Bobby Pellitt

Bobby Pellett is a secondary villain in the 2011 film Horrible Bosses. He is portrayed by Colin Farrell.

Bobby's father Jack is the manager of Pellett Chemicals, where Kurt, one of the protagonists, works. Jack is a fair and kind boss, but his son is a hedonistic slacker. After Jack dies suddenly, Bobby takes over the company and deliberately drives it into the ground for personal gain. He exploits the company for money, intends to fire employees for unlawful reasons (such as being overweight or handicapped), and makes decisions that put the lives of thousands of foreigners at risk.

While Kurt and his two friends Dale and Nick case Bobby's house in preparation to murder him and the rest of their bosses, they discover that he has a large stash of cocaine and decide to come back and spike it with rat poison. They also steal Bobby's cell phone and accidentally leave it in David Harken's house. Harken finds the phone and suspects Bobby of having an affair with his wife and as Nick sits outside Bobby's house preparing to murder him, Harken shows up and fatally shoots Bobby. He is later arrested for the killing.
