Season 1[]
Brucks is the dimwitted Kyler's best friend. One night, he, along with Kyler and his group, try to buy beer in a mall, despite being minors. However, Miguel Diaz inadvertently exposes them for not being the right age to drinking. This angers Kyler and his gang, who bully Miguel out of the store, beat him up and pour his Pepto Bismal over his head, calling him Rhea. After Kyler pushes Miguel into Johnny Lawrence's car, Lawrence gets angry and orders the teens to get away from his car. However, Kyler mocks Johnny and pushes him. In retaliation, Johnny kicks Kyler in the face, and then uses Karate moves to easily beat Brucks and the rest of the group, before the police arrest him.
Brucks appears at Samantha's pool party at her house, and later at the school's Halloween party.
