1* In "My Treehouse," Robbie's scheme of the week is attempting to steal or win a trophy, the prize for making the best treehouse. When he first attempts to swipe it, Miss Busybody, who generally interacts the least with him, scares him off by yelling "Leave it alone!"
2** The ending to the episode has him successfully steal the trophy, though it breaks apart soon after.
3* Miss Busybody answering phones at top speed in "The Laziest Town" is set to a pastiche of the ''Film/ChariotsOfFire'' theme, making something ridiculous also really cool.
4* Robbie gets an accidental moment of awesome in "The Laziest Town." Robbie spends the entire episode determined not to move and make [=LazyTown=] the official laziest town on Earth, while everyone else is moving around at top speed. At the very last second, Sportacus finally runs out of energy and can't move anymore. Cue Robbie performing a victory dance, which raises the town's energy meter just enough to avoid the designation.
5* "Records Day" has Robbie attempt to kill Sportacus via soccer ball catapult, leaving him dangling by one hand off of the airship platform miles in the air. The kids and the mayor work together to save him, using their sports skills to have a soccer ball knock an apple off a tree and get the apple to Stephanie, who hits it with a baseball bat so hard it reaches the airship and Sportacus. Sportacus pulls himself up and into the airship just in time to stop it from crashing into a house.
6* "Soccer Sucker" has Robbie order a soccer-playing robot that's so good at soccer it beats Sportacus 7 to 1. When it rampages out of control, Sportacus teams up with all the other kids to beat it, complete with an epic slow-motion TeamShot at the start of the rematch.
7* "Secret Agent Zero" has one of Robbie's most successful plans, as he fakes his way to being elected Mayor, outlaws sportscandy and sports equipment, traps Sportacus, and endangers Mayor Meanswell and his favorite flower with a trap.
8* In "Robbie's Greatest Misses," Robbie goes through a list of failed inventions, then gets the idea to use all of them on Sportacus at once. Despite being caught off-guard, Sportacus manages to dodge and defeat every one, then lifts up a fallen wall to save himself and Robbie from being crushed.
9* "[=LazyTown=] Goes Digital" has Robbie wire everything in town to control it at will, including Sportacus's airship. When he realizes the danger and that the ship could easily eject him, Sportacus readies a super-durable yo-yo string so when he does fall, he's able to break it and land safely.
10* In "Friends Forever," the airship is out of control with Sportacus and Robbie dangling from it, unable to climb in to stabilize it. Ziggy is able to throw a rope high enough to reach the airship, which works initially but soon breaks. When Sportacus needs sportscandy to save the day, Stephanie uses a hammer and a carnival game to hit an apple high enough to reach him.
11* In "Dancing Dreams" Robbie locks Sportacus in a trunk, ties it off with helium balloons, and is put in danger when it flies into the air with him on it and hits plane level. Mayor Meanswell shows off his impressive piloting skills when he catches Robbie with his plane, while Stephanie ejects from her seat onto the trunk and is able to rescue Sportacus. Sportacus then uses the trunk's extra compartments as makeshift plane wings to land safely.
12* In "Roboticus," Robbie orders a robot superhero to do everything Sportacus can do but better--and then start destroying everyone's sports equipment once his position as town hero is secure. When Sportacus challenges him to a race alongside the kids to determine [=LazyTown=]'s future, Robbie puts them all in danger and traps Sportacus in a pit blocked by his bulldozer. Despite the delay in rescuing himself and stopping to save everyone along the way, Sportacus still wins.
13* "Little Pink Riding Hood" has Sportacus incapacitated, Robbie dangling on the airship platform, and the airship itself on a crash course with Pixel's house. Pixel uses a flying drone to drop grapes into Sportacus's mouth, but the airship is rocking too much to aim well. Stephanie uses a rope to hold down ''the entire airship'' long enough for Pixel to deliver the sportscandy so Sportacus can stop the crash.
14* "The Purple Panther Part 2" has the only time in the series where Sportacus is able to pull himself out of a sugar meltdown on his own and get an apple to rescue himself.
15* The end of "The Blue Knight" has Sportacus temporarily downed; the only way to help is for Ziggy to retrieve the Blue Knight's sword, which everyone else had tried and failed to do. Using an inspirational speech from Sportacus as motivation, Ziggy successfully claims the sword and helps save the day.
16* The cold open of "Let's Go to the Moon" has Sportacus hit a baseball ''to the Moon''.
17* "Princess Stephanie" has Stephanie trapped in a castle against her will. Her plan to escape is to trick Robbie by giving an extremely detailed description of a cake she wants to bake, saying it would take ''years'' to eat, then saying she wants it ready in only 10 minutes, forcing him to let her go to look for ingredients.
18* "Robbie's Dream Team" has the only time Robbie successfully captures and incapacitates Sportacus by posing as an old lady crossing the street, giving him a sugar apple as thanks, and locking him in a cage in his lair once he falls into a sugar meltdown. The only reason his plan to shoot him out of town in a cannon fails is because his henchmen fall asleep on guard duty and the kids are able to get Sportacus an apple.
19** When Sportacus regains his strength, he convinces Robbie's minions to let him out in exchange for teaching them sports, but they note the cage is locked. Sportacus promptly karate-chops the lock in half.
20* The climax of "Mystery Of The Pyramid" shows one of Sportacus's greatest feats of strength, as he uses a grappling hook to lift up an entire pyramid to make a boulder blocking the exit roll backwards.
21* This [[https://youtu.be/ejzQk7IHYrs?t=452 live show]] highlight reel has an epic moment from a kid in the audience, who's dressed like Sportacus. When Robbie gives Sportacus a sugar apple, the audience member is chosen to give Stephanie a real apple to save him. The kid then backflips away, leaving Robbie flabbergasted and exclaiming that there's two Sportacuses.
