He wears a white suit with gray vest and a cowboy hat, and, like his two accomplicesBelle andBilly Bob, speaks in a stereotypical Southern dialect.

The colonel then manages to find Donkey Kong and tries to talk to him; Donkey Kong refuses at first, but Culpepper then allows him to get flattered by Belle, and both of them send Donkey Kong into the museum to steal the emerald. Donkey Kong succeeds, but is forced to flee to the jungle. The colonel and his accomplices give chase on a personalized motorboat, and they succeed in pushing Donkey Kong out of the way ofMario's trap, causing the emerald to fall into the colonel's hand. However, this also causes the cage from Mario's trap to drop onto the group. Culpepper is not seen again for the rest of the episode, though it is assumed that he was arrested by the police for his theft.
