Noah Parker (voiced by Laurie Elliot) is Betty's best friend. He's an honor-roll student who enjoys studying mathematics and writing, which makes him a target for Duncan and Penelope's bullying. Unlike Betty, he's not very athletic, and the only sport he seems to be any good at is baseball. However he is shown to be a skilled skateboarder as seen in various episodes. He also has a strong crush on Betty, though she seems mostly oblivious to it, and he is generally jealous of whatever boy she's with. At first, he supported his father in his attempts to expose aliens, but when he found out about Betty's secret, he tried to keep this secret from him. At first, Paloma and him had their differences because Betty paid more attention to Paloma than him and he was deeply jealous of Paloma. He is also jealous of Chaz because of Betty's crush on him and his mutual feelings for her.
Cadet Noah
Noah was kept in the dark about Betty's dual role as a Galactic Guardian until the end of the second season finale Takes One to Know One, though on numerous occasions in the second season he was close to deducing Betty's dual role (having hacked into her communications frequency using a satellite radio). He discovers Betty's secret following the defeat of the villain Pandora; Pandora and her father had been sealed away in the Beluvian Demon Box, the key having found its way to Earth and into Noah's hands. The key had also caused an energy flux that teleported Noah into Maximus' lair. In the season three premiere episode No Space Like Home, Maximus had The Chameleon disguise himself as Noah to get Betty to rescue him, and allow him to obtain the location of Galactic Guardian Headquarters and Betty fell for it.
2013 Noah
Unknown to Betty, this would come back to haunt her when the Galactic Guardian headquarters is destroyed (by a ball Noah and Minimus were playing with, hitting the fire button for Maximus' laser seconds before he could). After defeating Maximus and rebuilding on Earth, Betty wished to erase Noah's memories, but Noah managed to charm her into letting him remember, and to join the Guardians as a cadet.
Though inexperienced, he is very willing to go on missions, sometimes even begging Betty on numerous occasions to let him accompany her and her crew on missions specifically assigned to her and repeatedly asking to fly the Starcruiser, and he has saved the day himself on several occasions. Unfortunately, Noah is sometimes careless and has trouble keeping secrets, as shown when he turned Betty's life into a comic book, Atomic Chick. He's also sometimes brash, and a bit immature. In the various "Crash Test Noah!" ending sketches, he also acts as a human guinea pig for X-5 to test the various gadgets he invents. Although Noah is jealous of the relationship that Betty and Chaz have, this may not mean that he dislikes Chaz in general, as they are seen hanging out together.
