Personality[]
Garrett was abused by his father and just like his sister, he was raised to hate outcasts.
Despite his hatred of outcasts, Garrett developed an obsessive crush on Morticia Addams, stalking her and trying to woo her.
When learning of Morticia being in love with Gomez, Garrett became overcome with jealousy and along with wanting to please his father, fell in a murderous rage where he attempts to kill Gomez.
Overall, Garrett was a violent man gaslighted into hating outcasts where his obsession with Morticia and making his father proud ultimately led to his death at the hands of the woman he loved who belonged to the type of people he ironically was taught to despise.
