Zach shows kindness to everyone at first however as the story progresses we see he is less gullible as the film goes on, for example he threatens to shoot the people who are trying to attack Tylor. This progression of becoming more hardened to the world, shows character development and progression, proving to others that he can lead and become capable of handling the world on his own one day.

Zach' shows kindness to Elanor which is not initially reciprocated as all she wants to do is get him back to the retirement home, however as the film progresses she grows to realise that he can be independent and grow.

Initially Tylor doesn't like Zach and sees him as a hindrance but as Tylor sees how people are treating him he begins to feel protective toward him, then this develops in to a relationship as the film progresses.

Goals

To help Zak get to the wrestling school (succeeded)

Friends / Allies

Zak

Eleanor
Clint/The Salt Water Redneck

Tyler is the main protagonist of The Peanut Butter Falcon. He is a a troubled thief and fisherman who helps Zak a runaway 22-year-old with Down Syndrome get to a wrestling school in North Carolina while reluctant at first he eventually warms up to Zak and forms a very close bond with him.
He was portrayed by Shia LaBeouf who also portrayed Sam Witwicky in Transformers and Mutt W ill iams in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Tyler is first seen being turned away from selling his stolen crabs at the local crab shack because he does not have a license. After a confrontation with the crabbers, he burns $12,000 worth of equipment on the docks and is pursued by the incensed miscreants Duncan and Ratboy. Tyler escapes on his aging boat, which Zak happens to be hiding on.

He discovers Zak on board and attempts to leave him behind once they reach shore. However, he witnesses a thirteen-year-old bullying Zak to jump in the water, even though he can't swim. Tyler intervenes and permits Zak to come with him, and agrees to accompany Zak to the wrestling school en route to his ultimate destination in Florida.

Duncan and Ratboy spread the word in their ongoing search for Tyler, while Eleanor Zak's caregiver searches for him. Eleanor and Tyler cross paths at a convenience store, where Tyler denies having seen Zak. During their travels, Tyler teaches Zak how to swim and fire a gun, and encourages his self-confidence. During a river crossing, they are nearly struck by a passing boat, and they encounter a blind religious man, who baptizes Zak and gives them supplies to make a raft to complete their journey down the river.

They celebrate that night by getting drunk on the beach, and Zak invents a wrestling persona for himself: The Peanut Butter Falcon. The pair had been eating peanut butter extensively because it was the one grocery item that was affordable.

The next morning, Eleanor discovers their camp, and attempts to persuade Zak to come back with her. Tyler convinces her to accompany them on their journey instead, which she agrees to do on the condition that they return to the home after reaching the wrestling school. That night, while they shelter in a seaside shack, Duncan and Ratboy burn their raft and threaten to shoot Tyler's hand. Zak uses Tyler's shotgun to defend his friends.

Eventually the three arrive in the wrestling school's town and search for Zak's favorite wrestler The Salt Water Redneck's home. They discover the school has been closed for over a decade and the Redneck, now known as Clint, is no longer a wrestler. Zak is disappointed, but shakes Clint's hand and they leave. Eleanor learns that Zak will be transferred to a recovery home for drug addicts upon return, while Tyler wants Eleanor to come with him to Florida. They are approached by Clint, now dressed as the Salt Water Redneck. Moved by Tyler's earlier speech, he agrees to take on Zak as a protégé.

Clint trains Zak, and sets him up for a staged fight against a friend, Sam. Eleanor, alarmed by the violence on display, does not want Zak to take part. Tyler and Eleanor kiss, but he uses the moment to handcuff her to a steering wheel to prevent her from intervening. A nervous Zak plays to the crowd as he enters the ring, and Sam, envious of Zak's reception, does not fight clean. Spotting Duncan and Ratboy in the crowd, Eleanor frees herself and attempts to warn Tyler as Zak overcomes his fear and throws Sam from the ring, winning the fight. Duncan strikes Tyler with a tire iron, knocking him unconscious as the fight ends.

At the hospital, Zak and Eleanor wait while Tyler is attended to. Eleanor, Zak, and the bandaged Tyler then drive to Florida to start a new life.
