## History

Leo Dooley and Adam Davenport met each other in early 2013 when Leo accidentally stumbled across a secret elevator and found a lab within his step-father's basement. When the younger brother saw Adam use his bionics for the first time, Leo was immediately afraid of Adam, along with Bree and Chase, even screaming upon seeing them. However, Leo was more relaxed when Donald explained who the three siblings were and admittedly, both Leo and Tasha were disturbed by how Donald treated the kids, such as making them taste fiber pellets by having them fall into their capsules. Leo took them to his school and showed them the outside world for the first time.

Leo establishes that Adam, along with Bree and Chase, are his best friends and was sadden to see them gone when Davenport was going to send them to Facility X in the Frozen tundra. Adam acknowledges Leo as his and their siblings' only friend. Leo admitted that in their short time together, he came to love them, which Leo unknowingly admitted to Adam and the other Lab Rats when Leo thought they just robots at the time. Though Adam mocked him, Leo responded by slapping him in the face but when he saw it really was them, Leo immediately hugged him. Later, when Davenport and Tasha toldd Leo taht they sent the "robots" to a recycling department and went to rescue them. After seeing the kids use their bionics, Donald decided that the kidsd could stay and Leo was overjoyed, especially when he learned that Adam could make his own energy balls and considered that his life was "getting a whole lot better."

In "Leo's Jam," Adam and Leo (along with Chase) crush on the same mgirl. Despite winning Danielle's affections, Leo chooses to apologize to Chase and Adam for sabotaging their chances with Danielle and calls them his brothers for hte first time. Adam is touched by this and calls Leo the brother he never had, despite having Chase as a brother for the past thirteen years.
