History Characters / Heavyweights

* TookaLevelinKindness: He's much nicer after he leaves Tony's side.

* BigEater: While nowhere near the fattest kid in camp, he still is morbidly obese. A 5th grader such as himself should ''not'' weigh 141 pounds.

* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: In the very rare moments where you start to feel bad for him, you can expect to be reminded how much of a jerk he is seconds later. Examples include the cabin raid, when Tony pretends to hug Roy only to frisk him for a Pez dispenser, or later in the film when he acts friendly to Nicholas as a ruse to betray him moments later so he can [[spoiler: escape his cell.]]

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He is anything but sane. He clearly comes off as psychologically unhinged given how he resorts to seriously brutal methods to achieve weight loss for other people.

* BunnyEarsLawyer: He's a good-natured prankster but also a capable ringleader who helps lead the Chipmunks in the fight against Tony.

The head counselor of Camp Hope who is running a exercise video program trying to get his campers to slim down as much as possible in a short period of time so he can make money off of those videos.

* DeadpanSnarker: He is very sarcastic, such as when he calls the boys' hidden stash of candies and even deli sausages as a "treasure trove".

* EvilCounterpart: To Pat. Tony is physically fit but arrogant and mean, and forces the campers into a punishing workout program fueled by his own self-loathing. Pat is overweight, awkward, and insecure, but he's also laid-back, cares about the kids, and ultimately rejects the idea that he needs to be skinny to be happy.

* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: In the very rare moments where you start to feel bad for him, you can expect to be reminded how much of a jerk he is seconds later. Examples include the cabin raid, when Tony pretends to hug Roy only to frisk him for a Pez dispenser, or later in the film when he acts friendly towards Nicholas as a ruse to betray him moments later so he can [[spoiler: escape his cell.]]

* MrFanservice: He may not be buff like Lars, but Tony is still a fitness guru in impressive shape who spends most of the movie either in tight workout clothes or completely shirtless. Something of a DeconstructedTrope, though, since as opposed to the overweight but good-natured kids of Camp Hope, Tony is a cruel, miserable person with psychological problems that he takes out on other people.
* NeverMyFault: The "little Tony" conversation, where Tony has a talk with his inner child, ends this way. Instead of taking responsibility for the failure of his weight loss regimen, he responds by punishing the campers.

* VillainousBreakdown: Tony has this twice. The first is on Evaluation Day when he realized the camp boys were cheating on their diets and gained weight from doing so, the second is when his brutal methods of weight loss towards the boys were all exposed through video tape to their parents.
* VillainHasAPoint: While his methods are insane and harmful, Tony is absolutely right that the boys are eating too much junk food. Pat makes this clear to the campers later on and helps them eat better without having to punish and hate themselves like Tony.

* FunHatingVillain: He is one.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He's ''hardly'' competent, but he sure is much kinder and more balanced out than Tony is.

* NoSocialSkills: It's clear from his first scene that Tony has no idea how to approach people, especially children.

* MrFanservice: He may not be buff like Lars, but Tony is still a fitness guru in impressive shape who spends most of the movie either in tight workout clothes or completely shirtless. Something of a DeconstructedTrope, though, since he's a cruel, miserable person, as opposed to the overweight but good-natured kids of Camp Hope.

* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Tony tries shaming thtae overweight camp boys into reconsider their current eating habits by forcing them into a dance with a girls camp. This doesn't work as the girls eventually give the boys a chance for dancing and were actually having a fun time until Tony broke up the dance and shooed away the girls.

* FreudianExcuse: He used to be very fat as a young boy and his own father didn't show him love or affection in his own childhood. He became emotionally and psychologically damaged.

* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: In the very rare moments where you start to feel bad for him, you can expect to be reminded how much of a jerk he is seconds later. Examples include the cabin raid, when Tony pretends to hug Roy and gives him encouraging words only to frisk him for a Pez dispenser, or later in the film when he acts friendly towards Nicholas as a ruse to betray him moments later so he can [[spoiler: escape his cell.]]

* ParentalSubstitute: Most notably for Gerry. Unlike Maury Gardner, Gerry's father, Pat doesn't pressure Gerry to lose weight and wants him to have fun, especially when it comes to go-karts.

* TakeAThirdOption: Gives a speech towards the end of the movie preaching moderation. In general, he represents a compromise between the extreme physical punishment of Tony and the unrestrained gluttony of the kids. After [[spoiler: he becomes Head Counselor]], he shows the campers they can exercise and eat right while still having fun.
