Woodpecker Guy[1] is a resident of Gravity Falls and former member of the Blind Eye Society.
History[]
Early life[]
Before Dipper and Mabel Pines' arrival in Gravity Falls, the man gained entry into the ranks of the Blind Eye Society, both out of a desire to keep the town's supernatural secrets hidden and to allay "society's views" on his strange fondness of woodpeckers.
Season 1[]
The groom insists his marriage is legal.
The man is seen at his wedding ceremony to a woodpecker in "Irrational Treasure," where he assures the Pines family that the marriage is indeed still legal. The newlyweds later argue about migrating south for the winter, and storms out of their ironically entirely-wooden house after his wife pecks at the table.
Season 2[]
The woodpecker's husband reveals himself.
In "Society of the Blind Eye," the woodpecker's husband reveals himself as a member of the illicit Blind Eye Society to Dipper and the gang, as they feel it is of no danger considering they are all about to be wiped of their summer memories. When Soos questions him on the status of his marriage with the woodpecker, he claims it is running smoothly in front of his wife, however he quickly whispers that it is indeed very troubled. After taking part in the skirmish to recover Old Man McGucket's stolen memories, his knowledge of the organization is erased completely through the Memory erasing gun, he stumbles home from the museum, disoriented by the experience. According to the cryptogram at the end, he wanted to forget about the views of society.
In "The Stanchurian Candidate," he is at the town meeting to discuss the new mayor, and among the voters throwing bird seed during the Friday debate.
In "Weirdmageddon 2: Escape From Reality" and "Weirdmageddon 3: Take Back The Falls", the woodpecker's husband is revealed to have avoided capture or madness and has joined Stan's Resistance Group, who reside in the Mystery Shack. The woodpecker has, however, been turned to stone, along with part of her husband's shoulder.
