Father & Baby are two recurring minor characters that make background appearances in several episodes of Squidbillies. They first appeared in the episode "Terminus Trouble."
Description[]
Father & Baby are an unnamed father carrying a infant in a purple baby pouch, the father has a few speaking lines in some episodes, while the infant only communicates in cries in a few appearances. The infant is the son of this father, however the father is possibly married to unseen wife, and could be the mother of the infant.
Notable Appearances[]
While the two usually serve as background characters, they do have some notable episode appearances.
In "Terminus Trouble", the father and his baby are seen sitting in a seat in a baseball stadium where Early and Rusty are watching "Tool Dash", soon the father has concern for Early, and the squid looks at him and replies "what the hell you gawking at" and then Early calls him a "butt nut" and then he replies to him "you better swivel that damn face back around".
Later as Early acts angry during the "Tool Dash" game, as Early starts swearing inappropriate words in the stadium with the father and his son below the seats, the father replies "uh, excuse me, could you not say", Early then throws a coffee cup at the baby making the infant cry.
Now despite Early's actions, the father and baby continue to sit in the same seat, next to a kid dressed in baseball clothes who was eating a chili dog, but was stolen by Rusty. Its unknown if this kid is a another son of his, or nephew, as he is seen sitting next to them, and shows concern for the father's baby crying, possibly suggesting that he is the baby's brother, sibling or nephew.
In the episode "Lerm", Early and Lerm in their truck run over them, the father is seen dead covered in blood on top of the truck and the baby cries in fear, both flew away with their fates remaining unknown. A similar action of this happened in "America: Why I Love Her".
In "Velvet Messiah", when Early is posing as Jesus Christ, the father asks him to help with his problems because he can't afford to feed his own kids. Oddly he is referring to kids instead of just one child, its possible that he has more children, but are never seen.
The father and baby also appear at The VFW for rehab in the episode "Green and Sober." The father and the baby are heard listening to Early's speech in "Dewey Two-ey".
