Role in the series[]
Before 4th grade, Bo had been considered a menace due to countless rumors spreading around, and therefore he was wildly misunderstood and was even used by Benjamin Krupp and Melvin Sneedly to terrify the other children.
One day, George Beard and Harold Hutchins decided to go into Bo's "base", (the art room), where they see Bo in the shadows. Eventually, Bo starts running to them, terrifying them to run away as fast as they could. Eventually, Bo surrounds George and Harold, where he reveals his top secret project... clay figures of Captain Underpants and others! After learning about this and the surprisingly good quality they had, they realized everyone was wrong about Bo and spread it around the entirety of 4th grade that Bo was not actually scary and was actually friendly. Everyone cheers and celebrates... except for Mr. Krupp and Melvin.
Now that Bo is considered a good person to the 4th graders, Mr. Krupp orders Melvin to make others still fear Bo, so he turns Bo into Claylossus using a special invention, and leads Bo to believe that he had no friends, making him bring chaos upon Piqua, Ohio. Due to this, George and Harold turn Mr. Krupp into Captain Underpants and tell him to stop Bo but don't actually hurt him. Captain Underpants tries to do so, but accidentally infuriates Claylossus enough to spread his clay body over the entire Piqua, Ohio, turning everyone into clay.
After Melvin and his machine that could revert Bo are eaten by the latter, Captain Underpants goes into the stomach of Bo and retrieves the machine and Melvin, and afterwards, Bo is reverted into normal, and learns that he indeed does have friends: George and Harold, ultimately foiling Mr. Krupp and Melvin's plans.
After his debut, Bo appears a lot with the other students in mild supporting roles in episodes, however, he never had another severe major appearance.
