Biography
Üter Zörker, voiced by Russi Taylor, is the overweight Germany|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. 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. In the German version of the show Üter is an exchange student from Switzerland. His uncle is a proud owner of a bubblegum-factory in Düsseldorf (respectively Basel in the German version). Contrary to the common English people that Üter is a Swiss name, it is probably a misconstruction of the common German name Günther. He most likely based on Augustus Gloop, the gluttonous German boy from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
