Biography[]
Randall Jenkins served as a body double for U.S. President James Collins. When James was murdered under mysterious circumstances, the Central Intelligence Agency was reluctant to let this become public knowledge. CIA agent Warren Pryce placed Randall in the position to temporarily take the President's place until such time as they could resolve the mystery and stabilize the situation. [1]
The dying possessed killer doll known as Chucky, who also happened to be the one responsible for the President's death, accosted Randall and held him at gunpoint. He brought him to the White House situation room where he forced him to authorize the use of nuclear weapons. Jake Wheeler managed to get into the situation room in time to shoot Chucky through the heart, which allowed Jenkins to abort the launch of most of the missiles.
The next day, Randall conferred with the White House staff and prepared a fake public disclosure that he had been diagnosed with brain cancer and would be forced to step down. Randall filmed the farewell video, but Pryce had no intention of letting him leave the White House alive. He ordered an underling, Frick, to administer Jenkins a lethal injection.
Sprinting out of the room, Randall ran down the corridor and into the elevator, but Frick was right behind him. They wrestled for the needle until blood started to drip onto them from above. The blood quickly began flooding the elevator, trapping Randall and Frick inside. Before drowning in the blood, Randall saw the ghost of Charles Lee Ray laughing at him. By the time the elevator arrived on the first floor, both men were dead on the ground, drenched in blood. [2]
