| ~ Gronk's fake speech on why he is a noisy and obstreperous jerk. |
Robert James "Rob" Gronkowski, also known as Gronk, is the main antagonist of the Family Guy episode "Gronkowsbees". He is the football tight end for the New England Patriots.
He was voiced by himself.
Biography[]
When he and his family move into Quahog in a house behind the Griffin family's house, Peter and his friends are excited about a famous party lover moving into their town. Lois however warns Peter that he'll soon get sick of Gronk due to his noisy habits.
Soon after, Peter himself gets annoyed by his new neighbor's loud endless partying, especially after he threw an entire bus at him the day prior, making Peter believe it was just a football. When he goes over to Gronk's to tell him to call it a night, he asks Peter if he ever saw a nard explode. Peter thinks that a "nard" is something on the internet, but his thoughts are interrupted when Gronk uses his towel to whip Peter in the crotch, causing all the partygoers to laugh at him. Gronk then gets Peter to let his guard down by saying it was just a joke, and when Peter asks what the joke was, Gronk whips him in the crotch again, making the partygoers laugh even more. A furious Peter then decides to get rid of Gronk "just like he helped kick the British out of America", but Gronk inserts himself into the cutaway and whips Peter in the crotch a third time.
The next day, Peter and his friends come up with a way to get Gronk and his family out of their town by making Cleveland dress like a leprechaun since everyone (including Gronk) that went to the University of Arizona believes that leprechauns are real. Gronk buys it at first, but when Cleveland tries to make him move to Tallahassee in exchange for a pot of gold, Gronk realizes it's a disguise and painfully removes Cleveland's mustache. He then asks if Peter and the others are trying to get rid of him and Peter confirms it. Gronk then asks why, and Peter replies that Gronk is a pain in the ass to live next to. Gronk then explains that he was forced to portray himself as a jerk by society, but his heartfelt speech is then revealed to be fake once he punches Peter. He then proudly admits that he loves being a noisy jerk, and to top it off, he fat shames Peter and refuses to leave Quahog just so he could double down on being an asshole. Seeing that as the final straw, Peter, Quagmire, Joe, and Cleveland charge at Gronk to beat him up, but to no avail since he has a rock-solid body. Excited that they're fighting now, Gronk proceeds to effortlessly beat up Peter and his friends while eating three sub sandwiches just to taunt them.
Elsewhere, when Brian and Stewie attempt to get rid of the aggressive bees that they are keeping, the hive lands on the roof of Gronk's house and then falls on top of him just after he taunted the guys by saying they were bad at fighting. When Gronk tastes the honey that landed on him, he believes it's honey rain, but then he notices the bees and panics, revealing he has a fear of bees. The steroid-infected bees then try to attack him, prompting Gronk and his family to move out of Quahog on the spot and never return, all while the bees followed them.
It is later revealed on the news that Gronk was suspended from the Patriots when steroids from the honey he ingested caused him to fail a drug test, which was his karma for how he treated Peter and his friends. Nevertheless, Gronk gets the last laugh when he throws a second bus into the Griffin's home in an act of revenge (even though he had no proof that the Griffins were responsible), crushing the entire family and causing massive property damage.
Trivia[]
- Gronk is shown to be one of the strongest characters in Family Guy. He does not get injured at all when Peter, Quagmire, Joe, and Cleveland simultaneously attack him and he effortlessly beats them up. He is also able to effortlessly toss an entire bus as if it were a football.
