Role in episode[]

He visits Kamp Koral for a wilderness presentation, and defeats the sea bear that is terrorizing the camp. He then shows off his strength, then goes into his tent for a nap. SpongeBob and Patrick sneak into his tent and steal his beard. They take turns trying out his beard, then Patrick accidentally destroys it. After Paul Grunion finds out his beard has been destroyed, SpongeBob and Patrick try to get his beard to grow back. This doesn't work, however, but eventually the whole camp convinces him to believe in himself, which causes his beard to grow back, along with also giving everyone in camp a beard. He then finally leaves the camp.
