Recurring Antagonists

    Jimmy Pesto Sr. 

Jimmy Pesto Sr. (James Poplopovich Sr.)

Voiced by: Jay Johnston (Seasons 1 to 11), Eric Bauza (season 14 to present)

The owner of Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria and Bob's Sitcom Arch-Nemesis. He's an immature and petty jerkass whose sole talent lies in his ability to get customers, something he constantly holds over Bob's head. Besides his business skills, however, his food ranges from mediocre to awful, and nobody truly likes him aside from his kids (to whom he's a terrible father).


See here for tropes applying to Jimmy Pesto Senior.

"You're really living the dream, Linda."
Voiced by: Sam Seder

The city health inspector, Linda's ex-fiance, and a constant thorn in Bob's side whose uptight nature is matched only by his pettiness.


  • Acrofatic: As "Nude Beach" shows, he's fairly athletic.
  • Alliterative Name: His first and last name both start with "H".
  • Always Someone Better: He tries to pull this on Bob, but would rather do it on his own merits than by cheating.
    • Subverted in the pilot—Linda claims he's more attractive than Bob, and also calls him a better kisser, but makes it clear that she's with Bob and not Hugo for a reason.
  • Ambiguously Bi: He has, unintentionally, admitted to being attracted to certain men (primarily Jimmy Pesto).
  • Characterization Marches On: Hugo was slightly different in his first appearance. Although still very antagonistic towards Bob, he was clear that he was still in love with Linda and nice to her, had genuine reason to believe something was going down on the restaurant when a corpse showed up there, and came around at the end to make the test and save Bob's reputation; this all paints him as a much more reasonable and sympathetic character than his later appearances. Later appearances show him to outright hate Bob (the last time he was nice to Bob was him pulling a The Only One Allowed to Defeat You in Season 3's "Nude Beach"), be completely over Linda (and just as capable of targetting his antagonism at her) and dating other women, trouble the restaurant out of said disgruntlement with the Belchers and only step down from his pettiness when he ran out of options.
  • Chekhov's Gunman: In the 200th episode, he shows up at the beginning to harass Bob by throwing greasy rags at him. He doesn't appear or even get mentioned for the rest of the runtime, as the fire at the restaurant takes center stage... until the very end, where it's revealed that Hugo's rag throwing was what caused the fire in the first place.
  • Covert Pervert: When Linda flashes her breasts on live TV in "Beefsquatch", Hugo can be seen frantically trying to DVR it before the broadcast gets cut off.
  • Demoted to Extra: In Season 1, he and Jimmy Pesto are in a Big Bad Ensemble of sorts, being the two largest antagonists in the show. In Season 2, Hugo gets a grand total of two appearances (one of which is a silent cameo), and in every season onwards he only appears in a couple episodes (with him being outright absent in Seasons 4, 10, and 12). He also used to appear often as just a minor character (such as a part of the crowd in "Bob Day Afternoon" or a viewer of "Get On Up" in "Beefsquatch"), but now he won't appear at all unless he's a major part of the plot.
  • Dirty Coward: In "The Deepening", he refuses to help Bob, Mort, and Teddy deal with the mechanical shark in the basement, despite being more than willing to mock them for incompetence. He is fine with helping with "crowd control", though, even though there's not even much of a crowd.
  • Dreadful Musician: He sings "You're the Best Around" in "Nude Beach", but his singing voice is rather shrill.
  • Drunk with Power: Whenever he's on the Belchers' case, he abuses his power to the fullest extent. Ron has had to tell him to back off, and his supervisor once threatened to fire him if he didn't leave Bob alone.
  • Enemy Mine: In "They Serve Horses, Don't They?", Bob and Hugo team up to catch a meat vendor in the act of meat fraud (advertising one kind of meat as another; in this case horse meat as beef). Hugo doesn't want to ally with Bob, but his only other option is Jimmy Pesto.
  • Even Evil Has Standards:
    • As mentioned below, no matter how much he hates Bob and would relish in seeing his restaurant shut down, even he wouldn't stoop to sabotage.
    • In "They Serve Horses, Don't They?" he makes Bob help him in a sting operation to expose a meat vendor who sells horse meat instead of beef. The reason he doesn't get Jimmy Pesto's help despite clearly liking him more is because even Hugo thinks Jimmy is an idiot.
  • Evil Is Petty: Almost never misses an opportunity to make Bob's life difficult, either by nitpicking every slight mistake Bob makes (no matter how minor or insignificant), or just being plain rude.
    • His replacement, Tommy, is even worse, stooping to immediately strew rat turds on the floor and shut Bob down when he was snubbed for performing at the restaurant.
    • Although as noted above, Hugo wouldn't stoop to falsifying health reports, he will stoop to dishing out excessive punishments to Bob's restaurant for otherwise small mishaps, from placing a poster declaring "the cook has filthy dirty hands" on his window for failing to have a "hand-washing license", to having the restaurant completely shut down to fumigate a small patch of green mold on the wall. The kicker is, after Bob discovers the same kind of mold in Pesto's restaurant, he first laughs at Pesto and says he has to have Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria shut down, but then Hugo casually says "Nah, just put some bleach on it"—which happens to have been the exact same solution Bob suggested for his restaurant.
    • "Are You There Bob, It's Me, Birthday" infamously had him demand Linda call his parents and pretend to beg for Hugo to take her back if she wanted him to get Bob out of the restaurant to plan his surprise party. Linda and Ron were both appalled at how pathetic that was.
  • Fat Bastard: In the episode "Nude Beach", Hugo is shown to have a belly that not only covers up his genitals, but also the fanny pack he wears (he has to lift up his gut to reveal it). As for the "bastard" part, he fits it to a T.
  • Foil: As noted in the pilot, his job is pretty much the antithesis to Bob's (Health Inspector vs Burger Joint). In terms of personality, he tends to be the uptight inspector compared to the more laid back Bob.
    • In "Sliding Bobs", the contrast is played up even more. In an alternate scenario where Hugo gets together with Linda instead of Bob, Hugo ends up running a hot dog restaurant in contrast to Bob's burger joint. As a father, Hugo is overall nicer and praises his children in contrast to Bob's Brutal Honesty coupled with more underlying kindness. But Hugo also cuts corners in his cooking, to the point that he makes hot dogs out of actual dogs, whereas real-world Bob always prioritizes the quality of his food. Meanwhile, the health inspector version of Bob is more reasonable and professional, compared to the real-world Hugo who is nitpicky and lets his personal biases control his every move.
  • Freudian Excuse: "Lobsterfest" implies his rude and petty attitude comes from a fear of never finding love. Linda probably wasn't the first woman he had affection for, just the one he almost married.
  • Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: While his inability to find love is clearly affecting his attitude, being single is hardly an excuse for being such a colossal dick (in fact, being such a colossal dick is almost certainly why he hasn't had much romantic success in the first place).
  • Green-Eyed Monster: He only hates Bob for being married to Linda, though he very rarely shows any affection for her.
  • Hated by All: Linda dumped him for a reason, Bob reciprocates his animosity, the Belcher kids hate him as much as their parents do, and pretty much the only reason anyone even tolerates him is because he's in a position of (relative) power. Ron is the one person who actually likes him, and even he has his limits.
  • Hate Sink: A recurring jerk to Bob who rarely if ever gets his comeuppance. The worst to happen was his boss threatened to fire him if he kept harassing Bob in "Speakeasy Rider", which only lasted a couple seasons before he went back to his usual dickery. Very few people even like him—Ron may be the only person who likes being around him unironically and, unlike Jimmy Pesto, not based on any dislike of Bob.
  • Hypocrite: He's usually a stickler when it comes to being a health inspector, to the point of becoming hostile at the slightest violation. However, he shows none of it when Jimmy Pesto has mold like Bob and only suggests cleaning it the same way he told Bob wouldn't work. He's willing to let it slide if the person in question shares his hate for Bob. The fact that Jimmy Pesto's shown to not care for fresh ingredients and people have even gotten food poisoning from him shows Hugo favors those who dislike Bob.
    • In "The Deepening" he mocks Teddy's weight, even though he's hardly in any better shape.
  • Insane Troll Logic: In "Are You There Bob? It's Me, Birthday", he uses the fact that he's professional when inspecting other restaurants to justify the fact that he's completely unprofessional when inspecting Bob's Burgers.
  • Irony: He always tries to nail Bob on even the most minor of violations, but the one time Bob is actually doing something straight-up illegal (and would actually be grounds to shut down the restaurant) Hugo can't prove it before he's told by his supervisor to leave Bob alone.
  • I Warned You: Tries invoking on this on Bob during "The Deepening" when the ideas for stopping the shark do not work. The trope is averted, however, as he didn't warn Bob at all.
  • Jerkass: As mentioned above, his feelings for Linda cause him to constantly antagonize Bob even when he's done nothing to him (and didn't even know who he was until the pilot episode). And even if his decisions can cause Linda (who he supposedly loves so much) to suffer as well, he doesn't care.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: In ''Are You There, Bob? It's Me, Birthday," Bob insults Hugo's job and says he just uses it to harass people, so Hugo takes him on an impromptu health inspection to a new wrap restaurant. The place turns out to be legitimately disgusting, and Bob instantly gets food poisoning from eating there. Bob then admits that Hugo's job is valuable and that, although he abuses his power, Hugo's perfectionism really does have a point.
  • Karma Houdini: Tends to get away with being a jerk to Bob, especially when he ordered a shutdown of the restaurant after Gretchen (who Bob set him up with) dumped him at the end of "Lobsterfest".
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: Though rare, there are some moments where Hugo actually suffers retribution for his actions:
    • In "Speakeasy Rider", the one time he actually catches Bob doing something that could get the restaurant shut down (selling Teddy's homebrewed beer), his supervisor orders him to stop harassing Bob on threat of being fired. Hugo actually leaves Bob alone until Season 7 (and even then takes until Season 8 to get back up to his worst behavior), showing that the threat was serious.
    • In "Bob Belcher and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Kids", Ron drags Hugo to Bob's restaurant, tells everyone that Hugo was responsible for the fire, and forces Hugo to not only apologize to Bob, but also pay for the damages.
  • Motive Decay: Started out jealous that Bob married Linda and is living the life Hugo believes he should have gotten, he's since devolved into just tormenting Bob for the hell of it, sometimes barely even acknowledging Linda's presence (and rarely mentioning their past or his lingering feelings in the event he does acknowledge her).
  • Never My Fault: Based on what Linda says about their engagement, she never really loved him, citing his lack of ambition and general attitude as unappealing. It's possible if not very likely that she was going to leave Hugo anyway and Bob merely happened to speed up the process (and possibly not even by that much). It is unlikely that Hugo recognizes that Linda was never really interested in him, and to this day he seems to think Bob is the only reason his relationship with Linda failed.
  • No Sympathy: Even after learning he set Bob's Burgers on fire, he has to be pressured by Ron into apologizing and even tries to blame Bob for it (which Bob quickly shoots down). It's clear that he doesn't really care at all, and if anything he's more upset that he has to pay for the damage.
  • Obstructive Bureaucrat: Towards Bob.
  • The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: Returns from a hiatus because Bob's Burgers was about to be shut down by another health inspector who planted rat feces there. Hugo proceeds to reopen the restaurant and declares that if Bob's Burgers goes down, it's going to be at his hands and it's not going to be by planted evidence.
  • Pet the Dog:
    • Whenever he's off-duty or not harassing Bob (both of which are very rare), he admits to liking Bob's food.
    • In "Are You There Bob? It's Me, Birthday", despite otherwise being at his absolute worst, Hugo admits he'll replace Bob's food handling license as a birthday gift. Consider that if he didn't, Bob would have to replace it himself or shut down, which has been Hugo's goal from the beginning.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: On very rare occasions, he'll actually do his job properly and grant the Belchers some leeway. In "Itty Bitty Ditty Committee", while Linda had armpit rash, he issued a citation but he did say he'll let it slide if she wore hairnets on her armpits (to treat the rash, she couldn't shave). He also allowed the Belchers to detonate rotten meat in "Ain't Miss Debatin'" as long as they thoroughly cleaned the restaurant afterwards.
  • The Resenter: To Bob. After Hugo and Linda broke up, the latter moved on and became Happily Married with Bob, causing Hugo to despise Bob for living the life Hugo believes was rightfully his. Interestingly, unlike many examples of this trope, he doesn't seem to hold resentment towards the Belcher kids for being a living reminder of this (although given they rarely interact, there's still room for Hugo to stoop that low).
  • Sadist: Admits that Bob's suffering makes him happy in "Are You There Bob? It's Me, Birthday".
  • Selective Enforcement: He goes great lengths to shut Bob's restaurant down for even the smallest infractions, but he goes easy on Jimmy Pesto's despite that place being a known health hazard.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: In the movie. He only appears in one scene and never even interacts with any of the Belchers, but his presence scares Bob off work as an unlicensed street vendor, leading him to set up business inside Wonder Wharf itself, setting events in motion that allow him and Linda to find the kids in the Fischoeders' underground base, kickstarting the film's final act and ultimately leading to the downfall of the Big Bad.
  • Sour Outside, Sad Inside: Though Hugo's still an incredibly petty man, "Human Flesh" shows he's still heartbroken over Linda leaving him (to the point of crying inside a bathroom) and some of his later appearances revolve around him trying to find love again.
  • Stealing the Credit: Bob and Teddy save the day in "The Deepening", but Hugo is more than happy to tell the news he did.
  • Stupid Evil: It's mentioned that he's been told by his supervisor to lay off Bob on multiple occasions under threat of being fired, and all that does is cause him to lay low for a couple seasons before returning in full force.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: In "Human Flesh", he was still petty and tried to get Bob's restaurant shut down, but it was made clear that Hugo was suffering inside and he ultimately came around to make the test and allow Bob to reopen the restaurant. In later episodes, his sympathetic side and redeeming qualities are completely gone, and he's entirely dedicated to both making Bob shut down his restaurant and making his life a living hell in general.
  • The Unapologetic: Ron has to heavily pressure him into apologizing for setting Bob's Burgers on fire, and even then it's clear he doesn't really mean it.
  • Unexpected Virgin: "Nude Beach" reveals that he and Linda never slept together during their time as a couple. While it wouldn't be unexpected for someone as pathetic as Hugo to be a virgin, it is surprising considering he and Linda were outright engaged (for four days, but still).

