Biography[]
Checkered Ninja[]
At the beginning of the movie, he is at his new toy factory with his language interpreter Jasper, who was there to translate what his employee Mr. Chang was saying. Jasper then saw that Philip was using children for his toy factory and were in horrible conditions, he tells him that it's wrong, but Philip just shreds it off by saying that it was normal for children to work in Thailand. After a boy named Quang makes a ninja doll with his scarf, Mr. Chang starts to hit him with a stick, but Philip stops him, only for him to beat Quang to death.
After lightning strikes, the doll comes to life with the spirit of the ninja Taiko Nakamura, and follows Eppermint to Denmark, where the doll is picked up by Stewart Stardust, and given to his nephew Alex during the latter's birthday. The doll and Alex would become friends, and he helped Alex get close to being with a girl he liked named Jessica in exchange for him to help him find Philip so he could "give him his credit card", lying to Alex about his intentions to kill Philip. Alex would then call him Nakamura due to him being in the form of a checkered ninja doll.
Later in the movie, Alex and Taiko go to Philip's house, and the latter tries to kill him, but he escapes and calls the police, although they are able to get out of the house before they could get caught. Eppermint then goes back on a business trip to the factory, but at the airport, Alex sends Taiko away to Thailand so he could stop Philip, who then jumps at Eppermint with some cocaine they got from a drug dealer before they got the drug dealer arrested. Philip is then imprisoned for drug dealing.
Checkered Ninja 2[]
The movie begins with him in prison talking to his henchman Jimmy Nokhen Galm on the phone, saying that he already got the doll and burned it. As also murdering Mr. Chang, he later left prison saying that nobody will stop him. Philip would then leave the prison, with Taiko and Alex going to stop him.
Philip would then talk with Jimmy in a restaurant, where he would inform Philip that he lost the papers of the kids who worked his factory, Philip gets worried, as he wanted to kill the children to get rid of witnesses of his actions. Taiko would then go to hear them talking, with a kid grabbing him, but he hurts the child, which caused his mother to bring him to Philip and Jimmy, with Philip gets scared, since he is still traumatized of the doll that caused him to get arrested, so he decided to leave.
Philip and Jimmy would then meet at a strip club, where Jimmy would give him notes about the children and where they were, with the first one being a girl named Honey Bee. They would then find Alex that was hiding behind a desk and hearing them talking, with Philip leaving out of fear of being in danger, as he remembered Alex for the kid who had a checkered ninja and was listening to him and Jimmy at the restaurant, while Jimmy stays and interrogates Alex.
CN then follows him and tries to kill him, but he fails. Philip would then bring Alex into a trap by bringing him to a shop by convincing his former interpreter Jasper that he was going to help him stop Philip, and lock Alex and Taiko in a room and put a bomb about to explode in the other to destroy the shop, with Philip betraying Jasper and locking him in the room as well. Philip and Jimmy leave, but Alex and Jasper are saved thanks to the help of the former's half-brother Sean.
Philip would then go to the restaurant where Honey Bee was in order to kill her, with Alex and Sean following them with a bike, but after noticing them, Philip would order Jimmy's gang to go after them, but they are able to defeat them. In the restaurant, Philip tries to kill Honey Bee, but after understanding that there were many people in the restaurant to the point that many would be witnesses to his murder, Philip decides to cause a blackout and has snakes released to scare off the people in the restaurant.
Jimmy would then capture Honey Bee, but she managed to escape, so Philip went after her, but Alex defends her and fights Philip, and when he tries to attack them in a fit of rage, Alex tries to convince Philip not to, but he doesn't listen, which causes him to fall to a cage filled with snakes, killing Philip. It's then later revealed that Sean filmed Alex fighting Philip and sent it to Jessica so he thanks Alex for bringing him onto his mission, since Sean knew Jessica was onto "bad boys" and Alex fighting Philip would get him to get back at dating, but Alex refused, as he believed that he didn't need to be cool, and that he only needed to be himself.
Appearance[]
Philip is a tall and slim middle-aged man with blonde hair stylized in a topknot. He has blue eyes, a short beard and wears the company's worker uniform, who is an orange t-shirt with a small green circle on it, khaki pants and brown shoes.
Personality[]
Philip is an egotistical and evil person who is set on gaining money through child labor, and using the fact that children normally work in Thailand as an excuse for his actions. Philip also doesn't tolerate any mistakes the children make, as seen with him having a girl beaten for bringing him dirty water or when he beat a kid to death for making a doll with his scarf by accident.
He also is sadistic, as he enjoyed learning that his former employee Mr. Chang was killed and laughs and smiles multiple times while attempting to kill Alex and Honey Bee in the sequel, he also has a large amount of pride within himself, which is what caused him to be killed as he refused to listen to Alex.
Philip also appeared to have some level of PTSD after getting arrested by Taiko Nakamura, as he started having a flashback when he saw a doll similar to the one that got him to jail.
