History Recap / MonkieKidS2E0RevengeOfTheSpiderQueen

* HeelFaceTurn: Subverted with Red Son and DBK. Even after helping to save the city and as Mei puts it “did real good hero work", Red Son adamantly asserts he is still a villain and was just in it to rescue his father, but Mei and MK(the former especially) believe that he has some more heroic qualities than he cares to admit. DBK, while still the angry evil king everyone knows him as, also ends up teaming with the heroes to save the day, and even protects MK from the explosion resulting from the Spider Mech being destroyed. Even though they aren’t good guys, it would seem that the DBK family has given up on being overarching villains and has now established an amity with the heroes.

* FireForgedFriends: Mei and Red Son. While initially hostile towards one another, with Mei not trusting Red Son and and the latter in turn talking down to her as a “peasant”, the two end up establishing a somewhat friendly relationship by the end of the episode -- Mei coming to see some heroic qualities in Red Son while he denies it but does come to respect her, even going out of his way to look out for her during the battle with Spider Queen.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: After Mei yanks Red Son back from going off on his own she bites him on the hand and as the others start discussing their plan he's still swinging her in circles trying to get her off.

* VillainsActHeroesReact: Red Son is the one to come up with a plan to create an antidote to Spider Queen’s vemon and stop her, which the heroes agree to help him out on for the sake of saving the world.

* WellDoneSonGuy: Downplayed. DBK lowkey expresses pride at his son's accomplishment by calling him out loud "son", much to the latter's joy.

* BefriendingTheEnemy: Mei and MK come to the conclusion that Red Son might actually make a better hero than he does a villain and both decide to encourage those qualities out of him, much to his annoyance and vehement denial.

* GreaterScopeVillain: Even though Spider Queen is the BigBad of this particular special, her success ''and'' defeat was all a carefully calculated plan by the Lady Bone Demon, who established herself as the REAL threat, biding her time under the guise of serving Spider Queen.

* BlantantLies: When Huntsman and Syntax show up to inform Spider Queen that they failed to capture Red Son, the Demon Bull King assumes he'd actually been captured and writes him off as worthless. Once he learns Red Son ''did'' escape, he proudly claims he never doubted him for a second.

* PapaWolf: DBK, even though he’s initially as cold towards Red Son as he’s always been, shows by the end of the episode that, deep down, he does care for him, becoming enraged at the idea of being too weak to save him from Spider Queen, and actually acknowledges him as his son.

* EnemyMine: [[spoiler: Red Son is forced to go to MK's Team for help after the Spider Queen kidnaps his father. At first MK is reluctant but eventually relents and lets Red Son help them.]]
* HeelFaceTurn: Averted. [[spoiler: Red Son isn't anymore good or evil as he was before but Mei and possibly MK seem to believe that he is being a hero by helping them, unaware that he is just helping them to get his father back, to the point where Mei says Red Son is "amazing" and MK says that "he is going though a hero streak" before Red Son yells at them that he is evil]].
