Early Life[]
Little is known about Squint's past, but he was saved from an unknown fate by a pirating seafaring ape known as Captain Gutt, who enlisted him into his crew aboard an iceberg that was fashioned into a ship.
Ice Age: Continental Drift[]
One day, the ship managed to catch a floating slab of ice with four mammals on it. Squint was quick to desire an attack on them as he watched from the ship's side, but Shira, the ship's first mate, shoved him aside, stating instead that they must wait for Captain Gutt's orders.
Following Shira's separation and return to the crew, Captain Gutt elected Squint as his new first mate. When what looked to be Manny appeared on a hill, Squint attacked, only to discover it was a decoy.
After Gutt lost his ship, Squint watched alongside the rest of the crew as the enraged ape tore apart a crack in the ice to make a new one. Upon Gutt's order, the crew got on board the new ship. Squint was among the few crew mates who showed amusement when Gutt threatened Shira for her betrayal.
During the final confrontation between Gutt's crew and the Sub-Zero Heroes, Shira attempts to free Ellie from her bindings but Squint stopped her. Shira proceeds to mock the rabbit saying his nose is cute when he's angry. Growing infuriated, Squint tries to attack Shira but is stomped on by Ellie.
