Mr. Perkins is the secondary antagonist in Despicable Me. He is a tall and plump man who runs the Bank of Evil. He is also Vector’s father.
Personality
Mr. Perkins is a selfish and short-tempered man. He showed a dislike for Gru and stated that he preferred to use younger villains, such as his son. He also compared Gru to an apple and crushed two apples when speaking to him on different occasions.
While Mr. Perkins is proud of his son's accomplishments, he did get angry with his son for losing the Shrink Ray. Despite that, it is implied that he had an affection for his son as he keeps a portrait of himself giving a young Vector a piggy-back ride on his desk.
