Canon[]
Smurfs: The Lost Village[]
In the film’s opening, as various Smurfs comment on Smurfette, Hefty expresses his admiration of her. Later, when Smurfette visits Brainy’s lab and finds Hefty there, Hefty greets her excitedly. Apparently embarrassed by his reaction, Hefty calms himself and addresses Smurfette again in a deeper, “cooler” tone of voice as he tries to act casual. He later chastises Brainy after the nerdy Smurf makes a less than tactful reference to Smurfette’s unusual origins.
Hefty then suggests that the three and Clumsy go Smurfboarding, a suggestion Smurfette enthusiastically endorses. The group are soon engaged in this sport, and Hefty watches and comments admiringly when Smurfette goes parasailing on her run. He becomes concerned, however, when Smurfette flies towards a wall over which lies the Forbidden Forest. Hefty leads the others to go help her, and asks Smurfette if she’s all right when they find her.
When Smurfette is abducted by Gargamel’s vulture Monty, Hefty is immediately alarmed and leads the others after her. They succeed in rescuing her, and then return home to Smurf Village. Having learned of the existence of another village of Smurfs, the group are eager to seek it out but are forbidden by Papa Smurf. To the surprise of Hefty and the others, Smurfette appears to submit to this, and the others follow her lead. However, Hefty does start to question Smurfette about her sudden odd behavior.
When Smurfette departs the village in secret, she hears the noise of others and immediately guesses that Hefty and the others have followed her. Hefty explains that they realized what she intended, and tries to warn Smurfette against entering the Forbidden Forest. When she remains adamant, Hefty insists that the rest of them will be accompanying her. Smurfette briefly protests, feeling that it’s too much to ask of her friends. Hefty replies simply that they’re doing this because they want to, and Smurfette expresses gratitude to the group.
Hefty is alarmed when Smurfette is attacked by a flower. Later, the friends find themselves lost and separated in some tunnels, and Hefty calls out for Smurfette. The Smurfs are able to hear each other, and Hefty supports Smurfette’s call for action over Brainy’s suggestion of caution. After the group escapes and are traveling through the Forbidden Forest, Smurfette comments on the beauty of the area. Hefty makes a subtle comment about Smurfette’s own beauty, and pushes back when Brainy complains.
The friends later discuss the other Smurfs, with Smurfette reiterating her determination to warn them about Gargamel. Hefty, in turn, renews his pledge to help her, while also suggesting that he and Smurfette are closer than their other teammates. When the group encounter Gargamel and the wizards is left floundering in a river, Hefty insists on helping and Smurfette supports his proposal. Unfortunately, Gargamel chooses to betray them all after being saved.
After the group washes up on a beach, Brainy immediately accosts Hefty for his actions. Smurfette defends Hefty, and Brainy promptly expands his tirade to include her. Hefty defends Smurfette in turn, only for her to protest. This surprises Hefty, who worries that Smurfette is also upset with him. As the argument escalates, Hefty prepares to fight Brainy, with Smufette protesting as he does so.
The argument is interrupted by a group of strange Smurfs, and Hefty is alarmed when they pull Smurfette out from among her friends. After the group are welcomed into Smurfy Grove, Hefty tries to impress Smurfette with some archery. However, he later becomes concerned when one of the girl Smurfs suggests that Smurfette should stay with them. Hefty defends begins urging Smurfette that they should go back to their own village, but she hesitates.
When Smurfstorm, having learned of Smurfette’s origins, accuses her of leading Gargamel towards Smurfy Grove, Hefty speaks up in Smurfette’s defense. Smurfette tries to soothe him, feeling that she has indeed unwittingly assisted Gargamel. During Gargamel’s attack on Smurfy Grove, Hefty leaps between Smurfette and a magical freezing ball, much to her dismay. After Gargamel immobilizes all the other Smurfs, Hefty voices his hopelessness to Smurfette.
Left behind by Gargamel, Smurfette apologizes to an image of Hefty and the others made by Brainy’s ladybug Snappy. Snappy then plays back recordings of Hefty and Smurfette’s voices, helping Smurfette find the resolve to go to her friends’ rescue. Hefty later calls her name when she arrives at Gargamel’s home. After Smurfette trucks Gargamel into using his newfound magic on her, which she begins to absorb, Hefty calls out in encouragement at the realization of her plan.
After Gargamel is defeated and all the Smurfs freed, Hefty goes looking for Smurfette in the crowd. To his horror, her actions have caused her to revert to her original form of a lump of lifeless clay. Following Papa Smurf’s fruitless attempt to find a way of bringing Smurfette back to life, Hefty picks up the clay and carries it back to Smurf Village. He then joins the ring of Smurfs from both villages as they mourn Smurfette.
Fortunately, Smurfette is revived by the magic of the two villages’ worth of Smurfs, who are initially oblivious to this event. Hefty is the second Smurf to realize that Smurfette has returned, and he quickly rushes to her. He picks Smirfette up and spins around with her, puts her down again, and then immediately seizes her in a hug that lifts her off her feet. Putting her down, Hefty pleads that she’ll never scare him like this again. Smiling, Smurfette takes one of his hands and solemnly promises that she won’t.
Hefty joins the other Smurfs in celebrating Smurfette’s return. In a nod to the opening of the film, he declares that “Smurfette can be anything she wants to be.” He and several other Smurfs later throw Smurfette up in the air as they celebrate, and he and Brainy carry her on their shoulders. Later, when Snappy “photographs” all the Smurfs, Hefty and Smurfette are side by side.
