He first appears in "Butterfly Effect", and since then, he has made many other appearances and cameos. In "Intern for the Worse", he returns as the main antagonist.
Personality
He appears to be a smug opportunist and a swindler, as seen in "Come Sale Away", where he manages to cheat each Loud sibling by giving them "Lily's blanket" in exchange for their garage sale money.
In "Out on a Limo", Lincoln states that he never gives him free smoothies, which means that Flip is stingy.
In "Intern for the Worse", he comes between Lincoln and Clyde's friendship, by making them compete for higher ranking staff positions at his store, much to his advantage.
Flip is also a very repulsive man, as seen in "Intern for the Worse" where he sells expired milk, and uses the melted cheese machine to put his dirty clothes, mostly his socks. He also falsifies lottery tickets with a black marker. The oil he uses in his store was actually hot dog grease. His disgusting behavior is shown again in "Roadie to Nowhere", where he has so much gunk on his teeth which Rita tries to remove. He also has a false tooth made out of beef jerky.
He cares a lot for his profits, but has no regard for safety or lives of his customers, because in "Washed Up" he let Louds hire a broken boat from him. He blamed them for ruining it, despite it was his own fault. In addition, in "Snow Way Out", he would have abandoned the Loud children and Hops if not given the tickets, despite them being in danger of developing hypothermia.
Flip is also an opportunist, as seen in "Last Loud on Earth" he used the storm as a distraction to steal some burgers from Burpin' Burger.
He doesn’t care if food is cold.
