Along withChief BurnsandMayor Luskey,Doc Greene hadDoctor Moroccoexpelled from Griffin Rock. Greene subsequently became lead scientist on the island.The Reign of Morocco
Doc Greene attended the dedication ceremony for the town's newrobotic rescue teamwith Francine.Family of HeroesHe was hanging upside-down in an attempt to increase his mental acuity when he received a call from his daughter's friendCody Burns,who asked about any volcanoes on the island. Doc Greene filled him in onMount Magmaand suggested that they try to deal with the lava problem by gradually releasing the pressure.Under Pressure
The Doc's experimentalsolar carwent out of control, carrying him through the streets ofGriffin Rock.Luckily the Rescue Bots prevented any major damage, and stopped the car. Doc Greene regarded the test as a success, apart from the control issues. While he was working on a newspaper dispenser to replace the one he ran over,Dani Burnsvisited and he was able to supply her with an old scoop claw he had in storage.Hotshots
While filling parade balloons with helium, Doc Greene was accidentally whisked into the air when the lobster balloon he was filling got loose. He was rescued by the Burns family and their robots, and overnight developedfloatium,a more reliable version of helium, which he used in all of the balloons. Unfortunately the floatium ended up turning a tank full of lobsters intoflobsters,and Greene had to quickly develop a new compound to get rid of the floatium.Flobsters on Parade
Doc Greene built aSETIdish forHuxley Prescottso the reporter could search for aliens. Unfortunately Prescott failed to follow safety instructions, and when Greene tried to turn it off, it was out of control and in danger of destroying the island. Fortunately the Burns family and their robots destroyed the dish.The Alien Invasion of Griffin RockHe took Cody and Frankie toGriffin Rock Zooto celebrateEarth Day.Walk on the Wild SideGreene had somenanitesstored in his laboratory for some reason.Cody on Patrol
Inspired by an accident on the island, Doc Greene created theTurbo Cycleand gotKadeto be a test subject. When Cody wanted to try it instead, Frankie talked him into instead baby-sitting theRobo-Babythe doc had developed to record baby-related data. Greene was so impressed with the results, he let Cody test the cycle, and gave the Robo-Baby to Kade for a week.Four Bots and a BabyWhen Cody wanted to engineer a snow storm, Doc Greene happily supplied him with a weather machine which they set up in the town square. A snowball accident damaged the machine, and the doc had to take it back to his lab to repair it.Christmas in JulyWhen the island's automatic lighthouse failed to come on, Greene copped the flack fromMayor Luskeyand soon discovered that the lighthouse's electro-magnetic sensors had been damaged. The sensor beneath hisfloating research labwas also attacked, and he downloaded the video from it to discover amechanical sharkwas behind the attacks.Deep Trouble
After several break-ins at the lab, Doc Greene reprogrammed the dinosaur from themuseumas a butler/guard dog. Unfortunately someone implanted a virus inTrex,which then infected the island's mainframe, and Greene had to disinfect the computer while dodging an out-of-control Trex. He succeeded in doing both that and purging the virus from Trex. Unfortunately Mayor Luskey, furious about the whole affair, relieved Greene of his post as lead scientist.Return of the Dino BotGreene and Frankie went to stay atMrs. Neederlander's bed and breakfast, and Greene occupied himself building bird houses. He and his daughter were in his solar car when it went rogue, though they got out before it attempted to flatten the mayor and was crushed by theMorBot.The Other DoctorHe found the reason for the failure in the remains of the car—a canister ofnanites—but it wasn't enough to convince the mayor, and he began packing to move to the mainland. As it turned out, he didn't need to go, as Cody and Frankie found evidence incriminating the recently-returned Morocco, who had been behind the recent technology failures, and Greene was reinstated as lead scientist.The Reign of Morocco
He and Frankie gave a demonstration of theMinimizerat theHall of Inspirationduring which he recklessly endangered Mrs. Neederlander. When the device was later damaged during a break-in, he fixed it more or less so that Cody could return the Rescue Bots to their normal size.Small BlessingsCody consulted Doc Greene when he found a plate with strange markings and they dug up a recording ofProfessor Anna Baranova.After the Professor herself was brought up from the sea floor where she'd been for the last 28 years, Greene set about building her a replica of theMidgardwhich Frankie took as a sign he liked her.The Griffin Rock Triangle
