Timothy Lawrence

Identity

Real name: Timothy Lawrence Alias: Jack (formally) Gender: Male Race: Human Group Affiliations: Hyperion (formerly)

Background

Timothy Lawrence, formerly known as "Jack", is a look-alike body double of Handsome Jack. He was imprisoned in The Handsome Jackpot casino for several years following Handsome Jack's death. He retains his appearance, though he has a crack on the left side of his mask, and he uses his actual name, not his alias. According to ECHO logs in Jack's Office and as part of "Jack'" ECHO logs granted as a personal item at the start of the game, Jack's real name is Timothy Lawrence. He was elected to undergo the major reconstructive surgery performed by Dr. Autohn to pay off his student loans. He naively went through with it, having to fake his death and become nothing but Jack's doppelganger.

History

He was part of the group of vault hunters that helped Jack open the vault on Helios While looting the Handsome Jackpot, the Vault Hunters hear a cry for help. Pretty Boy is sending Loaders after someone in a makeshift hideout. After defeating Pretty Boy's Loaders, it is revealed that Timothy Lawrence is trapped in the casino and has been since the death of Handsome Jack. His mask is cracked, and his right hand has been grafted with a Hyperion-brand cybernetic authorized access key dubbed "The Winning Hand". After finding out that Timothy is also trying to get into Jack's Tower, the Vault Hunters team up with him upon Moxxi's approval (who still seems to openly distrust him). Because Timothy's Winning Hand grants him full access to every facility in the casino, Pretty Boy kidnaps him, and the Vault Hunters must rescue him. After destroying Pretty Boy's robot suit, the casino activates the "Screw Everyone I'm Rich" Protocol, which starts piloting the casino into a black hole. At first, Timothy tells the Vault Hunter to simply escape, however Moxxi refuses to abandon him and the Vault Hunters agree. Since he is still stuck, Timothy cuts off his cybernetic hand using his laser prison cage and gives it to the Vault Hunters to override the protocol. After averting the casino's destruction, he collapses. By the end, Timothy who now has one hand, finally asks Moxxi's why she agreed to the date that she had with "Jack" (a detail he has brought up a few times). He did so disguised as Jack, so he was confused why she agreed to have a dinner date with Jack when "He was the worst". Moxxi admits to having known it was never Jack she met up with, otherwise she wouldn't have shown up, something that makes Timothy happy to learn.

Extra

Timothy suffers from acrophobia, better known as an abnormal fear of heights. He was legally forbidden to mention his real name after his surgical change, he only said it rhymes with "Jimothy", stating there is a bomb in his face that will detonate if he says his real name. He can currently say his name all he wants. He used to be a redhead and have freckles before becoming Jack's body double. He cares for his mother, but she doesn't return the sentiment. To become Jack's body double, Timothy's death was faked. His mother laughed when she found out, but Timothy tries to tell himself that she was actually crying on the inside. Pretty Boy refers to him as "Timmo". Timothy was injected with some of Handsome Jack's DNA, causing him to compulsively act like Handsome Jack at times. Timothy's Hyperion designation is Doppleganger 21-C. Timothy has been trapped in the casino for seven years. Timothy has acted in movies as Handsome Jack under the moniker "Timothy Doppleman". It is implied that they are pornographic films and Jack forced him to participate. After Handsome Jack was scarred in the Vault on Elpis, he branded all his dopplegangers to match his current appearance. As a result, Timothy resents Lilith for scarring Handsome Jack. Timothy is bisexual, as he is seen to have a crush on Moxxi, and has also slept with Trent, a man in the Handsome Jackpot casino.
