**Douglas Davenport** is the overall tritagonist of the Disney XD television series *Lab Rats* and a recurring character. He is the younger brother of Donald Davenport, the biological father and true creator of Adam, Bree, Chase, Daniel and the android Marcus, the brother-in-law of Tasha Davenport and the uncle of Leo Dooley and Naomi Davenport. His character arc goes through the series as the overarching but hidden main antagonist of Season 1, the main antagonist of Season 2 and the Season 3 premiere "Sink or Swim" and an anti-hero/major protagonist of Season 4.

He was not revealed to be the original Lab Rats' creator until the second season and in the fourth season, Douglas' youngest son, Daniel was introduced as the fifth bionic kid in the Dooley-Davenport family. He sends his android son, Marcus to spy on his family and capture Adam, Bree and Chase and tries everything to get Leo and Donald out of his way.

Halfway through Season 3, Douglas begins to reform when Krane makes it clear he wants to destroy his children. First, he warns Leo of Krane's plans and later saves his children when Krane attacks him. Douglas finally reformed when he fixes Bree's bionic chip, leading him to being accepted by and joining the Davenport Family by moving into the Davenport Household). Douglas also gave Leo a bionic arm after his original was crushed by Taylor when she was under the Triton App's influence and trained him how to use it properly. After the Bionic War, and the Davenport Bionic Academy was established, Douglas started alternating with Donald to overlook the Academy in his brother's absence. He tries everything to get in Donald's good graces. After the defeat of Giselle Vickers, Douglas stayed in Centium City to overlook the Elite Force.

Douglas is portrayed by Jeremy Kent Jackson.

## Background

Douglas was born in the year 1973 or 1974 and the younger brother of Donald Davenport, the father of Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel, and step-uncle of Leo Dooley. As children, Douglas was often bullied by his older brother and under appreciated (as revealed when he tried connecting with Chase in "Avalanche"). Because he was often mocked by his brother, it turned Douglas into a bitter, anti-social scheming genius. Their parents' names were never given in the series. According to Douglas, he does not want his mother to know he was alive because she never stops calling him.

He attended college, during this time, he was dating a robotics major Giselle Vickers. However, she broke up with him, causing Douglas to be heartbroken and one of the most worst days of his life. He later went to study to be a doctor, but he immediately fainted due to his fear of needles.

In 1992, Donald and Douglas started Davenport Industries, creating technology and sent androids on missions that were meant to perform things impossible for humans to do. However, Douglas went behind his brother's back and engineered four humans and infused them with Bionics: Adam, Bree, Chase and Daniel and hoped to create a battalion of bionic soldiers and using them as weapons, or at least, sell them to terrorists and dictators.  Donald figured out what his brother was up to and promptly disowned him, taking Bree, Chase, and Adam away with hopes of raising them and use their powers for good.

Losing his three eldest children, Douglas gave up his youngest son up for adoption to ensure he had a normal life (And Then There Were Four). Faking his own death, he led his brother and parents to believe he had died and FBI began hunting them down. .

At some point, he found a stray dog, Otis, and put bionics in him to heal the dog. Krane later went behind Douglas' back and created at least one-hundred bionic shoulders. (which Douglas would later learn and realize why Krane had 100 baby pictures)

### Personality

At the beginning of the series, Douglas' evilness was built on the fact that he used to be bullied by his brother, Donald and felt overshadowed by all of Donald's successes. Because of their poor relationship, Douglas became anti-social and distant, driven by his hatred and jealousy of his older brother. The poor treatment Douglas got is what led him to go behind Donald's back and create four bionic human children, Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel. Douglas came to hate his brother after Donald learned what his younger brother intended to do with the children and kicking his out of Davenport Industries and taking Adam, Bree, and Chase away from Douglas caused him to find ways to get revenge on Donald. Despite their differences Donald and Douglas were more alike than they realized: intelligent, but proud, egotistical, and arrogant, making their arguing ironic. Despite this, the two brothers could never learn to get along and Douglas would stop at nothing until he ruined his brother for taking his kids away from him.

Douglas was once selfish and uncaring, such as using children as weapons, starting wars, and robbing old women and taking over a country no matter what the cost. Though he had a father/son relationship with Marcus, he didn't seem to care that Marcus would burn out before he was sixteen. He also had no qualms turning Adam, Bree, and Chase into bionic superhumans of mass destruction, selling them to the highest bidder, whether they be dictators or mad Men. He had no qualms with harming Leo when they were enemies, despite him only being fifteen years old, considering him a "nosy kid" who constantly gets in his way. Douglas later left Marcus for dead so he could ensure his own survival. Despite his negative traits when he was evil, there was still a lighter side to him, as there were times when his sense of humor would overshadow the seriousness in a room. He still cared for his bionic children. He did what was best for his youngest creation, Daniel, by giving him up for a chance at a normal life and he did take on a stray dog, Otis, giving him bionics to save his life and he saved Chase from an avalanche (in this case, however, Douglas was attempting to manipulate Chase) and later protected the Lab Rats from Victor Krane saving their lives once. He obsessively loved his children, up to the point where he tracked their GPS chips. When he did capture Aram, Bree, and Chase in "Sink or Swim," he wanted to use them for scams but also develop a family connection with them, like making Mondays family game nights.

