Andy Martin is a minor character and the main villain in the final episode of Jem. Met in a casino in Las Vegas, it was assumed he could be Ba Nee's real father.
History[]
Thanks to Riot's father, Jem obtained the names of three men that could possibly be Ba Nee's father. One of them was Andy Martin, a veteran ex-soldier who was at the roulette table losing all of his money in a casino in Las Vegas when Jerrica and Shana found him. While he wasn't cooperative in the beginning, once he was approached by Jerrica a second time, this time as Jem, he apologized for his earlier behavior and agreed to follow them to the Starlight Mansion, where he immediately pretended to be Ba Nee's father.
With pretensions and lies, he managed to take Ba Nee alone to an old abandoned zoo, where he finally dropped the charade and revealed her his true intentions: To take her hostage and ask Jem for a good ransom to let her go. Ba Nee realized her true father would never do such a thing and finally convinced the whole thing was a hoax, she tried to escape. However, Andy was able to catch her and imprisoned her in one of the zoo's cages.
Andy then proceeded to call Jem by phone and tried to extort her, asking her for a big sum of money in order to let Ba Nee go. Knowing Ba Nee's life could be in danger if they arrived with the police, it was decided that only Jem and Martin (another one of Ba Nee's possible fathers and who had just arrived to the mansion) were the only ones that would go to the zoo, telling the rest to bring the police shortly afterward.
Jem and Martin arrived to the abandoned zoo and went different ways to cover more ground. Jem encountered Andy and explained him that all the money she made went to support the foster girls at Starlight House. After hearing this, Andy grew irritated and started chasing Jem through the zoo. Jem then asked Synergy to project holograms of a group of gorillas around Andy who, frightened, tried to escape. At that moment, Martin, who had just reunited with his daughter after saving her from falling from a ravine while trying to escape, subdued Andy and locked him up in one of the zoo's abandoned cages.
