Los-pinguinos-de-madagascar 029


Dave, also known as Dr. Octavius Brine, is the main antagonist of Penguins of Madagascar. He is voiced by John Malkovich.


Dave was originally an octopus that lived in the Central Park Zoo. He entertained children with his many tricks. However, when the Penguins came along they stole all of his glory and he was then transferred to another zoo. The same thing happened again and again and again. Dave then grew hateful towards penguins and plotted revenge against them. He escaped captivity and became a mad scientist and supervillain. He created a green chemical called the "Medusa Serum", which turns animals into evil, hideous monsters. He disguised himself under the alias "Dr. Octavius Brine" and kidnapped penguins from every zoo he had lived in, including Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, and Private.


Later, Dave is revealed to have also caught in the blast, and as a result, he is shrunk and trapped in a snow globe. He swears revenge against the penguins, but he's interrupted when a little girl picks up his snow globe and proceeds to shake him around. It is unknown what happened to him after this.
