Morty is Jerry's father. He has strong, if sometimes outdated, convictions about business and the way of the world.
He spent some time as a politician in his Florida retirement community.
During his working years, he sold raincoats with Harry Fleming and was the inventor of the "belt-less trench-coat."
He hates Velcro because of "that tearing sound." He is extremely mindful of money, once calculating the interest and lost value of $50 that was owed several decades ago.
He engages in frequent disputes with Jerry over money, refusing to let his son pay for anything in his presence, particularly restaurant checks.
