Abigail "Abby" Lincoln, known by her codename Numbuh Five is a fictional character and a Kids Next Door operative in Sector V.
Contents |
[edit] Description
Her position is second-in-command of Sector V, though Numbuh Two was originally intended to be second-in-command (he turned it down as it would mean he can't pilot his own machines). Throughout the series it is hinted that she and Numbuh One have an extensive history together in the KND. Numbuh Five takes personal responsibility for Numbuh One's baldness, supposedly because he was captured in a past mission and she decided that the mission held greater precedent than his rescue. Ever since then, she has held a staunch no-man-left-behind policy. She and Numbuh One are generally regarded as two of the best currently active members of the KND.
Abby is frequently in situations similar to those faced by Indiana Jones. For example, in Operation: R.A.B.B.I.T., the first-grade class's pet rabbit was to be dipped in a chocolate volcano, similar to the pit of molten rock in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Abby's also chased by a huge ball of ice-cream in Operation: F.L.A.V.O.R., recalling the famous scene of Indy being chased by a ball-shaped boulder. Then in Operation: J.E.W.E.L.S. She is seen in a Raiders of the Lost Ark and Last Crusade position. She is a fanatic lover of candy and an expert on candy-lore and mythology.
Numbuh Five wears a dark blue t-shirt dress with a white stripe on the sides and sleeves, and white Mary Jane shoes. She wears a red hat, originally her sister's, which she considers precious, but occasionally throws as a weapon or tool. In the pilot No P in the OOL, she's shown wearing eyeglasses [1], and the official CN website describes her as such, however, she does not seem to be wearing them in any other eps.
She has a generally laidback personality and enjoys relaxing in her comfortable and stylish room on her off-time. She often speaks in the third person, using her codename to refer to herself (e.g. "Riiiight. Uh, Numbuh 5 will be in her room..." from Op C.A.B.L.E.-T.V.). Initially Numbuh 5 was listed as being born in France by official sources. For the longest time viewers had been somewhat perplexed by this as Numbuh 5's family and herself seem very distinctively African American. Numbuh 5's father is a clear parody of Bill Cosby, speaking in a very similar voice, using similar speech patterns, wearing a sweater, and being referred to as a doctor. However, in a recent episode, C.H.O.C.O.L.A.T.E., Five and Cree's mother appears on screen for the first time and has a distinct and rather thick French accent, showing the two seem to be of mixed heritage and finally proving this long uncertain fact about Five.
Despite what her school grades might say, Numbuh Five is also intelligent. The only reason she gets F-'s is that she tends to have problems getting her homework turned in, with either the Six-Gum Gang stealing it from her (Op R.O.B.B.E.R.S.), or her rival and next door neighbor, Valerie (in the form of a were-dog) eating it (Op H.O.U.N.D.). In the latter case, it has been seen that Valerie (and possibly her teacher) may be conspiring to prevent Abby from getting a deserved spot on the school's honor roll.
Numbuh Five often reprimands Numbuh Two for his terrible jokes and puns. Although as shown in a few episodes including C.H.O.C.O.L.A.T.E. she seems to show a kind of love for puns herself, but when none of the other KND are present.
She loves candy and junk food, as shown in several episodes. She keeps a secret stash of candy that Stickybeard attempts to steal. Numbuh 5's other candy-related rival is Heinrich von Marzipan, although she did save him in L.I.C.O.R.I.C.E. (in fact, some fans suspect the two formerly had a romantic relationship before the infamous "Guatemala Incident").
She has an older sister, Cree, who is a teenager (thus a major villain) and works for Father and the Delightful Children.
In Op M.A.U.R.I.C.E., it is revealed that Numbuh 5's hat was given to her by Cree before she betrayed the Kids Next Door. This episode also spotlighted Numbuh 5's fear of following the same fate and better showed Cree's reasons for why she became what she did. Numbuh 5 is also revealed as having something of a brother/crush relationship with former Kids Next Door operative Maurice, who now is involved in a top secret branch of the Kids Next Door that's occupied by kid-friendly teens. Numbuh 5 as of now is one of the few KND members in the world who knows of this sector's existence and has been sworn to secrecy over it.
In Op D.I.A.P.E.R., it has been stated that Abby also has an older brother who has children of his own. This has yet to be focused on, however.
In Op Z.E.R.O. it mentioned that Numbuh Five was the one that got Numbah One into the K.N.D.
Both Numbuh Five and Cree are voiced by Cree Summer
