As a result, the Blue Team devise a plan to kill O'Malley, with Church and Tex entering Caboose's Mind as ghosts in an attempt to kill the A.I. Tex then reappears as a 'ghost' and reveals to the Blues that the only way to truly defeat O'Malley is to enter Caboose's mind, eliminate him, & prevent him from entering anyone else. In Season 2, Caboose starts to talk and act unusually, due to his infection by O'Malley. At this point, Caboose becomes possessed by O'Malley, Tex's rage-induced artificial intelligence who transmits himself to Caboose by radio before Tex is killed. After they do, Tex fixes Sheila for them and attacks the Reds. Church then reappears as a 'ghost' and tells Tucker and Caboose about his relationship with Tex, prompting the three to rescue her. After Tex manages to regain the Blue Team flag from the Reds she is captured by them. Afterward, Caboose and Tucker contact Blue Command for help and are sent Freelancer Tex. Caboose then begins to show affection towards Sheila. Meanwhile, Simmons and Grif have sent their team's rookie, Donut, on a fool's errand for nonexistent supplies. In a mutual misunderstanding, Donut mistakes Caboose for a shopkeeper, and Caboose mistakes Donut for the 'general' and allows him to take the flag. When Church and Tucker learn of this they try to get the flag back with the teleporter, only to end up getting attacked by Grif and Simmons in the warthog. Seeing his teammates in trouble, Caboose gets into the tank who introduces herself as Sheila.Ĭaboose accidentally kills Church while using Sheila and narrowly escapes a bombing run that disables the tank.

He was then transferred to Blood Gulch after an accident by Flowers which caused V.I.C. There, he received multiple demerits after endangering several teammates by possessing no concept of how breathing works in space. After boot camp, Caboose was transferred to a low-gravity outpost on a remote moon. While applying for college, Caboose mistook an army recruiting center in a local strip mall as an exclusive ivy-league university and signed up for the UNSC. Later on, Caboose became the most iconic character of Red vs. The staff later made Caboose less intelligent to add more humor in series. Partially due to positive fan reaction, Burnie Burns, the main writer for the series, focused the storyline on Caboose and Donut ( Dan Godwin), the Red Team's rookie. Caboose always tries to impress Church and help him as well, stating that they are best friends, despite the fact Church is constantly annoyed by him. Because of his intelligence and unusual behavior, he acts very childish: treating serious situations like a silly game, envious for not being favored at some points, and having illogical reasons for his actions, which frequently earns him the scorn and disrespect of the series' other characters.ĭespite this, many characters show care for him, including the Reds, who he treats as neighbors instead of enemies. In the course of the series, he has been repeatedly subjected to mental trauma and physical brain damage, which is visible in the downfall of his behavior. In Season 1, Caboose was dim-witted and less eccentric than he was in later seasons, where he then later showed near detachment from reality.

Caboose can be considered as, by far, the most unintelligent character in the series, although at first this wasn't noticeable.
