Role in Flim

The Pebble and the Penguin

At the beginning of the film, Drake was seen spying on Hubie and Marina. He wants Marina to be his wife and have the smartest the strongest the bravest children he ever wanted! When Hubie got the pebble he cruelly tripped him. He drops Hubie into the water. After the attack Drake was with his minions on the ice and Drake wants Marina to be his mate but Marina refuses. He gives her a choice to stick with him or be banished! During Hubie and Rocko's adventure he was in his lair eating bones with the skua birds and reminded them that Hubie is a Leopard Seal meal.

That night He was seen asking Marina about the plan about mating season. Marina still says no! After Hubie got away from the killer whales, he took Marina down the stairs suddenly he heard a loud voice and it was Hubie. He thought Hubie was dead. Drake started to challenge him. Hubie was about to charge him, but Drake brutally slammed him with his arm knocking Hubie unconscious. After Hubie gets up, he fights Drake. With every blow Drake made, Hubie countered his attack knocking him down the stairs. When Marina tried to get to Hubie, Drake grabbed still intent in carrying her off against her will. Hubie then bit his leg causing Drake to scream in pain. Enraged, he attempts to finish off Hubie but proves futile with every kick Hubie threw back at him. Drake dives at Hubie but ended getting sucker-punched in the face, completely dazed. Hubie then kicked Drake off the stairs and he fell down to the chasm presumably to his death. Drake reappears lifting a boulder Marina was on in an attempt to crush Hubie, only to killed from being crushed under falling rocks in the end.
