===Season 2=== [[File:Zane.gif|thumb|right|Zane walking Rikki to her house ]]He soon returns to the girls' lives, determined to rekindle his relationship with Rikki. The two become a secret couple until Emma and Cleo find out, and greatly disapprove of their relationship due to their lack of trust for Zane, though Rikki feels differently. '' The obnoxious stuff is just an act, he tries to keep people away. '' was once stated by Rikki. He's a very caring boyfriend, who is more than what a first impression can be made of him. Throughout the second season, Zane's personality begins to change slightly in a nice way, after discovering Rikki again as a mermaid where he tells her that '' I was the only one around here that did believe in mermaids '' and the two become a couple again, promising not to tell the girls' secret to the world. He also becomes friends with Lewis in order for help about his knowledge on mermaids, like in one episode when he bought a bottle of magic perfume, where he and Lewis discover its effect on mermaids. At first he and a new boy Ash, got into a big argument, causing Rikki and Emma to become angry with each other, but later on, he and Ash were able to discuss the situation and forgave each other. On some occasions Zane becomes more nice to the girls, and has helped Lewis protect the girl's secret from other people: mostly from [[Nate]].===Season 1=== [[File:Mako Chart.png|thumb|right|Hunting Mermaids]] He is a prime antagonist to the girls throughout most of Season 1 because of his obsession with capturing mermaids after he spotted one. He enjoys teasing [[Lewis McCartney|Lewis]], [[Cleo Sertori|Cleo,]] [[Emma]] and especially [[Rikki Chadwick|Rikki]]. Especially shown when Lewis says that he sees the glass as being half full , whereas Zane sees it as something to hit people with . Zane's attitude most likely comes from his father who constantly tells Zane that he is spoiled and useless. Zane gets a glimpse of Emma's tail when [[Louise Chatham|Mrs. Chatham]]'s boat, [[Lorelei]], begins to sink with him trapped inside. He catches his first look at a mermaid when he sees [[Emma Gilbert|Emma]] while scuba diving. Fortunately Emma had decided she wanted a change from being dependable Emma and had dyed her blonde hair red, but was only Red in mermaid form. Zane never knew the mermaids he was after were right under his nose... or that close to his heart as it could be put later on. His tenacity was not only spent on finding sea monsters, but also on winning the heart of the unlikely Rikki Chadwick. When the two got caught on a balcony together, they unexpectedly developed feelings for one another. Though having thought to be dating [[Miriam]], the local bimbo, he is quick to point out that they were never together. Miriam can't seem to handle that news and becomes the main threat to Rikki and Zane's relationship. When his obsession finally lands him the discovery of the mermaids, he is shocked to find it to be Rikki, Emma and Cleo. With the help of Lewis (who is often dragged into Zane's crazy schemes, even though he hates Zane) he saves the girls from Dr. Linda Denman and total exposure. He and Rikki break-up after her saying that they're too different . Zane reconciles with his father and goes off for a short stay at Boarding School. Show less «
