14	!!Now loading tropes:
15
16	* BadBadActing:
17	-->'''Mr. B:''' Hey, girl-kid! Don't just stand there. Read your lines.\
18	'''Numbuh 3:''' (In a very stilted tone) Oh no, It's Homeworko. The robot who doesn't want kids to do their homework. And he's about to... knock me out with one of his terrifying claws.
19	* BerserkButton: Despite looking and dressing like one (sans the suit), Mr. B hates the word "baby", regardless of whether the phrase is used towards him or not.
20	* TheDiaperChange: After going into a short tantrum about [[BerserkButton being called a baby]] by the KND, Mr. B accidentally wets himself. His client (and mother) proceeds to change him in front of the [=KND=] as they introduce themselves.
21	* {{Foreshadowing}}: See SequelHook below.
22	* GooGooGetup: Justified since Mr. B ''is'' a baby, but still lampshaded by the [=KND=] when they first meet him.
23	-->'''Numbuh 5:''' Check it out, a talking baby.\
24	'''Mr. B:''' [[BerserkButton I am not a baby! I am a man! A man!]]\
25	'''Numbuh 1:''' ''(bewildered)'' A man who wears diapers?\
26	'''Mr. B:''' [[SarcasmMode Jump to conclusions why don't you?!]]
27	* LaserGuidedKarma: Or rather "Karma-Guided Laser". For using the KND's satellite for nefarious purposes, the KND trick Mr. B into standing in the path of his baby ray and becoming a ''real'' baby (mentally as well as physically).
28	* MirrorsReflectEverything: Numbuh 1 uses his sunglasses (which are like mirrors if you wanna get technical) to reflect Mr. B's baby ray.
29	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Numbuh 1 finds nothing good about an age-changing cigar and chucks it outside and into the hands of the DCFDTL instead of keeping it in the treehouse for safe-keeping. Let's just say that this ''really'' bites him in the ass.
30	* OnlyOneFindsItFun: Numbuh 3 seems to be the only one enjoying performing.
31	* OnlySaneMan: Numbuh 4 was against the idea of the TV show from the beginning and was the first to storm off the set.
32	* PottyFailure: Mr. B gets so angry that he... uh...
33	-->'''Mr. B:''' I have ''had it'' with you stu-\
34	''[sloshing noise is heard]''\
35	'''Mr. B:''' Ohh, now look what you've done, you made me wet myself!\
36	''[Sector V stares in astonishment and disgust]''
37	* PreMortemOneLiner:
38	-->'''Mr. B:''' I... AM... NOT... A... BABY!!\
39	'''Numbuh 1:''' You are now.\
40	''[Mr. B is hit with his baby-fying ray]''
41	* RaiseHimRightThisTime: Once Mr. B is changed into a ''real'' baby by his own baby ray, the KND are at a loss of what to do with him. His clients (who are really his mother and father) tell the kids they'll take it from here and decide they'll use the opportunity to bring up their son to be a nicer person this time around.
42	* SequelHook: Numbuh 1 decides the age-changing device is of no concern and tosses it out the window. But when the DCFDTL pick up the device and laugh ominously, it sets up the season 1 finale.
43	* TakenDuringTheEnding: After stopping Mr. B from turning everyone into babies using his [[FountainOfYouth Age Cigar]], Numbuh One takes the cigar and throws it out the window, believing it's no concern to them. Unfortunately, the Delightful Children From Down The Lane find the cigar on the ground, pick it up and start laughing evilly once it's in their hands.
44	* TemptingFate: Numbuh 1 questions who would want an age changing device and tosses it to the window. Let's just say he’s going to ''regret'' this in a few episodes.