Doc Greene gave Chief Burns a new experimental handheld holographic generator to try out. Amazingly, it did not explode.Rules and RegulationsAs well as inventinganti-gravity sneakers,Doc Greene replicated samples ofSquilshbrought back fromMars,and conducted tests on it. The tests went swimmingly until a sample shocked with electricity seems to come to life and started eating things. Greene was forced to rapidly trying and come up with a way to neutralize the threat, though it was ultimatelyGraham BurnsandBoulderwho worked out that alternating current was the key. Greene later gave Cody a Squilsh-powered lava lamp to give Graham.You've Been Squilshed
While conducting inventory in the archives, Doc Greene encountered sometracers,which transported him to a dark place that turned out to be a cavern beneath Griffin Rock. As more people were teleported in, Greene took part in an effort to dig their way out, but ultimately they were all freed by the Rescue Bots.CountdownDuring a ghost invasion, the Doc and Frankie got the chance to try out hisSpectral Vapor Filter,though it turned out that the "ghosts" were just holograms.The Haunting of Griffin RockDoc Greene tried to help out Frankie by busting some moves for her student film. When she remarked he was a bit rusty, he retired to the Hall of Inspiration to practice, unaware that the jukebox he was using was triggering a subwoofer stored underground which was creating tremors.Shake UpWhen Cody required some sort of protection, Greene was inspired by the repulsor technology in Cody'shoverboardto create arepulsor badge.Though he warned Cody not to use it too much at full power, the boy did anyway, and Doc Greene had to supply neutralizer gloves to the Rescue Bots so they could stop the badge.Rescue Boy
After Cody inadvertently discovered atime machinein a hidden room, Doc Greene found that all it required was a sufficiently powerful energy source. He used nuclear power, however during the initial test, as well as Dither going through, the portal drew the Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie through as well.It's a Bot TimeChief Burns filled Doc Greene in on the fact that the Rescue Bots were actually aliens, so they could bring inOptimus PrimeandBumblebee.Greene was soon reunited with his daughter.Bot to the Future
With the help of Cybertronian technology and Boulder's technical help, Doc Greene was able to develop new and moredangerousinnovative technology, including anInspiration Counterto keep track of his inventions. TheVacuum Acceleratorthat they constructed turned out to be too erratic, transporting objects to seemingly random locations.Road TripGreene was dismayed to learn that Mayor Luskey had taken experimental growth formula from the Best Left Forgotten room to make the trees in Frankie'sSky Forestgrow faster. The formula resulted in the vegetation growing out of control, and Luskey suggested that Doc Greene keep the Best Left Forgotten room locked in future.Sky Forest
When a piece of hisstasis machinewas stolen and the remaining piece accidentally aged Cody into an adult, Doc Greene set about trying to configure the remaining part to reverse the aging without much success. Luckily the missing piece was later recovered.One for the AgesGraham consulted Doc Greene for a list of the cargo manifest when theS.S. Isoldewas discovered.Tip of the IcebergSometime before, Doc Greene built a virtual reality game. He promised Cody and Frankie that they could test it out, but a snow storm trapped him on the mainland. Chief Burns attempted to call him when Cody and Blades were trapped in the game, but the snow storm blocked out all reception.A Virtual DisasterDoc Greene was among those hypnotized by cellphones. He tried to lure Cody into a trap, but the boy managed to elude the townsfolk. Later, after everyone was freed from their mesmerized state, he turned up to help fixBlossom Vale.Spellbound
Following Huxley Prescott's attempt at rigging a reality show, Doc Greene was stuck having to deal with a dam full of Squilsh.Prescott's BotsHe had the opportunity to test theCollision Foam Cannonhe'd developed with Boulder when a plane was heading for the laboratory, and luckily the invention worked. He later fired up theNightmare Imaging Deviceto help Kade with some nightmares, only to end up creating a horde ofgremlinswhich threatened Griffin Rock.Blame the Gremlins
Doc Greene developed aMagnetic Insta-Grill,which worked perfectly until Mayor Luskey overloaded it with "Magic Meat", at which point it shot down a blimp. Greene later identified the meat asFo-Foo.Feed the BeastHe volunteered to be on of the crew of theAsgardspace elevator, though he almost forgot the launch and had to be reminded by Frankie. He also forgot the air sick bags, which resulted in him missing lunch. When theAsgardwas damaged by an asteroid strike, he and Graham sheltered in theAsgardgreenhouse until they could be rescued by the Rescue Bots.Space Bots
