He dated Daphne to make himself look like a nice guy and kidnapped a hair dresser, a publicist, a therapist and a plastic surgeon to form a posse to make him a great actor. Baylor also planted a tracker into each of them to know where they are at all times.
Crybaby Clown was caught in a trap by Mystery Incorparated only to escape because Daphene didn't come. It was then the Clown started his plan of kidnapping and piloted the jet. It was foiled by Mystery Incorpated and Baylor's ruse was uncovered.
