Grimes makes his only canonical appearance in the series in "<a href="/wiki/Homer%27s_Enemy" title="Homer&#39;s Enemy">Homer's Enemy</a>" in which he is a new employee at the power plant. Throughout the episode, Grimes's professionalism is repeatedly contrasted with <a href="/wiki/Homer_Simpson" title="Homer Simpson">Homer Simpson</a>'s idiocy, gluttony, and laziness, making Grimes increasingly frustrated and angry with Homer. True to the name of the episode, Grimes eventually declares Homer his enemy after his co-worker gets him into serious trouble with his new boss Mr. Burns. After several failed attempts to expose Homer's stupidity and irresponsibility, Grimes makes one final attempt by tricking Homer into entering a nuclear power plant design contest intended for kids. After Homer is declared the winner, Grimes snaps, declaring that he can also be as lazy and moronic as Homer, and should be able to get away with it just as Homer does. As he runs amok through the plant, Grimes, declaring that he does not need safety gloves, grabs two high-voltage wires and is fatally electrocuted. As a final inadvertent insult, Homer sleeps through the funeral and amuses the assembled mourners with his insensitivity, who laugh as Grimes's coffin is lowered. Grimes has been referenced in several later episodes, first in "<a href="/wiki/Natural_Born_Kissers" title="Natural Born Kissers">Natural Born Kissers</a>", where Homer finds an old pamphlet to Grimes's funeral. Years after the episode aired, the show's producers said that Frank Grimes was meant to be a one-time experiment in having a normal, ordinary and realistic person enter the Simpsons' universe; Frank's downfall reflected the fact that a real person could not survive in this kind of world. </p><p>In "<a href="/wiki/Treehouse_of_Horror_XII" title="Treehouse of Horror XII">Treehouse of Horror XII</a>", Grimes is one of the faces on the Wailing Wall.

Gil's work history includes many unsuccessful sales jobs, a position where he committed theft and was busted by the IRS for it, another job where he lost the entire company payroll at a Las Vegas casino, and a 2009 stint when he was hired by the Springfield Police Department after he was able to free Chief Wiggum after he handcuffed himself to his desk. He always gets fired, often for just being incompetent but sometimes out of bad luck (he lost his job as Santa at Costington's when he refused to take back a Malibu Stacey doll, he gave to Lisa so that the CEO's granddaughter could have it, and Marge fires him from her Mother Hubbard's Sandwich Shop for no real reason). His way of selling is disastrous, as he is usually very unconfident, naturally bumbling, and tends to come off as needy, especially as he almost always refers to himself in the third person, as "Ol' Gil". The only time he has been fired for something illegal or on purpose was revealed in the episode "<a href="/wiki/Do_Pizza_Bots_Dream_of_Electric_Guitars" title="Do Pizza Bots Dream of Electric Guitars">Do Pizza Bots Dream of Electric Guitars</a>", being arrested (and fired) for drug trafficking cocaine.

He is friends with Homer Simpson. Kirk bears a striking resemblance to his wife, and wears glasses just like her and their son. He first appeared in the season 3 episode "<a href="/wiki/Bart%27s_Friend_Falls_in_Love" title="Bart&#39;s Friend Falls in Love">Bart's Friend Falls in Love</a>", but it would not be until season eight's "<a href="/wiki/A_Milhouse_Divided" title="A Milhouse Divided">A Milhouse Divided</a>" that Kirk was portrayed as a <a href="/wiki/Stereotype" title="Stereotype">stereotypical</a> middle-aged male loser and deadbeat dad. Much of his character revolves around his extreme <a href="/wiki/Depression_(mood)" title="Depression (mood)">emotional depression</a> after his divorce from his wife Luann. Luann got custody of Milhouse when they divorced, but Kirk has visiting rights and is often seen with Milhouse in later episodes. The Van Houtens got back together in season 17's <a href="/wiki/Milhouse_of_Sand_and_Fog" title="Milhouse of Sand and Fog">Milhouse of Sand and Fog</a> and officially remarried in the <a href="/wiki/The_Simpsons_season_19" title="The Simpsons season 19">nineteenth season</a> episode "<a href="/wiki/Little_Orphan_Millie" title="Little Orphan Millie">Little Orphan Millie</a>". In that episode it was established that Kirk is of <a href="/wiki/Dutch_people" title="Dutch people">Dutch</a> ancestry on his father's side and has a feud with the members of the family that have a <a href="/wiki/Danes" title="Danes">Danish</a> ancestry. Kirk previously served in the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Army" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Army">U.S. Army</a>, and attended Gudger College. Kirk's mother apparently is of <a href="/wiki/Greeks" title="Greeks">Greek</a> ancestry, based on the nineteenth-season episode "<a href="/wiki/Husbands_and_Knives" title="Husbands and Knives">Husbands and Knives</a>", in which Milhouse says, "But that's the money Yiayia Sophia gave me for Greek Orthodox Easter!" </p><p>According to Luann, Kirk was not a very good provider, and she had to borrow money from her sister to make ends meet and steal donated clothes from the town's church so she could have a wardrobe. When Luann demands a divorce, Kirk is all too happy to oblige. Unfortunately, he loses his middle-management job at Southern Cracker, a job given to him by Luann's father, as a result. Kirk briefly attempts a career as a singer-songwriter, recording a demo tape of an original song titled "Can I Borrow A Feeling", with mediocre results. Later, he attempts to get back together with Luann by singing the song to her. Luann does not reciprocate Kirk's feelings. </p><p>Kirk reveals in "<a href="/wiki/I_Am_Furious_(Yellow)" title="I Am Furious (Yellow)">I Am Furious (Yellow)</a>", in which he visits his son's school on career day, that he was currently employed as an assistant to the guy who puts fliers under people's windshield wipers. Kirk also had a job standing on the curb holding a sign directing people to a condo development and worked as a scarecrow protecting a soy-bean crop, which resulted in his eye being gouged by a crow. Since being fired from the cracker company, Kirk seems to be unable to maintain a steady job. He once shouted at Luann that she had to keep up the <a href="/wiki/Alimony" title="Alimony">alimony</a> payments she owed him, and he has been seen at the Springfield unemployment office, perhaps suggesting that alimony and <a href="/wiki/Unemployment_benefits" title="Unemployment benefits">unemployment benefits</a> are his only steady sources of income.

