Character Information
|
Üter Zörker, voiced by Russi Taylor, is the overweight German foreign exchange student, with odd habits such as offering his already-licked lollipops to others as a sign of friendship, and eating marzipan candies fortified with iodine.
Hobbies
He is a player on the Kwik-E-Mart Gougers Peewee Hockey League Team.
Disappearance
He was left behind on the American Civil War field trip. Although a joke was made of Üter's disappearance in a later episode, with his parents asking Skinner where their missing son was, he has since reappeared, although in 24 Minutes he is seen stuck in a cobweb in the school airvents. He is also eaten in another episode.
Other Versions
In the German version of the show Üter is an exchange student from Switzerland and his name is changed in "Uter".
Family
He has two parents and his uncle is a proud owner of a bubblegum-factory in Düsseldorf (respectively Basel in the German version).
Name
Contrary to the common English people that Üter is a Swiss name, it is probably a misconstruction of the common German name Günther.
Model for Character
He most likely based on Augustus Gloop, the gluttonous German boy from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
