Alexander Dubrow is the main antagonist of the Goosebumps book Deep Trouble. He is Dr. Deep's assistant who eventually betrays him and his nephew and niece Billy and Sheena Deep to an unseen criminal employer.
What makes Him a Hate Sink?[]
- He betrays his boss and said boss's nephew and niece, despite all of them treating him very well.
- He brings a quartet of criminals to the boat to steal away the mermaid so the five of them can bring her to their boss, who will most likely treat her very poorly.
- He allows his four cohorts to dump Dr. Deep, Billy, and Sheena into a water tank and push it into the ocean to try and drown them all. This makes him an accessory to triple attempted murder, including two counts of attempted child murder. While it's likely his four cohorts would have turned on him and tried to kill him too had he objected to their decision to kill the Deep family, it's hardly a sympathetic situation at all, as he shows no real remorse for leaving them to die. Furthermore, Billy is very confident that Alexander could take on the four men by himself, so if he truly had any qualms with what his cohorts were doing, he could have stopped them.
- Despite later betraying the Deep family, before that, he had the gall to tell Billy that if he freed the mermaid before his uncle could take her to the zoo, it would break Dr. Deep's heart.
Trivia[]
- Alexander is the first Goosebumps villain to be a normal human with no supernatural qualities.
