doesn't tolerate reckless agents who endanger the lives of others while trying to do their jobs. It's his job to apprehend those agents before they can cause more destruction.

Drake is shown to be very skilled at his job. He's a master martial artist, a master pilot and has a great aim when using a laser gun. Drake has a soft side to his personality. Although Jalen and Jayhaf destroyed public property, he was touched by how they only did so they could avenge Dave and Robbie's deaths and believed that the agents could be redeemed. He fought along their side when the entire planet was in danger of being destroyed by an alien invasion.

## Appearances

### Alien Espionage

Drake is first seen walking around in the agency when Jalen and Jayhaf arrive there. He is next seen cheering for Jalen and Jayhaf as they heroically stopped an acidic slime spill from destroying an entire forest. Later that night, two alien ambassadors are fatally injured and taken over to the agency to be examined but end up dying shortly after. Willing to go after the murderer responsible, Jalen and Jayhaf goes against Jim's orders and goes after the murderer. They locate the murderer at the GILT night club and sets off an explosion that destroys the buildings and kills all of the thugs and supposedly the Rattus general, Rat Poison and his accomplice, Shanye. Drake is ordered to abduct Jalen and Jayhaf when Jim learns about this in the papers. Back in Jim's office, he scolds the agents for disobeying his orders but chooses not to press charges when the threat is presumably terminated but has Jalen and Jayhaf fired. Marco, Karina and Lily gives up their jobs, so they can be with their friends.

As the agents leave the office, Drake asks Jim, if he should erase their records but Jim says no, believing that they'll come back eventually. Firing Jalen and Jayhaf from their job was shown to be a fatal mistake as Poison, Shanye and Caroline infiltrate the agency, disable the computer system and viciously assaults Jim, Isiah and Calvin. However, while Jalen and Jayhaf gathers an army from the school, they also gather an army of agents to fight against the Rattus Army. Drake joins the fight and helps defeat Poison and saves the planet. Afterwards, Jalen, Jayhaf, Marco, Karina and Lily are reinstated as full-time agents.
