* ConflictBall: There's no actual reason for Slick to oppose the heroes during Collide, except wanting to be the one to kill Jack English, but he still not only saves Jack English ''twice'', he also spends more time attacking Dirk, Terezi and Dave than he does his target.

* IdiotBall: He sees Jack English flying through the sky, comes to the conclusion that the stranger who looks exactly like him but with flashing eyes and a pegleg ''is'' Lord English and chases after him. Then he fights against Dave, Dirk and Terezi for no other reason other than the fact that he wants to be the one to kill Lord English. This is the reason he dies.

* {{Flanderization}}: While he has odd and child-like tendencies, he has shown himself to be genuinely intelligent. However, Act 6 amplifies his childish traits, making him act like a full-on {{Manchild}}.

* PassingTheTorch: PlayedForLaughs. Soon after Dave finds Bro dead, AR attempts to do this with Dave. He encourages Dave to enact justice and be rid of Jack and his crew, but due to the command console and Dave's grief making him susceptible to suggestion, he just ends up repeating what's being said without any clue as to what was going on and ultimately ignores it.
