In Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two, Clock competed on The S! until his elimination in "The Seven Wonders of Goiky" with 2,152 votes, originally placing 35th overall. However, due to Liy and Pencil joining TPOT in "Category One", he ended up placing 37th overall.

BFB: Prior to joining The Losers!, Clock acted very self-righteously, being quick to condemn Liy, Ice Cube, Bracelety, and Teardrop, despite those last two doing nothing wrong. He was also slow in forming a truce with Liy and snapping at her when she tried to touch his clock hands to shake them.

When Clock joined his team, he began to act in a more calm and sophisticated manner, and he was very eager to help his team during multiple challenges, such as launching the basket, allowing Needle to use his clock hands to break open jawbreakers, and using his ticking motions to move his team's swing.

He also volunteered to investigate what was cracking the basket in "Four Goes Too Far", showing that sometimes his eagerness to help gets in the way of his proper judgement or common sense.

Clock is also seemingly a character of order and is a stickler for the rules. He relayed to Four in "Enter the Exit" which characters were dead and which were eliminated. Although Stapy simply wanted to stay to watch the competition and see Foldy again, Clock insisted on him being eliminated.

TPOT: Upon meeting Winner, he leaves his friends to join Winner on The S!. Clock started to develop a more obsessive nature, as he was clinging onto Winner during challenges, and preferring to talk to them and just stand near them, instead of helping his team with challenges, causing Winner to be more uncomfortable around him. However, after the events of "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", Clock has stopped obsessing over Winner, and they now seemed to be neutral towards each other. However, In "The Seven Wonders of Goiky", Winner acknowledges to Clock that the team would be better off without him, which makes him very upset, Two tries to help him make amends with Winner, but he does not. He continued to feel upset about their relationship and even felt more upset when he was forced to be an assistant chef to Four and X.

Clock has been shown to have a desire to make people happier than he is, as he revealed to Winner in "Oneirophobe's Nightmare," that the reason he was so obsessive was that he didn't want Winner to feel forgotten and irrelevant as he felt when his previous team forgot to recover him for over a year.

Clock appears to be a bluish-grey and white minimalist wall clock. His fastest hand makes one revolution a minute and fast clock hands can be triggered by daylight savings time.

(Like most contestants, his limbs are black lines with the hands being round circles and his feet being slightly squashed oval-looking circle shapes. His eyes are black ovals. It's important to note he only has legs and no actual arms.)

Strong Clock Hands: In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Clock's Hands are strong enough to launch a basket to X. According to the Official Character Guide his clock hands are "infinitely powerful" when moving naturally according to the time.

Daylight Savings Speed Boost: In "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", due to Daylight Savings, his clock hands spun fast enough to spin "The Losers" swingset due to them jumping one hour ahead.

Clock may seem stingy, demanding, and annoying, but he wants to do well in challenges. Specifically, his adept clock hands have helped in multiple team victories. Because of this power, Clock doesn't like when people touch his clock hands.

Clock stands up for those who have been wronged, especially if they've been wronged by Liy. He now has a truce with Liy, but Ice Cube barged into that truce as well, so now everything's weird.

Did You Know?: Clock can change the position of his hands whenever he wants, but if he waits for them to move naturally, they are infinitely powerful.

His clock hands usually sit at an 11:05 position by default.

The reason why Jacknjellify made Clock have no arms is because if he did, he will have two sets of hands, which will get confusing, so to avoid that confusion, he was made with no arms.

In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Clock shows that he doesn't like his clock hands getting touched.

There is an official wall clock shaped like Clock, available on RedBubble. It can be purchased here.

His clock hands are shown to be very strong as they moved X's Baskets and the large swingsets with little effort. According to the Official Character Guide, they become weaker when Clock moves them manually.

Both of Clock’s only lines as a non-contestant get referenced in future episodes. ^ Clock stating that "Watchers are wannabes" in "Enter The Exit" is a direct reference to his first line, "Watches are wannabes." ^^ Clock saying "That’s good to know" in "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?" is a reference to his second line.

