History
We Bare Bears: The Movie
During the courts about the Bears for going wild through the entire city and blackouts with Officer Murphy's objections, Agent Trout arrived and starts to gave some of his fake news to the people about that the Bears had been stack to be dangerous and they must be separated by maintaining order by any means of possible. Once the Bears are taken away with Trout watching them, Darrell, Ranger Tabes, Chloe, and Lucy confront him for being cruel towards the Bears and deceiving everyone with his lies. Trout instead callously dismiss their complaints and lies that he is sending them to the nature preserve for safety, much to Chloe's disgust. Ironically, Murphy appears on sight, making Trout freak out to question at Murphy for someone else driving the van.
The next morning, the police begins investigating the Bears cave until Trout arrives as then summons his reinforcements to capture the Bears. In an attempt to fulfill his ambitions, Trout must be ready to separate the Bears in natural order: Grizzly in North America, Panda in China, and Ice Bear in the Arctic. While at the intersection's inspection, the Bears quickly disguised themselves to sneak past the National Wildlife Preserve soldiers in their van. When the second van pulls up, the soldier calls for Trout that he caught the Bears, which he walks over and attempts to arrest them. Unfortunately for Trout, he found out that it has a real people in the same van that Bears had, driving an angry Trout berate his soldier for his failure before Murphy reappears with getting his croissant shoved in his mouth by Trout.
After Trout founds the Bears at the famous animal celebrities party by Pizza Rat (Who was trying to get more followers and jealous of their inconclusive), he and his reinforcements try to capture the Bears, but the animal celebrities attack them, allowing the Bears to escape with their fully repaired van by the raccoons until Trout wrecks the music and proceeded his chase through the bridge as he struggle to capture Panda. The Bears manages to lose him by jumping over the gap bridge after activating the rocket upgraded booster to make their way to Canada. The soldier informs Trout about the Bears' cellphone they've accidentally left behind during their runaway. After being unable to enter to Canada and their arguments, Trout appears with his reinforcements as he showed them their cellphone of their plans to go Canada until he orders his reinforcements to capture them. Eventually, Trout takes the Bears to the Natural Preserve. However, Trout finally reveals his true plans to separate the Bears by sending Panda to China and Ice to Arctic while he puts disheartened Grizzly in his cage with other abused grizzlies (Including the Cubs) that captures previously. Murphy criticizes Trout for his cruel methods toward the Bears, but instead he dismisses him from the case. In the meantime, Trout begins to torment Grizzly in his cage and reveals his true plans about predatory of human dominance before cruelly leaving to proceed with his plans, making Grizzly sob in failure.
After Grizzly (regaining his confidence from his young self and the other grizzlies) breaks out of his cell before freeing the other grizzly bears to rescue his brothers. As Panda and Ice Bear's cages are preparing to lift away by the helicopter, Trout and his reinforcements hears a large rumbling sound where Grizzly and the other bears breakthrough the fence to ambush and, which also causes several of the scared natural preserve soldiers to run away because their fury. Enraged, Trout sticks out his taser, rants about his immensely hatred of bears as he advances and threaten them with it while both Panda and Ice bears cell is lift off in mid-air away. Fortunately, Grizzly throws the axe to Ice Bear who liberates himself and helps Panda as they’ve land to preserve safely to confront Trout in rage, much to Trout's shock. Surrounded with angry bears, Trout frantically tried to attack them with taser but the bears roar at him and he gets scared, Grizzly tells him that the cages, the reservation and everything is because Trout is afraid of what is different and not because it is the right thing to do, Trout tries to find an escape but ends up running towards a cage and it is locked. Trout demands to be taken out and hypocritically states that nature has an order to which Grizzly tells him that nature adapts and that him should do so, leaving Trout completely humiliated. Suddenly, the wildfire begins spread everywhere that traps the Bears on sight before Murphy arrives with a helicopter to rescue the Bears from the wildfire.
