The evil Giselle Vickers
Giselle Vickers (Jessalyn Wanlim) was a recurring villainess from the fourth and final season of Lab Rats.
Backstory/Introduction[]
Giselle Vickers was introduced in the two-part episode, "Bionic Action Hero," as a film director who was looking to film a movie about the bionic siblings, with actor Troy West accompanying her. Her brief backstory only revealed that she once worked alongside Douglas Davenport, and that they once dated until Giselle dumped him, though Douglas continued carrying a torch for her and attempted to win her over by mentioning his past bionic invention, Marcus, adding that he had Adam, Bree, and Chase's abilities.
The midpoint of Part 1 revealed that Giselle was planning to destroy the bionic humans, with Troy being a conspirator and acquiring the information regarding Chase's bionic chip, which he later gave to Giselle. Bree--while invisible--overheard Troy and Giselle discussing their plans and later stopped a shoot that would have seen Troy kill the bionics, while revealing that she had heard Giselle's scheme. At that moment, the evil Giselle revealed that she had been using her movies to fund her android army, but due to being overshadowed by the bionics, she planned to eliminate all bionic humans and instill Chase's intelligence into her androids.
Part 2 saw Giselle and Troy abduct Chase after Bree smashed the former's laptop that contained Chase's schematics. The plan was to rip out Chase's chip, while also planning to replace Troy with her new creations, as Troy was an old model. Adam and Bree arrived at Giselle's lab to rescue Chase, only to see Chase's body and believe that he is deceased. While Giselle mocks their grief, the real Chase arrived and revealed that he made his escape and that "Chase" was an android duplicate. The villainess sent more androids after the group, only for Douglas and Leo Dooley to arrive and destroy them all, after which Troy appears and attempt to kill Giselle. He fired a shot at Giselle before Bree destroyed him with water, but the episode's end revealed that Giselle survived with an injured left shoulder.
Return and Demise[]
Giselle's return in "The Vanishing"
Giselle returned in the two-part series finale, "The Vanishing," as she (now sporting a shorter hairstyle and a black outfit) revealed herself as the culprit behind the abduction of the entire bionic academy, including Bob and Daniel Davenport (the latter being Douglas' bionic son). She expressed disappointment that Adam, Bree, and Chase weren't in the chamber with them, and after catching Daniel contacting the others, the villainess chased Daniel with an electric whip and placed him back in the chamber. Part 1 ended with the trio, along with Douglas and brother Donald Davenport inside Giselle's lab, where they met Daniel--only for Giselle to appear and reveal that "Daniel" was actually Marcus Davenport, Douglas' other son.
As Giselle revealed in Part 2 (and as shown in the final scene of "Bionic Action Hero"), Giselle found Marcus' remains and resurrected him, after which she had Douglas and Donald tied up while Adam, Bree, and Chase were placed in the chamber. While the bionics did escape, their encounter with Giselle had the maniacal villainess revealing that the chamber destroyed their bionic abilities, and she later unleashed her whip in an attempt to destroy the siblings. Though Chase disarmed Giselle thanks to Adam's distraction, Giselle unleashed a second whip and wielded it towards the trio. The siblings dodged the whip, which later wrapped around Giselle and bisected her.
