Todd Kane

Todd Kane is a character in Baywatch: Back on the Beach.

He was the ex-boyfriend of Taylor Walsh and the main villain of the ninth season.

Taylor had begun dating Todd. She believed that he had changed since he filed a bogus drug charge again former lifeguard, Adam Crosswire. However, when Taylor discovered Todd had lied to her about,--. a deeply hurt and betrayed Taylor had finally had enough of his lying, conniving ways and furiously broke off her relationship with him, but Todd continued to work at Baywatch, determined to not have it taken away from him and persuaded Taylor's teenage daughter, Wendy to move in with him after she decided to move out of her mother's house.

To get back at Taylor for breaking up with him, Todd made her life difficult by taunting her and spreading lies about her to the new manager, Chase McCord even filing a complaint against her. During a rescue when his victim accidentally gave him a bruise on his face, Taylor confronted him in his tower and told him to stop lying about her. Todd screamed at her that she ruined his life and he was doing the same to her. Taylor argued that it was Todd's own fault for his lies and deceit.

He then ran out of the tower accusing Taylor of physical assault and threats to Chase who had just arrived outside the tower. As a result as well as Todd's other charges, poor Taylor was suspended. Taylor's 20-year-old son, Nick was the only person who knew that Todd was setting up his mother. When Wendy heard about her mother's suspension, she confronted Todd about it. It was revealed that Todd showed no remorse for putting Taylor through hell and when Todd went out, Wendy packed her things and stayed at Hobie and Ashley's place.

Following Taylor's suspension, Chase later confronted Todd saying that he had given her complaint to the chief and told him he knew his history of his work at Baywatch including the bogus accusation about Adam Crosswire doing drugs (which was a lie, clearing Adam and resulting in Todd's firing) and if he was lying and using this to get back at Taylor, Todd would have to deal with Chase.

Determined not to lose her job at Baywatch and knowing that Chase is a serious threat, Todd slipped some drugs into Chase's coffee and puts the container in his locker to presumably get him fired. However, Nick Williams, who was drinking the same coffee in a cup like Chase's inadvertly drank Chase's drugged coffee by mistake. The drugs harmed Nick and puts him in the hospital, causing him to miss the Catalina race. When Chase and Wendy investigated Nick being drugged, they discover Todd was behind it and he was trying to get Chase drugged. Plus, they found his bottle of prescription in Chase's locker. Wendy theorizes that Todd knew that Chase was on to him so he decided to drug Chase and put the pills in Chase's locker in order to get him fired from Baywatch. Same thing he did to Adam when he was about to tell Taylor about how Todd endangered a victim during a rescue. After Nick recovered from a near fatal drug overdose, He, Wendy, and Chase confronts Todd again followed by the other lifeguards and tells him he knows that he tried to drug and frame him but only drugged Nick by mistake. Chase tells Todd that his evil actions not only nearly ruined Taylor's career and reputation at Baywatch, but almost got Taylor's son killed and has had enough of his lies and nasty behavior. Chase reveals that he had talked things over with the chief including the drug incident that nearly killed Nick and she is now behind Chase 100%. He then forces Todd to quit Baywatch.

Todd refuses and insults Nick and Wendy, causing both of them to walk up to Todd and they both give him a hard punch in the nose and Wendy throws the pill container at him, telling him that he had just gotten his ass kicked, publicly. Afterward, he leaves Baywatch for good, while Taylor is reinstated and Wendy moves back in with her mother.
