CHARACTER PROFILES

 

Eugene Horowitz

Age: 9

Address: Somewhere in the neighborhood.

Pets: Eugene is not that good with anything, especially animals. He was once pecked down by a gang of chickens, animals don't like him. He had a goldfish named Henry but Arnold killed him with a yo-yo on accident. After that, he adopted a fish named Angel at the City Aquariam but the fish was eaten by a shark. Eugene doesn't know that though. I'd hate to see what would happen when he tries to go see it.

Occupation: Student. Eugene hasn't had a job, although I can't imagine what would happen if he did. Guarrenteed that on the first day a crate lands on him or something.

Fun Facts: He can make a runny nose trail in the shape of the Mona Lisa. Yup, that some class right there. Eugene is considered to be a jinx by everyone in the neighborhood, although most of the bad things that happen to Eugene are caused when Arnold is around. Coincidence? Eh, maybe.

Friends: Eugene is friends with Arnold, of course. As I've said before, not many people aren't friends with Arnold. The show's called 'Hey Arnold!' so you'd think that anyone else in the show would be associated with Arnold. Other than that, he has his circle of geeks: Sheena, Brainy, Curly, etc.

Crushes: He may have a crush on Sheena but he didn't seem to happy in "Married" when he found out he would marry her when he grew up. It could be anxiety, or it could be an act like Helga's obsession with Arnold. Whatever it is, it needs resolvement. Is that a word? 'Resolvement.'

Overall: Eugene is defiantly the geek and the bad luck magnet of Arnold's class. The kid gets into an accident in almost every episode, it's kind of like Kenny of 'South Park'. If you don't know who Kenny is, you're a fool. The amazing thing is that whenever he gets into an accident, he doesn't want anyone to help and just says 'I'm okay.' I'd think that if I were in his shoes, I'd want some help. I'm not gonna crawl with two broken legs out of a sewer and sprawl on the ground helplessly and just tell everyone 'I'm okay.' I'd be like 'Call an ambulance! Now!'
