* CharacterCheck: Rusty and Monarch start the film displaying their most prominent shared flaws. The self-centeredness, the abrasive manner they treat their families, and the snarky demanding vitriol they splash onto who they perceive to be in their employ. Rusty even makes morbid jokes about Hank potentially dying in a gutter and being nonplussed at remembering how one of his clones actually did die when he ran away from home. However, Rusty begrudgingly begins to show off his longstanding standards and the modest amount of new ones he got over the course of his CharacterDevelopment since the series started. The Monarch reminds the viewer that he has very few and feels no inclination to change despite how sympathetic he can occasionally be in an episode.
--> '''The Monarch''': I can't believe we stayed for your over-the-hill rent-a-cop. Why didn't we just leave him and get the hell out of here?
--> '''Rusty''': We didn't stay for Hatred. We stayed because if we leave, the building will kill a bunch of people
--> '''The Monarch''': (scoffs) So?
--> '''Gary''': [[EvenEvilHasStandards Dude.]]
--> '''Rusty''': And that's why I'm always the hero and you're always the villain.
