History:

2015

Frederick comes to town looking for Felicia, as he was her doctor in the mental hospital in Switzerland. He immediately butts heads with Dominick. It was soon revealed that Frederick is the father to Meggan and Lukas. Lukas is gay but Frederick doesn't know as he is scared of his father's reaction. The family bought the Wilkins estate after Reese's death. He also had an odd reaction to seeing Daisy. Frederick, meanwhile, tried to hide his feelings for Felicia, mostly because she is his patient. After Leah died in Lake Tahoe, Frederick realized that Felicia was off her meds and worked to get her stable. She was thankful and he was upset that she still had feelings for Dominick. Frederick also befriended Savannah and she became like another daughter to him. He was concerned that she started to date Chris as Frederick didn't trust the man who everyone thought was Andrew's father. Frederick then spotted Chris and Trenyce together and he thought something wasn't right. He bugged Trenyce's office and overheard them talking about their plan to use Savannah to get Andrew back. Chris, meanwhile, proposed to Savannah and she accepted. On their wedding day, Frederick played his recording of Chris and Trenyce's plan. Savannah was devastated and slapped Chris before she stormed out.

2016
Frederick comforted Savannah in the wake of her failed wedding to Chris. He advised her that she needs to make some positive changes in her life. Later, Savannah revealed to Frederick that she was at peace with everything that had happened and that she had forgiven Trenyce and Chris. He warned her against that. Meanwhile, Frederick was trying to help Felicia remember the events leading up to Leah's death. Dominick suggested that Frederick put her under hypnosis. Once Felicia agreed, Frederick started the process. While under, Felicia admitted to loving Dominick. Wanting to have a chance with Felicia himself, Frederick kept this information mum. When Felicia did remember, she confronted Bob. Frederick tried to support her. Lukas, meanwhile, continued to hide his sexuality from his father. Frederick attended a dinner party that Daisy threw, unaware she had hopes of finding out Frederick's past with Jemma. Jemma and Frederick spoke at party and agreed not to let anyone know about their past, unaware that Meggan overheard. Daisy, meanwhile, continued to think something was going on. Jemma told Frederick that the secret was killing her. On New Year's Eve, Daisy saw the two of them speaking and demanded to know the truth. In the wake of Savannah's death, Frederick vowed that Chris and Trencye would not get Andrew. When Savannah's will was read, she left full custody of the boy to Frederick, who gloated to Chris and Trenyce that they would never see him again. Frederick, meanwhile, continued to put Felicia under hypnosis. He started telling her that she didn't love Dominick; to his surprise, Felicia told Dominick she didn't love him anymore. Dominick was surprised, as was Eva. Eva ended up breaking into Frederick's office and learned about his past with Jemma, and read his notes about his sessions with Felicia.

2017
Frederick was shocked when Eva revealed that she knew he had been brainwashing Felicia into believing that she didn't love Dominick anymore. Frederick replied by telling Eva that if she kept mum, she could have a chance with Dominick. Eva refused, but she agreed to play along after Dominick proposed when his marriage to Felicia was finalized. Frederick knew that he had to ensure Felicia didn't remember, so he made her a play list on her IPod, with subliminal messages underneath the music. He was thrilled when Felicia continued to believe that she didn't love Dominick anymore. Frederick, meanwhile, continued to get bothered by Chris and Trenyce about seeing Andrew, since he took custody after Savannah died. Knowing that he didn't want Andrew around Chris or Trenyce, Frederick sent the boy to a boarding school. Chris and Trenyce were devastated. They ended up hiring Meggan to help them find their biological child; Frederick asked Meggan to send them on a wild goose chase, but she refused. Frederick vowed not to give up. Frederick and Felicia, meanwhile, continued to grow closer as Eva and Dominick planned their wedding. They started sharing a few close kisses. On the day of the wedding, Frederick calmed Eva's nerves after she saw a close moment between Felicia and Dominick. At the wedding reception, Trenyce (who had listened to Felicia's IPod) revealed the truth about Frederick's brainwashing to Tyler, who exposed Frederick. Dominick and Felicia were livid and vowed that Frederick would never hurt her again. Frederick kept mum about Eva's role in the plan and told her that he wouldn't say anything if she helped him get Felicia back. Eva reluctantly agreed. Frederick forced Eva into helping him get Felicia back into his good graces by threatening to reveal that she knew about him brainwashing Felicia into not loving Dominick anymore. Frederick was crushed when Felicia refused to forgive him. He told her, however, that he had a surprise for her that would change everything. Daisy, meanwhile, asked Frederick over to the mansion to finally get to the bottom of his past with Jemma. Frederick knew that no one would ever know what really happened between them. To prevent Daisy and Vinny from asking more questions, he offered his winery in Santa Barbara as a venue for their wedding. Daisy accepted, but Jemma warned him that it was a bad idea. Frederick welcomed the quests to Santa Barbara shortly after, and Jemma was on edge. Meanwhile, Frederick had convinced Meggan to send Trenyce & Chris on false leads in hopes of finding their biological child by telling her she and Jeff could also use the winery as a wedding venue. Frederick still wanted revenge on them for their treatment of Savannah. Trenyce and Chris showed up at the winery, and were shocked to see Andrew. Andrew lashed out at them for killing Savannah; Frederick vowed to them that they would never be close to Andrew again. The day of the wedding, a huge storm hit and created a dramatic backdrop. Andrew told Frederick that his surprise for Felicia was missing, as a mysterious figure lurked around. Paige revealed that she thought she had seen Leah, but Frederick passed it off as nothing. The wedding's, meanwhile, took place. Afterwards, Jemma fainted. When she awoke she revealed that’s he had been there before. Frederick tried to stop her from saying anything more, but she told him that she had to tell the truth: she couldn’t lie anymore. Daisy was shocked to learn that Jemma used to Meggan and Lukas' nanny and her husband was the wine maker. Frederick caught his wife in bed with Jemma's husband and as an act of revenge, he raped Jemma, which resulted in her pregnancy with Daisy and Danielle! Frederick refused to admit that he raped Jemma, but Daisy slapped him anyways. Meggan and Lukas were shocked to learn that they had a half-sibling. The next day, Frederick was in more hot water as Leah was revealed to be alive! He explained that he had wanted Leah to be a surprise for Felicia, but Leah had amnesia. Felicia and Dominick lashed out at Frederick for keeping Leah away for so long. Back in Twin Peaks, Lukas then came out to Frederick. Frederick was horrified that his son was a homosexual and threatened to disinherit him if he didn't get help. Lukas and Meggan were horrified at their father. Meggan was so disgusted, she ended up telling Chris and Trenyce the truth about the false leads. Half the town confronted Frederick one night about all of his lies. Then, a mysterious gunman entered his office and shot Frederick! He was fighting for his life. The police tried to question him, but he couldn't say much because he was in bad shape. On New Year's Eve, Frederick asked for the police, but at midnight, someone broke into his hospital room and smothered him to death.

