Hate Sink Wiki


Let's put a pin in it!
~ The Agent's infamous catchphrase.

The Agent is the main antagonist of Disney's 48th full-length animated feature film Bolt.

He is the former agent of Penny and Bolt while they were working for their show, which he was hellbent on profiting from. He's also preventing the two from interacting with each other behind-the-scenes because of his overall greed, even if they are co-stars.

He was voiced by Greg Germann.

What Makes Him a Hate Sink?[]

  • His overall personality is borderline obnoxious and obsessive, as the only thing he cares about reaping in the profits of Penny and Bolt's show despite the situation or what anyone else thinks.
  • His catchphrase, "Let's put a pin in it!" is incredibly aggravating and annoying as he uses it whenever he wants to get out of a conversation with someone, which happens a lot throughout the film.
  • He's a father and is implied to be a very neglectful one at that, claiming that he wishes Penny was his daughter instead of the one he has.
  • He shoots down Penny's request to take home Bolt for the weekend, instead demanding that she takes pictures for a cover. Keep in mind that this was his first scene.
  • When Penny tries to calm down Bolt after he witnessed her being captured as part of a cliffhanger, he once again refuses to let her see him. This is what leads to Bolt being shipped across the country when he frantically tries to find Penny, setting up the events of the film.
  • When Bolt remains missing after a long amount of time, not only is he unsympathetic to Penny, but he gets her a replacement dog in his absence so they could continue filming.
    • This was a stark contrast to Mindy, who was only on board with this since many people would lose their jobs. Not to mention she actually sympathized with Penny over her situation and showed disgust towards the Agent for how unsympathetic he was being.
  • After Penny and Bolt are nearly killed in the fire caused by the latter's replacement, he forces himself into the ambulance with them and Penny's mother and at first he seems comforting and empathetic towards the two, only to then start gushing about the publicity and studio leverage they can get from this incident, showing no concern for Penny's life due to her life-threatening burns and even encouraging her stressed mother to use said burns for said publicity. He outright shakes the gurney carrying Penny very hard in excitement while doing so.
  • While his story about getting a baseball glove as a bike implies his parents were neglectful and explains his greedy and apathetic personality, it's completely unknown if it is true or not, and he doesn’t even see to see his parents as bad people if it is true.
