Jeffrey Todd Ridgway, Jr., aka Psycho Brother (born January 22, 1989) is the deuteragonist/secondary antagonist of McJuggerNuggets' YouTube series, The Psycho Series.

He was portrayed by Jeffrey Ridgway Jr.

Biography[]

In the earlier Psycho videos, Jeffrey is commonly the one to insitgate the events of the video, such as pestering Jesse until he freaks out, or telling Psycho Dad of something that Jesse has done but wasn't supposed to, leading to him destroying one of Jesse's possessions in a fit of rage. Jeffrey was also usually the one to film the older videos.

Jeffrey was raised doing many types of sports, which he was pushed to do by his father. Though at times he shows resentment for this, later on he describes that though he had a tough childhood, that it taught him a lot of good things. Jeffrey got a college degree in accounting, which, he states, is not what he really wanted to do. He actually wanted to go into film, but figured his father would respect his degree and willingness to get a conventional job. Clearly, his assumption proves correct, as Jeff Sr. never seems to bother Jeffrey regarding his job. In fact, Jeff often praises his son for how hard he works and thinks things through.

In the first Psycho video, Psycho Dad Destroys Xbox, Jeffrey records Jesse playing his Xbox on their father's television, despite not being allowed to do so. When Psycho Dad returns home, he angrily pulls the Xbox from his TV and throws it in the fireplace and then in the driveway after Jesse retrieves it, breaking it. Jeffrey laughs at his brother's freaking out and picking up the damaged pieces of the Xbox.

After the first psycho video gets uploaded, Jesse uses that as ammo against his brother. He begins threatening Jeffrey, saying that he will tell his father about the upload. Fed up with his brother’s actions, Jeffrey looks for an opportunity for revenge. When Jesse is about to turn 21, he asks Jeffrey to film him and his friends in a skit about sperm on his 21st birthday. Jeffrey uses Jesse’s camera to film for him, but he ends up smashing it in a fit of rage toward the end of the skit, fulfilling his vengeful desires.

In Psycho Dad Axes Laptop, Jesse borrows Jeffrey’s laptop to try to get revenge by showing their father that the original video was uploaded to YouTube. Jesse shows Psycho Dad the video while he is outside splitting wood with an axe. Psycho Dad takes the laptop and places it on a large log, then takes a swing at it, destroying it instantly. Psycho Dad then forces Jesse to show Jeffrey the destroyed laptop as he knew Jesse only told him to get back at his brother, in which the angered Jeffrey chases his brother out the house and down their driveway as their father flims them.

Over the course of the rest of the series, Jeffrey and his brother get into constant prank wars. Their Uncle Larry gets involved with the pranks as well, partially because Jesse manipulated him into it, and partially because his property becomes collateral damage in Jeffrey’s attempts to torment his brother. Thus, Larry gets revenge on Jeffrey several times. Jeffrey does things like tying Jesse inside Larry’s trailer, stealing it and driving it to his parents’ house, painting his brother’s car pink, paint balling Jesse’s tv, smoking his brother’s room out when he is streaming, and hiding his brother’s YouTube play button several times.

The prank war comes to a climax in Psycho Brother Stomps Glasses, where Jeffrey traps his brother in a net, suspends him in the air, and prods him with a stick. He then mocks his brother after lowering him down, slaps his brother’s glasses off his face, and stomps on them. The video ends with Jesse starting a physical fight with his brother and Jesse’s friend taking over the fight to defend him. Jesse then smashes a beer bottle over Jeffrey’s head and knocks him out. Jesse locks him in a dog cage until he is sure Jeffrey won’t do anything.

After this event, Jeffrey develops a more relaxed personality, though he clearly still resents his brother. He has a reluctance to show an emotional response to what happens around him. Jeffrey makes an effort to help his brother deal with their father and learn how to handle his own emotions, though this does little to stop Jesse’s downward spiral caused by his own refusal to change or bend in any way to go along with his father’s rules. Eventually, in the spring, Jeffrey buys his own property, presumably near his father’s place. He gets a kit house and builds it and clears spaces on the property when he’s not at work. He ends up moving there and only comes back occasionally for a visit.

in the end, Jeffrey comes to visit his father and ends up being forced at gunpoint to film Jesse kill their dad. After this he tells Jesse that he has five minutes before he calls the cops. Jesse leaves in a panic, and this is the last we see of Jeffrey, except in a montage in the last video of the series, where we see him weeping, presumably mourning the death of his father.

Personality[]

Jeffrey is generally mischievous and sadistic, often doing everything in his power to provoke, mock and bully his younger brother. Like his father and brother, Jeffrey has a hot temper and is quick to anger if something of his is destroyed, such as his laptop or Jesse's Silver Play Button that he claimed as his. He does have a more calm side to him that shows more later in the series. At times, he uses his more laid-back side as a front in order to manipulate others. This kind of manipulation is clear in BIGBRUDDA’S BETRAYAL!, where he acts calm and like he wants to make up with his brother, but then steals the key to Jesse’s room and locks him inside. Unlike his father, Jeffrey many times threatens to “beat the shit” out of his brother, and sometimes even goes as far as to inflict physical violence when provoked. He also, on at least one occasion, touches and prods his brother to get him to freak out. This behavior leads to Jesse attacking him and beating him over the head with a beer bottle. Also like his father and brother, Jeffrey has destructive tendencies and often takes out his rage on items by breaking them. Several times, Jeffrey shows a complete lack of respect for other people's personal property. He vandalizes, destroys and steals possessions of Uncle Larry's and his father's, for example, because he is so obsessed with harassing Jesse or trying to provoke their father into punishing him. He also speaks very harshly toward his mother on one occasion to defend stealing Jesse's Xbox One.

