* TheHeroDies: [[spoiler:If you don't find Peggy's eighth birthday card from Marie, she'll be killed just before Forrest is (unless you saved every single caller prior, in which case the police will arrive just in time to save Forrest alone). In the absolute worst ending (where every single caller dies), you don't even get the chance to save her- Marie will order Henry to kill you while telling you that she's gonna murder Peggy next.]]

* TheGadfly: While his constant attempts to advertise himself on Forrest's station could come off as being overzealous more than anything else, the fact that he takes the time to fake accents long enough to get Forrest to drop his guard, and is even ''stifling laughter'' comes his last call, really gives off the impression that he's just as much doing it to actively get a rise out of Forrest as he is trying to get free coverage. This doesn't make it any ''less'' egregious than it already is, considering that people's lives are dependent on Forrest being able to take their calls throughout the night.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's not happy to realize Laurie has been replaced by The Scream, and lets Forrest know, and thinks he's being pranked so is even more grumpy. Apart from that, he isn't dumb, and genuinely thanks Forrest if saved.

* {{Jerkass}}: It really says a lot that Peggy is willing to put up with Forrest's antics, even at his [[BlackComedy absolute worst]], but can't even stand hearing Teddy talk. It's definitely saying something when Forrest, even before actually speaking to him, calls him a "Grade-a asshole" from hearing his tape.

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He despises Linda for not being American, hinting at some possible racial and/or ethnic prejudice. He's also implied to be misogynistic, as he calls Peggy unstable the minute she expresses disdain for him, but he doesn't say a word to Forrest when he gets equally critical.

Added DiffLines:

*VillainRespect: Subverted. If Forrest saves most or all of the callers by the time she and Henry interview him to get Teddy to reveal the truth behind George's death, she states she wants his help because his efforts in saving the callers is proof that he believes in justice. Not only that, but she'll have Henry spare him if he does a good job. However, shall she kill Peggy, she immediately demands Henry to kill him, proving her supposed respect towards Forrest isn't genuine and was more or less her just trying to sweet talk him.

* SuperStrength: Henry is strong enough to lift and throw a couch like it's nothing, beat the shit out of an adult man, and lift Forrest up by the neck. Marie, if she is the one that kills Clive, is strong enough to strangle a man to death with her bare hands.
