Personality[]
Deebo is a sociopathic bully and thug. He is a felon who is prone to crime and violence. To survive, he takes whatever he wants, whenever he wants. He uses intimidation and fear to manipulate and take advantage of the people around him, thanks in large part to his towering size and strength. He is also very violent and will become physical when angry or frustrated at the smallest offenses. He is also a woman-beater, and picks on people smaller than him for his own amusement.
History[]
Friday[]
Deebo was first mentioned when Smokey tells him about what he did to Red. In a flashback scene, while gambling, he was confronted by Red, telling him he wanted his bike back, saying they could share it and it would be both theirs and Deebo starts to act like he agrees about this, pretending to get the bike, but then he knocks out Red off his feet and yells that's his bike.
Later, Craig and Smokey hide their valuables after they spot Deebo coming and soon afterwards Deebo comes to ask them if they got something (money or jewelry) and checks one of their pockets. After seeing Stanley leaving his house however, he tells Smokey to come breakthrough Stanley's house with him. Smokey declines this and Deebo yells at him in order for him to agree to come with him, and he goes anyway. Soon enough, they get out the house while Stanley was back, and Smokey tells Craig about the $200 dollars they both got, but Deebo says he's the one that got "about $200 dollars" and leaves off with the money.
When Red stop by in a conversation with Craig and Smokey, Smokey spots him coming by once again and thanks Red for the bike and Deebo tells him what he's got for him. Red replies nothing and Deebo tells him he got something after he spotted his chain and snatches his chain off his neck and leaves with it, making Red angry about his chain getting stolen.
It is revealed that Deebo and Craig are mild acquaintances and had shown concern for him with the rest of the neighbors when he and Smokey turn up missing after a drive-by shootout orchestrated by Big Worm, whom was after Smokey due to a late payment.
Later, Smokey sneaks into Deebo's bedroom to get the money out of his pocket to pay Big Worm while Deebo is asleep, but Ezel manages to come running in with him, and they both run out after Deebo wakes up. Debbie later confronts him for beating up her sister, Felisha, thinking that she went through his pants pocket while he was asleep. His rivalry with Craig begins when he finally confronts Deebo when he slaps Debbie and the way he treated both Debbie and Felisha and beats him in a one-on-one fist fight, leaving him unconscious after hitting him with a brick, and then giving him a kick and punch to the face. Everyone else takes back their stuff, now that they're no longer afraid of him, while he's dazed out.
