Perry is a male Mechanical employee at the Blinking Lights factory and a recurring character on the series.
Very little about Perry is known, other than the fact his face gears are broken, causing him to smile endlessly. He is still understandable when he clenches his teeth in the smile.
Perry is a frequent target of Gart's abuse, as noted in his first major episode, "Come On, Get Happy". Perry frequently ends up getting hurt in most episodes, especially due to the responsibility of other characters, mainly Robot and Monster. He often says aloud that he hates the neighborhood and that he should move. He openly told Robot that he didn't like him in "Pinball Wizard" and in "Spare Robot". However, their relationship has slowly progressed to a calm, mutual friendship; as they both share a strong hatred to Gart. He is friends with other close individuals such as Monster, J.D., Spitfire, Nessie, and even Punch Morley. Monster, along with several other characters, had once believed that Perry was the happiest person in the world in his first major episode Come On, Get Happy because of his constant smiling, but Perry revealed that he was miserable, and that living with a forced smile made his life difficult.
It is revealed in "Come On, Get Happy" that his wife had left him, it is uncertain if Perry will recall her or his broken marriage in future episodes to come. She may have left him due to his perpetual smile. However, he's seen to have moved on from the misfortune and possibility in the process of dating.
Since his first major episode, Perry has become a common character whether featured in the background or appearing alongside main characters Robot and Monster. His appearances as well as his roles have become more frequent as the first season progressed, making him an important supporting character on the series, nearly as much as Ogo. Whenever special events in the Makin' Bacon are taken place, Perry is usually their alongside main characters Robot and Monster as well as other supporting characters besides himself. Although despising his permanent smile, these events mark where he is genuinely happy, such as completely engrossed with excitement during Poetry Night in "Spare Robot", enjoying hearing others sing during Karaoke Night in The Bacon Tree, even quarreling and betting for his favorite Pole-O team against Spitfire's in "The Super Pole".
