Editing Richard Tweak (section)

==About==
Richard and his wife, [[Mrs. Tweak]], are the very proud owners of [[Tweek Bros. Coffee]], an independent coffee shop in South Park, and they also have a son named [[Tweek Tweak]]. When they were younger, Richard competed with other boys for her affections, but she only had eyes for him. They spend much of their time today managing their coffee shop, and take pride in providing the people of the town with that first fresh cup of coffee every morning… even if it has an infamous ‘raw sewage’ taste. Richard loves to remind his customers that Tweek coffee is brewed locally, but has a habit of becoming lost in metaphors about how his coffee is fresh like the dew in the grass after the sunrise, fresh like a rushing stream… fresh, local coffee, brewed locally.

The same nature that causes Richard to be a capable businessman and advertising spokesman often interferes with his family life, in stark contrast to his son’s anxiety and his wife’s calm empathy. When he’s ready to pursue something, Richard will throw himself into it with a laser sharp focus, and can often become overzealous, but can become inattentive of everything else, including his family’s needs, often prioritizing his momentary goal, such as defeating business competition or promoting a product, over his family’s discomfort. Despite this absent-minded nature, he does care about his wife and son and once he recognizes their feelings, he will try to make amends for them.

Although neither of them is nearly as jittery as their son, both Richard and his wife themselves can become paranoid about his future and safety, and their attempts to prepare him him for troubling situations can backfire spectacularly. Since Tweek was ‘outed’ as a homosexual, Richard has never been more supportive of proud of his little homosexual son or his [[Craig Tucker|boyfriend]], even when his son would rather he not bring it up.
