* The dystopian world Overlord Mandark rules over is very creepy and depressing. The reason? In his incompetent attempt to harness the power of Dexter's Neurotomic Protocore, he set its flow to negative instead of positive, giving the ''entire population of Earth'' a case of PhlebotinumInducedStupidity (with the exception of Dexter, who was underground and thus out of its range when it activated). As the misused Core's now-negative energy slowly swept over the world, their minds gradually became numbed and addled- ''while Mandark's grew even more twisted and insane.'' With no one to oppose him, Mandark insidiously raked the earth clean for resources, hoarded all science, knowledge, and technology for himself, and strictly forbid it from everyone else- ''just so he could be the smartest person on Earth.'' As a result, the world's stuck in TheDungAges, and everyone's too mentally compromised to even ''try'' to rise up against their tormentor.

* The scene where Exec!Mandark ''publicly flogs'' poor Twelve. With a ''laser whip''. Why? ''He was '''almost''' late for work.'' Twelve’s agonized expressions and screams as he's lashed again and again are downright ''chilling.'' And what's even ''worse?'' It's implied Mandark's done this to him ''more than once,'' using the ''exact same excuse!''

* Twelve’s terror and jumpy, PTSD-like symptoms- even screaming and adopting a TroubledFetalPosition at the mere ''sound'' of Mandark's voice due the the abuse he's suffered at his hands. Was the flogging and verbal abuse really ''all'' Mandark did to him, or did he do things to Dexter that were even ''worse'' to cow the proud, willful boy genius ''that far'' into submission, and turn him into the anxiety-ridden, easily scared Twelve? And what's worse, he’s an abuse victim being ''PlayedForLaughs!''
* The dystopian world Overlord Mandark rules over is very creepy and depressing. The reason? Mandark used Dexter's invention to effectively ''lobotomize'' the ''entire population of Earth'' (with the exception of Dexter, who was underground and thus out of its range when it activated), turning the whole planet into TheDungAges and hoarding all science, knowledge and technology to himself- ''just so he could be the smartest person in the world.''

* In a roundabout way, the fact that Creator/EddieDeezen retains his usual stilted delivery even as Mandark becomes more and more evil. It's a reminder that yes, this is the same character [[FromNobodyToNightmare who was once a harmless rival]].
** How about the fact that the reason Mandark became as bad as he did was because the idiot used the Neurotomic Protocore the ''wrong way'', which ended up twisting his mind and turning him into the power mad FatBastard of the BadFuture. He was already a dick to start with, it just made him insane on top of it.

* Future Mandark's fate. His FatBastard body violently mutates, causing all his fat to shoot up into his cranium, making his whole body EXPLODE, leaving only his brain. It's one of the worst cases of NauseaFuel in the show's history.

* The opening scene is somewhat scary- dramatic string music blasts while Mandark summons the huge, black wild thorn briars in his lab in front of a bright white background.
