List of Skipper's relationships throughout The Penguins of Madagascar television series and the Madagascar film series.

Family[]

Kowalski[]

Main article: Kowalski & Skipper

Kowalski is Skipper's second in command, friend and brother figure. Skipper always looks to Kowalski for options and usually follows it. However, there are times when Skipper gets irritated with Kowalski's ideas, finding them sometimes ridiculous.  The few times he doesn't ask for Kowalski's ideas was when he refused to hear options from Kowalski because he got them in the situation in the first place.

Kowalski is usually a replacement as leader for Skipper whenever their leader is unavailable. An example is in "I Was A Penguin Zombie" where everyone believed Skipper was dead and Kowalski took over temporarily until he was revealed alive in the end of the episode).

Rico[]

Main article: Skipper & Rico

As children, Rico helps Skipper come up with their signature flipper slapping called the "high one." Because of his useful storage, Skipper comments that Rico is a "valued member of [their] team. They both have a love of destruction in the series, while it lacks in the films. However, in "Kaboom and Kabust" Skipper's love for destruction is not as strong as Rico's. He also fears that if Rico goes through stunts too much, then he'll overreact with it and do harm not only to others, but also to himself.

Private[]

Skipper&Private

Skipper with Private, "Revenge of Dr. Blowhole"

Private is the youngest of Skipper's brothers.

Ever since Private was a child, Skipper has loved him and called him adorable (which got annoying to Private after ten years of hearing it come from Skipper's mouth.) Even though Skipper is hard at times, he has a soft spot for Private. In "When the Chips Are Down", Skipper thought they truly lost Private and began grieving for him, but immediately cried and later hugged Private, telling him to never scare Skipper like that ever again. During the film, Skipper continues treating him like a tagalong. He then endangers Private when he has him as the distraction to stop Dave and ends up getting Private kidnapped by the mad scientist. Skipper later becomes determined to save him from Dave, and becomes very distraught when the medusa serum seemingly kills Private. Skipper believes that Private is dead after he fails to call them through the upper level.
