Personality
In "Crawl Space", Al rarely speaks and seems absent-minded. Gloria often speaks on his behalf and he follows her orders.
In "It Snakes a Village", he is voiced by Sam Seder and has a slightly grumpy attitude towards Gloria being startled by loud noises as he has a balloon fetish where he likes to watch women inflate balloons and pop them by sitting on them. Bob counteracts this by giving Gloria ear guards.
