| − | He played a character that threatened to steal all of the Holiday cheer of the Winter Holidays in the ''[[Krusty's Kristmas on Ice]]'' show. When a fight broke out between the basketball team and the show skaters (because the preparations for the upcoming game were ruining the show) [[Homer]] took matters to his own hands and fought the Grumple, demanding him to return the Holiday cheer. On [[Christmas]] Day, when [[Gil]] had all of his stuff stacked in the living room of the Simpsons House, Homer commented that this was a problem. [[Marge]] then commented that Homer had a bigger problem outside and pointed at the window. The Grumple was standing outside the house, holding a knife and proclaiming "Grumpily Grumpily Groo! Your blood will make my stew!" Homer suspected it was the same Grumple from the Ice Show. Sometime later in the year, while Gil was still mooching off of the Simpsons, Homer was at [[Moe's Tavern]] and the Grumple attempted to attack again with a broken pool stick. Homer hit him with a beer bottle, knocking him unconscious and some sort of green liquid began oozing out of the Grumple's eye, suggesting that it was not a human in a costume, but some sort of strange creature.

The Grumple proclaims "Grumpily Grumpily Groo! We would like to spend Christmas with you!" having put his feud with Homer aside as the humans and Grumples began singing Christmas Carols.<ref>"[[Kill Gil, Volumes I & II]]"</ref>
