Dougleo

**Dougleo** is the uncle/nephew pairing of Douglas Davenport and Leo Dooley (**Dougl**/as and L/**eo**). They were initially enemies because of Douglas' malevolent intentions with Adam, Bree and Chase and Leo's will to protect his family. He was the first to know of Douglas and Marcus' plans but remained unaware of his relation to Douglas until "Bionic Showdown", where it was revealed that Douglas was the younger brother of Leo's step-father, making him Leo's uncle. Despite their bad blood, the two became friends, where Douglas came to Leo for help about Krane and Leo came to Douglas to help fix Bree's chip when she destroyed it. Afterwards they became close friends, as Douglas repaired Leo's broken arm with bionics.

They still get on each other's nerves and get competitive with each other (like Leo's relationship with Chase), often teasing each other but remaining in a friendly manner.

## History

Leo and Douglas started off as enemies due to Douglas posing as a threat to Leo's family and Leo constantly meddling in their plan to capture Adam, Bree, and Chase. The teen survived an attempt on his life by Marcus and he was able to help rescue his family. Leo was also able to deduce that Douglas was the one who cyberhacked Donald based on the evidence that whoever was messing with Donald had made it his mission in life to destroy Donald and everything he held dear to. Douglas tried to kill Leo and Donald by bombing his brother's lair out of spite for his hatred towards Donald.

Douglas attempt to warn his family that Krane saw them as a threat, but Leo and his entire family refused to believe him. However, Douglas still sought Leo at school for help because he knew Leo would believe him about Krane. Rightfully suspicious of his step-uncle, Leo asks why he is there and Douglas tells Leo he has to believe him about Krane because Leo knew about Marcus and Douglas before anyone in the family did. After watching a video of Krane implanting himself with bionics, Leo is convinced by Douglas and thinks that he believes him.

Leo appeared to Douglas in "Which Father Knows Best?" Where he convinced his former enemy to help fix Bree's chip when she destroyed it.

In "You Posted What?!?" Douglas and Leo escape from federal custody and decide to figure how to save their family. They worked extremely well when they investigate the pipeline to prove it was sabotaged. They both were able to come up with the conclusion Victor Krane was behind everything and needed to find evidence that Victor Krane was behind the entire plot to expose the kids' bionic abilities. After Leo's arm is broken beyond repair, Douglas takes Leo to Krane's warehouse, where he gives his step-nephew bionics to heal his arm. He also gives Leo abilities, such as Super Strength and Laser Sphere Generation.

Despite them being on the government's good side, Douglas urges Leo to keep his bionic arm a secret because they would take Leo away and Douglas would end up in Federal prison. He also reveals that he made a remote that turns Leo's bionics on and off for the safety of himself and others. Leo steals the remote and activates his bionics. Douglas realizes this and confronts Leo at school, where he sees that his nephew was trying to impress a girl. Douglas decides to help him train Leo with bionics until he learns not to use it to set someone else on fire.
