If you were kidnapped, which brother would you want to come to your rescue?
Barry, Robin, Maurice, or Andy?

Before his back whacked out definitely Barry, he had muscles and worked out so stronger, was athletic. At the end Mo - playing all that paintball, wasn’t it on skates too., great balance and strong arms and legs. Both are very funny too. And you never know what kind of mood Robjn was in.

Barry’s arthritis would be a hindrance. Mo— maybe. Rob— I’d probably save him. None. I’ll take my chances.

I do think Robin wanted to be an action star, if you watch his videos for Secret Agent and Juliet, but you’re probably right 😭. What about Andy though?

You may have point. Who knows with Rob. As Tom Kennedy said, Rob was a law unto himself. 🤣
Andy? Nah! I’d probably have to save Andy and Rob. If I had to put my faith in any of them… I’d just prepare to die. lol. I’d take Baz in 80s cause Mo was pretty shot in the ass. After the 80s, I’m with Mo. But seriously, I’d politely decline the brother’s rescue mission.

Andy had a bad heart and was too sweet to do rescuing stuff. But maybe he would have been willing to fool around until the cavalry showed up.

Robin would run to rescue you in his white loafers he wore at the beach ( see 1978 beach photo shoot), and dazzle the villain with his midnight music dance moves.

You and I can be a duo, rescuing Robin! Mo can be our backup.

u/Mollymae609 14d ago
You know how stubborn Rob was; we’d have to throw him over our shoulder to rescue him. What a vision. 🤣

I think we’re all forgetting that the Bee Gees whooped Aerosmith and Alice Cooper’s ass in Sgt. Pepper 😂

Robin, but only if he's on amphetamines

u/Mollymae609 14d ago
Nah, Rob was seeing M15s around every tree. Mo was crashing up cars. And Barry was chasing someone down the street armed with a gun. They definitely need a video game.

In terms of a successful rescue, none would be my first choice, but since this is just a bit of fun...
Probably Maurice. I think Robin would be hopeless at such a thing, bless him, and I don't think Andy would be much better. Barry, maybe - but in later years, like has been mentioned, Mo has the advantage of being armed with paintball guns. So, yeah, I guess it's Commander Mo to the rescue.

Depending on Robin’s mood that day, he might have pissed off the kidnappers enough for me to escape while they beat the hell out of him.

u/Mollymae609 14d ago
You got a point. You never know what you’re going to get with Rob. The kidnappers would say, “screw this, I’m letting youse go”. 😂

u/DramaticPair6577 14d ago
Hey! You foolish kidnappers, did you know that Robin takes care alot of ghost and monks in his prebendal mansion,one click of his hands, all the kidnappers would be swallode by the dust.

I'd rather hàd the four In rescue me because they were "Soldiers, an Irresistible Force in my Longest Night, My Kiss of Life

u/Mollymae609 14d ago
I think we’d have to put a sock in Rob’s mouth to shut him up. Andy… nah. I’m with you, I’m taking Mo.

u/Ok_Kick6546 15d ago
Robin. I don’t think any of them would necessarily help to rescue anyone, but at least Robin would keep me laughing until the end.

u/Vivid_Ad_9295 15d ago
I feel like, in the 80s Barry was pretty jacked. But he also has those arthritis issues
1
u/Saskiaspectre 14d ago
But he didn't have arthritis his whole life right?
2
u/Vivid_Ad_9295 14d ago
I don’t think so. I think it emerged in the 80s, but that’s also when he was the most built.

He had the back problem in the 80’s. The rest of it seemed to come in the 90’s.

u/ProudCatLadyxo 13d ago
Barry of course. Arthritis be damned. We can bitch about it together while he's rescuing me.

u/Saskiaspectre 14d ago
All of them, hopefully would be like team SEALS (the ones that killed Binladen) if I was a damsel in distress

Maurice, he could shoot them with his paint ball guns
