Camp Lakebottom | Squirt (voiced by Darren Frost): McGee's best friend. A dimwitted simpleton in his own right, he is always cheerful, and a friend to all living things, even if they're trying to kill him. He has befriended just about every monster ever to set foot in Camp Lakebottom. While his omnibenevolence sometimes comes in handy in dealing with the monsters that constantly appear, his extreme lack of intelligence often makes him susceptible to control from several villains, the most prominent example being "Mindsuckers From the Depths" where an evil, giant leech attaches to his head and mind-controls him. In "Late Afternoon of the Living Gitch" it's revealed he has worn the same pair of underwear all his life. | 20231101.simple_841762_5 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp%20Lakebottom |
