Clark is widely considered by many to be a lolcow. | ||

Clark initially found Daniel during the [[Las Vegas Arc]], to which he then "played the long game" until he managed to gain the title of Daniel's manager. His "firm's" name is watermarked on the Folsom County court hearing footage, as well as several other videos. Since then, Clark has been involved in many incidents, such as [[the Golden Hotel Incident]] where he convinced Daniel that he and Grace had bought a room at the hotel. When it was found there was not one, it ultimately resulted in Daniel causing damage to property inside the establishment and screaming profanities at the staff. | Clark initially found Daniel during the [[Las Vegas Arc]], to which he then "played the long game" until he managed to gain the title of Daniel's manager.

On May 1, 2024, phone calls between Clark and Daniel surfaced, revealing that Daniel was [[Second Jail Arc|arrested by the FBI]].
