Even when he tries to avoid it, he always somehow manages to find himself in embarrassing situations. His girlfriend Amy is very embarrassed of him, but still stays with him to help him sort out his problems. She yearns for her and Tom to be a normal couple, and dresses better than him while making more money than him. The voice actor of Amy is M.J. Otto. Luckily, Tim can depend on his best friend and co-worker Stu, who is voiced by Nick Kroll. Stu focuses on the simple things in life, and acts impulsively without worrying about the consequences.
