Biography[]
Although she is the main villain of the first season, she only appeared in three episodes. Dr. Denman first appears in the episode "The Denman Affair", where Lewis McCartney applies for a job with her so he can use her high grade technology to study a D.N.A sample of Cleo. Lewis had a crush on her, much to the dismay of Cleo, who takes an instant dislike of her. Dr. Denman finds the sample when Lewis carelessly leaves it in the lab when he goes home for the day. Dr. Denman studies it and adds water to it, then observes the cellular mutation of the sample. Dr. Denman persistently inquires Lewis about the sample. She writes a paper called "H2O: Just Add Water" (which is presumably where the series gets its name). Fortunately for the girls, Lewis sees the article on her computer and erases it.
Dr. Denman leaves the town on a 6 month trip and then reappears in the finale two part episode "Dr. Danger" and "A Twist in the Tail". Dr. Denman finds out the girls's secret and traps them in the Moon Pool, planning to do some tests on them, Harrison Bennett helps her but wants no harm to come to the girls. Zane frees them, with the help of Lewis, but the girls come back to the island to give up their powers during the Lunar Eclipse. Dr. Denman then begs the girls not to give it up but they refuse to listen. The girls only lose their powers temporarily for 12 hours, but Dr. Denman believed it to be forever and gives up. Afterwards, Dr. Denman is never seen or again mentioned for the rest of the series.
