Guy-Am-I is an anthropomorphic Knox who doesn't like Green Eggs and Ham until later.
History[]
Guy-Am-I is a failed inventor whose inventions always explode. He meets Sam at Donna's Diner, and accidentally switches his briefcase with the Self Flyer and Sam's briefcase with Mr. Jenkins. They begin traveling together and form a friendship, until Guy discovers that Sam is a con artist, making Guy get angry with him and even say that he does not fit anyone, not even his own mother. This line makes Sam upset with Guy, until the latter decides to eat Green Eggs and Ham by his own volition to show how much he cares for Sam. Like in the book and special, Guy ends up loving the dish, and says that he will eat with all the animals and in all the locations he has been offerred throughout the series.
