* EvilCounterpart: The villain of the episode is essentially a version of Eugene without his morality. Both of them are "men of science" and initially want to study the baby (who happens to be a genius) to make advances in their scientific projects. But Eugene ultimately realizes that it's more important that the baby be safe and happy than that he finishes his robot, while the villain never gets this.

Added DiffLines:

* GuiltInducedNightmare: Eugene tries to use the baby to make a breakthrough (in relatively harmless ways), despite Connie's protests that he needs to remember this is a small person, not just a test subject. Upon falling asleep, Eugene dreams that his artificial intelligence achieved sentience. While initially ecstatic, he's horrified when the thing demands the baby so that it can fill in some remaining gaps.
* OpinionChangingDream: Eugene has a nightmare based off Connie's protests about the way he's treating the baby. He wakes up screaming and starts treating the baby in a much friendlier way.


Added DiffLines:

* TokenGoodTeammate: One of the scientist's subordinates actually had a conscience. Upon finding out what he had planned for the baby, she took him and left him on the doorstep at Whit's End.

Eugene has been struggling with a robot he's making, and when a baby is dropped off at White's End, he is determined to study him.
!!This episode contains examples of the following tropes:
* BlatantLies: At the end of the episode, Eugene says some clothes he sent to the baby's parents were "just something off the rack", but the photo reveals that it's a miniature version of Eugene's outfit.
* BrainyBaby: The episode involves Eugene finding a genius baby and wanting to study him for an {{AI}} he had been building. It turns out that the BigBad also wants to study him.
* TheDiaperChange: Eugene freaks out when he realizes the baby he's watching needs a diaper change and finally caves to Dylan's constant questions as to whether he should "go get Connie."

Both of them are "men of science" and initially want to study the baby (who happens to be a genius) to make advances in their scientific projects. But Eugene ultimately realizes that it's more important that the baby be safe and happy than that he finishes his robot, while the villain never gets this.
* GoodIsOldFashioned: During the confrontation, he BigBad calls Eugene's morals "outdated" -- because kidnapping a baby to experiment on him ForScience is ''so'' advanced.
* PapaWolf: Eugene becomes protective of his charge and ends up fighting to protect him from an unscrupulous scientist.
* TemptingFate: Eugene responds to Connie's warnings that he'd better take his responsibility to the infant he found on the doorstep seriously with "What could be the least bit hard about babysitting?"...and soon he has to deal with the baby crying, spattering him with food, and other things he is not expecting.
* UnflinchingWalk: After Eugene's robot PLATO is unleashed on the bad guys, he walks away, paying no attention to the maze collapsing behind him.
