Though his face isn't physical seen, Marcus shows Douglas he planted cameras in the lab, as they now have eyes on the kids and the rest of the Davenport family. Mission: Space

### Season 2

After Marcus fails to keep Leo away, Douglas decided enough and saw he would have to take matters into his own hands. ("Leo vs. Evil")

He and Marcus later kidnap Donald and hold him hostage to lure the Lab Rats to Douglas' lair, where he reveals to Adam, Bree and Chase he is their real father before trapping them in a cage that prohibits them from accessing their bionic abilities. However, Leo (in Donald's Exoskeleton.) comes to save them. Marcus attempts to kill Leo but Adam unlocks a new ability to protect his younger brother and, in the chaos, Douglas escapes. ("Bionic Showdown")

Douglas returns in "Avalanche!", where he rescues Chase from an avalanche and it's revealed he has been tracking his children through their GPS tracking on their chips. Douglas apparently sways Chase to his side and promises to give his son all three abilities. Chase takes Douglas to his father's lab to make a new chip when Donald, Adam and Bree discover Douglas is there and reveals Chase joined him. At that moment, Leo comes in the room when Chase double-crossed Douglas because he would never betray his family. Douglas attempts to kill them but Chase is faster and traps Douglas in an ice cube and Donald has Douglas transferred into one of his safe houses and the Arctic.

However, Douglas manages to escape with the help of his associate Victor Krane. He hacks into his brother's banking account and takes his money and his profits. Chase Bree and Adam leave the family for Leo, Donald, and Tasha's safety. Douglas becomes aware of it and blows up his brother's lab, but Leo and Donald escape through the elevator.

### Season 3

In "Sink or Swim," Douglas disguises himself as Donald and pretends to rescue the kids from getting arrested off the barge until Douglas reveals himself and catches the three kids by surprise by deactivating his cybernask and traps them in hoops that deactivate their abilities. Once again, Douglas captured Adam, Bree and Chase and reinstalled the Triton App on them and activates it after they escape. He gets the kids to attack their parents and their brother, however, Leo talks Chase out of it. After Chase defeats Adam and Bree, Douglas promises to fix the Triton App, and Krane tells him after he does that to destroy Adam, Bree, and Chase, though this does not sit well for him and lets Douglas rethink his position.

Over the next weeks, Douglas realized that Krane has lost his mind. He attempts to reconcile with his family by sending Adam, Bree, Chase, Donald, and Leo friend requests, however everyone but Adam declines it. Once again, Douglas hacks into his brother's lab again to warn the team that Krane has become unstable and sees all the three kids as a threat. However, Donald refuses to listen and cuts his brother's video chat off before Douglas can think of a reason why they should trust him after he has previously threatened their family. Knowing Leo will believe him, Douglas goes to his school and pleads with the boy to believe him about Krane because Leo was smart enough to know about Douglas and Marcus before anyone else. The man reveals that he and Krane are no longer on the same page because his former partner is looking to destroy Adam, Bree, and Chase. To prove that Krane is a threat, Douglas shows Leo footage of the villain implanting himself with more bionics and using his new powers. Leo agrees that Krane is no laughing matter and asks Douglas what he should do, and the man encourages his nephew to tell Donald because his brother will believe Leo. Krane knows what Douglas was up to by warning Leo and cuts off his partnership with Douglas before knocking him out. However, Douglas survives and saves his children from Krane as he is about to kill them. He tries to kill the villain, but Donald, Tasha and Leo appear and Donald scares his brother off with his own blaster, threatening to end Douglas if he comes near their family again. (Taken)

Later, Bree destroys her chip and Donald is unable to fix it because the only person who can is Douglas. Leo suggests going to Douglas, and Chase agrees with his brother, but Donald refuses and forbids anyone from contacting Douglas. However, Leo disobeys his step-father and finds Douglas disguised as a female vender in the park and tells Douglas that Bree destroyed her chip and that they need his help to fix it. However, Douglas' rivalry with his brother and his ego nearly prevents him from doing so until Leo tells Douglas that he has to do it for Bree and because she is his daughter, Douglas decides to help them. He apparently fixes Bree's chip but she goes out of control. Both Douglas and Donald work together to free her from glitching and succeed in fixing Bree's chip. Douglas is happy to reconcile with Donald but his brother still kicks him out. However, Donald is convinced by his children to give Douglas a second chance, if he apologizes. Douglas does and is invited to live in their house for a while. (Three Minus Bree, Which Father Knows Best)