In most of his earlier appearances when encountering Donald, Douglas could be quite childish and acts like an immature younger brother trying to get back at his older brother. When they were reunited after fifteen years, Douglas and Donald first insulted each other by calling themselves by their embarrassing nicknames and they continued mocking each other. He stole money from Donald and only blew up his brother's lab to get back at him for taking Adam, Bree, and Chase from him. Later, when Douglas was with both Leo and Chase, they called Douglas out on his rivalry with their father. In the latter's case, Douglas pointed out he just wanted to get back at Donald, Chase wondered when both were just going to grow up, Douglas shouted in anger that he would "grow up when [Donald] grows up." Meanwhile in Leo's presence, after Douglas gloated Donald could not fix something he made (Bree's chip) and that [he won] again, Leo told him it was about Bree, and not about Douglas beating his brother. Apart from getting back at his brother through all these years, Douglas had to bury the hatchet for them to work together to fix Bree's chip. Eventually, the two moved past their petty grudge after Donald decided to give his brother a second chance.

During his one last attempt to control Adam, Bree, and Chase, Douglas enjoyed using the kids to torment his family, reacting mostly like a five-year-old tormenting his older brother. He was driven to do this is stemmed out of his rivalry for his brother, and, it comes from the fact that both Douglas and Donald were arrogant and childish. However, Leo spoke through to Chase, much to Douglas's frustration, and he later told Adam to attack Chase, but not enough to damage him. After Chase override the Triton App from Adam and Bree and Krane made it clear that he wanted them destroyed once Douglas fixed the App, it was made clear that Douglas didn't want to hurt them and allowed Douglas to reminiscent on his past actions. Between his appearances, Douglas tried reconciling with his brother, kids, and nephew, first by sending then friend requests, but they refused every time. Only Adam accepted it, as it appeared Douglas’s eldest son had begun to forgive him. When Douglas contacted them again, he was genuinely there to warn the family that Krane was a danger to them all. However, because Douglas tried killing Donald and his youngest son (Leo) and kidnapping Adam, Bree, and Chase, the family refused to trust him and didn't heed Douglas' warning. By this point, Douglas was afraid of Krane and turned to Leo because he was the first to figure out what Douglas and Marcus were up to. Unlike their previous encounter, Douglas spoke to Leo in a good-natured and friendly matter, convincing his step-nephew that Krane was a serious threat. Subsequently, he saved Adam, Bree, and Chase when Krane was about to kill them and in return, Chase saved his biological father by throwing up his Force field to deflect Krane's attack on Douglas. The man would have succeeded in killing Krane had his brother returned shortly after rescuing his wife and son. Donald tossed Douglas out of the house and the younger Davenport left in defeat.

Afterward, Douglas went into hiding and kept his distance from the Davenports until Leo approached him for help to fix Bree's bionic chip after she destroyed it. He also came to Leo's defense when Donald yelled at his son for disobeying him, telling his brother to “lay off the kid” because he was just trying to help. Douglas pointlessly argued with Donald until Bree’s Chip caused her super speed to go haywire and the two brothers solved the problem together. Afterwards, Donald chose to forgive Douglas from the past after Douglas apologizes for hurting the family, Douglas was invited to live with them for the time being. Since then, Douglas has been kinder and caring to his family, such as not bickering with his brother as much, giving the kids new bionic Abilities, such as Bree's invisibility, Chase's laser-Bo and giving Adam lung capacity and becoming close friends with Leo, such as enhancing his arm with bionics after it was crushed by a ceiling beam caused to land on him by Taylor, and finally had a chance at being a father towards his youngest son, Daniel, showing Douglas is a changed man.

### Powers and Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect:** Much like Donald, Douglas is a genius of multiple fields; he is even smarter than Donald, creating technology such as short-range teleportation, which Donald hadn't mastered yet. He also claimed and proved to be the better programmer. It was he who made Adam, Bree and Chase and gave them their bionics in the first place. He was also able to hack Eddy, Davenport Industries, and Donald's bank account all without being caught. Douglas has lots of intelligence on bionic abilities and he has shown capable of giving Chase his Laser Bo ability, Adam's Pressurized Lung Capacity, Bree ability to turn Invisible, and Leo's Energy Transference ability. Douglas even created a virus while thinking on his feet to fry all of Giselle's systems. However, he has trouble decrypting Victor Krane's software.
* **Martial Arts:** Just like Donald, Douglas is an accomplished fighter, able to take Donald on at an equal level. He claimed he was the better fighter of the two; however, this was not proven, as their fight never reached a climax.
* **Medical Knowledge:** Douglas is savvy about medical treatments. For example, is aware of common practices of how doctors deal with amnesic patients. However, the credibility of his knowledge is questionable as he never completed his doctorate, because he flunked out due to screaming at the sight of needles. He did show skill in repairing severely damaged limbs such as when he repaired Leo's arm after it was damaged.
* **Excellent Strategist:** Douglas is an accomplished strategist, able to come up with incredibly complex and brilliant plans quickly.
* **Triton App:** He can hack the bionic systems and takes control of the target, causes the victim's irises (colored part of the eye) to glow green. Can only affect the bionics circuits, not their human attributes, this weakness is exploited by Chase when breaking control of the Triton App, but faints almost immediately after.
* **Detective Skills:** In "You Posted What?!?" it is shown Douglas does have detective skills, and made careful observations while trying to investigate the natural gas pipeline.
* **Cooking**: Douglas went to cooking school as a result he can cook very well. He can even cook street food, when he became a vendor while hiding from Krane.
* **Impressions:** Douglas claims he does a killer Krane impression, but when he pretended to be Krane while trying to get Taylor to remember how to deactivate a doomsday app, she hoped that if she was going to explode, she would take out Chase and Douglas.

