. He tries to keep Chris away from trouble and to protect him, but he can have an attitude at him sometimes, especially when Chris had the gun in his bed, and during a dream shot it at the wall.

Patsy Holland is Chris's overprotective mother, so overprotective that when a policeman explains to them that they can't find the "third one that got away", she makes the family move to a new house.

Earl is the antagonist of the film, the leader of the robbers who were shot and killed by Chris. When he gets out of jail near the end of the film, he picks up the escaped 3rd robber, Ricky, and they seek revenge by confronting Chris and his family in the front yard of their new house.
