Interactions[]
Granny Cuyler[]
Galvin fell in love with his mother Granny after greeting and meeting her, as he claims that she is a vision in lavender, due to her full-body port-wine stain, and engages to her for marriage later on, since she is lonely and is never greeted in Ballmart, and starts to improve her life such as making her drink chocolate-flavored nutritional supplement shakes from bottles, that have calcium, which Galvin makes her go on dates and a picnic with him, and to see a eye doctor and getting a better pair of glasses to see right, putting a wig to cover her head, and they start jogging together.
Galvin takes his mother Granny to Murphy, Carolina to find a Ballmart, where they enter to greet people before being kicked out. Granny was absolutely happy to be with her son Galvin since there was nurturing support, love, food, resources, and also nobody hits anybody, when asked by his Nephew Early.
When Granny got injured from flying out from the truck-boat-truck, after grabbing an anchor to tie it up to a tree to stop it, Galvin was shown to be concern over Granny's injury, who was also then send to the hospital.
Early Cuyler[]
Early has a personally dislike to His Uncle Galvin, due to his jealousy of Granny marrying her and taking her away, due to Granny being his mother and other personal issues such as opening a can of peaches with light syrup for him and his own personal stress ball. Although, Galvin was originally nice to him, until he stuck into his RV to poison him and chased his RV with his truck-boat-truck to pull over because of Granny. Galvin also write on a notepad for Early, for custody of his housekeeper, chef, whipping post, his crying shoulder, punching bag, and stress ball, making him madder than hell.
Galvin previously never knew anything about him until Granny mentioned him, and he thought that Granny mentioned it as a movie about a family who died in a plane crash in the Andes Mountains, but the names were changed to pay since they couldn't get all of the rights to it.
Early wanted to start poisoning Galvin with a morning smoothie, that he made when the lights were turned off in the RV and pours in his coffee maker to a empty milk gallon, which he claimed to be blueberry flavored, which was actually brake fluid from the brakes of his truck-boat-truck, but fails as Galvin caught him, which leads Early drinking it, leading him to be hospitalized.
At the end of the episode, when Early and Granny squeeze each of other like stress balls, Galvin didn't like how Early squeezed Granny, even know she stills needs her baby boy, Galvin then asks if what he would do if squeezed Early, Rusty then joins them and Galvin watches, as much of his display, he walks out of the room, telling them that he is gonna wait out of the hospital to the RV.
Sheriff[]
Sheriff almost arrested Galvin for kidnapping Granny, but Galvin didn't actually do that, then he claims that he did it in his own heart, yet Sheriff mistook it and keep brutally beating him up with his baton.
Leroy[]
Leroy didn't really like Galvin since he was greeting people at Ballmart without permission since he is the official greeter at Ballmart and tells that Granny is on the DNG list, since she doesn't get greeted or buy nothing in Ballmart. He also doesn't like Galvin during a mockery of his own greetings. He then claims it to be a fine "how do you do", but yet Leroy claims that he is personally trained to deliver it.
Bobby[]
Along with Leroy, he doesn't like Galvin greeting people at Ballmart without permission, he also tells him many times to stop greeting people in Ballmart. Galvin also thought Bobby and Leroy not greeting Granny in Ballmart was a crime to him.
