2	Charlie meets a fellow sasquatch named Ralph. But soon discovers this new friend is bad news.
3	----
4	!!Tropes:
5	* AMillionIsAStatistic: Ralph uses the fact that there are so many humans compared to his and Charlie’s species as justification for killing them for kicks.
6	* BerserkButton: Ralph baits Panda into an arm-wrestling match by making fun of Panda's favorite ''manga''.
7	* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: Ralph has white fur, is from up north, and has a cold snow reception with Ice Bear, all heavily suggesting he's a yeti rather than a bigfoot like Charlie. He's also confirmed to be a yeti by Daniel Chong on his twitter.
8	* CallBack: Charlie is still friends with the family of snakes from "Charlie and the Snake".
9	* ChainOfPeople: The bears make a chain to save Charlie from falling off a cliff.
10	* DeadlyPrank: One of Ralph's ideas for a "prank" involves untying a rope bridge while people are still crossing.
11	* EveryoneHasStandards: Despite Charlie's distrustful and distant behavior towards humans, he proves to be unwilling to kill them even after all the times they've harassed him.
12	* GoneSwimmingClothesStolen: Ralph and Charlie do this to two people. With Charlie wearing the guy's clothes and Ralph [[FanDisservice wearing the girl's]].
13	* ItAmusedMe: Why Ralph is such a {{Jerkass}}.
14	* JerkJock: Ralph is obnoxious, acts like he's better than everyone else, a bully to everyone around him, and has huge muscles that he isn't afraid to show off. He fits this trope perfectly.
15	* JustJokingJustification: Ralph uses this as an excuse for all his {{Jerkass}} actions. Including trying to straight up murder a group of bridge-crossing forest tourists.
16	* KickTheDog: Ralph literally kicks an innocent snake, and pays dearly for it. Before that, he leaves Charlie to die with the tourists from his DeadlyPrank out of boredom just because he was "too soft".
17	* KingKongClimb: The promo image, as shown above, with Ralph as the giant and Charlie as the DamselInDistress.
18	* LackOfEmpathy: Ralph doesn't comprehend why killing people as a joke would be wrong, pointing out [[AMillionIsAStatistic there are millions of them compared to his and Charlie's endangered species]], but is also willing to leave Charlie to die with them when the latter disagrees and tries to save them.
19	* LaserGuidedKarma: At the end, Ralph kicks one of Charlie's snake friends, and gets attacked by the others as an act of justice for trying to kill some tourists and leaving Charlie to his potential death before the fade out.
20	* LiteralCliffhanger: Charlie hangs from the edge of a cliff as he holds the suspension bridge that Ralph pulled off, but Ralph refuses to help him up and leaves him to die. Charlie starts to slip and would have fallen to his death had it not been for the bears rescuing him.
21	* MisplacedWildlife: Yetis are known to be sighted in Asia rather than North America. He is implied to travel though.
22	* NotSoSimilar: Charlie and Ralph are both [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti tall, hairy, bipedal humanoids]], annoyingly fun loving, and distrustful and bigoted towards humans. But beyond that, they have nothing in common, especially in a moral sense on their view of humans.
23	* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: While Ralph does treat everyone (except for Charlie initially) like garbage, humans appear to be his favorite victims.
24	* ScaryStingingSwarm: One of Charlie's pranks to impress Ralph is throwing a beehive at a guy while he's fishing.
25	* ToxicFriendInfluence: Charlie does a lot of mean stuff in order to impress Ralph.
26	* WhatTheHellHero: When Charlie tells Ralph that his bridge prank is dangerous, Ralph [[MoralMyopia retorts by saying that throwing a beehive, which was Charlie's idea, was also dangerous]].