    Randy Watkins 

Randy Watkins

Voiced by: Paul F. Tompkins

An indie filmmaker and "trust-fund baby" who was introduced trying to protest meat-eating outside Bob's Burgers. His later appearances have him as less antagonistic, but he still doesn't get along very well with Bob.


  • Actor Allusion: Tina at one point confuses Randy for Werner Herzog because they're both documentarians. Randy's voice actor, Paul F. Tompkins, has done a bit where he imitates Herzog's distinct voice.
  • Bestiality Is Depraved: To be fair, he didn't realize what he was doing, but Randy revealing he attempted to milk Moolissa (who is confirmed to be male) makes it very obvious that he instead grabbed the cow's... yeah.
  • The Bully: He's an obnoxious jerk who constantly belittles and puts down Bob. He's one of the few characters (besides the usual suspects like Jimmy Pesto or Hugo) able to make Bob genuinely upset.
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: In his debut appearance, he had a small but noticeable film crew at his side. Later episodes all depict him as working alone, handling every behind-the-scenes role his crew would've performed by himself.
  • Giftedly Bad: He believes his filmmaking skills are Hollywood-level. They're not even high school-level.
  • Hypocrite: He's a self-proclaimed animal rights fanatic, yet his treatment of Moolissa the cow amounts to minor bits of abuse and neglect. He glued a wig to its head, "milked" itexplanation  and left it out in the rain. He ignores this and has the gall to call Bob a hypocrite, ignoring that even if Bob personally spared Moolissa, Moolissa would still be killed anyways and its beef would just be sold to another beef-selling restaurant instead.
  • Insufferable Imbecile: A huge, hypocritical douchebag and a huge, ignorant dumbass. Not a good combination, and nobody (not even Linda) can tolerate him for more than a few minutes.
  • Jerkass: His one redeeming quality is that he's rarely around long enough to leave too much of an impact on the Belchers. In "Yes Without My Zeke", he's so mean-spirited that Bob (who usually just snarks at or is resigned to whatever insults come his way) actually feels hurt by what he says. Not even the usually-enthusiastic Linda can muster any excitement to see him.
  • Must Not Die a Virgin: Exclaims this in "Food Truckin'", although his success in that regard is unclear (but likely limited).
  • Small Name, Big Ego: He thinks he's far more well known and respected as a filmmaker than he really is. When he meets Bob for the first time in "Sacred Cow", he starts getting visibly annoyed as Bob repeatedly makes it clear he's never heard of Randy or anything he's worked on. After shooting a film in "Yes Without My Zeke", Randy clearly thinks it's going to be an award-winner, while Bob and Linda discuss between themselves that it'll be lucky to even get acknowledged by professional critics.
  • Straw Vegetarian: He doesn't eat meat, and tends to be a pompous jerk about it. He tries to paint Bob as a murderer for making burgers, clearly dislikes Bob trying to find common ground between vegetarians and meat-eaters, and even after this passes he's not too friendly to Bob.
    Randy: Meat is murder.
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: He often works with the Belchers and only directly opposes them once, but he nonetheless remains an antagonist through his obnoxious personality and borderline-bullying of Bob.
  • What Does This Button Do?: Tries to turn on the grill of the food truck while it's in motion even after Teddy warned the Belchers not to, and after Bob screams at him not to do it he pauses for a moment... and then presses the button anyways. Cue giant explosion.

    Phillip Frond 

Phillip Frond

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bbmrfrond_6102.png
"If you ignore history, you are doomed to repeat it. And if you touch history, you will be suspended for six days."
Voiced by: David Herman

Phillip Frond is the guidance counselor of Wagstaff who also acts as the (self-appointed) head of the school whenever Principal Spoors is away (read: basically all the time). The Belchers (especially Bob and Louise) consider him either annoying or pathetic, and for good reason—he's completely incompetent at his job, which isn't helped by his apparent superiority complex.


