- "He thinks he can sit it out and still take a slice. I know why they call him the Joker."
- ―Grumpy[src]
Grumpy was an accomplice of the Joker in the robbing of Gotham National Bank.
Along with Chuckles and Bozo (actually The Joker in disguise), Grumpy was one of the three thugs who took over the bank lobby, while Dopey and Happy disabled the alarm system and cracked open the safe, respectively. When Chuckles was killed by a surprise gunshot from the bank manager, both Bozo and Grumpy dove for cover. Bozo tricked Grumpy into taking the manager's last round, though the wound was not fatal.
With the lobby pacified, Grumpy made his way to the safe, shot Happy after he had opened it, and loaded the safe's cash into bags.
Realizing that both Happy and Dopey had both been killed on the Joker's orders, Grumpy believed he was next and aimed his gun at Bozo, who walked in a circle as Grumpy kept aim at him and maneuvered him into standing in just the right place; as Grumpy exclaimed that he bet the Joker told Bozo to kill him as well as soon as the cash was loaded, Bozo corrected him and said "No, no, I kill the bus driver". Grumpy, confused, demanded to know what bus driver he was talking about. He was then hit and killed by the getaway bus, being driven into the bank's lobby by the bus driver in question, who was soon killed by Bozo as well.
[edit] Behind the scenes
- Grumpy takes his name from a character in Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
