Clem Foote

Who says guys can’t be cheerleaders? Clem’s one and does a bang-up job.

Old Psychopedia description

Clem Foote is a 10 year psychic camper at Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp. He and his best friend Crystal Flowers Snagrash consider it their task to cheer everyone on, but they themselves are not as happy as everyone might think. He is voiced by Andy Morris.

Personality[]

Haha! Yay! Raz learned Telekinesis! Right on!

–Clem Foote

Clem, like his best friend Crystal, loves to cheer his friends on. He acts supportive and upbeat, but has internal suicidal thoughts.

Appearance[]

Clem has orange skin, light blue eyes, and dark red hair. He is buck toothed. He wears a red-yellow-green striped headband, the standard Whispering Rock Camp T-shirt, green shorts and black shoes. He has four fingers on each hand.

Psychonauts[]

Clem (and Crystal) are first encountered before Basic Braining, where they are heard cheering. Later on, they egg Razputin on in the target punching minigame. They quickly become so annoying even the agreeable Raz starts telling them to shut up (to no avail). His special reward for beating the game is that the Coach explodes the cheerleaders out of his head.

After Basic Braining, Clem and Crystal are on top of one of the intercom poles near the Main Lodge. They once again cheer Raz on, which makes him conclude the two are really very nice. The moment Raz's back is turned, they start mixing a potion with a bottle featuring a skull and crossbones. If Raz goes up there to talk to them, they will spout more cheers, eventually Crystal breaks down because she came up with a bad cheer. Raz then decides to leave them alone for the time being.

Later still, they can be found on the roof of the Main Lodge, discussing something they call "the project", and how everyone else will pay for what they did. If Raz talks to them, they'll simply greet him, and Clem will whisper to Crystal to wait until he leaves to continue. It is notable that Clem acts far more cynical than Crystal, claiming that love cannot be trusted and that most people are "cruel, cruel, little ants" on the roof. Both also participate in the Levitation Race in Milla's Dance Party, but are not much of a threat.

When Clem's brain is recovered, he will immediately go look for Crystal, and once reunited, they cheer on Janitor Cruller while mopping. Crystal tells Razputin they tried committing suicide (by drinking the poison, and then jumping off a building when the poison failed to work), but now realize people need cheers most in these dark times. Janitor Cruller is instead plunged into despair because of their annoying cheering.

Psychonauts 2[]

Clem appears in the Psychonauts recap animation in Psychonauts 2. He also appears as a Figment in Fatherland Follies alongside Crystal.

Trivia[]

  • According to one of his comments on Elton's Campster page, it seems that Clem's father isn't that fond of him.
    • "No, I'm terrible at canoeing. My dad says I'm a total idiot when it comes to canoeing. And most other things. He said he'd rather ride a seal into a pool of sharks than ride in a canoe into a lake with me. Sometimes I wonder if he's right—if I am too stupid for this world."
  • Clairvoyance shows that Clem sees Razputin as a football (rugby) player, as does Crystal.
  • Punching either of the duo will result in them starting their target punching cheer again. After a few seconds of that, Raz will say "Oh god, what have I done?".
  • Mikhail speculates that if he ever fought the tall Clem, he would attempt to get him airborne before unleashing his telekeliminator.
  • Clem's favorite movie is Better Off Dead.
  • Clem enjoys Hanson music.
  • Clem's favorite books are No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre and Unleash the Giant Within.
    • The liking of No Exit could be a reference to a scene in Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives where a kid at Camp Crystal Lake is seen reading the same book.
  • Psychadet rank: Tender Brain
  • Hometown: Gary, IN
  • Psychic Specialty: Spirit!
  • According to his old Myspace page, Clem's zodiac sign is Scorpio.