When the rescue team brought him anmechanical bull,Doc Greene opted to use theBeam Boxto send it to theIsland of Misfit Tech,but inadvertently sent Cody as well. After Heatwave and Kade were sent through, Doc Greene was finally able to retrieve them all.The Island of Misfit TechDoc Greene oversaw installingVigilin one of the lab's underground sections, and had to beef up the defenses as part of the requirements. Unfortunately Vigil then took over the town, trapping Doc Greene and Frankie in the lift until its defeat at the hands of the rescue team.The Vigilant Town
The Burns family borrowed Doc Greene's floating lab to get toWayward Island.In Search of the Griffin's NestWhen the island was threatened by a tornado, Doc Greene saw it as the perfect opportunity to test his experimentalTornadon't.The device successfully stopped the tornado in its tracks, though Doc Greene later discovered the tornado was the product of a weather machine operated by Doctor Morocco.ChangesOnMidwinter Morning,Doc Greene and Frankie were happy to find theRider of Midwinterhad left them a loaf of bread.The Riders of MidwinterDoc Greene inventedBoil Coilsto heat water, though they proved effective in attracting thePower Plantertoo.Movers and Shakers
Doc Greene had Cody and Frankie test out theSki-neakershe'd invented, and as a result he and Heatwave had to rescue them from a rogue wave. When a series of water-related issues cropped up, he and Frankie worked on triangulating the location of the cause, a Cybertronian relic.Odd Bot OutHe developed thePhase Bitfor a drilling company, theCEO of whichhe hadn't met. He designed the hover train that would be theGriffin Rock Express,however there wasn't time to calibrate the booster before the train's maiden journey. As a result, the train was sent out of control when the Mayor ordered it to speed up against Greene's advice, and though he worked to disable the malfunctioning booster, he and the others aboard had to be rescued by the Rescue Bots and Frankie, the latter of whom had borrowed the Phase Bit for superheroing purposes.The Griffin Rock Express
Doc Greene took part in a game ofRescue Ball.When Mayor Luskey later turned up suffering from apparent amnesia, Greene took him to DoctorMcSwain.Double VillainyWhen the tunnels under the island started collapsing, Doc Greene supplied the rescue team with foam mines and Phase Bits, which they used to restore the tunnels and prevent the island from sinking.Rise of the Heroes
When a pterodactyl was sighted on Mount Griffin, Doc Greene investigated and had to call for help when the creature mistook his hang glider for a mate. He tracked the pterodactyl back toWayward Island,and took Trex along for protection, however when he found a group ofdinosaurs,Trex became trapped by a rock fall and Greene required help from Heatwave to escape the island.Land Before PrimeAfter Optimus went feral as a result of his new dino mode, Doc Greene, Boulder, Graham and Frankie worked on diagnosing the problem.Big Game
By giving the Imaging Device more power, Doc Greene was able to get it to materialise objects from his waking mind, leading to a plethora of copies ofMister Pettypawsappearing. He later carried out a demonstration with Kade, and while it initially blew a fuse, the machine produced four copies of Kade. Greene puzzled over how the clones persisted despite possessing no obvious power source until it was discovered they each had a short-circuiting comlink.Too Many Kades
During the ten-yearly appearance of theS.S. Phantom Voyager,Doc and Frankie were out on the floating lab recording its appearance. When it vanished with most of the rescue team on board, Doc Greene was able to analyze the readings and determine the energy matched the time machine found under the Griffin Rock laboratory. Ten years later, when the ship reappeared, he passed on his findings to the returned rescue team, so they could reverse the time machine's effects and return to the present.Phantom of the Sea
Doc Greene created a huge force field dome to cover the island when it was threatened byHurricane Opie.The dome worked, but the stabilizer supplied to complete it was used by Vigil to return to the island. Vigil used the dome's atmosphere generator to put Doc Greene and the rest of town to sleep. After Vigil's defeat, Chief Burns opted to let Doc have his beauty sleep.No Place Like DomeDoc's work on studying the MorBot backfired when Morocco was able to use the creation to escape from jail.Bugs in the SystemWhen an attempt to use ananti-gravity patchwas less than successful, Doc Greene instead went up in the space elevator to complete theBinary Diagnostic Link.A close encounter with a nebula swapped everyone's minds, with Doc inhabiting Chief Burns' form. He found working with Burns's stubby fingers difficult, but eventually came up with a solution and everyone was swapped back into the correct body.Switcheroo