A few weeks later, the kids' bionics are exposed, which Douglas, Donald and Tasha learned on their own. Leo tries offering a way they can spin it but Douglas reveals it is too late and shows the family that the viral video was confirmed legitimate (and recorded by S-1) and that everyone all over the world is freaking out. The family is forced to go into hiding, and Douglas apologizes for causing the problem to Donald by putting bionics in humans, but his brother responds he is holding a press conference to blame everything on Douglas, much to the younger Davenport's frustration. Douglas later goes to the lab to help Leo and Chase pack up the basement, where Chase reveals he did do a full scan of the mission area. However, at that moment, FBI agents capture the Davenports as Douglas escapes with Leo in one of the lab's trap doors and they seek refuge at Mission Creek High School. Principal Perry helps them by running the picture of the girl through the school's database while flirting with Douglas. Leo begins suspecting that the mission was a setup when there was no seismic activity or no trace of the girl. They go to the mission sight and investigate, where Leo and Douglas conclude that Krane set this whole thing up. The group is confronted by Krane and S-1, who knocks Douglas and Perry to the ground while S-1 apparently kills Leo, but only manages to crush his arm with a ceiling beam.

Douglas and Perry recovered and attempts to get the beam off Leo, who had his arm damaged but Douglas is unable to lift it off of Leo because of Douglas' broken ribs. He goes to the firemen who come and help Leo up and take them to the hospital. However, Douglas learns from the doctor that Leo will never be able to use his arm again and refusing to let his nephew live without use of his arm the rest of his life, takes Leo from the hospital when he is unattended and to Krane's warehouse and uses bionic components to save Leo's arm, while installing defenses and Energy Laser Blasts. Leo wakes up to see his arm is healed and wonders why before Douglas has Leo test it out. He unexpectedly generates a laser blast and asks Douglas what he did. Douglas tells Leo he is now bionic in the arm, much to the boy's shock. Douglas further explains that he bionically enhanced Leo's arm after learning from the doctors that Leo would never be able to use his regular arm again and added that Leo has laser sphere generation and has super strength. After he fully recovers, Douglas and Leo went to leave but were confronted by Krane, who was surprised to see Leo was now bionic. Before Krane and Taylor could finish the two Davenports off, Adam, Bree, Chase and Donald found them and the three teenagers fought the two bionic soldiers off. In the aftermath of Krane and Taylor's defeat, both Donald and Tasha find out that Douglas gave their son bionic.

Subsequently, in "Armed and Dangerous," Douglas urges Leo to keep his arm a secret and agreed to train Leo with it.

## Relationships

### Terry Perry

Perry had a crush on Douglas when she first met him in "You Posted What?!?" calling him the only family member that didn't disgust her. However, Douglas never returns the affections, feeling weirded out by it. He never says that to her face because he presumably doesn't want to hurt her feelings.

## Family

### Donald Davenport (Older Brother)

**(Older Brother)**

Donald is Douglas' brother. It only got worse when they grew older and Douglas finally outgrew Donald, he created a robot to do the messing with Douglas for him. Throughout the series, they remain enemies and try to one up each other. However, they team up to fix Bree's chip after Leo went to Douglas when the family failed at every angle. Donald forgave Douglas and welcomed him to stay at the Davenport Household until the Victor Krane problem blows over. Despite their reconciliation, they still bicker but not as much. *(See Donglas)*

### Chase Davenport (Son)

**(Son)**

They are very similar and they have saved each others lives, but Chase also double-crossed and froze him. Chase steps up for Douglas in "Taken," and Douglas in "You Posted What?!?" and "Brother Battle."

They do a lot together, and it is assumed Douglas considers Chase his favorite out of all the Lab Rats.*(See Chouglas)*

### Leo Dooley

**(Step-Nephew)**

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. However there are times Douglas shows concern for him, like when he warned everybody to not wake Leo up because he might explode if his Bionic arm glitched. *(See Dougleo)*
