Purple Monkey

Freeze frame of P. Monkey from Bree's video blog.

Purple Monkey aka P. Monkey is a hand-puppet featured in many of Bree's videos. It is widely available at Target stores. Purple Monkey first appears in First Blog / Dorkiness Prevails on Bree's bed for a brief moment when Bree is shown spinning around during the Gnarls Barkley song montage. Episode 2, Purple Monkey is dedicated to introducing Purple Monkey, where she is described as being from Texas, not liking the fact she's a puppet, and as someone who helps Bree out.

Purple Monkey seems to have gender issues as it has been referred to by Bree as both she and he, though mostly as she. In the video "Don't Trust The Authorities" P. Monkey is called a "Wanker" By Gemma When she said he/she could not swim.

Connection to Lucy

Lucy is a character later introduced in the series who is also somebody who helps Bree. Towards the beginning of the series, P. Monkey plays a very frequent role and is Bree's helper. However, in the later episodes as the ceremony approaches, P. Monkey appears less and less and Lucy is now called the helper. Bree makes the point of asking Lucy if it is okay for her to have stuffed animal friends (ex: P. Monkey). Lucy rephrases Bree's words by referring to them as "imaginary friends", and says they are a positive thing for people to have because they can talk to them when there is no one else around.
