* ScareEmStraight: Kyle ends up invoking this by bonding the eraser to Fanboy's hand to scare him into not destroying the town anymore and show him the consequences of such. Said consequences are enough to reduce him to a screaming and crying frenzy -- and he winds up demonstrating them on ''[[HoistByHisOwnPetard Kyle himself]].''

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Poor Kyle had no idea about any consequences that would occur against him once he literally attached it to Fanboy; he forgot to mention any''body'' he touches will be erased, and since the eraser is sentient, it keeps taking over every single one of Fanboy's actions when he tries to get Kyle's wand which eventually leads to him erasing it. Best seen when he struggles to use his free hand to get the wand, but then the hand with the eraser rises up before he fights against it.