Clock is the first contestant to be screeched twice by Four.

In "Questions Answered" and "This Episode Is About Basketball", he makes ringing sounds when it's time for Cake at Stake. ^ This may have been a reference to "Get in the Van", where Clock's face also displays a time for Cake at Stake. ^^ His clock hands never seem to indicate a consistent time for Cake at Stake to start. In BFB 8, his clock hands are almost in the same position that they always sit in, and in BFB 9 and BFDIA 5a, they show that Cake at Stake starts at 3:00 and 4:00 respectively.

In Clock's TPOT pose, his hands are in the "2:00" position which represents the theme of TPOT.

Clock's design seems to be inspired by Tony the Talking Clock from Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, who is also a blue clock as well.

"Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters" marks Clock's first time killing another character.

Gamma ray bursts make him feel nauseous, as he stated in "Gardening Zero".

In "Oneirophobe's Nightmare", Clock is implied to have autophobia, the fear of isolation.

Clock is the only contestant to join a team with a celebrity (or a former one) on it, in BFB he was in The Losers! then in TPOT he was in The S! with Winner.

Competition: Seeing as bringing back Four was considered an official challenge in "B.F.B. = Back From Beginning", Clock is the first and only contestant (not serving as host) who has ever announced a contest.

Clock, Cake, Eggy, Pillow, and Taco are currently the only contestants who have competed on multiple teams but never with a former teammate.

Clock has played a role in every single instance where a team he was on lost. ^ In "Four Goes Too Far", Clock was the last contestant with twinkle when time ran out. ^^ In "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", he tried to have Winner perform for Two last minute, even though Yellow Face was initially meant to. ^^^ In "The Great Goikian Bake-Off", Two was under the impression that the cereal was vomit-flavored, but Clock tells them it’s actual vomit, which results in a 1/10 score.

Clock holds the record for the least votes to stay when eliminated with 2,152 votes, beating Naily's 2,286.

Clock, Cloudy, Eggy, and Naily are the only contestants who've been eliminated with less than 3,000 votes to stay in a single episode.

Clock is the first TPOT contestant who wasn't immediately sent away after being eliminated.

Clock, Eggy, and Cake all followed the exact same pattern as competitors: ^ In BFB, they joined The Losers! and survived one elimination before quitting for TPOT. ^^ In TPOT, they survived their first Cake at Stake, but were eliminated at their second. ^^^ They were all eliminated first before the other losing team did Cake at Stake. ^^^^ None of them were eliminated through ordinary means. Clock was allowed to stay in the hotel, Eggy was faded away, and Cake was crushed to death by Two and had to be recovered. ^^^^^ Coincidentally, they were all eliminated in back to back episodes, from TPOT 6, 7, and 8.

Clock is one of two contestants who were sent to the Hotel's kitchen after their elimination, with the second being Gaty.

Comparisons: Clock is one of the three contestants who have a blue and white color scheme, the others are Pen and Fanny.

He and Fanny are pretty similar in many ways. ^ Both can act moody and demanding. ^^ Both have a blue and white color scheme. ^^^ Both had major design changes. ^^^^ Both are armless. ^^^^^ Both have no nicknames. ^^^^^^ Both are self-working machines that aren't counted as mechanical minds. ^^^^^^^ Both have something spinning in their faces. ^^^^^^^^ Both were originally recommended characters who had the chance to be in BFDI. ^^^^^^^^^ Both are probably battery powered because Clock is a wall clock, and Fanny doesn't have a cord to connect to an outlet. ^^^^^^^^^^ Both are in The Power Of Two. ^^^^^^^^^^^ Both also switched from BFB to TPOT, specifically after the BFDI was replaced with A BFB. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Both of their names are five letters long. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Both of the logos for the teams they compete on have blue as a main color. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Both are on the two teams in TPOT that lost 3 members first. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Both of their teams were up for elimination in The Great Goikian Bake-Off.
