Physical makeup and behaviour
An immensely obese (weighing in at a metric ton) henchman hailing from Scotland, Fat Bastard served Dr. Evil in his quest to defeat Austin Powers and conquer Earth. He is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, and his unusual eating habits, namely a taste for babies (and anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people). He once tried to refuse Dr. Evil's money for his services in exchange for eating Mini-Me. (A commonly repeated quote is him saying to Mini-Me, "I'm bigger than you, I'm higher on the food chain! Get in ma belly!")Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me
Fat Bastard had stolen Austin's mojo in 1969, leaving Austin impotent in 1999. After seducing and sleeping with Fat Bastard, secret agent and Austin's ally Felicity Shagwell (Heather Graham) places a homing device in his anus. However, the device is ineffective, lost and left in a toilet when he defecates. In , during an assassination attempt against Austin, Fat Bastard says "I eat because I'm unhappy, and I'm unhappy because I eat. It's a vicious cycle. Now if you'll excuse me, there's someone I need to get in touch with; meself," after which he passes wind. He then tries to kill Austin Powers, but Felicity incapacitates him with a kick to his testicles.Austin Powers in Goldmember
In the next film, we find out that Fat Bastard has left Dr. Evil's employ, relocating to Japan. There he becomes a sumo wrestler, and despite trying to go straight, he still carries out the odd job for Dr. Evil. Eventually, by the end of Austin Powers in Goldmember he has lost all of his excess weight, thanks to the Subway diet. However he can be quoted as saying: "I've got a bit of excess skin though. And unfortunately, ma neck does kinda look like a vagina."Quotes
