Derf

Derf is a minor character in Fred: The Movie and Fred 2: Night of The Living Fred. He is usually found near bus stops and usually gives advice to Fred. He acts as a foil to Fred, Fred being hyperactive with a high pitched voice and Derf being calm, monotone, and with a low pitched voice. This is reflected in that his name is Fred backwards. He makes another appearance in Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred.

Physical Appearance
Derf physically resembles Fred. He has shoulder-length brown hair and brown eyes. He dresses in a heavy metal style, typically wearing a leather jacket and dark clothing.

History
Derf first appears in Fred: The Movie, where he finds himself on the same public bus as Fred. It is unknown whether Derf is a real person or a hallucination, as his actions only directly affect Fred. He is also played by Lucas Cruikshank as Fred is, giving further credence to the idea that he is a hallucination.

In Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred, he appears while Fred is gathering cross-like objects to confront Mr. Devlin. They make small talk, with Derf saying he's been chilling for the most part. He declines Fred's offer to be a part of his vampire hunting scheme and commenting on his logic. Derf advises Fred to start moving after the latter had just taken a street sign and a cop car was approaching.

Personality
As his antithesis, Derf's personality is an inversion of Fred's as someone mysterious, cool, and aloof. He is more calm and easygoing, rarely getting too emotional. He is also observant and logical, knowing that Judy wasn't really Fred's girlfriend like he had claimed and questioning Fred on the reasoning for his more outlandish plans. He has a dry sense of humor.

He uses more relevant slang, which sometimes confuses Fred.

_______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________
 * Fred: Uh-oh... supposed to be on the number 7 bus.
 * Derf: This is the number 6 bus.
 * (Fred turns around, to find someone next to him)
 * Derf: This is the number 6 bus.
 * Fred: I know, but if Kevin knew all the bus routes and where they were going and if I got on the right bus, he would know where I was actually going. So by getting on the wrong bus, he would never know I was actually going to Judy's house.
 * Derf: Dude. Please, chill out.
 * Fred: Sorry. I'm just really excited. I'm Fred. Fred Figglehorn.
 * Derf: Derf. (the two fist bump, Fred imitates explosion sounds) Dude. Don't. That's lame.
 * Fred: Oh... Oh, right. I knew that.
 * Derf: So, who's Judy? Does she have a sister or something?
 * Fred: She's my uh... girlfriend.
 * Derf: No, she's not.
 * Fred: What?
 * Derf: Judy is not your girlfriend.
 * Fred: You're right. How did you know?
 * Derf: (points to his eyes) Lie detectors.
 * Fred: Cool. It's just, Judy's such a smoking hot babe. Every time I see her, I just tingle!
 * Derf: She make's you pee?
 * Fred: I said tingle, not tinkle.
 * Derf: Dude, take a joke.
 * Fred: I guess I'm a little weird.
 * Derf: Everybody's weird, man. All of us.
 * Fred: What's that supposed to mean?
 * Derf: Don't think about it too much. If it means something to you, process it.
 * Fred: Wow! You're like a god, Derf!
 * Derf: I know...
 * Fred: I wish I could be that cool around Judy. She's the most hacking awesome girl ever.
 * (at a bus stop for the #7 bus)
 * Derf: (sees Fred shoving a mouthful of sardines) What is that?
 * Fred: Derf! How did you get here?
 * Derf: Dude, my question needs to be answered first.
 * Fred: Sardines.
 * Derf: Lunch fail, man.
 * Fred: No, I don't actually like them but when I packed my food, I forgot to pack a can opener, and this is the only can that had a handy little opener on it, and I've been walking all over, so I'm really tired and I just got so hungry!
 * Derf: You've got to chill out, man.
 * Fred: I'm going to bed. Will you wake me when the bus comes?
 * Derf: Maybe. But maybe not.
 * (in an imagination, the #7 bus shows up, Derf wakes him)
 * Derf: Bus, man.
 * Fred: Thanks Derf. You're like the best friend I've ever had.
 * Derf: (responds by holding up fist bump)
 * Fred: (initially makes an explosion sound, but remembers what he said about it earlier) Just kidding, obviously. I'm doing it! Wish me luck! I'm going to Judy's house.
 * (Derf waves goodbye)
 * Derf (after Fred accepts Judy to sing together) Oh yeah, dude. Rock on!

Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred

 * Derf: What are you doing?
 * Fred: Derf! What are you doing here?
 * Derf: There's a question already on the table.
 * Fred: I'm using this cross against a vampire. Do you want to help?
 * Derf: No.
 * Fred: Okay. So how've you been, Derf?
 * Derf: You know, I've been pretty chilled.
 * Fred: Is that good?
 * Derf: It's tight.
 * Fred: Is that good?
 * Derf: On point.
 * Fred: Is that good?
 * Derf: It's off the chain, Fred.
 * Fred: Derf! Just tell me! Are you okay?
 * Derf: Yeah.
 * Fred: Okay.
 * Derf: You know that's not a real cross, right?
 * Fred: I know, but it'll do, I think.
 * Derf: How do you know? Are you a vampire?
 * Fred: No. I've been reading about them online.
 * Derf: No one's ever learned how to kill a vampire from the Internet.
 * Fred: Well, it looks like I'll be the first, then.
 * Derf: You should probably go.
 * Fred: Yeah. I've got to stop this vampire.
 * Derf: And there's a cop car. It's illegal to steal signs, Fred.
