- As the leader of the Recess Gang, he has the second most power and influence in the playground and the student body in general, next to King Bob.
- He is the influential character, as he brings out the good out several of his enemies, including Randall Weems despite how much he gets him and the gang into trouble. He even challenges King Bob's tyrannical rule on the playground and reminds him that every student are in recess for fun and friendship, not to be bullied or bossed around.
