History[]
Night at the Museum[]
He is the deuteragonist. He is very kind to Larry Daley and acts as a father figure to him after getting him away from the conflicting dioramas. Roosevelt is the one who taught him about the Tablet of Ahkmenrah. Theodore has also shown to have a romantic interest in Sacagawea.
On Larry's second night, Theodore Roosevelt breaks up a slap fight between Larry and Dexter.
When Cecil Fredericks, Gus, and Reginald steal the tablet and lock Larry in Ahkmenrah's exhibit, Larry calls for Roosevelt to help get them out. Theodore however thinks he can't help Larry and has him use his wits since he is not like the real Theodore Roosevelt (despite Larry saying he can't do it). After Larry gets out with Ahkmenrah's help and rallies the exhibits, Theodore Roosevelt watches Larry from one of the balconies (it's likely Theodore regretted his choice of not helping Larry and Nick after possibly learning that Larry and Nick escaped with the help of Ahnkmenrah). Later, Roosevelt gets sliced in half inadvertently by Cecil with the stagecoach and Sacagawea lights a fire to heat his wax half together.
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian[]
In Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, Theodore Roosevelt tells Larry that he, Ahkmenrah, Rexy, and the Easter Island Head will remain at the museum after it's remodeling while the others will be sent to the archives in Washington DC.
Later on, at the National Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution, Larry came across a bust of Teddy. He was very jealous of "New York Teddy" for having a body and a horse. The Teddy bust said that he would help decipher the code on the Tablet if Larry scratched his nose for him because he doesn't have any arms He did help, but his decipher was useless and when Larry told him that, he got mad and told Larry to see if New York Teddy's horse would lick it.
