History

The Gross Sisters are three bullying sisters who go out in public demanding kids from school and anyone else unable to handle them for their money and show violent tendencies. Their parents make them work on the weekends. They had a Jamaican mother; she wears an orange floral outfit and her hair in dreadlocks with a hairclip. The remainder of the family is entirely blue, including their clothes (except the sisters, who wear black overalls). The reason why is because their family cannot afford lotion and they work in the hot sun all day.

Nubia is the middle child and the leader of the pack, considering she is the only one who can talk. Nubia is very reliant on her sisters to do her dirty work and collect the money for her, even though she treats them like garbage. Despite the abuse, Nubia is shown to secretly care for her parents and her sisters, but would never show it or admit it.

Gina is the oldest, despite being the smallest. She is mostly an untalkative girl. Gina collects money from her sister’s muggings; as a habit, she always has her hand out, even when both hands are required to do something.

Olei is the youngest, biggest, and least intelligent of the three sisters, as well as the most oppressed. Like Gina, Olei is quiet for all times. In the episode, "The Makeover", Olei got separated from her sisters and had to decide on whether to go back to hanging out with them or still hang out with Penny. For continuity's sake, she goes back to her sisters but secretly shows that she and Penny are still friends. This shows that Olei could be nice and sweet if her sisters were not so mean to her all the time.

Although they rarely get in trouble for their deeds, they do get caught in one episode. They are usually friends with Penny, but sometimes they bully her and her friends. After witnessing Penny fighting the Carver clone on national television, they build respect for her with Nubia calling Penny "hardcore". Their catchphrase is "Hands up. Cash out".

Their first names are a play of skincare products Olay, Neutrogena, and Nivea. Ironically, they have ashy and dry complexions.

Penny briefly became one of the Gross Sisters, but they kicked her out when Nubia realized that the fact that Penny was sent to boot camp makes her a real criminal instead of a bully.
