Dextor's Parents are minor characters in Dexter's Laboratory. They only appeared in the episode "Coupon for Craziness".
Appearance and personality[]
Dextor's parents are very similar in appearance to Mom and Dad, although they both wear scientist apparel and Dextor's mom, unlike Dexter's mom, wears glasses.
They are shown to be highly intelligent scientists who are also extremely strict about education and their son's diet, as shown by Dextor's mom refusing to let Dexter watch TV during pamphlet reading hour. Additionally, they are also shown to be cold, as when Dexter asks for a kiss on his index finger following an injury, she tells him that kisses cannot fix injuries whilst fixing Dexter's finger.
Biography[]
In their only appearance, Dextor's parents were with their only child while at the supermarket. As they were engaged in measuring the size of a melon, Dextor's mom orders him to go wait by the magazine rack until they were finished shopping. When it was time for them to leave, Dexter goes with Dextor's parents while Dextor himself went with Mom, Dad, and Dee Dee.
When Dexter arrives at Dextor's house, he is lovestruck at their interest in science, but after a while, Dexter learned how aloof Dextor's parents are and schemed to reunite with his family at the supermarket. By doing so, Dexter laid out a trail of chocolate chip cookies for Dextor to follow as Dexter went to reunite with his parents and sister. As Dexter is happy to be with his family again, Dextor's parents are unsuccessful in stopping their son from jumping on a stack of melons whilst holding a cookie.