Since the season 8 episode, "<a href="/wiki/A_Milhouse_Divided" title="A Milhouse Divided">A Milhouse Divided</a>", Luann was depicted as a promiscuous single mother, who pushed her love life in the face of her ex-husband, Kirk. She first appeared in "<a href="/wiki/Homer_Defined" title="Homer Defined">Homer Defined</a>", as a concerned mother who barred Milhouse from being Bart's friend due to Bart being a bad influence.

Although Kirk found the new liberty of a single life tough, Luann uses her newfound freedom to live life in the fast lane, advising Marge to forget everything she thought she knew about her, to which Marge replied that she really did not know anything about Luann at all. Luann began dating <a href="/wiki/American_Gladiators_(1989_TV_series)" title="American Gladiators (1989 TV series)">American Gladiator</a> Pyro shortly after her divorce with Kirk for a few seasons, but was caught cheating on him with his best friend, "<a href="/wiki/American_Gladiators_(1989_TV_series)" title="American Gladiators (1989 TV series)">Gladiator Gyro</a>".

He first appears in the episode "<a href="/wiki/Whacking_Day" title="Whacking Day">Whacking Day</a>". Chalmers is strict and humorless, with a short temper and low tolerance for disorder or rule-breaking. He is also the father of <a href="#Shauna_Chalmers">Shauna Chalmers</a>. </p><p>Whenever Chalmers visits Springfield Elementary, some sort of disaster strikes. He produces extreme anxiety in <a href="/wiki/Seymour_Skinner" class="mw-redirect" title="Seymour Skinner">Principal Skinner</a>, who offers increasingly improbable excuses for the problems. As a running gag, despite his antipathy towards Skinner and his initial skepticism, Chalmers will still wind up accepting Skinner's desperate explanations. Chalmers is known for throwing open the doors to the room and bellowing "SEYMOUR!!!" or "SKINNER!!!", to which Skinner stammers "S-Superintendent Chalmers!" His catchphrase has caused some <a href="/wiki/Paranoia" title="Paranoia">paranoia</a> in Skinner (as seen in "<a href="/wiki/Lisa%27s_Date_with_Density" title="Lisa&#39;s Date with Density">Lisa's Date with Density</a>"). On a few occasions, he says Skinner's name this way when absolutely nothing has gone wrong, implying that he either pronounces Skinner's name this way by habit, or does it on purpose to scare him. In "<a href="/wiki/Homer_and_Lisa_Exchange_Cross_Words" title="Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words">Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words</a>", he even pronounces the words "skimmer" and "dinner" in a similar manner to Skinner's name, who mistakes it as Chalmers wanting his attention. </p><p>However, Chalmers does on at least two occasions show a fondness for Skinner. In "<a href="/wiki/The_Debarted" title="The Debarted">The Debarted</a>", both Skinner and Chalmers are lost in the foam of a massive explosion resulting from the mixture of <a href="/wiki/Diet_Coke_and_Mentos_eruption" class="mw-redirect" title="Diet Coke and Mentos eruption">Mentos and Diet Coke</a>, he screams Skinner's name and upon not receiving an answer, says it again in a softer manner. Skinner then replies to which Chalmers tells him in a frightened voice, "Don't ever scare me like that again." In "<a href="/wiki/How_Munched_is_That_Birdie_in_the_Window%3F" class="mw-redirect" title="How Munched is That Birdie in the Window?">How Munched is That Birdie in the Window?</a>", when <a href="/wiki/Edna_Krabappel" title="Edna Krabappel">Edna</a> uses a pigeon to taunt Skinner about how much better her life is without him, Chalmers shows compassion for Skinner until Edna reveals that she <a href="/wiki/Sexual_intercourse" title="Sexual intercourse">had an affair</a> with Chalmers, leaving Skinner angry and forcing Chalmers to flee. In "<a href="/wiki/Lisa_Simpson,_This_Isn%27t_Your_Life" title="Lisa Simpson, This Isn&#39;t Your Life">Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life</a>", it is revealed that Chalmers has nothing personal against Skinner and that he is aware that the antics within the school are a result of the students' reckless nature and the teachers' indifference, but <a href="/wiki/Scapegoat" title="Scapegoat">scolds Skinner</a> because he would have to face the ire of the parents or of the <a href="/wiki/Teachers%27_union" class="mw-redirect" title="Teachers&#39; union">teachers' union</a> otherwise, and because he likes Groundskeeper Willie. </p><p>Chalmers' own competence and dedication to his job are questionable. He lets <a href="/wiki/Ned_Flanders" title="Ned