Cutthroat Bill

From MIwiki

Cutthroat Bill is one of the pirate barbers in The Curse of Monkey Island. His fellow buccaneer hairstylists are Haggis McMutton and Edward van Helgen.

Bill is a short but gravely voiced pirate. He appears fixated on gold and joins Guybrush's crew only after he proves to him that he can find gold. In the Mega Monkey Mode the player ends up nearly choking Bill to death and then saving him with (both) with a slap on the back. This is necessary for the acquisition of the jawbreaker. He considers calling Guybrush's action the Threepwood Manouvre, but decides against it: "Nah!"

Journeys

Bill started off as a crewman on The Raging Tightwad, sailing out of Puerto Pollo. His captain was a master treasure hunter who had a fifth sense (he was born without taste buds) when it came to finding treasure. After sailing around for weeks, the captain said the crew's golden earrings and belt-buckles threw the captain off. They tossed them into the sea, and after a while they found great treasure off the coast of Plunder Island. Unsurprisingly, this was the pile of golden earrings and belt-buckles.
