* BaitAndSwitch: As the two Reggies try to [[ItMakesSenseInContext out-nice each other]], one Reggie whispers something in the other's ear, causing the latter to get mad and punch the first one in the gut. The aliens take the aggressive Reggie while the remaining one is sent back to Earth...revealing himself as the ''real'' Reggie. The real Reggie told his robo-double that if the robot was the ''real'' nice guy, he would let throw the fight.

* ProperlyParanoid: Archie becomes very suspicious over how Reggie has turned a 180 and decides to prove that this Reggie is a robot. It takes three tries but he eventually figures out that he was correct.

* OuthumblingEachOther: Reggie and a robot duplicate of him compete over which of them is nicer, a rather daunting task considering Reggie is a {{Jerkass}} while the robot is a NiceGuy. After several minutes of playing nice, Reggie eventually wins by telling the robot if it was really the nicest, it would let him win.

* TooGoodToBeTrue: Reggie states this after Veronica was ripped off for a designer dress at a low cost (it's a doll-size dress with designer tags). This also turns out to be this episode's Aesop.

Reggie's obnoxiousness, even when giving good advice about scams, repels everyone. Then he's kidnapped by aliens and asked to help with a robot double to replace him. When Reggie is asked about his personality, he gives a completely inaccurate rendition, leaving the robot with an eternally helpful nice guy attitude which makes Archie instantly suspicious. Can he prove that this Reggie is too good to be true?
!!This episode includes examples of the following tropes:
* BeQuietNudge: When Reggie takes offense to being insulted while Archie is trying to come up with a plan to save everyone, Archie kicks him in the shin to make him temporarily quiet.
* DivingSave: The Reggie-bot leaps to push Archie out of the way when he accidentally walks into the path of a truck. Archie is abashed and ready to admit he was wrong...until he sees exposed metal.
* FaceRevealingTurn: After the Reggie-bot pushes Archie out of the way of a truck, he turns his face to reveal that half of the latex skin got ripped off, revealing the metal skeleton.
* ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne: When the alien leader describes the real Reggie as an "obnoxious, self-centered, petty little creep", he only takes offense to being called "little."
* IWantMyMommy: Reggie is whimpering for his mother when the others arrive on the spaceship.
* NiceGuy: The robot lookalike of Reggie. The climax features the robot and Reggie trying to out-nice each other and Reggie winning because he tells the robot that if he really ''was'' that nice, he'd let Reggie win.
* NonSequiturThud: When the aliens turn up the power on the mind-reading machine, Reggie first shakes his head, moaning, and then mutters that he doesn't like butterscotch cookies.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Reggie instantly turning into a nice guy is enough to make Archie suspicious.
* RoboticReveal: First, Archie uses a magnet on the Reggie-bot and it sticks to his chest, but it's because the robot has a cookie tray on him that he was going to give to Betty. Then, Archie tosses a bucket of water on him, but the robot senses it and bends over just in time, leaving Veronica soaking wet. Last, Archie is almost run over by a truck and the robot pushes him out of the way...but half of the robot's face got scraped off.
* ShoutOut: The sci-fi nerd the aliens have captive in the beginning drops references to ''Franchise/StarTrek'', ''Franchise/StarWars'', ''Film/TheDayTheEarthStoodStill'', ''Series/MorkAndMindy'' and other works about aliens.
* SpotTheImposter: Invoked by Archie. Initially, the alien commander wants to use a machine to see which Reggie has the metal skeleton, but Archie comments that a real man/alien wouldn't need machines. The alien falls for it. Reggie wins by playing nice and then suggesting to the robot that it would be nice to let him win.
* YoureJustJealous: The girls accuse Archie of claiming the nice Reggie is an imposter because he's jealous of the time they're spending with him. While Archie might be jealous, he's also right.
