Personality[]

Classified has a very serious attitude, often irritated by the Penguin's actions. He doesn't like to be interrupted, and takes pleasure in stealing the spotlight. He appred selfish at first, making Skipper feel guilty for letting Private get caught, later as his arrogance and his overconfident ego got him and his team captured by Dave without a clear plan. As the movie progresses, Classified warms up to the Penguins, even after Private saves them, as they leave to grab new gear when the penguins are in danger, but Private rightfully points out his selfishness when he tells him just because Classified is not a Penguin doesn't mean he should treat him and his brothers differently, as he leaves to save his brothers alone, making Classified and his team to feel guilty and eventually they came back to help and after defeating Dave, Classified asks forgiveness over how he misjudged them and sees that they are in fact true of the bravest agents.