  • Adults Are Useless: Perhaps the single most inept member of Wagstaff's faculty, which is really saying something. He fails to get students under his command, cowers whenever they stand up to him (which is often if not all the time), occasionally just stands there doing nothing at all, and neglects to bring up vital information (like the time he didn't inform Bob about Regular-Sized Rudy's life-threatening asthma until the end of the field trip). Louise lampshades it in "Tweentrepeneurs"; when the kids take a class about starting and maintaining their own company, Frond phrases it as them being in charge, and Louise snarks that it's just like usual.
  • Arch-Enemy: Louise cannot stand him, whether because he's an incompetent guidance counselor or using the kids in his schemes to better himself while abusing his authority. This causes her to undermine him more than anyone else.
  • Art Evolution: Frond saw redesigns with both Season 4 and Season 9, making his appearance more in line with the rest of the cast.
  • Asshole Victim: Anytime misfortune befalls him, it's a safe bet that nobody will be rushing to shed tears for him.
  • Basement-Dweller: "Carpe Museum" reveals he still lives with his mother, which is enough of a dealbreaker for the museum director (who he's spent the entire episode successfully flirting with) to immediately lose interest in him.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He's repeatedly shown to be a jerk who just pretends to care for the kids in order to make a name for himself.
  • Butt-Monkey: The Belcher kids love to screw him over and prank him (cf. "The Frond Files"). He arguably brings it on himself with how much of a dick he is.
  • Can't Hold His Liquor: Half a glass of wine leaves him throwing up in the bathroom. Justified; he's almost never had alcohol before.
  • Can't Take Criticism: He can't handle when people judge or mock his clearly ineffective methods. In "Touch of Eval(uations)", he creates evaluation forms for students to provide constructive criticism for their teachers, but quickly adds that the forms can't be used to criticize him (even though he could arguably benefit from them the most). This doesn't stop Louise from trying at the end, though.
  • Characterization Marches On:
    • In his debut appearance, he's a well-meaning if idiotic guidance counselor who genuinely wants to help kids, but just doesn't know how, and it's clear Louise just trolls him for the hell of it. In late Season 1 onwards, he goes from that to an egotistical jerk who's so unlikeable that Louise's poor treatment of him suddenly becomes very understandable.
    • In "Bob and Deliver" he's shown buying a martini glass set. Later episodes show him to be a teetotaler who vomits after having a small glass of wine and also looks down upon those who drink.
  • Child Hater: For a guidance counselor, he’s rarely if ever pleasant with the children. Even when unprovoked his tone with them is petty at best.
  • Designated Villain: Invoked in-universe in "The Frond Files". He is not happy to be the villain in all three of the Belcher kids' stories about Wagstaff and almost breaks down in tears because Tina's story had him locking himself in a room while the students were being attacked by zombies. It's also because he finally realizes they don't like him.
    • Also invoked in "Bad Tina", specifically in Tina's erotic friend-fiction "Buttloose".
      Tina: Touching butts had been banned by the horrible Headmaster Frond.
      Mr. Frond: What?
  • Didn't Think This Through: Many of his harebrained schemes are poorly planned. He almost always gets called out on it.
    • In "The Runway Club", he creates a fashion competition that gives the Belcher kids, Jimmy Jr., Zeke, Tammy, and Jocelyn a chance to leave detention early, which all of them eventually win. It's not until Frond sees Principal Spoors pulling up to the school that he realizes Spoors expects to see seven kids in detention and won't be happy to find zero instead.
    • In "Wag the Song", his brilliant plan to replace the Wagstaff school anthem is to let kids make potential replacements. This by itself is actually not a bad idea. The bad idea is that he gives those kids all the power in choosing the winning candidate, which as Louise points out means they're all just going to exploit the system and pick an immature song that they like but which would normally never get past an adult. By the time Frond realizes it, all he can do is try to minimize the chances of an inappropriate song winning, and even then he doesn't quite succeed.
    • In "Touch of Eval(uations)", he creates an evaluation system for students to hand in. Because he makes it due at the end of the day, and also makes no attempt to keep students in check (for one, he makes the evaluation forms anonymous), Louise figures out that students could effectively get a free day by using the threat of a poor evaluation to keep the teachers in check.
    • In "Cheaty Cheaty Bang Bang", he creates a therapy doll to give students a safe space to report troublemakers without fear of having the troublemakers retaliate—specifically by having students write the report on a note and leaving it in the therapy doll's fanny pack for Frond to collect later. On paper, it's a great idea. But Frond does one thing that defeats the entire point—he thanks each person who sent a note via loudspeaker, which only serves to tell a misbehaving student exactly who reported them. Even after Rudy gets threatened by a student he reported, Frond fails to notice this massive flaw, instead thanking Rudy again after Rudy sends a second note reporting the student's threat.
  • Dirty Coward: In "Bob Day Afternoon" he asks that women and children should be released, only for Bob to point out he doesn't quite fit that demographic. His response?
    Mr. Frond: I will tuck my junk so fast!
  • Dork in a Sweater: Well, a sweater vest, but it still counts.
  • Dragon-in-Chief: He's not even the second-in-command on the Wagstaff chain of command, but because both Principal Spoors and the unnamed vice principalnote  are The Ghost, he seems to be the closest Wagstaff has to someone in charge (which in turn means he's the one coming into conflict with the Belcher kids).
  • Entitled Bastard: In "The Frond Files". Despite regularly talking down to and antagonising the Belcher kids, he is genuinely upset at how they made him the villain in all their stories, and cries over the idea that they don't like him.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: While Frond is offended to be the villain in Louise and Gene's stories in "The Frond Files," he is MORTIFIED that Tina thinks he'd be capable of locking himself in a room while leaving children to die.
  • Extreme Doormat: Might as well be his middle name. Whenever he's in charge, authority in Wagstaff is basically non-existent.
    • In "Bob & Deliver", he's so spineless that even when Bob defies him to his face and starts preparing a final Home Ec-staurant lunch service right in front of him, Frond just stands there and does nothing until after Bob and the kids are racing to the cafeteria (i.e. when it's much too late to do anything to stop them).
  • Failed a Spot Check: While the Belchers are understandably shocked to see that he's Gayle's new boyfriend, and it's possible Frond wouldn't have known that Gayle was related to the Belchers up until being invited to dinner (Gayle's surname is Genarro, so she wouldn't have any overt link to the Belchers based on name alone), Frond has outright been to their apartment before (in "Crawl Space"), not to mention the giant sign that reads "Bob's Burgers" in front, meaning there's no way it took him until he opened the door to see that the Belchers were the ones hosting dinner.
  • Fatal Flaw: His inability and refusal to understand students and his massive ego are constantly getting in the way of his attempts to make a name for himself.
  • Fat Bastard: Not to the extent of Hugo in either sense of the term, but he's fairly out of shape (emphasized with his slight redesign in "The Frond Files") and fairly obnoxious to boot.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: The other faculty members and teachers aren't fond of him and it's implied he doesn't actually have any friends. They never invite him to Ms. LaBonz's "Martini Tuesday" for this reason (he goes on to later reveal that he does not drink and likes to criticize others when they get tipsy, and of course, he does not understand why this would cause others to not want to hang around him while drinking after work). He seems to think he and Principal Spoors are friends, but all evidence shows that Spoors only tolerates Frond at best and that tolerance is limited.
  • Given Name Reveal: His first name, Phillip, was first revealed in Season 2's "Synchronized Swimming", an entire season after his debut.
  • Geeky Turn-On: Field trips really seem to do something for him. Frond spends all of “Carpe Museum” flirting with the museum tour guide, and he’s shown to have a minor psychedelic experience during the final puppet show in “If You Love It So Much, Why Don’t You Marionette?”
  • Hated by All: Almost nobody likes him or respects him. His fellow faculty members and teachers exclude him from their afterschool hangouts, and the students (especially Louise) dislike him along with many of the parents (Bob in particular hates him just as much as Louise). Most of this dislike stems from the fact that he comes off as annoying, hypocritical and generally unpleasant. The only person who showed any interest in him at all was Gayle, and he screwed things up with her by cheating. His own mother doesn't even like his uptight behavior, and in her debut she outright asked him if he was 'joyless' (which Frond's reaction implies is a regular occurrence).
  • Hate Sink: With each season, Frond takes another level of jerkass, going from a well-meaning but inept counselor to a petty man with a huge ego and no concern for the children's emotional well-being. Given his attitude, his looking down on the kids and inability to stop thinking so highly of himself, the amount of crap people give him is justified.
  • Hidden Depths: Subverted. In "Every Which Way But Goose" it initially seems like he's about to say he's a graduate of Harvard... and then he finishes his sentence to clarify that he went to Harvardton, further explaining that Harvardton is a community college.
  • Hippie Teacher: He believes in many alternative teaching methods, and "Crawl Space" confirms he's a vegetarian.
  • His Own Worst Enemy: More often than not, Frond's inability to truly make a name for himself is because he's too ego-driven. If he took the time to take in criticism, show empathy for others, as well as realize the flaws of his own ideas, he'd actually get more respect. Instead, he continues to let pettiness and exaggerated self-worth dictate all of his choices.
  • Hypocrite:
    • It becomes increasingly clear he doesn't care about helping kids so much as he desperately wants to make a name for himself as a guidance counselor through his ridiculous programs. Frond's hypocrisy makes him His Own Worst Enemy as a guidance counselor. As much as he claims he understands kids and wants to help them, he's really a judgmental prick unwilling to admit how utterly out of touch he is with the students along with his inability to own up to his mistakes. He also doesn't practice what he preaches and never adheres to his own programs or instructions.
    • He often calls kids stupid behind their backs, even though he's not so bright himself.
    • In "Synchronized Swimming", he threatens the kids to perform for the judges. When Louise mentions the point of Independent Study was to not be judged, he tells her she is judged from the day she's born to the day she dies. When people judge him or even question his clearly ineffective methods, including the superintendent, he quickly becomes defensive and tries to find ways to make people agree with him.
  • Insane Troll Logic: Believes an indoor swimming pool is in no danger of fire solely because there's water. Keep in mind, a fire alarm is blaring at full volume as he says this.
  • Insufferable Imbecile: Aside from being a total jackass in general who is not only awful and unfair to the students and completely arrogant about his guidance counseling skills, he's also actually extremely bad at his job, his guidance counseling skills being questionable at best and horrible at worst, and as an individual he's pretty darn stupid and very gullible to the point where his idiocy is not just recognized by the students but sometimes even outright exploited.
  • It's All About Me: Is generally motivated by self-gain. Louise is often able to manipulate him into doing something she wants by appealing to his selfishness.
    • "Synchronized Swimming" is a prime example of all his negative traits. He initially lets the Belcher kids get away with their "independent study" after they tell him they don't like the competitive nature or being judged in gym. Then it becomes obvious he's just using the synchronized swimming class to make a name for himself with the school board, ordering the kids that they have to take a final exam in front of said school board and that "You are judged from the day you're born to the day you die!" He then threatens the kids with summer school if they don't go along with it.
  • Jerkass: At first glance he looks like a well-meaning but overly emotional guidance counselor who tries too hard to reach out to the kids and teach passive aggressive means of dealing with their problems, and he kind of is. But he's also rather self-absorbed, petty, and cares more about making a name for himself even at the cost of blatantly spreading misinformation and traumatizing the students.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: Make no mistake, he's hardly credible, more than likely not even supposed to be allowed to work with children, and childishly impulsive, but when it comes to the Belchers, both children and adults, he's got some valid problems with them.
    • He's not necessarily wrong to point out how disruptive and disrespectful Louise can be, given she tends to cause trouble without much provocation. While he clearly tends to have it out for her, Louise herself concedes that he's got a point.
    • He's also not wrong to address the Belcher kids' rambunctiousness and mischief (those of which in real life would make them a nightmare for teachers) to Bob and Linda, and often asks them why they don't ever step in and do anything about them. Unfortunately, Bob and Linda don't help whatsoever and are content with their letting their kids do anything they want as long as they don't know about it, because Bob says they don't want to know. For all of Frond's flaws, his exasperation with the Belcher kids' schemes and Bob and Linda's inability to assert any sort of authority is justified, especially for real-life educators who deal with the same kind of troublesome families.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Just when it seems he might be a Jerk with a Heart of Gold, he often says or does something that reminds the audience why nobody likes him.
  • Karmic Butt-Monkey: As mentioned above, the Belcher kids love to make him the victim of their antics. However, considering how pathetic and vain Frond is, it's hard to argue that he doesn't deserve it at least a little.
  • Kavorka Man: Frond is uptight, frumpy, annoying, petty... in short, repulsive in every possible way. Yet he somehow managed to attract both Gayle and another woman he sees on the side while dating the former. Not to mention "Carpe Museum", where he has the museum director practically eating out of his hand until he mentions living with his mother, as well as "Crystal Mess", where he somehow managed to secure not just a second date but a third date with someone named Cassie (though she's implied to be as unusual as Frond is, what with her "healing crystal" and all, so like attracts like).
  • Lack of Empathy: For a guidance counselor, he's pretty bad at understanding how someone's feeling. In "Lobsterfest" when the hurricane warnings are announced, he proposes talking about if some kids might think the hurricane was caused by something bad they did. He then singles out one boy and forces the kid to confess something he told Frond in confidence, browbeating him into shouting "I rubbed my genitals on the couch!" and doing nothing to calm the situation when this causes the other kids to freak out because they think he's caused their impending doom.
  • Last-Name Basis: Largely a given considering he's a school faculty member, but even his colleagues and people outside Wagstaff tend to refer to him by his surname, with very few calling him Phillip. Even Gayle, who was briefly his girlfriend, called him Mr. Frond (much to Bob's surprise, since he understandably assumed otherwise).
  • Lawful Stupid: He seriously, genuinely thinks his hare-brained programs will help kids. He's also a complete moron about it to boot.
  • Manchild: While he tries to act like an authority figure, Frond is very childish, from how much he loves his hand-stitched dolls and toys, to joining in the middle schoolers with insulting other students and recently to calling his bathroom breaks, outright saying immature things such as "going potty" and 'it's pee-pee o'clock'. Hell, he makes even the Belcher kids look mature by comparison.
  • Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher: With a love of therapy toys and general immaturity, Frond should definitely be counseling a lower grade of kids. Which, considering Wagstaff is a K-8 school, means he'd be a better fit for preschoolers.
  • Never My Fault:
    • He never seems to understand the reason the Belchers, Louise in particular, don't like him is because he's such an annoying douche.
    • He's usually seen upset about not meeting someone, but after he finally gets a girlfriend in Linda's sister, Gayle, it's revealed he planned on seeing other women behind her back, making his celibacy his own fault and nobody else's.
    • He whines about the other staff members not inviting him to Martini Tuesdays to the point of making a spectacle out of himself. This is even though he judges people for their drinking habits (and doesn't even drink himself). He never learns his lesson and continues to assume they're being jerks who don't think he's cool enough.
    • When he creates the Teacher Evaluation process in "Touch of Eval(uation)", the teachers are rightfully pissed that he's essentially doomed them to the mercy of the students but he completely fails to see how his thoughtlessness directly caused the same chaos he complained about. And then he takes no responsibility whatsoever even when La Bonz calls him out on it.
  • No Sense of Humor: Despite some pun-related names he has for some of his dolls or yarn-work, it doesn't appear to be for humor's sake. He's described as really uptight and acts as a total wet blanket, with his own mother even asking if he's joyless (and Frond's reaction indicating this isn't the first time she's asked it). He also can't take any sort of joke at his own expense, to the point where he banned Louise from entering the Wagstaff Halloween costume contests just because she poked some fun at him by dressing up as him.
  • Not Me This Time: Even though he's overall unpleasant and antagonistic to the Belchers, he didn't steal Mr. Ambrose's yogurt. Louise still considers letting him take the fall for it, though, and Bob is actually disappointed when she doesn't.
  • Oblivious to His Own Description: While complaining about his fellow guidance counselors in "Live and Let Fly", he remarks that guidance counseling attracts the most uncool people without a hint of self-awareness. He also refers to them as divas.
  • Obliviously Evil: A particularly grating flaw of his. Frond seems to want to help the students as their guidance counselor (even if he doesn't truly care all that much about them), and he seems to also genuinely believes that his idiotic and counterproductive ideas (such as encouraging students to tattle on each other or criticizing other educators except himself) are helpful towards the students even though these ideas do nothing but hurt the students.
  • Oh, Crap!: He freaks out in the movie when Louise's hat falls off. Louise herself is actually calmer than he is about it.
  • Open Mouth, Insert Foot: In "Carpe Museum", he's got the museum director head-over-heels for him, and seems poised to actually get her to be his girlfriend... then he casually tells her to hang up the phone if his mother answers, revealing he's a Basement-Dweller (without being prompted—Frond had zero reason to mention it), which single-handedly kills all interest she had in him.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl: Has an incredibly high-pitched shriek, and does this in almost all his appearances. Special mention goes to "Carpe Museum", when Bob reveals he destroyed the safety vest Frond gave him.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: Since he's mostly a school-based character, he tends to mainly be an antagonist of the Belcher children. This is to the point where he is made the villain of the various Wagstaff Stories they write.
    • Of the kids, Louise hates him the most, and if he's targeting a specific kid it'll likely be her. However, he's also not above targeting the adults—Frond and Bob are also quite hostile to each other, and in Season 1 Frond actually counted more as Bob's enemy.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: He thinks he's an amazing guidance counselor and all the kids love and respect him, even though his counseling programs are ridiculous, he has no idea how to reach out to kids or relate to them, and it's clear most of the students barely even know he's there. Two examples come to mind.
    • His Villainous Breakdown in "The Frond Files" after reading the essays the Belcher siblings wrote, where he's the villain in each of them, made him finally realize the kids don't like him. Either because he's upset that the Belchers dislike him so much, or that it's a blow to his giant ego and he can't comprehend why the kids could possibly dislike him.
    • He brags about having been 7th grade class secretary in "The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets", but it turns out he tampered with the votes by hiding them in a vase in the aforementioned ceramics room. After the ceramics room got sealed up Frond decided not to come clean and has feared if anyone found out he cheated it'd ruin his counseling career. Tina tries to convince Frond his cheating makes him more relatable to the kids he's trying to reach out to because it makes them not so different from each other. Frond tells Tina that's stupid because kids think he's perfect and that's why they like him... ignoring that nobody thinks he's perfect and nobody likes him.
  • Stealing the Credit: Any major breakthrough on the kids' end, or something that a higher-up approves of, he will take the credit for, even though he's almost never involved in any way (sometimes, such as in "Fingers-loose", he even opposes the thing in question until he learns it's been approved of).
  • Strange Minds Think Alike: He shares so many things in common with Gayle that they eventually start a serious relationship... that he ruined when he was cheating on her.
  • Straw Loser: He's a guidance counselor who gets no respect from anyone, he lives with his mother despite being in his 40'snote , and it's regularly pointed out that he's not married and he doesn't have kids of his own. Flashbacks indicate he was very unpopular at school, and his ideas of fun range from boring to downright odd. The few girlfriends he does land are indicated to be just as odd as he is.
  • Thin-Skinned Bully: Out of the teachers, Frond is the biggest jerk among them. He judges others, including his own colleagues, while bolstering himself up as a fantastic guidance counselor. But when others point out that he most definitely is not, he practically has a meltdown. He also actively avoids criticism and treats his colleagues like they're the jerks for excluding him even though his own poor attitude is the reason they do so in the first place.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: In "Y Tu Ga-Ga Tambien," one of his many school programs, installing a Ga-ga Ball pit in the schoolyard, turns out to be a wild success, with even Louise getting into it. Mr. Frond seems surprised that it worked as well as it did.
  • Took a Level in Dumbass: While Mr. Frond was never the sharpest tool in the shed and easily fell for any of Louise's tricks, in recent seasons he's proven to be a completely incompetent dumbass who believes even the most blatantly obvious of lies. And his ideas for the students border between downright weird to straight-up dangerous (i.e Bring a Stranger To School Day) for the kids' wellbeing. It's a wonder how he's still managed to hold onto his job.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: In Season 1, he's an idiotic but well-meaning guy. In Season 2 onwards he becomes an egotistical jerk whose attempts at helping are selfishly motivated. He seems to only be getting worse and worse, as shown by Season 6 (where he arguably commits his most heinous act by knowingly cheating on Gayle).
  • Two-Teacher School: While there are other teachers on the show, Frond tends to be the most recurring teacher and faculty member and can take up disciplinary duties, guidance counselor duties, and teaching at various points. He's incompetent at all of them. It's also played more realistically than usual—it's implied he doesn't actually have the authority or even permission to do most of what he's doing, with "The Gene Mile" revealing he might not be allowed to punish the kids for skipping the mile run simply because it's not his job to do so and "Touch of Eval(uations)" depicting Principal Spoors overriding Frond's refusal to let Louise's second evaluation count. In other words, Frond likely invokes this trope because he's a power-hungry jerkass.
    • Notably, in several in-universe stories ("Buttloose" in "Bad Tina" and "Fart School for the Gifted" in "The Frond Files") he's treated as the headmaster, showing even the kids recognize he's basically the de facto head of Wagstaff.
  • Ultimate Job Security: Unlike most examples of this trope, though, Frond's skills (or lack thereof) aren't a good enough excuse—putting it simply, Frond should not have lasted more than a month at Wagstaff. It's implied the only reason Principal Spoors keeps him around is because there's nobody to replace him—the one time Frond does face termination (in "The Fresh Princ-Ipal"), he's quickly rehired after his replacement suffers a nervous breakdown and quits.
    • Worth noting is that in "The Frond Files" he mentions his credentials aren't valid in the state. In "Every Which Way But Goose" he indicates that his highest level of education was community college, meaning he only has an associate's degree (assuming he even graduated) while most if not all guidance counselor positions require a master's degree. In other words, Frond isn't just unqualified in the sense that he's incompetent, he's unqualified in that he should never have been hired in the first place because he lacks the required education. Yet somehow he remains employed to this day.
  • Vote Early, Vote Often: Arguably his greatest accomplishment is winning the election for class secretary in seventh grade... well, it would be, if he hadn't rigged it by stealing most of his opponent's ballots and hiding them in a vase. That said, it was so spur of the moment that he only got away due to the ceramics room being boarded up due to a fire (he even planned a confession prior to then).
  • Would Hit a Girl: In "Bob & Deliver", when Bob asks if they're supposed to be challenging the kids in school during his substitute teaching stint, Frond assumes he means challenging them to a fight. Frond is horrified at the notion but says he'd consider it if he was fighting the girls, and even then, his tone seemed to say he wouldn't fight the kids because he knows they could wipe the floor with him.
  • Wrong Line of Work: He's a guidance counselor who is completely unable and unwilling to understand the students, is more judgmental than compassionate, and cares more about making a name for himself than actually helping anyone.