2022
A presumed dead Frederick was revealed to be alive and well! He was the Chief of Staff at Raven's Meadow, meaning he was Bryce's boss and working with Vinny. Victoria discovered that he was alive and he realized that he would have to silence her to prevent her from telling anyone. Bryce knocked her out but was quickly horrified to learn that Frederick was going to give her a lobotomy to shut her up. Just before Frederick was going to preform the procedure, Bryce attacked him, knocked him and escaped with Victoria. Frederick and Vinny worried that everything they worked towards would be ruined if Bryce and Victoria spilled the beans. Vinny realized that Bryce likely took Victoria to the Calimo cabin so Frederick gave him a gun and sent him there. After Vinny was shot to death, Frederick left Raven's Meadow and went into hiding. He first went to the cabin, but ended up at the old Victors estate. He saw Meggan and Lukas' plead for him to come home on TV, but he knew that he had to make sure everything was perfect before he revealed himself. He also had a blonde person in a room in the mansion.

2023
Frederick continued to reside at the old Victors estate as someone he could hide from his family as he didn't want to reveal himself until he was ready too. He continued to work on a master plan, and looked a picture of Barbara Mills while he spoke to a blonde woman. The blonde woman turned out to be an alive Eva, who was suffering from amnesia! At the Roboto gala, Frederick revealed himself to the town; his children demanded answers from him and he agreed to tell them everything in time. Leah visited him and wanted answers about her missing child; he agreed to tell her after they did their own paternity test. Frederick hosted a dinner party for his children, where he revealed that Leah is his biological daughter. Lukas, Meggan and Daisy were unsure if this was good news or not. Post this, Frederick told Leah that he doesn't know where her missing child is and couldn't offer her anymore help. She vowed to find the truth. Felicia, meanwhile, started to see Barbara Mills. It turns out that Barbara was actually Eva, wearing a mask to make her look like Barbara that Frederick created as he wanted a way to get Felicia back in his life. Eva agreed to pretend to be Barbara since Frederick told her that in turn, he would help her regain her memory. "Barbara" convinced Felicia to visit Frederick to thank him for saving her life; at the mansion, "Barbara" then suggested to Felicia that she marry Frederick, which she agreed too. Dominick stopped the wedding with the news that Eva is alive and posing as Barbara! Felicia stormed off and Frederick knocked out Dominick, just as Abby walked in! Frederick told Abby that he needed to ensure that Dominick didn't remember that Eva was alive or his plan would fail; he told Abby that she needed to drug him to ensure he doesn't remember, or her marriage would be invalid. Abby was skeptical but agreed to do it. Frederick, then, saw Victoria and Eva together; he locked them in a room and gassed them to knock them out. When they awoke, they were in a padded cell in Raven's Meadow. Bryce confronted Frederick about Victoria missing and he lied that he had no idea where Victoria was. He did remind Bryce, however, that he knew that Bryce switched baby Olly and that Abby was his biological mother. Frederick was miffed when Dominick and Tyler brought Felicia to Raven's Meadow because she was still claiming to have been seeing Barbara Mills but they also had a restraining order filed against him. Bryce took over as Felicia's doctor, but Frederick told him that he could still expose his role in the baby switch of Olly. Bryce agreed to drug Felicia according to Frederick's wishes. Shortly after, however, Frederick realized that Victoria and Eva had escaped the padded cell at the hospital. Both Will and Bryce realized that the women were there; Bryce confronted Frederick and told him that he would stop treating Felicia unless he told him where Victoria was. Frederick told him what happened, and Bryce was furious. Shortly after, Bryce and Will disappeared and Frederick worried that the four of them would expose some of his deep secrets. Frederick, however, visited Felicia and was reunited with her. Jeff and Leah, meanwhile, visited Frederick and pleaded with him to help find their son; he refused. After the truth about Eva being alive came out, Frederick realized he had to act quickly. Shortly after, Tyler and Leah learned that there was a fire at Raven's Meadow and that there were no survivors, meaning Felicia and Frederick were presumed dead!
