— Richter to Simms when apprehended.

Richter is a notorious bank robber who appears in the Rugrats episode, "The Bank Trick", along with his partner, Simms. He and his partner, Simms, posed as "federal bank examiner" agents supposedly from the "Federal Bureau of Examinations" (FBE). Richter and his partner Simms were described as "notorious bank robbers" and have been evading criminal prosecution for years.

Description

Richter is an average height individual who wears a navy blue suit, white collared shirt, and a yellow tie. He is light skin with black hair and wears black shoes.

Personality

Richter is overly cautious when formulating heists. When in the bank conducting his "examinations" he carefully pays attention to Mr. Loew when giving him a tour of the bank's security system. He always tells Simms to write down key details such as the bank's new security system allowing the tellers to step on a red button connected to the police station which will allow the police to come in five minutes.

Richter is also very manipulative as he is shown to convince Loew to hand over the money by making snarky comments about the bank's security. When introduced to the red button's "five minute" police response time, he replied by saying, "Five minutes? Hardly record breaking". He also makes a snarky comment when shown the vault's security system where Mr. Loew says "Not even a fly can get into this vault undetected" only to have Richter respond saying, "A fly? No. A corrupt bank official? Who knows?".

Undoubtedly, his overly cautious and observant behavior is one of the key traits that allowed him and his partner to escape criminal prosecution for years. Additionally, his manipulation skills played a huge role in allowing him to successfully rob banks prior to the events taken place in "The Bank Trick".