    The Cranwinkles 

Edith and Harold Cranwinkle

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bb_harold_and_edith_cranwrinkle.png
"FILTH!"
Edith voiced by: Larry Murphy
Harold voiced by: Sam Seder

A grumpy senior couple who own an arts and crafts shop called Reflections.


  • Big Guy, Little Guy: Harold is big, Edith is small.
  • Big Word Shout: A Running Gag features Edith appearing in the background and shouting something random, such as "NUDE!" or "FILTH!"
  • A Day in the Limelight: "Bobby Driver" is Edith's largest role since her debut, revealing quite a lot about her past and even focusing on her as a supporting character rather than as an antagonist (as happened in her other major role, "Art Crawl").
  • Enemy Mine: Bob and Edith work together in "Bobby Driver" to help Edith get back at her quilting group. While Bob is largely reluctant to help out, the two actually make a pretty good team.
  • Everyone Has Standards: They may be Moral Guardians who use their authority over the Wharf's Art Crawl to censor art they deem inappropriate, but they wouldn't go so far as to deface another person's work of art.
  • Evil Old Folks: "Evil" is kind of a stretch, but Edith is very unpleasant and makes things difficult for the Belchers because she thinks they're pigs and should burn in Hell.
  • Fat and Skinny: Edith is fat while Harold is skinny.
  • Fat Bastard: Edith is only a little fat, but she definitely has the rudeness.
  • Fan Disservice: Bob has to paint Edith nude in "Midday Run", and judging by his reaction he'll have mental scars for a long time.
  • Gasshole: "Bobby Driver" reveals that Edith has a problem with flatulence and has to take gas pills whenever she gets farts.
  • Henpecked Husband: Harold never goes against what his wife says or does.
  • Hidden Depths: "Bobby Driver" reveals that Edith was babysat by the freaks of the Freak Show that existed in the town years and years ago. She clearly loves them and they were responsible for keeping her safe, in line and out of trouble, and she reacts pretty harshly when her quilting group refuses to have her square of them added to the town history quilt.
  • Honor Before Reason:
    • Edith would rather let Harold dehydrate than let him drink water from Bob's Burgers, even though Harold really needs it and Bob is willing to give it to him. She outright slaps the glass out of his hand.
    • Edith once got stuck in a bathroom for three weeks, and drank toilet water to survive. Escaping was as simple as calling for help, but she refused to in order to preserve her self-respect.
  • Hypocritical Humor: Edith has a vendetta against anything she perceives as lewd art (and has a much stricter definition than most of what "lewd" means) but regularly models for nude paintings at her shop, allows others to do the same, and even calls her naked body the most beautiful thing Bob will ever see.
  • Jerkass: Edith will frequently come by just to insult Bob.
  • Large Ham: Edith really likes to yell. Sometimes she'll show up in an episode just to yell something at random and then leave without any other indication she was even there.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: In "Midday Run", Edith makes Bob paint her nude even though Bob is clearly unwilling/uncomfortable. Three episodes later, in "Can't Buy Me Math", Bob (albeit accidentally) pays her back for the mental trauma by putting on a striptease for Linda while the window is open and Edith is across the street, forcing her to see so many things she rather wouldn't.
    Edith: ASS!
  • Moral Guardian: During "Art Crawl" Edith tries to censor Gayle's animal anus paintings because she thinks they're inappropriate. Bob initially hated them too and thought they were bad for business, but shifted priorities because he didn't like that Edith was trying to tell him what he could and couldn't hang up in his own establishment.
  • The Napoleon: Edith is short and is mean to Bob and she's also more imposing than Harold.
  • The Nicknamer: Harold never calls Bob by his real name.
  • Noodle Incident: The Cranwinkles are the source of quite a few, given they're old enough to have lived through a lot of things.
    Edith: There'll be riots! Again!
  • No Sympathy: Harold has less-than-perfect health (to the point of having a stroke at one point in the past). Edith thinks he's being a baby about it. She once even knocked a glass of water from Harold's hand as he was in the midst of an awful coughing fit, solely because the water came from Bob.
  • No, You: Harold ends up in a shouting match with Louise that's just them yelling "You smell like ointment and pee!" for a good long while.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: Edith let Gene and Tina take her art class despite her feud with Bob and personal dislike of the kids simply because her class is open to anyone interested in art, but they either left or she kicked them out when Bob destroyed nearly $1000 in merchandise.
  • Satellite Character: Though the two are often seen together, Harold seems to play this role especially, as he doesn't get much characterization besides his interactions with Edith, and he never appears without Edith (whereas Edith has had multiple solo appearances). A lot of tropes in this folder mostly pertain to Edith, and most of Harold's own tropes also tie into his dynamic with Edith.
  • Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!: Edith, especially to Bob.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: Edith and Bob have a fairly contentious, but harmless dislike of each other. Harold also gets into it with Louise in "Art Crawl".
  • Those Two Guys: Almost always seen together.
  • Too Much Information: While at a businesswoman club in "Mommy Boy", Edith shares information regarding her and Harold's sex life with no prompting.
  • Yes-Man: Harold agrees with almost anything Edith says, and will outright contradict himself to do so.

    Tammy Larsen 

Tammy Larsen

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tammy2.jpg
"Don't be such a boob punch."
Voiced by: Jenny Slate

A former fake friend of Tina's and the resident Alpha Bitch of Wagstaff. In spite of her awful attitude, constant bullying, and the fact that very few people actually like her, she's nonetheless able to remain (or maintain the facade of remaining) one of Wagstaff's most popular students.


