Background

Pappagallo is the leader of The Refinery Settlers in Australia.

During the events of The Road Warrior (1981) played by Michael Preston

Max drives to the refinery and Big Rebecca cries out when she sees him carrying Nathan. Zetta yells to Derek to have a stretcher ready and Big Rebecca starts blaming Pappagallo for Nathan's injuries and Curmudgeon says he warned them that Pappagallo's plan was madness. Pappagallo starts questioning Max and Quiet Man walks up and asks about Victim and Max tells him Victim is dead. Max mentions the deal he had with Nathan and Warrior Woman tells Pappagallo to give Max nothing and Curmudgeon calls Max a parasite. Timbo attends to Nathan, but he dies and Pappagallo tells Max he only had a contract with Nathan and so he will get nothing. As Max is being kicked out of the refinery, his vehicle is rolled inside and Mechanic comments on it being the last of the V8's and shows Max the trigger mechanism he managed to take off. Dog runs out of the vehicle and starts chewing at Mechanic. A lookout yells The Humungus is coming back and everyone scrambles to secure the refinery. The Toadie introduces The Humungus who chastises The Refinery Settlers for attempting a puny plan. Defiant Victim yells to give Humungus nothing and Wez runs up and headbutts him. The Feral Kid throws his metal boomerang at Wez, who ducks it and when The Feral Kid throws it again, it hits Golden Youth in the head, killing him. The Humungus tells The Refinery Settlers if they leave everything, he will give them safe passage out of the wasteland, and they have one day to decide. After The Humungus leaves, Quiet Man shoots an arrow and yells they will never walk away. Big Rebecca wants to accept The Humungus' offer, while Warrior Woman and Zetta don't. Curmudgeon offers to speak with The Humungus and Pappagallo thinks their sacrifices would be for nothing if they walked away. Warrior Woman says she is staying, while the majority of the others throw down their weapons and The Captain's Girl says they get weaker while Humungus gets stronger. Max whistles and tells them he knows where a semi is that can haul the fuel tanker. Max has a meeting with Pappagallo and the other leaders of The Refinery Settlers and makes them an offer, he gets the semi and they give him back his vehicle and all of the fuel he can take and Papagallo agrees to the deal. Max is given some diesel and he and Dog start to walk back towards the semi he saw. Max returns with a semi, and the refinery is attacked by The Humungus' Gang. Pappagallo is shot in the leg by a crossbow bolt and falls to the ground. After they fight off The Humungus' Gang,he tells Zetta to get everyone organized so they can leave that night. Mechanic's Assistant relays the damage to the semi to Pappagallo who tells Mechanic he has twelve hours to fix the semi. Pappagallo tries to get Max to drive the semi, and after Max refuses insults Max, who punches him. As Max leaves, Zetta sees him leave and suggests to Pappagallo that they take his vehicle, but Pappagallo refuses and says Max is an honorable man. The nect day, Pappagallo tells everyone the plan and where to rendezvous. Max offers to drive the semi, and after initially refusing, Pappagallo agrees to it and hands Max a kerchief full of shotgun shells. The Feral Kid manages to sneak onto the semi, which also has Warrior Woman, Zetta and Mechanic riding on it. Max drives out of the refinery followed by Pappagallo in his own vehicle and The Gyro Captain in his gyrocopter. A battle erupts between Max and those in the semi and The Humungus and his Gang. Pappagallo drives next to the semi and tells The Feral Kid to jump to him, but is killed by a trident thrown by The Humungus.
