Professor **Jacob Lloyd**, more commonly known as simply **The Professor**, is a supporting character in the show The Council of Averages. He is a political scientist and analyst working in Bethesda, Maryland.

## History

The Professor was born in 1950 in either Maryland or New York.

He allegedly has acquired four PhDs, in forensic science, statistics, political science, and psychology.

He taught university in New York for a brief period while he was dating and engaged to Marsha Myers.

After breaking up with Marsha, he moved to The Library in Bethesda, Maryland and begin his research.

In 2017 he employed Caroline Kohl Dorsey as his apprentice.

He is often consulted by prominent politicians and media personalities for his insights.

## Appearance

The Professor is of average height and weight, with fair skin and blue eyes. As of his first appearance, his hair is white, likely due to old age, and it is unknown what color his hair was when he was young.

He wears a loose white shirt with a waistcoat and a black ascot.

## Personality

The Professor is a benign old man, almost fatherly in nature, so much so that Frank Dorsey sees him as a threat to his role as Caroline Dorsey's grandfather. Caroline described him as "smart but scatterbrained." He is often full of spirit and enthusiasm, and he is particularly excitable when it comes to his research. He is gentle in nature, refusing violent options whenever possible. He has a hopeless romantic streak, seen in his fawning over David Baines.

## Relationships

### David Baines

David and The Professor are romantic partners. They first meet in "The Professor's Day Out" at the park outside of the local university. Both of them develop a romantic attraction to each other by their first interaction. With Caroline's encouragement, David expresses his feelings to The Professor, and they begin dating. The pair are incredibly affectionate with one another, and enjoy discussing academic pursuits. By "Ace in the Hole," the two now live together.

### Caroline Kohl Dorsey

The Professor is Caroline's mentor. The two have been working together for more than two years by the time "Out of Service" takes place.

### P. Francis Rogers

Francis and The Professor run into each other frequently, as they both live and work around Washington, D.C. The Professor is afraid of Francis, often doing tasks for him simply out of fear for his career.
