About this deal
Jail Broken marks the first time the two brothers have a profound disagreement: While Cuphead wants to escape from prison, Mugman wants to make the best of it. Although they will escape together, their time in prison seems to have strained their relationship as they spent the majority of Season 2 arguing. From getting upset at his brother for eating his candy and getting them lost in the woods, to trivial things like where to spend the day, this shows that while Mugman does love Cuphead and will go with the flow, his patients does reach a boiling point, as Mugman let his jealousy towards Cuphead taking his place in "Piano Lessons," cause him to rig a piano to drop on Cuphead after the performance; but later on, he is shown to understand his mistake. Made of porcelain: 3 hits can kill him (4 while equipped with the Heart Charm,5 while equipped with the Twin Heart Charm and 6 with the Heart Ring charm if Cuphead gets all 6 parries before getting hit).

Mugman seems to like Porkrind, which is not reciprocated, as we can see in the episode Dangerous Mugman. Mugman is excited as he tells him a story about a shoe he lost, not knowing that it deeply upsets Porkrind. He is offended when the merchant does not believe him capable of accomplishing the mission he and Cuphead have set out on, and he is determined to prove to him that he can be brave too. At the end of the episode, he is grateful to Porkrind for giving him the arcade game, without realizing, once again, that it is just a way for Porkrind to get rid of him and Cuphead.

A bit more cautious and thoughtful, many consider Mugman to be the sensible one of the two Cuphead brothers. While both of them are playful and, at times, immature, Mugman is much more of a worrier than his sibling. However, sometimes despite the fact that he has a more cowardly nature, Mugman always stands up for his brother and is happy for Cuphead to drag him along on their many adventures.
