Thomas McElroy is Chef's father who lives in Scotland. His first appearance was in the Season Three episode, "The Succubus", where he comes to South Park with his wife for Chef's wedding.

Background

He made a second appearance in the Season Six episode, "The Biggest Douche in the Universe". Chef takes Cartman and his mother to his parents' manor house in Scotland. Thomas and Nelle perform a shaman-esque ritual to exorcise Kenny's soul from Cartman's body. Although they are successful in exorcising Kenny's soul, they are unable to re-seal it because Chef hadn't brought a victim child to sacrifice. Instead, Kenny finds his way into a pot roast Nelle was preparing.

His most recent appearance to date is in "Red Sleigh Down", where he are seen along with Chef in a crowd during the town's Christmas celebration. He is not seen at Chef's funeral in "The Return of Chef".

Appearance

Personality

He appears to be friendly, being very accommodating to Liane Cartman and Eric Cartman when they visit their house in "The Biggest Douche in the Universe".

Thomas's main subject of conversation is the supposed encounters with the Loch Ness Monster.

According to Thomas, the monster has pretended to be a Girl Scout, an alien, and Chef's imaginary friend from childhood.
