Oliver Thompson is a character who invented weapons for Will Harangue, so he could destroy Ben Tennyson (and get it on camera). He also was the cameraman for Cash and JT
Appearance[]
Oliver is a well-built man. He wears a white suit with a blue shirt and black tie. He is bald in the middle of his head and his hair is black on the sides. The second time he showed up, he wore a beige jacket and white shirt.
Personality[]
Oliver usually only thinks about his job and doesn't care about others. When he worked for Harangue Nation, he was very submissive to Harangue and even a little afraid of him. After he was fired, he made every effort to find a subject for filming JT and Cash's show, but eventually dropped out of the project.
History[]
Oliver was the person that recorded Ben's aliens in a motion scan for a supposed video game, which was actually a scam to provide combat data for a robot named the Stalker. He is also presumed to be the creator of the Stalker, and it is unknown if his real name is actually Oliver. In the beginning of the episode Video Games, Oliver wore a white suit with a purple shirt and had a gold chain around his neck, wearing a black wig and fake goatee.
He reappeared in Reflected Glory not working for Will Harangue (after being fired for his failed robot), but working with Cash and JT He is also wearing a regular outfit instead of his lab coat. He was working on making them famous by videotaping them as they pretend to be Ben's leaders. They admitted the truth to their viewers when Psyphon was going to destroy them when he thought that what they said was true, so he would not destroy them. When Cash and JT used an alien energy decoupler to defeat Psyphon before he could destroy Ben, Oliver's camera's power ran out, and the viewers could not witness their heroic action. After the real heroes left, Oliver quits his job with the boys, telling them that the “show's over.”
He seemed to never really hate Ben Tennyson, nor does he seem to be a villain. It is likely he was never a villain to begin with. He was only doing his job.
