Canon
After the Bad Guys's latest theft, Governor Diane Foxington presented herself to the press and Mr. Wolf seemed impressed by her until Diane told the public the Bad Guys will be soon caught and also said that deep down they were angry, in denial, self-loathing, and with an emotional void which wouldn't be filled with their stolen loot, this made Mr. Wolf so angry that he convinced the other Bad Guys to steal the Golden Dolphin award in the governor's gala to spite her, despite all other criminals who attempted to steal it ended arrested, except for one called The Crimson Paw who was never captured.

At the Gala, as part of the theft Mr. Wolf approached Diane in disguise commenting about a nearby sculpture calling it a group of trash, and Diane noticed him and started a conversation about the Bad Guys where Diane said the only thing they were cementing was their prison sentence, secretly annoying Mr. Wolf and Diane turned to the statue showing Mr. Wolf that in a certain angle it projected the shadow of a Swan, stating that "even trash can be recycled into something beautiful" and introduced themselves with Mr. Wolf calling himself "Mr. Oliver Poodleton" and kissed Diane's hand which surprised her and didn't notice that Wolf stole her ring and then agreed to take a photo with him while teasing him.

Wolf used his photo with Diane to deceive the retinal scan lock from a computer room and to gain access to the Golden Dolphin award and nearly succeeded to steal it, much to Diane's dismay and Wolf' satisfaction, but then the latter became distracted by Professor Marmalade's speech about goodness and his tail wagged, drawing attention to himself and his friends and getting exposed and arrested.

However, while being transported to the police van, Mr. Wolf convinced Marmalade to give them a second chance stating that nobody did so before, and Marmalade was willing to but not Diane, who suspected Wolf to be lying and stated that she would not risk the safety of the city for an experiment, but Wolf convinced her by repeating her earlier statement that "Even trash can be recycled into something beautiful" in a seductive tone, which impressed the Governor and agreed to the experiment while keeping the Golden Dolphin with her to avoid "any unnecessary temptation", and with a flirtations tone warned to Wolf that not everyone gets second chances and to make the most of it while teasingly calling him Mr. Poodleton.

Some time later, during the experiment after the Bad Guys failed to save guinea pigs from a laboratory, Diane became mad at them and threatened to send the Bad Guys to prison again so Wolf tried to convince her to not do so by charming her again but she wasn't going to buy it and criticzes him that she gave him a second chance to be something more than a criminal but he's either too proud or afraid to do it and Mr. Wolf got mad at her and stated his frustration that everyone sees him as a bad guy and wouldn't believe him or his friends if they ever changed but that Diane couldn't understand it and called her "Little Miss perfect power", to which Diane with a sly smile asks him if that so and pickpocketd her ring back from him and says that a wolf and a fox aren't so different, much to his surprise. Diane says that maybe people will believe him or maybe not but that he shouldn't change for them but for himself and to write his own story and make a better life and asks him what's he got to lose, to which Wolf replies his dignity, and Diane looked at his sheep costume and said that ship has already sailed and said she'll see him in the gala, confirming she won't send him to jail.

At the Gala, Diane notices Wolf and happily waves at him but he avoids her out of shame for his new attempt to steal the Golden Dolphin, to her confusion and later approaches him saying she had the impression he has been avoiding her and adjusts his bow tie while saying she was expecting him to ask her to dance, to his delight and soon they started to dance together to Mr. Piranha' s song and gazed into each other's eyes a couple of times, and Wolf returned Diane's ring to her symbolizing his change and refusal to steal the Golden Dolphin and at Marmalade's speech about succeeding into turning the Bad Guys into the Good Guys, just when Diane was going to give the Bad Guys a full pardon, the City's heart shaped meteorite suddenly is stolen and everyone immediately blamed the Bad Guys and the police tried to arrest them, and Wolf hurriedly gave Diane a piece of paper to prove he's sincere.

When the Bad Guys are arrested in the police van, Marmalade goes to talk to them and reveals that he was who stole the meteorite and blamed them, this made Wolf so angry that he tried to attack Marmalade despite his chains and Marmalade cleverly opened the van door to make it seem Wolf was trying to attack him in the eyes of the public and Diane, who was shocked at this. Mr. Wolf and the other Bad Guys were taken away by the police with Wolf watching a shocked Diane from the window, but her shock soon turned into suspicion when she noticed Marmalade's sudden change of mood and secretly checked out Mr. Wolf's piece of paper realizing it was a map with an area marked, revealing their secret hideout with all their stolen loot.

After emptying the hideout. The Bad Guys in their prison island were rescued by a masked figure who skillfully defeated and imprisoned the guards, and once alone the figure revealed herself to be Diane, aka. The Crimson Paw, who quickly made an explosion in the island and helped the Bad Guys to escape via a speedboat.

When they reached land, Wolf hold Diane's hand and told her they will help her to stop Marmalade but the other Bad Guys sadly separated from him after and argument between Wolf and Snake. Diane remained at Wolf's side and comforted him by revealing her own redemption and also reassuring him that if his friends are real, they'll come around, and soon in Diane's house, she showed him her Crimson Paw hideout (which impressed Wolf) where they were able to figure Marmalade plan with the meteorite and the guinea pigs from the laboratory.

In Marmalade's house, the two sneaked in finding the Golden Dolphin trophy unguarded, which Diane pointed out as an obvious trap but Wolf still went for it with Diane trying to stop him, getting the two electroshocked and unconscious. When they woke up, they found themselves tied upside down by Marmalade, who discovered Diane's identity as the Crimson Paw, revealed his own alliance with Mr Snake and tried to get rid of the two, who were saved by the other Bad Guys.

After stopping Marmalade, the Bad Guys were caught by the police, which still believed them to be the ones who stole the meteorite. But Diane tried to defend them saying they were actually trying to return the meteorite and when Officer Luggins asks her how she could know that, Diane was about to reveal the she was the Crimson Paw, which would have destroyed her new life, but Wolf and the other Bad Guys stopped her from doing so and turned themselves to the police. With Wolf trusting the kitty he rescued in Diane's care, and her telling she's proud of him and waved to each other as he's taken in the police car.

One year later, after being released from prison earlier for good behavior, Diane and the kitty went to the prison in her car to pick the Bad Guys up and joined them into doing hero work.
