MePad, labeled The Assistant, was a deuteragonist who had worked as MePhone4's former assistant in Inanimate Insanity II. He was voiced by Justin Chapman.
Personality[]
When first introduced, MePad was a docile and tranquil assistant to MePhone4 who worked on a relatively professional level. His primary purpose was to assist and serve MePhone4 in any situation, which he strongly abides by, including the showcasing of the elimination votes.
MePad was respectful and well-mannered, commonly referring to his boss as "sir", and would occasionally address contestants using "Mr." or "Ms.". At first, MePad believed Toilet, MePhone4's other assistant, should also behave professionally in his workplace. In turn, Toilet makes it very clear that he didn't like MePad's presence and was jealous of the attention he got from MePhone4, though MePad didn't seem to notice Toilet's hatred and showed no animosity. In "Theft and Battery", MePad explained to Toilet that he viewed the two as equals and didn't consider himself superior, sparking mutual respect between them.
As a Meeple Product, MePad could lack an understanding of general emotion and was usually seen expressionless. Despite this, MePad had developed a sense of wit and sarcasm, presumably from MePhone4, as first seen in "Cooking for the Grater Good" when commenting on Trophy's elimination and in "A Kick in the Right Direction" when noting Dough's repetitive nature. In "Kick the Bucket", MePad reassured to MePhone that he "can't feel anything". However, he did show general concern, for instance, when Lightbulb coughed while attempting to play the saxophone.
MePad was very clever and intelligent, offering advice and solutions to MePhone4's problems. Due to his high levels of intelligence and observant nature, MePad could get caught up in analyzing little details and functional marvels while more important matters are at hand. While observing the competition, MePad had gradually worried and expressed concern for contestants' safety, particularly Marshmallow. His respect for contestants had challenged his professional side, as he allowed Marshmallow to leave the show's parameters despite breaking the rules and later lied about her whereabouts.
MePad tried to see the good in others, like Taco as he tried to convince her that there was still time for her to start again in Truth or Flare. In the challenge with the final four where Taco tried to get them to quit, which failed, when MePhone4 didn't recover her after she dies, MePad eventually snapped at him and forced him to recover Taco. He told everyone that he was hoping that she would convince them to leave the game. Finally, MePad quit his job as an assistant for Inanimate Insanity as he and Taco teleported away.
After MePad's resignation, he and Taco snuck into Hotel OJ in The Reality of the Situation, so that she could apologize to Pickle, who died by MePhoneX. Unfortunately, it didn't work out too well. MePhone4 asks MePad to help him as he thinks Cobs is trying to get him to stop ignoring his calls and is killing the contestants in response. MePad was reluctant as he resigned, but eventually agreed when MePhone4 told him that he should do it for the contestants instead of doing it for him. MePad brought Knife and Suitcase over to Pickle's room for the final challenge to defeat Cobs. He stayed in the room with Taco to comfort her after Pickle's death.
Death[]
MePad died after sacrificing his life to save both MePhone4 and the contestants in Objects in Mirror. He went in front of MePhone4 right before he was to get stabbed by Steve Cobs. He will be missed.

At the time of MePad's first appearance in "Marsh on Mars", MePad mentions that he has quad 4-dual processors, while iPads don't have them yet. MePad also says he has "the new A6 chip" like real iPads, while it should have been an M6 chip like MePhone4S's M5 chip.
