* BrokenPedestal: His unpleasant trip with his hovering throne last episode has clearly Zordrak ''very'' bitter with Urpgor and his inventions, wasting no time firing him when the Nightmare Stone proves capable of doing his job. Urpgor's betrayal leaves Zordrak dependent on him once again, though he remains far more antipathetic towards his schemes compared to Season One.

* MacguffinDeliveryService: An inadvertant case, after Urpgor steals the Nightmare Stone, he unwittingly opens the Noops' cell, leading Rufus to accidentally knock him out and leave the stone literally next to his lap to take. Not that this bothered Urpgor much, since he wanted the stone rid of in the first place.
