Amelia "Amy" Gillis is a minor background character in Clarence. She made her first appearance in "Pretty Great Day with a Girl."
Appearance[]
Amy is a slender girl with fair skin, a round head, a small nose, and big eyes with visible eyelashes. Her hair is light brown and worn in pigtails.
She wears a pink-and-yellow bike helmet, a black tank top, light-blue jean shorts, white knee-high socks, and black shoes. Amy also wears a yellow beaded bracelet on her left arm and a watch on her right.
Biography[]
Amy lives four houses to the left from Clarence. Her parents are getting a divorce (as revealed when she tells Clarence she doesn't know if she will be living with her mom or her dad), and Amy believes she will have to move away. As a moving truck pulls into her driveway, Amy takes her bike and rides past Clarence, who is playing in the mud in his front yard. She asks him to go ride bikes with her; Clarence says he doesn't have one but Amy says he can just ride on the back of hers. Amy and Clarence go on an adventure to find an "erratic"—a rock that differs in shape and size from the natural rocks in the area—after finding out from her brother that there could be one in the park. Biking through the city, Clarence says "Hi" to many people and pets, causing Amy to remark that he knows everyone. When they bike past Belson, he becomes alarmed that Clarence is spending time with a girl and sets off with Nathan, Percy, and Dustin to follow them.
Amy and Clarence make it to the park and stumble upon the erratic while pretending to be bears. They climb to the top just as Belson shows up, who decides he should be the one playing on the rock and starts a pinecone war to get them off. The war continues until Amy's watch goes off, alerting her that it is dinnertime. Amy thanks Clarence for a fun day out and returns home.
She likes reading fantasy novels, which she shares with an uninterested Clarence.
Personality[]
Amy has a bright personality, much like Clarence. She is a very sweet and kind girl and full of adventure. Amy is also very competitive and a nature-lover.
Character Reception[]
Despite her appearing only one episode (not including her cameo in "Rough Riders Elementary" or the flashback in "Clarence for President"), she was considered as the most favorite female character by most of the Clarence fan base.
Trivia[]
- She has an unnamed brother, who is presumed to be older than she is. She also has an unnamed sister.
- Spencer Rothbell confirmed on his Twitter that Amy probably isn't going to return in any future episodes and that she was moving away in "A Pretty Great Day With a Girl." Despite this, she did make cameos in future episodes.
- In the series finale "Anywhere But Sumo," there is a girl in Clarence and Jeff's classroom that resembles her, but is not wearing her signature bike helmet.
