Igor's quest for glory is hampered by [[FakeUltimateHero Dr. Schadenfreude]], who has won the Evil Science Fair every year by stealing the winning invention from an actual MadScientist, and who sees Eva as his ticket not just to winning, but to taking control of the kingdom from King Malbert, who has a secret or two of his own. On top of that, Igor starts to develop feelings for Eva and begins to question the way the kingdom is run. Is being evil really their only option? And can a giant actress in a red dress really win the Evil Science Fair with showtunes?

Not seeing her when he comes in, he calls for her...and she appears at the top of the staircase, decked out in a fancy gown and practically sparkling. Igor is understandably floored.
* ShipperOnDeck: Scamper (and eventually Brain) for Igor and [[spoiler:Eva]], going to far as to outright ''force'' him to address his feelings for the lady. On several occasions. Brain even remarks that "our work here is done" when they think they've succeeded.
