eason 4

Danny is first introduced as Liberty's somewhat annoying, immature brother and one of J.T.'s best friends. Danny's sister, Liberty, is in love with J.T. Yorke, but Danny and J.T. are friends. Danny is mad at J.T. for dating his sister and he thinks J.T. isn't good enough for Liberty. Danny and J.T. fight and Liberty is mad at J.T. about the fighting. Danny feels sorry for his sister and makes sure that Liberty and J.T. make up.

eason 5

Danny is the first one to find out that J.T. got Liberty pregnant. He gets mad at J.T. and is determined to make J.T. pay for his mistakes. He does that by making J.T. do his homework (including taking care of a baby for family planning). Later, Danny realizes that he should be supportive and does so.

eason 6

In "The Bitterest Pill", Danny becomes suspicious of what's going on between Toby and Liberty when their friendship gets closer after J.T.'s death.

eason 7

Peter, believing that him and Darcy had sex and not knowing what to do or who to tell, tells Danny and Derek. Since they can never keep a secret, they tell the whole school. Danny gets into a fight with Lucas (a Lakehust student) because Lucas insults J.T. by saying J.T. "asked for it (being stabbed)". After the fight, Derek and Danny get into an argument in Media Immersion, causing Darcy to tell them to be quiet. Mr. Simpson over hears and they all get detention.

In a later episode Peter, Danny, Derek, and Rachel work together on a "How to" video. Both Danny and Derek like Rachel and after she rejects Derek she asks Danny out. Derek comes over the next day saying that they need to "dump" Rachel because she rejected Derek. Derek then realizes after both Danny and Rachel have turtle neck sweaters on, that Danny "stole" Rachel from Derek ending their friendship. Derek tries to get even with Danny and ends up apologizing to him in front of the class in the project. Later, Danny starts a band with Sav, Peter, and Spinner called Studz. They did a live performance but didn't do very well.