  • Alpha Bitch: Deconstructed. She acts like she's the queen of the school, and makes everything about her. As a result, instead of having legions of friends, she only has a few who barely tolerate her, and anyone who's not her friend absolutely hates her (or otherwise doesn't even care about her enough to hate her). She's only able to maintain the illusion of popularity through extracurriculars (she's the anchorwoman for the school news and a member of the cheerleading team) and being rich (not rich enough to be considered one of the town's elite, but definitely richer than pretty much everyone else at Wagstaff).
  • Bad Liar: She always tries to pin her farts on someone else. Even Jocelyn can tell that she's lying.
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: In "Mazel-Tina", she tells Tina not to stop the party no matter what. Tina complies with this exactly, even when "no matter what" includes Tammy being trapped inside a giant sculpture of her own head, resulting in her missing the entire party when Tina doesn't stop things to find her.
  • Bratty Teenage Daughter: Tammy will outright bully her parents into giving her whatever she wants, helped by t he fact her father is quite spineless and will bend to her will whenever she pushes for it. It's implied that this has caused them to go very hands-off with the intention of not wanting to deal with her, for example, unloading responsibilities for watching over and catering to her during her birthday in "Mazel-Tina" to the party planner and refusing to leave their cruise even when they forgot her on land in "Sleeping with the Frenemy", happily offloading her to the Belchers, a family that they never interact much with.
  • The Bully: Tina's her most frequent victim, but Tammy doesn't always stop at her.
    • When Tina calls her out on this in "Sit Me Baby One More Time" (due to competing against Tina as a good babysitter), she complains that Tina is one simply because she called Tammy horrible and a bad babysitter (which may be Brutal Honesty, but it's still honesty). The other kids stupidly agree with Tammy, and Tina completely buys it.
    • It shows up again in the Season 12 finale, where she uses a new segment on the school news to basically hype up herself and people she likes while being a complete asshole to everyone else. It gets so bad that even Jimmy Jr. and Zeke, who are usually bystanders to her nonsense, actually call her out on it (granted, this was because Tammy targeted the former, but still), and in an aversion of School Bullying Is Harmless it's shown that her bullying has actually started to have a negative effect on Tina's self-esteem.
  • Characterization Marches On: In her first appearance, she had a crush on Zeke, which was even a semi-major plot point. This crush isn't brought up again in any of her subsequent appearances, and in fact she's shown to even be somewhat repulsed by him (showing annoyance in "UFO No You Didn't" when they're assigned as science fair partners).
  • Control Freak: She gets this hard in "Mazel-Tina". Bob outright tells her to her face that she's overreacting, and it's to the point that one of her party planners quits on her (with some prodding from Louise). As seen above in Be Careful What You Wish For, it backfires on her hard.
  • Daddy's Girl: Downplayed, but the way she speaks to her mother in "Mazel Tina" compared to the way she is with her father implies that she's closer to the latter. It helps that Tammy seems to interact with her dad more than her mom, even if she's not exactly respectful to either of them.
  • Dirty Coward: At the first sign of trouble, Tammy will not hesitate to ditch any of her friends and has no problem throwing them to the wolves as seen in "Lice Things Are Lice".
    • In "FOMO You Didn't" when the nine and eleven year old Louise and Gene respectively threaten to beat her up after she destroyed Tina's negative, she very quickly tries to retreat while acting like everything is fine and dandy.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: In "Bad Tina", she blackmails Tina into spending time with her and misbehaving by threatening to give Jimmy, Jr. an erotic story Tina wrote about him. Then when Tina fails to show up for a double date and ruins Tammy's chances with Zeke (because Tina got grounded for trying to sneak out in the middle of the night with a bottle of margarita mix, using the family's emergency phone to text Tammy, and calling Linda a boob punch), Tammy decides to read the story to the entire school.
    • She also got a barista fired for no other reason than the fact that the poor worker misspelled her name with an 'i' on a coffee she ordered.
  • Dumb Blonde: She's not a natural blonde, but she's definitely stupid enough to qualify when she does go blonde.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: In her first appearance, she was a brunette, but she dyed her hair blonde in her next appearance, which stayed that way for the rest of the series (her true hair color is alluded to on a few occasions). Her nose is also noticeably smaller after her first appearance. To be fair, it wouldn't be out-of-character to have had a nose job...
  • Excessive Evil Eyeshadow: Well, she's not exactly evil, but she is bitchy and her eyeshadow makes her stand out when it comes to the rest of the cast.
  • Foil: She's one to Tina in many ways, and even their debut episode showcases how drastically different they are and later episodes only continue to emphasize their differences.
    • Tina is socially awkward and generally off-putting to others, but at her core she's a Nice Girl who stays true to herself. Tammy's social skills are better and she can approach people without making them too uncomfortable, but she's a jerkass who can barely feign a pleasant demeanor before her unpleasant traits become apparent.
    • Tina comes from a struggling working-class family, lives in an apartment and works a daily job at her family's restaurant. Tammy's family is quite wealthy and they live in their own house, although it's not stated what her parents do it's clear that Tammy is well-off.
    • For the most part, Tina appreciates what she has, and although at times she can display a Bratty Teenage Daughter attitude, Tina always bounces back and she genuinely loves her family and respects them and what they do for her; Tammy however is a complete Spoiled Brat who never learns anything and she has little to no respect for her parents, and it seems that the feeling is mutual given that her parents don't appear all that fond of her.
    • Whenever Tina manages to get lucky with the opposite sex (which is more than often), it's because she endears to them with her charmingly awkward self and she's always genuinely interested and kind to them; Tammy tries way too hard to get boys to like her, and her attractions and interactions with boys are purely superficial and thus almost never catches the attention of anybody.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: She's often seeing hanging out with Jocelyn, Jimmy Jr. and Zeke, but none of them appear to be all that fond of her.
  • Friendly Enemy: Tina is still very cordial with her, which angers Tammy. However, this is later subverted when Tina starts actively fighting back against her, but this doesn't stop them from working together when it's needed.
  • Gasshole: She gives Gene a run for his money as one of if not the most flatulent character on the show. She'll involuntarily pass gas for any reason at all. In fact, the only time she can't fart is when she wants to, something she lampshades.
  • Hated by All: Her "friends" only tolerate her at best, even Jocelyn has her limits with her, the actual popular kids don't seem to even know her, Tina has been growing more and more hostile to her, and the rest of the Belchers despise her (Bob thinks she's an obnoxious drama queen, the usually-friendly Linda and Gene are impatient with her, and Louise loathes her with every fiber of her being). Being an obnoxious bitch to everyone you meet tends to get those kinds of results.
  • Hate Sink: By far one of the most unlikeable characters in the show. Her constant and unnecessary bullying of Tina is bad enough, but her blatant narcissism, constant rudeness, and lack of empathy make her a constant annoyance both in-and-out-of universe.
  • Hidden Depths: She might be a pompous, self-acclaimed popular girl with the confidence to boot, but even she has moments of being just as nervous and awkward as Tina, as shown where she couldn't even speak to an older, taller high school boy at a high school party.
    • For all her faults, Tammy seems to know Tina on a level that none of the other students or any of Tina's other peers do. Albeit she's not very nice about it, but she understands how eccentric Tina is, as she immediately believes her when she confesses to pretending to have a boyfriend and the fact that she let her go out with a guy who was just as odd as she was. She also knows about Tina's Love Freak tendencies as it's the reason why she didn't invite her to an Anti-Valentine's Day party.
  • Hypocrite: On a good day.
    • She accuses Tina of copying her when both girls show up to school wearing the same bracelet in "The Runway Club", despite Tina having no way of knowing or anticipating Tammy would have the same bracelet. 2 seasons later in "Teen-a Witch", she outright steals Tina's idea of a costume to use in a contest.
    • In "Sit Me Baby One More Time", she has the nerve to call Tina a bully just because she called her 'horrible' (which isn't untrue), when Tammy herself has called Tina plenty of mean names and done far worse bullying to her. Granted, Tina did display a more abrasive side in this episode, but nowhere near abrasive enough to justify Tammy calling her a bully and absolutely not enough to justify Zeke siding with Tammy instead of Tina.
    • In "Go Tina On the Mountain", she spends the entire episode calling Tina an Embarrassing Nickname. When Tina calls her a labeler, she has the gall to accuse Tina of name-calling her.
  • Informed Judaism: "Mazel-Tina" is the only indication she's Jewish, otherwise she fits the stereotype of the spoiled WASP.
  • It's All About Me: Her defining character trait. She seems to genuinely think she's the center of the universe.
    • Case in point, her ideal theme for her Bat Mitzvah? Herself.
  • Jerkass: Starting from her debut, Tammy instantly proves to be a bad influence and a total jerk to Tina who blackmails her and forces her to do bad things. In present seasons she hasn't improved, as she's still self-centered, a spoiled rotten brat and a bully who thinks doing mean things to people is hilarious and when push comes to shove, Tammy would rather help herself even when her friends or other things important to her friends are on the line.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: She'll only be friendly when you happen to have something she wants. And not even that will save you from her awful attitude.
  • Jewish American Princess: "Mazel Tina" reveals she's Jewish.
  • Karma Houdini: Zigzagged; even if Tammy evades direct punishment for her shenanigans, she'll almost always lose out on what she wants.
  • Kent Brockman News: Becomes the school news anchorwoman in "Broadcast Wagstaff School News", and has remained in that position ever since.
  • Lack of Empathy: She is aware of her own feelings and insecurities, and calls out Tina for hurting her feelings when the latter called the former 'horrible', however, Tammy can't seem to comprehend that Tina herself has insecurities and feelings that Tammy has hurt plenty of times.
  • Large Ham: Tammy loves to chew the scenery.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Whether it's being laughed out of the cafeteria while trying to humiliate Tina, or missing her entire Bat Mitzvah after spending the episode as an obnoxious Control Freak, every bad thing that happens to her is 100% deserved and 100% satisfying to watch.
  • Manipulative Bitch: Debatable, given that she mainly manipulates Tina and the rest of her friends, each of them all The Ditz, but she nonetheless uses flattery and smooth-talking to get what she wants and often uses these tactics on other classmates.
  • Moral Myopia: Tammy appears and acts proud to be a bully, even once casually calling herself "jealous and horrible" and in general she finds doing mean things to other people hilarious, but whenever Tina fights back and even calls her "horrible", Tammy is genuinely offended and has the nerve to call Tina a bully for rightfully calling her out.
  • Narcissist: Deludes herself into thinking she's the most popular girl in school with zero evidence, constantly seeks attention and praise from everyone around her, and once threw a bat mitzvah entirely themed after herself.
  • Never My Fault: When it comes to farting, she almost always tries to deny it or blame it on someone else. It's sort of a Running Gag at this point.
    • She also seems to know that what she does is wrong, particularly stealing and skipping school, but whenever she gets in trouble or fears punishment, she'd rather blame Tina and pressure her into letting her get away with her crimes rather than face any of her consequences.
  • New Transfer Student: In her first appearance. By the time she reappears, she acts like she's been in Wagstaff her whole life.
  • Nice Mean And In Between: Among the trio of blonde girls who associate with the Belcher kids, Tammy is firmly the Mean with what little moments of humanity she demonstrates not enough to balance out what an obnoxious and selfish bully she is towards Tina.
  • Parental Neglect: Downplayed. While they aren't outright neglectful, what we've seen from her parents implies that while they do appear to love Tammy, they're not all that attentive of her, as in "Mazel Tina" despite them claiming that they were looking for her, it's implied by the fact that they're still carrying around (and drinking) alcohol that they really weren't, or at least weren't putting in as much effort as they could have.
    • In fact, her parents are pretty much the exact opposite of Bob and Linda, who would go through Hell and back for their kids (and actually have on multiple occasions). In "Sleeping With The Frenemy", Tammy's father made it clear that he wasn't willing to take a medevac to retrieve his daughter when she was left behind from a cruise because of his airsickness (while Bob and Linda would do the same in a heartbeat), and Tammy's mother didn't seem that bothered by their daughter being left behind. They didn't even seem worried about where their own daughter was going to stay for a week. Given her attitude though, it's hard to see why even her own parents wouldn't want to help her.
  • Pet the Dog: Despite her general awful attitude, Tammy's had some rare moments of decency that are worth noting.
    • She was genuinely touched by Darryl getting together with Rosa, and seemed surprisingly supportive of the (fake) relationship between Tina and Darryl.
    • She immediately noticed Jimmy Jr.'s newfound jealousy of Zeke after he starts bonding with Gene, and Tammy actually gives him some pretty solid advice to win him back.
    • As dumb and superficial as they both are, Tammy seems to genuinely like Jocelyn, referring to her as her best friend and spending most of, if not all her time hanging out with Jocelyn.
    • While she tried to keep boy of the week Brett from Tina for a majority of "Sleeping With The Frenemy", she ultimately decided to let Tina have him since she saw that they had chemistry and even volunteered to cover Tina's shift at the restaurant to allow them to go on a date.
    • In "Legends of the Mall," she admits that Tina is indeed mall game.
    • When she caught Tina trying to destroy the touchscreen used for the school news in the Season 12 finale, she has the opportunity to sell Tina out to Yuli the security guard without any consequences (since Yuli already knows Tammy's there, she wouldn't get in trouble alongside Tina for sneaking in after hours). But after thinking about it, she instead covers for Tina and lets her leave, and even goes the extra mile to stop using the touchscreen to bully others (not that it stops her from bullying period; that's asking too much from her).
  • Playing the Victim Card: On the rare occasion Tina fully calls her out on her crap, she'll immediately start acting like Tina is bullying her. She almost seems to genuinely believe it, too.
  • Rich Bitch: Emphasis on the "bitch" part.
  • The Rival: To Tina, though she's actively more aggressive than Tina (at least until Tina starts fighting back in later seasons).
  • Shadow Archetype: For Tina. In many ways, Tammy is what Tina wishes she could be: Confident, loud, socially assertive, and, for lack of a better word, shameless, since Tina is often held back from her desires due to her scruples. Tammy owns also what Tina lacks a cell phone, cosmetics, etc. However, Tammy shows exactly how repulsive Tina would be if she were an unfettered and selfish teenage brat.
  • Skipping School: In both "Bad Tina" and "FOMO You Didn't", the latter of which reveals she regularly does this. Both times she also manipulates Tina into doing so as well.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: Tammy acts like she's a super popular Alpha Bitch, but it seems the one person who's both aware of her and actually likes her is Jocelyn, and even she doesn't seem to like Tammy very much.
  • Spoiled Brat: Is yelling at her mom over the phone in "Mazel Tina", and at her rabbi. And in general she feels entitled to anything she wants, is used to a cushy-life style while she makes fun of others who don't have what she has, has high standards and doesn't even know what the word 'work' means.
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Whenever she works with the Belcher kids, they clearly don't get along and are simply working towards a common goal.
  • Thin-Skinned Bully: She loves being mean and making fun of others, especially Tina, but god forbid someone else does it to her or call her out on her nonsense as she acts extremely offended when under the impression that Tina is calling her names and freaks out when Tina does call her 'horrible' to the point of calling Tina a bully and this is despite the fact that Tammy herself is the real bully and has done and called Tina way worse. Although Tina's self-esteem has gradually worn down throughout the seasons, she can at least take what Tammy dishes out, but it seems that Tammy outright can't take what she dishes out.
  • Those Two Guys: With Jocelyn.
  • Token Evil Teammate: She's in a group with Jocelyn, Jimmy Jr. and Zeke. Individually, the three of them are actually pretty okay kids who treat other kids and adults relatively well (when Tammy isn't around), but Tammy is the meanest and most disrespectful, being a Spoiled Brat who is rude to literally everyone, including to her own friends, teachers and parents.
  • Token Rich Student: Wagstaff is primarily comprised of kids from lower/middle-class families. Tammy is just about the only student there explicitly stated to come from a wealthy background.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Tammy once triggered a likely-severe allergic reaction to shellfish on purpose just so she could get a specific look she wanted for school picture day.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: She was always a jerk but for the most part she wasn't that bad and was pretty easy to take down a peg and always suffered for her crimes. In more recent seasons her bullying of Tina only gets worse and worse and almost nobody (not even the Belchers) are able to do anything about it. Tammy's bullying has gotten so bad that Tina's usual confidence has begun dwindling and she's become even more insecure than before, with the Season 12 finale in particular removing any comedic aspects to Tammy's nonsense and playing it for drama instead.
  • Toxic Friend Influence: In her debut she plays this straight to Tina, although Tina hated and regretted each thing Tammy made her do and it didn't take long for her to turn away from her. Nowadays Tammy is certainly no friend to Tina, but she can still influence and encourage Tina to participate in misbehaving and do bad things that could get her in trouble.
    • She's also this to Jocelyn, Jimmy Jr. and Zeke. The three of them are noticeably much more decent, if dimwitted, kids when on their own, but whenever Tammy is among their group they become much more obnoxious, rude and unpleasant. Not to mention that she's the one who actively encourages and instigates them to do bad things such as skip school, mock dead fetal pigs and on occasion insult Tina.
  • Ungrateful Bitch: In "Sleeping With The Frenemy". While Tina had an ulterior motive to get her generosity Thundergirl badge, it was pretty darn generous of her to let Tammy stay at her house while she was accidentally left behind when her parents went on their cruise, however, Tammy acts like a complete brat and criticizes everything the Belchers do for her, including Linda's cooking and when Bob dries out her hair, and not once is appreciative of their efforts or for the fact that they welcomed her into their home (reluctantly, but still). The Belchers eventually get so sick of her that they make her work in the restaurant to earn her stay there.
  • Unusual Euphemism: "Don't be such a boob punch!"
  • Would Rather Suffer: She'd rather have lice than dandruff.

