Mr. Williams

"We're not trying to make excuses, but try to look at it from the boys' point of view. You see, when their mother died, I had to try and be a mother and a father to them..."

Mr. Williams is the widowed father of two lively young sons, Bob and Tony. They live at Charity Springs, in Australia's Northern Territory, where he runs a weather station that just happens to be a whole lot more...

The Williams family appears in Cry Wolf.

Biography[]

Williams' "Dark Room"[]

Under the guise of a weather station, Mr. Williams actually runs a satellite tracking station (Dunsley Tracker) and is engaged in top secret research for the military.

To keep the boys unaware of its true nature, Mr. Williams refers to his concealed room containing his tracking equipment as the "Dark Room", and tells the boys it is full of easily breakable equipment so they must keep out.

Worrying News[]

After the false alarm, Scott takes the boys back to Tracy Island for a guided tour. But the story makes headlines in the newspaper, which worries the boys' father...

Break-in[]

The Hood attempts to break into Williams' control room, but Williams gets a message to Colonel Jameson, who orders him to destroy the top-secret photos from the spy satellite, as it will take three hours to get help out to the remote station. Williams suggests that Jameson call International Rescue, who can get there within thirty-five minutes.

The Hood hypnotises Williams via a video screen before he can destroy the photos, burns his way through Williams' security door with a welding torch, and then escapes with the spy photos in his jeep.
