— The Rat
|
The Rat is a minor antagonist in the SML series. He has a Dutch accent and really loves cheese. It's presumed that he got replaced by another rat.
Appearence[]
He is a white rat, with mixed orange-yellow ears, tail, hands and feet. He is also very fat.
Puppet[]
The Rat's puppet was a White Mouse Hand Puppet from Folkmanis, which can be purchased here.
History[]
He is known to love cheese.
In "Bowser Junior's Cheeseburger", he was the one stealing the cheese. Despite asking nicely, Chef Pee Pee fails to get the cheese from him. Later, the chef uses a mouse trap, but the rat grabs the cheese without it going off.
In "Luigi's Mansion Episode 6", the rat is a ghost. He finds a lot of cheese and wants to eat it, but Luigi sucks him up.
In "Bowser's Dinner Date", the rat smells the nasty cheese cooked by Chef Pee Pee.
In "Shrek's Homemade Cheesecake", Chef Pee Pee offers to let the rat take all of the cheese he wants after he quits his job for Bowser and starts working for Shrek.
In "The Grilled Cheese", the rat repeatedly takes Chef Pee Pee's grilled cheese sandwiches. Because of this, Chef Pee Pee hires the Brooklyn Guy to handle him. The rat simply bites him, so they use more mouse traps, only for the rat to take the cheese, and return the sandwich. The rat later pushes Chef Pee Pee into the traps while he was getting his sandwich. When he returns, he thanks the Brooklyn Guy for the cheese, but gets killed by the Mouse Trap board game, much to the Brooklyn Guy's amusement.
In "The Call Of Duty Blackout", the rat is paid with cheese from CharleyBrown678 to chew the wires. However this backfires as Black Yoshi holds him at gunpoint and threatens him to go to CharleyBrown678's house as revenge.
Although having no appearance, in "Bowser's House Fire!", he was presumed to flee the house with his family or that he died during the house fire.

Trivia[]
- Despite being killed in "The Grilled Cheese", the Rat reappears in "The Call Of Duty Blackout", which was uploaded after "The Grilled Cheese".
- It's possible that the rat wasn't actually killed after being hit in "The Grilled Cheese", he could have just been knocked unconscious from the hit.
- Or it was possibly a different rat.
- His favorite cheese is gouda.
- It is unknown what happened to the Rat after the events of "Bowser's House Fire!" Either he moved out with Junior, or died during the house fire, which might explain why he didn't appear in any of Logan's recent videos.
- The Rat has not made an appearance in SML since "Luigi's Mansion Episode 7" most likely because he was removed because fans found him annoying.
- His puppet was used in a Titottoter video where he was the main antagonist of "Jet's Cheesy Problem" and he was called a mouse in that video and didn't speak, meaning it was a completely different character and just uses the same puppet.
- The mouse being silent in that video may be a reference to the "Quiet as a mouse" saying.
- Ironically, mice and rats in real life do not like to eat cheese and prefer to eat dry food and nuts.
- In "Bowser Junior's Rat Problem!", Templeton the Rat was used as a replacement.
