Biography[]
Books[]
The Turbo Toilet 2000 first appeared in the second novel Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets as the overarching antagonist, where he was a creation of a George and Harold's latest comic after they were put into detention for messing up the Invention Convention. The Turbo Toilet 2000 and his army of toilets come to life after the boys accidentally use one of Melvin Sneedly's inventions, the PATSY 2000 (that can turn any picture into a living object), and the toilets start to threaten the students and teachers.
Having no choice, the boys are forced to turn to their principal Mr. Krupp, who changes into Captain Underpants after one of the teachers snapped her fingers at the toilets. With the help from George and Harold, Captain Underpants managed to formulate a plan to successfully destroy the talking toilets by feeding them disgusting chipped beef, causing all the toilets to die.
Unfortunately, this only made the Turbo Toilet 2000 so furious, that he defeated Underpants and swallowed him whole, much to George and Harold's distraught. However, the boys produce a giant robot known as the Robo-Plunger, who defeats the Turbo Toilet 2000, presumably suffocating him and saving Underpants, who emerged from the deceased Turbo Toilet 2000's mouth. The Robo Plunger then fixes the school before flying away to Uranus on the boys' command, taking the deceased Turbo Toilet 2000 and his Talking Toilets with it.
In both Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants and Captain Underpants and the Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy - Part 2: The Revenge of the Ridiculous Robo Boogers, the Turbo Toilet 2000's corpse along the corpses of his deceased Talking Toilets can be seen in a newspaper and when a spaceship discovers them.
The Turbo Toilet 2000 returns in The Tyrannical Retaliation of the Turbo Toilet 2000 as the main antagonist, where he is suddenly revived when a ball kicked by the robot Harold 2000 in the fifth book arrives at Uranus, decapitating the Robo-Plunger and causing the Photo-Atomic juice to fall into the Turbo Toilet 2000's mouth.
Bent on revenge against Underpants and the boys for destroying his army, the Turbo Toilet 2000 returns to Earth by using an homemade rocket-scooter, and starts destroying all of Piqua, sending the citizens running for their lives and disturbing Melvin's experiments. Melvin insulted him for making all the noise, which anger The Turbo Toilet 2000 and goes after Melvin to kill him. Melvin finally needs Captain Underpants's help, but, he, George, Harold, Sulu the Bionic Hamster and Crackers where fighting the three Tippy Tinkletrousers in different timelines in the tenth book.
In Mr. Krupp's office, Melvin found one of Mr. Krupp's toenail’s and tosses it away in disgust. Suddenly, he remembers that Mr. Krupp is Captain Underpants and he can use it to extract the super power DNA out of the the toenail. When the Turbo Toilet 2000 found him, Melvin found the toenail and extract the super power DNA from it and giving Melvin his superpowers and becoming Big Melvin again and kills the Turbo Toilet 2000.
In the revised timeline, Mr. Krupp gets stuck in the Piqua Valley Home for The Reality Challenged, thanks to George and Harold when they create yesterday versions of themselves and being in two places at the same time which cause their teachers go crazy, causing the cops arrest them and putting Mr. Krupp in the Piqua Valley Home for The Reality Challenged. So George and Harold dress as Talking Toilets and trick the Turbo Toilet 2000 into thinking that Captain Underpants insulted him so they can free Mr. Krupp from the Piqua Valley Home for The Reality Challenged.
While the Turbo Toilet 2000 smashing room to room to find him, the boys turn Krupp into Captain Underpants to fight him. Though Underpants manage to best out the giant toilet, the latter's tears touch Underpants, turning him back into Mr. Krupp. The Turbo Toilet 2000 then grabbed Krupp and forced him to reveal the boys' current location.
On arrival, the Turbo Toilet 2000 ate Mr. Krupp and intends to do the same to Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold, but fortunately, three hamster pterosaur hybrids (who would later be named Tony, Orlando, and Dawn) attacked the Turbo Toilet 2000, lifted him over half a mile into the air and let him to fell to his imminent death, crashing in pieces when landing and getting destroyed once and for all.
Film[]
The Turbo Toilet 2000 serves as a major antagonist of the 2017 DreamWorks animated film based on the series. This iteration is an invention of Melvin's as opposed to being a comic book character. It first appears during the school assembly, where Melvin introduces it as his latest invention. However, chaos ensues when George and Harold sabotage the Turbo Toilet 2000 by reprogramming it to shoot out toilet papers. However, Melvin knew of George and Harold's involvement, having set up a recording device, and turns over George and Harold to Mr. Krupp, who angrily puts them in separate classes for the rest of the school year as punishment for their pranks.
When Professor Poopypants becomes the new science teacher, he finds himself as the ridicule of the entire school because of his silly name but notices that Melvin's brain is incapable of having fun. Deciding to recruit Melvin to his cause, Poopypants uses his machinery to enlarge the Turbo Toilet 2000 as part of his plan to get rid of laughter due to the fact that people have made fun of his name for years.
Using the school cafeteria's rotten leftovers as fuel for the robot and equipping it with a ray gun that rids children of humor, Poopypants directs the Turbo Toilet 2000 to take over Jerome Horwitz. After disposing of Captain Underpants by having the Turbo Toilet 2000 to swallow him whole, Poopypants uses the Turbo Toilet 2000 to turn George and Harold into zombies. With all of Jerome Horwitz's students under his control, Poopypants announces his plans to conquer the rest of the world followed by the rest of the universe. However, in the midst of his victory, he mentions Uranus (the very start of George and Harold's friendship), restoring George and Harold's sense of humor and causing the Turbo Toilet 2000's computer to crash. With that in mind, the Turbo Toilet 2000 shuts down, freeing all the citizens from Poopypants' control, and allowing Underpants to escape after gaining superpowers from the leftovers in order to defeat Poopypants for good.
Despite being defeated, the Turbo Toilet 2000 enacts one final act of evil- when its body is being disposed of, the clean-up crew fails to be careful and drops the toilet off in such a way that the mutating contents of its toilet bowl spill over a large collection of toilets, which turn into the Talking Toilets and (a few seconds later) proceed to ravage the town. Fortunately, Captain Underpants comes by to the rescue as he is last seen fighting off the mutated toilets (with the help from George and Harold).
Trivia[]
- The Turbo Toilet 2000 is one of the few villains in the Captain Underpants series that Captain Underpants was not able to defeat. When they first met in the second book, the Turbo Toilet beat him up and flushed him into himself, so George and Harold had to create the Robo-Plunger to kill him. When Captain Underpants received his powers and encountered him the second time in the eleventh novel, he was able to take him on with ease but the Turbo Toilet's tears transformed him back into Mr. Krupp and was flushed into himself again.
- In an alternate universe where good and evil are swapped (home of Captain Blunderpants), the Turbo Toilet 2000 is a nice crossing guard. However, Melvin Sneedly is dumb and does not invent, so it is unknown how the Turbo Toilet 2000 came into existence there.
- In The Terrifying Re-Turn of Tippy Tinkletrousers, Tinkletrousers travels back in time and causing Mr. Krupp to lose his job as school principal. As a result, he was never turned into Captain Underpants and Dr. Diaper was consumed by the Talking Toilets (and possibly the Turbo Toilet 2000 himself) subsequent to his assault on the city and destruction of the moon. Before the Evil Zombie Nerds murdered the Talking Toilets, it is probable that the Turbo Toilet 2000 and his troops devoured a significant number of individuals, given the abundance of decomposing toilets strewn across the devastated world.
