Personality[]
History[]
Together with Fred, Dick posed as a farm hand on a farm just outside Metro City which had been taken over by Dr. Claw. The large silo next to the farm housed a stolen missile that Claw intended to launch at Metro City. When Inspector Gadget arrived, Fred and Dick tried to smother the Inspector by covering him in sheep as he lay on couch to take a nap. Later, they thought Gadget had realized they were M.A.D. Agents and tried to run away from him while in reality all Gadget wanted from them was some gas for his Gadgetmobile. After climbing up the silo, Fred got stuck in the door at the top of the silo, but Dick pushed him through. Dick and Fred informed Dr. Claw that enemy agents (three police cars) had arrived on the scene, and were ordered to keep them out. While Dr. Claw continued the countdown to launch the warhead, Dick and Fred said they would try to keep the police out, but were unable to stop the police from entering the silo.[1]
Together with Jarvis, Abdul, Squirt and Pops, Dick posed as a member of Amazon Annie's tribe while stationed in the Amazon jungle. As such, he wore only a grass skirt and sandals and had a small bone decorating his nose. After Inspector Gadget accepted Annie's invitation to attend the tribe's Amazon sacrificial ritual, Dick and Abdul worked together to turn a large stone wheel attached to a chain. This contraption slowly pulled Gadget, seated on a stone throne, into a fire pit. The two men were scared off by a brown gorilla (actually Brain in disguise) but soon resumed their efforts. However, Dr. Claw himself ordered Amazon Annie to stop the liquidation as he had need of Gadget at his Aztec Temple hideout. Disappointed, the entire M.A.D. tribe was left behind in the jungle.[2]
Posing as a gardner at the Bide-A-Wee Health Spa, Dick noticed a young girl with pigtails hiding in the bushes and grabbed her. He took her to Madame's office, where Dr. Claw (via video phone) ordered to lock the girl in the basement. After Madame presented Gadget with a cake filled with dynamite prepared by M.A.D. Agent Jarvis, Dick tried to run away from the building together with Madame and Jarvis before the cake exploded. But thanks to Brain and Penny's intervention, the cake fell out of a window, causing a large explosion outside. The three M.A.D. agents ended up in a smoking crater and were arrested by Chief Quimby and several police officers.[3]
Dick replaced a naval crewmember on a cruise ship taken over by M.A.D. Agents. He also posed as a waiter during a party on board the ship. Penny spoted him exiting a secret door hidden in a potted plant. Later, Dick reported to Dr. Claw in person, together with Squirt and Abdul. This time he wore a stolen sailor's uniform.[4]
