Dexter Grif

Captain Dexter Grif is one of the main protagonists of the Red vs. Blue series. He appeared in the 136th episode of Death Battle, Red VS Blue, where he and his teammates fought against the Blue Team.
==History==
Captain Dexter Grif is known the laziest member of the Red Team, and the butt of many jokes. Grif attended college for a year before he dropped out and joined the military. At some point, Grif was deployed in a simulation outpost called Danger Canyon. After failing to appear on time for a training exercise, Grif encountered future teammate Simmons, whom he would develop a complex friendship with. Despised by his leader Sarge, Grif has the lowest social and military rank, and while Grif's laziness does create problems for the Reds, Sarge always blames him when things go wrong, regardless of Grif's, or anyone else's, actual guilt in the matter. Physically, a lifetime of smoking and always eating processed snacks has left Grif in the worst shape for a soldier. But despite his strong desire to leave the army, Grif has continued to help the Red Team in many battles, often serving as their vehicle expert.

|-|Meta VS Carolina=
*Hey.
*You ever wonder...who'd win in a fight between Carolina and the Meta?
*Uh, yeah. Why do you think I'm asking you? Come on, picture it. It'd be totally bad-ass!
*Bullshit! You're just picking her because you're scared of girls! Meta's WAY scarier. He threw a Warthog at me!
*Just ignore him.
*No, but I DO know that you're still fucking wrong.
*Well that was fast.
*I think you're forgetting that Command's best is just a step up from incompetent.
*I rest my case.
*Wow, those are the dumbest names I've ever heard.
*...And I retract my previous statement.
*Uh, I thought you were supposed to be smart. I'm wearing a helmet.
*Hey! That's mine! Give it back! AHH! OWW!
*Yeah. So?
*Oh, shit.
*Phew...
*Huh? Wait, it ran out of--GYAAAH!!!
*Hey, wait a minute! Where'd you get all this footage? Have you been spying on us?
*Oww!! Why me!?
*Wait, WHAT?! You're making that up!
*Fuck, dude. Remember when all we used to do was stand around and talk?
*Good times... Ow.
*Holy shit!
*Bullshit! Meta's stronger, he should've won!
*Whatever. I still say it should've been the Meta.
*I can tell the difference! It was a matter of comparison!
|-|Red VS Blue=
*Yoink!
*What fake weather report?
*Uh, yeah. I know.
*No way, those caves are a maze.
*Hey, don't leave me out here!