    Chuck Charles 

Chuck Charles

Voiced by: Thomas Lennon

A television personality who works for Channel 13, he holds a grudge against the Belchers for their antics leading to the cancellation of one of his earlier shows. Despite the fact that it was Linda who caused it, he seems to hate Bob the most.


  • Alliterative Name: Chuck Charles.
  • Ambiguously Bi: He was married to Pam for many years, but his interactions with Skip Marooch in "Best Burger" imply he also has a thing for men.
  • Amicable Exes: Subverted. He worked with his ex Pam on their show Get On Up and many believed that they were a Happily Married couple, however outside the show it's revealed that they are divorced and that they don't really get along well at all.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Fittingly for someone named Chuck, he hasn't appeared since Season 5's "Best Burger" (outside of a small cameo in the Season 6 finale that's so minor it's easily missed). Why he hasn't appeared in later episodes is a mystery, as nobody has even mentioned him since then.
  • Evil Is Petty: He'll do anything and everything to make Bob suffer—even after he already gets his revenge in "Family Fracas", he continues to harass Bob just because he can. And that's saying nothing about his many insults, which are so childish they make Jimmy Pesto seem like an accomplished wordsmith.
  • Hate Sink: He tries to incite Bob and Gene to physical violence, he never gets any comeuppance outside of his debut episode, and his insults towards Bob are pointlessly petty and frequent enough to the point that they arguably cross the line to actual harassment. Safe to say he's not very well-liked.
  • How the Mighty Have Fallen: Went from hosting a massively popular TV show to hosting a small burger competition in a middle-of-nowhere town. While "Family Fracas" indicates he's doing well enough for himself, his fame just hasn't recovered since "Beefsquatch".
  • If It Bleeds, It Leads: His motive for riling up Bob and Gene is to use their fighting to boost his viewership.
  • Irrational Hatred: His total loathing of Bob makes no sense due to the fact that Chuck blames him for his career being ruined, despite that it was Linda who actually got his morning show cancelled (which Bob bluntly points out in Chuck's third appearance).
  • Jerkass: Extremely petty and spiteful towards Bob.
  • Karma Houdini: Never gets his comeuppance for helping the Pestos cheat and destroying the evidence in "Family Fracas" or harassing Bob throughout "Best Burger". The most he gets in the latter is his statements about Bob's burger being terrible immediately proven wrong.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Tries to incite Bob and Gene to physical violence in order to get his show bigger ratings than ever before. The resulting chaos gets his show cancelled and nearly ruins his career.
  • Misplaced Retribution: While he hates all of the Belchers, it was specifically Linda who got his show cancelled in "Beefsquatch", yet in spite of this Chuck seems to hate Bob the most. Bob lampshades it in "Best Burger", though by this point Chuck doesn't care.
    Bob: Uh, I didn't get you fired, Linda did.
    Linda: Hi Chuck!
  • Repetitive Name: A 'Classic Classical' (short first name and a last name that is like the first but longer) example on the face of it. However, Chuck is also a common nickname for "Charles," which would make him a 'Classic Classic' example of this trope too if logic follows (his full name would be Charles Charles).
  • The Resenter: To the Belcher family.
  • Tempting Fate: As Bob's black garlic burger is being judged in "Best Burger", Chuck tells the audience to prepare for the judges to spit it out immediately, like what happened to Jimmy Pesto just before. Cue the judges giving Bob's burger very high praise and eating the entire thing.
  • Villain with Good Publicity: In the eyes of many, he's just an affable TV host—one with a few hiccups in the past, but overall a neat guy. In reality, however, he's extremely petty, needlessly rude, and just a piece of crap in general.

    Millie Frock 

Millie Frock

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/millie_frock.jpg
"Little bunny Lou-Lou, hopping through the forest..."
Voiced by: Molly Shannon

A psychotic young girl who either wants to be Louise's friend or be her in general. Or be in a rap duo with her. Louise has no idea and just wants her gone.


  • Abhorrent Admirer: She desires to be "friends" with a girl who is both terrified and annoyed with her.
  • Ambiguously Gay: There are mild hints that her obsession with Louise isn't just friendship-wise. Though assuming this is the case, it would fall under Incompatible Orientation (given the few times Louise has shown romantic interest in anyone have been exclusively towards boys).
  • Awesomeness by Analysis: In "The Silence of The Louise", Millie is able to figure out the culprit who wrecked Mr. Frond's therapy dolls through photos of the crime scene (due to being stuck at home due to recovering from a serious dental procedure).
  • Ax-Crazy: Has, uh, nearly killed people.
  • Berserk Button: The mere thought of anyone interfering with her plans to make Louise her bestie.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Well, Bitch In Bunny's Clothing. She ditches the bunny costume after "Fort Night", though she does maintain her sweet facade up until the end of "The Millie-churian Candidate", where she attempts to kill a student in front of the entire school. Up until that point in the episode, she was able to convince everyone in school that she's interested in being president to help the other students. She really only wants the power to make Louise her friend, using a "bestie system". However, her fake attitude almost helped her win the election.
  • Cloud Cuckoolander: About as much as Gene. This also drives Louise nuts.
  • Creepy Child: It's not just her fixation with Louise, either—there's something genuinely off about her. A good moment occurs early in "The Millie-churian Candidate" after Louise departs from Millie's presence, where Millie starts singing a really creepy song to herself.
    Millie: Little bunny Lou-Lou, hopping through the forest...
  • Cute and Psycho: She's cute in appearance, but she has a disturbing obsession with Louise and has almost murdered people.
  • Easily Forgiven: In her second appearance, she appears to have forgiven Louise for what she said in "Fort Night". Though considering this is Millie, it makes sense.
    • Millie herself is also pretty quickly forgiven for nearly getting six kids killed in her debut. Louise still hates her, Darryl never appears in an episode with her again so his viewpoint is unknown, and the Pesto twins are dumb enough to straight-up forget what they went through, but Gene and Tina ignoring this and even considering voting for her over Louise is downright odd.
  • Enemy Mine: Louise is forced to engage in this with Millie in The Silence of The Louise, engaging in playdates with Millie to get her help in discovering who wrecked Mr. Frond's therapy dolls.
  • Enfant Terrible: She's fine with killing others as long as it means she can befriend Louise.
  • Evil Counterpart: She's Louise without her manipulative prowess or slight sense of right and wrong. To drive the point home, when we first met Millie she is dressed in a bunny costume with ears that won't stand upright. Contrast this to Louise who wears normal clothes and a bunny ears hat which are always upright. However, by her second appearance, her manipulative prowess has become much better (albeit, still not nearly as skilled as Louise, who managed to outwit her into revealing her plan and nearly killing another student) and she utilized Louise's paranoia to pull a Wounded Gazelle Gambit and make herself beloved by their classmates.
  • Eye Twitch: Not as prominent as her other traits, but her eyes have a tendency to twitch whenever she's being particularly stalkerish. Considering this is one of Louise's own habits, one has to wonder if Millie saw her do it once and decided to copy it.
  • For the Evulz: What she does to the kids inside their box fort, including making them believe she's dumping spiders in and taunting them with Halloween candy.
  • Hazy-Feel Turn: In her later appearances, Louise has shown more willingness to tolerate Millie's presence but doesn't consider her a friend and probably never will. On her end, Millie gradually moves away from being an antagonist to an obsessive associate of Louise with a rather dubious sense of morality. She's no longer scheming to force Louise to be her best friend, but is just as obsessed with her without being so violent about it.
  • Hidden Disdain Reveal: "The Silence of the Louise" implies she doesn't like Tina and Gene. She addresses both of them as simply "not-Louise", basically kicks them out of her house once her play-date/investigation with Louise begins, and has never mentioned either of them to her mom among the many stories Millie shares about Louise's life (meaning Millie's mom didn't know Tina and Gene even existed until they paid a visit). Keep in mind it's not just her being hyper-focused on Louise—she even mentioned Bob, Linda, Teddy, Teddy's job, and the restaurant.
  • If I Can't Have You…: If Louise won't be her friend, she will torment her to no end.
  • I Just Want to Be You: Louise thinks this may be the case with Millie but isn't sure because Millie is such an aggravating nut job.
    • Pretty much confirmed in "The Silence of the Louise" when we finally get to see her room. It's an exact replica of Louise's room, down to having the same Japanese stuffed animals on the shelf. She also read the same book as Louise for a school read-a-thon.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: When the Belcher kids seemingly died in her debut in "Fort Night", she was horrified, but it was only because she was more worried about getting into trouble than their well-being.
  • Karma Houdini: In her first appearance, the only comeuppance we see her get is Louise and the others she trapped taking her candy. There's no serious punishment for keeping the kids trapped in the fort all night.
    • Zigzagged in "The Millie-churian Candidate". While Louise is able to expose her to the student body and get her disqualified, she doesn't get suspended or expelled for literally trying to strangle a student to death.
  • Kids Are Cruel: Goes above and beyond what other kids in the show are willing to do—namely, actual physical violence.
  • Lack of Empathy: When she thinks she accidentally killed the kids she's more concerned with how much trouble she's gonna be in.
  • Lipstick Lesbian: If her fascination with Louise is romantic, she would count as this. Her sole non-Louise interest is the Fairie Princess Promenade, suggesting she's something of a girly girl when not trying to copy Louise.
  • Manipulative Bitch: In "The Millie-churian Candidate" she got most of the school on her side during the election and even nearly swayed Gene and Tina against their own sister, although she managed to achieve this mostly because Louise's efforts to smear Millie only endeared her to everyone.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Though she doesn't feel any guilt for trapping the kids in their fort in "Fort Night," when she thinks that they got killed when the truck that was blocking them there backed up and crushed the fort, she becomes extremely distraught.
  • Nice Mean And In Between: Among the trio of blonde girls who associate with the Belcher kids, Millie eventually takes on the In-Between role as someone Louise begrudgingly associates with after Millie's less desirable traits were toned down over time.
  • Perpetual Smiler: In most of her early appearances before she Took a Level in Kindness.
  • The Rival: To Louise in an obsessive way.
  • Shadow Archetype: She's basically Season 1-to-3 era Louise without any of the redeeming qualities.
  • The Sociopath: She was bad in "Fort Night", and got worse in "The Millie-churian Candidate" where she showed she is more than willing to kill someone if it means Louise will be her best friend.
    • It must be said, however, that Millie is indeed aware that her actions are not right. When she tries killing Abby in front of the student body, she quickly stops after realizing what she's doing and that there are witnesses. During "Fort Night", her only concern when it looked as though the kids died because of her was that she was going to get in trouble. So while she knows her actions are wrong, she doesn't feel guilty, she just doesn't want to get in trouble.
  • Stalker without a Crush: She's always obsessed with Louise, and wants to be her best friend. Louise would rather have nothing to do with her.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: Played with. In her later appearances, she's still obsessed with Louise and retains a dubious sense of morality but she's not as violent as before. In turn, Louise doesn't consider her a friend and likely never will (which is quite justified), but she's willing to at least tolerate Millie more and even work with her if necessary, and the mere mention of Millie no longer pushes her Berserk Button.
  • Woman Scorned: When Louise finally has enough and tells Millie exactly what she thinks of her, Millie decides to leave Louise and the others trapped in their box fort while routinely coming back just to torture them.
  • Wounded Gazelle Gambit: During "The Millie-churian Candidate", she uses Louise's smear campaign against her to earn sympathy from the students, further inflamed when Louise's actions during the debate make her seem like she's an unhinged psycho who's needlessly attacking Millie.
  • Yandere: Pretty well sums her up. She has attacked people she considers in the way of her and Louise's friendship.
  • You Monster!: Tina calls her a monster when Millie flaunts her newly acquired Halloween candy.

