Main

**Hank Hill** is a male human that resides in Arlen, Texas.

## Bio

Hank Hill is a man who comes lived in Arlen, Texas, with his single wife, Peggy Hill, and his ailing son, Bobby Hill. He and his son were very close, nicknaming each other "Mario and Luigi." Prior to this, Hank joined the U.S. Army as an engineer and had earned the rank of private. However, he was let go from service and returned home. Allegedly, his commanding officer commented that Hank could not commit to teamwork and was considered unreliable. Since then, Hank tried finding work for him to support his sick son but struggled to get ones.

### Personality

In terms of personality, Hank is very similar to Optimus Prime: stubborn, protective, both fighting for their homes and older brothers simply looking out for their own. Upon the beginning of the film, Hank is already shown to be a tech expert by simply fixing a device for his friend, Dale. He was also once a soldier but was released from service for allegedly "not working well with others." However, he has an obligation to look out for his wife and son. And Hank tries his best as such as supporting Bobby with his illness and helping his wife around the house, as seen with his poor attempt at cooking. Since the Hill family merely consists of himself, Peggy and Bobby, Hank tries his hardest to support his family and pay for his son's medical bills. When his job interview was cancelled, Hank decided to resort to stealing with a job his friends gave him. However, Hank grew nervous about stealing an engine and, at the last minute realized he was not a criminal. When the engine comes to life, Hank was immediately terrified and started screaming when he and the engine were chased by the police.

After the train chase, Hank was initially terrified to see the engine turn into a sentient robot Illusion. However, he quickly overcame this when Hank grabbed a steel pipe and bravely threatened Illusion with it. However, he was immediately afraid of the other Trainbots when they met for the first time. Initially reluctant to help the Trainbots gain the Transwarp key, Hank changed his mind when Illusion convinced him to help. However, he was quick to judge people when he first met because Hank dismissed Thomas as being cynical and uncaring. He is very honorable, as he also came back to save his niece Luanne from Wasps when Hank had the opportunity to flee. When he realized the Earth was in danger because of Unicrane and his Terrortrains, Hank forced his way into the journey to Japan, mainly because he planned to betray the Trainbots and our heroes when he found the key because he didn't trust Thomas. However, Hank also did so to save his family and people but never takes into account of the Trainbots plight until Thomas convinced him not to destroy the key.

Hank also seems to form strong bonds with other people and takes his friendships seriously, notably with Thomas, Luanne, and Illusion. He became fire forged friends with Illusion, who came to respect his bravery and helped distract Luanne from her air sickness.

By the film's end, Hank is a man with a noble heart. He realizes he had selfish reasons for destroying the key and finally acknowledge his mistakes. After a heart to heart conversation with Thomas, Hank rallies support from both the Kaiju Bots and the Trainbots. When Hank was powered by Illusions' exosuit, he fought alongside Thomas, Percy, and the Trainbots, even managing to stab Scorchquake in the leg. His newfound loyalty for the Trainbots lead Hank to becoming brothers in arms with Illusion and coming back for Thomas. He also succeeds in fixing Illusion and both get their revenge on Hank's for abandoning him to the cops during the train chase.