Jeffrey is later revealed to harbor jealousy of his brother, as he wanted to be a filmmaker much like Jesse, but was forced to do many sports and extracurricular activities by his father, and eventually got a degree in accounting. Jeffrey expresses anger, even fury, at the fact that Jesse got all the credit for their family footage and got all the followers, while he, the one who filmed everything in the beginning and put the work in when it mattered, got nothing out of it.

However, he and Jesse are slowly able to make amends, with the two becoming on better terms. After this he would try to help Jesse settle the conflict with his father and would often try to calm Jesse down when Psycho Dad destroys one of his possessions. Jeffrey also seems to give up the constant desire to provoke his brother, after Jesse tells him that he has never been a big brother figure in his life. Furthermore, while Jeffrey does move out, he asks Jesse if he is okay with him doing so; further showing how much he matured since their parents' divorce. As said before, Jeffrey begins to lose the resentment he had about his childhood, saying later that it taught him a lot of good things.

Later on in the Psycho Series, Jeffrey begins to internalize his feelings and emotions, often dismissing things that he doesn't like by "putting a smile on his face" and psychologically manipulating himself to a point where things don't affect him as much. As a result, he adopts a more calm, almost callous personality and doesn't react to what happens around him. Jeffrey credits his behavior and lack of communication about his issues to the fact that "I was taught to keep my problems to myself.” He begins to advise Jesse to do the same instead of freaking out over every little thing he doesn't like. Jeffrey is on good terms with his father, because, in his own words, he knows how to handle him and actually puts forth an effort to help around the house, something that Jesse is not willing to do. This is also due to his conventional job. Jeffrey respects the fact that he lives under his father's roof, and therefore he should make an effort to follow the rules, which clearly makes a difference for him, as he and his father rarely have serious arguments. Jeffrey helps his father with the lawn business, helps out around the house, and helps split wood and take care of the yard, and as a result his father doesn't charge him rent and lets him use two rooms in the house. Jeffrey advises his brother over and over again, “Play his game. Do what he says. Things will get better for you." On the other hand, this is something that Jesse has a hard time with; he violently reacts and/or resorts to lying when his father asks him to do something as simple as taking the dogs out. Jeffrey warns Jesse that his bad behavior and disrespect will cause his father's controlling personality to escalate, which it does. When Jesse tells Jeffrey that he employed this tactic when his father was demolishing his gaming room, Jeffrey is taken aback and disturbed by this and says that you can't ignore or dismiss everything. This shows that if pushed to a certain point, Jeffrey would still take action against wrongdoing.

Jeffrey, however, shows that while he started disapproving of his father's actions, he still cared about him. He confirms this in Psycho Kid Kills Father when he disowns Jesse for not only killing their father, but forcing him to film him doing so. Jeffrey, once Jesse in steals the remaining 12,000 dollars from the safe, gives Jesse a five-minute head start; coldly telling him that he is calling the police. However, as with his father, he does make up with his brother in the follow-up comic.

Villainous Acts[]

  • He torments his brother Jesse numerous times.
    • He smashes his brother's camera in a fit of rage while filming a video on Jesse's 21st birthday. This happens after the filming takes longer than Jeffrey would have liked. This is a pre-meditated event, with Jeffrey being angry at Jesse for blackmailing him.
    • He cuts his Jesse's hair while the latter is asleep. Jeffrey mocks Jesse when he wakes up and discovers it.
    • He locks Jesse out of the house and tells him to take his clothes off and do a snow angel before he will let him back inside. This was revenge for Jesse filming Jeffrey and his girlfriend arguing.

    • He films the event when Jeff Sr. flattens Jesse's campsite, "Eagle's Landing." After the destruction, Jeffrey again makes fun of his brother when he is upset and puts the camera in his face.
    • He paintballs his brother's tent at Uncle Larry's and gets his camera lens broken by Jesse and Uncle Larry.
    • He smashes his father's trophies and blames Jesse for it as revenge for his broken lens, causing Jeff Sr. to react against Jesse.
    • He ties Uncle Larry's RV shut and steals it, driving it to the Ridgway Residence with Jesse inside.

    • He breaks a hole in Jesse’s room in the Morton building and vandalizes the outside wall with orange spray paint during the Halloween family argument. To be fair, this is a reaction to Jesse shooting fireworks at him.
    • He shoves his brother out of the Morton Building and pushes him onto the ground on two separate occasions during the Halloween argument. Both these physical fights, however, were instigated by Jesse.
    • He again steals the golden play button and refuses to give it back until Jesse shouts him out in every video and he gets 1 million subscribers. This is as revenge for Jesse ruining his Halloween party and because he claims that Jesse only has viewers because of him.