    Logan Bush 

Logan Barry Bush

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/logan_bush.jpg
"Let me give you the Reverse Norwegian Stink Hold. It only takes a minute, but you'll remember it for the rest of your life!"
Voiced by: Kurt Braunohler

A sullen teenager with a bad attitude who attends Huxley High School. Initially introduced as the antagonist of "Ears-y Rider", Logan has since become a Sitcom Arch-Nemesis to Louise.


  • The Bad Guy Wins: After getting his shirt smeared by accident by Louise and Gene in "Large Brother, Where Fart Thou?", he actually manages to punish Gene (but lets Louise go because Gene protected her from him) without even getting an earful from an adult.
  • The Bully: Generally acts this way towards Louise, but apparently has this reputation towards others as he used to also pick on Rudy's cousin Mandy, and likewise, other kids at his high school aren't fond of him because of his attitude.
  • Casting Gag: His voice actor, Kurt Braunohler, has performed as a comedy double act for several years with Kristen Schaal, who voices his nemesis, Louise.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Terrorizing two children with threats of physical assault (and later following through on one of them) is a pretty extreme reaction to getting covered in moldy cantaloupe.
  • Embarrassing Middle Name: "Barry" isn't actually an embarrassing middle name in and of itself, but saying his full name out loud sounds like "loganberry bush". His mother admits that she and her husband didn't think that one through.
  • Enemy Mine: With Louise in "Mother Daughter Laser Razor"; it's the one time they ever interact on decent terms.
  • Expy: Of Scott Tenorman, being a teenage bully who decides to antagonize a manipulative child. Their respective debut episodes even have their respective targets get back at them via Disproportionate Retribution.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: A very minor example, but when Gene volunteers himself in Louise's place for the stink-hold, Logan actually lets Louise go despite being more than capable of overpowering Gene and giving Louise a stink-hold anyway.
  • Gang of Bullies: Subverted; Logan is usually surrounded by other teen boys who look like they could be Mooks, but once the actual bullying starts, they disperse quickly, usually after expressing their disinterest. Most of them seem to find Logan's feud with the 9-year-old Louise kind of weird. It's not until "Better Off Sled", where they have actual reasons to help Logan (selfish reasons, but reasons), that they get involved, and even then it's clearly not personal for them like it is for Logan.
    Logan's friend: (after Logan starts picking on Louise) Can't we just enjoy the day?
  • Good Luck Charm: In his debut appearance, Louise's bunny ears serve as this for him, as he gains a ton of luck (and a prom date) just by wearing them. It's a major part of why he doesn't want to give them back.
  • Hated by All: He's despised by so many people at school that entire legions of women's sport teams - he bullied them all - don't mind dropping everything they're doing (on short notice) if it means they can hit Logan with snowballs. Not to mention that Louise isn't the only Belcher to dislike him—Gene and Tina get along with him in Season 5 but this vanishes by his next two appearances, Linda hates him from the beginning, and Bob tolerates him to get a spot in the community garden but immediately gets rid of him when he sees how it's negatively affecting his relationship with Louise.
  • Hate Sink: Logan is petty enough to bully a 9-year-old despite being a teenager himself and is a relentless Jerkass to everyone else with no redeeming qualities. He's so thoroughly unlikeable that he makes Louise look like an angel by comparison.
  • Jerkass: He is an unpleasant person who mocks Louise, once called his mom a bitch, and has one awful attitude. In fact, he's not popular at all even among those in his high school, as his friends don't really support him, and in Season 9's "Better Off Sled" features three of the sports teams from his school all gladly joined together to gang up against him as Rudy's cousin Mandy said that they "all wanted to throw snowballs at Logan".
  • Laser-Guided Karma: He almost always gets his comeuppance at the end of whatever episode he's in. "Ear-sy Rider" and "Better Off Sled" are prime examples, as they feature victims of Logan's bullying rising up against him and delivering some payback.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: Towards Louise at least, depending on the episode. Although he's not very smart and their rivalry is primarily played for laughs, he's still an older kid in comparison to Louise and can easily threaten her due to the sheer size difference.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: In "Tell Me Dumb Thing Good". Compared to other appearances where he'll torment Louise for the hell of it, here he only helps out Cynthia in her feud with Linda because she paid him ten dollars.
  • Punny Name: Loganberries are a kind of berry, and they grow in bushes. The pun is recognized in-universe, and his mother states it wasn't intentional.
  • Teens Are Monsters: Even for the stereotypical rebellious teen, Logan has some issues.
  • Vague Age: He attends high school, making him at least 14 (at least one year older than Tina). "Late Afternoon in the Garden of Bob & Louise" confirms he would be eligible for college prep programs if not for his lack of extracurriculars, which places him between 16 to 18, and Louise's bunny ears net him a prom date in "Ear-sy Rider", suggesting he's on the upper end of that scale.
  • Would Hit a Girl: He spent an entire episode waiting for a chance to lure Louise out so he could give her a Reverse Norwegian Stinkhold.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Logan has no problems about giving a Reverse Norwegian Stinkhold to an 11-year-old and was willing to do the same to a 9-year-old until said 11-year-old protected her. In "Better Off Sled", he has no issues with attempting to pelt said 9-year-old point blank with hard, refrozen, icy snow balls. Snow balls which left nasty welts on a teenager.

    Cynthia Bush 

Cynthia Bush

Voiced by: Lindsey Stoddart

Logan's mother. Despite seeming more reasonable and more mature than her son, she's actually just as smug and callous as he is and gets into it with Linda, not unlike how Logan gets into it with Louise.


  • Evil Counterpart: She and Linda have quite a bit in common as they're both prone to being overbearing and have a much louder voice than their relatively mild-mannered and quiet husbands, however Linda is a much more pleasant, supportive and loving mother to her three kids while Cynthia seems more pushy, demanding and nagging towards her son.
  • Hate Sink: She doesn't appear to have much, if any, redeeming qualities.
  • Jerkass: She's very rude and condescending towards others despite what her well put-together appearance implies, in fact the more we see from her, the more we see that she is definitely Logan's mother.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: It's not like she was wrong to get mad when Louise had a biker gang known for committing murder threaten Logan, especially since there was no sign the One-Eyed Snakes were bluffing (not to mention Louise herself wasn't).
  • Like Parent, Like Child: Logan more than likely gets all his worst traits from his mother—specifically, they're both unpleasant and rude to others. It helps that they both have blonde hair and torment two of the Belcher family members (Louise and Linda respectively, though each of them have secondary targets in the two Belcher men—Gene and Bob respectively).
  • Mama Bear: Despite her unsavory traits, Cynthia did get pretty upset when she believed her son was being threatened by a biker gang.
  • Obnoxious Entitled Housewife: She is a snooty, affluent woman who looks down her nose at the Belchers and treats her son like a malfunctioning trophy all in contrast to the hard-working, loving, open-minded, working-class Linda.
  • Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: To Linda.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: When she first appeared, Cynthia was rather reasonable and offered to pay Louise back when Logan lied about throwing her hat away. Her anger when she appeared at the restaurant was somewhat justified since Louise had the One-Eyed Snakes threaten Logan (with no indication that they weren't going to follow through), and by the end of the episode she seemed to have reached common ground with Linda. By her next two appearances she's back to hating the Belchers, competing with Linda to prove who the better mom is and making passive-aggressive digs about the restaurant.

    Doug Wheeler 

Douglas Wheeler

Courtney Wheeler's dad, an eccentric, somewhat ambitious and pushy jingle composer who Gene initially tried to get on good terms with prior to breaking up with his daughter. While Gene and Courtney later made amends, however, Doug remained an antagonistic figure in Gene's life—whether by hindering Gene directly or trying to manipulate him into harming others.


  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Although he initially seems reasonable (if eccentric) in his debut, the end of that episode shows that he plagiarized Gene's jingle and is making money off an idea that isn't his. He just gets worse from there.
  • Good Parents: He's a fairly mediocre person, but as a parent he clearly loves and dotes on his daughter.
  • Gosh Dang It to Heck!: When Gene makes Courtney cry in "Video Killed the Gene-io Star", Doug yells "What the fudge, Gene?" Arguably justified, since the alternative would be dropping an F-bomb at a preteen.
  • Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: Is bald, but "Roller? I Hardly Know Her!" shows he had a full head of hair in his youth.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: His apprehension towards Gene and Courtney reconciling in "The Gene & Courtney Show" is justified given how their previous relationship was simply a ploy by Gene to get access to Doug's recording studio.
  • Laxative Prank: In Season 9's "Roller? I Hardly Know Her!" He conspired with Gene to try and give his friend Alex Papasian diarrhea by feeding him something with sesame, his allergy, to make him avoid roller dancing with Courtney and have Gene take his place, but thankfully Gene didn't go through with it.
  • Plagiarism in Fiction: Steals Gene's jingle and passes it off as his own, which is nasty on its own but even worse when one realizes he's making money off of it. After spending the rest of his debut episode as a decent enough guy, this is the first sign that he's not as nice as he seems.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: Depending on the episode, Doug isn't an unpleasant guy, but when it comes to certain things like producing and roller-dancing his attitude gets noticeably worse.
  • Shipper on Deck: Originally for Gene and Courtney. Bob begs to disagree.
  • Stage Mom: Acts like this sometimes towards Courtney though she seems more annoyed than negatively affected by it.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: Doug was a pretty decent guy in his first appearance, but he got pretty nasty in his later appearances.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: By "The Gene Mile", he finally shakes off his more toxic traits, and his only antagonistic role in the episode (foiling Louise's plan to ditch the mile) is born out of good intentions (he thinks his cat has run away, while really its tracking collar had been stolen to use in Louise's aforementioned plan). This sticks during his return in "Gene's Christmas Break", where he's much more supportive and helpful to both Courtney and Gene (if still a bit of a Control Freak), and it's made clear that he has a better relationship with his daughter.

"It's biologically proven that children lead to sexual intercourse, and vice versa."
Voiced by: Ken Jeong

The Belcher family's dentist. He can occasionally display a surprising level of competence, but more often than not he's just a rather insane and pathetic man.


