* SilverSpoonTroublemaker: Billy is introduced as such. He drunkenly drives his golf cart and ruins the gardener's hard work, and occasionally pulls childish pranks around town, like putting a BurningBagOfPoop on the front door of old man Clemen's house. Plus, he only graduated high school because his father bribed his teachers to give him good grades and ignore his misbehavior (as the reason Creator/SteveBuscemi's character crossed him off his "people to kill" list is that Billy apologized for bullying him in high school).
