In the series[]

Phil and Mason play recurring roles in the series. Their major roles were in "Over Phil" and in "Eclipsed". In the former of the two, Phil and Mason get into a fight, causing Private to get the two of them back together. In "Eclipsed", they are tired of Julien trying to party with them Sunday morning and come out with a great idea to get Julien into believing that he must be kind; however, they usually don't cause any mischief. Briefly, Phil had a fight with Mason, and they didn't make up until Mason saved his friend and cleaned up their habitat, thus allowing them to become friends again.

Characteristics[]

Phil has a lighter brown shade of fur in the TV series. However, in the films, he was the same color as Mason's. This was to tell them apart. Throughout the most part, Phil cannot speak and communicates through sign language. He is also more messy than Mason. There is evident that he is not hearing-impaired, when he uses two bananas to block his ears from Julien's obnoxious music.

Trivia[]

  • In the TV series, Phil is a lighter color than Mason while in the film, they have the same color fur. (He probably got a color change by the animators to distinguish him and Mason apart.)
