Benedict Wigglestein Uno Sr, also known as Grandfather is the overarching antagonist of the Cartoon Network series Codename: Kids Next Door, serving as the main antagonist of its 2006 animated feature film Operation Z.E.R.O.
He is the tyrannical evil that previously ruled the world among the kids and is the main reason why KND was created in the first place. Years after his defeat, Grandfather is restored back to power thanks to the efforts of Father, leading him to resume his plans to conquer the world and enslave everyone so adults and children can make tapioca pudding for him.
He was voiced by Neil Ross, who also voiced the Cyclops in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and CatNap in Poppy Playtime.
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- In the past, he was previously known as the dictator of Earth, having the kids all around the world work for his tapioca factories for an unknown amount of years, including his own children.
- It was said by young Monty that him and his brother have been slaved away and making tapioca for 1100 days (about 3 whole years) straight.
- He was the main cause of Benedict turning into Father in the first place, due to him being neglectful and him admiring the evil empire that his father built, which indirectly led to the corruption of Sector Z into the Delightful Children From Down The Lane.
- When he was recommissioned by his son Benedict, he scolded him for not being able to defeat the KND, only casually thanking him before ordering him to get out of his sight.
- He betrayed all of the adults in the reunion by turning them into citi-zombies, with the process being shown that they're in pain as they scream each time they're turned.
- Proceeded to guide his army towards all of the Sectors of the KND, eventually turning every kid and most likely almost everyone on the planet save for Numbuh One and Sector Z into citi-zombies.
- He plans to destroy the Book of KND to ensure that no other kids could discover it and gain the hope to rebel against Grandfather again.
- When Benedict was claiming that he was more evil than Monty, he used his laser eyes to transform him back into father in order to shut him up.
- He tried to turn his son Monty into another zombie when he refused to do as he said.
- Unlike many villains of the series, including the main antagonist Father, he shows no incompetence while working on his goals at any point.
- Although his goal of having infinite tapioca appears silly at first, he resorts to having kids be enslaved or be brainwashed to do so.
- While his decommissioned state is shown to be rather incompetent and seemingly kind, this is only because his memories of being evil were removed, making his eventual defeat by being decommissioned again a forced redemption.
- Overall, he's considered to be the biggest threat that the KND has ever faced, having been temporarily successful two times in conquering the world and the closest to destroying the KND once and for all.
What Prevents Him from Being Pure Evil?[]
- Although he is still heinous enough, Grandfather does have a few comedic moments that do not take him as seriously, such as his weird love for tapioca pudding and his defeat has him say to Monty that he's out of his will. His idea of having people make tapioca as part of his ultimate goal in addition to not being too odious on paper, also adds to the comedic effect as well as the joke to him literally calling himself “pure” evil.
- He appears to love, or at least respect, his older son Monty despite the fact that he was responsible for depowering Grandfather. When confronting Monty again, he even said it was good to see him again and gave Monty the chance to get the book for him instead of immediately turning him into a Senior Citi-Zombie, only doing so when he refused to comply. In his defeat, even though he says that he's out of his will, it can be inferred that it was a bluff and he was still on his will regardless of Monty defeating him.