  • Abhorrent Admirer: To Gayle originally, using "The Prince of Persuasia's" sexually harassing pick-up techniques. One involved making sure Gayle couldn't get away from him by physically cornering her in a room. Considering Gayle herself is an Abhorrent Admirer, it really shows how creepy Yap must come across as.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Despite being a creepy slob, he's still a competent dentist and he takes his job seriously, which is more than some of the other characters on the show can say.
  • Casanova Wannabe: You get the feeling that he'd do a whole lot better without his personal issues, too.
  • Chekhov's Gunman: He's briefly mentioned in a conversation at the start of "Nightmare On Ocean Avenue Street", so that the reveal of him being the candy thief isn't out of nowhere.
  • Dude, Where's My Respect?: He is by all accounts a successful and skilled dentist... but he's also a mess of a human being, which doesn't help.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Tina painted a nude of him in "Art Crawl", an entire season before his in-person debut.
    Bob: Has he been nude with you, Tina?
    Tina: I exercised some artistic license.
  • Everyone Has Standards: As obsessed as he is with women liking him, he clearly isn't so desperate he'd resort to taking advantage of Tina. Also, he still takes his job seriously, as seen in "The Kids Run Away".
  • Foil: Yap can be seen as one to Frond. They're both single, childless grown men who have semi-professional relationships to the Belchers while also being antagonistic towards them, and are pretty pathetic in general, but they still have some pretty striking contrasts to each other.
    • Frond is a guidance counselor at the Belcher kids school so they have the misfortune of seeing him everyday; Yap is the Belcher's dentist and visits aren't very frequent until the adults or kids need a check-up.
    • Frond is hated by the entire Belcher family, especially by Louise, because they know he's an uptight, incompetent douchebag who punishes them more than helps them; Yap is tolerated by the adults and the Belcher kids don't mind him, with Tina even having a crush on him, Gene could relate to him in feeling like an underdog and Louise was confident enough in Yap's abilities to call him for help when Bob was stuck to the toilet.
      • Adding to that, Frond is Hated by All with nobody (including his own mother) really liking him; Yap is at least tolerated and not outright hated by anybody.
    • Frond and Bob have a very tumultuous relationship, to the point where Bob says that they hate each other (despite Frond's shock at this); Yap and Bob initially disliked each other and Yap even forcibly took a tooth from Bob, but later seasons have improved their relationship enough to where both parties are on neutral terms.
    • Yap can be immature and unstable in most of his appearances, but he keeps that in his personal life and is perfectly capable of acting professional when working as the Belcher's dentist; Frond tries to act professional as a guidance counselor to the Wagstaff students but even at work he can still act childishly, as well as petty towards the students, parents and teachers and he acts like he knows better than everybody else when it's painfully clear he doesn't.
    • Frond is white, and Yap is Chinese-American.
    • Frond is disliked because he's an uptight, judgmental and arrogant idiot; Yap is merely unpopular not because of any particular flaw of his, as he is considered weird at best and creepy at worst.
    • While Yap makes some mistakes at work, he has shown to be good enough at his job as a dentist to where he makes steady income (even owning his own timeshare) and the Belchers never complain about his work; Frond is completely incompetent at his job, with nothing implying that he makes decent money (he still lives with his mother) because of his subpar efforts and his ridiculous programs are often the source of the Belcher kid's ire and frustration.
    • Despite his earlier antagonism, Yap is capable of being friendly with the Belchers and has even helped them at times without needing an ulterior motive; Frond is nothing but unpleasant towards the Belchers and if he's helping them out, it's purely to benefit himself.
    • Yap's relationship with the Belchers isn't the best, but he has stated that he cares about the kids and can even relate to them, whether it's gently dissuading Tina from getting too close to him or reaching an understanding with Gene after he stole his magazine and Yap was able to relate to him; Frond acts like he cares about his students but in reality doesn't give a damn about their well-being, especially not the Belcher kids (whom all despise him) and he is completely incapable of relating to them, even after Bob and Linda give him some suggestions on loosening up and it completely goes over his head.
    • Like Frond, Yap had a romantic relationship with Gayle, but in Yap's case it was just a one-off fling where both parties split up on decent terms (given how cordial they act in "The Kids Run Away"); Frond, on the other hand, had a long-term relationship with Gayle that he ruined via infidelity, and the two haven't interacted since with all signs pointing to a more hostile breakup.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Does not like the fact Gayle and later the Betas prefer Bob over him.
  • I Just Want to Be Special: A fairly bland guy, which is why he always tries obnoxious methods (Such as a shady pick-up tape or loitering at his old college frat house) to try and stand out.
  • Irony: In "Nightmare on Ocean Avenue Street", he steals the kids' candies to prevent them from developing cavities. Even though it would benefit him for them to go remove their cavities and get paid, he retorts cavities from kids are gross and because it'll take time away for him to do stuff like skiing.
  • Jerkass: Especially in his second appearance in "My Big Fat Greek Bob", where it's clear he's just getting worse and worse.
    • Took a Level in Kindness: In "The Kids Run Away" he is a lot nicer and more rational than his last two appearances.
    • He's also perfectly willing to show up and help Bob with his glued-to-the-toilet predicament in "Glued, Where's My Bob" and seems to bear little ill will to any of the Belchers. He just takes a little while to get to work because he's still trying to get attention by joking around.
  • Manchild: Only in his personal life; he's acceptably professional at work.
  • Manipulative Bastard: He's been pranking Beta House for years and making them think it was the Alphas so he would be more appreciated.
  • Master of Disguise: He uses several disguises in "Nightmare On Ocean Avenue Street" to steal kids' candy, to the point that it's not until he's caught that the kids realize it was all the work of one person. Specifically, he dresses up as a Big Red Devil, an astronaut, Jason Voorhees, and a gorilla.
  • Meaningful Name: "Yap" is slang for a person's mouth.
  • Oblivious to Love: Is entirely ignorant of Tina's obvious crush on him. Although in "The Kids Run Away" he seems aware of it and tries to discourage it by quickly telling Tina she has to go.
  • Psychopathic Manchild: Hasn't quite grown out of a frat-boy mentality, even 20 years after graduating. His many personal issues may be the cause of it.
  • Sanity Ball: On a few good days, he's not his usual psychotic self.
  • Saying Too Much: Even after getting caught in "Nightmare On Ocean Avenue Street", he would've won had he not said the kids' Halloween had been "incinerated" (hinting he took their candy to the incinerator) instead of literally anything else. This slip of the tongue instead gives the kids just enough time to retrieve their candy.
  • The Thing That Would Not Leave: To his old frat, Beta House. Bob manages to force him to leave by getting him banned from campus.
  • Third-Person Person: Under most circumstances he speaks in first person, but his catchphrase is just him yelling "Yap" repeatedly.
  • Traumatic Haircut: Seemingly shaved by the Alphas in "My Big Fat Greek Bob" as part of a prank war. He did it to himself to frame the Alphas.
  • Vanity License Plate: Has one on his yellow sports car: BRN2DRLU. note 

    Deuce of Diamonds 

Deuce of Diamonds/Prince of Persuasia

Voiced by: Rob Huebel

A scam artist who goes by multiple aliases, first introduced as the "Prince of Persuasia" in Season 2's "Dr. Yap". He's released a string of self-help programs that only a desperate idiot would fall for... which makes people like Dr. Yap and Linda easy targets.


  • Alliterative Name: All of his known aliases (Prince of Persuasia; Deuce of Diamonds; Iceman of Inkjet Repair; Closer of Close-Up Magic).
  • The Bad Guy Wins: He successfully scams Linda, Jimmy Pesto, Sylvester Stieblitz, and several other adults in "The Unnatural", making thousands by doing basically nothing. Linda and Gene are utterly clueless to the fact that he scammed them, Tina is too focused on finding caffeine to notice, Louise knew the camp was a sham but didn't seem to care, and Bob (the only one who both notices and cares) is basically told to suck it up and deal with it as the Deuce walks off scot-free.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Hasn't been seen since "The Unnatural" in Season 3, where he got away with scamming multiple parents with his fake baseball training.
  • Con Man: Pretty much his defining aspect.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: His instructional videos first appear in "Dr. Yap", an entire season before the man himself appears in "The Unnatural".
  • Freudian Excuse: A very minor (and flimsy) one, in that he needs the money he scams people out of in order to not be evicted from his apartment.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Of "Dr. Yap". He never appears in person, but Dr. Yap following his crappy advice causes a ton of problems for the Belchers (especially poor Bob).
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: If one really thinks about it. The entire reason he needs money is to pay rent, and to get money he creates scams. To spread the word about his scams he takes out ads... which likely costs him money that he could just use to pay his rent.
  • Karma Houdini: Because Bob (the only one willing to call him out on his bull) made an ill-fated deal with Linda, Bob is forced to watch the Deuce just walk away with all the money he scammed out of well-intentioned parents.
  • Know-Nothing Know-It-All: As both the Prince of Persuasia and the Deuce of Diamonds. In the case of the former, his advice is so bad that trying it would very likely get someone dumped, slapped with sexual harassment charges, or both.
  • New Job as the Plot Demands: As a scam artist, he pulls several different cons and is never shown running the same con twice. Besides the two shown on-screen, he's also mentioned to have scams related to magic and repairing inkjet printers.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: His actual name is unknown. Considering his nature as a scam artist, he very likely doesn't want his name out there.
  • Stylistic Suck: His ads are very shoddily edited to the point that anyone falling for them would have to be desperate, an idiot, or a desperate idiot. Naturally, this means Linda falls for his baseball ad even after Bob and Louise both note how fake it is.

    Chloe Barbash 

Chloe Barbash

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bb_chloe.png

A student of Wagstaff. She has long and shiny auburn hair due to her special shampoo she uses. Regular-Sized Rudy has a crush on her and she used him to learn quiz answers, earning Louise's enmity from it as a result.


  • Alpha Bitch: Besides her mistreatment of Rudy, in The Bob's Burgers Movie she calls Louise a "baby" just because Louise doesn't want to perform a playground stunt. Louise doesn't take it well, which kicks off her part of the story. She's also shown to have a small group of followers including Abby and Harley.
  • Beauty Is Bad: Beautiful hair but manipulative and cruel.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She exploits Rudy's feelings for quiz answers.
  • Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: With her little girl posse of Abby (blonde), Harley (brunette), and herself (redhead) in the movie.
  • Evil Redhead: Downplayed in that she's more unfriendly and snobby than evil, but she is nonetheless a newer enemy of Louise's who taunts her and looks down on others.
  • Foil: To both Tammy Larsen and Courtney Wheeler.
    • Chloe is an enemy of Louise's, just as Tammy is Tina's enemy. However, Chloe is a legitimate Alpha Bitch who is popular with and liked by her classmates despite being horrible whereas Tammy's popularity seems to exist in her head and what friends she does have barely tolerate her. Louise and Chloe legitimately hate each other from the start, while Tammy started off as a False Friend to Tina and it took a while for her to realize Tammy's horrid.
    • Chloe is a straightforward Alpha Bitch while Courtney is a Lovable Alpha Bitch. While Chloe is Louise's enemy, Courtney is Gene's good friend. Chloe tried to use Louise's other friend Regular-Sized Rudy to get her answers for schoolwork and doesn't really care about him. Courtney eventually befriends Gene's other compatriot, Alex Papasian.
  • Hidden Depths: A very minor one that's more "quirky" than impressive; She expresses an actual interest in an unseen boy named Kevin Ishihara. The reason she considers him such a catch? He's skilled at juggling Beanie Babies, something you'd expect a character like her to be dismissive of at best.
  • Jerkass: She has yet to show any genuine kindness towards anyone.
  • Junior Counterpart: She's basically the fourth-grade version of Tammy.
  • Non-Standard Character Design: Unlike most characters, she has a perpetual shine in her hair, which is likely done to convey how nice her hair is and keep it from being an Informed Attribute.
  • Rich Bitch: Her family is well-off enough to have their own swimming pool, and she's absolutely awful.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: Chloe calling Louise a "baby" in The Movie leads to the latter going into the sinkhole and discovering Cotton Candy Dan's remains, kicking off the kids' side of the plot.
  • Stupid Sexy Flanders: Even though Louise hates her she can't stop herself from complimenting her hair while yelling at her.
