* CrazyPrepared: Her purse comes equipped with a crossbow, fake hymens, and surgical gear. After Steve gets his chest slashed open by Valik, Jeannie immediately has the wound sewn up, bandaged, and disinfected in the space of a minute before casually telling Steve "Don't go into shock today's not about you."

* CriminalAmnesiac: subverted, Roger not a saint, far from it, but he still criminally less insane than the puppet persona (Especially since he has no memory of whats happening while as the puppet.

The only possible exception to this is Rogu, who wears a Ricky Spanish costume while saving Roger/Jeannie Gold, but even then he still slices open Ricky!Stan's "throat" with a knife.]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ForestWhitaker
An enigmatic detective character who’s often slow to react.
----
* AchillesHeel: If it weren't for the fact he's ''extremely'' slow on the uptake, he would be an extremely competent detective.
%%* BaldOfAwesome
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}:
--> '''Turlington:''' Enjoying your coffee, Smith?
--> '''Stan:''' I'm not drinking coffee.
--> '''Turlington:''' I'm just testing. See, if you were a liar, you might say you were enjoying your coffee. Maybe even take a drink from an imaginary cup.
--> '''Stan:''' ... Who are you, and why do you freak me out?
* TheDreaded: Any time he shows up, the Smiths have to work hard to keep him from ever finding out the illegal things they're pulling out in the episode.
%%* InkSuitActor
%%* InspectorJavert
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Heinrich Brown from "Rubberneckers".

!!Sergei Kruglov
Stan's communist neighbor.
----
* ArchNemesis: To Stan.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: When Sergei moves in, he at first seems to have accepted the boys of capitalism. But those were all bullshit stories to gain Stan's trust and convert Steve to communism.

!!Stelio Kontos
A Greek bully who made Stan's life miserable.
----
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Despite Stan being a trained CIA agent, Stelio is shown to be physically stronger than him.
* BarbaricBully: Takes it to extreme measures. He mops the floor with Stan.

* TheBully: He was Stan's in High School. And in a later episode, Steve's.
* HiddenDepths: Shown to be a skilled pianist in "Love, American Dad Style."
* KarmaHoudini: Never got his comeuppance for bullying Stan. He recently added Steve to his list in an off-screen moment.
** To be fair, he ended up working at Klinko's, whereas Stan works for the CIA, which is probably meant to evoke ServiceSectorStereotypes.
* SchoolyardBullyAllGrownUp: He's still someone Stan fears even into adulthood.
* ThemeMusicPowerUp: ''[[CrowningMusicOfAwesome Stelio... Stelio KON-TOS!]]'' ''[[EarWorm Stelio... Stelio KON-TOS!]]''