## The Series

### Season 1

Douglas is alluded when Donald tells his mother-in-law Rose that Adam, Bree, and Chase are his brother's children that he adopted after Douglas supposedly died. Fortunately, Rose buys it and accepts them as her new grandchildren.

Though he 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.

### Season 2

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

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.

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, but Perry quickly activated the fire alarm. However, Krane knocks them out afterwards and has S-1 apparently kills Leo, but only manages to crush his arm with a ceiling beam.

Douglas and Perry recovered, however the impact caused Douglas to sustain broken ribs. They heard Leo call for help and both attempt to remove it but neither can take it off the teenager because she cannot get a grip on it. 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 enhanced Leo's arm with bionics after learning from the doctors that he would never be able to use his regular arm again and added that Leo now has bionic abilities of 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, Douglas urges Leo to keep his arm a secret and agreed to train Leo with it.

## Relationships

### Donald Davenport

**(Brother, Former Enemy and Former rival)**

Though they grew up together, but the latter was often the one to overshadow Douglas and sometimes, used to bully him when he was younger, being not that different from their sons, Chase and Adam. He tries desperately to get back at his brother for taking his children and plotted to get them back. However, the brothers reconciled when they worked together to recreate Bree's chip.

Despite reconciling, Donald and Douglas continue to fight and have a relationship not so different from Adam and Chase's and was deeply concerned for his brother when he was sustained in critical condition. When it comes to the kids, Douglas claims they like him more than Donald because he gave them hidden abilities. Apart from this, Donald learned to trust his brother by letting him oversee the bionic Academy in his absence. During a conversation on the phone, Douglas promised not to tweak Leo, Adam, Bree and Chase's bionics like he normally did.

### Chase Davenport

**(Son/Adoptive Nephew/Former Enemy)**

Out of all his children, he appeared to connect with Chase the most, due to both feeling overshadowed by an older sibling and underappreciated, as he saved Chase from an avalanche. He offered to give his son Bree's speed and Adam's strength. However, he was manipulating his son the whole time. After Douglas escaped, Chase continued to hate his biological father but seemed to slowly forgive him, as he tried stopping Donald from throwing Douglas out of the house at least twice. Douglas later saved his sons and daughter from Victor Krane when he tried to kill them. Since re-creating Bree's chip and Douglas reconciling with his brother, Douglas and Chase began growing close and hung out more than Adam and Bree do with Douglas.

### Leo Dooley

**(Step-nephew/ Close Friend / Former Enemy)**

Initially, Douglas was highly annoyed with Leo's constant interferences with his and Marcus' plans and ordered Marcus to kill Leo, despite him being a fifteen-year-old. Despite their status as enemies, in season 3, Douglas came to Leo when Krane became unstable and he came to him when Leo needed Douglas to help Bree get her bionics back by recreating her bionic chip after she destroyed it. Since then, they have learned to get along better and become close friends, especially since Donald let Douglas moved into the Dooley-Davenport household and later came to care for Leo, such as making him a bionic arm after learning he's never going to be able to use it without bionic components. Douglas gave him a bionic arm after learning he would never be able to use his normal arm again and he trained Leo how to use it properly.

Since their friendship evolved, the two are more comfortable around each other, and now, Leo tells Daniel that Douglas is not that bad of a guy and told Daniel that his father was only trying to help. Douglas later gave Leo the responsibility to train Daniel, believing he could handle it; but was infuriated that Leo upgraded Daniel to the new bio-chip, after specifically telling him not to. Douglas later saved Leo from Marcus, knowing that it would be a fight his nephew could not win.

### Bree Davenport

**(Daughter/Adoptive Niece)**

She initially hated her biological father but learned to get used to him when they began living together after Donald let him move in. He helped fix Bree's chip and even gave her the new ability of invisibility. However, Bree does not trust Douglas, mostly because he steals Tasha's bracelets out of respect for her close relationship with Tasha.

### Daniel Davenport

**(Son)**

Daniel is Douglas' youngest son and child and someone he is rather protective of. He gave him up for adoption because he knew he could not raise a child while on the run. He reunited with his son when Daniel was thirteen and contacted Douglas, who was not ready to be a father. Despite this, experiences with Adam, Bree, and Chase taught Douglas to be a better father for Daniel, such as be honest with him, help him get used to his bionic abilities and give him advice on family.
