Description

Isaac Morton is a determined boy who resolutely puts his head down and trudges forward. However, he is prone to second-guess... everything. He's a bit of, well, a wimp, though deep down he has the courage he needs. He is an intellectual and has deep convictions — once he figures out exactly what he's convicted about. He's good friends with Lucy Cunningham-Schultz and Sam Johnson.

Trivia

• He is physically small, being described even by friends as a "little guy" (#116: “Isaac the Benevolent”)
• He has allergies which are triggered by dust (#180: “Isaac the Pure”)
• In school, he is good at math but poor at spelling (#116: “Isaac the Benevolent”)
• He hates engaging in written communication but is good at public speaking (#184: “Isaac the Chivalrous”, #86: “Isaac the Insecure”)
• The long-running character of Sam Johnson was originally introduced as a friend for him (#161: “Isaac the True Friend”), though Sam would remain on AIO for three years after Isaac's final episode and would appear in 35 episodes compared to Isaac's 15

Family

Isaac's mother is Doctor Morton, and his father is Jerry Morton.

— #180: “Isaac the Pure”

“	Isaac Morton: What are you, my mother? Look, not that it's any of your business, but it's only Saturday morning. I've got the rest of the weekend to do this report. Everything's under control. So don't worry about it, okay? Lucy Cunningham-Schultz: Okay, you don't have to get hyper. It's your grade.	”
— #148: “Isaac the Procrastinator”

“	Isaac Morton: James Armer and the pilot looked identical?! John Whittaker: As alike as two peas in a pod.	”
— #187: “An Act of Nobility”

“	Isaac Morton: Are you cutting me from the team, Mr. Zachary? Fred Zachary: Cutting you? Now, Isaac, "cutting you" is whatchacall a very harsh word! It sounds like a brutal slice, a severing, a destructive act of whatchacall— Isaac Morton: You're cutting me from the team. Fred Zachary: Yes.	”

“	Isaac Morton: What happened? Eugene Meltsner: Well, the sequence of events occurred with extreme epiphyte. But I shall attempt to recall them. I was powering my two wheeler along this pathway when your personage suddenly appeared directly in front of me, blocking my course. My reflexes immediately sprang to life in an attempt to navigate an evasive maneuver around you while still maintaining course and speed, but I evidently overcompensated and my Schwinn careened off the hardened path and upended us both in this shrub.	”

— #180: “Isaac the Pure”

“	John Whittaker: Well, to put it delicately. I think you're suffering from an illness Isaac. Isaac Morton: An illness? What kind of an illness? John Whittaker: Unless I miss my guess, I think it's chronic procrastinitus. Isaac Morton: Chron—chronic pro— John Whittaker: Chronic procrastinitus. It's an illness that effects your motor skills. Movement and such.	”
— #148: “Isaac the Procrastinator”

“	Eugene Meltsner: In the lay vernacular, what's the big deal Isaac? You just be nice to people. Isaac Morton: That's what Lucy said. But is being nice really all there is to it? And are you supposed to be nice to everybody or just those who are nice to you? And are you supposed to be nice to them so they'll be nice to you later? Or are you supposed to wait until they're nice to you and do something back nice to them? Eugene? Eugene Meltsner: Oh, sorry, Isaac. For the first time in my life, I understand what it means to not comprehend something...	”

— #86: “Isaac the Insecure”

“	Isaac Morton: When I try being nice and helping people, all I get is yelled at.	”
— #116: “Isaac the Benevolent”

— #148: “Isaac the Procrastinator”

“	Jerry Morton: Isaac, you're throwing away my collection of National Geographics! Isaac Morton: Yeah. Jerry Morton: Yeah? What could possibly be impure about them? Isaac Morton: Have you seen those pictures from Africa, dad? Jerry Morton: Isaac!	”
— #180: “Isaac the Pure”

“	Eugene Meltsner: What's the next clue, Isaac? Isaac Morton: "Finding the next clue shouldn't be torture; it may be the apple of your eye. Under a bushel or in the orchard. All you have to do is try" ...What do you think? Eugene Meltsner: Whoever wrote that needs to take a course in poetry. Isaac Morton: The clue!	”
— #198: “Treasure Hunt”
