Lyle sits at the table eating with Claire and [[Sandra Bennet|his mother]], and remarks that he and a friend named Doug saw what appeared to be a dead homeless Mexican man on the street, but that he turned out to be alive. He also sarcastically comments on [[Mr. Muggles]] humping his leg and that he isn't looking forward to his father seeing his report card. |
|||
When [[Claire]] tries to tell [[Sandra]] that she walked through fire and [[Regeneration|didn't get burned]], Lyle tells her that she is crazy. A few days later, when Sandra and [[Mr. Muggles]] go to a dog show, Lyle discovers Claire's tapes and watches them. He is horrified to see his sister heal and when Claire finds him she tries to pass it off as special effects. Lyle doesn't believe her and, after watching her regenerate from a staple wound, he runs away with the tape. Claire manages to convince Lyle to keep her secret but his memory of her power is later [[Mental manipulation|erased]] by [[the Haitian]]. |
|||
When Sandra's own memory begins to fail, Claire tries to see if she will recognize Lyle. Lyle believes that Claire is just acting weird but is later devastated when Sandra is hospitalized and tells his sister to shut up when she starts blaming [[Noah Bennet|their father]]. When [[Ted Sprague]] and [[Matt Parkman]] hold the family hostage, Lyle tries to attack Ted with a cricket bat. He and his mother are tied up and he is later freed by Claire. He runs and calls the cops, then, after watching his house explode, he and his family watch a charred Claire emerge from the wreckage and regenerate. |
|||
When Claire tells him that she had walked through fire and was not burned, he responds with hostility, saying "God, you're so crazy sometimes." |

{{season summary|season=Two}} |
|||
After Claire has a conversation with [[Mr. Bennet|their father]], Lyle sees Claire in a distraught state and informs her that their mother wants him to tell [[Claire]] that the [[waffles]] are ready. Claire responds tearfully that she'll be there in a minute, and Lyle stares at her concernedly until he leaves. |
|||
Lyle moves to [[Costa Verde]] with his family and takes the last name "Butler". After the first day of school, [[Sandra]] tells [[Claire]] that Lyle's first day was uneventful and asks about hers. When Claire begins meeting [[West]] in secret and comes up with the excuse of going to the library, Lyle questions her by asking her if she has ever heard of the internet. Lyle continues to live in Costa Verde but when Claire returns home one day with the news that [[The Company]] has found her, he starts packing to leave. [[Noah]] is killed and Lyle mourns with the rest of his family. When his father shows up alive, Lyle listens to his story. |

{{season summary|season=Three}} |
|||
While Lyle takes a piece of pizza in the Bennet kitchen he discovers [[Claire's tape|the videotape]] that Zach had brought back to Claire. Claire later catches Lyle watching it and attempts to convince him that it was just special effects. Lyle does not believe her, staples her hand, and watches in horror as her [[Rapid cell regeneration|healing powers]] manifest. He locks himself into the Bennet SUV and threatens to upload the videotape to YouTube and "make a million dollars". He calls his sister a "freak" and an "alien" and threatens to tell their parents about her. After a heartfelt plea from his sister he gives the tape back to her and gets out of the car. His sister gives him a hug but he, still in shock, does not hug her back. |
|||
When Lyle and [[Sandra]] return home, they find [[Claire]], still traumatized by her recent visit from [[Sylar]]. [[Meredith Gordon]] shows up to protect the family, and demonstrates her [[pyrokinesis]] by lighting her cigarette at the kitchen table. This disturbs Lyle and he asks his mother for help. A few days later, when Sandra and Claire return from fighting [[Eric Doyle]], they find Lyle unconscious on the floor. He awakens and tells them that the "[[Elle Bishop|bitch]] is back". Elle [[Electric manipulation|attacks]] Claire but is stopped when Lyle throws a bucket of water onto her. |
|||
Two months later, Lyle sits and has breakfast with his family. He asks Noah about his new job as a consultant and fakes interest with a nod. When [[Alex Woolsly]] needs a fake ID, Sandra takes Lyle's drivers license, using the excuse that it is a punishment because he got a C- on his report card. After Claire goes on the run, Lyle is left at home to take care of [[Mr. Muggles]]. He phones Sandra while she is in [[Washington]] and makes Noah realize that the woman he is with is actually Sandra. |

When Claire speaks with Lyle later, she tells him that now their father knows about her ability. Lyle is confused by this, having no idea what she is talking about. Claire says that she can not be injured, so Lyle punches her in the arm. When she asks if their father had spoken with him when he went to pick him up from practice, he says he hasn't seen him.
