Rex is a local dojo owner in Preston, Idaho. He owns the Rex Kwon Do martial arts center, which teaches a style of self defence, but Rex is somewhat of a poor trainer, who uses weaker people for his examples, like in his commercial, and Kip, and even then he uses cheap tricks to fight. He also verbally abuses people, like Napoleon. He is portrayed by Diedrich Bader.
Background[]
Rex advertises his dojo on TV, and claims his students will learn "the strength of a grizzly, the reflexes of a puma, and the wisdom of a man." This catches Kip's attention, who goes over to the dojo with Napoleon to try it out. There, Rex calls Kip up for a demonstration. Kip is eager to show off his skills, but by the end of the demonstration, Kip has realized that Rex Kwon Do is not very good for him, when Rex physically overwhelms him and doesn't teach him anything. Rex then explains some rules, mocking Napoleon's fashion style and calls his clothes gay ending any chance of Napoleon joining. Kip and Napoleon leave, calling his dojo "a rip-off."
Later, Uncle Rico attempts to sell breast enhancing products to Rex's wife, Starla. Rex walks in and finds Uncle Rico in a very awkward position. Rex then beats up Uncle Rico, and breaks his left arm.
