Season 1
Dreamy Leroy was hatched out of a giant egg, already an adult and fully-clothed. However, a fairy named Nova accidentally sprinkled some fairydust on the egg that he was in, so Leroy was able to feel love, unlike other dwarves. It is implied that dwarves are artificial creatures, created through technology rather than from a mother.

He first appeared mourning over the "death" of Snow White, who is laying in a glass coffin. David arrives and asks them to open the coffin, to which Grumpy states that she is dead. He and his brothers eventually do, and David gives Snow one final kiss, when suddenly there is a shockwave of love and Snow wakes up. Grumpy attends the wedding, but it is interrupted by Queen Regina. Grumpy is one of the people in the crowd that avoids looking at Regina, as the legend says that looking at her is bad luck. He is also present at the meeting, where he and David think that they should fight and kill the Queen in battle, not trusting the magic wardrobe. Grumpy keeps watch at the top of the castle, and is the one that warns everyone about the Dark Curse approaching, ringing the bells.

Emma Swan meets him at the police station, both of them in a cell. She wakes up to hear Leroy whistling, he then asks, "What are you lookin' at, sister?". He and Marco argue about the joys of children. Leroy reckons they're brats, while Marco says that he would love a child, but he and wife tried for many years with no results. Leroy sarcastically tells Marco to cry him a river. Sheriff Graham lets him out.

Leroy reappears as a janitor at the hospital, after David goes missing. He is standing with Walter Dormanta and they go through security tapes and find out that David stumbled out a door which led to the woods. The two get into an argument about who let him get away, Leroy blames Walter for always sleeping on the job. Walter retaliates by saying that Leroy is always drinking at work.