Flanders">Ned Flanders</a> allow the school to descend into anarchy when Flanders is principal, freely admitting that he had fired Skinner for far less, explaining simply that "Skinner really bugged me." He seems disturbingly unconcerned with the school's decline, stating that American public schools are already on the decline and will most likely end up just like Springfield Elementary (or worse) and tells Bart to sit back and enjoy the ride (though Chalmers does ultimately fire Flanders for mentioning God in a public school). He also promotes people based on personal bias as opposed to actual competence, promoting Principal Holloway, described by Skinner as a "drunk" and by Chalmers as a "pill-popper", to assistant superintendent after getting run over by a tractor driven by Bart and blaming Skinner for letting it happen. </p><p>Chalmers' first name is revealed to be Gary in "<a href="/wiki/Yokel_Chords" title="Yokel Chords">Yokel Chords</a>" and in "<a href="/wiki/Wild_Barts_Can%27t_Be_Broken" title="Wild Barts Can&#39;t Be Broken">Wild Barts Can't Be Broken</a>" it is revealed that he is a Spanish immigrant named "Señor Chalmers". In the episode "<a href="/wiki/Replaceable_You" title="Replaceable You">Replaceable You</a>", it is implied that Chalmers wears a toupee (according to Dolph's science project, a toupee detector). In the episode "<a href="/wiki/22_Short_Films_About_Springfield" title="22 Short Films About Springfield">22 Short Films About Springfield</a>", he mentions he is from <a href="/wiki/Utica,_New_York" title="Utica, New York">Utica, New York</a>, though in "<a href="/wiki/The_Old_Man_and_the_%27C%27_Student" class="mw-redirect" title="The Old Man and the &#39;C&#39; Student">The Old Man and the 'C' Student</a>" he says that he was born in <a href="/wiki/Queens,_New_York" class="mw-redirect" title="Queens, New York">Queens, New York</a>.

In "<a href="/wiki/Pranksta_Rap" title="Pranksta Rap">Pranksta Rap</a>", he takes a job as a bodyguard for rapper Alcatraaz, but only because his wife is really sick. In "<a href="/wiki/Bart_Stops_to_Smell_the_Roosevelts" title="Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts">Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts</a>", Chalmers mentions that he was once married and is now a widower, implying his wife died from her illness. </p><p>"<a href="/wiki/Bart_Stops_to_Smell_the_Roosevelts" title="Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts">Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts</a>" is the first (and so far only) episode in which Superintendent Chalmers is given a protagonist role. In the episode, Chalmers is challenged by Principal Skinner to get Bart interested in learning, and finds it in the form of teaching him about <a href="/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt" title="Theodore Roosevelt">Theodore Roosevelt</a>. After an unauthorized school field trip, Chalmers is fired for letting Nelson fall off a cliff, but is re-hired and given the title of Super-Duper-Intendent. In <i><a href="/wiki/The_Simpsons_Movie" title="The Simpsons Movie">The Simpsons Movie</a></i>, in addition to appearances in crowd scenes Superintendent Chalmers is shown in attendance at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting on Day 97 under the Dome. He is one of those who panics when a book thrown from outside the meeting room smashes through a window and knocks over the <a href="/wiki/Bunn-O-Matic_Corporation" title="Bunn-O-Matic Corporation">Bunn</a>-type coffee maker, apparently destroying the last of AA's coffee supply in Springfield. </p><p>In the DVD commentaries to "<a href="/wiki/22_Short_Films_About_Springfield" title="22 Short Films About Springfield">22 Short Films About Springfield</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Grade_School_Confidential" title="Grade School Confidential">Grade School Confidential</a>", it is noted that Superintendent Chalmers seems to be one of the few "normal" characters on the show and is frequently alone in his awareness of the show's zaniness (much like one-shot character Frank Grimes from "<a href="/wiki/Homer%27s_Enemy" title="Homer&#39;s Enemy">Homer's Enemy</a>"). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Surly_Duff">Surly Duff</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=List_of_recurring_The_Simpsons_characters&amp;action=edit&amp;section=196" title="Edit section: Surly Duff"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><b>Surly Duff</b> (voiced by Hank Azaria) is a mascot for Duff and one of the seven duffs.
