The Red Man is motivated by his plot to cause chaos across Paper City, who has an extremely enigmatic personality and appearance. Lifty is a robot who is the head of the Robot Union who, at first, starts off as a GoodAllAlong helper towards Flint and Ted to stop Skinner's plans to revive Robbie with a relays before revealing to be EvilAllAlong who is actually the mastermind behind it. Also, while the Red Man works alone and is largely a threat to Paper City's citizens, Lifty hires Barry and Harold to her own employ to do her dirty deeds, but at the same time she's a threat to the robots she gutted out for their relays. The Red Man is also an AntiVillain who represents Amber's repressed memories, while Lifty is a BitchInSheepsClothing who is corrupt and self-serving, being non-hesitant to betray Flint and Ted once Skinner was put behind bars.
