| ~ Professor Pamplemoose |
Professor Pamplemoose is a major character from the YTV animated series Sidekick.
He is the homeroom teacher and head principal of Sidekick Academy, who educates all the students on how to be sidekicks. He is a very wrathful and abusive teacher, who enjoys putting his students through grueling and painful tasks and he's also quick to give people extreme punishments for minor offenses.
Professor Pamplemoose is villainous for torturing his students by giving them assignments that endanger them to physical harm, injury, or even death. Although he enjoys making all of his students suffer, he mostly targets Trevor Troublemeyer, due to his connection with Martin, the man responsible for crippling and mutating him into the green cyborg he is today.
He is voiced by Patrick McKenna.
Biography[]
Backstory[]
Pamplemoose and Martin in college.
Back in Super College, Pamplemoose was a normal, able-bodied human being, training to someday become a superhero. He was also the best of friends with Martin Troublemeyer. However, Martin would constantly use Pamplemoose as the test subject for his various science experiments, which almost always led the the latter losing one of his limbs. The first thing he did was pour some acid on his hand, making him burn his entire arm off and have to get a robot arm as a replacement. The second thing he did was blast him in the eye with a giant laser beam, making him go blind and have to wear an eyepatch. The last thing he did was test out rocket shoes on him, which blasted off so hard, that they ripped his legs off, leading to him being bound to the hovering wheelchair he's in today. All of these disabilities ruined Pamplemoose's chances of ever becoming a superhero in the future. To make matters worse, Martin also stole Pamplemoose's college sweetheart and married her and beat him out for class valedictorian. Since this, Pamplemoose has hated Martin with a burning passion and has sworn revenge on him.
Current Life[]
Professor Pamplemoose currently works as the teacher of Sidekick Academy, where he trains students to become superhero sidekicks. Embarrassingly, one of his students is Trevor Troublemeyer, (the son of Martin and the unnamed college sweetheart he stole from him) and Trevor does not go easy on Pamplemoose, constantly doing annoying and disruptive things in his class, making his life even more miserable than it needs to be. Because of his horrid state, Professor Pamplemoose takes out his anger on, not just Trevor, but all of his students, giving them horrible every single day, which involve them going through physical harm and life-threatening challenges, just so that he can laugh at the misfortune of others for a change.
Appearance[]
Professor Pamplemoose is a creepy, wrinkled, pale green-skinned old man with a bald head of sunspots and forehead wrinkles and a crooked hunchback. He sits around in a white hover chair to move around in, as he is disabled and doesn't have any legs. He is also missing his right arm, having a prosthetic robot arm as its replacement. He also wears an eyepatch and has a scar running through it. Under his eyepatch is an empty socket, which a little mouse lives in. His one remaining eye has a wine-red pupil and bags under it.
Personality[]
Professor Pamplemoose is an angry, wrathful, hateful, and spiteful teacher, who gets a sadistic thrill from making the lives of others miserable. He enjoys giving his students assignments that endanger them to harm, injury, and even death, although his favorite method of abusing the kids is giving them detention. The reason he enjoys hurting others so much is because he's upset about his current state as a crippled man with no chances of every being a superhero and wants other people to go through at least a small dose of the same kind of misery he deals with every day of his life.
Villainous Acts[]
- In "Like Supervillain, Like Son", Professor Pamplemoose gave Trevor detention for being enthusiastic, signifying how he treats him horribly due to him being the son of Martin.
- In "A Monster Headache", Professor Pamplemoose sniffed a poisoning plant, which turned him into a giant plant monster, that wreaked havoc upon the city of Splittsboro, destroying buildings and even attempting to eat Trevor and Vana.
- In "Days of Golly", Professor Pamplemoose got mad at Trevor for sleeping in class so he pointed a giant missile launcher at him, threatening to "put him to sleep forever". Fortunately for Trevor, the bell rang and ended class, leading Pamplemoose to spare him and say he'll pick up where he left off tomorrow.
- In "Endless Summer", Pamplemoose was blasted with a stray laser during his summer vacation and out of anger, decided to give his students pop quizzes next year, exhibiting more of his habit of misplacing retribution.
- In "Identity Crisis", Pamplemoose had Eric strapped to a metal table with a laser slowly approaching him. He claimed that the laser was fake and this was just being used for a test but Pamplemoose then accidentally waved his robot hand under the laser and it broke apart, proving that he was intended to slice Eric in half so he could pass it off as a mistake later.
- In "Fart of Darkness", Pamplemoose forced Eric and Trevor to undergo a bunch of painful assignments in fighting giant robots and wrecking balls. He clearly took sadistic enjoyment out of watching Trevor, especially, getting beaten senseless by the giant robot fist.
- In "The Henchman Challenge", Professor Pamplemoose eventually resorted to cheating in The Henchman Games, although this is somewhat justified, since Master XOX and his henchmen were cheating in all the other challenges.
- In "Suit of Harms", Professor Pamplemoose invited Master XOX to come over as a guest speaker and equip all of the students with inflatable immobilizing suits to keep them trapped and in-place.
- In "Escape From Razzuma-Traz", Professor Pamplemoose invited Mrs. Razzuma to come over to the school and torture the students and also endanger their lives, by launching them into outer space, just for his own amusement.
- In "Pamplemoose and Son", Pamplemoose falsely claimed custody over Eric and became an abusive father to him.
- In "Super Frenemies", Pamplemoose gave Eric and Trevor overly extreme punishments for stealing his chocolate in class, which was sending them to the Demon Dimension, to be tortured by the Demon Teacher, which was basically the equivalent of sending them to Hell.
- In "Fortress of Maxumtude", Pamplemoose attempted to murder Eric, Trevor, and Martin by ramming them off the road, so that he could find the Fortress of Maxumtude and keep its riches all to himself.
Trivia[]
- His last name is a pun on "Pamplemousse", the French word for "Grapefruit".
