When Richie sees one of his spoiled classmates bullying a waiter, Richie pokes the little snot with his sabre, causing coffee to spill on his shirt. Everyone laughs at him hysterically, and the waiter has an appreciative smile.
After Richie's parents go missing, Van Dough offers him a small chair in the office. Richie instead silently walks around the desk to sit in his father's chair. Even The Nostalgia Critic (who otherwise disliked the movie) thought this was awesome.
Richie halting Van Dough's downsizing and continuing his father's policies. The result: Richie's company makes record profits, much to Van Dough's anger.
Richard, despite being lost in the middle of the ocean, manages to jerry-rig a tracking device using devices like an electric razor. His device is powerful enough to attract the Dad-Link...unfortunately Van Dough and his goons are the ones who finds him and Regina.
Cadbury:Never mess with a man with sensitive teeth!
Keenbean using a robotic bee and a wash rag with superglue on it to save Richie and his friends from the Matter Replicator in his lab.
Mr. Rich from the live-action film gets a great crowning moment. The Riches are forced to open the legendary Rich Vault to Mr. Van Dough. When he does, he is shocked to find mementos of the Riches' lives, dating back to when Mr. and Mrs. Rich started dating, as opposed to insane hoarded amounts of money.
Van Dough: The money? Where is the money?! Mr. Rich:(in his best are-you-kidding-me voice) In banks, where else? Oh! And the stock market, real estate... Van Dough: No! Is this some kind of joke? (frantically searches for money) This is not right! You mean to tell me that there isn't a single gold bar, or emerald, or thousand dollar bill in this entire mountain?! Mr. Rich: Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you Lawrence, but that's not what we treasure.
Bonus points to Rich for apparently doing it all honestly. While the film obviously showcases honest from dishonest ways of acquiring wealth, the fact that Rich managed it showcases him not just as a major ace of great financial talent but also a man of major integrity.
"Mr. Van Dough, you're fired!", Which is immediately followed by Regina giving a well-deserved punch in the face. Mind you it was established that Mrs. Rich hated Van Dough before his whole scheme; she's likely been dying to do that for years. Mr. Rich certainly doesn't protest.
Richie Rich: Dad, I know how you feel about firing people, but...
Mr. Rich: Yes, son. I think in this case, we can make an exception.
