** The character is a victim of the Universe itself, who frames him up against the CosmicPlaything, who wants revenge on him. However, the CosmicPlaything only triumphs when he is disciplined, and always fails when he is emotional. Revenge is an emotional activity, so he only could torment TheChewToy, but never really kill him. In other words, he complies with the RuleOfDrama: All the things that happens to TheChewToy are ''bad enough to advance the plot, but never bad enough to kill him.'' [[note]]This example happens at the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' episode ''[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesTheClockKing The Clock King]]'' [[/note]]
