Personality[]

Gordon is a man who is virtually always in a state of stress or panic, often due to fear of being condemned to perpetual bachelorhood over matters as trivial as being able to solve puzzles.

Professor Layton and the Curious Village[]

Gordon was one of those who sent out a request to Layton, asking for his help in locating the Reinhold fortune. At first, he was unable to really explain the situation further upon Layton and Luke's arrival due to the escape of Dahlia's cat, Claudia. Gordon advised them to simply do as Dahlia says.

Upon the apparent murder of Simon, Gordon was visibly concerned and very insistent that he played no part in the crime. He urged Layton to find the killer as soon as possible for fear that he would be the next target, or that the blame could be pinned on him.

Gordon frequently asked for Layton's help during with puzzles their stay in St Mystere, usually stemming from his inability to find a girl. He almost always blamed his difficulty solving these puzzles for his loneliness, at one point revealing that he speaks to his stuffed animals. He once stated that there is nothing women find more alluring than competence.

Gordon was also present while Layton exposed Inspector Chelmey for being Don Paolo in disguise. At no point was he seen outside of the manor parlour.

Though wealthy, Gordon is extremely preoccupied with his finances. Maybe it's because of his frugal nature that he just can't seem to attract many interested ladies, something else he frets about constantly.
