“We were about to call the police.”
―Robert gets angry at Rowley and Greg.



Robert Jefferson is the father of Rowley Jefferson, the husband of Mrs. Jefferson, the brother of Rowley's Uncle and son of Rowley's Grandfather. He appears as a minor antagonist. He is one of the wealthiest people in Surrey Street, as well as the least respected in his neighborhood. In the movie, he is played by the late Alf Humphreys. He has an on-and-off hatred towards Greg because he sometimes believes he was a bad influence on Rowley.

Personality

He is an extremely overprotective but well-intentioned parent and will not let Rowley play any video games with the slightest bit of violence or fighting in it, as he sees them as things that could change Rowley into a different person. In Old School, he is seen hollering at Rowley to put a stick down. He will not even let Rowley use the internet. He does not like criticism from people as seen in Dog Days.