After accidentally contaminating his clean room with his breakfast, Doc Greene upgraded Dither's CPU. One thing led to another, and Kade accidentally ingested some of thescrubmitesDoc was using to sanitize the clean room. As a result, Doc used the Minimizer to shrink the rest of the rescue team so they could go inside Kade and retrieve the six missing scrubmites.Bot-Tastic VoyageKeen to have Frankie and Baranova getting on together, Doc Greene left them on the floating lab with the excuse he needed to get more mustard. Unfortunately Quint Quarry abducted Baranova and attempted to use her as leverage to get Greene to supply him with five dinobots. With the help of Optimus and the Rescue Bots, Greene supplied five robot dinosaurs, and was taken to the island to "complete" the last of the dinobots, as Blades had encountered problems transforming. There, he, Blades and Cody managed to find Baranova and Frankie, and rescued the Autobots from Quarry as well.Quarry's Quarry
When the rescue team brought a frozen caveman back from Wayward Island, Doc Greene discovered he was still alive and was able to thaw him. Their attempts to help "Ira"acclimate to modern life were hampered byMrs. Dumont,a visiting investor, resulting in Greene having to accompany Ira to a formal dinner held by the mayor.Did You See What I Thaw?After a fire at the drive in, Doc Greene developed a new projector using the same technology from the Imaging Chamber. Unfortunately he and Frankie then had to scramble when a power surge resulted in the projector creating real-life Kaiju, and eventually succeeded in returning the creatures to the film.The Attack of Humungado
The mayor had Doc Greene create miniature souvenir Rescue Bots forBot Appreciation Week,however Evan and Myles tampered with the creations, allowing them to turn the toys into kleptomaniacs. Doc Greene later reprogrammed them to clean up the mess they'd created.All Bots Great and SmallWhen Cody started experiencing repeated time, Doc Greene broke off his energy drink experiments to help. After preventing Cody's third time jump, Greene discovered Cody's new pocket watch contained a time-travel crystal.Time After Time
The mayor had Doc Greene and Graham to assessDrilling Platform number 6to see if drilling could be resumed. Doc found that the cap on the oil shaft needed replacing, but before he could do so, the cap released an oil spill, and he and Frankie had to be rescued from the resulting inferno, losing the floating lab in the process.Turning the TideDoc Greene was able to repair the memory core fromBlurrandSalvage's ship.The New RecruitsWhen a solar flare knocked the island's power out, Doc used a potato-powered calculator to work out when the tech would recover, though he spotted a more pressing problem through his telescope — a rogue satellite about to hit the island.A New Hero
Doc Greene was able to identify somewoodpeckersBoulder found as a species thought to be extinct. He leg-tagged the specimens and was later able to track them when they leftBlossom Vale.Endangered SpeciesHe created some invisibility cloaks for his magician sisterMaura the Magnificent,only for them to be stolen shortly after he gave them to her.More than Meets the EyeHis testing of theTone-O-Tunerhe'd developed was put on hold when Cody and Frankie pointed out it would be cheating if they used it in theGriffin Rock Idolcompetition. He was unaware when the device was taken from his van byPriscilla Pynch,and later ended up causing the entire town to sing.I Have Heard the Robots Singing
Intending to propose to Baranova, Doc ventured into the disused mine to find a diamond and also stumbled on somereactalinewhich Chase helped him obtain for testing purposes. After an accident with a quantum crystal caused the reactaline beneath the town to teleport the entire island to theArctic,Doc Greene raised the forcefield dome.Now and ThenDoc manufactured a large amount of floatium, which was used to make the island float. On his daughter's prompting, he proposed to Baranova who accepted, though the pair went through a life-threatening experience when the ground gave way under them. Once the island had been floated back to Maine, Doc, Frankie and Baranova magnetized the reactaline to return it to its normal place.Today and Forever
