Griffin, better known as Clark or Clark & Associates, was one of Daniel's most notable managers, along with being a troll who, under the guise of being a lawyer for the VanderWaal family, became a self-proclaimed "assistant helper" of Daniel's, despite not helping Daniel very much at all. He is also the manager who has spent the most amount of time with Daniel, managing him for a whopping 10 months. Clark is now considered by many on the subreddit to be the next lolcow.

Clark is very controversial, mainly for fueling Daniel's dangerous delusions of being in contact with Grace VanderWaal and her family, getting his associates to role-play as Grace and other famous people across several discord servers, and on a lesser scale, convincing Daniel that he was attending classes at UCLA. He is also known for gatekeeping content of Daniel, leading Daniel into potentially dangerous situations where he has freaked out in public such as the Golden Hotel Incident and the Olive Garden Incident, financially enabling Daniel by supplying him with cash and gift cards, and being behind every call made to Daniel whilst he was in jail.

Clark initially found Daniel during the Las Vegas Arc, to which he then "played the long game" until he managed to gain the title of Daniel's manager. His "firm's" name is watermarked on the Folsom County court hearing footage, as well as several other videos. Since then, Clark has been involved in many incidents, such as the Golden Hotel Incident and the Olive Garden Incident both wherein he convinced Daniel that he and Grace had bought a reservation at said establishment. When it was found there was not one, it ultimately resulted in Daniel causing damage to property inside the establishment and screaming profanities at the staff.

On December 17th, 2023, Clark was doxxed by one of Daniel's most prolific managers, Flexburger, after he did an interview with LarsonLeak, a channel Flexburger himself owns. Despite his identity being exposed, Clark still opted to manage Daniel, unlike many others who had quit after having their identities exposed.

However, on February 28th, 2024, Clark vanished from the Daniel Larson community and demanded for personally identifiable information about himself to be removed from his article from this very wiki, so people could not track him. It was assumed that he officially cut ties with Daniel. However, this didn't last very long, as on May 1st, 2024, a phone call between Clark and Daniel was leaked online after Daniel was arrested by the FBI on April 30th, 2024. It wouldn't be until later on that Clark gave him a straightforward call revealing that Daniel's entire internet life was a complete lie (from that all people claiming to be Grace VanderWaal were fake and that the real Grace never interacted with him nor would she even appreciate the likes of him, to that Tina VanderWaal's only time that she ever interacted with him was to tell him to leave her daughter alone, to revealing that and that he needs to face the consequences for his actions because of all the federal offenses he committed, etc).

Clark has cemented himself as one of Daniel’s most controversial managers, as during the wake of the Second Jail Arc, he as well as other members of management were investigated by the FBI regarding threats Daniel had made.

Background

“ Hey, Clarky Warky, answer your phony wony. ” — Daniel, to Clark

Prior to managing Daniel, Clark "had a decent thing going" for himself after he graduated from high school, losing his luck after getting expelled from college due to him constantly drinking and "doing a lot of stupid things." After attending rehab, Clark channeled his obsession with drinking into Daniel. Seeing as Daniel was ripe for exploitation in the lead up to his interactions with him, Clark obtained his number from an unknown individual and started to message him until he gained Daniel's trust.

After becoming Daniel's manager, Clark alleged that they spoke more than 10 hours a week, to a point where it was interfering with his work schedule and relationship with his parents. This got to the point where Clark was reprimanded at his job for speaking to Daniel so much, so much so that his parents caught Clark talking to Daniel on Thanksgiving. This is given the fact that due to Daniel's homelessness and lack of resources and a job, he has almost nothing to do all day but talk to people on the phone and post on social media.

Clark needs to record phone calls according to Daniel McDougall

Trolling and Manipulation

Role-playing

Clark and his associates mainly had conversations with Daniel in a Discord server, wherein they would roleplay as Daniel's delusions (most notably Grace VanderWaal) to gain Daniel's trust.

UCLA Arc

Also known as the Second College Arc, Clark and a few trolls deceived Daniel that he had been accepted into University of California, Los Angeles. Clark has convinced Daniel that he was paying for his classes, which consisted of absurd and questionable topics (such as the first king of “Ancient Texas” being “Ishid Anfarded”).

Clark’s Retirement

While he had “officially” retired from being Daniel’s management on March 1st, 2024, only to return in April 2024, Clark officially retired in May 2024 following the April 30th arrest.
