Character Information
|
Chief Knock-A-Homer was a robot built by Homer Simpson to fight in the TV show Robot Rumble. Homer built the robot to impress Bart.
Homer was actually inside the robot, driving it and swinging the hammer, during the fights. However, because Homer included a remote control, Bart thought that he was controlling the robot. Homer later confessed to Bart that the remote wasn't doing anything except delivering electrical shocks to Homer's butt, which Homer had set up on purpose to help maintain his competetive edge.
Chief Knock-A-Homer won many fights, but eventually lost to a very high-tech robot entered by Professor Frink and his son. Homer was nearly killed in that fight, and was also "outed" as having been inside the robot all along. As it turned out, Bart was more impressed by Homer's being inside Chief Knock-A-Homer and doing all the fighting for real than he had been when he'd thought that Homer had only built the robot.
