## Biography

Phoebe and Max first meet Link at Splatburger in the episode, Meet the Evilmans after Phoebe accidentally exposed her superpowers to him. She goes over to convince Link that it was a trick but Link reveals that he has superpowers like her too. Phoebe is excited to meet someone with whom she can finally use her powers without fear of being exposed. Phoebe and Max try to figure out who Link is, only to realize that he is the son of Evilman, one of Captain Man's greatest nemesis. So, Phoebe realizes that she can't date him but Max wants to meet Link's dad so that he can inherit Evilman's Ice Base. Max texts Link, inviting him for a date with Phoebe. Link comes over to the Thundermans house. Ella calls Bob to question Link to make sure he's good enough for Phoebe. When Bob recognizes Evilman, he forbids Phoebe from dating Link, and Evilman forbids Link from seeing Phoebe. Link and Phoebe stand up against their parents and remind them that their issues should not affect their kids.

### Relationships

When Link first met Phoebe, they both fell for each other quite quickly. However, being together turns out complicated when she and her brother finds out his father's identity. Jake, Bob and Mike both have an against though about their relationship at first, forbidding them to meet. As they break this rule, it comes to a fight followed by the realization that Captain Man and Evilman are enemies no more and get along with each other quite well

## Description and Personality

Link has a good heart and a calm, peaceful nature. He's great with children (in Who is Emma Phoebe states how her smaller siblings love to play with him) and patient when having to deal with Max or Bob. Based on the fact that he gives Phoebe many gifts like flowers, love letters or her favorite food speaks for him as a romantic person. While in a relationship with her Link is willing to befriend Max (even though he doesn't like him very much) to please her and also sacrifice his superhero career so that they can stay together.

On the other hand Link can be very clingy (to a point where even Phoebe gets annoyed with him) and snaps rather quickly which can be interpreted as him being highly sensitive/emotional, but also gullible (f.ex. in Who is your boyfriend he doesn't even question the events and immediately breaks up with Phoebe believing Max out of all persons). This leads to the conclusion that he hasn't got a good knowledge in people which is demonstrated again when he doesn't realize how his friend Quinn tries to manipulate his relationship and is a supervillain herself as seen in Why You Buggin'?. Another weakness of him is that he seems unable to make some decisions (except wanting to be a superhero) by himself: Phoebe has to get him into hero training, Phoebe has to decide if he should go to China or not, Phoebe needs to tell him that she would like to meet his siblings. All this shows that he hasn't quite sorted out his priorities yet and therefore stays passive most of the time.
