History
Early life

When he reached level 13, the A.I., Unagami, convinced him to enter the game. His doing so caused Vast Industries to shut down Prime Empire and Dyer to abandon the project and go into hiding.
While inside Prime Empire, Scott lost three lives and went into hiding from the Red Visors to avoid racing in the Speedway Five-Billion for 30 years inside a garage hidden by a Level 999 Stealth Barrier.
Prior to Prime Empire
While Jay was hiding inside Scott's car, he hears Scott being confronted by the Red Visors. Scott then takes out the Red Visors before escaping in his car.
Scott is chased by the Red Visors and at some point, Jay pops out of the truck and onto Scott's front window. Scott allows him to ride as they dodge most of the Red Visors except one when they crash into him.
Scott presumedly defeated the last Red Visors before introducing himself to Jay, saying that he had been waiting for him for a long time.
Scott tells Jay that they much leave immediately so they disguise themselves. They reach a closed-off area guarded by two Red Visors. To get past them, Scott and Jay use fake code names but are caught when the real Red 27 came for duty. Jay and Scott are chased by the Red Visors and are forced to fight. Despite being outnumbered, Jay single-handily defeats all of them which impresses Scott. They then hide in Scott's garage to avoid detection.

Superstar Rockin' Jay
Scott holds up his laser blaster to the ninja after they wondered near his garage. Nya says the secret password, and Scott lets them though his secret garage. He introduces himself to the ninja and has been hiding the League of Jays in his base. During his explanation, Kai accidentally kills himself and would respawn moments later thinking he has unlimited lives in Prime Empire, but Scott tells the ninja that they only receive four lives in Prime Empire. Scott touches Kai's pad showing that he has one life remaining. Scott then shows them to Superstar Rockin' Jay, the leader of the League of Jay.
One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
Scott went inside his garage while Unagami told the Red Visors to go after him.
Racer Seven
Scott shows the ninja his vehicles they can use for the Speedway Five-Billion. When the ninja asked what happened to one of the cars in the last race, Scott replies that the driver was doing well with the car until they ended up being cubed, as well as telling them why he doesn't want race.
When Lloyd returns from his observation, he talks about Racer Seven and Scott explains that Unagami programed her to lose. He tells Lloyd to not bother with her since she'll never change. However, Lloyd still goes after her.
Racer Seven arrives outside of Scott's garage, and the ninja plus Scott are there to greet her.
The Speedway Five-Billion
Having only 1 life left, Scott tracks the Red Visors as they somehow found the base. He opens his garage and begins attacking the Red Visors with his gun, allowing the ninja and Racer Seven to escape unharmed. Realizing there is too much to handle, he attempts to duck away from the attacks, but is shot and is cubed.

Description
Scott has a recolored version of the combination hat and hood piece originally created by Jack Davids of the Hidden Side theme, but with a different symbol on the hat. His head, torso, and leg prints are all exclusive to him.
Personality
Scott is a good person, as shown when he chose to protect Jay and the other ninja during their time in Prime Empire. Despite this, he was also overly cautious and bitter, as he had been trapped in Prime Empire for a very long time.
With only one life remaining, he refused to enter the Speedway Five-Billion race and was adamant to take any risks, to prevent being cubed. However, after spending time with the ninja, he chose to become more of a hero, giving his life to helping the ninja evade the Red Visors.