Upon the failures of his attempts, Trout escape from his cell and climb on the Bears to stack until he begins to mock them as he tries to escape and plans to leave the bear in the wildfire to their death (Possibly out of spite for ruining his plans) as he continues to mock the bears because they only stack and can't stop him. Before he can do so, Murphy ambushes Trout by shoving a donut into his mouth and handcuffs him to the rail with one final insult about shutting up, much to his dismay. Following his defeat, Trout was finally arrested and imprisoned by Murphy and the rest of his police officers for endangering the bear species and some other crime charges.
It is somewhat implied that Trout was sentenced to prison for possibly the rest of his life, with his position getting permanently removed for his crimes where he would suffers the worst atrocities in prison, therefore receiving ironic and karmic fate like he exactly did to all bears for his own pleasure.
Appearance
He is a tall, middle-aged adult man with grey hair and glasses. He wears a black business suit with a blue tie and black leather gloves along with a tan trenchcoat adorned with a police badge on the coat.
Personality
Trout is a biased and prejudiced individual who looks down on the Bears as wild savage beasts that can't fit into human society and makes it his goal to send the Bears to a wildlife preserve. He makes this ideal clear by using brute force to capture the Bears and even comes close to separating the Bear brothers by shipping Panda to China and Ice Bear to Alaska. He later forces Grizzly into a cage with several other endemic bears and shows immense pleasure in taunting Grizzly. He has a xenophobic ideal that nature has an order and will use abuse and violence to show it as shown when he is willing to tase the Bears at the facility, all because he is afraid of what is different. When the bear facility gets caught up in the wildfire and Grizzly, Panda, Ice Bear, and the other bears try to stack up in order to escape, Trout uses the Bears to escape from the wildfire onto the helicopter and attempts to leave the Bears to die, showing immense sadistic satisfaction in his actions. This leads to his downfall at the hands of a disgusted Officer Murphy, which resulted in his arrest.
Abilities
Trout, despite his age, is shown to be very fit, being almost in Peak human condition. In addition he also is extremely skilled at tracking.
Relationships
The Bears
Agent Trout is prejudiced towards the Bears as he resentfully sees them as nothing but "filthy, mindless beasts," which he even admitted in front of Grizz's face. He manipulates the public into believing that the Bears are dangerous to society and need to be locked up to maintain the "natural order" during a court hearing. Later on, it is shown that prior to the events of the movie, he had captured and abused dozens of innocent bears for his own pleasure, with him having numerous bears caged in rather harsh conditions and left with injuries and bruises, likely from his cruel treatment of them. After he found the Bears in Canada via Panda's cellphone, he planned to separate the brothers by sending both Panda and Ice Bear to different locations while imprisoning Grizz along with other abused grizzly bears in cages. When Grizz and the other captured bears manage to escape captivity, free Panda and Ice Bear and trap Trout in a cage, he angrily yells at the Bears about how nature with bears doesn't work, and when Grizz tells him that nature adapts and he should too, he still refuses to reconsiders his ways. Not long afterwards, he attempts to leave all of the bears to die in a wildfire out of spite, only to get defeated and arrested by a disgusted Officer Murphy. After his arrest, he still remains remorseless over his actions as he hatefully glared at Grizz, Panda and Ice Bear while being taken away.
Officer Murphy
Officer Murphy was willing to assist Trout with capturing the Bears but questioned the latter's motives as he considered his methods too harsh and extreme and winced at his demonstration on a teddy bear. While they worked together, Trout constantly abused Officer Murphy by shoving a donut and other objects up his mouth just to shut him up constantly for petty reasons, showing no care for him at all and simply viewing him as an expendable pawn to accomplish his goals. Ultimately, after Trout plans to separate the Bears, Murphy starts to feel a bit of regret and eventually sees Trout for the callous and cruel person that he truly is, shoving up a donut up his mouth and arresting him for his heinous crimes.
Pizza Rat
Pizza Rat ratted out the Bears' location to him in a selfish act to get more followers on social media. After the Bears are found by Trout and discover that Pizza Rat snitched, Trout's soldiers all instantly follow Pizza Rat on social media, making the internet star extremely happy about getting more followers. While Trout does show gratitude towards Pizza Rat for helping him find the bears, it is still out of pragmatism and also for his own benefit rather than genuinely.
