Bio

 * Breaking the Bank: The driver of the bank truck. He and Winston have been partners for many years. Ted has always been the driver.
 * Stealing the Diamond: He quit working as an armored truck driver after a certain incident.

Breaking the Bank
Along with Winston Davis, he is seen riding in the money transfer truck when they spotted the bag where Henry hid in, in the latter's attempt to sneak himself into the bank. Ted then said how did they lose one money bag, with Winston telling to put the bag to be safer.

Ted saw Winston putting the money bag into the Truck, making him the second witness for the case. However, unlike Winston, he wasn't involved with the trial. This is most likely because it was Winston who suggested to put the bag in the truck in the first place.

Escaping the Prison
In the legacy version of Escaping the Prison, Ted makes a quick cameo during the Rope fail. When Henry gets hit by the truck, you can see Ted inside driving it for a frame.

Ted also makes another cameo at the end of the legacy version of Lawyered Up where he passes by driving the truck with Henry quickly chasing after it. It is possible that he is driving the armored truck although the windows are practically translucent so it's left ambiguous.

Stealing the Diamond
Ted left his job as a bank truck driver and became a night security guard, just like Dave Panpa. During Henry's diamond heist, he is seen conversing to a fellow security guard named Jacob Rose, talking about a certain person's arrest being primary the reason he quit his bank job, because his job as a museum night guard is "safer."

In the "Intruder on a Scooter" route, he is interrupted by Henry with his scooter running with the Tunisian Diamond, remarking "crap."

Infiltrating the Airship
Ted makes a quick cameo as a picture in the intro, when Captain Galeforce goes over the military scripts and evidence with a page with him reporting about the attempted bank robbery by Henry.

Breaking the Bank

 * "Huh, how did we lose one?"

Unseen Burglar & Intruder on a Scooter

 * "...and after that, they just up and arrested him!"

Intruder on a Scooter only

 * "Yeah. That's when I decided I should probably get a different job. I figured night guarding is much less dangerous than driving a-- (notices Henry escaping with his scooter with the diamond) ...crap."

Trivia

 * Despite his absence in the Remastered EtP, it is possible that Ted the driver of the bank truck in Escaping the Prison's remastered Rope fail and Lawyered Up ending.
 * The translucent windows however make the truck driver hard to see leaving this ambiguous and up to player interpretation.
 * Ted has the third-most game appearances out of any supporting character, with the first being Dave and the second being Rupert Price, also with his former partner Winston Davis following being at fourth.
 * He is the first museum security guard to appear.
 * He also speaks the first line in the game.
 * Though Ted has made several appearances in the games, his shoe color is still unknown as we never really see a full shot of Ted's body (with the exception being the legacy version of BtB).
 * When full screening in the Legacy version of StD, a brief shot at his shoes can be seen, confirming his shoes are grey.
 * However, other guards of the museum that had grey shoes had their shoe color changed to black in the remaster, so Ted's new shoe color is likely black.
 * Due to their similar looking-hats, Ted and Winston have been mistakenly thought of as policeman during their time of working at the Bank although it's been proven that the duo were not police or law enforcement of any ind and simply just transported the Bank's money. This is shown with the brighter bank hat they wore with an 'S' symbol on the badge in comparison with the darker and symbol-lacking police hats. Ted and Winston have also never been mention to have police affiliation of any kind making it obvious they simply use to work for the Bank.
